GnozAstro
Charts, cycles and an astrologer-grade AI — one single practice.
The app of La Méthode de la Licorne (The Unicorn's Method), built for the practising astrologer: the full wheel, every tool, every point — and readings almost no tool in the world can produce. Its doctrine opens to beginners too, through a guided vestibule that says it in plain words.
The argument
Four skies, one reading
Every study — yearly, monthly, natal — and every conversation crosses your birth chart, the moving sky, your secondary progressions and the current solar return, woven into a single dated story.
- The natal chart — who you are: every placement, every aspect, the three Black Moons.
- The transits — what strikes your chart, and when, within ±18 months.
- The progressions — your inner seasons, at the rate of one day per year.
- The solar return — the chart of your year, calculated where you live.
Very few tools in the world can cross all four. GnozAstro does it in every reading.
Two registers
The vestibule and the wheel
GnozAstro is a practitioner's instrument. The guided register is not a lighter version: it is the same doctrine, the same calculations, said in plain words — and the full wheel stays one tap away. On first launch, you choose your register.
Time
The time machine
Play time over your chart: transits, progressions, tri-wheel, solar and lunar returns. The player runs forward, back, faster — 30 day / s — and returns to now with one gesture.
Graphic ephemeris, aspect finder, progressed lunation, rectification: a consulting room's instruments, in your pocket.
What no one else shows
The mirror wheel
The antiscia — the contacts hidden by the solstitial and equinoctial mirrors — drawn on the wheel: amber chords for the secret conjunctions and oppositions, and the whole chart reflected as a ring, where every alignment reads at a glance.

The conversation
An AI that holds your whole sky
The conversation carries all four layers — and answers at any scale, in real time: a pattern of a whole life, this year, this week. It speaks the language of your question, whatever that may be.
From the vestibule, an aspect card opens the chat with the question already written — all that is left is to send it.
The studies
Readings scaled to the case
Natal
The full portrait — every placement, patterns, Black Moons, Sabian degrees — anchored in your present.
Relationship
Six storeys: two full charts, the crossed synastry, and the two charts of the bond — the why and the when.
Yearly
Twelve months as a dated calendar, the four skies crossed — what is coming, and when.
Monthly
The same weave over thirty days, starting on the date you choose.
“A flight of wild geese in the shape of a triangle” Aries 12 — the Sabian image of the exact degree, at every point of the chart
Three faces of one axis
The three Black Moons
The lunar apogee is not calculated in only one way. Three determinations of a single axis, which the doctrine names — and the app carries all three: on the wheel, in every study, in the conversation.
-
The Alicorn
Mean Black Moon — mean apogee
The horn alone, separated from the animal: it gives the direction of the essence, the thread that links the successive forms of a being. It points the course; it does not walk.
-
Athena
True Black Moon — osculating apogee
The call of the living. It moves forward, slows, sometimes retraces its steps, and reveals the form that no longer suffices: instincts, desires, memories. It shows what asks to be born.
-
The Unicorn
Corrected Black Moon — interpolated apogee
The mediation: a direction firm enough not to be lost, carried by a body alive enough not to stiffen. The tuning fork of the soul.
“The Mean Black Moon holds the course. The True Black Moon tests the moment. The Corrected Black Moon seeks the accord.”
The doctrine
La Méthode de la Licorne
GnozAstro does not aggregate horoscopes: the app embodies an original corpus — the three Black Moons and their cross, the Ladder of Hercules, La Méthode de la Licorne — rooted in the legacy of humanistic astrology: the images of Elsie Wheeler, the eight-phase cycle theorised by Dane Rudhyar, the cyclic approach of Alexander Ruperti. The doctrine is read inside the app, at your fingertips, at every point of the wheel.
