An everyday AI · with a memory
Astrael is an AI company. The product is an everyday AI assistant — search, drafting, planning, reminders — with a quieter reflective side drawn from tarot, BaZi, astrology and other traditions, read through psychology, never as prediction. Same Astrael across both, same memory.
Astrael is not a GPT wrapper
Astrael-1 is an AI system designed specifically for divination and self-reflection. It is built in three layers: (1) our own divination compute pipeline — real astronomical ephemerides, the Chinese solar-term calendar, tarot deck logic, and I Ching hexagram casting all run on our servers; (2) a dual-engine model layer — the Claude large-model family (Sonnet 4.6 · Opus 4.7 · Haiku 4.5) as our partner backbone, plus our own Astrael-1 LoRA fine-tune series, trained on leading open-source foundation models with our bilingual divination corpus. A router dispatches each task to the model best suited for it — Astrael-1 leads on Chinese cultural-language tasks where 命理语感 matters most, Claude leads on long-form synthesis; (3) a system-prompt and persistent-memory layer refined over thousands of internal iterations so the model remembers you, refuses out-of-bounds requests, and speaks in restrained poetic language.
Real ephemeris, solar terms, deck logic, hexagram casts — all computed server-side, not guessed by an LLM.
Claude family + our own Astrael-1 LoRA · the router sends each task to whichever serves it best — Astrael-1 for Chinese 命理 nuance, Claude for long-form synthesis.
Your charts, conversations and reflections live in our Postgres with row-level security. They are never used to train any third-party model.
A room where East and West can both sit down
Astrael holds eight traditions in serious balance — tarot, Western astrology, BaZi, Zi Wei, I Ching, numerology, the zodiacs, dream interpretation. None of them are decoration. Our system prompts and retrieval corpus reference the actual primary sources behind each — Waite-Smith (1909), Ptolemy (~150 CE), Xu Ziping (~960 CE), Wilhelm’s I Ching (1923) — so the AI speaks the language of the canon, then translates it into modern psychology.
A tool for reflection, not for prediction
Carl Jung wrote in 1948 that astrology “represents the sum of all the psychological knowledge of antiquity.” He cast charts for patients for 70 years — never to predict, always to help people see what they already felt but couldn’t yet name. Astrael uses charts the same way. We won’t tell you whether you’ll get the promotion. We’ll help you see why the question is haunting you. The card is a mirror. The decision is always yours.
Honest about our limits
Astrael is not medical care, not legal advice, not financial counsel. We won’t tell you whether to sign the contract, buy the stock, or end the relationship. Any divination service that claims to predict your future is lying — we won’t. The AI can be wrong. Sometimes our reading model produces sentences that sound right but are actually generic — we train against this, but your own judgement always matters more. If you’re in crisis, please reach a local mental-health hotline. Astrael is not a crisis service.
Anyone still asking at 3am
We built Astrael for people who can’t stop asking — for people who grew up by a grandmother’s stove watching her read palms, for people who heard a relative talk about BaZi over dinner, and for people who pulled their first tarot card and felt “there’s something here.” East and West are both welcome. English and Chinese are both native. No dogma, no fortune-telling sales pitch. If you’re just curious about why you are the way you are, we’d like to sit with you while you look.
