Cast a chart

Start with the sky view, then save only when the chart needs to persist.
  • Open the live workspace before creating an account record.
  • Create or import a saved chart when you need durable storage.
  • Keep source-backed object context nearby while inspecting placements.

Generate a report

Choose the launch report family from chart context and return to history after generation.
  • Start Asteroid Report from saved or inline chart context.
  • Start Doctrine Report when you need evidence and rule context.
  • Start Timing Report for annual, monthly, and lifecycle timing.
  • Recover saved report artifacts from your report history.

Use saved charts and people

Keep reusable subjects, private charts, and client-style records connected.
  • Open your saved chart library for search, filters, and chart records.
  • Manage people records before attaching repeat chart work.
  • Import existing chart libraries from the import guide.

Run live sky and timing

Use live and timing surfaces when the work is exploratory or date-driven.
  • Open Live Sky for immediate chart inspection.
  • Open Timing for technique entry points and timing reports.
  • Scan transits from the Labs transit surface when available.

Read source-backed reference

Move from product labels into objects, doctrines, authors, source texts, and methods.
  • Browse the reference index for the full library map.
  • Open doctrines when a report names a reviewed rule family.
  • Check how source texts, paraphrases, and citation trails are handled.
  • Use the FAQ for common reference and beta workflow questions.

Manage account, billing, and emails

Use account surfaces for access, billing recovery, preferences, and support.
  • Open settings for account, billing, credits, email, and privacy controls.
  • Review plans before changing report allowance or Supporter access.
  • Contact support for billing, refunds, report recovery, corrections, or privacy requests.

Labs and launch-ready product pages

Labs is Supporter-only beta access. Core reports are separate: Asteroid Report, Doctrine Report, and Timing Report use report allowance or pay-to-generate checkout.

Public Chart Library and report examples

Public charts and publication-approved public reports are archival reference material. Browsing and reading them is free; new generation uses the accepted report-generation policy.

Asteroid Report

Asteroid Report focuses on named asteroid placements and chart context. Its product page explains the report family, while public examples appear only when publication-approved Asteroid Report records exist in the Public Chart Library.
Product pagePublic examples

Doctrine Report

Doctrine Report is the doctrine and evidence report family. Public examples are real publication-approved dossiers from public charts, not fabricated samples.
Product pagePublic examples

Timing Report

Timing Report is the timing report family for annual, monthly, lifecycle, and traditional timing context. Public examples appear only after reviewed Timing Report records are published from the public chart database.

Important vocabulary and terms

These terms are used consistently across Astrotechne chart, report, account, and reference surfaces.

Live chart

A chart workspace for casting and inspecting a chart immediately, before deciding whether to save it.

Saved chart

A private chart record in an account workspace that can be reused for people records, reports, timing work, and comparison flows.

Report

A generated or saved artifact that uses chart context, timing technique, or product-specific report settings.

Public Chart Library

The public archive for reviewed chart examples, public report views, source status, provenance, categories, tags, and collections.

Public report

A publication-approved report view attached to a public chart. Reading it is free; generating a new report uses the accepted report-generation policy.

Doctrine visibility

The public note that explains which doctrine or technique context is visible for a public chart or public report, and what remains unavailable or outside the publication boundary.

Source status

A public status that shows whether a chart record has cleared the source, licensing, and publication checks needed for Public Chart Library browsing.

Included monthly report

A Core or Supporter plan allowance that refreshes each billing month and expires if unused before the next refresh.

Pay-to-generate report

A one-time checkout for a specific report after included or introductory reports are used; it does not create a reusable balance.

Labs

Supporter-only beta access for experimental non-report surfaces such as elections, deep search, transits, events, Explore modes, mundane, and future work areas.

Object

A chart factor such as a planet, luminary, node, angle, lot, asteroid, fixed star, or other calculated point represented in Astrotechne.

Doctrine

A technique, condition, rule family, or interpretive topic that can group source-cited astrological claims.

