View Details of New Version 6 Features.

Detection and interpretation of Aspect Patterns is the biggest addition to version 7, with the ability to customize these patterns, search for charts with particular patterns, see all patterns listed in the Chart Analysis table with the planets or sectors that are part of each, and display the patterns graphically in a visually dramatic way in the zodiac-proportional Graphic Aspects wheel. As of version 7.1, you can add the $50.00 Halloran Aspect Patterns interpretations set which has 392 delineations for the 35 aspect patterns with all their possible focus and pattern planets. Besides generating a short Aspect Patterns Only report, you can now generate a Standard with Aspect Patterns natal report in which the final section delineates the chart's Aspect Patterns. A chart often has 4 or 5 aspect patterns, but we have seen all the way from 0 aspect patterns to 17 aspect patterns between the planets and Chiron (you have the choice of turning on the Ascendant and Midheaven, the Moon's Nodes, or the four major asteroids as additional pattern points, but these points are not delineated). Also new, Version 7.1 integrates with the ACS PC Atlas a new Geo Names Atlas of three million world cities. We have worked on this atlas for two years - the file for France is included with version 7.1 and all 230 countries are a $100 program add-on. Additionally, version 7 adds to the reportwriter the ability to delineate minor asteroids, both their sign and house placements and their aspects to planets, but you must supply these interpretations.

The optional Halloran TrueType Font is a clean, traditional set of over 80 astrological glyphs plus Times Roman-like English and foreign language characters. AstrolDeluxe for Windows, any version, can substitute the single-character TrueType glyphs for the planet, sign, and aspect names in its lists, tables, and now with version 8 its graphic wheels. You can also use this astrological font to put astrological glyph symbols into documents that you create in a Windows-based word processor. Now included at no additional cost - the Halloran Asteroid 1 font with glyphs for 51 asteroids.

The 4959 Famous Charts include all top celebrities and historical figures with good birth times for 2846. Any version of AstrolDeluxe can use the Famous Charts collection. Regarding the AstrolDeluxe chart search function that you can use to research either these celebrity charts or your own charts, American Astrology magazine said, "The searches are fast, unbelievably easy to perform, and very effective. This is a very well-designed feature." There is a special $89.00 bundle of the Famous Charts with the $40 Classic British Astro Report, below. See the list of Famous Charts added to version 7.0.

Kid Zone(tm) child natal reports - $100.00

These natal interpretations by New Zealand astrologer Marise Payne allow AstrolDeluxe ReportWriter to produce 45-page reports that are aimed at the parents of children. Light and compassionate, as well as detailed and accurate, the text of these very thorough reports describes the child in the third person by using the child's first name. The report concludes first by calculating and interpreting the three most powerful planets, signs, and houses in the child's chart and then by calculating and interpreting which elements and modalities are most abundant or lacking in the chart.

See sample interpretations.

Kid Zone(tm) with Sun/Moon child natal reports - $149.00
Upgrade price for users of the $100 Kid Zone - $50

The KidZone(tm) with Sun/Moon child report draws upon an additional 300 pages of interpretation text from Marise Payne beyond what was in her original Kid Zone database. The new KidZone with Sun/Moon interpretations contain pinpoint accurate interpretations of the 144 Sun/Moon combinations together with text that the reportwriter will insert near the end of the Sun/Moon interpretation in order to describe the combination of the Moon with the Ascendant. The combination of the Sun, Moon, and Ascendant gives a very accurate reading.

For cases where the chart is for an unknown birth time, or where the birth was around sunrise which makes the Ascendant the same as the Sun sign, the program will insert text for the Moon/Decan combination.

The KidZone(tm) with Sun/Moon child report requires at least minor version 6.3.15 of AstrolDeluxe ReportWriter. If you have an earlier 6.3 minor version, visit the Updates page. The KidZone(tm) with Sun/Moon interpretation database is 3.8 Mb in size and comes on a CD-ROM disk.

These reports are not just for the parents of children. Many adult tendencies start in childhood. Achieve the deepest understanding of anyone's psychology with these combined delineations.

