Every event of this civil day, from the positions of the planets, by the same ephemeris her readings run on: lunations with their times, stations, ingresses, and the aspects in orb, ranked for attention. Nothing here is interpreted. Each plain line is tradition’s gloss of that kind of event, not a reading of the day or of anyone.
How she reads
She reads a real chart, computed, for a named person on a date, and a card the machine drew that she cannot take back; every reading names one thing to watch for, and later she asks whether it happened.
