Aspects & Strength
get_aspects_and_strength
Planetary aspects + 5-factor house strength scores (0-100) + deep retrograde analysis. Returns '{ aspects: [{ from, to, type: OPPOSITION/TRINE/SQUARE/SEXTILE, separationDeg, strength }], houseStrength: { 1..12: { total, aspectScore, occupantScore, lordScore, dignityScore, planetScore } }, retrogradeBlock: { perPlanet, naturalCycleStatus } }'. **Not KP.** The aspects are Parashari graha drishti (Mars 4/8, Jupiter 5/9, Saturn 3/10) and the strength score is built from natural benefic/malefic class, dignity and combustion, which KP judges by none of: it decides on the stellar signification chain and the cuspal sub lord. Reference and cross-system comparison only, never an input to a KP verdict. For full Shadbala (6-fold strength of planets) use 'get_shadbala'. For full Bhava Bala (6-fold strength of houses) use 'get_bhava_bala'.

}Birth data
This tool requires birth data on every call. The MCP server is stateless, so calling set_birth_profile first validates the data and returns the reading plan, but it does not store anything. Repeat the same five fields here.
