Electional astrology is a branch of astrology that is used to choose auspicious times to begin new ventures and undertakings based on astrological considerations.
Electional astrology is a variant of inceptional astrology, which is based on the concept that information about the nature and course of new ventures can be determined by examining the alignment of celestial bodies at the moment that they begin.
Electional astrology is a proactive use of inceptional astrology, since it involves deliberately choosing an auspicious inception chart, rather than simply initiating the new venture without taking any astrological considerations into account.
