Editorial policy
This page explains how the Astrology Workbench produces content, how it is reviewed, which sources we cite, and how we handle errors and boundaries. Articles, calendars and page copy on the site follow the same editorial standards.
How content is produced
Articles are original work by the editorial team: we set the topic and outline first, then write from sources. AI is used only to assist drafting and organizing material; an editor checks facts, rules and wording passage by passage before publication. We do not republish, rewrite or recycle other sites' content.
Astrological data and sources
Calculated data such as planetary positions, houses and aspects comes from the Swiss Ephemeris, computed locally in your browser and open to verification. Methods and terminology draw on classical astrology literature (such as Ptolemy's Tetrabiblos) and publicly available authoritative ephemerides and progression references. Articles state the method used and its limits, keeping "computed" and "interpreted" apart.
Layers of fact, rule and inference
Content is separated into three marked layers: calculated facts (positions, aspect degrees, reproducible), astrological rules (the accepted interpretive tradition within a given system, with sources noted), and conditional inference (personalized interpretation written in conditional terms, never as a settled conclusion).
Updates and corrections
Every article carries an update date. When a method changes, a rule is revised, or an error is found, we update the content and the date together. If you spot a problem, tell us through the contact page; the editorial team verifies and corrects it.
Limits of use
All content on this site is for cultural, entertainment and self-reflection purposes and does not constitute medical, financial, investment, legal or other professional advice. Judge things in your own context and seek qualified advice for important decisions.
Byline and responsibility
Articles are published under the Astrology Workbench Editorial byline; every piece passes human review before publication, and the editorial team takes responsibility for the content.
FAQ
Is the content written by AI?
AI only assists with drafting and organizing material. The final text is checked passage by passage and reviewed by a human before publication; we do not publish unchecked AI output.
What if I find an error?
Report it through the contact page with the page link and a description. The editorial team verifies the issue, corrects it, and updates the page date.
Can I quote your content?
Yes. Please cite the source and link to the original page, do not quote out of context, and do not present conditional inferences as settled conclusions.
