Declination
The Declination card shows the chart's declinations on one band and lists the parallels, contraparallels and out of bounds bodies under it, for the contacts the aspect list cannot show.
The Declination card
Each body sits on the band by its declination, north at the top and south at the bottom, with 0 across the middle. The shaded zones at either edge are marked OUT OF BOUNDS. Contacts, under the band, groups what is in orb as Parallel, Contraparallel and Out of bounds. A solar arc, profected or composite chart is read from its own degrees, so the band shows that chart's positions and not the birth planets.
Point at a body on the band, or at a contact in the list, and its height is ruled across the band. Parallels are drawn as ties and contraparallels as mirror curves. Click to keep it lit, and click anywhere else on the card to let it go.
Click the gear on the card for its two settings. Orb sets the orb for its contacts, 1° by default. Points adds the Angles (on by default) and the Lots (off by default) to the band.
