iOS Charts – Progressed, Relocated, Return

The fastest way to create Progressed, Relocated and Solar Return charts is to make a copy of the birth chart and then edit the copy and turn on settings for whichever type you want. Doing this allows the display of both the Natal chart and whichever chart type you add in a Bi-Wheel. Select a Natal Chart. Use the Copy button to duplicate the Chart. Edit one of the copies. Scroll down to the section for the type you want. Turn the switch ON. Enter all the additional required information.

iOS Sky Now Settings

By default Sky Now and Houses Now use a continuously updating device location. However, they can be locked to a specific location so that they do not change when the device moves. For example, you might want to lock it to the location of the New York Stock Exchange. Place – The location used when Location Services are not available, or when Always Use This Location setting is set to ON. Always Use This Location: ON – locks the location used by Sky Now and Houses Now to the location set on the Place row. OFF – the location used by Sky Now and Houses Now updates when the device location changes. Location movement sensitivity is set to not update unless the device moves more than 8000 meters (approximately 5 miles). The rest of the Sky Now settings work the same as those for Charts. See the section above for Chart Settings. Note: iPhemeris does not collect or use location data for any other reason and no location data is sent to iPhemeris servers.

Progression Types & Settings Explained

iPhemeris currently offers the most common Progression styles. Changing the default Progression settings does not change the progression style used on progressed charts previously created and already in your chart database. Progression settings for individual charts are stored with each chart in the database allowing you to experiment with different progression styles. To change the progression settings of an existing chart, edit the chart individually using the chart editor. TERMS EXPLAINED (Sort of) We say “sort of” because there is a lot of loose usage and conflation relative to Progression terminology. iPhemeris uses them in the following manner: Progression – Moves the planets, bodies and angles in time based on the actual planetary motion for the elapsed time between the date/time of the Natal or Radix chart, and the date/time of the Progressed chart. Progressions typically produce positions as they are found in an Ephemeris. Progressions techniques produce charts where the angular relationships are constantly changing over time just as they do in the sky. Direction – Moves all planets and points by the same amount or arc, either degrees longitude or Right Ascension (RA), depending per the selected type. Direction is typically based on the Sun’s arc in Longitude […]

Part of Fortune Settings

Choose the algorithm used to calculate Part of Fortune. Most ancient authorities advocated using a different algorithm for day and night births. However, due to an early mis-translation of Ptolemy’s writings, a common misconception has crept into modern Astrology causing people to think he advocated using the same formula for both. Recent translations make it clear that he did not. iPhemeris offers both. CALCULATION Day births – when the sun is above the ascendant/descendant line. Night births – when the Sun is below the ascendant/descendant line. Different for Day and Night (the default): Day Birth:  Ascendant + Moon – Sun. Night Birth:  Ascendant + Sun – Moon. The Same for Day and Night: Ascendant + Moon – Sun.

Chart defaults set preferences for how the Chart Wheel looks and also, to pre-populate some fields when creating new Charts. House System – The default house system used on new charts. Place – The default location set on new charts. Use 24 Hour Time – Forces iPhemeris to always use 24 hour military style time regardless of locality settings (zero is midnight, 00:05 is 5 minutes after midnight). Show Aspects On Wheel – Toggle ON/OFF display of aspect lines in the center of the wheel. This has no effect on reports. Show House Number – Toggle ON/OFF display of house numbers on the wheel. Label House Cusps: OFF – Astrological Signs are displayed in the center of each zodiacal sign and degree marks are shown around the wheel. This gives the wheel a more European style. ON – The point where the house cusp intercepts the sign is labeled in the outer wheel. This can mean that in some cases not every sign is labeled in the outer wheel (but every house cusp is). Always Show Mc & Asc – Toggle ON/OFF display of Asc, Mc, Ic when those points are the same as one of the house cusps in the House system being used. Show Minutes […]
