Swap Charts
When working with bi-wheels, tri-wheels, and quad-wheels, this feature exchanges the innermost wheel and the second wheel positions so that the chart displayed in the wheel next to the center wheel is moved to the center.
|
|
|
 |

|
Center Aspects
Display aspects in the center of the chart wheel. Aspects display in all wheels except the equal-house standard wheel.

Helio Chart
Heliocentric chart wheel will be calculated using the selected Current Chart.
|
|
|
 |

|
Local Space
The Local Space technique processes your chart at any location into a map of the 360 degrees of horizon surrounding that location. Your birth planets are projected using azimuth and altitude instead of the zodiac's longitude and ecliptic latitude.
|
|
|
 |

|
90º Dial
The 90° Dial applies direct arcs to a natal chart. The dial has a 360° wheel in the center which shows the normal planet placements. The outer two rings are divided into 90°.
|
|
|
 |

|
Astro Clock
The chart wheel, which is essentially a transit chart, shows the Zodiacal positions of the planets from the vantage point of the Current Place. These positions are updated at the frequency you choose, from 1 seconds to 15 minutes.

Aspects list box
The Aspects Toolbox gives a list of the aspects in the current chart. Click on an aspect and it will be highlighted in the wheel and pop up an interpretation.
Sort the aspects by planetary pairs, orb from exact, aspect types, angular separation, applying and separating, planets, aspects, and patterns found.
Select an aspect and press the History button to see when these two planets formed aspects in the past by transit, progression, or direction.
For bi-wheels, you can select either chart or both charts to see the aspects between them, giving you a quick overview of transits or progressions or synastry aspects.

 |

|
Synastry
A quick guide to the major interactions between two charts, it lists interaspects between the charts, midpoint contacts for the Sun/Moon and Venus/Mars. Aspects are listed by planet, in a traditional aspect grid, and a list with orbs of separation and the houses that are linked by the aspect.
|
|
|
 |

|
Current Date Control
Adjust the date and time of the outer charts, stepping them forward or backward by any time interval, or use the animate buttons to watch transits and progressions and directions move around the natal chart.
Quickly jump to the next or previous lunar or solar return, or new moon or full moon.
Advance any of the major planets to any of the four angles to find critical times through the day for electional or predictive work.

|
Arabic Parts
Lists the positions of 131 Arabic parts, giving the longitude, the formula, and the house it is found in. Clicking on a part will show where it is found in the chart wheel.

Time*Scan
See a time line with the major aspects, ingresses, planetary hours, angle transits, void of course times, and the planets changing house positions. Set it for lengths from three days up to twenty-one years.
Click a button to change from scan view to a list view.

Star*Type Pattern
Your StarType StarType is the whole-chart pattern that dominates your heliocentric chart. This gives extensive interpretive text by Michael Erlewine who has been studying them for forty years, as well as an illustrated symbol he designed to make it simple to comprehend and remember the core idea of each StarType.

|
Around the Wheel
Pick any planet to see where it is in its current cycle around the chart wheel using transit, progressed, of directed motion. Gives a list of major aspects for the selected planet leading up to the present and going into the future. Pick any and look at a pop up chart wheel to see what was happening. Quickly puts current aspects into perspective and the proper time frame.

 |

|
Planetary Hours
A list of the beginning times of each planetary hour for the current day. Planetary hours were used to name the days of the week and have been observed, in an unbroken stream, since before 300 BC.
|
|
|
 |

|
Midpoints
Pop up a list of the chart's midpoints with sign and house position that can be sorted by planets or by position. Clicking on a midpoint will show the midpoint in the wheel and pop up keywords identifying the nature of the midpoint.
|
|
|
 |

|
Phase Chart
Redraw the chart according to the phase angle between each planetary pair. A technique developed by Michael Erlewine, it gives a unique chart for each planet that provides insight on how that planet relates to all of the others.
