Is there a way to manipulate the degrees of the orbs? I found a way to select the percentage, but this isn't working for me.

Also... (not astro.com-related)isn't there some system that gives meaning to each degree of the zodiac? What is it and where can I find it?

Hi future!!

Dunno about manipulating orbs, but the system of meaning for every zodiacal degree is Marc Edmund Jones "Sabian Symbols". Here's the best books:

Marc Edmund Jones - The Sabian Symbols in Astrology http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?z=y&EAN=9780943358406&itm=2

Blain Bovee - The Sabian Symbols and Astrological Analysis http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?z=y&EAN=9780738705309&itm=3

Dane Rudhyar - An Astrological Mandala http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?z=y&EAN=9780394719924&itm=4

Also Lynda Hill's -- http://www.sabiansymbols.com/

Dwads are a subdivision of the zodiac wheel into 2-1/2-degree slices -- http://koti.mbnet.fi/neptunia/dwads.htm

Re: Reduce/Increase orbs-YES!
    On the Extended chart Selection Page- on the left- below house systems -is a box that should read 100%
That is the Default. Type in the percentage desired [if using Asteroid inclusions I recommend 30-40%]
    Your done! now your charts are not so cluttered with lines like a Rand MacNally Map of downtown Calcutta.

Yes! I saw the percentage thing, but I want to put specific degrees. I generally don't include the asteroids... what percentage would you recommend? Gracias!

Zala... hi! and thanks for those links. Exactly what I was looking for.

Future_ : Actually those percentages equate to orb size. 20% will give you approximately 2 degrees, and so on.
