You can search for things like two points in a given phase relationship, a point in aspect to any given zodiacal position, or a point at, above or below a given longitude, latitude, right ascension, declination, azimuth, altitude or speed. Available criteria range from a simple planet, asteroid, hypothetical body or house cusp in a given sign, on up to any of 25 multi-planet aspect patterns (t-squares, grand trines, yods, heles, rosettas, Thor’s Hammers, grand quintiles and more).

The Chart Search offers a truly huge array of criteria, and you can search for these either singly, or together in all kinds of “And/Or/Not” combinations.
