I do not want my horoscope mailed. Can I have it delivered to my e-mail only?

I notice that you eliminated the ACG chart style when you updated your site. I really miss that option.

Thanks,

Alois adds: You are mistaken. The extended chart selection has been organized into several sub-groups, to make the lsist shorter and the options more logical. You probably checked only the first group (round charts). Please check also the others.



Pls help me to check PIN NUMBER as I have forgotten my Pin Number. Pls check and email to me. My astro A/C No is: 080235601-1 Thanks!!!
One more thing, when it a heavy rain and I can't see my astro. The AGC is 65 only and why my friend lives next door to me can see the astro when it is raining heavyly.
Pls comments. I always miss the good movies when it raining.

Thks!

Alois adds: Maybe you should carry your computer inside the house during heavy rain, or install a wiper on the screen so that you can read the Astro.com website also while it is raining. Please check with Microsoft whether they offer wipers as a windows-add-on feature. They have frequent rain problems in Redmond too.

I am surprised how water resistant your computing equipment in Malaysia seems to be. When it rains on my PC it usually blows the fuse.



I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SAY, YOUR NEW TRAVEL REPORT IS JUST EXCELLENT!!! I LOVE YOUR SITE, AND THE TRAVEL REPORT JUST TOPPED IT!
I'd love to know if there may be a way to just search for a full list of all positive or negative areas?
Keep up the GREAT site.. LOVE Athena..x

Ich habe gerade die Profisoftware bei Ihnen bestellt, da habe ich noch eine andere Software zum gleichen Preis endeckt. Welche Software ist für Laien am Besten? Ich weiß jetzt nicht was in den einzelnen Paketen enthalten ist? Würden Sie mich bitte beraten? Vielen lieben Dank und eine
gutes neues Jahr wünsche ich Ihnen.

Marianne Lindner [ nospamaol.com ] (visiting www.astro.com)
Muenchen, Deutschland --- Sunday, December 31, 2000 at 01:21 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: Am besten informieren Sie bitte sich über 'Sarastro' auf http://www.astro.com/sarastro/
Wir bieten keine 'andere Profi-Software zum gleichen Preis' an, wie Sie schreiben. Es muss ein Irrtum vorliegen.

Ich habe vorsichtshalber Ihre Sarastro-Bestellung storniert. Eine Fehllieferung von Software hat umständliche Zoll- und Mwst-Folgen, so dass wir eine Rückgabe nach Lieferung nicht akzeptieren können.

Aktiv beraten können wir Sie nicht über Produkte, die wir nicht kennen. Bitte informieren Sie sich mittels der Online vorhandenen Informationen und bestellen Sie nochmals, wenn Sie sich hinreichend informiert fühlen.



Good days and blessings to all. I'm very grateful of your services.
Not having a credit card, what is the procedure for ordering? Will money orders and IRCs (international reply coupons) suffice?
Any help/suggestions will be much appreciated.
Best wishes in thecoming new century.

Alois adds: We accept personal US dollar cheques. Please use the online order form until the last confimation button 'I confirm this order' appears, but then don't press it. Print out that page, and send it to us by mail together with a cheque for the amount displayed on the page, including shipping charges. This is the simplest way to pre-compute shipping cost.

Alteratively, ask a friend or relative to permit the use of his/her credit card for one order.



First, a question:

My natal Saturn is in Scorpio at 19º 34'.
I've been looking for references to the transiting Uranus square as it approaches 19º Aquarius.
None have appeared either in the daily horoscope or in the more expanded forecast.
Is some Uranus data not being transmitted properly?

Then: I am continually amazed at the quality of your work and the sheer volume of information you have made available - in seconds' time - involving so many aspects of astrological calculation.

Congratulations on your excellent, beautiful presentation!

Deborah (visiting www.astro.com)
San Francisco, USA --- Saturday, December 30, 2000 at 18:20 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: For limitations of 'Short report forecast', please read its introduction. For complete forecasting reports, please choose among the various offers in our Astro shop.

The daily horoscope will discuss that transit at some point, but for which day during its year-long activity it is assigned as 'reading of the day' is impossible to predict. Our software makes its own inspired choices in this area. For many weeks the transit will probably appear among the 'important long-term influences'. The printed edition 'Personal Horoscope Calendar' gives you the reading for every day of a 12-month period, and you can easily look up this particular aspect by its index.

Of course, also a book like 'Planets in Transit' will gibe you the reading, if you know already what you look for. Of course the book will not give you the personal timing for the transit, and it will not make a selection by importance, like our advanced reports 'Transits of the Year' or 'Yearly Horoscope Analysis' do.



RE - Upcoming Saturn/Mars conjuction previously occured in Grand Trine formation with Uranus a little while ago..From the 4th of Janurary this aspect will be in Grand Trine with Neptune, carrying through part of the month. Hope this helps!

Do you need to take daylight savings time into account when doing the natal chart - I have a book that does and it creates a different chart for my partner. Thank you, I really enjoy your site.

I love the new composite charts. They are done so well and easy to understand. I also want to highly commend you on the new astrocatography ( astro travel) I can't tell you how long I've waited to see something like this. I have sent your site to all my friends. The only thing I think could be better for the astro travel would be to have the map zoom in or out to actually get exact locations, like mapquest does. Thanks again for your fabulous site!
Sincerely,
Jeanne

Jeanne Woodie [ Enospamaol.com ] (visiting www.astro.com)
Danville,CA, USA --- Thursday, December 28, 2000 at 19:04 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: Thank you for the feedback. For zooming of maps, besides the fact that our small development team is burdened with too much work already, the main counter-argument is orb. You must take into account that you need to allow for at least 100 miles on each side of a line for orb, so any higher resolution map display would just be an illusion of high precision which has no basis in reality.



on the whole a generally excellent site.especially

Astrodienst site is a real great one. The outputs are fantastic. One improvement that you may condiser is drawing an extended chart using the Kundig method where transit or solar planets are placed at the same outer band as the aspect circle planets. This messes up things and makes it difficult to read. I suggest you put the transit/solar/whatever planets further out to clear themselves from those in aspect circle.
Take care

Peter (visiting www.astro.com)
--- Thursday, December 28, 2000 at 11:37 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: We are aware that not all chart styles (of which Kündig is one) fit well with all chart types. We don't actively develop this area of our software, we just make available what we have in store. Please use it as it is, and use Kündig just for natal charts, and use another style for bi-wheel chart types.

I love you, I adore you but also...:

God gracious me:-), why did I ever take a look at my chart for 2000-2001?
I yearn across pathless waterlands for
a whiff of your sour fragrance,
a waft of dimpled arms,
the flick and murmur of your speaking…
(P Davidson, poem: You)

and then I came across my ...eh, so red full and amazing square pattern:-) for the year 2000-2001, and I realized that red is ABSOLUTELY not my color and squares make me quiver… but I promise to stay as nosy as I can on a borders of unknown (Virgo asc. Lion as I am, I have to fight with all what I have). So I take a handful of my abilities and a bucket of a good hope to swift me tenderly in an blue green wander boards.
Well, let’s say I’ll do my best…

Happy New Year for all of you, retro Mercury may be just a slippery backyard, so be inventive and find some equipment in your garage and make your live safer and swifter.

With kind regards,
Lela

Great site, I love all the changes. I have a question regarding the difference of the vertex in the progressed/natal vs. progressed. Is the difference in the vertex position due to the natal ascendant vs. the progressed asc, or is there a different reason to explain the difference? Thanks again, for all the excellent improvements.

Hello Astrodienst Folks,
I've been a devoted user of your services for two years, now, and still find your site the best by years (though I haven't looked around for a whiles need). Still, your changes to the horoscope server over the past year have made acquiring horoscopes slower due to added step/pages whereas, before, one could simply go to the old atlas query mode and, staying in there, make repeated changes to date/time inputs in order to compass and fine tune horoscopes. The thing that really makes your server quite tedious is the added feature of an allowance of only four persons/date info per account, where, you must spend minutes editing/deleting old inputs in order to get 5,6,7 new castings. Would you please return the old atlas query to it's old, spectacular glory! where, after 100 different inputs into the date/time plate, then your web-server location is shut down for 24 hours!

Thank you,
and Happy Holidays

hi!

i love your website have really enjoyed working with the free chart services you provide. i'm curious, however, about your composite charts using midpoints. when i did a couple of composite charts, all the planets were where i expected them to be except for saturn jupiter which were exactly opposite to where i thought they would be. i don't have any formal astrological training-what i know, i've learned from books - the only method for figuring midpoints i've seen involves adding the planets' positions by degree as found on the zodiacal wheel, then dividing the result by two. i'm guessing there must be at least one other method, would like to get some feedback about how these methods compare differ.

thanks for your help,
virginia

virginia [ nospamearthlink.net ] (visiting www.astro.com)
--- Monday, December 25, 2000 at 19:19 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: You must draw the two planets into a circle, and take the CLOSER midpoint. For example, assume one Moon at 10 Pisces ( = 340 deg.), the other at 10 Aries (= 10 deg). The arithmetic mean would be (340+10) / 2 = 175, or 25 Virgo, but the CLOSER midpoint is 25 Pisces.



great site...i've been studying robert hand's aspects since 1977...i thought it had too much info and i doubted the aspects...though your site, i've realized how accurate it can be...
thank you for the enjoyment

Hallo!

Ich habe mir ein schönes Tageshoroskop erstellen lassen. Danke!
Grund dafür war aber, endlich meinen Aszendenten herauszufinden. Leider konnte ich diesen nirgendwo finden.
Wie komme ich kurz und schmerzlos an diese Information? Es muss doch ein Programm oder Service dafür geben.
Meine Daten: männlich, 22.12.1964, 16.24 in Detmold (Deutschland).
Können Sie mir helfen? Möglichst Schnell?
Vielen Dank im Voraus!

Frohes Fest

Can't seem to figure out how to reduce the orbs. Is the number I'm entering the degrees of orb I want used to determine an aspect or is the number the degrees of reduction? Or something else entirely?

Paula Walowitz [ nospammsn.com ] (visiting wwx.astro.com)
Chicago, IL, USA --- Friday, December 22, 2000 at 10:49 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: entering 80 reduces the normal orbs to 80% of their full value.



Every chart I've had done, whether by computer or by hand, said my ascendant is Pisces. This program says my ascendant is Aquarius. How can that be?

SRK (visiting www.astro.com)
Olmsted, Ohio --- Friday, December 22, 2000 at 08:43 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: It can be because you have seen your correct horoscope for the first time today. Hooray! Ohio daylight saving time rules have been very complicated in the past, and many astrlogers don't get the charts right due to that.



Namaste:

I am wondering if leaving out the selection for a progressed chart only was an oversight? I sure do miss it :-)

Blessings of Light,

Milwaukee, U.S.A. --- Thursday, December 21, 2000 at 23:57 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: No, it is no oversight. I don't think it makes much sense to look at a progressed chart without the natal. Of course you can progress your chart 'manually', just enter a fake birth date as many days after your real birthday as you would like to have years since birth. To save you the date calulation, you can take it from the Progressed+natal chart options we offer.

I want you to know I consider the fact that I cannot order a horoscope over a secure order form a great inconvenience. Now I have to fax my credit card info since I do not want to take the risk of having my credit card info swiped.
You have a great website, what is so hard about getting the credit card form secured?

Alois, yours is one of the best site.I wish to have a software with similar capabilites of the atlas. I think , new matrix software may be a close approximate.

However, I wish to see cuspal chart in north Indian design. This is basiscaly a rectangle, with a parrelogram at 45 degrees and two diagnols of rectangle cutting each other. This way I house is designated as the top box. This design is highly intuitive to give quick readings. May be you may consider incorporting this type of chart.


At our website, we are advising lucky gemstones, for the time being free of charges.

Dear Alois,
First of all I want to thank you once more for your GREAT service.

I have one question regarding the free forecast reports. I checked them for a friend of mine, who will have a T. Pluto opposition to N. Sun on 14.1.2001, but this aspect is not mentioned.
Which criteria do the described transits follow? Did I do something wrong or are the offered just transits just not all the transits that take place ?
Thank you for your attention.

I was very disappointed to find that when I used AstroClick Love, that several of the astrological interpretations actually were advocating multiple partners and seeing other people in secret to allay sexual frustration or balance their primary relationship. This isn't something that I would expect from this site. I've always thought you to be a very upstanding group. Why are you giving this sort of interpretation to people that is endorsing the lack of monogamy in our love relationships? Do you really believe that this sort of behavior is better for couples now? This is very upsetting to me.

Alois adds: I am sorry if you are upset. I promise, when monogamy has become the standard behaviour of the human race, we will take Robert Townley's text off the web and lock it up in the compartment for politically incorrect literature.

Meanwhile, you might want to read what we say in the catalogue section about the report 'astrotext love' which is also the basis of AstroClick Love.

"As the text was written in the early 1970s, it reflects the spirit of that time, when sexual freedom was still great news and a tremendously liberating achievement. We have kept the original text even when it is sometimes a bit outdated due to later changes in social attitudes, because it carries the lively quality of that time and is fun to read."

You see that we are aware of a change in social attitudes. I suggest you don't take AstroClick Love that serious. It is mostly for fun.



I would really enjoy one addition to the charts available: I'd love to see a composite chart with current transits, much like the natal chart with transits. The charts coming off this site are so beautiful compared with the ones I do by hand! -)

I am sorry for this, we really love to give things away but we still need to make a living and pay salaries, bandwidth and rent. The introduction to the short report forecast tells about the incompleteness, please read it.

Not incomplete is the Daily Horoscope, which is the full 'Personal Horoscope Calendar' if you collect it for 365 days. AstroClick Travel exists only for free, there is no related paid report.

Hi:

Fantastic site!! -- Thanks for
putting it up.

I recently visited the Astro Travel section, which needless to say is also
great, but I have a few requests/suggestions:

1. In addition to clicking on the map,
the ability to enter the city and/or
lat/long location and obtain the
report on which lines are having impact
on the location.

2. In addition, to the lat/long for the line crossings, it would be helpful if location/city name was also given. It would make it more user-friendly.

3. Additional astro-graphs using
progressed natal chart, solar return
natal chart, transits.

Alois adds: I am quite sure there is no bug. You can check yourself: make a note of which transits the daily horoscope brings up for you, and then go to the 'extended chart selection' and call up the chart type 'natal chart and transits' and compare what you found. Be aware that the chart drawing will be done for midnight Universal Time, and that the transiting Moon (in green) moves by about 15 degrees per 24 hours.

Apparently you and your friend have some natal planet(s) at close angles. There is more to astrology than sun-signs!

Dear Alois
I like your site a lot, I think it's very enlightening and useful.

However, sometimes, while surfing your site, I begin to feel surrounded by computers - machines, that's when I turn to your page, to read something actually written by a person in the present. I can allways learn something unexpected from you, and it warms the heart that there is a person in the end of the computer. I think if there was a column in the site (weekly, daily or monthly), written by a live person like you, writing about topics in astrology, either about present transits, general articals on various astrological subjects, or answering readers questions in an elaborated manner (not about individual chart interpretation, just general astrological questions), it will increase the satisfaction from the site, and it's popularity. A lot of other sites, less compatible than yours, offer this service, and I can't see why you can't have this service too, done the best way around, as you do everything else.

On another matter, congratulations for the new astroclick travel. I must admit, though, it left me quite confused... It seems all my life I lived in the wrong places... I did read the introduction, and I still don't understand how am I supposed to relate to it... is there a 'right' place to live? It doesn't seem like we have much choices in life with this map, everything is pre-destined... Modern astrology, as I understand it, usually presents challenges, and by realising the challenge, we might find a way to overcome the problems. With this map I don't realy know what to do except maybe roaming the whole globe until I find a suitable place (if I find one..) and move there...but that doesn't seem very practical either... Could you talk about this, and maybe include a more in depth explanation in the introduction, since this is not a subject discussed often in books.
Thank you kindly
Iris Comidi

Alois adds: Dear Iris, thank you for the feedback. You are not the first to suggest that we add more 'journalistic' content to our website. It is more effort than you think, however, to write a weekly column. For me personally it is hard to write anything on a fixed schedule. I find it easy to write replies to questions or comments, as I like conversation, but when I have to write a paper or an article I suffer from severe writer's block. But I am sure we will find a way to have regular columnists at some point.

Your comment on the AstroClick Travel readings applies in a general way to the technique of 'astro cartography', as its main proponent Jim Lewis called it. [Lewis copyrighted the word, and has tried to prevent anyone from using it. Soon the whole English language will be copyrighted or patented, and we all will have to pay royalties if we want to speak.]

As all cookbook readings where single horoscope factor are interpreted, you should take the reading not at face value. Wherever you go, you have your whole natal horoscope with you, and much more than that. A single planetary shadow line will not change that much. I personally found 'astro cartography' just a beautiful thing to play with, after I had written my first program to draw those maps in 1982. Only when I travelled to Australia, where the whole east coast is under my Saturn-Ascendant line, I found out what it feels like to live with Saturn on the Ascendant and I began to take 'astro cartography' more serious. I still think that only the strongest lines count, and only when seen in connection to your natal chart. I have a strong Saturn placement in my chart, and a lot of what I have achieved I have to thank this constellation for, as it gives me the strength to solve hard problems. So I think because I relate strongly to this planet, I can feel it when it appears in such a prominent position as on the Ascendant. Please keep the limitations of 'point and click' astrology in mind when you play with our maps.

A funny personal note on the side: The Big Island of Hawaii which is like a second home for me and my favourite place on earth besides Switzerland, is void of any direct lines in my astro map. It seems as if 'astro cartography' could not explain what draws me to Hawaii. Only when we had programmed AstroClick travel, which also looks carefully for planetary crossings at the same latitude, I could click on the Big Island and read:

Crossing Sun/Saturn:
At first glance, this region appears unfriendly, cold and unattractive. A lifestyle, which is stamped by its severity and loneliness, hardly seems inviting, and thus this region does not lend itself to finding relaxation, amusement or harmony in your relationships.
On the other hand, Sun/Saturn regions offer the best conditions to develop personal maturity, seriousness as well as technical and professional competence, provided you are prepared to be responsible, disciplined and to continue working. Conditions are harsh, but consistency and persistence create impressive results.
You put your time to good use by asking important questions about life, making every effort to work constructively and focusing your energy on establishing a solid, material base. Here, you can gain independence. You become a perfectionist, get ride of excess baggage and learn to differentiate between essentials and non-essentials.

This is pretty good stuff for someone with Sun-Saturn as the predominant aspect in the birth chart. I had developed all these sides already before I discovered Hawaii, but to find it expressed here - available at a click - adds to my confidence in what I am doing.

PS: Now I did my weekly sunday column, didn't I?

Alois adds: Astrolog by Walter Pullen is just a free software package for astrology, not easy to use in fact, available at various sites, e.g. www.astrolog.org. It implements a variety of astrological techniques, but - like most astrology software including Astrodienst's - does not TEACH you astrology. The usual way is like this: you study astrology via books, a teacher or a group, and then you try out the techniques you learned with the help of some software or online service.

I'm sorry if I insulted your modern sensibilities with my antiquated question, but I asked it in good faith and did not deserve your mean spirited response. The system I am using is quite user friendly thank you with the noon ephemerides. My chart was the first that I did with this so-called antiquated system( I ordered a one-year noon ephemeris for my birth year)and I came out right on target! I asked for a simple conversion and received a diatribe on how I should Wake up. I assure you I am fully awake and happy using this system(By the way I don't mean to shock you again, but I am also using the equal house sytem and not the Placidus!) Next time you decide to respond to a question someone poses in good faith, please, try considering the persons feelings beforehand.

What a wonderful site you have! It's tremendous! I only wish that one could order the full horoscopes online as well, i.e., that the information could be available immediately rather than arriving via snail mail.

You might want to visit our samples section, to see the difference between a computer horoscope you might get anywhere, and an Astro*Intelligence report.

