“Dr Martin Gansten, historian of religion specializing in astrological/divinatory traditions, has studied various forms of traditional astrology for twenty plus years and published articles on Indian, Greek, Perso-Arabic and European astrology, as well as the highly acclaimed Primary Directions: Astrology’s Old Master Technique (2009).

Martin Gansten received his doctorate from Lund University, Sweden, where he has taught since 1998 and is now Reader (docent). Additionally he is a well-known Sanskrit scholar of Indic religions. His doctoral thesis, Patterns of Destiny: Hindu Nāḍī Astrology, combined these two fields of interest in a study of a South Indian form of astrological divination

Weel, I do know that personal interpretations are much better. What I am asking is if there is someone here who has experience with paid reports sites. I never tried them.

I have paid for Liz Greene's personal chart interpretation a transits and progressions forecast for six years and a vocational analysis chart. I found them very in depth and thorough and accurate. I got them from astrodiest.com. They are not cheap but I found them worth it.

I have also in the past ordered a synastry chart from a certain very well known astrologer here in the UK but subsequently found out the report was from a certain software that others used as well, so was not written by them! Which I felt was cheating and making money for nothing.

I too have bought from astro.com with good results. I paid for the psych horoscope and it was in depth and illuminating. I've also bought relationship horoscopes from there with very good results.

Wow, that's awful. However, I'm sure they all do it to a certain extent...

Stillone, yea, its awful, but the only ones that do it are the ones who dont write their own stuff, i believe liz greene and jonathan cainer, the only two ive ordered from and not seen duplicated anywhere, do their own stuff

Maybe you should not be afraid to tell his name, so other can avoid him ...


Does anyone has experience with reports from cafeastrology? They have maybe 20 types and they are cheap. I do not know what to think about that.

The cheap reports are just print outs from software. Similar to astro.com which uses the text from Rob Hand's book 'Planets In Transit' to generate an automatic computer print out. 'Planets in Transit' is an excellent basic cookbook which says the same thing to many people and is not individually worked :smile:

Reports that are individually worked out by an astrologer himself/herself take time as well as expertise - which is why they are 'expensive'.

But some people simply sell the automatic computer print out interpretation which is ok for some people but does not suit those who want something more personal

Its a she
:lol:

And no I cant name them as it would be singling them out amongst many that do this,besides you can get so many free reports online these days you dknt have to pay fir these types of computer generated general reports

if you want one from a good astrologer personally written all you have to do is email and ask first how its written

I rather want to buy such a program than pay for reports.
It's more helpful and you can learn from it
.
fullmoonlibra, then you may be interested to view an example of a site selling computer generated reports :smile:

these include three reports from Liz Greene - listed left hand margin as

(1) Psychological Analysis - Liz Greene
(2) Career and Vocation - Liz Greene
(3) Child's Horoscope - Liz Greene

that sites names the author of the reports And presumably endorsed by her,, its not the same as passing off a reading as your own or not acknowledging its a general software programme which many sites/astrologers do

Obviously the reports are endorsed by Liz Greene or she would have the right to sue! :smile:

Nevertheless, Liz Greene not only receives the credit, but also Liz Greene receives a large percentage of the selling price for what is basically a computer generated analysis
. Each chart is not individually created by Liz Greene but by a computer program of Liz Green's astrological analysis.

Similar situation on astro.com with Rob Hand's cookbook analysis of transits

- in fact Rob Hand said during an interview, that the book he wrote called "Planets In Transit" was specifically written by him as a computer program

As fullmoonlibra said, it's a good way of learning the basics

Yes but its not the same as an astrologer passing off a computer generated interpretation as THEIR OWN

what liz green is doing is NOT the same as other astrologers passing off computer generated reports as their own

thats clearly fraudulent

Of course Liz Greene must earn money for her own interpretations, Same goes for Rob Hand. :smile:

nevertheless Liz Greene herself did not originate those interpretations entirely herself as clearly she herself learned the basics on which those interpretations are built to begin with.

Computer printed readings
obviously are inspired by the advent of computers and it is unsurprising that they are being used for this purpose.

she didnt originate the interpretations by herself? What do you mean? of course she did, unless you are assigning copyright to everything to the first ever astrologer who ever lived LMAO

Certainly not, I have not done that, clearly there has been a misunderstanding. My point is that all astrologers learn astrology from somewhere.

For example, an entirely free source that costs absolutely nothing is available
at http://www.skyscript.co.uk/ and many astrologers simply read and learn information from there - in fact the information is freely provided for that purpose and there is nothing wrong with saying that astrologers who are learners must learn from sites such as these, as well as books and other resources. An astrologer cannot simply invent interpretations - because anyone could do that

fwiw IMO, it is self-evident that there are basic astrological principles that all astrologers must learn so that they can then interpret, write books, teach and so on, based on what they themselves learned from other people :smile:

the computerised reports that are online are only somewhat accurate as it takes a real live astrologer to merge and analyse a natal chart with feedback from the client along the way. So dont pay for anything where you dont have personal involvement and can tell the astrologer about your background and stage of life. You always need to pose personal pertinent questions and interact.

Sure get the free chart if you wish and some of it will ring true maybe but be prepared for emails forevermore about getting a fuller report and of course paying for it and then there is spam mail.

Best is to obtain reports from sincere, individual professional practitioners; but be willing to pay for it, remember you pretty much get what you pay for; avoid the canned (generated) reports except if you just want to have fun and are not much interested in accuracy.

You have data and information, yes, but then you have synthesis and the QUALITY of JUDGEMENT-these latter make all the difference!!
