I wonder about the terminology, though: why say Distributions/Circumambulations rather than (primary) direction? Distribution is Ben Dykes's translation of qisma/divisio, and circumambulation is Robert Schmidt's translation of peripatos; neither has been around very long compared to direction, which is getting on for a millennium now in the western world (and has been used in English for at least 400 years). I regularly get people asking me if I use distributions (or, somewhat less often, circumambulations), and have to explain to them that those are just primary directions by another name. This practice of assigning new 'brand names' to old techniques creates a lot of confusion.
Hello Martin, my programming knowledge for Primary Directions is currently limited - I managed to program just PD of ASC & MC. PD of planets are still on my to do list.
I implemented (on request) also "directions" of other planets using Ascensional Times - which isn't astronomically accurate - so I didn't want to call it "(Primary) Direction".
And I was confused as well, which name should I use for this technique - I was thinking, that Circumambulations are "more" related to using Ascensional Times.
Thanks for clarifying - I didn't know.

Oh, I see. Well, if you are not using the classical Ptolemaic style of directing, then I suppose it makes sense to call it something else ('direction by ascensional times' is perhaps a little unwieldy, though it would be the clearest). But you do direct the MC by right ascension rather than oblique? If so, it would seem to be a bit of a mix.
What I have often thought would be useful for traditional-style predictive work, but haven't yet seen any software do, is an animation displaying the natal chart with the terms, the current directed significators of choice, and the current transits.

Hello Petr,
can your (Astro-Seek's) astroclock be moved forward and backwards to
observe the development of constellations?

Hello Petr,
I already tried to send a message.
I love your custom chart generator, it's very useful.
Could you add the square chart option too, please?

Hello johannes susato
Current planets:
https://horoscopes.astro-seek.com/curre ... -positions
1) if you start "
Astro-Clocks" - it opens in the new window and this window is updated
automatically every few seconds to display the current planets and house cusps - so there is no such forward/backwards function
2) but you can use the "
Animate chart" feature and move forward/backwards by various increments (seconds, minutes, hours, days, months, years ...)
---
"Animate chart" works also in "modern" birth chart calculator:

(where you can switch to traditional graphics in Extended settings)

Hello margherita,
thank you.
Square (+diamond/indian) chart styles are still on my todo list (for the last few years) ... but I still wasn't able to implement them
???????♂???
I hope to finish it finally one day ????
