I have a question regaurding the Grand Cross aspect. Now, in a book I
purchased, it said that the Grand Cross is created by two sets of opposing
*planets* that form a square in a chart. Now on my chart there seems to be a
Grand Cross, but one of the points is my Midheaven, which raises the question
of whether a Grand Cross can only be made through planets or whether a
Midheaven can also be a point in a grand cross. (By the way, my supposed
Grand Cross is formed by pluto in scorpio opposing jupiter in taurus, and my
midheaven in leo opposing mars in aquarius, just to give you an idea of what
I'm talking about).
I thank you for your time in advance.

Alois,
Your website is a good barometer concerning the international interest in
astrology. About 2 years ago, I asked the question about the number of people
visiting your website. Your answer was: about 50.000 per day. Which is a
positive indicator of success for you.
I would like to ask you the question again. Mainly because now uranus is in
pisces. What are your current figures?
I thank you a lot in advance,

I would like Health issues to be addressed in my horoscope. Would you
personalize a reading for me? Are there any other options for this?
Thank you for your great webpage, It has been very helpful.

Hi everyone and thanks so much for this great astrology site. I've long been
a fan of Robert Hand and Liz Greene (two of my favorite astrologers and
authors).
So Robert, while checking out my transits, I came across the strangest
interpretation of Chiron/Venus...it just doesn't sound like your usual,
insightful guidance. Anyway, I just thought I'd give you a heads up so you
can check it out for yourself, in case someone else wrote this for you....

Alois adds: A computer can interpret your horoscope, if you give your birth
informations and the computer computes your chart, and astrologers contribute their knowledge.
A computer cannot interpret your dreams because there is no practical
way (yet?) to tell them to the computer so that it understands the data.
I think your service is great--wonderful transit readings with a nice mix of
spiritual and romantic elements. The only way it could be better would be if
I could have it as a program on my computer.

I find the feedback from different people really interesting, even though
most of the people writing seem to want something for nothing. I'm not
asking Astrodienst to stop doing their good work but for those writing in
complaining about costs for a Horoscope why don't you try seeing anyone in
the psychological field and see how much it costs. Life is a learning
experience. We struggle to walk, talk, socialize, even to die. If we hold
on in the stormy aspects by understanding them it makes the journey easier.
The sooner we learn that life isn't always a bowl of cherries we can
understand that what we are doing is learning day by day, year by year, by
finally becoming who we are supposed to be. We all have talents, faults,
problems, etc. etc. It's up to us to either get help and accept it or go
butting our heads against the wall until we finally understand. It's also
called Karma. In life there is sadness, joy, love, hate, etc. etc. It's up
to us to opt for the love and the joy as it often erases the sadness and
hate.
I have Sun conj. Saturn so I learned at a very early age to fend for myself
and grow up. I didn't like it at the time but it made me a better human
being. Discipline never hurt anyone. Otherwise we would just roll over in
bed every day not working, going to school in short not doing what we have to
do to survive. We have it good now. Think of our ancestors who faced hard
weather with no central heating. They survived! So get off your asses and
stop complaining and find yourselves good friends, food and laughter and
remember that we are all human treasures and, as such, we deserve the best!
Astrology is the best way to understand ourselves and others and find out
what makes people tick. It's not easy but it usually has the answers it's up
to us to decipher them.

Thank you astrodienst for the Only website I've found to be well written,
thought provoking, informative, and user friendly in my 10 years of
astrological studies. I would like to comment to the two terribly negative
comments recently written by one K. Jones and as well a Giovanna. First of
all....I have a stellium of planets in Virgo, including my sun, venus, pluto
(nevermind saturn in the 6th house) and boy do I know how to pick things
apart. However, I think you may find that compared to other astrological
interpretations, astrodienst is overall written assembled quite well. No
matter who you are, or what you are reading, you will have to filter through
what you read in your own terms. Astrology is not here to make us feel
better. If those are your goals, you may want to resort to your local
newspaper sun sign astrological column.
Astrology is a language and when
used properly, it has the ability to help you to get to know yourself on a
new level. IF you are willing to go there in your heart and mind.
Individuation is inevitably a painful process and my guess is that the two of
you out there complaining about this site are either pre first saturn return
or denying your own saturn in some way. Otherwise you would not be blaming
other people for your own inadequacies misunderstandings. If you are
reading it to brighten your day, you will over and over be let down. Try
doing yoga or reading the comics section for that.
Giavanna, I have not
always liked, agreed with, or resonated with all of the daily horoscopes I
have read in here, but I filter through what I need to. Each individual will
respond differently to each aspect, thank goodness. Try maybe looking at
your chart on your own (with books from a bookstore) to see if you can find
better descriptions of your aspects. Or put this site down for a short
period of time and then come back to it, maybe it will resonate with you
differently later. K. Jones, you need some exercise babe! Maybe a judo
class. Come on! Fight the right war..........with compassion for your sense
of frustration, I must say.....have you tried reading up on your own aspects
by other authors?
There are astrologers out there who will tell you what you
want to hear rather than straight forward basic meanings of particular
transits. You are clearly upset about some things going on in your
life....are you fighting the right battle by mentioning words like snotty,
etc to people who have dedicated their life to helping others who are trying
to achieve personal development? I hope you will go into this quietly with
yourself.
Thanks again to you astrodienst for not always telling me what I want to
hear, or agree with, but for being straight. My hope for both of these
people(women?) is that they will grow through their experience with being let
down and realize it too is part of their path towards hopefully a greater
understanding of themselves. Can anyone besides me feel the full moon
outside my window building? Ohhhh Laaaa Laaaa.........Namaste.

