Type in the person’s name and enter their birth date. If you know the birth time, enter that too. If their birth time is unknown, enter 12:00 AM as the birth time. Important note: Click the buttons to access your saved names and places from the Quick List. 2 Birth Place: Type in the birth location like this: Detroit, MI (using comma, then a space, then the state abbreviation or country name). If you have Auto checked, the longitude, latitude, and time zone information will automatically fill in; if not, click the Atlas button to retrieve the birth location values for an accurate chart wheel. 3 Click on the OK button to display the new chart wheel in the main screen. Press F1 to access your WinHStar Express Help File for more in-depth instructions and step-by-step procedures on creating a chart as well as other “How Do I” questions. System Requirements: PC running Windows 98 SE, 2000, NT, XP, or Vista. 128 MB Ram. 120 MB of hard drive space. Printer. 3 Main Menu Descriptions: The main WinHStar Express toolbar appears on the left side of the screen. All program features are accessible from these tool buttons. You can remove the Toolbar (leaving just the wheel) by using the Hide button. Wheel Sizes: Wheels can be based on 1, 2, 3, or 4 charts. Clicking any of the Wheel Size buttons alters the chart input area of the menu to adjust for that sized wheel. For example, click the “ ” button and two chart selection areas open for both charts used in a bi-wheel. Click on the “ ” button and three areas open. The black arrow that points to the right allows you to pick an existing birth chart, input a new chart, or create a transit, progressed, or directed chart. As shown here, the bi-wheel’s top entry area is for the inner “Center” chart wheel. The second area is for the second, outer ring of the bi-wheel (or the middle ring of a tri-wheel). Wheel Styles: The program opens displaying a single wheel using the current day’s chart. This chart can be viewed in four wheel styles by single clicking any of the Wheel Style buttons: House, Unequal, Euro, and Aries. 4 Tools: These powerful chart tools help you explore each wheel. Swap: When working with bi-wheels, tri-wheels, and quad-wheels, this feature exchanges the inner and second wheel positions; the chart displayed in the inner portion of the wheel is moved to the next (outer) ring and the one displayed in the second ring moves to the center of the chart. Cntr (Center Aspects): This feature toggles (on/off) the Aspect lines in the center of the wheel. Helio: The Heliocentric feature switches the selected chart from a geocentric to a heliocentric display. Clock: The AstroHClock displays a chart for the current time. This chart continuously recalculates the displayed wheel at time increments you set (from once every second to every ten minutes). You can watch the planets move through the houses and know just when astrological events occur. Asp (Aspects): This tool provides a variety of Aspect display options, showing aspects in individual charts, or aspects between charts (as exist in a multiple-chart wheel). Aspects can be sorted eight ways: • Planet pairs • Closest Orb • Aspect • Angular Separation • Applying/Separating Aspect • Planets • Aspects • Patterns Clicking an aspect (in the list) temporarily draws thick, bold lines 5 on the chart wheel depicting that aspect. This is a temporary draw to aid in identifying that aspect. Moving an open window or clicking elsewhere removes these lines. Date: The Date feature opens the Date Control dialog, which allows you to change the date and time used for transit, progressed, solar arc, and other secondary charts. You can change the date or time boxes at the top of the window, or by using the blue down arrows. Since you are already on the “Animate” tab, you can also change the date and time in increments with the forward and back buttons. This is also where you create solar and lunar returns, lunations, and angles. To use these features, you must be looking at a transit chart, which you can get by clicking on the bi- wheel button. Returns: This allows you to find the next or last solar or lunar return. Lunations: This allows you to find the next or last full moon, new moon, or lunar and solar eclipses for your current location. Date: This allows you to quickly change the month, day, or year of your chart. Angles: This is a powerful tool that allows you to select a planet and put it on any angle. Because of the rotation of the Earth, every planet hits all the angles once every day. 6 TimeHScan: With the TimeHScan feature, entire search results can be presented onscreen in a graphic time line. Planet aspects appear in the linear graph. Click one to show the date, time, zodiac position, and interpretation for each aspect. Transits- and progressed-to-natal planet house positions appear in the colored bars at the bottom of the scan; these can be clicked to display interpretive text (as well as the transit’s duration). TimeHScan Time Line: Use the moveable time line to quickly and precisely pinpoint aspects every day. TimeHScan List: Click the List button to display the same data in a table format. Click the Print button to print out the complete list of Scan aspects. Data: The Chart Data button consists of 26 screens — 26 different ways to view the chart’s data. The default “Chart Data” view displays the birth data along with the planets’ positions in house and sign and their aspects by closest orb. Among the other Data Views are ones showing Lunar Phase, Aspects Sorts (6), Rulerships, Chart Patterns, Lilly Strengths, Ptolemaic