# What is the Gonino School of Astrapsychology?

> Astrology read as psychology — "the chart as ontology." A free Placidus natal chart calculator at https://goninoschool.com/natal-chart, and hand-written $50 readings. For reflection, not prediction.

## What does the School read?

The natal chart, treated as the ground-truth ontology of the self. Charts are computed by a deterministic engine (Swiss Ephemeris, Placidus houses — the one system the School reads, planets-only aspects, traditional dispositors), then written in the School's voice.

## What is in a $50 reading? (The Contract)

Every reading satisfies the same consistency contract:

1. **The Fifteen Points** — Ascendant through South Node, every point read through its sign and house: personality, strengths, challenges, shadows.
2. **The Five Tightest Aspects** — both planets placed, and what each aspect modifies, enhances, or challenges.
3. **The Top Three Patterns** — kites, T-squares, grand trines and the rest, read across seven dimensions from ease of life to fate.

**How to request:** email goninocapital@gmail.com with the subject "Natal Reading Request" (the site's Request a Reading button does exactly this). Price: $50 per reading.

## What are the Ten Powers?

Ten agencies move through every chart. Three carry the School's own designations; the rest go by their Roman names. Each has its own page:

| Power | Page |
|---|---|
| Sun | /astrapsychology/sun |
| Moon | /astrapsychology/moon |
| Mercury | /astrapsychology/mercury |
| Venus | /astrapsychology/venus |
| Mars | /astrapsychology/mars |
| Jupiter | /astrapsychology/jupiter |
| Saturn | /astrapsychology/saturn |
| Prometheus (Uranus) | /astrapsychology/uranus |
| Neptune | /astrapsychology/neptune |
| Pluto | /astrapsychology/pluto |

Append `.md` to any page for the Markdown version.

## Is there a free option?

Yes — the [natal chart calculator](https://goninoschool.com/natal-chart) computes your full chart free: placements, Placidus houses, aspects, dispositor tree, elemental balance. Nothing is stored. Agents can compute charts via the API and MCP server documented at [/agents.md](https://goninoschool.com/agents.md).
