Weekly Planner for Astrological Scheduling with AI

Astrological calculation with LLM prompts for any AI platform for accurate and practical weekly planning.

An ordinary to-do list makes an implicit assumption: each item could, in principle, be done at any time, on any day. But astrology gives you the power to assign tasks to times that yield the best outcome. Astrology acknowledges the difference between days. The Moon's progression through signs, void of course periods, and the aspect patterns coloring the week all give one day a different potential from the next.

Until recently, aligning your actual task list to best days meant hiring a professional astrologer, expensve consultations that most people reserve for major life decisions: a wedding date, a business launch, the timing of a surgery. Almost no one can call their astrologer every Sunday evening to ask which day will be the best for a difficult conversation or errands or deep focused productivity. But now the combination of easy astronomical computation and AI model interpretation collapses that cost. You can schedule your tasks with astrological precision at any time at nearly no cost.

AstroPrompt has a Weekly Planner and this tutorial shows you how you can approximate the same result with a popular astrological tool such as Astrolog and any LLM. You'll need more than just an AI platform such as ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini. LLMs are great at interpretations and advice but you'll do more harm than good unless you provide the LLM with accurate astrological data and a suitable prompt.

Given accurate accurate astrological data, an LLM can match any task to the best day for execution. For example, AI may tell you:

  • Put writing, calls, pitches, and decisions on a day with stronger Mercury support.
  • Schedule relationship-building, design review, or social repair when Venus is better placed.
  • Reserve deep work, planning, cleanup, and discipline-heavy tasks for Saturn-supportive days.
  • Delay sensitive conversations when the day shows avoidable friction.
  • Use low-clarity or Moon void periods for maintenance, review, and routine work.

If you're not familar with astrological symbolism, you can instruct the AI (by editing the system prompt) to avoid astrological terms and use non-technical descriptions.

This does not guarantee outcomes but it means your efforts are aligned with better timing. Instead of forcing every task into the same blank calendar grid, you work with the week's actual optimal conditions.

AstroPrompt's Weekly Planner obtains astrological data from Astrolog for a seven-day period and collects the timing data needed for planning: Moon ingresses, mundane aspects, daily aspect patterns, and standout transits to your natal chart. AstroPrompt organizes that data and passes it to the LLM with a prompt focused on day-by-day task allocation rather than general forecasting. The output tells you which days best support each priority and where the week may need caution, flexibility, or lighter expectations.

Before you get started

Weekly Planner is an option in the AstroPrompt navigation bar, and the fastest way to get a result is to use AstroPrompt. The tutorial below explains how to obtain the same result from any LLM yourself. To do it yourself you will need to install Astrolog, write the chart output to a file, and combine the Astrolog dataset with the prompts shown below. AstroPrompt makes the workflow easier: it runs Astrolog automatically, lets you pick from popular LLMs (such as OpenAI GPTs, Claude Opus, or Google Gemini), and streamlines the prompt assembly. For advanced users, AstroPrompt Pro lets you edit the prompts so you can customize tone, interpretation, or output structure. Try AstroPrompt now; it is FREE.

Weekly Planner

The Weekly Planner shows planetary positions at the start of the week, daily exact transits to the natal chart, daily mundane aspects, Moon sign changes, and lunar phases. You can ask the LLM questions about which days are best for which tasks, or ask for a full report that matches your tasks with the week's transit landscape.

How to get an accurate LLM response

AI can't calculate planetary positions accurately or read an ephemeris reliably. To get an accurate and reliable interpretation, you must provide this astrological data:

  • Planetary positions at the start of the week.
  • Daily exact transits for each of the seven days, with times and applying/separating flags.
  • Daily mundane aspects (sky-to-sky aspects affecting everyone) for the same window.
  • Moon sign changes and ingresses across the week.
  • Lunar phase events (New Moon, First Quarter, Full Moon, Last Quarter) within the window.
  • Planetary station events within ±7 days, so the model can flag turning points.
  • The user's task list, included verbatim in the chat input.

Astrolog commands

The AstroPrompt Weekly Planner runs five Astrolog commands.

# Personal transits for one day in the week:
        astrolog -z {tz} -z0 0 \
                 -qa {natal_month} {natal_day} {natal_year} {natal_time} 0 {lon} {lat} \
                 -td {target_month} {target_day} {target_year} -R -RT Moon -C

        # Mundane daily aspects:
        astrolog -q {month} {day} {year} 12:00pm -z {tz} -d -YQ 0

        # Planetary positions snapshot:
        astrolog -q {month} {day} {year} 12:00am -z {tz} -v -YQ 0

        # Lunar phases (month containing the week):
        astrolog -qb {month} 1 {year} 12:00 0 {tz} 0 0 -dm -R0 Sun Moo \
                 -RA0 Con Opp Squ

        # Ephemeris table (planetary stations, ±7-day window):
        astrolog -E ...
  • `-qa` sets the natal chart (with UTC time 0) and -td produces exact transits to it for one target day.
  • `-RT Moon` excludes Moon transits from the personal aspect listing because lunar aspects move too fast for weekly planning.
  • `-R` restricts natal objects to the major planets (asteroids only appear when the user enables minor objects).
  • `-C` includes house cusps so transits to the Ascendant and Midheaven are detected.
  • `-d` outputs daily mundane aspects (planet-to-planet in the sky).
  • `-v` produces the verbose planetary positions list, used for the start-of-week snapshot.
  • `-qb` defines a base chart with location, used as the anchor for the lunar phase calculation.
  • `-dm` produces month aspects, restricted by -R0 Sun Moo -RA0 Con Opp Squ to just the four lunar phases.
  • `-E` produces the monthly ephemeris table, which AstroPrompt parses for retrograde station events.
  • `-YQ 0` disables Astrolog's pagination so the entire output streams cleanly as one dataset.

