Horoscope Window
The Horoscope windows appears when you choose the menu item Horoscope | New Horoscope or Edit Horoscope.
There are currently four choices for the type of horoscope. A typical horoscope of birth is called Standard.
Derived allows for the creation of a single chart based on a transit or direction.
Comparison (Standard/Standard) allows for the creation of a dual chart that compares a primary event to that of either a date or secondary event. Primarily used for producing a dual (synastry) chart.
Comparison (Standard/Derived) allows for the creation of a dual chart that compares a primary event to that of either a date or secondary event. Primarily used for producing a dual (transit or progressed) chart.
The Primary Event Data box, allows for the selection of a saved Event by clicking on the "Load..." button, or the quick list from the down arrow adjacent to this button. If you choose to create a new Event, click the "New..." button and enter a Name, Date and Location within the new event window.
If the Secondary source for comparison charts is a date, enter the appropriate date below this block.
If the Secondary source for comparison charts is a saved Event, click on the "Load..." button, or the quick list from the down arrow adjacent to this button. You may also create a new Event in the same manner as for a new Primary Event.
For derived charts, choose either Transit or Progression, and a sub-type if applicable.
If the horoscope is a derived horoscope, you can choose the type (direction, transit) and a sub-type if applicable.
Horoscope Description should be a suitable caption for the chart. In case of a birth horoscope, it will usually be the name of the person, or an event. For comparison charts, it will usually be something like "Sue and John".
