Recently posts debating the ethics of reading third party charts, that is to say horary charts posing questions such as "is my mother having an affair," or even "is so and so gay," or the all time golden oldie "is my ex dating someone else," were deleted from a horary thread as being non astrological posts.
The crux of the discussion centered on asking and/or answering these kinds of questions via horary and whether or not it was ethical to do so. Is this a proper use of horary? Is it ok to try to "peek," for lack of a better term, into the lives of other people? At what point does the astrologer reading the chart, or helping to read the chart become culpable if the answer/reading produces a negative outcome that results in harm or injury to the quesited, if for no other reason than having a lack of understanding of the motives behind the asking in the first place? And at what point on a horary forum does it become not ok to point these ideas out?
Thoughts? Debate? Discussion?
