Ever has man coveted knowledge, and none more so than that of his fate. Thus did he labor to master the skill of foresight—but initial efforts bore little fruit. That is, until he looked to the stars above, which foretell the coming seasons, and learned to read the heavens.
Though this gift is known today as astrology, the people of Sharlayan saw fit to not only read the stars, but to write their movements as well. By attuning their aetherial energies to that of constellations, they learned to wield magicks with heretofore unseen properties.
Thus was astromancy born—a new form of magick which grants its users power over fate. Employing a star globe and divining deck in their miraculous deeds, fortune always smiles upon these masters of arcana.

Current WIP for updated hotbars in 7.0, focusing on minimising swapping hotbars in combat and keeping visual clarity on relevant buff cooldowns and maximising consistency across all jobs. Bar 1 is for single target, and Bar 2 for AoE.
The Glamour Plate button is being used in place of the newly added skill as needed, and the dye represents potion. Sprint and LB are macroed to L3/R3 respectively.

My astro crosshotbars. The ! macro is "/target <f>" tank macro is "/target <2>" star macros are for giving card to 2, 3 and 4 in party list.
AST WXHB+Expanded
This hotbar is pulled from Gingergaming's channel and is used for myself with some modifications to remove macro usage.
Lv90 AST Controller Layout
This layout focuses healing skills on the LT bars and damaging/buffing skills on the RT bars. Special care is taken to consider how inputs flow into each other. For example, the ally-targeted oGCDs are placed on the D-pad because you will already be using the D-pad to scroll through the party list and select a party member.
Face buttons are more accessible while using the left stick to move, so core GCDs and untargeted card actions are placed there, along with Swiftcast and Sprint.

Noko Steamdeck Astrologian
How I set up my crossbars as a astrologian on steamdeck (Currently level ~65)
I try to play every classes/jobs, thus I tend to reuse same slots for same "functionality" across jobs.

Kreeger's Astrologian
The XHB setup I use for my Astrologian. 1-3 are unique to AST, all else are shared between all jobs. XHB4's LT->RT pane is a selection of emotes. XHB7 is my job selector.

Rainbow Artaku's Astro XHB
I'm a small streamer that loves FFXIV and many other things. The XHBs I publish are solely how I personally like to organize my Hotbars when on the controller! Feel free to use them if you too like them! Some are thrown together and some are planned out.
