Using Calendars

This chapter describes how to generate, view and print a calendar containing transits, progressions and/or directions for any radix chart. Calendar data may also be exported to other calendaring programs, such as MS Outlook and others.

Before generating a calendar, it is necessary to have either cast or opened the chart(s) for which you wish to generate the calendar. If you have not yet done so, see Casting a Natal Chart for instructions on creating a new chart, or page Retrieving Charts From a File for instructions on opening an existing chart.

This will open the "Calendar" screen, and display calendar entries for the current chart and date.

>> To change the calendar duration

•Choose the Day, Week or Month items from the View menu

or...

•Click in the Day, Week or Month button on the top, left Toolbar.

♦"Day" - shows one calendar day only