We can't yet deliver quality binding online, but our transmutation specialists are working on it.

Interesting site. I would like to correct and amend some information submitted a month ago by Dennis Garwitz Sr. I believe there actually was an presidential election in 1820--of James Monroe. (An ancestor of mine was the only member of the electoral college to vote against Monroe, but... bygones.) Also, Theodore Roosevelt was elected vice-president, not president, in 1900. His presidential running mate, William McKinley, was indeed assassinated in Sept. 1901. That is how Teddy Roosevelt became president. (Historians say that when McKinley was murdered, his campaign manager said, Now that damned cowboy [Roosevelt] is president! I'll bet somebody somewhere must have said the same thing in reference to Lyndon Johnson when John Kennedy was killed.)

The astrological theory is that Jupiter/Saturn conjuntions only bode the death in office of an American president if the conjunction occurs in an earth sign. From 1840 until 1960, these twenty year conjunctions did occur in earth signs. Not so in 1800, 1820 and 1980. However, the recent Jupiter/Saturn conjunction did occur in an earth sign. So the worst is possible. What I do not know is why the death in office sometimes occurs within the first year of office while at other times the president does not die in office until his next term after the one nearest the fateful conjunction. Also, I am aware of a rough pattern involving the deaths of vice-presidents in office every couple of presidents from the early 19th century until the early 20th. About 15 years ago, I wrote an unpublished paper tracing this phenomenon, but I reached no conclusions as to why the pattern appeared or why it stopped.

Also, as to Mayan astrology, I have heard speakers on this topic who think that the Mayan End of the World does not mean a literal end of the world but a change to the world as we know it. That may not be helpful. Perhaps that will make some worry all the more.

First, This is a wonderful site. I really appreciate the fact that it is here.
You are probably asked to do this and to do that. And bearing in mind the old saw about not looking gift horses in the mouth, I would respectfully ask if you might include a function that would do semi, or half year, solar returns. Those are quite useful. A general harmonic application would work well, as one could easily compute semi, and well as quarti returns, and enneads too. Of course, half year returns are doable by using the sidereal function, getting the sun's place, and casting back and forth till you center in on that opposite point.( I like mine precessed). For a normal precessed return in the tropical zodiac it's real easy, just get the sidereal return, and recast for the same time, only in tropical format.
Thanks again for a great site.
Best regards,
Patrick Brown

Alois adds: Thanks for the feedback. I am afraid there are limits of what we can do for the technical experts. We focus on services useful for the larger population. For experts like you, at some point it is advisable to buy a good astrology program like Solar Fire.

If it were not for precession correction (which I personally consider an illogical technique), you could use the the Graphical Ephemeris for one year with Natal, additional data tables, to get the moments of the Sun's transits over its own aspect points, and use those to set up event charts.



I find your midnight ephemeris very helpful, however, I have been taught to cast charts using a noon ephemeris. Short of actually going and buying one(which i plan to do when I become more proficient), how can I accurately convert from midnight sidreal time to noon sidereal and have my charts come out correctly. I have found a site or two with printable ephemerides, but only one, yours, with sidereal time, but I need noon not midnight. Please help! Many thanks in advance!

Please read the guestbook entry of Sept. 19, 2000 for more opinion about the use of noon ephemerides in the 21st century.



I have been anticipating your introduction of Astro Maps for specific areas of the world and had expected them to have the same features, particularly the graphic display and lines for the aspects, i.e., trines, squares, etc., found on the Astro Europe map. Needless to say, I was disappointed in the present format.

I like the service the site provides, it much better than any other that I have found.

Wow!! great site! Can Gypsies foretell the future,astrodienst? Do they use astrology? My aunt says that my great grandmother had her fortune told to her (when she was a young girl in Southern Russia),by a GYPSY. Everything, EVERYTHING the gypsy said came true. Astrodienst, the universe is a very mystifying place isn't it??? **by the way, my great grandma was a 100% hard nosed German peasant, I suspect she was a non-believer...but I think the gypsy 'changed' her mind a bit.

Thankyou for compling this excellent site, it has certainly made chart drawing a lot easier, quicker (and less error prone!) for me.

Just a thought...if you aren't already in the process, why not have online aastrology lessons text book style with a quiz at the end of each lesson and charge a really small fee like 5 or 10 per month worth of smalll lessons? You can basically input info from your already published books...I would pay to do something like that. McDonalds reaches the masses.

Danke für die schnelle Antwort. Ein Teil der frage ist leider imm noch für mich offen. Einen meiner akuten (wiederkehrenden) Transite kann ich auch so einorden aber bei den anderen zwei verstehe ich das system noch nicht.
Ich habe z.b. einen Transit vom 9. Dez. bis Sep. 2001. Er erscheint aber nur als Transit auf der Tageshoskop Seite aber überhaupt _nicht_ in der Vorschau. Ein anderer Transit welcher nur beim Tageshoroscop und nicht in der vorschau erscheint geht von Jul. 2000 bis Mär. 2001.

I love your website and I use it often. The timezone conversions are fantastic. For quick charts I can always go to your site.

However, I do have a question, where upon clicking on the natal and transits for example, the chart is drawn up and the planets are illustrated on the outside of the circle. It would be a great time saver and much more convenient if the planets on the outside were also shown with the degree and minutes as well, instead of just the planets themselves.
Do you think your website will be offering this in the near future instead of additionally clicking to PDF formats that illustrate the transits?

thanks,

Alois adds: Es könnte sein, dass die Orbes nicht immer gleich sind. Der wesentliche Punkt ist aber, dass bei mehrfachen Transiten (die innerhalb eines Jahres oft dreimal auftreten, manchmals sogar fünfmal in zwei Jahren) diese im Kurzhoroskop Vorschau in einzeln Stücke zerschnitten sind, die sich dann auch wiederholen können, während sie der Horoskopkalender und damit auch dessen Derivat, das Tageshoroskop, als Einheit behandeln, vom ersten Eintritt in den Orbis bis zum letzten Austritt.

Liebes Astroteam, ich mache fast täglich gebrauch von Eurem Dienst, und ich bin erstaunt, wie sehr ich von meinem Anti-Astro/Esoterischem Gehabe wegkomme. Es hilft mir enorm, mich kennenzulernen und mich zu verstehen. Zum anderen habe ich mit einem schweren Schicksal in meinem Leben zukämpfen, in welchem mir Ihren Dienst, zu einigen Fragen, die Antwort gibt. Vielen Dank.
Zum Schluss habe ich jetzt aber noch eine minderwichtige Frage! Wenn es in Ihren Horoskopen um die Liebe geht, lese ich immer von meiner Partnerin oder Freundin. Da ich von meiner Homosexualität überzeugt bin, frage ich mich, ob dass nur damit zutun hat, dass das System bei Männer automatisch von einer Partnerin spricht, oder ob ich mir da ernsthaft Gedanken zu meiner Sexuellen Ausrichtung machen müsste? Wenn Sie mir darauf eine Antwort geben könnten, wäre ich Ihnen sehr dankbar!
Vielen Dank, Michael

Alois adds: Wenn in Einzelhoroskopen Partner- und Liebesthemen angesprochen werden, so nehmen unsere Programme die gegengeschlechtliche Sprachregelung als Norm an. Das ist ein Automatismus, der unvermeidlich ist. Wir wollen nicht bei jedem Einzelhoroskop nur wegen ein paar sprachlicher Formulierungen, die einen Homosexuellen leider stören können, den Besucher nach seiner/ihrer sexuellen Orientierung fragen müssen. (Stellen Sie sich die Proteste vor, wegen ungebührlichen Eindringens in die Privatspäre, oder wegen der 'Frechheit', das überhaupt zu fragen zu wagen).

Bei Partnerhoroskopen kennt das System das Geschlecht beider und macht die Formulierungen automatisch richtig auch für gleichgeschlechtliche Beziehungen.

Wenn Sie ein Einzelhoroskop bei uns im Shop bestellen, so können Sie freiwillig dazu angeben 'gleichgeschlechtliches Partnerbild' oder 'code s=hom'; dann geben wir das bei der Bearbeitung ein, und die meisten Partner-Referenzen werden wunschgemäss gleichgeschlechtlich formuliert. Wir nehmen nämlich die berechtigten Anliegen unserer homosexuellen Kunden und Kundinnen sehr ernst und jede Diskriminierung liegt uns fern.

Es wurde auch schon oft vorgeschlagen, alles geschlechtsneutral zu formulieren. Während das in Englisch einigermassen leicht geht, gibt es dann in anderen Sprachen eins sehr starke Minderung der Sprachqualität, die wir nicht vertreten können. Bitte denken Sie einfach um. Das müssen Sie ja sonst auch oft.



the free astrology report is quite accurate. considering the complete report. would recommend to others.

I was curious about how I might use astrology best in my life. What transits or aspects are the most important to pay attention to? There are so many things happening at one time in my life it seems. I'm curious on which are the most important ones to focus on and how do I make the distinction in the future. I am very interested in astrology {my mother used to make charts when I was young} and I must say thanks a zillion for having your website available, it saves me a lot of the time my mother would have to use 10 years ago. Oh, you must be wondering why I don't ask my mother these questions...She passed away when I was nine, which definetly was a major planetary transition in my life.

Hallo astrodienst!
Glückwunsch zu Eurer gelungenen Website- der beste online-Astro-service weit und breit .
Eine Frage:
Liz Greene schrieb in Ihrem Buch Star signs for lovers,daß Leute, die am Scheitelpunkt zweier Zeichen geboren sind, etwas von den beiden Zeichen in sich haben.
Stimmt das bzw. gibt es eine Rubrik für diese Cusp-signs?
Laut dieses Buches würde sogar der 21.April noch unter Widder fallen - ich bin am 21.4.1964 ,16.30, geboren und mit 1 Grad im Stier, und im Persönlichkeitshoroskop gibt es keinerlei Hinweise auf eine Beziehung zum nachbarschaftlichen Sternzeichen..
Über eine Antwort würde ich mich freuen,
Viele Grüße, Katrin

Alois adds: Leider ist Liz Greene's Buch an dieser Stelle unsauber übersetzt; ich habe mich heute mit ihr über das Thema unterhalten, und sie ist überhaupt nicht der Auffassung, dass es hier Mischformen von Sternzeichen gibt, sondern es muss korrekt gerechnet werden und dann ist eindeutig feststellbar, welches Sonnenzeichen man hat.

Im Original schreibt Liz Greene: .. you are said to partake a little of both [signs]. You'll still be one or the other.

Zu deutsch: .. man sagt, dass man dann ein wenig von beiden Zeichen habe. Sie sind immer noch das eine ODER das andere.

Mit dem Ausdruck 'man sagt' distanziert sie sich effektiv von dieser verbreiteten Meinung, und stellt vielmehr fest: [Ich aber sage,] Sie sind immer [entweder] das eine oder das andere.

Can't thank U enough for this wonderful site! I'm passing out yor adress left and right. A Question: can you very briefly tell me the bare bones of reading a solar-return chart. Just the basic technique, not interpretation. And/or recommend a good book on the subject. thanks and much love. Gro.

Name: Gro Engelstoft Location: NY, USA Time: Thursday, December 7, 2000 at 22:40

Alois adds: Look at it as the birth chart of a new year of your life; there is more to the Solar return than that (it is a transit chart for your birthday), but it is a good start.

For books, please check the link 'book search' in the left column of the page you are reading. There are 16 titles for Solar Returns. I have to admit that I have not read any of them and can't give recommendations. I doubt there is a really good book on the subject out there.

Von ganzem Herzen DANKE für Beruf und Berufung. Es ist so präzise und genau, dass ich fast nicht glauben kann, was ein Computer-Horoskop alles kann.Mein Mann hat es gestern gelesen und festgestellt, dass es nie auf ihn - oder auf einen unserer Freunde - passen könnte. Es wird mir ein wertvoller Begleiter sein.Wenn wir unsere eigenen Seiten kennen und anerkennen, diese annehmen als Geschenk, dann können wir unser Potential entwickeln und unserer Lebensaufgabe dienen und versuchen, ihr gerecht zu werden. Das wünsche ich mir und allen anderen.Ich werde Sie mit Liebe weiterempfehlen!
Viele liebe Grüße,
Stephanie

Is there any way of finding a specific famous person's astrological chart, such as Dr. Wayne Dyer or Oprah Winfrey? I would like to see their charts.

Alois adds: Not in our VIP birthday twin database; if you know the birth date, you can enter a fictrious chart and then use the VIP birthday twin feature for it. However, our data collection is euro-centric and does not contain more recent US celebrities.



I loved your website,
Could you please tell me what astrological datings for, mars, the moon and mercury in conjunction in the next decade? Do you have a book for sale that would help with astrological dating such as this in the future.

Firstly, congratulations on a wonderful Web Site and thank you for all your free reports and information! A quick question - my partner is currently in a Pluto square Pluto transit yet there is no mention of this in the free short forecast. Just wondering why as I thought this would be a very significant transforming transit. Also your Orbs seem to be greater than what I have been taught. eg. for a conjunction involving the Sun and Venus I have seen the orb stretched to 23 degrees. (looking at the table under the chart)Thanks Julie

Alois adds: The introduction of the 'short forecast' mentions that it does not aim to be complete. It is not.
The maximum aspect orb we are using is 10 degrees. You must have made a perceptive error when you got a different impression. If there is really a bug, please use our 'report a problem' feature to report it with all necessary detail.



I recently received an Astro World Map Kit that I ordered. However, the only thing included was a map and a booklet on all the services you provide. I was expecting some type of interpretation as I do not know how to read the map. Don't you provide some type of interpretation as part of the kit. If not, why is the package called a kit? Can you direct me to resources that can help me interpret the map?

Hi
I filled in the info for a report and read through the information. Thank you. I would like to ask you a question about one small piece.
It read, re: Saturn in the Fifth house: ...In relation to children, you may experience the 'severe hand of destiny' in trouble coming to your descendents.
I would like to ask you two things.
1. Is it possible that this placement can also mean that you yourself, AS a descendent, experienced trouble due to your ancestors? Please answer me on this one. It is very important.
2. If the above is not the case, what,exactly, is the point in disclosing such information? Am I supposed to now walk around fearful because you gave me this ominous warning? As a person who thinks and emotes quite profoundly, I would like clear and serious resolution to this. I do not want to spend the next x amount of years of my life worrying.
Thank you
Samantha

Alois adds: Some of our authors have written sentences, which, taken out of context and without a more fundamental understanding of the principles at work, can be perceived as frightening. I am sorry for this. I have removed the offending sentence out of the reading which referred to a Saturn in house 5 placement. We have already 'sanitized' our text quite a bit, but occasionally things have been overlooked.



I logged on this morning and looked at some forcasts and have noticed for some time that the transit of Pluto to the natal moon was conspicuous by its absence in all short and daily forcasts for one individual. I had presumed until now that because these are intended to be brief and meant to wet the appetite to purchase in-depth forcasts that a few transits were picked at random. However today I thought I might raise a question about it to see if the reason was to keep things light and not delve too deeply into dangerous waters, so clicked on feedback and was intrigued to find someone in Germany had a similar thought and expressed it at around the same time. I thought this moment of synchronicity was worth a mention. Regards and thanks as always to Alois and to all at Astro, Helene

This site is a treasure trove and all of you associated with Astrodienst are to be congratulated for your superior services. My only surprise is that your free reports do not include Pluto transits to personal planets. Is that an oversight or by design? But since it is a free service, I am not complaining--just curious.

I love your site. It is invaluable for the novice who has an interest in saving time. I would like you to consider adding a segment on relocation charts. You site has been a big blessing to me, saving me lots of time. The new partner section of the astro click feature is outstanding. I like Hand's interpretations.

I am writing today about the section entitled long term influences I wonder if it would be difficult to list them all during the period in which they are active, so I won't forget, for example, that a certain 6 week period is bad for negotiations.

Let me know where to send a financial contribution to keep this site going?

This is a great site! I have a problem though, I was born on midnight between April 4 and 5. Which one do I chose. April 4th midnight or April 5th midnight? I guess I am confused. Please let me know. I have put your site on my Favorites list. It is wonderful!

Cathy [ nospammsn.com ] (visiting www.astro.com)
Toledo, USA --- Thursday, November 30, 2000 at 12:32 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: Midnight is written as 00:00 and not as 23:60, and belongs technically to the new day.

Either enter April 4th, 23:59:59 or April 5, 00:00 as your birth date/time. If you celebrate your birthday on April 4, the first choice seems the better one.



Apart from all the other work you have done in Astrology, what do you think about the Ebertin Mid-Point system.

Vor einigen Tagen las ich mein Gratis-Persönlichkeitshoroskop im englischen Original und danach in deutsch. Auf Seite http://www.astro.com/cgi/atxgen.cgi... steht als letzter Satz: Ausländern gegenüber sind Sie eher mißtrauisch. Im Englischen Original steht nichts davon, deshalb fühle ich mich durch diesen frei erfundenen Zusatz diskriminiert. Stünde da fremden/unbekannten Menschen gegenüber sind Sie eher mißtrauisch, wäre das in Ordnung. Ich bestreite hiermit jedoch ausdrücklich, daß meine Vorsicht irgendetwas mit Nationalitäten zu tun hat. Eher im Gegenteil: deutsche Menschen und Mentalität sind mir sehr viel fremder als viele Menschen anderer Nationalitäten. Auch wenn Ihnen mein Protest vielleicht etwas kinky vorkommt, bestehe ich darauf, daß dieser Zusatz geändert wird und die Ursache für diesen im englischen Original nicht vorhandenen Satz geprüft wird.
Entweder war der/die Übersetzer/in jemand, der Deutschen grundsätzlich Nationalismus unterstellt (dann ist er/sie vielleicht zu simpel gestrickt für diese Aufgabe) oder aber es ist jemand, der Nationalsozialistische Gesinnung zu verbreiten sucht. Damit möchte ich nichts zu tun haben...... auch nicht per Gratis-Horoskop!!!!!!! Danke.

Liermann (visiting www.astro.com)

Alois adds: Die Urheber dieser Website sind - von Ihrem Land aus gesehen - alles Ausländer, und offensichtlich sind Sie uns gegenüber äusserst misstrauisch. Blitzartig wird uns 'freie Erfindung' unterstellt. Nicht nur das, Sie schlagen sogleich Befehlston an: Sie BESTEHEN DARAUF! Bitte denken Sie mal nach.

Sowohl der deutsche wie der englische Text des Kurzhoroskops sind Kürzungen - nicht identische, da von verschiedenen Bearbeitern gekürzt - eines englischen Originals bzw. einer deutschen Langfassung, worin es zu Saturn in 9 heisst:
Physically, you are not well suited for traveling abroad or maintaining relationships with foreigners as there is an aspect of your personality that makes you rather distrustful in this respect, although it is something that your willpower could change.

In der deutschen Ausgabe von Astrotext Persönlich kommt das als:
Auslandsreisen sind eher ungünstig für Sie. Auch Beziehungen zu Ausländern würden sich aufgrund Ihres Mißtrauens eher als schwierig erweisen, was Sie allerdings mit Ihrer Willenskraft verändern könnten.

Wenn Pelletier 'Fremder' hätte sagen wollen, hätte er 'stranger' genommen, denke ich. Besser regen Sie sich wegen eines astrologischen Kochbuchtexts nicht so auf. Er ist zwangsläufig eher pauschal, exemplarisch, und kann unmöglich im konkreten Detail stimmen. Eine wunde Stelle könnte es ja in diesem Bereich vielleicht geben, sonst würden Sie nicht so überempfindlich reagieren.