Dignities, and many more. 7 Chart Control: The Chart Control buttons provide a number of chart-related tasks: Print: Creates a PDF of the current chart. Interpret:Opens the Interpretation window. You can choose which planets to look at or print the entire list of interpretations. Reports: If you have Win*Writer Express installed, you can access the Reports from this button. Charts: This opens the Chart Browse dialog screen which lists the saved .qck charts from the selected QuickHFile. Highlight any listed chart to display that chart in the chosen wheel size and wheel style. The 1, 2, 3, 4 buttons refer to the wheel position within a chart wheel (eg: In a quad-wheel, the 1 button = the innermost chart position, the 2 button = the next chart position, moving outwards). Text Interpretations: If you are new to astrology, once you’ve created a chart wheel (or “horoscope” wheel) you will want to know what it means. To start to understand your chart, click on the Interpret button to open the Interpretation dialog screen, which displays text interpretations for each planet-sign position and major aspects in the currently displayed chart wheel. Complete interpretive text is given for natal, transit, synastry, progressed, and directed positions. Use the convenient arrow toggle buttons to quickly advance through each interpretation. Click the Printer button to get a complete PDF report providing either a natal, transit, synastry, progressed, or directed report! Pop-Up Interpretations:: Learning to read a chart has never been easier! Access pop-up interpretations by simply clicking on any planet or house cusp. 8 WinHStar Express Options The Options menu lets you customize your WinHStar Express. By clicking on Options and then on Set Other Options you will be able to customize the following: Aspects: Set orb sizes; Aspects in a set; create new Aspect sets. Atlas Setup: Usually these settings do not need to be changed. If you are having issues with the atlas, make sure you are using Matrix Win-Atlas v2. Logo: Allows you to add your name and address to your charts.

  • The Basis of Symmetrical Astrology
    The Basis of Symmetrical Astrology Overview: Why Symmetrical Astrology? Astrology needs to create its future form. While many astrologers have seized astrology’s history and others have integrated modern psychological forms into the field, the technique for the future growth of astrology needs definition in modern technical terms and methods. Without a new definition and direction, astrology has no future, only a past. Symmetrical Astrology is not a school or the teachings of a specific set of ideas. It is an anchor to ground astrological ideas to a fixed point and this fixed point should allow unlimited development of astrological innovations in all directions. As the future techniques of the regenerated field of astrology are integrated and the face of astrology revitalizes and merges into the larger social collective, then Symmetrical Astrology will have served its purpose as a launching pad for the future and can wither away. Introduction: Finding the Future of Astrology There is no doubt that astrology experienced a major reawakening broken into several segments during the twentieth century after a long period of decay in the learned minds of the world. With the first great reawakening people began to rediscover the astrological craft in the late 1800’s with the coming Neptune-Pluto conjunction in 1892 and what they found was pretty anemic and frail. Astrologers had more folklore guiding them than organized knowledge and scholars that had to work with the subject treated it with abhorrence and contempt. During the early part of the last century, a cottage industry began to grow around the reintroduction of these ideas.

  • Great at Every Price Professional Software for Western Astrology by Hank Friedman Latest Revision April 18, 2013
    Great at Every Price Professional Software for Western Astrology by Hank Friedman latest revision April 18, 2013 Introductory Remarks This article was inspired by the many great professional astrology programs at all price points. "You get what you pay for" simply doesn't apply here, since even the least expensive programs have many features lacking in the most expensive programs! (Of course, the pricier programs also have their own unique features, too.) I decided to present the information on these programs in several sections: the first focuses on the unique capabilities of each program, the second on ease-of-use, and the third shows a table examining many of the features that programs have in common. In the table, I list in blue the programs that have the best implementation of each feature, with very best programs listed first. For example, while most programs offer eclipse mapping, only two show the path of totality as it actually exists (as a wide path and not a line). [I've also started a new series of articles focusing on how specific features compare in different programs. You can read these articles by clicking here.] Please note that programs that have the most features in common with other programs fare best in the table. That's because I only list functions that are present in at least two programs. (If I didn't use this criterion, then there would be a great many rows in the table where one program showed up in the Yes column and all of the rest in the No column.) But the weakness of this approach is that programs with many unique features, like Millennium, will not do as well, because many of its strengths are not found in other programs.
