Quick start: build the first chart
This is the shortest safe path from an empty page to a readable chart.
Open a new chart
Use Build chart or New chart. The K1 card is the starting point.
Enter birth or event data
Fill name if needed, then date, time and place. Click Place to choose a city; after selection, verify time zone, latitude and longitude.
Press Ok
The wheel appears in the K1 chart area. If you edited date, time or place after calculation, press Ok again.
Use the time controls
The arrows near the wheel move the chart by the selected unit. Stop auto-scroll before changing another method or date.
K2, biwheel and timing methods
Use K2 when you need a second layer, comparison or a forecast method.
Choose the task
For comparison use a dual chart; for forecasting choose transits, returns, progressions, directions or another method from the method bank.
Fill K2 data
K2 has its own date, time and place. For transits, this is the moment you are checking. For returns and directions, keep the method options consistent.
Read the biwheel
The outer wheel and aspect lists show how the second layer contacts the base chart. Focus on exact aspects and relevant houses before reading minor details.
Adjust by day, month or year
Use the K2 time scrubber to move through time without rebuilding the whole page.
Saving charts and chart library
Saved charts reduce repeated data entry and protect source data.
Save after checking data
Click Save only after you confirm date, time, place and time zone.
Open chart library
Use Chart library or the folder button to return to saved charts.
Sign in for sync
If account sync is enabled for your plan, signing in keeps chart data available across devices.
Mark uncertain times
When birth time is approximate, put that note into the name or your working notes before interpreting timing.
AI Studio interpretation
AI Studio is useful after the chart context is prepared.
Build the chart first
AI Studio works best when K1 and, if needed, K2 are already calculated.
Choose a prompt
Use ready prompts such as a 30-day plan or aspects for a day, or write a manual question.
Ask narrowly
A specific question gives a better answer than “tell me everything”. Mention topic, date window and what decision you are considering.
Verify source data
AI interpretation depends on the chart you prepared. If the time zone or city is wrong, fix the chart first.
Settings, accuracy and professional habits
Small settings change the result, so keep the working contour clear.
Quick settings
Open Quick settings for house system, objects, aspects and orbs.
Time zone matters
DST and historical time zones are critical. If a city is not found, enter time zone, latitude and longitude manually.
Compare methods calmly
Do not mix conclusions from many methods at once. Start with one clear method, then add another layer.
Keep notes
For consultations, record source of birth time, selected house system and active method settings.
Troubleshooting
Most issues are solved by checking source data and recalculating.
Wheel did not update
Press Ok again and check that date and time are in the expected format.
Place is missing
Use manual time zone, latitude and longitude fields. Then calculate again.
Buttons feel slower on first visit
Let the first calculation finish. After the browser loads calculation files, repeated button clicks and mouse interactions are faster.
Account or payment question
Use the contacts page or write to support@ori24.app.
For users coming from desktop astrology software
The workflow is similar to a classic astrology program manual, but ORI24 is browser-first.
No installer
Open the site, choose language and work in the browser.
K1 / K2 instead of separate windows
K1 is the base chart; K2 is the second layer or method result.
Method bank instead of menus
Forecasting methods are selected from cards, tools and the method bank.
Cloud-friendly workflow
Saved charts and account tools are designed for work across devices.
