Coverage and scope

RoxyAPI computes deterministic systems from a birth moment, a date, or a question, and serves all of them on one key. This page is the boundary. It says which systems are served, which are not, and what to call when the answer is no.

For the catalog of what IS served, start at the Introduction or open the API reference.

Why a system may be absent

There are two reasons, and they are not interchangeable.

It is licensed. Some modern systems are copyrighted works owned by a living author or a publisher, and are licensed only through that publisher. RoxyAPI does not serve those, and does not reproduce their terminology, their naming layers, or their published text. Clean commercial licensing is something every customer gets in writing, so it has to hold in both directions.

It is not built. Some traditional systems carry no licensing question and are simply not in the catalog today. Ayurveda, chakra systems, runes and the Mayan calendar sit here. Absence is a catalog fact and nothing more.

Gene Keys

RoxyAPI does not serve Gene Keys.

Gene Keys is a copyrighted body of work by Richard Rudd, published by Gene Keys Publishing Ltd, and the name is a registered trademark. The published terms allow commercial use of the material only under a formal licence, and the licences on offer cover teaching and referral rather than redistribution through software. No RoxyAPI endpoint returns a hologenetic profile, the Shadow, Gift and Siddhi naming, the spheres, or the sequences.

What is computable is the layer underneath, and RoxyAPI already returns it in full.

The hexagram layer underneath

Gene Keys, Human Design and the I Ching all read the same 64 hexagram wheel. A profile in any of them is built from two moments, the birth itself and a design moment on the 88 degree solar arc before it, and every activation lands on a numbered hexagram and one of its six lines. The numbering is shared: key 61 is gate 61 is hexagram 61.

RoxyAPI computes that layer with Roxy Ephemeris, verified against NASA JPL Horizons.

curl -X POST https://roxyapi.com/api/v2/human-design/bodygraph \
  -H "X-API-Key: $ROXYAPI_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"date":"1990-01-15","time":"14:30","timezone":"Asia/Kolkata"}'

Every entry in gates carries the planet, the chart side, the gate, the line, and the matching hexagram:

{
  "planet": "Sun",
  "side": "personality",
  "gate": 61,
  "line": 5,
  "gateName": "Mystery",
  "ichingHexagram": { "number": 61, "english": "Inner Truth" }
}

GET /iching/hexagrams/61 then returns that hexagram as a full reading: the Chinese name, both trigrams, the judgment, the image, and all six changing lines. Together the two calls give you the numbered skeleton a reader is looking at, carrying traditional I Ching meaning rather than a licensed naming layer.
