Forgive the newbie question - but can that be inferred from methods above? Did you ever implement these methods in your code? Do you have a gist you could share?

Sorry for the answer, but I will have a hard time trusting meaning of words in a Astrology website. "Opposite" ? "Conjunc"? Could all have twisted meaning. I have no time to loose here. Usually, this goes into insane and never-ending discussions with people who can't hear explanations. You may find this hard judgement, and you'd be right. Experience matters, sorry. Try to ask questions that are slightly better articulated.
