Click on the thumbnail to pop-up a full size screen shot sample of the particular tool.

Wheel Size
Single Wheel Single Standard House Wheel

A Single Wheel is used to display a single chart. It can be in any of the four available wheel styles.

Pop-up onscreen interpretations are helpful to both novice and professional astrologers. You can turn this option off when you don't need it.

You can choose from four chart sytles: House, Unequal, European, or Aries.

BiWheel BiWheel Standard House Wheel

The Bi-Wheel works well to show transits, progressions, or directions around a natal chart. You may also use a bi-wheel to display two natal charts and use the swap button to see how one person's houses fall into another person's chart. Then flip back and forth having each chart be the inner wheel.

Win*Star Express lets you do instant transits, progression or returns. Synastry charts are a snap too!

TriWheel TriWheel Standard House Wheel

This is the basic
three-ring
comparison chart. Houses are set by innermost chart. Good for three-person synastry. Use inner ring for natal, outer ring for transits, middle ring for progressions, solar return, lunar return, etc.

Win*Star Express lets you choose from four popular chart sytles: House, Unequal, European and Aries.

QuadWheel QuadWheel Standard House Wheel

This is a four-ring comparison chart. Houses are set by innermost chart. Good for four-chart comparison.

Win*Star's Express chart management lets you move a selected chart to any position on a wheel.

Wheel Style
Standard House Wheel Standard House Wheel

This wheel is divided into 12 equal house sections. This is an idealized wheel since carefully calculated house divisions are not exactly 30 degrees wide, but instead depend upon the time of year, the time of day, and the longitude and latitude of the location of the chart. Aspects are not shown in the center of the equal houses wheel since they would be distorted.

Unequal House Wheel Unequal House Wheel

This house-cusp wheel has unequal houses and shows the true size of the houses of the chart; you can see each house's proportionate part of the whole wheel. The Unequal Wheel is used for aspects to each of the planets and to show all the like aspects.

Center aspect lines can be turned on and off.


European Wheel European Wheel

This is a Zodiac wheel. The middle of the rising sign is at the left. Aspect lines can be drawn in the center, house cusps are indicated on the outside. In this very colorful wheel, the houses are drawn through the signs. This wheel is suitable for Planet and aspect pattern viewing.

Aries Wheel Aries Wheel

This is an open chart form with Aries on the ascendant. It is suitable for heliocentric or sun-centered charts or any chart that is place independent. No house cusps and the circle of signs go from Aries to Pisces. It also works for people who have no idea of the time they were born.

Tools
Center Aspects Center Aspects

This feature toggles (on/off) the aspect lines in the center of the wheel.

Swap Chart Swap Chart

When working with biwheels, Tri-Wheels, and Quad-Wheels, this feature exchanges the inner and second wheel positions - i.e., the chart displayed in the inner portion of the wheel is moved to the next (outer) ring and the one displayed in the second ring (the outer ring in a biwheel) moves to the center of the chart.

Heliocentric Chart Heliocentric Chart

The heliocentric chart shows the Zodiac from the vantage point of the Sun. Notice that the Earth is present in this view although the Moon is not. The Aries wheel style is used with a heliocentric chart.

Astro*Clock Astro*Clock

The Astro*Clock displays the current date and time (from the computer date and time). This is a great way to see the positions of the planets right now as they move in their orbits through the zodiac. These positions change as frequently as you select (from every second to every 15 minutes), as the planets continue in their orbits.

Aspect Window Aspect Window

This exclusive feature lets you view relationships within your charts in a wonderfully graphic manner. You can examine the aspects made by the planets and sort them in five different ways. Click an individual aspect in the list to see it diagrammed on the Natal chart.

Date Control Window Date Control Window

The Date Control is useful for looking at planet positions on secondary chart types (transit, progression, solar arc, etc). You may want to see the planet positions for a particular date and time.




Time*Scan Window Time*Scan Window

Time Scan lets you view periods up to twenty-one years in three-day increments. You can view them as a scan or list. Both methods offer detailed pop-up interpretations.



Chart Data Window Chart Data Window

The Chart Data area shows you astrological information about the current chart. This includes planet positions and times, elemental balances, lunar information, aspects sorted by various criteria, rulerships, midpoint information, chart patterns and their meanings, Lily Strengths, and Jones chart types.

Selecting Planets Selecting Planets

The ability to selectively turn on and off planets and aspects can be useful as a teaching tool, or to focus the chart around a particular theme.
