Swiss Ephemeris for Users

This area contains printable ephemeris files in Acrobat PDF format. This format allows to view and print ephemerides in excellent quality. Each ephemeris file covers one year and prints on six pages, with two months per page.

The ephemeris contains the regular planets, Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto. The ephemeris also contains the Lunar Nodes True Node and Mean Node, the minor planet Chiron and the mathematical point 'Lilith' or 'Dark Moon', technically known as the Lunar Apogee.

The ephemeris files may be downloaded and printed for private use only. Any redistribution of these files in electronic or printed format requires the permission by Astrodienst in writing.

To read, view and print these files, you need the free Adobe Acrobat Reader Version 3.0 or higher.

The links appearing as numbers contain the ephemeris for this year; the links 'A' contain a list of mundane aspects (aspects formed by the moving planets on the sky). For years marked with 'j' like 1500j the Ephemeris is in the Julian Calendar, otherwise it is in the Gregorian Calendar.