Boulder, CO, USA --- Sunday, January 23, 2005 at 13:37 Universal Time
Alois adds: I disbelieve the word 'usually'. You certainly have observed only a few such days, and those are
because they have the same transit, due to some natal planet in a close-by
position.
Please see also the FAQ entry How can
two people born at different times have exactly the same daily horoscope?
Hello everyone!
Can somebody please tell me what is the meaning of the following aspects -
Uranus and Pluto in Virgo in the 7th house opposition Saturn and Chiron in

Alois adds: On the map is Charleston, South Carolina.
Anyway, I doubt that Astrodienst's credibility depends on the map images in
Astroclick travel. Those were copied from some free map source. Our
credibility comes out of the work we do, and we don't worry about it in the
least.
Hi, I really like the writing style and depth of ideas communicated on this
site. I've been using the astro travel option and find it uncannily accurate
based on checking places I've lived before, what I experienced there. Now
I'm looking into a possible move but it seems the map for N.America has a
mistake. Charleston, West Virginia is in the wrong place. It should be
north east of Richmond, Virginia but you have it almost parallel to Atlanta,
Georgia. If it is possible to correct that, I think it would up your
credibility. Nevertheless, much of what is written, as I said before, is
quite spot on.
Thanks and best of luck in the New Year!

THis is the most negative astrology sight I have yet to encounter. I don't
fully understand the smaller details of each reading, but frequently, your
reading for me is far off. I feel very discouraged by reading your sight and
have been avoiding it lately. I know that I don't pay for it, but there is
no way that I would even consider it on the basis that I dont' need daily
discouragement.

Lieber Alois, I would love to understand the role The Birthplace plays in
determining one's ascendant, for instance. It seems that although The
Birthplace is always requested along with The Time of Birth, it gets ignored
when determining the ASC e.g., a 3:30 PM birth time on 3 Dec. 1946 makes me
have a Taurus ASC regardless of whether I was born in San Francisco, East
Java/Indonesia, or London. So, why do we need to have The Birthplace? Thank
you for your informative and helpful website. Peace,
Grace.
Grace M a c k e r t i c h
Pacifica, USA --- Thursday, January 20, 2005 at 03:35 Universal Time
Alois adds: This is about the part of the sky you see above you. The ecliptic
is an imaginary circle on the sky, half visible, half underground at any
moment, and it rotates around once every 24 hours.
the ecliptic is the path along which the Sun moves in the course of a year,
and all planets move also close to the same path.
As a circle, the ecliptic has 360 degrees. We divide them in 12 sections,
called 'signs' of 30 degrees each.
The Ascendant is that degree of the ecliptic, which rises in the east at
the given birth time, as seen from the birth place.
If you go east by 40 miles, the next degree will already be rising, if
you go west 40 miles, an earlier degree will be rising. In the average
it takes 4 minutes for a degree to rise, but it is irregular, some signs
rise slow, some fast, again depending on where you are on earth.
Because the visible half of the sky varies, depending on where you are on
earth at the given moment, the birth place is essential to get the Ascendant
and the houses, which are division of the celestia hemispheres, correctly computed.
I love your site! My question is do you have a chart for progressed
declinations a year for a day? I do them by hand on a graph giving each
planet a different colour. It is very informative when you see the things
that happen when the lines cross. Thanks and keep up the great work. Jayne

Hi,
Thanks for your wonderful site! One thing would make the work I'm doing far
easier: Referring to the Ebertin style chart, which lists both longitudinal
and declinatinonal degrees could you include on the 75% size printout a
graph line down the left side of the page and one down the right side of the
page? (with small horizontal lines for each degree) The line would begin at
the bottom ( 0 degrees ) and terminate at the top (30 degrees). I manually
plot the planets' degree and sign. This format makes it very easy to
visually identify close 30degree aspects and NorthSouth declinational
aspects. It also makes doing synastry and transit /progression readings a
breeze.
Does that request make sense to you? If I can clarify please don't hesitate
to email me.

