Overview

Destiny is the Claude Code plugin that provides a real fortune reading based on the classical East Asian astrology system.

Usage

  • Type /destiny to see today’s destiny.
  • Enter your birthday once; thereafter, /destiny will give you today’s reading at any time.

How It Works

Data Layer

The numbers—your eight‑character birth chart, today’s day pillar, the hexagram for the moment, and five‑element relationships—are computed by a Python script. The same person on the same day will always receive identical output, which can be verified against any traditional calendar source.

Prose Layer

The prose—today’s stars, character sketch, life arc, and advice—is written by Claude, applying centuries‑old reading conventions to the fixed data. This ensures the horoscope is not an LLM‑hallucinated creation.

Community

If you have fun with it, a star would mean a lot.
