Overview

AstroWay API is a professional backend for astrology calculations as a service.

760 endpoints powered by Swiss Ephemeris, covering techniques no competitor offers: harmonics, draconic charts, CCG, Gauquelin sectors, full Human Design, rectification.

  1. Astrology app developers (web, mobile) who need precise and diverse calculations without maintaining their own computational infrastructure.
  2. AI companies embedding astrology features: native MCP server for Claude, ChatGPT and other agents.
  3. Professional astrologers building custom tools or client scripts.
  4. Researchers who need programmatic access to calculations for statistical studies.
  5. Content platforms adding astrology features on top of an existing product.
  • Widget horoscopes (“Cancer today”) without backend control: AI interpretations and horoscopes exist (/interpret/*, /horoscope/*), but they’re designed as APIs for developers, not drop-in widgets.
  • Geocoding: the API does not turn a city name into coordinates. You send latitude and longitude, and a 0,0 pair is refused rather than quietly charted for the Gulf of Guinea.
  • A finished product: this is an API and fourteen embeddable widgets, not a chart editor, not an account area for your clients and not billing on your behalf.
  • Free unlimited use: 10,000 credits a month covers a prototype and a small site, and past that it is a paid service.
TechniqueWhy it matters
Harmonic charts (H2–H180)Research astrology (John Addey method)
Draconic chartKarmic / soul astrology
CCG (Cyclo-Carto-Graphy)Progressed astrocartography - Jim Lewis premium technique
Gauquelin sectorsStatistical astrology, academic use
Tertiary progressionsThird type of progressions - niche but valued
Antiscia / contra-antisciaClassical Hellenistic technique - traditional revival
Parallel aspectsDeclination-based aspects - advanced practices
Rectification via APIBirth time correction - extremely high value
Planetary cycles (conjunctions)Mundane astrology - world events
Barbault cyclic indexMundane astrology
Algol minimumFixed star times - electional astrology
Local space linesFeng shui-like directional astrology
Disposition chainsRulership graphs - classical technique
Almuten figurisMedieval technique - traditional revival

2. Swiss Ephemeris precision: same engine as Solar Fire ($495), Kepler ($995), Astro Gold

Section titled “2. Swiss Ephemeris precision: same engine as Solar Fire ($495), Kepler ($995), Astro Gold”

The same Swiss Ephemeris that has powered professional astrologers in Solar Fire, Kepler, Astro Gold and Janus for 30+ years - only as a REST API, with no middleman markup. Precision:

  • Planet positions: ±1 arcsecond vs NASA JPL ephemeris
  • House cusps: ±1 arcminute
  • Validated against Zet 9, Solar Fire (proprietary ephemeris), Astrodienst swetest CGI (Astro.com), Kepler, Astro Gold - discrepancies within method tolerance (≤0.1″).

3. 760 endpoints: deep coverage of Western techniques

Section titled “3. endpoints: deep coverage of Western techniques”

182 compute endpoints for Western astrology (4 Hellenistic schools, modern psychological, evolutionary, cosmobiology) + AI interpretations + full Human Design. Depth instead of spreading thin across dozens of directions.

Calculation and JSON response
  • Calculations happen server-side: nothing to build or ship in your frontend.
  • No server-side state: each request is self-contained. No client data leakage.
  • API keys are bound to plan, rate limit, and daily credit balance. Monitoring via dashboard.
