Ephemeris
Ephemeris provides dignity and relationship calculations around the existing swe4r
binding to the open source Swiss Ephemeris.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'ephemeris'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install ephemeris
Usage
Ephemeris::Zodiac::Aspect
provides multiple modules (Conjunction
, Opposition
, Square
, Trine
, Sextile
) which can be used to produce boolean results on the relationship between planets.
Ephemeris::Zodiac::Dignity
provides boolean results for basic essential dignities (exaltation, domicile, detriment, fall) and (IMHO) and unreliable representation of triplicity. Decanate dignities are not represented (yet).
All methods expect at least one Ephemeris::Planet
instance (Hellenistic planets supported; no outer planets or small bodies); obviously, aspect queries will expect two.
TODO List
- Better triplicity API
- Decans in dignity API
- Generic queries like
::dignified?
or ::afflicted?
