Astrology! Yes, we find ourselves reading the daily horoscopes, looking for the ones that give us not only the best information but the information we are looking for. We want a horoscope that gives us our daily or weekly information in terms that we can understand. Then theirs the wondering about who is pulling and interesting the information. Well, what if there was a way that you could do this on your own?
What Should Be in an Astrology App?
When you start to look for a suitable astrology application that is going to give you good information that you can use, there are a few things to look for. First and foremost, and there are apps out that do not do this, it should ask you upfront to enter your birth information. This is the only way you are going to get personalized information.
The app. should start by asking you for your name (First name is fine as this is just a label), your birth date and time, and your place of birth. The more of this information you have, the more personalized and accurate your horoscope and natal chart will be. If the app. doesn’t ask for this information, move on to the next.
Many want an app that shows your birth chart diagram. If you do not understand how to read it, this is not necessarily necessary. You do want to make sure the app gives you a full readout of your natal chart if this is your purpose for the app.
Other things that these apps can offer include a daily horoscope, moon, and sun, moon calendar, and zodiac signs calendar, both with horoscope readings. Also voids of course, sun movement (rise, set, astronomical/nautical twilight, zenith), Apogee and Perigee, and a moon compass.
A full daily horoscope of course (including moon days, houses, symbols, elements, predication, characteristics, health care, and moon mansions), a planting horoscope, moon day calendar, and eclipses. Many do come with natal charts, though more on the computer or website than on your phone. They can be difficult to read on the small screen of a phone.

Final Notes
With all of that being said, if I had to choose between those 5, I would probably go with Time Passages. Being the oldie that I am though, and stuck in my ways, for extensive information I continue to use products from Astrolabe and have for many years. Solarfire by Astrolabe has been on my computers since about 1992.
These are some great apps. depending on what you are looking for. I would use the free trials or use the free app and then make the choice on whether you want to pay or not. Like I said earlier, decide what you need to get from your app before you start looking, and then take advantage of the trials or free versions before making that decision. If you find you aren’t getting the info that you need, try another.