Re: the Liz Greene natal chart version: Since you include Chiron by default, and list aspects to it in the aspect table ... wouldn't it be nice if graphical aspect lines to/from Chiron were also included by default? (Yes, it would!) (Or is the lack of aspect lines a subtle expression of Chironian themes? :)

thank you for your exibition and punctual standing on stable professional backround, especially regarding the more extensive technical forms. nevertheless, it could have been regarded even more punctual and externaly professional to introduce into your samples more options and alternatives, such as regarding moon nodes or even planet nodes as points of reference(without elaboration - ater all it should remain somehow commercial): it could have been a refeshing notion as to the usually ignored sophistication of the profession. as long as there are such sites as this one, there is hope for the serious and even-handed ambition for re-enterance of our 'guild' from under the debased fare-ground of magicians and shamans (be them respectable as they may) back to the catedra. who knows?
secondly, as a student of astrology for the last 20 years, and being a student of law and governance, i would appreciate more links towards professional mundane astrology sources that are more elaborate and less basic, and an appealing and most wanted pool-anchor for refreshment towards economics astrology and more complex interdisciplinary merging of astrology and the social sciences or comparative myth and symbol delienation:as you've got the property on the web - maximize it thoroughly and we all can win!
in sum - be blessed for the striving towards balance of the commercial with the professional.
maximize, then.
thank you again.

Werte Mitarbeiter des astrodienstes,
Erst einmal Gratulation zum gelungenen Internetauftritt. Ich habe eine Frage,
wo kann ich nachlesen, ob es eine Bedeutung hat zu welchem Zeitpunkt der Rückläufigkeit eines Planeten man geboren wurde.
Saturn war 1965 z.Bsp. von ende Juni bis ca Anfang November rückläufig. Hat es für die Deutung eine Bedeutung ob man in der Mitte (August, Septemeber)oder am Anfang bzw. Ende (Juni, November Geburtstag hat.

Warum ist das Zeichen ausschlaggebende in dem sich die Spitze eines Hauses befindet und nicht die ein oder mehreren Zeichen über die sich ein Haus erstreckt?
Vielen Dank im voraus.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen

My birthdate is in 1954. When I do the astro

Is that right? If so, how come?...Daylight

This is a great website. Do you provide services that explaine why I read scorpio and relate to it more than sagittarius. my birth day is nov /24/ 76. and i am a sagittarius but my behavior patterns in reality fit scorpio. is there a reason for this and can i find the answers somewhere. (some say there are no cusps and some say there are) The sun is in one sign or the other but i believe the influance is still felt in some cases. maybe because of other platary positions. please reply.

I would just like to say how excellent this website is! It is by far the most informative and accurate astrology website that i have visited. I was very interested in your composite charts as i had been doing my own relationship astrology by calculating the aspects between each person's planet positions by hand. Your composite charts were exteremly informative and , may i say, alarmingly accurate. I was wondering if you are able to tell me the advantages and disadvantages of using the different methods?

This website is wonderful. Thank you for making astrology accessible to those who don't have their own astrology software. One suggestion: The persoanl portrait interpretation doesn't reflect all of the different house systems used. Is there any way that this could be altered to reflect different house systems. The ascendant often changes as well as planetary placements when using different house systems. Thank You , Tracey

Tracey (visiting www.astro.com)
--- Saturday, November 25, 2000 at 23:19 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: This restriction to Placidus is on purpose and meaningful. Our computerized chart interpretation system was developed by human astrologers. It also behaves like a human astrologer in this issue of choice of technique. When you visit an astrologer and ask him/her to read your chart, you must be willing to concede that this astrologer uses his/her technique of chart setup and reading, the technique in which he/she has the most extensive experience and which he/she always uses for his/her work. This includes choice of house system, size of orbs for the ascpects, varied by aspect and planet pair, choice of chart factors to include in the reading etc.

No astrologer who has any pride in his/her business will read the chart according to YOUR style, only according to his/her style. The fact that there exists a 'YOUR' style indicates that you have some understanding of astrology and should be able to read the charts by yourself. We offer all the choices when it comes to chart calculation, but none when we do the reading. Please accept that we stick to our 'faith'.

You cannot ask a rabbi for the holy communion, can you?

PS: The ascendant does NOT change with most house systems, except very obscure ones. This is so with good reason, as the Ascendant is well defined as the degree of the zodiac rising at the eastern horizon at the moment of birth.

We have once again updated our web software. New is the 'AstroClick' Partner, and new is a feature in registered accounts which gives a 'high security' option.
If you want to publish links to charts, even just send them to a friend, make sure you use this new option to protect your account.

It will force you to login each time you connect to it, but it prevents access from anyone not having your password. If you publish a link to
a chart from your account, a user of the link will only get access to this single chart, not to you whole account.

You have manually to activate the 'high security' feature, it is not turned on by default.

Alois, I was wondering what your opinions are regarding Mayan astrology. There are those that speak of the Mayan calendar expiring sometime in the next decade. I've forgotten the exact date, 2011 perhaps? Or maybe it was 2015. One of an assortment of dates given for the decline of the world, over the last several hundred years.
I digress - as there are various forms and modes for astrology, have you enquired greatly into Mayan?
I received a brief vocal reading, once upon a time. 'twas a bit different!

Deborah (visiting www.astro.com)
Northern NSW, Australia --- Friday, November 24, 2000 at 01:16 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: I find the 22 years I have spent with astrology too short to even get a full grasp of 'western' astrology, and I have been consciously avoiding any other astrological systems, like Chinese or Mayan. In other areas of life, e.g. in cooking, I love blending and combining many regional styles, but in astrology I avoid it. This is just my personal preference.

I have however heard of this new 'millennium scare' about the end of time, and I shall sleep well with it. Much worse will be 2037, when the system clock counting the seconds since Jan 1, 1970, in all Unix computers, overruns 2^31 and becomes negative.



Thank you, again, for your marvelous site. I'm just wondering if there's any way that your write-ups on relationship could be altered to include the possibility of same-sex relationships. As a gay man, rather than hearing about her and she, it might be helpful to hear about him and he.
Thanks again,

Hallo and thankyou,
I am wanting to let you know that I appreciate the high quality of your site. I am a spiritual consultant to many beautiful beings and have a background in astrology which is combined with many other fields to assist others in their journey. This I find quite time consuming and it does not give me the opportunity to sit and manually construct the charts that can give them more information. For the first time I have found that computer generated charts can be trusted in their accuracy. One thing that I have had to watch for is the use of daylight saving time automatically even in times when it was not in use. As I do not accept monies from people I also appreciate your generosity for free access to charts and brief interpretation. Again Thank You and may God shower you with many blessings,
Love, Gayle.

Iam absolutely amazed at the accuraccy of your horoscopes! It helped me so much to understand abd confirm what was going on in my life. I need to learn more about when the best times to start different things, especially a child.

Hi brilliant computer people,
In the Acrobat tables of extra data for a free chart it gives the declination of the house cusps. Do you know any sources of information on declinational houses? Are these interpreted in the same way as the longtitudinal houses? Sometimes a planet can be in a different declinational house to its longtitudinal house position. What then? Where does latitude come into it all?
I would be very grateful if you could let me know of any books or articles which would clarify this. Or perhaps you could write just a few words to help. You give declinational house cusp data. But it is very difficult to find information on how to interpret or understand this.
I hope you can help me in these dark days of saturn retrograde, my wisdom teeth are giving me grief. Thanks.

Mike Mclaughlin (visiting www.astro.com)
--- Wednesday, November 22, 2000 at 15:39 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: House cusps are points on the ecliptic, and every point on the ecliptic (every point on the celestial sphere in fact) has a declination. This is nothing special, and not yet three-dimensional per se.

But you are right, most house systems do have a definition wich is truely 3-dimensional, making the houses something like orange-slices on the sky, not just segments on the ecliptic circle (a notable exception is the Koch house system, which as no 3-dimensional definition and is therefore one of the less intelligent choices of house systems).

It is difficult to show the 3-dimensional extension of the houses on a piece of paper, you should use a spherical surface for it. Many years ago I have invented something which I called the '3-dimensional chart drawing', and it is available in the extended chart selection. You need to print this chart out, it does not work on the screen because we have no foldable screens yet. You have to cut the sheet of paper along the central line (where the little scissors are) and glue the two strips together so that they form a cylinder. Printed side outside. The equator degrees go from 0 .. 360 and get glued together at 180-180 and at 360-0. Then you see the central area of the sky, containing the equator and the ecliptic. When you hold it so that the Ascendant (AC) line is horizontal, you get an approximate view of the houses in three dimensions, and you can see into wich houses the planets really fall. Have fun (and please don't ask for more explanation).

It works because one can approximate the equatorial section of a sphere reasonably well with a cylinder, as long as you don't get into declinations higher than 30 degrees. This is the area where all astrology happens.

I invented this drawing to illustrate primary directions, and in fact we have addidtional chart types based on this one for graphical display of primary directions. I had not put it online, because nobody would understand it and I have no time to answer questions about it. It is there now. The 'addional tables' are really useful here.

I was wondering if anybody has any information on where to find out more about your rising sign. I was also wondering if people who's moon or sun are squared their ascendent experience a dampening effect, or a weakening of your rising sign's essence. I was wondering this because my natal moon is at 24 degrees Taurus, which is squared my rising sign (20 degrees Aquarius) Though my sun is trined my ascendant. Anyway, anyone with any information on this would be of great help to me. Thanks.

How does one can who shares your birthday by last name, if you don't know the birthdate?
Anyone know the d.o.b.(+times) of Moira Shearer and Margot Fonteyn would love to do a comparison of the two dancers.
Anyone know the d.o.b.+ birthtimed of Henri Paul, Dodi Fayed, Reese-Jones??
Any one do a horary about the 1997 car crash invol. Princess Diana? or about Henri Paul. If so much alcohol was in his system, would he not have reeked of it? I can't imagine his state not being noticeable. In the Ritz hotel security videos, Mssr. Paul certainly does NOT appear to be drunk. Any horary done as to whether or not a fiat uno WAS actually involved. Was it the Fayeds or Diana who were under observation, IF indeed such was the case???
Thank you. A very good site.

This is Ashley. I feel so stupid about the E-mail sent earlier. I realize that Uranus was transiting my natal Mercury, and not the other way around. I hope Alois is kind. You probably won't comment at all- and I don't blame you. Indeed- my daily horoscope warned about just such an embarrasing incident (am I too self effacing, or too quick to jump to conclusions, or both!)
Thanks for the free service.

Alois adds: Do I come over so dangerously? Uranus transiting can often last more than a year because it will go retrograde for a few months and then come back over the same point.



I think you have a wonderful website. I am not the expert on astrology, but my daily horoscope lists Uranus transiting Mercury (a conjunction) from March 21, 1999 to November 24, 2000. Is this correct? This is a conjunction lasting over 1.5 years. Or maybe I misunderstand transits. Is it possible that the effect of this conjunction lasts that long? I'm thinking Mercury basically moves around the circle in one year, giving it plenty of time to experience every possible aspect to Uranus. I hope I'm not embarrasing myself here, just wanted to let you know if there is a problem. Thanks so much,
Ashley

Greetings ASTRODIENST! At a very general level, I sometimes question the authenticity, or need (a better word perhaps) for the multitude of catalogued astroids (spelling?). This does however bring to light the question of meteor showers...there was one just recently, on the 17th/18th of November. Alois, and all reading...given the estimated rate of 100 meteors travelling the sky per elapsed second, can this be used along side transits for the day and hour??
Surely a phemonena in the sky of such magnitude could hold bearing amongst the greater, more permanent celistial bodies. thankyou!
ps I missed the meteor shower personally. made me cross - I didn't mind having to wake up at 4am, I just plain forgot! oh, and I love your site! I check it every day!

Annie (visiting www.astro.com)

Alois adds: The multitude of asteroids has no significance for astrology at all, it is just an entertaining name game, to get objects into your chart which carry your own name, etc.

Please don't confuse asteroids and meteors; you would not want to experience an asteroid hitting earth, there would be little interest in astrology left afterward.



I absolutely love your website and I visit it all the time. Thank-you so very, very much!!! My question is about the charts you have for nations..particularly the one for the USA. There is a book out that gives it a Gemini ascendant, I am referring to Gar Osten's book, in light of the past few weeks with the presidential election and
all, maybe Gar's chart is..close? There are also theories out that sometimes other charts are set for events..ones other than the public charts...so called secret charts.
I personally know astrologers who will not give out their birthdata and data they eventually give out is called their public data/chart/but passed off as their true birthdata.
There is also speculation that sometimes governments will draft legislation for public 'view' but there is legislation that has been drafted behind closed doors...and not public. Could this have happened with the birth of the United States? Thanks!!!

Your site has been so amazingly dead-on! Everytime I feel a strong pull to look at my daily astrological influences, I am amazed (well, 95% of the time!!) Perhaps the most astounding reading came a few months back on this site: something was wrong with the site and the results being returned were from 1997. The major influence in my chart for that day had the word 'monastic' in the title. i.e., 'monastic tendencies', or something like that. that happened to be a time when I ordained as a monk in a Buddhist monastery!!! wow!!!

I need to know how to change the time on my chart. My sun should be in the first house not the twelveth. It should be edt +5:00. How do I change the chart to reflect the correct placement. Also, I so much appreciate the info. Is there a number to call to speak to someone so I can get more info. Thanks again.

Mary Ann [ MnospamJuno.com ] (visiting www.astro.com)
Cleveland, Cuyahoga --- Friday, November 17, 2000 at 06:53 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

EDT means 'eastern daylight time' and it is 4 hours west of Greenwich. Eastern Standard Time (EST) is 5 hours west of Greenwich. So your short statement 'should be edt +5:00' is already false to begin with, and with all likelyhood you have been given a false chart by some service which does not offer the quality and reliability as Astrodienst does.

But if you want to change your birth time: Every chart output page has near the top right a link for 'edit data'. I suggest you use that. And no, we don't have a support phone number for our free online service. We only accept calls which refer to shop orders, and even there we prefer e-mail from people in remote time-zones.



Hi!

We do not have that kind of information, exept for Switzerland and Germany. Be aware that many good astrologers don't advertise, as they are booked out all the time without it.



Hello,
Of course, this is a wonderful site. But I was wondering, is there any way to log on to MyAstro? I know I am signed up in there with the email above, and also with my work email... because I couldn't find a way to get to my things from work. I do work on 2 machines at work... Maybe I can only see them from the machine I signed up from? Well, I hate to waste space on your server. I guess I could sign up under a 3rd email.. Did I miss something on how this works?

Thanks a bunch,
Rose Hahn

Alois adds: You should create a 'registered account' on the my astro page. Then you can access it from any computer by logging in. First create, then login. The other way around usually fails.

If you don't create a registered account, but operate only out of a 'guest account', the access relies on a 'cookie' which is limited to the machine from where you visited before, because it is stored there.



I love this site, I come every day just to see what it has instore for me. Keep up the great work =)

Hi,

I would like to know how you can empty the birth information after making charts. I closed the Netscape and opened it again and the information I filled earlier was still on the screen. I wish the birthdata I've used woud disappear.

Otherwise this service if wonderful and I'm very grateful that it exists.

Best wishes

I love your web site and I am thinking to order a report, but I have not made my mind to buy it for a period of time because of the price,the currency of our country is depreciatory recently,it sounds a little expensive to our country people. So I suggest you can promote some reports regularly , I believe many overseas people will purchase your reports,especially Asia's.

There are two ways to get a chart of now; one is to select the place without entering a date, and typing 'now' into the field of the last name. The other is to use the 'old atlas' link in the left column of the homepage.

Why wqas the birth data entry changed? Whay can't i put in the location of where am living so that I can get my solar return and progressed charts? I am very disappointed about this. was this a mistake perhaps? How can I get accurate charts if I cannot put in the laocation of the chart? And I was also able to put in my partner's data for comparison charts. Now I cannot do that as well. Why???

Alois adds: I agree, but: Web browser's dont understand hyphenation. The server does not know the font metric of the client, and therefore correct hyphenation for the display column width cannot be made at the server. Justification without hyphenation creates large inter-word gaps in languages with long words. These do not look pleasing at all.
All our printed reports which you can order have justified text with hyphenation in all langauges we support.



So, I'm still interested in an answer, since the data entered is correct...In
B.F. Hammerslough's book, Forecasting Backward and Foreward he states that a relocated birthtime shouldn't be altered to account for time zones except in the case where daylight saving time is being contrasted with standard time which your program has neglected to do, when using the Extended Chart Selection-Relocation function. Whose method of relocation are you calculating by? Haven't you moved significantly, and then experienced the unique discovery that one method updates your life more closely than another? And, just as an academic thought, why would everyone sharing the same longitudinal meridian around the whole sphere have such a similar ascendant, while if the only differing factor is the latitude - suddenly the ascendant tells a completely new story? Just wondering..

Releau [ N.A. ] (visiting www.astro.com)
Medford, Or --- Wednesday, November 15, 2000 at 05:11 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: There is only ONE method of doing relocation charts. A relocation chart is a horoscope erected for the same abolute moment of time (same UT/GMT value) on a different place. If you fail to understand that, I cannot help you.

If you don't keep UT fixed, but keep local time fixed, it is as if you, for example, would compute a sun-rise-chart on different locations. This of course keeps the Ascendant constant. But this is not what one considers a relocation chart.



It's a gift of great kindess to provide so much data to individuals who are conducting research. This is a site for the person who trully wants to learn astrology.

Alois adds: Interactive Composite (AstroClick Partner) and interactve astro-cartography (AstroClick World) are ready to be released really soon now. The natal we take so serious that it will be a bit longer, because we are writing new text for it.



Why is it that when client -A- moved exactly west 3000 miles (3 time zones, and birthtime correct per Standard/Daylight time) his relocated ascendant backed up a scant 4 degrees but when client -B- moved directly north only a few-hundred miles, his relocated ascendant jumped back 10 degrees? Wouldn't a 3-time-zone difference be approximately equivalent to a 45 degree difference in ascendant?

Releau [ N.A. ] (visiting www.astro.com)
Medford, Or --- Monday, November 13, 2000 at 23:53 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: To do a relocation, you should use the feature via the extended chart selection. If you just run it as a birth chart with a different birth palce, you are VERY LIKELY to make an error with the time. If you do it, check that the UT (Universal times) shown on both charts is the same. If not, you made an error.



I have been a booster of Astrodienst for several years, but now have felt frustrated because the use of the site is devoted to relationships, not just astrology. I am not interested in keeping birth data, just want to see your beautifully drawn charts on occasion.

How do I get the charts drawing page with all the details? Once I have calculated a chart, I find only three spaces for charts, but no warning exists to say three's the limit, until the limit is reached.

I am frustrated because this site maintained the best drawings available either on software at home or on the Internet.

i'd like the option of using the asteroid data bank and all the old features. These seem to be clumsily hidden away.

As i rub the lamp, i have two wishes:
Would it be possible to increase the orbs on aspects to quincunxes? A lot of us feel like quincunxes are quite major aspects, and i always have to go looking for them in your printouts, because their orb is so tiny.
Here's one you've probably heard before: Would it be possible to save the extended chart selection's preferences through 'My Astro.' For example, house system, true node, part of fortune, reduce orbs %, reduce chart size %, etc.

Makawao, HI, USA --- Monday, November 13, 2000 at 21:32 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: I am afraid we cannot change orbes. The quickest way to preserve you complicated selections from the extended chart area is to bookmark the page where a chart with these settings is displayed. Using this bookmark will give you all your settings back and allow you to select any of the current persons in your Astro data list.

Before we think of storing setting on the server, we will have to improve the user inetrface for the extended chart area; we have many more options to offer there, but this doe not have the highest priority in our programming.



Just noticed that on 11/7/2000, Leslie from Cambridge,MA questioned astro on the existence of a town in Vermont. Leslie, the name of the town is spelled Townshend (with a h) in the state of Vermont. I live here! I don't think there's a Townsend, VT (there is a Townsend, MA).

An answer about past lifetimes

In finding out about past lifetimes I would recomend you to check out the moon nodes. The north moon node stands for what you are to evolve in your present lifetime. While the south node shows what energies/experiences that you have with you from past lifetimes. The best book written on this subject according to me is Martin Schulman The moon´s nodes and reincarnation. But really all the planets and points in your chart shows about previous lifetimes. Some other higly recomended books in this area is Myrna Lofthus A spiritual approach to astrology and Isabel M. Hickey Astrology a cosmic science.

