Our Commitment to Accessibility
At My Medicine Advisor Astrology, accessibility is not an afterthought — it is the foundation of our mission. We believe that astrology belongs to everyone, regardless of their abilities, age, location, or the devices they use. Our goal is to make our astrology tools — including daily horoscopes, natal charts, compatibility calculators, tarot readings, moon sign finders, and 40+ other interactive features — accessible to billions of people worldwide.
We recognize that over 1.3 billion people globally live with some form of disability (WHO, 2023). Many websites unintentionally exclude users with vision, hearing, motor, or cognitive impairments. We are committed to removing these barriers by following international standards such as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 AA, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Section 508 (U.S. federal law), the European Accessibility Act, and India’s Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act combined with the DPDP (Digital Personal Data Protection) Act of 2023.
This Accessibility Statement outlines our approach, progress, and long-term vision for building the world’s most inclusive astrology platform.
Why Accessibility in Astrology Matters
Astrology connects people across cultures, beliefs, and generations. But if our tools are not accessible, entire groups of people are excluded from participating. Imagine someone with low vision who cannot read a zodiac chart, or a hearing-impaired user unable to follow a video explanation. By removing barriers, we ensure astrology becomes a truly universal language.
Accessibility also drives trust, loyalty, and global reach. Users prefer websites that respect inclusivity and make them feel valued. Our mission is not only to attract billions of pageviews but to ensure that every single user feels seen, heard, and included.
Our Global Accessibility Philosophy
We follow three principles:
- Inclusivity: Every tool must be designed for all users.
- Equity: Everyone deserves the same access to astrological knowledge.
- Sustainability: Accessibility is a continuous journey, not a one-time effort.
We embed accessibility in our design, code, and editorial workflows.