Hallo, ich bin von dieser Internetseite sehr begeistert. Es sah selten eine
so informative Seite und überwiegend kostenlos.
Jetzt habe ich allerdings auch eine Frage: Ist es wahr, daß der Planet Venus
im Verlauf seiner Bewegung in 8 Jahren einen fünfstrahligen Stern an den
Himmel zeichnet? Ich habe diese Information aus einem Krimi und deshalb auch
keinen weiteren Literaturhinweis dazu. Für Infos wäre ich sehr dankbar.
thea2005
Deutschland --- Tuesday, January 18, 2005 at 19:02 Universal Time
Alois adds: Ja, das ist wahr, wenn man geozentrisch die Venusbahn aufzeichnet,
so formt sich ein Fünfeck. Da Ihnen Angaben von vergriffenen Büchern, die
sich damit befassen, wenig nützen, habe ich schnell mit den Suchbegriffen
'venus pentacle orbit' in Google nachgesehen. Hier ist eines der
nützlichen Resultate (etwas weiter nach unten scrollen).
Dan Brown hat das nicht frei erfunden, wie er überhaupt ja grossenteils
abgeschrieben hat für den Da Vinci Code, ohne seine Quellen zu nennen.
I am amazed at how accurate your horoscopes are, and it has made me
reconsider astrology and take it more seriously than I probably ought to.
When the forecasts are positive, it is very encouraging. I just wonder if
there is any way you could be less negative when the forecasts are bad, or
maybe not project so far into the future. A person who is depressed or
suicidal could be pushed over the edge by my forecast from April 2005 through
Jan. 2007, entitled More Arguments in which I'm told I will have a generally
awful time, be unable to get along with anyone or to expect a good outcome in
any legal or relationship matter. It is extremely discouraging. My life is
rocky enough right now, and it seems like you could at least express your
forecasts a little less severely, or put some kind of helpful thoughts about
how to cope, or how it might be possible to get through this awful time. I am
really bothered at the idea of two years ahead of misery that you have set
out for me. At least please don't forecast bad things for two long years to
come-- a couple of bad months at a time are hard enough to face! I hate to
think what a person more depressed (and I am generally slightly depressed)
than me would feel when faced with my cheery prediction of More Arguments,
breakups, not being able to trust even your most trusted friends, legal
battles, etc. UNTIL JANUARY 2007! I'm really scared to think what is going to
happen in April when this bad stretch of time is predicted to begin. I have a
feeling your answer will be terse too, like your forecasts. But please
remember people need a little hope along with the bad news.

Alois adds: I have found that some people attach themselves to 'bad news' and
ignore the rest. They should not.
If anyone WANTS to be depressed, watching the news on TV is more than enough.
Our horoscopes are really not needed if justfication for 'going over the edge'
is required.
I recommend that psychologically unstable people should stay away from any
horoscopes, fortune cookies, kitchen devices, roads, railways, bodies of water, mountains,
weapons and matches.

Dear Alois,
As you know, I've used your site extensively in my astrological research. In
fact, since I don't yet have a computer, I couldn't have done it without your
excellent calculation service. I may yet send a donation to compensate
AstroDienst now that I am working full time at a Buddhist center, but it
occurred to me that another way to pay for your services would be to offer
some of my results to you and your feedback readers without charge. I noticed
that during the recent holiday season you had a note on your site about the
worthwhile work of Dr Beat Richner who is working in Cambodia to help restore
the medical infrastructure and education there. Since Cambodia is also
recovering its cultural heritage of Buddhism, the following information may
be of interest.

