The Lunar Return horoscope calculates a person's unique and personal astrological report for a chosen month based on birthdate, birthplace and birthtime. By passing the year and month parameters you can request the Lunar Return for any month you like. When omitted, the current month is used.
To generate a Lunar Return Horoscope from the AstroAPI, the system (your implementation) makes a POST-request to the /api/lunarreturn endpoint with the necessary parameters. With correct parameters the AstroAPI will provide a full Lunar Return horoscope in JSON-format + the astrological wheel image url.