AstroPrompt runs the personal-transits command once per day in the week, and the outputs are concatenated.

Prompts

Astrological data is combined with a user's prompt to create the context for a question that begins an AI chat. The LLM receives everything (including its responses to previous questions) as a single context block, but it is easier for us if we assemble the context from three specific prompts: a system prompt, a data description prompt, and a user prompt that asks for a report. In AstroPrompt Pro, you can edit and save each of these prompts to customize tone, interpretation, or output structure. For this tutorial, combine each of these prompts with the astrological data and then paste the entire block into the AI chat.

System Prompt

The foundational instruction that sets the AI's overall tone, style, and approach, which applies to every message in the conversation. The default produces balanced, measured analysis. You can change it to anything: terse bullet-point summaries, a specific cultural or traditional framework, a particular language, or even a lengthy style guide that reproduces your own voice for client-facing work. This is the most powerful lever for fundamentally changing the character of the AI's responses.

The system prompt is shared across every AstroPrompt view:

When generating astrological forecasts, do not use rhetorical or
        persuasive devices typical of popular horoscope writing. Avoid inserting
        emotional appeals or literary devices. Avoid the following:

        • Imperatives and exhortative tone (e.g., "Embrace change," "Let go of
          the past," "Surround yourself with warmth")
        • Evocative metaphors and symbolic language (e.g., "personal
          renaissance," "magnetic energy," "mirror of the soul")
        • Overly enthusiastic, poetic, or cute phrasing
        • Vague affirmations or inspirational advice not grounded in planetary
          positions

        Instead, use a neutral, informative tone. Focus on:

        • Relevant planetary influences and their timing
        • Which life areas are affected and how
        • Expected themes based on astrological interpretation
        • Possibility framing using modal verbs (e.g., may, might, could)
          without interpretive flourish
        • Objective language suitable for readers seeking analysis rather than
          affirmation

        Structure any planner forecast by timeline or topic (e.g., career,
        relationships, health).

AstroPrompt adds a terminology directive (advanced or beginner) based on its settings, and the user's task list arrives in the chat input.

Data Description

This prompt tells the AI what the raw astrological data actually represents. This is how the AI understands the underlying dataset. Advanced users can use this to direct the AI's attention toward specific technical elements they care about most.

After assembling the astrological data, AstroPrompt appends a one-sentence description so the model knows what it is reading:

This data contains a weekly astrological transit report showing
        planetary positions and daily exact transits for a 7-day period. Each
        day lists the transiting planet, aspect, natal planet, exact time, and
        whether the aspect is applying or separating. It includes Moon phases,
        Moon sign changes, and house ingresses for the week.

The "applying or separating" hint matters because Astrolog encodes that distinction with + and - symbols, and the model needs to know how to read them.

Full Report Prompt

AstroPrompt provides detailed instructions when a user wants a full report. This is typically the longest prompt and has the greatest single impact on report quality and structure. The default walks the AI through a specific analytical sequence. You can replace this entirely as you wish, for example, to focus the report on career and finance, restructure it around specific techniques, or direct the LLM to use the point of view of a favored lineage or tradition.

The full report prompt structures the week around emotional tone, productivity, key days, and recurring themes:

As a mundane astrologer and psychological astrologer, provide a
        comprehensive weekly planning analysis. Evaluate each day's transits and
        celestial events, noting their likely emotional tone and effects on
        practical productivity. Identify the most significant days of the week
        and explain why. Highlight any patterns or themes that emerge across the
        week. For each day, describe likely mood shifts and outline what to
        expect. Identify influences on work projects, career matters,
        communication, decision-making, relationships, and interpersonal
        dynamics. Note any Moon sign changes and their effects on emotional
        energy. Look at long-term transits and describe how daily exact transits
        interact with the prevailing longer-term transits. Finally, provide a
        summary of the week's overall energy and recommendations for scheduling
        important activities.

The "scheduling important activities" closer is the part that ties the calculated transits to the user's task list, if it is provided. The model will recommend which days fit which tasks based on the known transit landscape, not on generic "best days for new starts" advice.

Unique features of the Weekly Planner prompt

  • The user's task list is editable inside the data pane and travels into the prompt directly, so scheduling output matches real priorities.
  • Personal transits are computed per-day across the week, then concatenated, so each day has its own discrete transit list rather than a smeared aggregate.
  • The Moon is excluded from personal exact transits but tracked separately via lunar phases and sign changes, which is the right resolution for weekly planning.
  • Planetary stations (S/D and S/R) are detected from a ±7-day ephemeris table so turning points within the window are caught.
  • The full report prompt forces an explicit "most significant days" call, which prevents the model from hedging across all seven days equally.
  • The week's mundane aspects are interpreted as a backdrop against which personal transits are evaluated, not as standalone events.
