I have came across an intriguing site about forensic astrology. According to the website, forensic astrology is the art of determining the nature of events as they occurred in unsolved crimes and missing persons cases by combining Horary and Birth Charts. I have almost 30 years of forensic and general astrology experience.
The blog’s astrologer (whose name I couldn’t find) gives an explanation for how they came to utilize astrology in this way:

How do I track down my MC?
Look for a vertical line at the top of your natal chart with a small “MC” above it to learn your personal midheaven astrological sign. This is short for medium coeli, which means “middle of the sky” in Latin, and it denotes the zodiac sign that was directly overhead (or midheaven) when you were born.
In astrology, how do you interpret Death?
Determine whether or if your client is emotionally and psychically mature enough to handle death-related knowledge. Some people who hear death forecasts “lose nearly all interest in life and expect to die, and some do,” according to the In Plain Sight website. They all die, whether they believe in black magic (a “death hex”) or that their deaths are predetermined by the stars. As previously indicated, practitioners bear a great deal of responsibility for preventing accidental injury to their customers, and, as previously stated, forecasting death is becoming less popular among astrologers.
Understand the relationship between the planets and death, as well as the various sorts of death. All planets play a role in predicting death in an astrology chart, according to the Find Your Fate website. Saturn is associated with protracted and drawn-out deaths, but it can also indicate a long and uneventful life. Hades may play a role in predicting the death of people who suffer from chronic illnesses. The planets can also indicate sudden deaths: Uranus is associated with surgical deaths, Neptune with water and drug-related deaths, and Pluto with rapid and violent deaths. In predicting a death aspect, Mars is considered a “trigger,” whereas Jupiter and Venus are both commonly present. To comprehend the influences of the planets on death, the astrologer must analyze the full chart.
Depending on whether planets traditionally considered benefic (positive) or malefic (negative) are present in a person’s chart, the eighth house is typically associated with the death aspect. There are two types of designations: weak and strong. Venus (weak) and Jupiter (strong) are the benefic planets (strong). Mars (weak) and Saturn (malefic) are the malefic planets (strong). The eighth house is influenced by more than just the planets. The activation of the death aspect can also be indicated by the solar return, progressions, and directions. The two malefic houses (sixth and twelfth), as well as the fourth house, are likely to be active after the eighth house is activated (the house of endings).
Recognize that “death energy” is not the same as “death.” If this era is just depicting a period of chaotic change in a person’s chart, it may be important to investigate further. While the preceding planets and houses may imply that there is a lot of death energy in an individual’s chart at a certain point in time, the time and place of death is not determined. A lot depends on the expectations and behaviors of the individual. Depending on the client’s choices towards that energy and its use, that person may survive beyond the period of strong death energy, sometimes for a long time in good health.
In astrology, what does MC stand for?
The point on your natal chart that represents your professional success and public image is your midheaven sign (also known as Medium Coeli or MC).
What is the best way to interpret a horary chart?
Horary as a system of divination is based on astrological ideas and applications that are often unique to the branch, but are consistent with broader astrological assertions. The moon’s location and aspects are quite important. The ruler of the sign the first house cusp falls on in the horoscope represents the person asking the question, or querent. In comparison to other branches of astrology, planetary aspects to the house cusps are given greater weight (although it is the planetary rulers of the houses in question that take precedence in analysis). The lunar nodes, planetary antiscia, fixed stars, and Arabic parts are also important elements in horary astrology.
A horary chart is typically read by first assigning the subject being inquired about, the quesited, to a specific house in the chart. The sixth house, for example, would be symbolized by the question “Where is my lost dog?” because it is the house that oversees little animals (traditionally, smaller than a goat). The sixth house’s house cusp will be in a specific sign, such as Libra. Because Venus rules Libra, the significator of the lost dog is Venus. The position of Venus in the horoscope will reveal information about the animal’s health, while its position in the horoscope will reveal information about its location.
What is the role of a forensic astronomer?
Astronomy, the scientific study of celestial objects, is used in forensic astronomy to identify the appearance of the sky at specific times in the past.
