What a robust community! We include links to:


Compatible Software

The following astrology software is compatible with AstroDatabank, to varying degrees. For each product, we have noted its compatibility using the following legend.

Legend:

  • C = "Chart button" compatibility
    When you press the Chart button in AstroDatabank, it automatically displays the person's chart in the chosen chart program. We did not reinvent the wheel. You can see the chart using your favorite wheel program with only one keystroke.
  • W = Working on Chart button compatibility
    The program developer is working with us to make the program compatible with AstroDatabank's Chart button feature. If your chart program vendor does not provide Chart button compatibility, please send email to Support@AstroDatabank.com and we'll send it on. It is our intention to support as many vendors as possible.
  • I/E = Import/export capability
    Many times we can exchange data with programs via an import or export procedure, even though the Chart button is not supported.
  • E = We export to, but don't import from their format

If you own software that is not on this list, you still may be able to export data from AstroDatabank to your program if it can import from any of the programs below or from ASCII. For example, to import AstroDatabank data into CCRS, you could export to Nova format, and import that file into CCRS.

This site is the ultimate prophylactic against wholly thinking in astrological research.

We highly recommend their third book "The Key to Success in Love and Money." Those of you who may have been turned off by the hyperbole in their first book "Astrology Really Works," should be advised that there is a great deal of impressive research behind this work and that the hyperbole has been toned down. Go to their web site for a preview.
