Explore the program screen, chart preview and current settings.

The program workspace
Menus, current settings, chart preview and calculated charts together.
Seven tools. One sky.
Professional astrology software, now native on Mac and rebuilt for Windows. Calculate charts with Swiss Ephemeris precision, follow the timing with transits, progressions and directions, map planetary lines across the world and present the result on pages you design, all in one workspace.
Charting
See the whole picture at once. Natal, composite, Davison and derived charts side by side, on wheels and page layouts you design once and reuse every time.
Forecasting
Know what is coming and when. Transits, progressions and directions as event reports, Time Maps and the Graphic Ephemeris, so the timing of a chart reads at a glance.
Research
Ask your chart library a question. Search stored charts, or scan a date range for the moments that meet your conditions, then open the matches and keep working.
Maps
Put a chart on the map. Trace planetary lines across the world, pick a place and open its relocated chart with houses and angles recalculated.
Symmetry
Midpoint and dial work built in, not bolted on. A dedicated dial workspace with positional and midpoint listings for Uranian and cosmobiology practice.
Reports
Hand your clients something worth keeping. Analytical tables, chart material and Speculum views, with crisp vector PDF export for supported HTML reports.
Interpretations
Start the reading, then make it yours. Chart-linked interpretation text sits beside the factors you are studying, and you can edit it in your own words.
