# Aspect Grid (SVG)

`POST /render/aspect-grid`

Triangular aspect matrix — rows × columns = planets, each cell shows aspect glyph + orb. Standard textbook layout.

## Request body

- WheelWestern — Birth data for a single natal chart. Required: date (YYYY-MM-DD), time (HH:mm:ss). Coordinates are latitude and longitude in decimal degrees, plus timezoneOffset in hours from UTC; the short forms lat, lon, lng and tz are rejected with 400 INVALID_FIELD. Omitting the coordinates is not the same as skipping them: houses, angles and everything derived from them are then computed for 0°N 0°E at UTC, which is a wrong answer rather than a neutral default.
