Using astrology to plan & understand events!
Event astrology, otherwise known as electional or inceptional astrology, allows for someone to look at the energy and outcome of a particular event. This can be used for launching a business, getting married, writing a book, and so much more! While there is no such thing as a perfect event chart, understanding the energy can help you prepare for delays and frustrations; and to know where your strengths are.
For an example of event astrology, let’s look at the event chart of the moment that I began my Tiktok account. Tiktok is my biggest platform with over 50,000 followers, as of the time of writing this, having surpassed my old Youtube by a lot!
I did not know about electional astrology when I created my Tiktok account, but looking back at the inception…it’s certainly an interesting one!
In any event chart, the first thing you want to look at is:
The 1st house
The ruler of the 1st house
The moon
The ruler of the moon
The ruler of the ruler of the 1st house
The chart ruler here is Saturn, albeit in a day chart. Saturn becomes more benefic in a day chart, and it is also in it’s own domicile. This planet is stationed retrograde, perhaps mentioning delays. I did not begin actively using this account until May 2022, which is quite the delay!
Saturn is also co-present with Jupiter, and the energy of Jupiter in the 1st house is somewhat dampened by being in Capricorn. Still, in a day chart, Jupiter is able to bring some kind of luck.
Mars is the most malefic planet and is squaring up with Saturn and Jupiter. That’s not great! But, Mars is in it’s own domicile, and also moving away from the planets: perhaps indicating moving away from the struggles of Mars.
The Sun and Mercury are both in their own domicile. The Sun isn’t as prominent here, chilling in the 8th house, but Mercury is in the house of astrology and divination; the very things I would become known for. Virgo is also known for mysticism, and as my Tiktok expanded I began to describe myself as a mystic advisor.
Venus is not in domicile or exaltation, but it is in a good and angular house, and in mutual reception! In the 7th house, this shows being able to connect with great 1:1 clients, which Tiktok has certainly brought me.
The 1st house concentration shows that Tiktok has been all about me, well, tapping into my starpower…but in Capricorn, it isn’t without delays, struggles, and hard work!
The moon is happy, in mutual reception, in the good and angular 10th house. This inception does have to do with career matters, and having a happy moon there has certainly helped boost my reputation!
Sadly, Mars is being annoying as all h*ll. Squaring up with the 1st and 7th, and opposing the Moon. We do not love to see it. Luckily, the connection with the moon and Venus is pretty loose, but we can’t deny that close square with Saturn.
There have been ups and downs in my time on Tiktok. First, even creating this account was shaking things up. I did not want to do it. I didn’t want to be on Tiktok at all! I thought it was stupid! Second, there have been many videos of mine which attracted absolutely terrible people spewing homophobic and transphobic garbage in the comments.
Does Mars represent me arguing with those people? Absolutely. Did my time on Tiktok improve when I started blocking and moving on? Also, absolutely!
All in all, maybe I could have picked a better election for something this big. I could have done it a day before on a Virgo hour and avoided the Mars opposition with the moon. This electional chart is actually looking pretty sweet!:
But my Tiktok has grown a lot in the time that I’ve used it, and I’m really happy. Thank you for supporting me in any way that you support me!
