| Now the moon is almost hidden The stars are beginning to hide The fortunetelling lady Has even taken all her things inside ~Bob Dylan, Desolation Row Divination Row Highlights: ASTRONOMY/ASTROLOGY •Determine geocentric positions of nine major celestials, including retrograde conditions, for any date, time and location from years 0-3000 with to-the-minute accuracy. •Determine moon (Selûne) age, phase, magnitude and lunar node positions. •Determine comet K’thoutek’s position and track its approach to the Sun (perihelion). •Determine positions for the 12 Houses of Heaven, as well the 27 Mansions of Moon. •Determine 5 major planetary aspects (conjunction, opposition, trine, square and sextile). •Determine the essential dignity of a celestial (natural rulership, exaltation, accidental rulership, triplicity, detriment or fall). •Signal astronomical events (included: solar and lunar eclipses, full and new moons, celestial retrogrades, K'thoutek perihelion, as well grand and great conjunctions.) •Craft or have created various ‘intelligent’ charts: natal, quest, and both composite and mean synastric (compatibility). •Determine 14 Greek/Hermetic Lots (Arabic Parts), such as Lot of Fortune, based on chart sect (diurnal or nocturnal). •Determine both elemental (fire-earth-air-water) and mode of activity (fixed-cardinal-mutable) makeup for any given chart. •Receive an in-depth natal, synastric, or quest reading of all charts created. •Purchase an intelligent newsletter (currently updated hourly) offering dynamic advice for the adventurer. •Purchase custom items which hone their powers from their parent celestial(s). GEOMANCY •Cast any one of 64,000 possible geomantic tableaus. •Actively explore the geomantic figures cast as areas within the 12 Houses of Heaven. NUMEROLOGY •Receive interpretations of Destiny, Life Path, Soul Urge, Dream and Nature (Day) numbers, based on player name and determined birth date. I CHING •Cast 1 of 64 I Ching Hexagrams using the “Three Coin Method”, with alternate hexagrams (if yin or yang are ‘old’ and ‘changing’) included. PUZZLES •Unlock a magic square. •Test your memory with Simon. Note: The astronomy/astrology portion uses Realmspace nomenclature, but our solar system's orbital elements. With this current approach, one can create a truly personalized birth chart by simply entering their birth details. Enter the standard local time (adjusted for Daylight Savings, if neccessary) of your birth, with location, to compute your personal natal (birth) chart. This module is intended to give builders robust, interlinked, genuine divinations, which I believe can be easily modified to fit either single or multiplayer campaigns, as well persistent worlds. I believe these systems can be expanded and interlinked with others: forges, custom spells, deities, etc. I welcome any feedback or collaborative undertakings. My plans are to port at least a portion over to NWN2 for use in an upcoming campaign, which will perhaps emphasize more aspects of Vedic astrology. Contact me through the link provided. Thanks for the look. Note to builders: Custom Tokens #100-113 are assigned in the astrolabe conversation. They are reassigned throughout the chart, reading and newsletter conversations. #114-127 are assigned to the journal. (“Your Birth Chart”) #201-205 are assigned to the journal.
