You are the only person to act upon any procs. Macro can't do that.

I'm pretty sure the idea with Balance is that you should be casting Startsurge whenever it's off CD or whenever it procs.
I've got these macros which will attempt to cast Starsurge if it's off CD it will cast, if it's on CD they will just cast either Wrath or Starfire. So when you're spamming Wrath or Starfire and Starsurge procs or comes off CD Starsurge will be cast instead.
#showtooltip Wrath
/castsequence Wrath
/cast Starsurge
#showtooltip Starfire
/castsequence Starfire
/cast Starsurge
Also.. This will cast your trees and start them attacking, gets their DPS up faster.
(However I don't think you should use this as Force of Nature is maybe the weakest lvl 60 talent. And I would suggest Incarnation instead.)
#showtooltip Force of Nature
/cast Force of Nature
/petattack
Another thing is, make sure you're following the stat priority..
Intellect > 15% Spell Hit (Hit | Spirit) > Haste (Breakpoint) > Crit > Mastery
Given normal raid buffs, you'll need 5273 Haste for Moonfire and Sunfire to receive three extra ticks.
Rotation I used for Single Target or Bosses:
Pre-pull:
Place Mushrooms
Astral Communion in time with tanks countdown - Optional
On-pull:
Sunfire
Moonfire
Detonate Mushrooms
Spam SS/Wrath macro until Lunar Eclipse
Lunar Eclipse:
Starfall (Only use this during Lunar Eclipse)
Replace Mushrooms while Starfall active - (I've read the DPS loss from replacing mushrooms may not be worth it any more, unless you can do it while moving or avoiding a mechanic.)
Sunfire
Moonfire
Spam SS/Starfire macro until Solar Eclipse
Solar Elcipse:
Detonate Mushrooms, if replaced.
Sunfire
Moonfire
Spam SS/Wrath macro until Lunar Eclipse
On-Cooldown:
Starsurge (But this is taken care of by the two macros anyway.)
Burn Phase:
Pop any SP trinkets / Int Pots
Celestial Alignment
Incarnation: Chosen of Elune
Lifeblood (If you're a Herber)
Then just repeat Lunar -> Solar -> Lunar, etc.
Notes:
1. These macros are not perfect, I made the to play my OS when I was raiding as Resto. The being said, I still out-DPS'd a couple of Balance Druids in our 25 man team.
2. These macros will not make you a better player.
3. I haven't played Balance since Cata, some of this may have changed a little.
4. During Cata this information increased the DPS of Balance Druids in my guild.

quick question, Does the use of those macros will introduce an unnecessary delay (when SS is not avail.) vs just plain Wrath and Starfire?
