  1. Tell me more about the drawings in the Daily Horoscope!

    The German artist Gerda Madl Kren did the pen-and-ink drawings and collages, all in 14 x 7 cm format for the Personal Daily Horoscope. We added a slight colour tone for the web application, the originals were all in black ink and scanned in dithering mode.
    The artist created a huge collection of images. Our (then) staff member Klaus Köhler associated the drawings with the actual transits. It is not a totally fixed association, but there is a certain random element imbedded in the programming which image is selected from the list of image candidates for each text. A balance is made so that there are few image repetitions in the course of the year. A different person with the same transit might get a different picture.
    These images have been designed especially for Astrodienst and are not published otherwise.

  2. I find some of the drawings (sexually) offensive! What can I do?

    We can only recommend you to de-activate the images.
    Please go to My Astro and click on the link View/Edit preferences. Here you can activate the checkbox beside "Suppress images in Daily Horoscope".
