This is just a fun curious question I have. What is your favorite site for drawing charts? I just discovered Astro-Charts.com and I really like how they list out declinations. However, some of the aspects in my chart don't show up such as my Sun-Merc conjunction and my Saturn-Neptune square. ------------------
Scorpio Ascendant
Aquarius Sun in 4th
Gemini Moon in 8th

I guess astrotheme.com good for tables and transits and astro.com for other types of chartsAstro-Charts.com is nice for showing yods and kites and other things but I doubt the orbs IP: Logged |

My favourite is astro.com by far. It has so many useful functions. I love the asteroid list and the fact that it gives the option of using the Equal House system, an option that Astrotheme added much later. I also like the Pullen calculation which is much more detailed than the one in Astrotheme where you can only calculate your elements and even there I'm not sure it takes into account the houses.IP: Logged |

I only like Astro, honestly. I run an astrology group on Facebook and anytime someone posts a non Astro chart I have to take a second to get comfortable with it. People really seem to like using the cafeastrology chart (and it is nice that it doesn't attach birth data to the image), but I find it so hard to read. I'll probably check out Astro-charts in the hopes I can more easily integrate declination, tho IP: Logged |

Astro.com, for sure. I've never used any other, but looking at charts from other sites is enough to make me not want to use them (I agree with what's been said, they're hard to read).IP: Logged |

It seems that astro.com is the fan-favorite here. I do have to agree that it is definitely one of the best chart-generating sites I've ever used. My curious self just wants to try out all sorts of different astrology sites to see what I get. I still like Astro-charts.com for listing out declinations, which includes what parallels and contraparallels one has. It highlighted a Sun-Chiron parallel I have and a Moon-chiron contraparallel as well, not to mention a Mars-Pluto parallel that I had discovered previously. Thanks for all your responses  ------------------

I like the UI on astro-charts.com, more pleasant to look at, which for me is important. Also the fact that it shows chart patterns.But otherwise, the chart itself seems more readable on astro.com and the aspects are clearer if you look at the lines for example.
On astro-charts.com the charts itself is a bit too small and it's not easy to understand what is going on there by looking at it. One specific issue/ or difference, but I don't like it so I will call it an issue - on astro-charts.com is that I noticed that it shows other North Node for me than the one on astro.com.
As astro.com is showing the True node by default, I assume astro-charts.com might be showing the Mean node. Another one I sometimes use is Astrotheme, but mostly for looking up celebrities. When I started looking into astrology (one year ago) I used cafeastrology.com, they have a lot of interpretations about positions and aspects, but the chart layout is not so great. Also there is astrologyonline.eu where you can see yearly transit reports, and other stuff. So yeah, in conclusion, what I use mostly and like is astro.com. IP: Logged |

astro.com is fantastic!Cinnamon sky ... The way to tell the True Node from Mean Node is that True has a tiny letter "T" in the horseshoe shape... hard to see. Go to Additional Objects (where asteroid list is in the box). To the right you'll see Objects. Under Objects, you can CHOOSE between Mean OR True, and check box to include South Node too (aka 'Descending Node'). Whatever you checkmark, shows up on the chart. You'll know the Mean Nodes because they are the plain horshshoe... no little "T" in it. IP: Logged |

At astro.com.... to the right of Home ... You'll see Free Horoscopes. Hover your pointer there, and you'll see options on the left--
Daily Horoscope ...
and Celestial Events. You might enjoy those. Explore. You can draw up the Noon Transit wheel of the day, etc. Click on the different items, and it will draw up the chart for the maximum (exact time and houses on aspects) for those transits. IP: Logged |
