Solar Return Horoscope

The Solar Return horoscope calculates a person's unique and personal astrological report for the current year based on birthdate, birthplace and birthtime.

Basic Flow

To generate a Solar Return Horoscope from the AstroAPI, the system (your implementation) makes a POST-request to the /api/solarreturn endpoint with the necessary parameters. With correct parameters the AstroAPI will provide a full Solar Return horoscope in JSON-format + the astrological wheel image url.