Halloran Aspect Patterns(tm) addition to natal reports - $50.00 - NEW

John Halloran spent nine months researching the lives of real people who have the 35 different aspect patterns that AstrolDeluxe ReportWriter (ver. 7.1 or higher) can detect. The result are these 392 well-grounded, non-theoretical interpretations which include the planets out to Chiron. Print just a patterns report or include at the end of a natal report. Since these patterns represent configurations of at least three or more of the planets in the native's chart, their interpretation represents a higher-level synthesis of how the planets uniquely express their energies in the native's life. The low price should enable all astrologers to start adding these syntheses to their chart interpretation.

See sample interpretations.

StarMatch(tm) professional compatibility reports - $100.00
Price for users of the $59 StarMatch for DOS - $50

To the sign placement and synastry aspect delineations in the DOS-based StarMatch compatibility software program, these interpretations for the Windows-based ReportWriter add delineations for one person's planets in the other person's houses, producing a truly professional report of romantic compatibility between two people. The StarMatch 25- to 30-page compatibility report outlines the needs and strengths that the two subjects bring to their relationship, as well as how they affect and support each other. The report lets the client see the similarities, differences, rewards, and challenges of being with this other person, based on the personal planet sign placements, the mutual house placements, and the aspects between the planets of the two charts, where these interpretations appear in order of strength. The report gives a numerical evaluation of the communication and the harmonious versus inharmonious aspects at the end. Some clients describe using these reports to evaluate prospective partners, whereas other clients have described how the reports gave them a better understanding of their relationship and saved their marriage. Although romantic in nature, the report is free of gender-bias.

See sample interpretations.

LifeTrends(tm) professional transits reports - $100.00
Price for users of the $59 LifeTrends for DOS - $50

This interpretation set for the Windows-based ReportWriter has greatly expanded the transiting Jupiter through Pluto delineations (compared to the DOS-based LifeTrends program). Jupiter through Pluto are the most significant transiting planets. If you are new to astrological forecasting, I suggest that you start with transits before learning about progressions. Progressions are a more advanced technique. You will probably make more use of the LifeTrends transits forecast reports than any other interpretation set on your computer - the transiting planets overhead are constantly moving and forming different aspects to the planets in the natal chart. Transits to the natal chart by the slow-moving planet Pluto are very effective in shaking up one's life, during those years when transiting Pluto aspects one's natal chart angles and personal planets. Talk to any astrologer about Pluto's transits and you will find emphatic agreement about its life-changing power. Astrologers also know how the transits of Saturn correlate with life decisions and career climax points. Jupiter transits are usually times of glamor and prosperity. The LifeTrends interpretation set has interpretations for all the transiting planets, from the fast-moving Moon through slow-moving Pluto and, if you choose to include it, transiting Chiron. The fast-moving planets up to transiting Mars have one-paragraph interpretations. The slower-moving planets starting with Jupiter have three- to five-paragraph interpretations. The report-length depends on which transiting planets you select, the time period of your report (usually from one to three months, but can be as short as one day or several years if you select just the slowest-moving planets), and on the fact that some months are busier and have more transiting aspects than do other, quieter months.

See sample interpretations.

Journey Returns(tm) professional Solar Return reports - $100.00

This well organized yearly forecast report by Anthony Louis delineates the placements and aspects for all of the solar return planets and indicates when, during the year following the birthday, aspects will perfect in a Standard 40-page report. You can also choose the Intermediate, Advanced, or Concise Advanced template in order to add exact timing calculation and interpretation of the sun's transits and the progressed Ascendant and Midheaven during the course of the solar return year in reports that range from 60 to 110 pages.

For many years the author was disappointed with the predictive value of solar returns. Then he discovered the work of the French astrologer Volguine, which forms the framework of this report. Volguine studied the existing literature on solar returns and experimented with innumerable charts to refine a method for interpreting return charts that is surprisingly powerful and accurate. The Journey Returns report provides thorough delineations of all factors in the return chart compared to the natal chart, and you have the option of ending the report with a step-by-step summary of Volguine's method that will delight astrologers. As with all of the reports by Anthony Louis, the author has carefully tested the delineations for accuracy in hundreds of charts of individuals with well documented biographies.

To run the Journey Returns reports, you need version 6.1 or later of Halloran Software's AstrolDeluxe ReportWriter.

See sample interpretations.