Birth Chart of Buddha
I read the new article on your site on chart rectification by Richard Vetter,
but I will boldly let these charts speak for themselves anyway. I am becoming
more convinced with each project that an exact birth time--to better than a
minute of time--is quite crucial for event work. After all, how else can we
astrologically distinguish the lives of twins born just minutes apart?
Kind regards and Best wishes for the new year,

Alois adds: Dear Wayne, I have moved the long part of your article to a separate page;
it would otherwise break the structure (and purpose) of our feedback area.
It would have been better to submit this article as a separate html document
instead of typing it into our feedback form, though I can't promise that we would have published
it. We are very eclectic. An astrological magazine (e.g. Mountain Astrologer)
might be a better place for such work.
Of course it is acceptable to use astrological reasoning and speculation to find an unknown
birth date. (See Der Stern von
Bethlehem) I would not call this kind of work 'rectification', though. If one does that kind of work,
one should be aware that one goes through a process of projecting one's image
of a person onto the sky, using some personally preferred astrological
techniques. Like movies, this is a projection, which may be of high public
interest, of entertainment and of information value.
Regarding the issue of Twin Charts: rectification is certainly worthless
for those. Most twin births are recorded very precisely, e.g. I know the
time of my twin daughters with a precision of 5 seconds. "Rectification"
can do nothing to improve a precisely recorded time.
Please see our FAQ for information on

Hallo und guten Tag!
Ich bin auf der Suche nach einer Möglichkeit an eine KarmaAnalyse in Bezug

Thanks, Alois, You are right. Thanks for the times and zones, ect. I was just
curious as to forces at work, not that there was a particular meaning or
purpose ... just thought the chart would be of interest. Thanks again!

Dang, I wish I was eligible for that job position! My dream come true would
be to work with you all! :-) What I wanted to ask was: are you going to be
doing a chart in relation to the tsunami disaster? Thanks again for this
wonderful site!

Alois adds: A chart is easy to do, just enter the date and time to create
one. We have added a location named 'Tsunami Earthquake 26-dc-2004' and
assigned the timezone of Sumatra to it (7he). The earthquake was 26 Dec 2004,
07:58:53 local time.
A reading is not likely to come. I see not much point in an astrological
metagnosis of such a natural disaster. Collective events like this happen,
and do not necessarily radiate 'meaning'. They are just very sad for
those affected.
Die Anzeige von Liz Greenes Sag mir dein Sternzeichen u. ich sage dir wie du
liebst stimmt nicht mehr. Der Text für die Skorpion-Frau war ein anderer als
für den Skorpion-Mann. Jetzt erscheint bei dem weiblichen Zeichen derselber
Text wie beim Männlichen. Kann man das wieder ändern?

I just want to say thanks. This is the absolute best astrological website I
have ever visited. It is now my favorite and I visit it everyday. I could
not believe how accurate my readings are. I am very grateful for all that
you do to help me prepare myself just a little bit better now for whatever
challenges may come in the days of my life. It is also fun to learn more
about myself as well as my loved ones. Thanks again and keep up the good
work!

To Edna Osidak of Montreal: According to AstroDatabank, Scott Peterson was
born on October 24, 1972, at 9:36 AM (PDT), in San Diego, California. His
wife Laci was born on May 4, 1975, at 4:44 AM (PDT), in Modesto, California.
The birth data for both of these people come from Arlene DeAngelus, who has
the birth certificates in hand, so the data is rated AA by the Rodden system.

First, thank you for your recent change to the Daily Horoscope format for
subscribers. Invariably I would switch to the Extended option when the more
limited version came up first. A good, simple, appreciated change!
Second - I couldn't find an avenue for a Customer Service question, so I'll
try this way. How can I order a second copy of a Psychological Horoscope and
the Relationship Horoscope? My partner and I are often in different places,
so having a second copy of these would be helpful to both of us.
Thank you for a wonderful service, and truly amazing interactive site!

I love this site. It has been an endless supply of information on charts and
readings. I did have one question:
On the sign/house dispositor hierarchies, what do the light blue circles and
black circles around the planet symbols mean?
Thanks!

Burlington, Vermont, USA --- Saturday, January 8, 2005 at 00:03 Universal Time
Alois adds: I am not sure, but I think the blank circles stand for planet
in its own sign (in sign dispositor graph) or house (in house dispositor
graph). The light blue circles I think come in pairs or triplets and indicate mutual or 'circular'
reception between the planets paired or 'tripleted'. Such graphs can get quite
complicated.

Hi Astrodienst
Happy New Year, and thank you for this site. I've been a regular visitor
since 1996, so that's over 8 years now!
My question is this:
For the last 3 or 4 years I've been ordering the Transits of the Year
booklet, which is fascinating and useful. A funny thing has happened for the
month of January 2005, though .. there are no significant transits from the
outer planets to my natal chart.
How common is this? And waht does it mean in practical terms? Have other
feedback readers experienced anything similar? What effect did it have?
Just curious

future and all the best in the lives of each and every one of your team.

