I am looking for a competant Astrology software package and I am interested to know out of all the many computerised Astrology programs on the market, which is considered to be the best one for accuracy and detail and which one offers the best value for money.

Your help would be much appreciated

I, personally, use Astrology for Windows by Halloran. It's got most of the major cities of the world in its atlas, so that's always good, and it has a useful 'Here & Now' button for horary questions, just click the button (and then double-check whether it's DST or not) and BAM you've got the chart for that second. You didn't have to put in anything. A major advantage and time saver. There are really only two downsides. The first is that you can only save one chart, unless you pay for the software, so that downside can be easily resolved. It's just I'm too cheap. The second, much more major negative is that the only bodies it keeps track of are Sol, Luna, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Venus, Pluto, Uranus, Neptune, Saturn, Chiron, Part of Fortune, and the North and South Node.

So, since it is that way (adding in the useless Chiron and not having the Quartet), I've also employed Astrolog. I have version 2.4, but I don't know if there is another version out there, I haven't looked. This program is much, much more complicated than Astrology for Windows. You have to input everything though, there are no short cuts. However, it can track all of those planets mentioned above, as well as the Quartet, Uranians, 20+ Fixed Stars, and even some other stuff I've never heard of. Also, if you know how to use it, you can get charts set up from other planets, as well as do harmonic charts. You can even do Vedic astrology with the sidereal system or even heliocentric astrology if that's just what you wanted to do.

So...uh...yeah...now I feel like an infomercial.

Buy now! :D

Or you could take the easy way out and go to astro.com, set up an account and go willy-nilly. You know, whichever.

There are new versions of AstroLog available . You might also wish to try AstroWin . many of the major companies producing astrology softwear have excellent programs for sale that will allow you to download and run for a 30 day period free . In my experience its not the softwear program itself as much as it is ' who " wrote the interpertative " side of the program . I have had good results with matrix programs and i personaly like the interpertation of Steven Forrest in particular . Best thing to do is just go on-line and shop around .

Mystic Board has excellent programs. I was really amazed. I am currently using Matrix Astrology Programs, however, I am not completely happy with the reports. I believe they could be much more detailed, but they are still one of the best on the market. Anything with Liz Greene and or Robert Hand are also great programs and reports.

Good Luck...and by the way...as far as Matrix...Wait until there are sales to buy. Watch the Discount Sales that are posted daily, for the best price.
