This power focuses the intuitive aspects of [[Heightened Senses]], enabling the seer to read more into charts than the average mortal astrologer. By casting a horoscope for a person, group or institution and inspecting the night sky, the seer can gain glimpse of the subject's future.

'''System''': To use this power, the seer needs the appropriate time and place of the subject's birth. For a Cainite, the seer also needs the time and place of the subject's embrace. He can get along without this data if he knows the Cainite extremely well: Given a few decades, he can observe the events of the Cainite's unlife, compare them to the motions of the planets and so deduce the conditions of the character's birth and Embrace.

For a group or institution, the seer needs some other time that serves as a point of origin, and as much other information as he can gather. For instance, if the character cast a horoscope for the United States of America, he would draw horoscope charts for July 4, 1776 (the signing of the Declaration of Independence) and march 4, 1789 (the date Congress declared the Constitution in effect) at Philadelphia in both cases.

''Actually, the declaration was signed on July 1st. The signed copy was published on the 4th. -Jamie''

The seer prepares the relevant charts, then consults the skies in meditation. The power does not work if the seer cannot actually see the heavens: The astrologer watches for shooting stars, clouds, auroras and the way the stars and planets twinkle, as well as the locations of the planets. After an hour's observation, the shape of the target's future comes to the vizier. To determine how much of the future becomes clear, the character rolls Perception + Occult (difficulty 8). For each success rolled, the seer divines one fact about the person or group's most probable future. If the vizier seeks the answer to a particular question, instead of a general forecast, the difficulty rises to 9. Botches result in false revelations. Each success, how ever, do not always provide a time frame. The vizier might see events of the next night, next week, next year...