Good Luck in your search

Another strange fact about the election is whenever the electoral year has a 0 in it, there is usualy a saturn/jupiter conjunction that year. The scary thing is ALL THE PRESIDENTS were killed who were elected in those times -except Reagan who was very mutch into astrology and knew of the phenomenom. I heard from somwhere that its an Indian curse but I doubt it.

Johnny (visiting www.astro.com)
--- Sunday, November 12, 2000 at 15:39 Universal Time (UT/GMT)



Ha ha, any astrologer worth his salt can tell you what screwed up the United States Election for President!! IT WAS HELD DURING MERCURY RETROGRADE!! To all the readers (Alois and his staff excepted because they already know)when Mercury goes retrograde never sign contracts or start major projects. The results of do so usually range from bad to horrendous. This is an excellent reason to learn more about astrology also buy an up to date ephemeris and learn to read it, you will never be sorry you did.

Here is some of my feeling and interesting facts about the U.S. Presidency as well a prediction.

I voted for Gore but I think he will lose. Who ever wins has an up hill battle in office. I am 58 and it reminds me of the 1960 election. I worked 15 blocks from the JFK assassination site in Dallas Nov.22, 1963. There was so much hate for Kennedy then and it is just like that now for both candidates.

Since 1800 every election held at the beginning of a decade twenty years apart has had unusual results. Out of 9 Presidents elected or reelected in a year beginning a decade six of them died in office.

1800 Thomas Jefferson elected lived to exit office
1820 There was no Presidential election that year
1840 William Henry Harrison died one month after taking office.
1860 Abraham Lincoln was assassinated while in office.
1880 James Garfield was assassinated while in office.
1900 Theodore Roosevelt elected twice and lived to exit office
1920 Warren Harding died while in office.
1940 Franklin D. Roosevelt reelected and dies in office in early 1945.
1960 John F. Kennedy was assassinated while in office.
1980 Ronald Reagan elected but survived an assassination attempt and lived to exit office.
2000 Next President will probably die in office.

Why do I say that? Notice a pattern of 1 lives to exit office then 3 die in office and then 1 lives to exit office and three die in office. With Ronald Reagan living out his terms of office the death cycle is ready to repeat itself.

visting, from NSW, Australia.
Thanks for your comments regarding the North Node and Pluto, Alois. You have mentioned before of your disdain for karmic and new-wave crystal waving astrology...also relating to the North Node and the incorrectly named True Node. I must say, my understanding is that the Chart can be broken down into four segments -
1. Ascendant 2. The Descendant 3. North Node and 4. the South Node. The lower half of the chart relating to the Self, and the Top half relating to all outside the self ie the world.
Are you saying the North and South Nodes are misappropriated and misunderstood entirely? The real function to have been corrupted and disjointed over the years? True enough, the further one seeks to find information relating to past lives within a chart, the higher the rating on the magnifying glass seems to be.
Thank you for your obvious dedication and commitment. May your site rival McDonalds and Microsoft in global fame, recognition and popularity. If you ever find yourself listed on the stock market, look me up (smile)
Blessings of Jove, regards Hannah.

Hannah (visiting www.astro.com)
--- Saturday, November 11, 2000 at 05:49 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: Dear Hannah, please don't my heavily opinionated comments on some astrological factors as 'teachings' or rules. I am mostly a computer programmer who dabbles in astrology since 20 years. I am not an astrologer in the sense that I read charts. I have studied a lot of astrology, and I have worked closely with excellent astrologers for many years, so I know a bit about it. Sometimes I just need to ramble. I probably should not do it in pubic on such a well respected website.

Astrology is not a science with a fixed set of rules, about which there is general agreement. While it has embodied a lot of collective AND indivitual experience over the years, it is still closer to an art than to a science. An artist must find his/her way of doing things, a personal set of rules or framework, which will differ from the framework of other artists. Not all picture or sculptures are the same, are they? The same is true for astrology. Not two astrologers will fully agree what the correct rules and techniques are.

My great teacher Thomas Ring had a view of the lunar nodes which I really like. As you probably know, they are the intersection line between the plane of the Sun's movement (the ecliptic, as seen from earth) and the plane of the Moon's movement. Thomas Ring accordingly sees the Lunar Nodes as points in the horoscope where the Lunar sphere (all which Moon stands for, e.g. our feelings and emotions, the receptivity, imagination and basic feeling tone of a person, sense of rhythm, time and timing ..) and the Solar Sphere (actual core of a person, the inner self, of that which is of central concern, the general vitality and the ability to assert oneself, general tone of being) meet. Ring looks at the nodes in charts where there is otherwise no connection between the Sun and Moon, particularily when either of them is cut off from the rest of the chart, i.e. has no strong aspects. Then the nodes describe for Ring how those two spheres are connected.

There are many different ways to see the Lunar nodes; the traditional view which is still strongly represented in Indian astrology is that they are the really bad guys. They were called drangon heads and tails, because of the solar and lunar eclipses which occur only at the nodes, and where the idea wasy that a dragon eats the Sun.

The 'esoteric' perspective is that the nodes have to do with past or future lives. I am not very interested in those at the moment, I will deal with them when I get there.



This is a great site which I very much appreciate. I perfer your new format over my old astro software and am now using Astrodienst charts for all my readings. My question has to do with synastry charts. I do a lot of compatibility readings and when I put a person with a partner in the extended chart selection page I never get to the synastry chart. Am I missing something? What am I doing wrong?

Alois adds: On the extended chart selection page, there are many optional settings, which you can all ignore. The one you need to use however is the pulldown list labeled 'Please select the type of chart you want. '.
Synastry chart is the fifth entry in this list. The 'partner' setting is only observed if you select an appropriate chart type which needs two persons.



I have been trying to discover something for over a year and no one as yet has been able to help. I wonder if you could.

My daughter, who is two years old, was born on my birthday, May 23rd. And we not only share the same birthday, but also our hour of birth is either the same or about one hour apart.

The reason I have a problem is because my daughter was born in Playa del Carmen, Mexico (near Cancún). The year she was born, 1998, was either the second or third year that Mexico decided to adopt daylight savings time (i.e., put the clocks forward an hour in the summer) and I'm not sure that the astrological charts I've requested take this change of time into account.

On top of that, in 1998, the governor of the state decided that his state should be in the same time zone as Florida, as that is where most of the tourists to Cancun come from. It caused quite an uproar since the school children and many employees had to leave their homes when it was still dark (about 6:30 or 6:45) and the time change was therefore abandoned about midsummer of that same year (yes, it was quite caotic).

Anyway, it was still in effect in May. So although my daughter was born officially at 6:36 in the morning, the real time was actually 4:36 (one hour for daylight savings and one hour for the governor's whim). If the charts I requested take into account daylight savings and/or the governor's whim, then her ascendent is gemini, if not, her ascendent is Taurus.

Also, I was born in Los Angeles, California in 1963 at 4:23 am. If daylight savings was not observed that year (and I haven't been able to find that out yet either) then my daughter and I were born on the same day and only 13 minutes apart (and 35 years, but who's counting?)

Could you help me? I'd like to know if daylight savings was observed in L.A. in 1963 and what my daughter's ascendent really is.

Thank you for your time and sorry for the lengthy explanation.

I think we don't have the complete information for the years 1981/82 and after 1997 in our database yet. I don't have the time at the moment to fix that, I am afraid.

Thanks very much for this web site and the free charts offered. All comments are fine. Regarding the forcast - very uneasy field - what about planets like URANUS / SATURNE / PLUTON. Their passage on the ascendant or midheaven are not taken in condiseration in your forcast.

I love the updated site with its improvements. I always loved the site -- so much so that I put up with the fact that, before the improvements, my computer crashed every time I exited after a reading. Now, no more crashes -- heaven. Today for the first time I read the guestbook, and I think you are a star -- sassy, witty, pithy, opinionated and extremely knowledgeable. So immensely readable that you should have another career using this talent -- or do you already?

Still puzzled: Up until yesterday, the 2:35 am Hatboro PA coordinate always gave the time zone as: 4w DST, but today it's 5w EST - both showing 27 Pisces..While the surrounding towns are are now showing as 4wDST, each showing a 2 Pisces ascendant -- isn't this a bit inconsistent? It makes relocated progressions and solar returns a mess.

About two weeks ago, my personal horoscope said that Mercury had moved into my 9th house. But more recently it has said that Mercury is back in my 8th house. Is this a mistake in the system or is Mercury retrograde?

BluE [ nospamhotmail.com ] (visiting www.astro.com)
Dazed And Confused --- Friday, November 10, 2000 at 04:01 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: Mercury was recently retrograde, which means it is now further back in the zodiac than it was two weeks ago, because, when it is retrograde it goes backward.

We have both, nicely printable ephemerides and graphiocal ephemerides on the site, so you can easily look up the movement of the planets. When you do that and compare it with your chart drawing, you get the complete picture, all by yourself.



i am wondering why, after using astrodienst for two years, that i now have a one degree difference in my calculated ascendant, and my progressed ascendant has changed by almost three degrees from calculations previously made on the site.

George Quinn [ Mnospamaol.com ] (visiting www.astro.com)

Alois adds: Honestly, I think you might be confusing things. Please provide complete data, if you want us to check anything. The outcome of a calculation depends on the data you put in. If you enter a different time or place, you get a different Ascendant.

We might even be able to check two-year old logfiles, if you can tell us the date you ran a chart and the name you used on it, and the birth data. It is a lot of work to dig out those old log files, but we take claims of fals calculation quite serious - and they have always proved to be false claims. Contrary to many websites, we understand what we are doing.



Yo, Yo,Yo astrodienst!! I Love this thang!!! Ya'll got my love. I need to throw somthin out to ya though. Im probably the only african american up in here. I dont think no other negros be up in here. I think you should make charts especialy fro the Black Man. like instead of saying /Male/Female/Event it should say Black Male/ Black Female/BLack Event. And your interpertations daily scopes should read and be desighned for the Ebonic Race. Where all da white woman at?? Keep it real up in the field 'aight!!!! I got nothin but luv fo ya baby!!!

We liked it the way it was in '99. It would automaticly have the the chart for the current present moment -you didnt have to type in the present date cuz it was already there. Dude, we realy dont like having to go back to my astro EVERY FOUR TIMES!! Its so inconvienent. We dont need to book mark anything so it has no purpose. Me ad my partner type in like 500 charts a day and we have to go to that stupid my astro thing like every 4 times in between. Dude you gotta show some respect to your readership like we are loyal but your like all messin with us man, c'mon dude help a brotha out man. Back in the day man '99 just like that bro.

Your report a problem is not responding today...
Why do these coordinates:
12 MAY 1948
2:35 AM EST, zone 5

always bring up an ascendant of 27 Pisces when by using any of several neighboring birthtowns (a mere few minutes' drive) such as:
Willow Grove, Pa

Philadelphia, Pa
the actually correct ascendant of about 2 Pisces comes up?

Hello all my fellow twins. If I'm not mistaken, I posted this question when I first started reading the guestbook back in July, but I never got a reply, so I'll ask again. If there are any astrological twins of mine out there, please reply. I'm a sun sign Gemini, with Aquarius rising. And my moon is in Taurus, though that isn't absolutely neccesary when responding.

__________________________________________________

For our resident expert:
I also have a question(s) about family and astrology etc. Exluding house aspects, I was wondering if you tend to find a lot of significant (Opposed, Conjuct, Square) aspects regarding sun signs in family members. I'm wondering because I'm a Gemini, as my father is, and we are both opposed my youngest brother's sun, which is in Sagittarius (His moon is in Scorpio, opposing my Taurus moon also). Also, my mother is a sun sign Scorpio, which is opposed to my other brother's Taurus sun (Who's moon is in Aquarius, squared her sun). I dont want to get too complicated, so I'll leave it at that, but I'm sure you also see some of the significant aspects in mine and my brother's moons to each other's sun. From your experience, do things like this tend to happen often???

I'd also like to say that even though you have told me before that relationships are largely influenced my house aspects, and other planets, I do believe that basic astrological aspects, like sun to sun, and moon to sun, play very large rolls in a relationship, and can be very pronounced at times. I can say this because of the four people in my life that are closest to me, two are Pisces, and one is a Virgo. (I must have had it a little too easy in a past life)

One more thing, I know this is probably redundant to you by now, but I've got to say that this site surpasses all others I've found online. All of us out here really appreciate the hard work and dedication you put into perfecting the site and responding to our (pretty dumb at times) constant questions. And thanks for taking the time to read my rant.

Relating to the inquiry on the relevance of Pluto, I myself have found interpretations of Pluto to be particularly relevant to myself (being a Double Scorpio with my North Node also in Scorpio). I have read Jeffrey Wolf Green's books on Pluto and have found his insight to be very provocative and beneficial. Have you been able to read his work? I'm wondering why you believe Pluto's interpretations to be overestimated. Also, if Pluto is overly interpreted, then would you say that Scorpios should really focus on Mars, it being the ancient ruler? Does the same hold true of every sign that has a modern and ancient ruler? Again, I find the modern ruler to be extremely relevant in interpretating charts and life themes as a whole.

I ordered the child's horoscope for my twins where they were born (1997) The were born 1 minute apart and I was told that as they are only 1 minute apart they have the same horoscope. However as they are now 3 and half years old I see very different traits in them. Different personalities. Can you explain how I should read the horoscope for each differently?

keizer [ nospamwho.ch ] (visiting www.astro.com)
geneva, switzerland --- Wednesday, November 8, 2000 at 12:20 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: I know a bit about that too, having twin daughters, twin siblings and two pairs of twin uncles.... Our list of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) accessible from the Homepage contains a section on twins. I quote:

Twins often have almost the same birth chart - and yet they are different, separate people. How is this to be explained? Each chart contains several inner themes or archetypal figures, depending on what term you use. Usually, these themes are the life scenario of one single person, who will be able to identify easily and gladly with some of them, while "projecting" other parts onto people and things around him. Twins divide the chart up between them. Usually, the "alpha twin" is stronger and takes his or her pick of the themes, leaving the rest to the other. This distribution of contents can change in the course of a life. Research on twins has shown that when twins are separated, they often grow up living very similar lives, since they can both take on those themes, which naturally come up first, without the risk of losing identity.

Liz Greene writes about this issue in the Child's Horoscope introduction:

This child is one of a pair of twins. He/she shares with the other twin an almost identical birth horoscope. But any parent of twins will recognise that each has his or her own distinctive personality. Twins, sharing many personality characteristics, often try especially hard to define their own psychological territory, and often they do this by a kind of "division" of the birth chart. One twin will appropriate certain features of the horoscope while the other twin will appropriate the rest. Twins tend to polarise. In their need to assert a separate individuality they may both unconsciously avoid sharing qualities, which they fear will make them too like the other. The perceptive parent may observe that in early childhood twins periodically exchange roles, each one trying out personality traits which the other was displaying a little while earlier. The polarising process sets in a little while later on. As they grow older and develop separate lives twins usually find it easier to own and express those qualities they "gave away" to the other twin in early life. And the unique spark of individuality within will always ensure that, even if they look alike, they will remain distinct individuals with a unique journey through life.



great site! very exacting.
A question - its been said, which ever house Pluto lands in, is the obsession of the individual. Does this sound correct Alois?
If the North Node also falls in the same house as Pluto, could this be said to be benefical ie, the obsession of the individual correlating with the path or future direction?
Thank you, and continue your fine Swiss excellence!!

Hannah (visiting www.astro.com)
--- Wednesday, November 8, 2000 at 08:25 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: Obsession is a strong word. I have had a quick look the house placements of Pluto in my list of family and friends, keeping your aphorism in mind. I would say that I do not agree, Pluto's house placement does not indicate the area of obsession. Not every person has one, really, or they have several. People are a mixed bunch, simple rules don't fit all, and often you have to beat them hard to make them fit.

Still, such aphoristic rules have their value and throw some light into the always complex interpretation of an astrological symbol or archetype. But keep in mind, whatever you say about a planet, and is shorter than ten pages, will be a limited view of the truth.

Why a Pluto-Node conjunction should be particularily beneficial espcapes me. The master of obsession meets Rahu, the devourer? Like Pluto, the Lunar nodes are fashionable objects in some circles of modern astrology, and have attracted all kinds of 'spiritual' and 'karmic' interpretations. I have some doubts about the value of karmic speculation. Often it is used as an easy way out, instead of dealing with the nitty-gritty issues of one's life and one's shadow.

I love your website!! Absolutely fantastic!!! There is one thing I do not understand though. I was born May,1969 in Alberta, Canada. The chart my astrology instructor did for me says Mountain Standard Time...yet when I do my birthchart on your system it says Mountain Daylight Time. My teacher says that Alberta was not on Daylight time until 1972! Help!!If this is so, all my charts on astrodienst are out by an hour. Keep up the good work and many blessings of light!!!!

--- Tuesday, November 7, 2000 at 22:46 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: [Note: see red message below where I correct what I say here; I kept the lengthy discourse because it throws some light on the complexity of the situation]

In 1967 and 1969 there was a small part of Alberta which had daylight saving time. You did not mention the town were you were born. Out of our list of about 320 towns in Alberta, 9 are affected by this rule.

These are:
Devon,AB,53n22,113w44
Edmonton,AB,53n33,113w28
Fort Saskatchewan,AB,53n43,113w13
Gibbons,AB,53n50,113w20
Leduc,AB,53n16,113w33
Legal,AB,53n57,113w35
Morinville,AB,53n48,113w39
Sherwood park,AB,53n31,113w19
St Albert,AB,53n38,113w38
These are all near Edmonton, and I do not know why this area deviated from the rest of Alberta. Our source is Thomas Shanks, International Atlas, ACS.
I tend to believe the sources which present finer details better than those who claim 'all of the state followed the same rule'. Why should someone invent the fine detail?

To get the truth, I recommend you research local newspaper archives in Edmonton. The dates for turning DST on and off were 23 April 1967 - 29 Oct, and 27 April 1969 to 26 October. Usually the newspapers print something in the days around the time change date, often in the weather section where also information like sunrise / sunset is mentioned. Please let us know if you find anything out. It should have been mentioned in the paper if Edmonton deviated from the rest of the state.


Just to give you an idea of the complexity of timezone changes in some parts of central Canada, I quote below another source, concerning Saskatchewan (this source however makes no mention of any exceptions in Alberta). Obviously there is a lot of research to be done, and it must be done by the Canadian astrological community, because astrologers are the only group of the population for whome the precise history of timezones and daylight saving time is essential.

[The source is elsie.nci.nih.gov, the modern bible of timezone research ]

From Paul Eggert (2000-10-02): Shanks writes that since 1970 most of this region has been like Regina. Some western towns (e.g. Swift Current) switched from MST/MDT to CST in 1972. Other western towns (e.g. Lloydminster) are like Edmonton. Matthews and Vincent (1998) write that Denare Beach and Creighton are like Winnipeg, in violation of Saskatchewan law.

From W. Jones (1992-11-06): The. . .below is based on information I got from our law library, the provincial archives, and the provincial Community Services department. A precise history would require digging through newspaper archives, and since you didn't say what you wanted, I didn't bother.

Saskatchewan is split by a time zone meridian (105W) and over the years the boundary became pretty ragged as communities near it reevaluated their affiliations in one direction or the other. In 1965 a provincial referendum favoured legislating common time practices.

On 15 April 1966 the Time Act (c. T-14, Revised Statutes of Saskatchewan 1978) was proclaimed, and established that the eastern part of Saskatchewan would use CST year round, that districts in northwest Saskatchewan would by default follow CST but could opt to follow Mountain Time rules (thus 1 hour difference in the winter and zero in the summer), and that districts in southwest Saskatchewan would by default follow MT but could opt to follow CST.

