Editorial standards

Astrology is sensitive content. Read often during hard moments, dismissed by readers who think it’s harmless when done well — and damaging when done badly. These are the lines the studio holds itself to, on every page, in every language.

WCAG 2.2 AA · in-place corrections · 5 languages

What we do not do

  • We do not predict specific life events. No deaths, no accidents, no break-up dates, no lottery numbers.
  • We do not claim empirical predictive accuracy. Astrology is a symbolic and interpretive tradition; we present it that way.
  • We do not use fear-based framing — no “warnings,” no scarcity, no language designed to push you into a paid product through anxiety.
  • We do not give individualized financial, legal, medical, or psychiatric advice. The product is not a substitute for a professional in any of those fields.

What we do

  • We present classical astrological tradition (Hellenistic, traditional, modern psychological) with attribution where a delineation traces to a specific source.
  • We mark interpretive prose visibly as interpretation, and we distinguish it from computed facts (planetary positions, aspects, house cusps) which are presented as facts.
  • We write in the language of the page — Spanish prose for Spanish charts, German prose for German charts. No machine-translated horoscope soup.
  • We invite disagreement. Every chart page has a contact link, and editorial feedback gets read by the person who wrote the prose.

01Corrections policy

When we find or are told about an error — a typo, a mistranslated delineation, a wrong year on a citation, a planetary glyph rendered upside-down — we correct it in place on the page where it appeared. The page gets a small footer note stating what was corrected and the date of the correction. We do not silently rewrite history.

For factual errors in computed output (a chart drawn with the wrong house system, an aspect computed against an outdated ephemeris), we issue an updated chart URL and link the corrected version from the original. Email [email protected] or use the in-page Contact link to report any error you find.

02Accessibility

We target WCAG 2.2 AA across the site. Charts are rendered as SVG with proper text alternatives — every glyph has an aria-label naming the planet, sign, or house in the page’s language, so screen readers can read a natal chart from top to bottom without a separate description block.

Voice mode (text-to-speech delivery of interpretive prose and chat responses) is available on the paid tier and supports the same five languages as the written interface. Keyboard navigation is supported throughout — the focus ring is not styled away anywhere.

Color contrast is checked against the AA threshold in both the dark theme (default) and the light theme. If you encounter a screen, chart, or page where this fails, that is a bug — please report it and we will fix it.

03Who this is for

Astrolog is written for adults who are curious about classical astrology as a symbolic, reflective practice. It works well as a tool for self-reflection, journaling, relationship language, and learning the craft. It is read by hobbyists, by working astrologers using it as a calculation backend, and by readers who simply enjoy a clean chart.

It is not a substitute for therapy, legal counsel, medical advice, or financial planning. If you are reading the site during a crisis — please contact a professional in the right field for what you are facing. Astrology, done well, can be a useful lens; it cannot replace the people who are trained to help.
