Chapter 1. Introduction

Skylendar is a portable and modern design astrology program for Linux and Windows, with drag'n'drop, multi-windowing, animation, printing and SQL database access capabilities.

Skylendar has been built upon the Swiss Ephemeris library (sweph 2), which uses precomputed ephemeris files. This version already provides a set of those ones for the contemporaneous epoch, but additional files can be downloaded via the Skydmin utility.

By now, Skylendar provides the following charts:

  • Standard Wheel

  • Standart Text List Chart

  • Aspects Scan

  • Objects List

  • Local Horizon

  • Aspects Array

  • Ephemeris

  • Astro-Graph

  • Squared Chart

  • Solar System

  • Tarots

  • Primary Directions

  • Gauquelins' Sectors

  • House Positions

  • Batch Chart

Although portable, it needs the PostgreSQL 9.3 RDBMS and onward.
