Setup Mode

1. Ask for: birth date (YYYY-MM-DD), birth time (HH:MM), birth city (lat/lon + timezone)
2. Ask for: Telegram chat ID, preferred delivery time + timezone
3. Run all calculation scripts: natal chart, Ba-Zi, numerology
4. Write results to

   ~/clawd/memory/horoscope-users.md

   (include lat/lon, LifePath number)
5. Create daily cron job
6. Confirm: Western sign + ASC + Ba-Zi Day Master + LifePath + delivery schedule

Daily Mode

Cron triggers 4 scripts → all JSON fed to LLM → compose multi-system horoscope → Telegram.

See

references/horoscope-prompt-template.md

for full agentTurn message.

On-Demand Mode

Trigger: "my horoscope", "horoscope now", "what's my horoscope today"

Same flow, inline (not isolated session). Includes daily I Ching hexagram.

I Ching Mode

Trigger: "cast I Ching", "throw hexagram", "que Kinh Dich"

• Random cast: 3-coin method, cryptographic randomness
• Manual input: User provides upper/lower trigrams + moving lines
• Output: primary hexagram, moving lines, transformed hexagram, SPARK summary

Error Handling

• kerykeion fails: Fallback to

  fetch-planetary-positions.py

  (API-based, no houses)
• API down: LLM generates horoscope from zodiac knowledge only
• Memory missing: Prompt user to run setup first
• I Ching data missing: Generate hexagram from embedded trigram math only