Source text

A book, translation, article, or public-domain text used as citation context for reviewed reference records.

Bibliography note

A public note that identifies the source text used for reviewed reference context without exposing raw research catalog details.

Published interpretation

A reviewed public interpretation note that can appear on reference pages.

Calculation context

The chart, time, place, zodiac, house system, object set, and technique settings needed to understand how an astrological condition was produced.

Doctrine Report

Short explainers for Doctrine Report terms used in rule evidence, source notes, and interpretation rows.

Doctrine

A doctrine is the technique or rule family being checked, such as sect, dignity, or a timing condition. A doctrine group keeps related rules together so the dossier can show which body of practice is being used.

Rule evidence

A rule is a specific source-backed condition the dossier can test against the chart. Rule evidence is the row that records the rule, the chart facts that triggered it, and the cited source basis.

Predicate

A predicate is a machine-checkable chart condition, such as a planet being above the horizon. Predicates are kept separate from prose so a reader can distinguish calculated facts from interpretation.

Citation

A citation identifies the source record used for a doctrine or rule. The dossier links citations to the reference source catalog instead of embedding raw research notes.

Locator

A locator is the page, book, chapter, section, table, or similar pointer inside a cited source. It tells the reader where the claim is grounded without reproducing the source text.

Source note

A source note is the public-facing source treatment for a citation and locator. It may be a reviewed paraphrase, a short fair-use excerpt, a public-domain excerpt, or citation-only when the publication boundary requires it.

Applicability

Applicability says whether a rule applies, does not apply, or is unavailable for the current chart and doctrine settings. The reason text explains the status when the row needs qualification.

Factor

A factor is the chart object, condition, topic, or report-derived item being evaluated. It is the report-facing label for the thing the rule is about.

Interpretation row

An interpretation row is short reader-facing prose derived from one or more evidence rows. It should stay tied to cited evidence rather than becoming a standalone prediction.

Timing Report

Short explainers for Timing Report techniques, levels, returns, and lifecycle markers.

Annual profections

Annual profections move one house per year from the natal rising sign. The profected house and its ruler identify the lord of the year used in the Atlas row.

Monthly profections

Monthly profections divide each profected year into twelve smaller house-and-ruler steps. The Atlas shows them as a compact month strip instead of twelve full rows.

Solar year ruler

A solar year ruler is taken from the annual solar return context. The Atlas keeps it beside the profection ruler so the year can be read from both annual frames.

Zodiacal Releasing

Zodiacal Releasing is a sign-based timing technique shown in nested levels. L1 and L2 are the default overview; L3 and L4 are optional detail when available.

ZR peak periods

Peak periods are Zodiacal Releasing intervals marked by the source technique as especially active. The Atlas treats them as timing signals, not conclusions by themselves.

Loosing of the bond

Loosing of the bond is a Zodiacal Releasing transition where the sequence breaks its regular order. The Atlas marks it so the handoff is visible in context.

Firdaria

Firdaria divides life into planetary major and minor periods. The Atlas displays the active period rulers when the required calculation context is available.

Circumambulations

Circumambulations track directed movement through bounds or related divisions. The Atlas includes them only when an accepted engine payload supplies the interval data.

Secondary progressions

Secondary progressions map symbolic days after birth onto years of life. The Atlas highlights major progressed Moon and lunation-phase events when present.

Planetary returns

Planetary returns mark a planet coming back to its natal position, such as Jupiter or Saturn returns. The Atlas uses them as dated lifecycle markers.

Nodal returns

Nodal return and nodal activation markers show return, opposition, or square contacts to the natal nodal axis when the event data is available.

Outer planet lifecycle markers

Outer planet lifecycle markers include major Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto squares, oppositions, or returns. They are shown as broad timing context.

Source Methodologies

Astrotechne separates calculation facts, historical source context, and public interpretation copy so readers can see what is being cited, what is being paraphrased, and what has been reviewed for publication.
