Dating Profile Matchmaking: Social and dating applications compare astrological compatibility data across user profiles to spark conversations based on shared sign traits.
Lifestyle App Widgets: Mobile wellness developers display today's reading and daily mood directly on home screen widgets each morning.
Personalized Gift Recommendations: To suggest themed products, gift stores match a shopper's birth sign with associated lucky colors and birthstones.

Questions.

Common questions about the Horoscope API.

Read the docs →

Can I look up a horoscope using a birthdate instead of a zodiac sign?

Yes, on paid plans. You can request a reading by passing a birthdate formatted as YYYY-MM-DD. The API determines the matching zodiac sign and returns the forecast for the day.

How many horoscope lookups does the Free plan cover?

The Free plan covers 100 horoscope lookups per month. Each call costs 2 credits from your monthly allowance of 200 credits. On the Starter plan, you get 100,000 lookups each month, which works out to about $0.30 per 1,000 calls.

Are lucky numbers and compatibility ratings included on the Free plan?

No, lucky numbers and compatibility data are premium features that require a paid subscription. The Free plan returns the primary horoscope forecast text and zodiac name. Upgrading to any paid plan unlocks lucky numbers, lucky times, colors, mood predictions, and sign compatibility.

How frequently is the horoscope reading updated?

Readings update once daily. Each calendar day delivers a fresh horoscope text on every plan, along with new daily attributes including lucky time, lucky color, and mood predictions on paid plans.

Can I fetch horoscopes for yesterday or tomorrow?

Yes, you can fetch yesterday's or tomorrow's horoscope for any zodiac sign using dedicated parameters. Note that accessing past and future readings is a premium capability that requires a paid plan.

Request parameters — GET /v1/horoscope

Sent in the query string. Premium parameters are accepted on every plan but only take effect on plans that include them. Anything not listed here is dropped rather than passed through.

Required

Parameter	Type	Example	Description
`sign`Required	string	`aries`	The zodiac sign for which you want to get the horoscope `ariestaurusgeminicancerleovirgolibrascorpio`+4

Example request

1
2

curl "https://api.apiverve.com/v1/horoscope?sign=aries" \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Authentication

Send your key in the x-api-key header. That is the only auth step — no token exchange, and no per-endpoint scope to configure.

Header	When	Value
`x-api-key`Required	Every request	Your API key. Header names are case-insensitive, so `X-API-Key` is the same header.
`Authorization`Alternate	Instead of the above	`Bearer <key>` — for clients that only expose bearer auth. Resolves to the same account and the same billing.

401 is the only auth verdict

A 401 means the key is missing, invalid or expired. A 403 means the key is valid but not permitted here — blocked by a key restriction or an IP allow-list. Running out of credits is a 429.

Response — GET /v1/horoscope

Every APIVerve endpoint returns the same three top-level keys, so one response handler covers your whole integration: status, error and data. Only data changes shape.

Sample response

{
  "status": "ok",
  "error": null,
  "data": {
    "color": "green",
    "compatibility": [
      "leo",
      "sagittarius"
    ],
    "horoscope": "Today, the celestial alignment initiates a deep dive into your emotional landscapes, prompting you to analyze your hidden sentiments to strengthen existing links and navigate difficulties with loved ones more successfully. Open communication becomes essential, allowing you to gracefully balance individual desires. Financially, shrewd judgments keep a cautious route, reducing unnecessary risks and consolidating existing assets. Pay concentrated consideration not to let minor grievances cloud your judgement, strive to discover common understanding and resolve internal clashes diplomatically to facilitate individual advancement, reinforcing your bonds through vulnerability while navigating the ups and downs of interpersonal relationships cautiously keeping everything in balance.",
    "luckyNumber": 12,
    "luckyTime": "8:00 AM",
    "mood": "excited",
    "sign": "aries",
    "zodiac": {
      "element": "fire",
      "name": "Aries",
      "stone": "bloodstone",
      "symbol": "♈"
    }
  }
}

Response fields

Paths are relative to data. Premium fields are absent rather than zeroed on plans that do not include them, so check for presence instead of comparing to 0.

Field	Type	Example	Description
`color`Premium	string	`"green"`	Lucky color associated with zodiac sign today
`compatibility`Premium	array	`[leo, ...]`	Array of compatible zodiac signs for relationships
`horoscope`	string	`"Today, the celestial alignment initiates a deep dive into your emotional landscapes, prompting you to analyze your hidden sentiments to str…`	Detailed horoscope prediction and guidance text
`luckyNumber`Premium	number	`12`	Lucky number for today based on zodiac
`luckyTime`Premium	string	`"8:00 AM"`	Auspicious time of day for activities (HH:MM AM/PM)
`mood`Premium	string	`"excited"`	Predicted emotional mood for the day
`sign`	string	`"aries"`	Zodiac sign name for the horoscope reading
`zodiac`	object	`{...}`
`element`Premium	string	`"fire"`	Element associated with zodiac sign (fire, earth, air, water)
`name`	string	`"Aries"`	Full name of the zodiac sign with proper capitalization
`stone`Premium	string	`"bloodstone"`	Birthstone or lucky gemstone for zodiac sign
`symbol`Premium	string	`"♈"`	Astrological symbol glyph representing zodiac sign

Response headers

Every response carries your balance, so your own code always knows where it stands without polling anything. All four are exposed to browsers through CORS.

Header	What it carries
`x-api-remaining-credits`	Credits left in the current cycle
`x-api-credits-used`	Credits spent in the current cycle
`x-api-max-credits`	The allowance for the cycle
`x-api-version`	Version of the endpoint that answered

Errors

Read the HTTP status first, then error for the specific reason. The body names the parameter that has to change.

Status	Meaning	What to do
`400`	Input was rejected	Read `error`; it names the parameter that has to change.
`401`	Key missing or invalid	Check the header name and the key value.
`403`	Key valid, but not permitted here	A key restriction or an IP allow-list — never a bad key.
`429`	Rate limited, or out of credits	Read `error` to tell them apart, then back off or top up.

What a call costs — 2 credits per call

Credits are shared across every APIVerve API — one balance, one key, one bill. Failed requests never count against it, so a rejected input costs nothing.

Plan	Per month	Credits	Horoscope calls	Per 1,000 calls
Free	Free	200	100	Free
Starter	$29.99	200,000	100,000	$0.30
Pro	$99.99	1,000,000	500,000	$0.20
Mega	$299.99	4,000,000	2,000,000	$0.15

Calls are what the credits buy at this API's rate — spend them here, on any of the other APIs, or across both. Nothing is reserved per endpoint.
