What is "bookmarking" or "favorites"?
Bookmarks made through your web browser offer a convenient way to retrieve your favorite pages without needing to remember the URL or address. It is best to bookmark your reading page immediately.

To bookmark a page using Internet Explorer, go to the "Favorites" menu on your web browser and select "Add to Favorites…" If you use Netscape Communicator, go to the "Communicator Menu". Under the "Bookmarks" section, select "Add Bookmarks". If you use AOL, follow the instructions on AOL for adding favorites.

  • For PC Users: Place the mouse/pointer over your chart and click the right-side button on your mouse until a menu appears.

  • From the menu, select "Save image as…"
  • Select the folder/directory where you would like to store your chart wheel and click the "Save" button.
  • Repeat for each chart wheel you wish to save.

    How do I read my chart wheel?
    It is not necessary to learn to read your chart wheel in order to get the most out of your reading. Your chart wheel is a graphical representation of the location of the Planets in your natal chart and their relationships with each other. Your reading is an interpretation of some or all of the placements and relationships (or aspects) on your chart wheel.

    It takes time and determination to learn how to read and interpret your chart wheel on your own. You can start by visiting the following pages:

    How do I read my Forecast Reading?
    The "Natal Positions" listed in your forecast refer to the positions of the Planets when you were born -- for example: Sun in Taurus, Moon in --- (you fill in the blanks with whichever Sign applies to your chart).

    "Planet to Planet" describes the relationship of one Planet to another. (e.g. Sun Square Moon means that the Sun was square -- 90 degrees -- to the Moon at the time you were born).

    Your Forecast Reading is based on current astrological activity in relation to your natal chart. The time period included in parenthesis for each entry indicates the length of time that particular transit will last. There can be several Forecast entries for the same day or sometimes none at all. Some transits (astrological activity) are very quick and only last a few hours, particularly Moon transits (i.e. Moon conjunct natal Mars, etc.). These transits are not very strong, and too much importance should not be placed on them. Other transits may last for days, or even weeks, and these are the ones you should pay most attention to, as their effects can be dramatic and have a lasting impact. The general rule of thumb regarding transits is: "The longer they last, the more important they are."

    What should I know about ordering a Compatibility Reading?
    A compatibility reading is a comparison of the charts of 2 people. Our Romantic Compatibility, Sexual Soul Mates and Relationship Potential Readings are examples. When ordering a compatibility reading, you will need to enter 2 profiles. If you only know birth time information for 1 person, you should order a no birth time reading.
