SOLAR FIRE STANDARD EDITION + ACS ATLAS
Calculate your natal charts, plus transits, progressions, solar returns, synastry grids, composite charts and more....
All of the basic tools at your fingertips.
Ideal for beginners and students or for those astrologers who would prefer the basic essentials in their astrology software. Solar Fire (Standard Edition) is a truly hassle-free calculation program for Windows, and easy on the pocket.
The Standard Edition features easy data entry and big, bold charts that are as readable on the screen as they are in printouts. And that is only the beginning of the magic you can create.
Capabilities include natal, progressed, directed, solar return, lunar return, composite and harmonic charts, with flexible selection of aspect sets, chart point sets, and database files for chart and place detail storage. It also includes flexible transits and progressions reporting over any specified time period, plus novel options for sorting output for maximised readability.
Chart viewing includes an aspectarian inside the chart wheel (or as a separate tabulation, if preferred), plus biwheels, triwheels or even quadriwheels for displaying combinations of two or more charts, and synastry grids. Chart points may be viewed in color, as may the zodiac sign glyphs, if desired. There is also a reverse video option to view charts on a black background instead of white.
Reports include standard chart analysis details, lunar phasing, modalities and elements, plus additional reports of aspects, rulerships and dispositorships, both traditionally and esoterically.
Chart Points include all planets, lunar nodes (true or mean), seven asteroids, including Chiron, Vesta, Pallas, Ceres and Juno, the Ascendant, Midheaven, Vertex, East Point and Part of Fortune. The esoterically important planet Vulcan is also included.
Selectable aspects are any from the 1st to the 12th harmonic inclusive, with graphical glyphs and colors for each one.
