Interactive & Dynamic Displays of Chart Wheels

In Kepler you can adjust the time of a chart without needing to return to the data entry screen. In Sirius the concept of interactively adjusting the time of a chart has developed into a set of features that are very sophisticated, elegant, and powerful.

• Selecting the Time Adjust feature brings up a narrow window, like a panel, on the right side of the screen, where you can interactively adjust the chart forward or backward in time, move the chart forward or backward to the next time an aspect occurs or a planet or house cusp ingresses into a sign or reaches a particular zodiac position. A scrolling list of aspects to a point (the Asc or MC is typically selected by most astrologers) and conjunctions to fixed stars is displayed, a fabulous feature for electional purposes.
• You can even have Sirius make a list of potential charts that you are considering, and you can easily add a chart to your list of chart entries so that you automatically have this chart to study without disturbing your current chart entry.
• The Time Adjust feature in Sirius is a tool that you can use for many purposes, such as, for example, selecting a time for an event. With a few mouse clicks you can move the chart forward to when the Jupiter trine MC aspect you see is exact, see the aspects to the Asc and MC and any conjunctions they may make to fixed stars.
• Push the chart backwards or forwards by a few minutes with a few mouse clicks.
• You could also select the time a house cusp or planet ingresses into another sign.
• You can temporarily save a time that looks interesting and have it listed for you in your list of times that you are considering.

After you decide on a chart you can have it added to the list of chart entries (your Calculated Charts) and exit the Time Adjust feature and be able to further study the chart. This is a powerful tool for working with charts that is going to become part of the "took kit" that many astrologers use.