Journey Progressions(tm) professional Secondary Progressions reports - $100.00

This is a very complete, professionally written set of progressed interpretations, suitable for delineating the progressions list that AstrolDeluxe ReportWriter calculates. The report begins with a general overview of the house and sign placement of each secondary progressed planet. It then lists and delineates each progressed to natal planet aspect as it perfects in chronological order.

Secondary progressions are a time-honored method of forecasting major trends for the year ahead. They are based on the symbolic movement of the chart at a rate of one day in the ephemeris for each year of life; this is sometimes called the "day equals a year" formula. Secondary progressions represent a powerful technique that provides insight into the dynamic unfolding of the chart during the course of the life cycle. Used in conjunction with a study of transits and the solar return, the method of secondary progressions provides a framework for understanding future trends.

The author based the delineations in this report on a review of the astrological literature and the study of hundreds of charts of family, friends, clients, and public figures. Interpretations were included only if they could be demonstrated to hold water when tested in the lives of actual individuals. The result is a set of delineations of secondary progressed aspects that are often uncannily on target.

The author, Anthony Louis, called my attention to his interpretation for Progressed Mars SemiSquare Neptune as this dangerous progressed aspect was exact for Princess Diana on September 2, 1997, one day after her death involving machinery and drink.

See sample interpretations.

Journey Careers(tm) Reports - $100.00

These career-oriented natal interpretations allow AstrolDeluxe ReportWriter to produce a comprehensive 35-page natal report filled with vocational astrology suggestions about the type of work for which the native is best suited. This ambitious report takes advantage of the report writer's ability to 1) delineate the native's three most dominant planets, signs, and houses, 2) to refine the sign placements by delineating the actual decan within the sign for the Sun, Moon, Ascendant, and Midheaven, 3) to delineate intercepted signs within houses, and 4) to outline the dates of the native's career rise and fall cycle based on the fourth house cusp sign.

The author based his delineations on a review of the astrological literature and the study of hundreds of charts of individuals with demonstrated success in various careers. Each interpretation was further tested against a database of clients, friends, and notable figures to verify the accuracy. The focus of the report is both vocational and psychological because personality traits and preferences play a major role in career selection. The result is a fascinating natal chart interpretation with a special emphasis on vocational factors in the chart.

To run these reports, you need at least version 4.1.11 of AstrolDeluxe ReportWriter.

Placidus 7.0 - $480.00

Version 7.0 of Placidus adds supports for the extensive Porphyrius Magus add-on module for ancient astrology. New Porphyrius Magus features include The Celestial Pentagram of Venus, The Circle of Petosiris, The Oktatopon, Heliacal Calendar, Paranatellonta, Parapegma, Heliacal phases of stars and planets, 2D images of the zodiac with the stars, and The Hermetic Zodiac with all 3 kinds of projection of the stars (simple, paranatellonta and ortus). Porphyrius Magus will find the Hyleg, Alcocoden, and Almuten of the chart - the astral trinity of Hellenistic, Arab, and Medieval Astrology which are needed in order to do traditional style prognostication. The module can calculate according to the rules of 6 Hellenistic, 3 Arab, and 1 Medieval author: Dorotheus, Rhetorius-Valens, Valens, Ptolemy, Porphyry, Paulus Alexandrinus, Omar Tiberiades, Alchabitius, Abenragel, and Regiomontanus. The graphic interface shows in an organized way the intermediate thought processes that lead from candidacy to final winner for The God's Light (Hyleg), The Guardian Angel (Alcocoden), and The Ego (Almuten) or Ruler planet that most epitomises the Nativity. The module shows whether a planet is in a degree of hays, if it is a solar or lunar doriphoria (or 'spearbearer', a condition of eminence), or in its own bounds according to the Egyptian, Chaldean, and Ptolemaic systems. The dynamic Heliacal Module features heliacal phase calculations which, based on over 300 observations, are more accurate than any other modern source. This program is for the serious researcher who wants to go deep into Ancient, Hellenistic, and Arab Astrology. Rumen Kolev has investigated firsthand ancient Akkadian and Hermetic sources and the medieval Greek and Latin books which have been preserved in the large national libraries of Europe (see his book Gauricus & Henry II - Medieval Astrological Prognosis which is volume 1 of The Primary Directions & History of Astrology series). We are fortunate that he has created the technology to reproduce the calculations in these sources and has made that technology accessible to all in this attractive modern computer program.