It took a few years for the dust to settle (I know one story of a town on one time zone having its school in another, such that a mom had to serve her family lunch in two shifts), but presently it seems that only a few towns on the border with Alberta (e.g. Lloydminster) follow MT rules any more; all other districts appear to have used CST year round since sometime in the 1960s.


Tina writes later: I was told that this error regarding daylight time in Alberta has been rectified on the most recent astrology programs..after some AB astrologers wrote to the company and complained. I do know the Edmonton Public library has an online service now and it does have a blurb about daylight time in it's reference? file. Keep up the good work Astrodienst...your service is greatly appreciated, you do awesome work.

Alois adds: Can you send some documentation in writing, maybe by fax? Our fax number is in the 'contact' area on the homepage.

Later: I received email from Ariane Hughes who reports that she has personally researched the newspaper archives in Edmonton for the dates in question. She finds no indication of DST in 1967 and 1969, while the later undisputed switch to DST in 1972 is reported as expected. Given this information, we have updated our database and deleted the DST for the 9 towns listed above in 1967 and 69. Thank you, Ariane.



A facinating and inspiring site, with so much dedication and work. Truly a masterpiece and reference for many years to come. You must be congratulated on such a fine effort, makes me want to know more about astrology.

Hello!
I am thrilled that you now have MY ASTRO to offer! I use your site all the time, and now I don't have to reenter all the data. Thank you for excellent service!
I also have a request... Would it be possible, under Chart Selection, to have a chart made without the houselines going all the way into the centre? Naturally, ASC,DC,MC and IC are required, but it would be nice if the inner wheel could be free of all unnecessary lines, should one wish to draw in the aspects oneself.
You see, I am currently attending a three-year astrology school and we use different colors for the aspects. I would appreciate a reply if you have the time.
Keep up the GOOD WORK! 'smile*

Brilliant site, now I never have to put my details in (i know there were always shortcuts before, but I was lazy). thank you kind sirs and ladies.

I have 2 questions:
I am a bit of an astrological freak in that I was born at a time with NO planets (unless you count nodes) in feminine signs, ie. I only have planets in fire air signs. Anyone else have this experience, especially any females? it would be interesting to see how people feel affected...

(2) Anyone know how to use astrology to enhance one's LUCK? We had the Melbourne Cup today, it tends to set you wondering. I imagine good Jupiter aspects, but wouldn't mind knowing some more... Maybe this is how Astrodienst manages to fund its fine work, by having a set of astrologers simply working on looking for lucky breaks?? Alois ???

would be interested to hear what anyone else has to say

Hello Astrodienst Staff,
I really like your site, and I'm happy you provide the free charts. I've noticed a change in the readings, and I was wondering about the reason

When I first signed on, my free reading forecast some intriguing development in the immediate future. For example, it said I would encounter a period of renewed creativity in November, and in December, I would start a relationship with someone I was drawn to.

But when I checked the forecast again, about a week ago, all the forecasts had changed. The positive forecasts were replaced with somewhat negative, non-committal messages about the future.

What happened?

N Brown [ nospamyahoo.com ] (visiting www.astro.com)
Phoenix, USA --- Monday, November 6, 2000 at 17:58 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: The 'short report forecast' is not a complete reading of your upcoming trends. It makes a selection. Now, when a different period of time is considered, it is possible that some transits wich made it through the selection process a few weeks before now don't make it. They have been pushed aside by other, later developments.

It is a good idea to print the forecast out when you run it, and refer to the printed copy. This will not change! By combining this printout with a new forecast a few months later you can actually get a more complete picture.

The still better idea is to order either the report 'Transits of the Year' by Robert Hand, or 'Yearly Horoscope Analysis' by Liz Greene. There the issues are really evaluated and the important themes are specifically shown as such. The reading is much more in-depht than the free short report. Please visit the samples section (link in left column on the homepage) for complete examples.

Dear Astrodienst Staff,

My question is about the planetoid, Chiron. I know that it is the wounded healer. I have heard that it is often thought of as ruling either Sagittarius or Virgo. Personally, I tend to agree with the people who think it relates to Virgo... The idea of healing and the crystalline wisdom of Chiron, the hand - healer - seems very earthy to me. Do you think it relates to Virgo more than Sagittarius?

Alois adds: My answer is: no, this is beyond the realm of astrology.

But all kinds of opinions are around in astrological circles, there is not one concise set of rules. Some astrologers believe in their own omnipotence and omniscience, and of course they find their followers. So you will certainly find someone who claims to read charts for souls in heaven, hell or wherever they like them to be.



I don't understand in reviewing all the complaints of changing data... it is so easy..I like your site and it is now my favourite. One new feature that would be nice (but difficult I know... is) an automatic e-mail of the daily horoscopes.

There must be something wrong with me. Despite the wonderful praises that your horoscopes are recieving around the world, I can't seem to find any connections between mine and my personality, nor between your daily readings and the events in my life. I felt that it was perhaps because I do not live where I was born, but now I have made the adjustment for the place of reference , but the predictions hardly changed. I really like the way the site is set up though.

Why don't you use the transits of the lunar nodes when you make predictions. Are they irrelevant? I was under the impression that they are important.
Do you do Astrocartography stuff too? I am going to be living in Holland for a few months and I would like to see what it holds in store for me.
Cheers

Alois adds: There is nothing wrong with you, 1st of London. I think most of the praise we receive is for the Astro*Intelligence reports which we SELL and which are unique among astrological computer reports. Our free reports are more simplistic in approach (they are at least as good as the stuff which other sites charge money for). They have their value too for entertainment and learning of single factor readings.

To create a report is a LOT OF WORK and the talent to write good - even cookbook - text is rare. The rights to use material for publishing are very expensive. Astrodienst AG has paid six-digit dollar figures for the rights on the text we use now for free readings, not to mention editing, translation and programming cost. For many astrological techniques or chart factors we simply do not possess report quality text material. The absence of reports or of readings for particular elements does not imply that we consider them unimportant.

Regarding your question about other services we offer: Please look around on the site. We are not the easter bunny and do not hide our eggs. If you don't find it, it probably does not exists.

I recently purchased a personal Horoscope Calendar and am trying to compare it to some of the free info on-line. I'm not disappointed (and do understand that the freebie version is less detailed), but wonder how some of the longer transits are measured.
For instance:
Moon in the 12th House 12 exact at 08:34
activity period from 3 November 2000 to 6 November 2000.

Is this time exact on the first day of activity, the published day of activity, some point in-between? And they don't necessarily show up in my purchased manual, even though the activity is over a short time period. Please advise. Thanks, -arainn

Atlanta, USA --- Saturday, November 4, 2000 at 04:14 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: In the case of a house transit, it is the moment when the planet crosses the house cusp. In the printed version, you have to read the duration from the time scale graphics. We had to save space in the narrow daily column. In the online edition we have more space (you can scroll), but no graphics, so that we use words.

In the general case, to explain the duration of a particular transits is not trivial because of the complicated back-and-forth movement of most planets. The transits are measured from first entry into orb to last exit from orb. For the outer planets, this can be several years! In the printed calendar, there is a graphical 'time bar' indicating that. As an example, see the page http://www.astro.com/samples/hke/hke_015.htm in our online samples. Please scroll to the rigth bottom of that page, for Wednesday 15 Oct 1997, Saturn trine Pluto. There is a dotted 'time bar' from Ju 97 to Fe 98. When it is dotted, the transit is out of orb, when it is solid, it is in orb. The begin of that particular transit is to the left off the time scale, indicated by tiny arrows. In the daily horoscope it would probably say: Saturn trine Pluto, from Jan 1997 to Feb 1998. The information in the printed calendar is more precise as it lets you differentiate the active from the passive phases. But of course the transit is important all the time, until it is finally over.
The explanation is at the end of each printed calendar; online it would be page http://www.astro.com/samples/hke/hke_107.htm



I absolutely love the modifications made to the website, but I was wondering why in addition to my natal data, why I can't input my current location for transits and solar charts. Thank you in advance for you response.

In response to Ariane, from Darlene or whatever her name is....you really do have a knack for putting your foot in it don't you.. In critisizing all the US Nationals, presumably because you assume me to be one, you have made it apparent that you are unaware of the origin of the author of many of the services free or for sale on this web-site. Liz Greene has been known and respected for years by many as one of the very best of our time.Those of us who have studied and value her work appreciate that she does not have to give it away at all. Her books always sell! Anyway having put that record straight if you know of any Swiss web-sites offering free chocolate or cuckoo clocks or better still banks offering free samples, please let met know, and thanks for the free laugh! If you are looking for help, try honey instead of vinegar next time! To Alois perhaps someone else will start a web-site about computer technology and web-sites so you can focus on your own work. Either way the volume of positive feedback eclipses the negative and I am sure that inspires. This Mercury retrograde in Scorpio has certainly been interesting!!!!

I was looking for information and ran across a feedback comment from a Mrs. Dana Dorfinn regarding Hitler and libra ascendant. I have studied astrology in many different forms for the past 30 years. Mrs. Dorfinn, I suggest, before you start making assumptions in astrolgoy, you should get your data correct. The majority of serial killers have libra asc.! Though, Hitlers command on people could be the fact that he had his moon in Capricorn. I know becauce I have my moon in Capricorn and I am great at hypnotism! Good luck in your research

why do you have an event button when all it accepts is gender either male or female?

Alois adds: It accepts event data without any problem, and you can do all kinds of chart drawings for them. You cannot do chart readings for events, because all our interpretations were written for human beings, not for other astrologcial objects.



How do you change people or change your wrong information-someone said you could do it but I just tried and it won't let me.

Hi,

My chart shows my true node as having direct motion (in Sagittarius). My brother says that that's not possible. Can someone shed some light on this? Thanks!

Alex [ nospamyahoo.com ] (at www.astro.com)
Denver, USA --- Friday, November 3, 2000 at 06:13 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: The so-called and badly named 'true node' waggles around and indeed has short spells of forward motion. I personally use the unfavourably named 'mean node'. You find more technical information about the True node in the Swiss Ephemeris documentation, http://www.astro.com/swisseph/swisseph.htm, chapter 2.2.2

You get an excellent view of the waggling motion of the 'true' node in the extended chart selection, Graphical Ephemeris for One year.

Alois adds: It is the moment every month, when the Moon passes over the same angle to the Sun as it had on your birth. It is of interest for women who study the Jonas birth control method. I don't endorse Jonas' theory for prevention of pregnancy, it is just another apple between the knees. But for women who have trouble conceiving I think anything is worth a try. The Jonas Lunar fertility calendar is among the free chart selection. The day marked in the daily horoscope is just a little reminder. For those many customers who use the printed and spiral-bound edition of the Personal Horoscope Calender (with 365 daily horoscopes) it is very convenient that the days with the Lunar angle are morked on top. Our program outputs it only for women in a fertile age group. Because it is in the printed calendar, it shows up also in the free daily horoscope.



I've been using astro.com for about 3 years and never thought to drop you a line to thank you for providing such an excellent services.

Regardless of how great everyone thinks your system is, there is always room for improvement. If you are going to provide a service to the public, whether it BE FREE or NOT, Astrodienst should be open to user feedback. It is called 'customer service' and a very big part of daily consumer life in Canada. I have heard that customer service in the USA is sorely lacking, which is probably why Darlene (or whatever her name was) will take anything she can get for free..the lady from Los Angeles? that responded to my last comment of the 26th of October.
I have taken your suggestion, Alois, and read your directions but I find them very confusing and not simple or concise...in short they do not answer my questions.
I do not like the fact that I can only do up 4 charts before I have to go in a delete them to put up more charts. This is time consuming and a distraction.
So I registered for your 100 chart bonus deal. Only to find that I am unable to edit the data on a chart I had posted. I have tried many times to get to a new set of data...even deleting the data I had posted in my new hundred chart folder, and it still will not let me change the chart that shows up...WHY? Basically, I keep mysteriously going back to the initial data I posted when I first logged on.
Now...in closing I will not dispute you provide a very valuable service...and it is appreciated by myself and other astrologers I am in contact with.
Since the Swiss pride themselves on their superior craftsmanship....in all areas, like making chocolate, carpentry, banking systems...etc. etc. I hope that you, Alois, and your Astrodienst team will uphold this tradition and do your countrymen proud and sort out the legitimate problems users of Astrodienst face. Good day from Canada.

Alois adds: To edit a set of chart data, please to use the 'edit' link from eiter 'my astro' page or from one of the chart output pages. When in edit mode, 'continue' must be pressed as often as necessary to get out of the entry form. If you escape by any other means out of the data entry form, the results are not saved. This is how the Web browser works.

If you continue to observe a problem, please use the bug report form accessible at the bottom of most pages. There it is essential that you describe in detail EVERY step required to reproduce the problem. This means: record every keypress and mouseclick from first accessing the site until the problem becomes manifest. Only when we can understand and reproduce what you have done and observed, an analysis by our support staff is possible. It is helpful if problem reports are made without a nagging undertone.

Be assured that we listen well to our users, but less to those with a continually negative attitude, Ariane. Please stop nagging us about any lack of customer service on this site. It is so untrue that it just makes us angry. There is always the option of using other websites if you don't like ours, and this might be the best choice for you.



Mrs Dana Dorfinn, Micheal Jordans ascendant IS Tauras. He was born on Febuary 17, 1963 nospam 10:20am in Brooklyn New York. I feel, as well as many others that Hindu astrology and moving the ascendant back and forth is not accurate at all. Tropical has the most credibility and all the others seem to be fluff. It is trivial to say that having a Aries ascendant makes a better athlete than a Taurus sighn (its a myth). Mr. Jordans persona AND planets are consistent with his ascendant. Getting to Hitlers chart, his ascendant is niether Taurus or Aries BUT LIBRA. Hitler was a hypnotic speaker and this could be attributed to the fact that he has a Uranus opposition Mercury on his ascendant. Like Jordan its also trivial to say that Hitlers ascendant couldnt be Libra because he was sutch a horrible man. I mean thats just a narrow view, cookbook astrology -right Alois?

Alois adds: Thanks Horace, I could not have said it better. A bit of cookbook astrology is always nice to have (like AstroClick Love), for entertainment or as a teaching tool to learn single factor delineation, but one should know that it takes quite a bit more to UNDERSTAND a person.



Thankyou ALois for updating the programme, its great. Just one question: What does bQ mean? I could not understand the Astro Dictionary interpretation. I have only just begun studying esoteric astrology, and your site is a wonderful tool to help people in their evolution.

Your site is wonderful! I also have chart software at home, but I love being able to access your site from anywhere and get a chart.

I have two suggestions for improvement, though. First, I often do charts for right now to see what the current positions of planets is, and it would be really nice to be able to get a current chart by simply entering my location (seems like it should not be too hard to calculate what date and time it is at that location). As it stands, I have to add a person called Today, then edit that person's data every time I want a current chart.

Second, it would be really nice to be able to save preferences for chart settings. I have certain settings I always use, like Koch houses, display the major asteroids (Juno, Ceres, Vesta, Pallas Athena), use 75% size (because the 100% prints too big for US standard size paper). I saw at least one other person suggested this, and you said they could actually already do this by bookmarking the chart output page, but this method doesn't save settings for the asteroids (it works for the house system).

Anyway, thanks for making this great site available! I've recommended your site to lots of other astrology students.

Laura (at www.astro.com)
Santa Cruz, CA, USA --- Thursday, November 2, 2000 at 21:14 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: The feature to get a 'horoscope of the moment' is already there. Two ways to access it:

a) in the natal entry form, please click on the [i] button in front of the date field, and in the help popup click on 'special date entry' and read the top item. It is anyway really worthwile to click on any [i] button if you find one. They contain rather helpful context sensitive [i]nformation.
b) from the home page, use the link 'Old Atlas Access' in the left column. This is probably the more convenient method.

Please be aware that also each 'Chart of the Moment' gets stored in your account. You will occasionally have to use the 'my atro' page to delete some of the unwanted items, to avoid filling up too many data.



This website is continually moving forward, evolving and I cannot even begin to tell you how it has changed my life. Thank you...

I also, (12th house Sun, Moon, Mercury, Chiron,etc.) have privacy concerns...If I'd known that you were stocking-piling my data...I never would have submitted it in the first place!!!!

Thanks so much for this site. The new changes are much better where it keeps a record of all chart data under one user name. I would, of course, like to have more than the alloted number. We have five daughters and ten grand children and it was nice to be able to enter and save the data for each so we can go back and check things without having to reenter all the birth info again and again. Would you consider increasing the number? Also, on the Free Horoscope page an option to switch to a different person/chart would be helpful at the top like on the daily page.

carlsbad --- Thursday, November 2, 2000 at 15:14 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: I don't quite understand. The limit is currently 100 natal data for a registered account. Should really be enough.

Any horoscope output page has a person pulldown. The page where you make the choices does not need one, really (and would technically hard to implement). If you come from 'My Astro', the person you clicked there is already pre-selected. Otherwise just make the person selection in the chart output page. If you want to work with a particular person's chart for a longer period, make it the 'top choice' in 'My Astro' with the red-arrow feature.



Comments: Your services are outstanding, and particularly the new database. Nevertheless I would like to suggest two further improvements:

1. A sort function for the Astro Data.
2. A possibility to save user preferences for drawing the chart wheels (chart style, house system, size etc.)

Thanks!
Kjetil :)

(at www.astro.com)
Oslo --- Thursday, November 2, 2000 at 15:14 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: Thanks, happy to answer:

1) not trivial, the space in the person pulldown is tight, and there are often same-name entries, so it is a good idea to keep them in order of creation. Anyway, we do not intend to replace your own astrology software fully when it comes to large data collections. A tip: keep several named accounts.

2) a bookmark into the chart output page will do that for you quite well. You can then select any chart of another person with the same set of settings you chose for this bookmarked chart, by using the person pulldown list.
A bookmark into the settings page would not do, as its url does not contain your chosen settings, only the chart page contains the settings in the URL.



To the message: Looking at the Basketball Great Micheal Jordans chart I notice his ascendant is Tauras -It makes sence on the acount of the planets being in the right houses and to his persona. BUT TAURAS?? Arent these people slow, fat and dimwited lazy with no direction but to sit on the couch watching television. I dont know, I just dont know...
Horace Green [ wheatnet ]

Hi, I am not aware of Michael Jordans date, but it is very probable that in sidereal astrology, Michael Jordan is ascendant Aries. You can verify this in the extended chart selection by changing from Western geocentric (tropical) to hindu geocentric (sidereal) (although I dont completely understand the association with hindu, because its far from the truth to say only hindus use this kind of charts, it should be called eastern or ancient because how astrology started was by looking up in the sky, and so sidereal). Please write back your results, I am very interested in the conclusion. One famous case of ascendant taurus that doesnt fit in tropical astrology is the case of Hitler! Hitler ascendant taurus? Seems weird, but in sidereal, wich fallows the true movement of the stars and constellations, he is aries, doesnt it make a bit more sense(the sign of success and ambition)! You think what you want, and keep on your search for the truth. Also to webmaster, I find it quite deceiving that you seem to answer only to the emails you choose to. I wrote a very nice email asking simple question seeking information about your site 1 day ago and you just decided to skip it.. Anyway keep on the good work!

Indeed I make my personal choices about what I like to answer. I don't know why that would be 'deceiving'. It is obvious, for any reader of this guestbook.

The question you had asked - offering different techniques for interpretation - has been answered in this guestbook several times. Web browsers have a feature 'search within page..' so that it is not hard to search within the guestbook archive for keywords. technique might be a good keyword. oct 3 2000 ist one of the recent days when this questions was answered.

Recently I have answered more questions than usual, mostly concerning the great changes on our site for which I have to answer. By the way, we even have a FAQ list now, accessible from the homepage. It is not yet as extensive as I would like it to be, but it does answer some frequently asked questions.