Dear Astrodienst, do you do rectified birth times? My mother told me I was
born around 7pm on May 25 but my birth certificiate says the date was May 28.
I was born in a private hospital and the records apparently were destroyed so
I can't get a correct time or date. This is heartbreaking. I have relied on a
chart done for May 25 1946 at a rectified time of 6.45pm, but the transits
have never really matched up. Now my mother (aged 85) says she thinks it was
May 28 in the early afternoon. If you don't do rectified charts, is there
anywhere you would recommend I try?

Alois adds: We do not offer birthtime rectification service.
There are several problems associated with such a procedure:
- it requires an extensive interview with the person, to try to find
relevant events
- the techniques used vary from astrologer to astrologer, and the results
vary accordingly. Each astrologer will find a different 'rectified' time. I
personally don't think that the result is worth the effort and cost in many
cases.
You can do something very important yourself, if your mother is still lucid at her age.
Please take an afternoon to spend with your mother. Do not be invasive with
questions. Rather, try to create a warm and peaceful atmosphere and make the
attempt of re-living the day when you were born, even the day before.
Try to go through her with every small detail which she might be able to
remember, about the circumstances of the final days of her pregnance, the
first symptoms of the upcoming birth and everything around that.
In such a 'memory session' circumstances might come to light which will allow
you to pinpoint the time.
If your mother has had several children, make sure that no confusion with
her other birth experiences happens, by trying to remember also those in
details.
I wanted to comment on secondary progressions - I took my progressed
birthdate with the progressed chart selection in Astrodienst Round reports,
then took that, saved it as a birthdate, then selected the progressed chart
selection AGAIN, and got progressions for it! It turned out to be very
interesting! To me, that is a secondary progression, or the progressed
progression! Of course, the data will change slowly as time goes by, and
after about a month or two I will re-enter data as it corresponds with the
new time. How valid do you readers think this data would be??!! And would
you use the current city of residence or birth city?!
Thanks loads for a truly indispensable site - even beginners remotely
versed in astrology could not find a better place to put it all together!!
The scope of what you offer outshines anybody else. Keep up the good
work!

I had ordered the psychological report for my cousins 50th birthday and I
would like to praise astro.com for speedy service. However, the report
leaves much to be desired. It was a complete disappointment for both me and
my cousin. She read me parts of the report and it seems to me to be pieces
of a puzzle that were not put together. In other words the report
concentrated on the chart without putting it all into a coherent analysis of
the individual. For example certain portions would coincide with a portion
of her chart, but did not explain how such an aspect would affect the
individual.
Bad Report!!!

hello, thank you for this wonderful place. i use it every day.
i have a question for you - that is - i am wondering if you have ever
considered making available an interactive synastry sky chart? you do this
very wonderfully for the composite, but upon first meeting someone and
throughout your entire lives the synastry is what is really real and not the
composite. also, i have been doing a lot of research with regard to some of
the asteroids (i.e. Eros and Psyche). i would like to hear what your
thoughts/descriptions would be for some of the aspects i have encountered.
thank you. mia copp

Re the earthquake and the tsunami desaster in South Asia: I would like to
mention that the similar tragedy in Lissabon in 1755 was just 249 ago -
therefore it must have been in the same possition of Pluto to Earth. Do you
think it is coincidence or does it have a higher meaning?
Kind regards to Alois and to the readers and Happy New Year!

I've also been utilizing your Astro-Travel Map because I may be in a
situation to have to relocate in the near future. There is one general area
that is high on my list that coincides with a point where my husbands Venus
and Moon lines intersect. Is there any way to get the exact longitudes and
latitudes for any of these lines - especially where they intersect one
another? Thanks.
Have a great New Year! This is going to be an exciting one with some dynamic

Allow me to thank you for this wonderful site and to wish you and the entire

I hope you'll allow a quick question: I just requested a free horoscope: a
natal chart with progressions and solar arcs. (Type 246.GR.)
I understand all the information except for this: Within the outermost ring
are tiny red glyphs with lines extending counterclockwise. Since progressions
are green and solar arcs blue, what am I looking at when I note these red
glyphs and lines?
Thank you in advance,

Alois adds: these are the paths of the transiting planets in the course of

I stumbled on your web site one day and I have been impressed ever since - I
have always been interested in astrology but found that many books on the
subject were dry and mathematically complicated, your site has helped me
understand astrology in more easier terms and has renewed my interest in the
subject. I have even started to draw charts for myself . I would like to
thank you especially for the free information/chart profiles - it is vary
rare these days to find [quality] free
software on the web which is both informative and accurate. Well done you
web masters keep it up. All the best to you and the fellow subscribers.
