2.0 out of 5 stars No daily transits, September 4, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Astrology Source (CD-ROM)

If you are looking for an ephemeris for daily transits, you will not find it here. The daily scope on the disc that I have doesn't properly match day and date, for instance, Tuesday September 4, 2000 (actual date was Monday, September 4, 2000).

1.0 out of 5 stars Not a UserFriendly Product, August 12, 2001

This product is not user friendly. In many cases the exact longitude and latitude of the city must be entered. If you were born at 12 a.m. or 12 p.m.; the program frequently will set your chart ahead or behind 12 hours. To give an example, I was born shortly after midnight and quite close to the Pacific Time Zone (but, still in the Mountain Time Zone). My chart had me born after high noon and the moon in the next sign. I was able to somewhat remedy this by setting the birth time by one hour using daylight savings time. The Ascendant is still off by at least 8 degrees. A chart wheel is not with this program. The interpretations are "cookbook"(Sun Conjunct Moon in Aquarius will be different than Sun Conjunct Moon in Scorpio,yet the printout interpretation will be the same). Planet /House interpretations are only given for planets in the First House. However, yet again, Saturn in Capricorn in the First House will be interpreted exactly like Saturn in Gemini in the First House. I could not in good conscience charge a paying client for printouts because of the weaknesses of this package. I bought this software package at a bricks and mortar store at a "fire sale" price($...). This was still too much for the product. Are there any good points? The chart can be set to three different House Systems (Placidus, Koch, and Equal House). Aspect Orbs can be set to your liking(0.0-9.9 Degrees). If this is the best mass market astrological software package available; wait a few years for a more acceptable package.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed Hobbyist, January 2, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Astrology Source (CD-ROM)

I like to give perfunctory astrology charts to the newborns and their families in my life in a little bound booklet with a chart and some text showing an interpretation of the natal chart. This program cannot produce a wheel! What a waste. Furthermore, it also does not perform compatibility charts, which are fun, even if they are wrong. . . . .
