Entering the Chart Name

Up to 30 characters of text may be entered to describe the chart. Typically this will be the name of the person for whom a birth chart is being cast (e.g. "John Smith"), but could also be a description of an event (e.g. "President's Inauguration"), or a horary question (e.g. “Where are my keys?”). You must enter at least 1 character in the Chart Name box.

Note: If the name you enter contains the string “transit” anywhere, then the event type is automatically set to “Event”. If the name you enter ends with a “?”, then the event type is automatically set to “Horary”. However, you can subsequently alter this automatic event type selection if you wish.

Note: For chart list indexing and when combined charts are being produced, the last item on the line is assumed to be a "last name" (except in the case of Event and Horary charts). Therefore, when entering chart names for a person’s natal chart, we recommend that names always be entered with the first name first, and the last name last.
