What it is:
The ACS Atlas is an enormous database of latitude, longitude and time zone change information for over 252,000 unique locations worldwide and is continuously updated by Astro Communications Services as political circumstances force changes in time change information. One of the leading causes of mistakes in birth chart setup is guessing inaccurately the time correction based upon time zone and daylight savings time info. In both Delphic Oracle and Timaeus, there is the capability to look up time zones, latitudes and longitudes based upon a time and place input through the ACS Atlas. If you calculate alot of birth charts, it is highly recommended that you obtain this database.
How to obtain a license:
Currenty ACS offers a license for $70.00 for those who have obtained licenses for either Timaeus or Delphic Oracle (which is a very substantial discount from the original $195.00 currently stated at the site), by filling out this form at Astro Communications Services. You should mention that you have a license for Timaeus or Delphic Oracle and are interested in the discount.
