Hellenistic and Medieval Astro Report
I'm sure that many of you are not completely familiar with some of the technical terms I use which are mostly based upon Hellenistic era techniques. There is a lot more to understanding your birth chart than reading about planetary positions in signs, houses and transits. The ancients had a very elaborate philosophical system for interpreting birth charts based upon ideas of planetary motion, sect, dignities and various time lord systems that are not commonly in use in modern software. If you've ever wondered what any of the astrologers (circa 500 BCE - 600 CE such as Vettius Valens, Ptolemy, Dorotheus of Sidon, etc.) would have said about your chart, this sample report will give you an idea. That is the reason why I wrote the program Delphic Oracle; however most of you visiting this site are not in a position to buy Delphic Oracle so that you can know what this site is saying about your birth chart. Don't worry: you can still get the data from Delphic Oracle that you need so you can see for yourself what I have explained in these delineations. So I have created a report that has all of this information. All you need to do is supply accurate birth information (time of day to the minute if possible) and I will email Acrobat and Rich Text format files containing the following:

Delphic Oracle is the only program capable of calculating all of these. There is a glossary online to help you as well, but this report is far more in depth, giving you the data you need to understand your natal chart from a Hellenistic and medieval perspective.. The Preliminary Natal Analysis and Universal Hermetics report especially is unique to Robert Schmidt (based upon the Myth of Er in Plato's Republic) and he has given me permission to use it in Delphic Oracle (which is why it is not available in any other software).
