Altering weightings of the chart point will affect the way in which scores are calculated in the balance of the modes and elements in basic Chart Analysis report of Solar Fire. It also affects the way in which Solar Fire determines the balance of Modes, Elements and Rays in the Interpretation reports.
When Solar Fire is first installed, the following weightings are in effect...
•Multiplier 3 - Sun, Moon, Ascendant, MC
•Multiplier 2 - Mercury, Venus, Mars
•Multiplier 1 - Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto
•Multiplier 0 - All other chart points
This means that the Sun and the Moon count three times more than Jupiter or Saturn in assessing which element is strongest, for example. Asteroids, which have a weighting of zero, are ignored in this assessment.
