Dignities

Exaltation Degrees, Fall Degrees, Terms, and Faces

Planetary dignities describe where a planet is strong or weak. This page lists exaltation degrees, explains fall degrees, and shows how terms and faces are used in practice.

Dignities in practical terms

  • Domicile / Exaltation: generally strengthen expression.
  • Detriment / Fall: usually reduce stability or ease.
  • Terms / Faces: minor modifiers that refine interpretation.

The app computes dignity layers from curated datasets and applies them consistently across Hours, Advanced, and Election workflows.

Public documentation keeps exact internal weighting and engine-level thresholds intentionally concise.

How to use

Treat dignities as one layer in a full timing judgment together with Moon condition, aspects, and hour/day rulers.