Hi sir/madan,
I've notice that you change the web page setting recently,which looks great. However there is one thing I don't like which is when we enter our name into the system, eg. when we enter our detail
look for daily horoscope service,when I turn off
the computer somehow next time when i turn on the computer my name still appear on the system.
Is there any way I can delet my name so next user

Thanks again for having this wonderful information available for everyone. I have a question about the dates used for the events listed in the forcast section. They differ from the date for the same event (transits) shown on the daily chart selection. I'm not sure if the format is to show when the most significant events are occurring in relationship to everything in the chart or if there are errors. I know certain transits show up on the daily forcast on some days and not others even though the dates are in effect. Reading the information about the selection process the programming uses I understand the intent. I'm wondering if it is the same for the forcast section. Thanks for clarifing.

Alois adds: I would be happy to investigate this propblem but it has been impossible to reproduce.

PLEASE: use the bug report form (see bottom of most pages for a link) and record exactly all steps you make, to allow our support staff to reproduce the problem.

With all steps we mean: from the moment you contact our website, plaese describe every keypress or mouseclick you make, until the problem appears.

please use two windows, one with the bug report form to enter the description of your steps (you can also use your email program and address the mail to nospamastro.ch), the other with the normal view were you perform your data entry.

I am afraid this tedious procedure is the only way to communicate to us precisely what problem you encounter. If we cannot observe a problem ourselves, we cannot fix it.

In the natal data entry form, make sure that you have filled in every field. If there is a red warning message near any field, you must read the message and modify the data accordingly. Unless you modify all data so that no red warning message remains, you will never be able to complete data entry, even when you hit the 'continue' button with a hammer.



I was never so lost on your web site as I am now. It used to be really easy to go up, calculate a chart quickly, and then go. Most of the charts that I calculate are not worth my saving them at this site. Also, when I calculate a partner's chart, the reports still comment on the original entry, not the partner's info.

It is too difficult to just calculate a chart quickly. For me, the site redesign fails to quickly provide a chart like it used to.

Fragen Sie am besten Microsoft oder Adobe, wie man Acrobat korrekt installiert. Oder speichern Sie die PDF-Files ab und laden Sie sie mit Acrobat offline ausserhalb des Browsers.

Alois adds: Alle Länder der Welt mit Ausnahme Englands registrieren amtlich die Geburtszeit. Wenn man ein korrektes Horoskop will, sollte man sich die Mühe machen, diese herauszufinden. Aus Datenschutzgründen wird normalerweise nur die betreffende Person selbst die Auskunft beim Geburtenregister erhalten können. Anfragen sollte man schriftlich machen, ein Retourcouvert beilegen, ausdrücklich 'Auszug aus dem Geburtenregister mit Uhrzeit' verlangen, nicht einfach eine Geburtsurkunde. Als Beleg für die Autorisierung solte man die Namen der Eltern genau mit angeben. Die Beilage von ca. 10 CHF bzw dem Aequivalent in fremder Währung in bar fördert die Auskunftsfreude des Verwaltungspersonals.

Sie können in unserer Eingabemaske die Uhrzeit aber sehr wohl auf 'unbekannt' stellen. dann wird nur eine stark eingeschränkte Horoskopauswahl möglich sein. Es hat absolut keinen Sinn, diese Einschränkung durch Eingabe einer Phantasiezeit zu umgehen.



Hi, your site is terrific. Its user friendly and is great for learning the basics. But as I progress along my learning of astrology I am interested in using charts of other types of astrology that you offer in your extended chart selection, and I find it very deceiving that I cant get the great interpretations I get while using tropical astrology, as for the other charts that you propose in the extended chart selection.

Will this be available oneday? I would love to interpret different kind of charts with your great software and be able to compare the different astrologys. I think its important for everyone searching the truth to be open minded and not set on one type of astrology before exploring other possible ways of interpretation.

Have you ever considering hosting full-day seminars on astrological techniques and offering to teach people how to use your site effectively in their work? I know that there are people who would easily pay 50 or 100 for a full-day class to learn about the all the alternative chart presentations that are possible. You could go on the road and have the class in various metropolitan areas.

But it might be a great idea for someone out there to teach others to use our site by writing a manual/book. We would be happy to publish it online.

Also astrologers who teach classes could introduce the use of our site One warning I need to add: We will certainly rework the site again, like all the Internet it is a rather dynamic entity which evolves over time.

Tucson AZ, usaI --- Wednesday, November 1, 2000 at 09:23 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: I wouldbe glad to help but I am afraid I don't understand the questions.

An event chart is a natal chart of a non-person, where you mark the 'gender' as event. Of course you can create such a chart, why would otherwise the gender choice 'event' exist?

I do not know what 'a daily chart accessible with time zone changes' is supposed to be. Please explain what you are talking about. Please try to name the thing properly. A 'chart' in the context of astrology is a drawing with the round zodiac. If you speak about something else, please make it very clear what you mean.

The quickest way to create a 'Chart of the moment' is via the link 'Old Atlas Query' in the left column of the homepage, the last in the section 'Astrodienst Services'. Like most links, this remained unchanged from the previous release of the website. The only difference is that those links are not underlined now, but if you move your mouse over them the cursor becomes a little pointing finger as with all clickable objects. This tries to indicate that you can click on it.



Thank you for updating your site. It was wonderful before because your observations are so well-articulated, but now it is easier to read and quite modern-looking. Nice job. Good site, best on the Web of its kind.

Thank you for a wonderful web site which I use regularly. My apologies if I have not searched thoroughly - but do you sell 'astrology software'? Others such as 'Solarfire' and 'WOW' do - however I really enjoy your astrologer's insights and explanations.

Is this something you may make available in the future? Once again thank you for sharing this life - changing information - your efforts are very much appreciated!

Kind regards

Alois adds: Thanks for the feedback. We don't produce software to run on PCs, it is a market which never interested me - I always liked the bigger irons in computing. I personally think that astrology software will become a still smaller niche market than it is now, as free web application servers like ours will be better solutions for the vast majority of users.

But yes, we also sell WOW, see our online shop. And in German, we also sell Peter Fraiss' program Sarastro.



Dear Astrodienst

I am very grateful to be able to get charts from Astrodienst....at first I found the new system not so 'user friendly' : however after one week I am finding ways to get thru the system more quickly.

As of last week, were you aware that New Zealand had changed to daylight saving - I think on the 1st October 2000.

Thanking you so much for your service.

Astrological Greetings to everyone! Helenursula

Alois adds: thanks for reminding us about the timezone, our tables for New Zealand had ended in 2000 and I have fixed this now for the next few years.

I am sure everybody will like the new site ones the pains of transition are over. We are working hard to solve some performance problems we do have, and are making great progress in that area.



Sorry to see the site change. It's very clumsy now, trying to navigate through the chart selections and data entry.

I guess I'll get to know it as before, but new is not always improved.

THANK GOD YOU'RE THERE, THOUGH! Your site is a blessing no matter what form it takes!!!

Preciate your web-site very much, but I am dissapointed of the low printer-quality of the chart-drawing.

Hope you in the future can include the possibility of loading the chart into another program (like microsoft word, Adobe Acrobat reader etc), so that the charts can be printed from that program in full quality.

Jakob A. Torgersen [ j.a.nospamhfstud.uio.no ]
OSLO, NORWAY --- Tuesday, October 31, 2000 at 15:10 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: The site produces GIF images in various sizes (see choices in extended chart selection). The print quality provided by web browsers is lousy because they tend to print everything in low resolution. This is not under control of a page designer but a property of Netscape or IE. To get best quality, run the images in 150% mode, and then click on the image with your right mouse button, and use 'save as..' into a local GIF file. Later, open this file with your favourite image editor and print it.

The possibilities you are asking for have always been there, but you must understand how to operate your browser.

Hello from Amsterdam!

A pity you have changed your web site. I used to visit at least 3 times a day for some reason or the other. I loved the free reports, the simple way of getting there, the possiblities it offered and the analyses were great very accurate! However, now you have changed your web site, as it seems to me without any advantages, and I get a little frustrated when trying to get to the info In look for. I tried several times, but without success. The pages also seem to load slower than before.
Just for your info, I will check every once in a while if the clarity in the lay outs have improved and you won't see me here 3times a day any more until they have.
Thanks anyway,
M from Amsterdam

Alois adds: I am sure you do something fundamentally wrong, but I have no idea what you are doing.



I've been studying astrology for several years now and your website is most appreciated! I had my horoscope chart done once and it didn't agree with what I had done on astro.com. When I mentioned that Liz Greene was affiliated with this website he re-did mine to match the one I had done because he said if Liz Greene had anything to do with it, no doubt it was 100% accurate. This website is considered #1 with most everyone!

Sharon Masson [ Znospamaol.com ]
Camarillo, USA --- Tuesday, October 31, 2000 at 08:49 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: Thanks for the feedback. Liz Greene has a very important role at Astrodienst as the author of most of our excellent Astro*Intelligence reports. She should not be held responsible however for other content or services which are not visibly connected with her name. Not everything you find on our website has been blessed by her. In the near future, Liz will get much more involved also with our website content, but as it stands now, don't hold her responsible.

In the are of chart precision the main source of errors for all astrologers is incorrect timezone and daylight saving time. It is a sad fact hat there is such a large number of incorrectly computed horoscopes out there, often by established astrologers. For many years the most reliable source, which everyone uses, was Thomas Shanks' 'American and International Atlas'. We use it too and have extended it for more recent years and some gray areas. It is an ongoing effort, every year some countries in the world change the timezone laws, some even for simple sports events!



I like your site very much. It makes it very quick to draw up a chart and get a quick interpretation. However you need to do something about security. I gave the link to a friend and she put her data in. I then put mine in and after a bit tired the partner option in the free charts. I wasn't sure if the data was hers or just a random person but the chart came up with her data in it. I'm not sure if this was meant to happen or not but you should change it so at the very least you have to enter a specific person's name to get their data and just put up a random person as the choice if a person is not entered.

York, USA --- Tuesday, October 31, 2000 at 04:37 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: If you forwarded a link to your personal account, then your friend could access your account (i.e. the list of your astro data). This is currently the programmed behaviour of the system. At this stage, the password's function is only to ALLOW access if the cookie information is not present on a computer. A bookmakr contains this information (it needs to so that the recipient of a bokmark can access the intended data).

We have already implemented a 'high security' mode where any access to a named account requires login via password. This will allow publication of links without write access. However this feature is not yet activated in the released version because it has not passed final testing yet. As of now, if you want to publish a link to a chart, it is recommended to create a special new guest account with that data item only and nothing else in it.



DEAR SIRS,
Your website obtains the best reputation in our country,so I like to share your information to my friends. however I can not enter your birth data page since the homepage was changed - I fill out all my birth data but I can not enter the chart drawing page and the page always shows access denied . Now I still can't enter any selections of your site.Can you help me check your access authorization and I will be appreciative.

Thank you so much for this service. I've been studying astrology for a couple years now and started by making charts with a Table of Houses, a lot of math, and at least a 1/2 hour per chart. Your service now allows me to focus on actually studying a chart as opposed to how it's drawn out. Your service is the best on the web and yet free. I do agree with your comments about that people shouldn't complain about a free site. If they think they can do better, then they should try to rather than criticize. Love your site!! I'm on it now at least twice a day....

I'm writing to thank you for your site which I had used a few times for geo data but today, I tried your free charts to help out with some research I needed in a hurry ...
It turned out to take longer than I thought but that's mainly because I'm not computer wise at all
and so it takes several attempts before I can figure out your instructions !!
Reading some of the feedback is a boost too,
for all sorts of reasons ...
So, thank you very much for your truly generous work :-)

All in all the new changes aren't bad. One thing though, on your Astroclick Love area it's great to see the chart, but a DRAG to have to click on each area to get an interpretation. It was much better to be able to look at the whole report as one piece per your old system. Other than that, good job, guys! As always.

Dear Sir or Madam

This great site looks suddenly much worse: it's now more difficult to get a fast overview, font and graphic design makes it all more difficult to read: what a pity!

Bettina Jacqard
--- Monday, October 30, 2000 at 08:47 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: We know that a few users feel disoriented by the changes we made. Please take your time to read the instructions and help texts (wherever a [i]nformation button appears). You will find out that the new site is far better than the previous one. The very large majority of the visitors has been able to see that.

It seems time for a little review:

The main advantages of the new site are:
- your data are stored on the server; whenever you connect to it, you have all your data for up to 4 person (unregistered guest account) or 100 persons (named account)
- you can bookmark any horoscope output page now, eg. the page with the daily horoscope for tomorrow. Whenever you use this bookmark, tomorrow's daily horoscope appears. This holds for any chart or reading type. On the old server, bookmarks were tricky and we had an unbearable number of support questions due to that.
- when you create a named account, you can access your astro data from anywhere, e.g. from work and from home or while travelling.
- the visual appearence of many horoscope output pages is more appealing in text style and colors now.
- multilinguality is fully integrated into the site in a much better way now. Currently we have German and English as navigation languages. On most pages you simple switch languages by clicking on the language flag in the menu bar. More languages will follow. - it is now possible to browse between the dynamic areas of the site (personalized horoscopes) and the static areas (catalogue, samples, other non-personal information) without loosing your data. This was impossible before.

For anyone with an open mind these advantages were obvious when they saw the new site, and we received so much praise for it (see below).

However for some users every unvoluntary change is a 'challenge' and some react agressively.

I personally had to suffer an incredible amount of verbal abuse over the last two weeks (some abusive guestbook messages had to be deleted, and a lot of harrassment full of 4-letter words came by email and was never public). It is astonishing to what abusive length some people go to complain about changes in a free service which has never asked them to pay a single dime and which has never done them anything than providing generous free astrological services - the best there are on the Internet.



quiero felicitaros por la página y por la disponibilidad de cartas a las que se puede acceder. Sigo pensando que sois los mejores astrologos y astrologas del mundo, por seriedad, buen trabajo etc. ¿Cuando se va a abrir una delegación en el Pais Vasco?. Un ABRAZO.mARGA

Como a miles, me encanta su sitio. Apenas inicio en este interesante camino de la Astrología, es por ello que me gustaría saber algo sobre:
*¿Por qué se omiten los planetas Júpiter, Saturno, Urano, Plutón y Kirón en las casas? En los aspectos diarios mencionan desde Sol hasta Marte, pero los otros no aparecen en las casas.
*¿No tienen efectos estos planetas en las casas?
*¿Podrían mencionar algo más sobre los asteroides: Ceres, Pallas, Juno, Vesta, Vertex? Sería muy interesante saber qué efectos tienen en el horóscopo personal diario.
*También me gustaría saber qué efectos tiene la fortuna. Ustedes la mencionan en las cartas gratuitas, pregunté a dos astrólogos y no quisieron responderme.
Consulté el Astro Dictionary sobre estos temas, pero son demasiado técnicos para la gente que como yo, todavía no estamos muy inmersos en la Astrología.
Les mando un saludo y muchas felicitaciones.

Montreal, Canada --- Saturday, October 28, 2000 at 21:52 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: I don't know what that is. Our choice of chart types reflect what Swiss and German astrologers asked Astrodienst to provide, mostly in the first years of the company's existence betwen 1980 and 85, when there were no PCs yet. Another factor were the techniques which interested me personally and which I wanted to study. We never intended to offer EVERY possible technique. The range of choices is already confusing enough, I think. There should be some market share left over for astrology software you have to buy.



Love the site, except everyone on my list is relocated,...and preferences only accepts one site. Is there a way to let everyone on a list have their individual relocations? I use it for angles mostly for SA's and lunar returns on a 90,...Friends and family are all over the place,...but the My Astro is handy other than that. Thankyou for a great site,.. Martina

Martina Erskine [ nospamvaxxine.com ]
Niagara falls, Canada --- Saturday, October 28, 2000 at 19:59 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: now I have added a length explanation to the reference place entry page, which should explain why this is so. Please read it. The truth ist that the reference place is rather irrelevant, though few people seem to grasp that. Relocation charts are mostly a nice illusion. You cannot change your birth chart by moving.



This is an impressive site - I'm hooked since discovering it last week. I have a question, although I'm not sure if this the right place to ask, but I'm trying to discover the birth-time of the poet Ted Hughes so I can find his ascendent. I only know 17th August 1930 in Mytholmroyd. I've looked on an Astro-celebrity site, on your VIP list, and in the usual biographies, but to no avail.

What intrigues me is that in his poem St Botolph's - where he describes his momentous first meeting with Sylvia Plath in Cambridge, he is quite specific about the astrology on that day - the 25th February 1956, and its bearing on both their charts. But I cannot get it all to fit together, and feel that either he is mistaken about the astrology, or I am doing something wrong. He says Jupiter and the full moon conjunct/Opposed Venus...The conjuction, conjunct my Sun...Venus pinned exact on my mid-heaven. He later says that Neptune is in his 10th house. But on 25/02/56, Venus was around 16 degrees Aries, so never opposite Jupiter/Moon, which were close together around 25-28 degrees Leo, (Hughes' sun), as was Pluto, which he doesn't mention. And no matter where I try out his ascendent (initially favouring Leo or Scorpio), I can't get his midheaven to be at 16 degrees Aries AND his Neptune to be in the 10th house, it's not possible. Could anybody help me out there?

Thanks to this site, and the ease of being able to edit data and see a result at the click of a switch, the hard work done for you - and free. It makes seeing and interpreting the patterns, and correlating these patterns with peoples' psychology, all the more interesting, even if you're only a beginner.

I really dislike your new format. Was there some reason you had to fix something that wasn't broken?

You had a wonderful system which was easy to use and move back and forth within. Now, it takes much longer for things to load and is much harder to move back and forth.

I don't like the itemization or seperation of everything, which is a pain.

There is too much to look at and hurts the eyes and makes it difficult to choose and you can't navigate as well back and forth.


I dont like it

we have a very different opinion, obviously. once you got used to the new site, you will understand the tremendous advantages. it is futile to ask us to go back. we have our own visions. and being a free service, we are not bound to anything than our vision.



This has been a great site for me during my three years of studying astrology. I have used it to provide my friends and family with natal charts. I have also sent a link to many people so they can prepare their own charts. This is the best site and I thank you!

I am still having some difficulty navigating, but I am the eternal optimist and therefore believe that only time and effort stands in my way of complete mastery of your new and improved site.

You may want to consider adding a small tutorial program to your help section to assist novices in preparing charts. This could be done in an interactive format or through video and would greatly enhance this site's effectiveness.

Keep up the good work and many thanks for keeping this site free and accessible to all!

Hallo Ihr Lieben

Ihr habt Euch ein riesiges Kompliment verdient! Die neue Page ist sehr schoen geworden. Irgendwie softer. Danke vielmals!!
Und die Idee dass man die Daten einfach safen kann ist natuerlich wundervoll!!

Das einzige was mir nun neuerdings fehlt ist der Bezugsort. Ich bin seit mehr als 3 Monaten hier in Indien am umher tingeln. Und bin mir nun nicht sicher ob ich mich weiterhin mit Biel oder eben mit dem Ort wo ich mich soeben aufhalte anmelden soll. - Was meint Ihr?

I am disappointed in the new format. It has
taken hours to retrieve a small amount of

to access all of the information on a computer

advantage to this format unless you wish to
discourage extensive use.

I wrote you yesterday asking about the relationship charts. I have already looked at your samples, but they do not tell me whether
you actually do a PERSONAL chart reading. If I buy the hardbound version of the relationship
horoscope, I want to know if I'm going to have
to go to someone in person and have them
interpret it. Is it a technical overview, or

Lieber Astrodienst! Es kommt mir so vor, als gäbe es in den neunen Zeiten keine Möglichkeit mehr, einen vom Geburtsort abweichenden Wohnort anzugeben? Doch Sie stimmen mir sicher zu, daß die Sterne mich anders bescheinen, wenn ich, geboren in Tartu, Estland jetzt in Berlin lebe? Ich glaube, heutzutage gibt es sehr viele Menschen, vielleicht unter Ihren Lesern sogar mehr als der Durchschnitt, die nicht dort leben, wo sie geboren sind. Wollen Sie nicht diesen Umstand weiterhin berücksichtigen, damit Ihre Horoskope treffsicher beliben? Liebe Grüße, Katrin Laur

Tristan Nixon, our Perl and Mysql guru, should not be forgotten in the role of honors. We would not be where we are with the site without his competence, speed an creativity.

