This program is still under development, but is has now undergone
extensive testing. The original routines were written between 10 and 15 years ago in
GW Basic and later Quick Basic. Fortunately these languages are quite similar to
VBScript, and it has been surprisingly easy to convert these ancient programs for use on
the Internet.
The program will calculate a horoscope for any date between 1900 and 2050
A.D., once you have selected the Date, Time and Place of your choice. If you
do not know the exact Latitude and Longitude, either look them up, or make an educated
guess. Approximate values will usually give adequate results, though the Ascendant,
Midheaven and Vertex will be somewhat inaccurate if the Latitude and Longitude are not
precise. Please use the 24 hour clock when entering times, rather than a.m. and p.m.
The positions for the angles and the Sun, Moon and inner planets are
usually accurate to within one minute of arc, while positions for the outer planets are
now usually accurate to within two or three minutes or so, (often better). Work
continues on improving further on this precision, while keeping the program down to a
reasonable size.
A version of this program giving even more accurate positions will be
available shortly, together with other features, such as an online interpretation of the
horoscope.

GMT
Please Note: the GMT column is necessary for times to be corrected
for the different time zones around the world. Please do not forget to take Daylight
Saving Time, Double Summer Time etc. into account when calculating GMT difference (in
hours). For example, in winter, New York Time is GMT -05:00 hours, therefore -5
should be selected in the last column. Also, ensure that the final box is set to
"East" for locations East of the Greenwich Meridian, (normally for times ahead
of GMT).
