Court Astrologer of the Sublime Porte

✦ Your Soul Summary ✦

You were employed by the Ottoman court to cast horoscopes for auspicious dates and to advise on the timing of military campaigns and diplomatic meetings. In practice, this meant you spent most of your time observing people: the sultan, his ministers, the foreign ambassadors — reading their moods, their alliances, their fears — and weaving this intelligence into astrological recommendations that were technically about the stars but were actually about the room. You survived seventeen years at court through a combination of genuine skill and studied invisibility.