I noticed the feedback from Ariane in Edmonton, 26th Oct 00 and can only say that I have used the site often this year and found the changed site for the first time also today. I had no difficulty whatsover obtaining the same type of chart service I have used before, I simply had to quickly read the instructions first, which always helps!

I would like to thank you for providing so much assistance at no charge, although a good marketing tool, to help you promote sales,few give as much back to help others learn. Like many others I Have studied astrology for some twenty years and read many of Liz and Howards books, and much of Carl Jungs work, I also sat in on classes with a teacher qualified in the London school who now works in Australia, all of which helped me considerably to comprehend the psychological symbolism of astrology and can only suggest that others may wish to discover more about your work and also do some comparisons of other web-sites before complaining about your free services. All of us who have a serious interest in Astrology, I am sure would be glad to hear of other excellent sites that can equal or top yours, including yourselves and on behalf of those who just don't seem to get it, I would like to say a big thank you for using valuable time and courtesy to try and help them despite the occasional impatience ingratitude exhibited by some.

the new chart maker is as reliable as the old , no doubt,but the format is a bit more complicated...2 or 3 steps more are neccessary to achieve the desired chart ...its not as easy to jump from a synastry chart to a composite and back to the natal........for you astrologers who were using this site in your work over the phone i suggest that you buy an astro program

Alois adds: About choosing a different chart, the BACK' button of the browser works from the chart output page just as before. On the old site, this was the ONLY way to get a different chart type. Now you can also use the 'Free Horoscopes' from the menu bar, and then 'Extended chart types', but you do not have to.

Some users might even find out that they can employ two windows of their browser, one for the 'My Astro' page and quick data entry, the other for chart output.

It is like upgrading from a bicycle to a car, yes, the usage is more complicated. At least our new car still runs without gas.

I am attempting to compute an event chart, but all I get is my birth chart, as entered in My Astro.

I find the overhaul very concise, and a big improvement, but the facile use of the chart calculator has become bulky and difficult to manage as easily as it used to be.

Alois adds: There is a person 'pulldown list' on top of each horoscope output page which makes it easy to choose another person for the same type of chart.

Alternatively, please use the 'My Astro' page.



Obviously you are incapable accepting any kind of negative feedback and have to turn your responses it into a psychological diatribe. You never addressed the difficulties that the user has getting back to the screen to change the birthdata after they have put one set of birthdata in place nor have you addressed how to easily get to advanced chart selection. It has nothing to do with powerlessness over the changes made, just maybe the person making the changes should look at their inability to consider other users and the difficulties they may have...it is called consideration and looking at the other persons point of view. Which I'm not so sure you are capable of doing.

Ariane [ nospamyahoo.com ]
Edmonton, Canada --- Thursday, October 26, 2000 at 00:57 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: As a reaction on early user feedback, we added a link on every horoscope output page, saying 'Edit Data for...'. It is prominently near the top of each page, below the link 'Add new person'.

The 'My Astro' page always had a link 'Edit data' besides every data record listed. We do consider this sufficient, and indeed 39'000 users have been using the site since the last 8 days, when we started the changes. I think we have reacted on the feedback to a considerable extent. At the core pagees, the horoscope selection page, and the 'My Astro' page, there are explanation texts which explain the most important steps to be taken. Literacy is of course a general requirement for all users of our site.



You have a problem on your extended chart site. You can only but one asteroid in at a time. Before you could put in several asteroids at a time.

I was born in Germany and throughout the many years of having charts done, have yet to find one that will agree on my Ascendant. I believe it's because I was born in Europe.
Anyone know of an Astrologer that can do my chart, in English, using my European date and time?
Thank you for any assistance anyone can provide!

Ausserdem ist alles langsamer. Auch nützt es mir nichts, wenn ihr euch meine Daten nochmals irgendwie anders merkt, denn ich kann ja mit dem Lesezeichen sofort dorthin, wo ich will.

For all the beautiful souls in this warm-wonderful world.

I just wrote a letter and afterwards I started to read letters from others. And because of that I feel like to response on some of them.

I've read a lot of letters, in wich were said, that things weren't right. Well, let me tell you, that I have made hundreds of horoscopes without a computer and they are simulair with this program. So I think, that your initiate horoscope wasn't made right. It's good to make a mistake, but then look further. Astrlogy is not a game-. I study astrology for more than 20 years and in this website I haven't find one wrong placement of planents and cups!

I would also like to expres my feelings about loneliness. I think that most of the readers and writers are quit lonely with themeselfes, like I am. So I would like to ask you all, for bringing life to these lonely words and feelings(?).

When you live your life. Just live it in your own way, listen to your wonderful music an live in a wonderful giving spirit.

The only thing we need is TRUST and when we have trust we can believe in ourselves and the future. Then nothing can stop us, and astrology is nothing then.

Don't ever be afraid and feel the love of your enviroment and grow as it should let you grow.

And as you can see, I am just like you like tears will never dry, n'or give any anwers.

There's only one way to fulfill this life in a good way, and that's to do your best in every form or sort of a way, both spiritual and physical.

Your's forever....p.s. I had some wine and a joint...

I recieved the Astro intelligence Psychological Analysis and it was incredible. I plan on ordering more for Christmas for friends and relatives. I also love the new design of Astrodienst. It now remebers my birthdate so I can get my horoscope quicker. Great Job!

Deanna Olson [ nospamaol.on ]
Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA --- Wednesday, October 25, 2000 at 02:07 Universal Time (UT/GMT)



Hello,

I'm grateful, that all around the world, people have the opportunity to learn about themeselves through your webpage. I study astrology for 21 years and through this period, I was able to help a lot of people. As you know, we all go through both deep inner and exterior conflicts. In my opinion, astrology could be the key to understand yourself and transform, if you would just open yourself for this wonderful wisdom of knowledgde.

I've read lot's of books about astrology and I was always suprised, that American astrologers like Liz Greene, Stephen Arroyo, Robert Hand, Jeff Green and Martin Schulman really understand astrology in every way imaginable. They walk pathes of the great philosophers and psychologists. Just trying to understand the human psyche in it's wonderful complex, personal and spiritual way.

So I was strucked, when I found out that a few of my favorite astologers made a webpage to give their knowledge away. Their intentions are giving, like it should be when you practics astrology.

For me, this webpage indicates a form of peace in my life, because it took me a lot of time and money to help others with my knowledge. Note- I usually have a conversation with the person, after I made the horoscope and tell him what I see and feel with his questions. When he or she wants to know more, I make copies of the aspects wich are suitable for the situation, because I do not want to earn money with astology. I think, it's already written in such wonderful words, that I can't do it better.

But I do have some questions. First, a personal one, my son is 11 and I could not do the love click. I was playing around with your program and wanted to see the Uranus/MC-conjunction. I was told that his age wasn't right yet. On the other hand I was able to read in his personal portrait both Neptune in 10 and Cusp Pisces. I also read his daily horoscope, that he had an Mars conjunction with Venus, wich indicates sexuality for instance. As you can understand, I did not read the words, because it's just not intresting.

Next question. -Would it be possible to get Schulman involveld in this webpage. He is the one who writes about karmic astology, like the Moon- Nod and Happy-point. (Don't possibly know the right translation.)-I would also like to know more about Chiron.

Further, I would like to say something important to the people who will read my letter. Would you please take care in your development in matters like tarot-carts and others. Try to stay in your own world and don't try go looking for answers. Just believe in everything you already have. You really don't need more than that. It could bring alienation with yourself in a terrible way. We all have a divine spirit, wich helps us all the way. And astrology is a wonderful way to walk your life in a way wich will suits you well!

A lot of love, light and power from Muriel.

My birthdate is the 11th of february 1966, at 06.23 at Rotterdam, the Netherlands. -Sun 22.02 in Aquarius, Ascendant 12.26 in Capricorn and the Moon 8.02 in Scorpio.

I really enjoy your site and I love the free

My question is this. How do I delete chart info
that is stored and why does the state of birth
come up wrong? It is always the birthplace for
the previous chart. I have to change it every-
time. Am I doing something wrong?

Hello I also liked the comment about the apple between the knees (Saturn in the 5th house). How I like astrologers when they express themselves with wit.

What I was wanting to ask - I saw the Liz Greene horoscope advertised would love to purchase one. Now, I don't have a credit card and am in any case wary of putting card details on the web (mine or anyone else I could borrow one off). Is there another way around this, do you accept money orders or something ?

Hi, and thanks for a great site. My problem is about hose-systems isn't it true that all house-systems other than equal house will collapse when the birthplace is north of the polar circle? And howcome my horoscope gets calculated with Placidus houses when I'm born at 68 degrees north? I feel you should make house-systems optional, so that the user can choose freely among the various systems normally used. I believe you actually had this option some years ago? Anyway, I did't mean to be overly critical, I really love your site. It's just that this house-thing makes me uneasy about the accuracy of my horoscope. Keep up the good work! Susie.

Susie [ nospamhotmail.com ]
Tromsoe, Norway --- Tuesday, October 24, 2000 at 12:35 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: In the extended chart selection you can choose freely among house systems, but not in the reports. All reports default to Placidus. Inside the Polar areas we default to Porphyrius but it is possible that no all output pages indicate that.

You can use the extended chart selection to verify this.

I would feel uneasy too if I were born north of the polar circle and used standard astrology. You might have to develop your own...



Your site is a a blessing. Thankyou so much for making this form of understanding so easily available.

It would be great to have a section on what is going on in the planets generally....eg mercury in retrograde at the moment...ect.
Thanks again...your doing great work.

this is not as easy to use as the previous version. for example, if one wants full chart options after inputting the birth data, there is no link. the last version was simpler and more streamlined to use.

also, the chart is too big to print. before it fit a standard piece of paper perfectly and one could print from screen.

I'm happy with the new site. Not having to re-enter choices in the extended chart section is really helpful. I'm just beginnig to use this self study tool and I have lots of questions. One I think someone can help me right away with is explaining the differance between the composite charts and the Davidson relationship charts. The interpertation of the two different charts is certainly significant. Again thanks for having this information available. I'm glad I waited until the math was done for me before I started studying. Yolanda

Alois adds: Hi, it would not be very helpful for you to visit our offices. We do not run a shop or consulting office, we just run a mail order business. We have no facilities to receive visitors, I am afraid (and regrettably no time for social chats).

We cannot change a report which you do not like, except if the data entered were incorrect, which does not seem the case. If we run your report again, the same one would come out. What you say below in the earlier message does not make sense. Your horoscope was computed correctly, for the data you had given.



I really love the new site! I think AstroClick is great, it describes me PERFECTLY! :) And I like the interpretation of the relationship between my boyfriend and me, it describes our relationship very well and why we argue a lot! Well keep up the good work! :o)

I am always delighted to work my way through your website changes, even though it may cause me to spend a little time thinking and exploring. There are always new welcome discoveries when you update your site. Reading the descriptions of the Liz Greene Seminars makes me want them so much. Any chance these 6+ hour sessions are available on tape? Or in print? I have her books that are in print and use all of her reports. Her work is so penetrating, so profound and comprehensive. You have all helped me so much. Zurich is so far away, though. Having Liz on tape or CD would be so fine. Thanks for your great work.

this is a really unexpected expirience.
I almost lost the one important relationship
in my life [my wife]
and by accident I came to the astrologic side of you.
It was like we did saw a new world opening up
So clear and transparant the revieuw was.
It all said more or less everything we'd forgotten .Itwas , and still is enlightining our sky's again, thank you very much

Hi! I've just started studying Astrology and I'm so excited that I have found this web site on
the internet. Now I can check my charts and study
with more accuracy. There are very few Astrologers in St.Louis because it is still considered an evil practice by the Protestant and
Catholic churches here. Until two years ago I
had held the same views...At age 40, I had my very
first reading and the astrologer told me everything that was going on in my life...and all of it was true. I became determined to find out
how she accomplished this feat,and so I began my
studies. Now my co-workers have become interested
as well as my children that I am home schooling.
Thank you so much for your web site!

First i would like to thank u for your beautiful site, it's been really helpful for me. But i've one question. When i use the Composite chart on your site i get a different chart than with using the composite MP-method chart on your site. How is that first composite chart made? Wich technique has been used for that one??

yours sincerly

i for one love the new site format. i think this is by far the best astrology site , free or otherwise, and not having to waste time typing your information everyday makes it even better. definitely a step forward, about all the complaints i would sincerely hope you would work out the problems with second and third person data rather than going backwards and forgetting a great idea because a few people were temporarily annoyed.

Alois adds: Thank you. I can assure you that there exist no such problems. It is just like driving a new car, where the light switch and heating control are on a place different from before. Some drivers can get very nervous about something like that.



Why do you guys continually change the format for Astrodienst?? Just when I get used to one format you go and change it.
It is next to G.D. impossible to get a second and third persons birthdata on, after you've already put one persons in. It is also impossible to get to the extended chart selection section to do progressions etc. after you've put up a birthchart. CAN'T YOU LEAVE THINGS ALONE? YOU ARE NOT IMPROVING THINGS, JUST MAKING THEM MORE CONFUSING, DIFFICULT AND A MESS.

Edmonton, Canada --- Sunday, October 22, 2000 at 23:46 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois repeats: I know how terrible it can be if things change when you were not the one who made the decision for them to change. It can create feelings as if a loved partner decided to leave you. Calling out 'I hate you' however will most likely not bring him/her back.

Please try to understand that we feel very different about this.



I am having trouble with your new system. Not only do I get my daily horoscope when i click My Astro, but I also get it when I use Personal Daily Horoscope, and without code. I have been trying to disconnect, impossible. This PC is at work, available to many people, what do I do???

Janne Nygaard [ nospamhotmail.com ]

Your web site is the beast for Astrology on the net. IMO.

As for reading your comment on making money and not giving everything away for free. I would be in favor of a yearly charge fee. To use the basic chart generation service you currently provide. As to the money of a yearly fee. It would be up to you! You could charge a membership fee of say!, 5 or 20 a year or whatever amount to help you with your costs. If this is a solution you should try it! As for a fee of 100 a year would IMO be high for some. But it shows how valuable your service is the public. this is just a thought.

gratitude,

Since I have just gotten my computer working again after being totally incommunicado for a week, I have just discovered the changes you have made to your website. Beautiful! Every time I think you can't possibly make it any better, you do. I still love reading the Feedback entries, which I do religiously every day (when my computer's working!) My favourite of your most recent comments, Alois, was the one about Saturn in the fifth being as good as an apple between the knees. Living in an area where it is rare to find someone astrologically literate to talk to, it's great to be able to have access to your comments and jokes. And as soon as the vocational reports are available, I'm ordering several. Can't wait!

The typeface on the new version of your site is much too small to read! Please change the font size back to 10 or 12 points, or make it accessible to browser enlargement. Currently any attempt to enlarge the typeface in my browser only enlarges the sidebar info, but has no effect on the links or main text. Thanks!

Martin
--- Sunday, October 22, 2000 at 15:17 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: The question of font sizes on web pages is much more complex than anyone might think. The same page comes out VERY different on different systems. Windows enlarges everything, and the Mac shows it too small. The server has no way of knowing the user's screen size or font preference settings.

We need to control the size of fonts, so that the navigational elements keep within the limited space assigned to them. On the other end we understand quite well that it is desireable if a user can change font size in his/her browser. We hope to find a solution which is satisfying for both, the page designer and the reader with ageing eyes.



Me gusto mucho la nueva presentacion, pienso que podrian cambiar solo el ancho de la pagina de Free Dayly Horoscopes, para no tener que correrla a la derecha al leerla!. de resto, me encanta.

Why did you fix it when it wasn't broken? I thought it was perfect as it was. I am having trouble changing from chart for person a to person 'b.
Having said that, I must tell you I love your site. (Just wish you had left it as it was).

I just tried using your new Beta Test page....May I ask what was wrong with the old one? I liked the chance of hopping in and doing a chart,BUT now,I have to hunt and then retrace my steps to get to the Extended Charts.Can you fix it so we can just come in and out? As for keeping the info when we logon,I thought that was what bookmarks and Favorites was for? Besides,maybe,I'm not wanting to keep the info here....maybe I'm doing a short chart like Persona for a person and I don't need to logon under that same name next time I come on.I.also,had trouble when I went back to change a few things with the chart I did tonight..I had to reenter all my settings again,which cost me a little time....not like before.I do like the design of the page and all AND the future promise of a Career Report in Nov..I can't wait to see that.:) Wellllllll,yo asked for my two cents and got it.I hope we can still be friends.*s*

Fred Traweek [ nospamhotmail.com ]
Hammond, USA --- Sunday, October 22, 2000 at 05:40 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: To get to extended charts is two clicks from any location on the site: click 'free horoscopes' in the top navigation, then 'extended charts'.
Also, now you can bookmark ANY page on the site, including dynamic pages with chart output.

For editing natal data, EVERY chart output page has a link near the top for 'edit data'. The My Astro page has one for every row of data you keep. Do you need more such links? Please tell us where to put them!

I recommend you give yourself a bit of time to familiarize yourself with the advantages of the new site, instead of complaining.

I hope you are aware that the Liz Greene reports are not offered for free. They are too good to be free.



We have updated www.astro.com to the new software release. Patiently we will bear the collective outrage that we dare to change our system.

Alois
meilen, switzerland --- Sunday, October 22, 2000 at 7:00 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: Now the new system is running 10 hours and it goes very smooth. We chose the weekend because the traffic is much lower on the site (most people seem to do horosopes from their work desks...). There were 3738 natal data records added during these 10 hours, by 2255 visitors. 171 of these have chosen to register already, which is great. Thank you all for using our services.



The new Beta version type is awfully small and much more difficult to read than was that of the previous version. Otherwise, the Beta version is really very nice, and the My Astro feature should be a help. Thanks.

Der Dienst ist allgemein sehr gut und leicht zu bedienen! Sehr interessant finde ich das Konzept und die Ausführung von "Astro Klick Liebe", jedoch fände ich die folgenden Punkte hilfreich:
- Klare grafische Abgrenzung wohin der Klick geht, zB mit Highlite.
- Die Bedeutung der einzelnen Häuser und anderer Aspekte erklären.
- hoffentlich macht ihr das gleiche Konzept auch bald für Persönlichkeitshoroskop

It was such a nice surprise earlier this week when I signed on and didn't have to re-enter my data!

Weiterhin viel Erfolg und noch viele unterhaltsame Ideen für ein breit gefächertes Publikum.
Ich persönlich bin inzwischen regelmäßig, einmal pro Woche mindestens, auf Ihrer Seite und finde nicht zuletzt beim Lesen aktueller Themen, der Wochen- und Tageshoroskope sowie des persönlichen Gratis-Horoskopes meine ganz individuelle Energiequelle, kann auftanken und persönliche Tiefen besser bewältigen.

Haddon Twp, usa --- Saturday, October 21, 2000 at 12:38 Universal Time (UT/GMT)



In the aspect table, A stands for applicative aspect (the two planets
are moving towards the exact angle) and S stands for separative aspect
(the two planets are moving away from the exact angle). The numbers are
the current orb, i.e. the distance from the exact angle. A positive
number means that the actual angle is larger than the exact aspect would
be, a negative number menas that the actual angle is smaller than the
exact aspect would be.

Please be aware the A and S are not bound to plus or minus.

Okay, Dear Alois, I understand the difference between A and S now, but let me see if I understand the difference between the negative number and the positive number. The positive number indicates the number of degrees to which the orb of aspect differentiates and the negative number indicates the degree to which the aspect is precise with in one degree? Thanks for your help... and your patience.