Which home represents death?
For the purposes of prognostication and event scheduling, modern Hindu astrology favors the use of the Vimshottari dasha system in conjunction with the Gochara system. It’s difficult to figure out how long you’ll live and when you’ll die. The Mrityu-bhava or House of Death, according to Parasara, is the 8th house counted from the house held by Saturn at the moment of birth. Add up the number of Rekhas (malefic points) contributed by Saturn in the houses from the lagna to the house occupied by Saturn, and this figure will indicate the age at which the native will face adversity; add up the rekhas contributed by Saturn from the house occupied by Saturn to the lagna, and this figure will indicate the age at which the native will face the most severe physical adversity, and even death if the maraka-dasha is active. Alternatively, multiply the number of rekhas contributed by Saturn in the houses from the house occupied by it to the Mrityu-bhava, multiply this figure by the Yoga-pinda, and divide by 27; the remainder will indicate the nakshatra transiting which or the trine nakshatra therefrom Saturn will cause death, or add the number of rekhas contributed by Saturn in the houses from the house occupied by it to the Mrityu-bhava
“Death will take place in regions identical to the rasi occupied by the lord of the navamsa, in which birth falls,” writes Varahamihira in his Brihat Jataka. Conjunctions and planetary aspects must be used to describe additional features or specialties. The unrisen number of navamsas in the birth must be used to determine the time of death. If it is aspected by the birth lord, the time must be doubled; if it is aspected by benefics, the time must be trebled.
In Chapter XXXII St.116-118, Narayanan Nambutiri, the author of Prasna Marga, who follows Varahamihira, states that first total the bindus (before reduction) in Saturn’s Ashtakavarga from the lagna to the sign occupied by Saturn; and from the sign occupied by Saturn to the lagna, these two numbers will indicate the age when the native will be attacked by disease or misfortune; and the total of If the age represented by these three digits corresponds with the end or beginning of a malefic dasha, death may occur. When Saturn transits the nakshatra represented by the remainder or trinal nakshatra, death may occur. Multiply the Sodya Pinda of Saturn by the bindus in the 8th house from Saturn in his own Ashtakavarga, divide the product by 27; when Saturn transits the nakshatra represented by the remainder or trinal nakshatra, death may occur. Multiply the bindus in the sign occupied by Jupiter or the Sun in Saturn’s Ashtakavarga by Saturn’s Sodya Pinda and divide by 12, the result is the sign Jupiter or the Sun was transiting at the moment of death.
What if the 8th house is vacant?
Astrology’s Empty 8th House Even though it is an unlucky house, it does not create any trouble while it is vacant. Instead, the impacts could be beneficial. In astrology, an empty 8th house indicates that the natives will not be involved in any accidents. It also implies that the locals will be creative.
How can a horoscope predict the death of a father?
The 4th house ruler’s period can result in the death of a person’s parent. It is the seventh house, counting from the tenth. The father’s house is on the tenth floor. The era of the ruler of the 11th house can also be utilized to predict the biological father’s death. (Some regard the 9th house to be the father’s house, but I’ve discovered that it’s more appropriate for father figures, teachers, Guru/second-father/spiritual-father, ancestors, patrons, and so on.) The biological father is more visible in the tenth house).
In astrology, what does AC stand for?
The angles are normally positioned at 3,6,9, and 12 o’clock; but, depending on where you were born, the chart circle may appear to be a little less centred.
The Ascendant (also known as the ascendant, ascendant sign, or rising sign) divides the chart in half horizontally and reaches over to the Descendant (DC or DSC) and depicts Self vs. Other, or how you balance your need to individuate with working with others.
The Mid-Heaven (also known as Medium Coeli or MC) indicates your personal integration vs. social function, or how your home base supports your professional expression, and divides the chart in half vertically down to the Immum Coeli (also known as IC or nadir).
Each angle point (AC, IC, DC, and MC) reflects a different part of your life, and the sign each angle is in reveals something about you.
