Epoch Charts
Epoch Chart is based on
"Trutine
of Hermes". In addition to
the calculation process outlined by Hermes Trismegistus, you can define
your own rules for
Epoch Charts.
Epoch
Chart is a derived
chart, so in order to calculate it you will need to cast the base chart
first.
To generate a new
Epoch
Chart, please follow these steps:
- Open a chart or create a new
chart.
- Expand the Traditions
menu and select the Epoch
Chart...' menu option. The Epoch
Chart form will appear.
- The Epoch Chart form
values default to the rules as outlined by Hermes Trismegistus:
- Planet is the Moon.
- Prenatal
Epoch search assumes ~9 months (270 days) period prior
to birth. So by default the search will start from 270 days before
the
birth date and will go backwards until the Epoch moment is found.
- ASC is the default point. Alternatively, DESC can be used.
- You can customize any of those rules by selecting different
planets, different pre-natal search periods and specifying different
house cusps to which planetary returns are calculated.
- Click OK.
Editions:
- The Epoch Charts are included in AstroApp Pro and AstroApp Financial Gold Editions.