Rob Whitlock [ nospamaol.com ]
Minneapolis, MN, USA --- Saturday, October 21, 2000 at 10:22 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: Maybe an example helps: In my own chart, Uranus is at 1 deg. Cancer and the Moon at 26 deg. Libra. The distance between the two is 115 degrees. 120 degrees would make an exact trine, the actual distance it 5 degrees short, so the aspectarian has -5.

Moon moves much faster than Uranus, and it will reach the position of 1 Scorpio (the exact trine to Uranus) soon after my birth. Therefore there is an 'A' for applicative aspect.

My Jupiter is at 22 Aquarius. The moon has an angle of 116 degrees to it, which is 4 degrees short of the exact aspect. Therefore there is a -4 in the aspect table. The Moon is moving away from the exact aspect (which was a few hours before my birth), therefore it is separating and has an 'S'.

My Mercury is at 29 Aquarius, the moon has an angle of 123 degrees to it, which is 3 degrees more than an exact trine. It has a plus 3 in the aspect table.

If you want the orbis with more precision than the rounded degrees, use the 'additional data tables' available for most chart types. (Or do the math yourself from the positions listed on the chart).



you are the best of best

Do you have more than 100 'amigos' for whom you want to make horoscopes? Then it looks as if you run a professional service, which goes beyond legitimate 'private use'.

I love your site.

I do have a suggestion...Surely there are people who are born around the same time and same place, that might have similar life experiences/similar natal charts. How about creating a database to match them up based on different variables as people sign in for their free natal chart.

lakewood, usa --- Friday, October 20, 2000 at 16:38 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: Your idea is certainly interesting, and maybe we will set up something like that in the future. If we do it, only those data that vistors explicitly want to enter into such a 'matching service' will be used.

We would never automatically subject user's data to such automatic matching or processing. We are very much privacy-conscious and we treat the data our visitors enter into our system as highly confidential. We make great efforts that nobody can access another persons's data.

Astrodienst is not just an Internet startup but has a background of 20 years of astrological computer services by mail order. We have always treated our customer's data as highly confidential, and we extend that attitude to the free services on the Internet.



Dear Alois and Team Astrodienst - one would have thought it impossible but you just keep on getting better and offering more. Everything is great, the changes excellent, the information so necessary, sensitive and right - I am amazed at and overwhelmed with what you have done with 'artificial intelligence' and the computer. It is the 'genuine intelligence' that you so readily and generously share with us all that is the gift, thank you so very very much.

Ich beschäftige mich zwar selbst ein wenig mit Astrologie, aber um richtige Deutungen zu machen, fehlt mir einfach das Wissen. Ich hab eine Software die heißt AstroStar und die deutet dann für mich *g*! Was für mich momentan noch interessant wäre, wo man nachsehen kann, wie es beruflich aussieht! Da ich zur Zeit Arbeit suche, würde ich gerne wissen, welcher Zeitpunkt günstig ist um Veränderungen vorzunehmen! Steht das irgendwo?? Für eine kleine Auskunft wäre ich dankbar!
Liebe Grüße Michaela

Hi everyone,
I have only recently become interested in astrology. I was born on 1/2/1956 at 6:36am in Aberdeen, Scotland, and I always thought that I was Aquarius with ascendant Capricorn. But I went to see an astrologist here in Spain who said that in the book he used to calculate my birthchart, he changed my birthtime by an hour. This made my ascendant Sagittarius and changed all the houses of the planets. He said that ascendant Sagittarius fitted better with my physique and my personality. I am a little confused now. Any comments.

Your response to the words cut off doesn't make sense. I browse sites all the time and don't have any problems with their lines being cut off. Why don't you consider resizing your page inside your program. Please try this because it's clearly a problem that things are off center or something. I can't even read half of what I write to you without moving the bar completely to the right, so something is off center there as well. When I read through your responses, nothing is ever your fault. Please reconsider investigating what you can do to fix this problem.
Also I ordered a chart and the interpretations were wrong. The planets were placed say in the 3rd house, but the interpretations for the 5th house. I wasn't pleased and went and bought the book on composite charts myself and looked up the right interpretations. But I don't know if the planets are wrong or there is a glitch in your program that picked the wrong houses.

Liebe Astrodienst Leute,
ich bin begeistert von Eurem Service!.Optisch hat mir die alte Seite besser gefallen, aber die neue ist natürlich praktischer. Ein Wunsch von mir: die kurzfristig wirksamen Transite immer schon an dem Tag anzeigen, an dem sie zum erstenmal in Erscheinung treten, nicht erst am Höhepunkttag (und dann mit der Anmerkung ...seit......wirksam). Vielen Dank!

I do not like this new version of astrodienst. Please bring the old version back Its easy to use this one is to much back tracking .I hate it.

langley, canada --- Friday, October 20, 2000 at 03:45 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: I know how terrible it can be if things change when you were not the one who made the decision for them to change. It can create feelings as if a loved partner decided to leave you. Calling out 'I hate you' however will most likely not bring him/her back.

Please try to understand that we feel very different about this.



first off thanks for mantaining a great site. it is a valuble resource for me, without my own computer.
i've become completely fascinated by horary. i see you have most types of charts to be drawn but not for horary. i think it would be neat...if it say could see paralells, list all aspects of moon before leaving that sign...stuff like that. i make horary charts on this site already the way it is and it works, but i have to work it a bit to do it. its hard sometimes to see the applying aspects with all of them there, and looking for paralells is tricky for me.
anyway, thanks again for making this available to us, lei

your new web site is terrible because half of the line is cut off on the right. yo need a bar at the bottom which allows you to move the screen more to the right or left.
I don't like the new website.

Micki Conte [ nospamdim.com ]
Denver, usa --- Thursday, October 19, 2000 at 20:12 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: This is a bug in your Netscape browser. Make the browser window slightly smaller than the screen. This might help.

There is nothing on the side of the web server we can do to make horizontal scrollbars appear at your end. It is a decision the browser makes by itself.

I assume that you exaggerate also about 'half of the line' cut off. What is missing is most likely about 3 letters covered by Netscape's vertical scroll bar.



This is the most thorough and excellent astrology site I've come across to-date. Thank you for offering such a great variety of charts.

I am reading my horoscope daily on old computers in a small country of Africa that nobody knows.
Everything was perfect till you begin to change your pages recently. The right side of the page is not visible, and there is no way to go to see it, as there is no arrow for horizontal movments on the page.
It is most probably due to old version of the browser, but here in the middle of nowhere it is all we have.
Please help!

me aqui
--- Thursday, October 19, 2000 at 11:11 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: Your browser is Netscape 4.6 which is not old at all. Our pages are only 630 pixel wide, and I do not understand why there should be a problem. You browser should handle horizontal scrolling automatically.

Netscape seems to have a bug, it does not take the width of the vertical scrollbar into account when it decides whether it needs a horizontal scroll bar. Therefore some page area is covered by the vertical scroll bar sometimes. [They never fix bugs in Netscape, they always are carried forward to the next release, in my experience. The times when I had high respect for this company are gone since I found out how sloppy they work. The problem is that I have even less respect for Microsoft.]

You can try making your browser window slightly SMALLER than full screen size.s Maybe this helps your browser to generate horizontal scrollbars.



I have a question re. the true date of birth in the following matter: My friend was 6 months pregnant when, through necessary surgical and thus life-threatening intervention, the fetus/premie was taken surgically from her, thus making this a premature six-month baby. For astrological reasons, what should be calculated as the time of birth: (1) at the time of surgery or (2)when the natural time of birth after nine months would have been. Thank you

New York City, USA --- Thursday, October 19, 2000 at 09:41 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: Astrology uses always the real birth time, i.e. when the baby was born (or taking its first breath). The reasons why it was born at this time are not important, only the fact that it happened.



Although a native German by birth, but now living in New York City, I am more comfortable writing in English. I am impressed with your site and find it most rewarding. It is interesting for me to read text in both German and English, and find that some important concepts as well as meanings and wording does seem to sometimes get lost in the translation. Ansonsten ist alles sehr treffend. "Ach ja, wir armen Skorpione haben es doch manchmal recht schwer im Leben!!!!" The last sentence is meant in a joking way. Barbara M.

Alois adds: This is true for all book or film translations too. Whenever you can, read things in the original language of the author (in the case of Astrodienst, this is mostly English).

PS: Please check the new site at www.astro.com, where language navigation is also possible on all horoscope output pages, making it much more convenient to read the same thing in several languages, just one button click (on the little flag in the menu bar).



Never mind, I figured it out! ;-)

You did not order the 'Transits of the Year' but on Oct 9 we received an order from you for a 'Horoscope for Two' which is something totally different.

Alois adds: This is a misunderstanding. The daily horoscope is for a PERSON, and we choose the chart style to use for our interpretation. The offers in the extended chart selection are are for users which know how to interpret a horoscope themselves. When we provide readings, we do not offer technical options but use those tehniques we prefer. This is comparable to a visit to an astrologer, who will also read your chart according to his/her technique, not yours.

Dear Alois,
You all must be playing a joke with mercury going retrograde, because the site was doing some weird stuff tonight that it doesn't usually do, like not figuring out which chart to print when I entered new birth data... My experience with mercury retrograde periods have probably been the most conclusive evidence I have had for the validity of tropical astrology. Of course it always describes my friends and relatives to a T as well... blah blah.. But it's just SO COOL!

Any way, I do have a question. On the aspectarian tables, there is either an A or an S under the degree of the orb of aspect. What do those signify?
Thanks again, keep up the good work, sincerely,
Rob

Rob Whitlock [ nospamaol.com ]
Twin Cities, Minnesota, USA --- Wednesday, October 18, 2000 at 07:41 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: In the aspect table, A stands for applicative aspect (the two planets are moving towards the exact angle) and S stands for separative aspect (the two planets are moving away from the exact angle). The numbers are the current orb, i.e. the distance from the exact angle. A positive number means that the actual angle is larger than the exact aspect would be, a negative number menas that the actual angle is smaller than the exact aspect would be.

Please be aware the A and S are not bound to plus or minus.



I get such a kick from reading the feedback from users. I just laughed and laughed at those who are experiencing reception problems in Malaysia! Perhaps they should try pointing the little TV antenna on their Uranus symbol at the planet Neptune and receive astro.com psychically . . .

I also get a kick out of everyone who expects Alois to spend 86 hours a day answering personal questions. I'm also amused by the atrocious spelling in these comments. Hey, here's a great free site that must require a tremendous amount of work to design and maintain. So it's not perfect - just use it and enjoy it, and if you want personal advice, go support your starving local astrologer.

I would like for you to make available transit charts for composite charts, so that I may see what's going on in my relationship, and additionally to the composite listings, I would like for you to add an option for a composite astrocartography chart.

Victoria Johnson

Please leave the site the way it was; it was much faster to make minor comparative adjustments by the former method. I could quickly move the ascendant degree without having to re-enter all basic info when I rectified birthtimes; and all chart-type selection was much swifter. Please don't keep "improving" it; it was fine.

releau
sisters, USA --- Tuesday, October 17, 2000 at 19:34 Universal Time (UT/GMT)

Alois adds: Let me tell you a trick. Keep two browser windows open into the Astro site, one where you see the chart, the other with the 'my astro' page. There you have the 'edit' link besides each data record to play around with the data. Each time you have saved your edited data, activate the chart window and do a reload there. This will show you the updated chart. Of course a large screen is more convenient to keep several windows open.



Congratulations on the new designs of your site. I just love the new colors and disposition of the various options. I find it is easier to navigate and more pleasant to the eye. You are always up to date and I enjoy landing at Astrodienst every day for various reports. Although I am an astrologer myself, the daily horoscope is a joy... Keep up your good work and give my best regards to Alois.

To visitors on our US server www.astro.com which share the same guestbook as vistors on www.astro.com, the Swiss server:
We are running a new version of our software on the Swiss server, and most of the recent messages refer to this new website. If you want to have a look, please come over to www.astro.com.

We will keep the US server running with the older software (11 months old..) until we have worked out all quirks on the new stuff, and solved the performance problems we seem to be having. Then we will also update the US server, probably within two or three weeks.



i find your redesign confusing. with your old system, i stored my astrodienst birth info as a bookmark on my computer. whenever i wanted to do a lunar return or composite, i could hit the bookmark and move easily into your system. now it seems much more cumbersome. there is an american expression: if it ain't broke, don't fix it!

The personal report I pulled based on my birth data is totally off as far as my personality goes, both in the description of my sun sign traits and my rising sign traits.
I was told years ago by an astrologer that the boundaries of each sign shift slightly each year and she said I was a Taurus -although I was born on May 26. I do not have Gemini traits - I am almost a textbook Taurus. If I put in May 21st as my birthday, the chart reading is much much more accurate. Am I nuts?

Alois adds: I just hope for you that it was not you who gave your daughter this very naive astrological advice. Saturn in 5 is as good as an contraceptive as an apple between the knees: There are ways around it. And it can mean lots of different things. In the case of your daughter it (Saturn, not the apple) might mean that Saturnian duties replace what would normally be a time to be young, to play and enjoy fun. She should think once more seriously about an abortion. Also this could be the meaning of her Saturn in five: To be forced to make a very hard and fatal decision.



Hello I tried the love chart horoscope and I think it is very nicely rendered and thorough. I found the part were the generation explanation is omitted because 'everyone has it' annoying.
Nevertheless, I appreciate the fact that you have made the daily and so many other readings available for free. Many days I have silently thanked you for your insightful reports. The pictures are perfect too. The appropriateness is often subtle, but once it is divined, it always expresses a succinct aspect of the report and its interpretation. Thank you for all the work that you do.

Dear Alois, Would it be possible to get a reading done which interpretes the chart as if the moon was on the ascendant? I have heard that it is more accurate for predictive astrology. What are your opinions on this matter? Also, how come you do not use the moon's nodes in making your interpretations. Looking at your site again, I have to say that it is very impressive. Finally, I want to ask if you think that a person who has a predominance of the earth element in their chart will be an especially sensual person. I find that a lot of earth sign people are fantastic conceptual and abstract thinkers.

I enjoy the personal horoscopes daily and the short reports have given me a very interesting framework to look at my life recently. I am learning a lot about astrology and how it works, but I want to learn more. The astro dictionary is interesting but could anybody recommend a good book (or site) which would help a beginner understand the meanings of houses, the planets and how to analyze the interelationships?

Your help would be greatly appreciated!

Dear Astrodienst staff,
Again I have more compliments to you sophisticated and gratuitous astrologist web-site. BUT! I have an idea for making it even more fun and free! For the personal daily, it would be really neat if one could select a planet to analyze in it's transit... for example, pick mars, and observe how it is influencing the whole chart.. Just a thought, And I understand, of course, that you all have to get paid. OK, thanks and * * * * *

Hi
I had not been to your page for a while and it is great. I always enjoy it because it is the best there is on the web for astrology. Good work! Thanks!
I would like to add a comment. During WWII, there was a time change in Cuba (probably other countries in the Western Hemisphere) where a War Time was implemented. Therefore, during this time there was 4 hrs difference with GMT instead of 5. Please check this as it is not registered in your data. I once told Liz Greene about it, about 10 years ago when I ordered a chart from her. You see the difference, in my case for instance is great, from being a Cap ascendant to being Sag. It is a whole hour difference which, as you know, throws a chart totally off.
Thanks again for your beautiful work

Alois mentioned on the 12th of october, in reply to a feedback, something about a swiss ephemeris online. How do I get access to this ephemeris? I need an ephemeris that will go back to the 16th century.
this is a well constructed site . . very alright. However I am not sure of the value of predictions that do not take into account the aspects etc of the natal chart. Jupiter conjunct the natal moon cannot amount to quite the same thing if Jupiter is opposite the moon in the natal chart. All the same it is a very good effort for what it is. How comes you hardly use the transits of Jupiter and saturn and most importantly the lunar nodes, for longer term prediction?

I have been studying astrophysics and astrology hand in hand and it has become painfully obvious that the dates and times you are using are not accurate. Look up PRECESSION in an astronomy book so you can understand that our perspective of the heavens changes by a degree every 72 years and that you cannot keep the same 3000 year old system as if the calender and zodiac match, because they don't. The Sun is in Pisces on March 21st and stays in Pisces for several days following, even into April. According to my research the Sun was right in the middle of Aquarius on February 21st, 1971 NOT Pisces! Go ask an Astronomer. Maybe this was true back in 1000 B.C. but the Heavens are constantly in motion.

Alois adds: Another wisecrack who thinks we are stupid. Please search the guestbook and guestbook archove for references to 'precession', or read the online Swiss Ephemeris documentation. You will be silent for a long time afterwards.



I found the services provided from Astro are very poor!
Firstly, the receiving antena is very weak, that is every raining day, mu home astro will be distorted and will not able to watch the programs. Second is the monthly program booklet, everymonth I receive late and for this month I have not receive yet. So please consider it because everymonth I pay a sum of money but the services is not worth for that money. Please improve your services.

I can only vaguely grasp how your Astro*Intelligence system works, but I am very pleased with the results! By far the best free charts I have found - it is clear that you are able to cater to those of us with less knowledge of astrology, as well as satisfying the pros.

Thanks too for the dailies - I notice some transits seem to manifest a lot more strongly than others, which is where the individual thinking comes into it! The longer-term transits are shockingly accurate.

that if it is a FULL Moon, ( or a NEW Moon.) ?
is there any way one can tell by looking at a char?

Hello everyone,
I love the astrodienst site and have used it for quite a while. Before that, I have read Liz Greene's work and I find it exceptional that such an accomplished person is also so accessible via this site.
Anyhow, my question is for anyone who may have some insight on this:-
How are we to interpret the parental archetypes and issues in the chart if the person was adopted at birth?

I am in this situation myself, and I have been studying my chart in terms of my adoptive parents for a while, which has been effective. Now I wonder where the unknown birth parents may fit in.
For example, if the MC and Tenth House have reference to the Mother-influence, which mother can we understand it to be? Does it relate to both, at different levels?

Thanks in advance for your feedback,
Cheers,
Jenny.

Alois, would it be correct to say, a Mecury Retrograde is a relativly feared occurance, during its 3 or 4 yearly transits?
Could it even have a reverse affect upon a individual, depending upon the persons individual chart? Eg, a mercury naturally occuring in retrograde. Love and Blessings.

Alois -
I've had problems with personal Charts in the past, due to the mis-configuration of daylight saving time. While I have gathered you adjust it automatically on ASTRODIENST, do you accomodate for the "of the moment" adjustments worldwide?
EG - With the Australian 2000 Olympics, our daylight saving time was in effect several months earlier than normal [to invoke that "Summer" feel.
doncha love it!] Love, Misty.

Hello to Alois, and all star and navel gavers!
(flower gazers!)
I have learnt of an alignment coming up in November, known as a GRAND TRINE. Between the
three "baddies" , Mars, Saturn and Pluto.
Apparently it is a very rare occurance. Because they join in Trine formation, they'll be getting
along famously however! Can anyone offer any
further details?
Love, Misty.

ok to the person who asked about career success as a musician...musical talent is usually indicate by the follow chart aspect and positions: venus in taurus or pisces, or the twelfth or second house, a stellium of planets in pisces/twelfth house, sun/neptune sextile, moon-venus sextile of trine, jupiter in libra, sun-neptune trine or sextile, strong, well aspected neptune. career success usually comes during good (trine or sextile) transits of jupiter, saturn, uranus, neptune, and occasionally pluto to your personal or imporant planets.

as for all thsoe people who want readings, i like doing them, but im no professional and i cant promise i'll be right about anything. if you still wanna hear my opinion you can email me. maybe i'll write back if i feel like it :)

Your daily horoscopes i.e. forecasts are quite amazing: not only are they correct, but also descriped in a very useful manner. Description of the various planes on which an astrological aspect should be understood and how one should or could best co-act with it, stemps from a very gifted astrologer. A very fine and helpful thing to read, without creating any kind of negative dependance on the forecast. Thanks for disposing it for free on internet.
