Directed profections?

Is there an option to do 'directed' profections?

I've been trying to look at the attached chart using your software, by clicking on Year 13/06/2020 - Month 13/10/2020 - Day 03/11/2020. But I'm getting a different chart for this day so I assume I've done it wrong.

Thanks, Jean, it's worked, albeit a couple of degrees difference. The Asc is at 14°19 Scorpio and the Moon is at 5°36 Pisces. I'm assuming this is just due to different software calculations?

Should I be using the 'one-degree' selection?

I have yes, but I'm just not familiar with some of the divisions. Does the "lifetime directions and progression" tutorial video have information on this module?

I'll play around with it anyway and test them out.

The module is mostly Ed's work, maybe he'll see this and answer you.

Ed I now need help with the monthly profections, as when I click on the year, and then the month, and click calculate chart, it still only shows the yearly profected chart. Is it possible for a monthly profection chart to be calculated?

Hi there - I am working on a modest update of the profections module, to include a classical wheel showing the annual and monthly profections.

The inner wheel is the natal chart; the middle wheel the annual profection; and the outer wheel is the monthly profection.

The following chart is for Salman Rushdie, for 2022 and the current month.

Full Profected and Monthly Profected Charts That Can Be Saved and Displayed.
« Reply #14 on: December 08, 2023, 09:43:11 PM »
Hi Ed and Jean,

Abu Mashar places enormous importance on profections, including monthly ones. And Medieval astrologers like Schoener and others always looked where the profected Asc or Moon falls in the SR chart.

PlanetDance offers profections with the SR outside. I use this feature all the time. However, it is incomplete. I would very much like to have full profected and monthly profected charts in Medieval Forecasting Methods, with the user being able to save these charts and display them in a Bi Wheel or Tri Wheel.

Please take a look at the attached file Novak Djokovic nativity with full profections outside - 12th place year.

Starting with Novak Djokovic nativity with full profections outside - 12th place year (say 2022 in this case). All placements advance by 12 signs. By having such a full profection wheel with the nativity outside, the user will be able to immediately see that Mars hands over/distributes to the Sun this year; the Sun and Mercury hand over to Venus; Venus hands over to Jupiter and the Moon; Jupiter and the Moon hand over to the the Lot of Fortune, etc. It would be great to have an option of saving this wheel and displaying in in a Bi Wheel or Tri Wheel.

Next, monthly profections.

Please take a look at Novak Djokovic 12th place year full chart - month 1 too - single chart. The (single) profection wheel is of course also month 1 of any profected year. In single monthly profection charts, I suggest having the SR displayed outside, not the nativity, unlike the monthly revolution charts.

Incorporating these features in Planetdance would be fantastic. This is because it would allow the practitioner and astrologer to follow Abu Mashar' instructions, namely using the natal, profected and SR Asc, Lot of Fortune, for each of the 12 months and how the rulers of the houses in each scheme are configured.


I have made charts for profected month 2 and profected month 3 and have attached them:

Novak Djokovic 12th place year, profected month 2

Novak Djokovic 12th place year, profected month 3


As far as I know, no traditional astrological software offers this. Thank you for your consideration.
