Searching the database by criteria

Select the chart that performs the astrological formula.

What it is and why it matters

Basic search applies one condition to many saved chart. It is useful for days of training examples and checking how many entries match your criteria.

When to use it

  • To find all chart with a certain position or link.
  • To form a sample for your own research.
Terms explained
Astroformula
A condition written in the app’s formula language. It can be checked on a chart or searched for in time, in a database or on a map.

Where to find it

Search “Search in Base”.

How to use it

  1. Select one or more bases or all bases.
  2. Enter the verified formula. For transits conditions check the current background date.
  3. If necessary, turn on “Only count” and press “Search”.
  4. See the number of matches and unsolved records. Click on the chart found to open it.

Settings and options

Select an option to learn how it works and when to use it. The label beside its name shows whether it affects calculations, chart appearance or data.

FormulaCalculation

The condition in the special language of Zorya Astro: for example Sun.Ari checks the Sun in Aries. & means “and”, Echo — “or”. This is not a field of ordinary question to AI.

What changes
In search only selects moments, chart or places where the condition is true. The syntax error has a line and position.
When to use it
Start with one simple condition; check it in "Check formula" and then combine several.
Example
Sun.Ari & Mar.0.Sat: Sun in Aries and Mars' conjunction with Saturn. The presence of conjunction is checked with orb of the relevant rules.

Check / Run on chart / TraceAction

“Check” checks if the condition is correctly written. “Execute on chart” calculates it on the open chart. Tracking breaks the answer down into parts.

What changes
A syntaxically correct formula can give a “No” — this is the absence of a condition in this chart, not an error. Without open chart performance is unavailable.
When to use it
For a complex criterion, read the value of each tracking part to a mass search.

Formulas / Save formula… / Open .crt file…Action

A reused condition library. Name helps recognize the formula, .crt file translates the text of the criterion.

What changes
Selecting a record inserts it into the field. Deleting deletes the library record; opening a file does not mean that the search will be automatically launched.
When to use it
Name by task and methodology. After downloading, compile the formula, context chart and forecast circuit.

Databases / All databasesData

A set of data that is checked by the criteria.

What changes
The selected bases are included in the search. Without choosing at least one search there is no place to perform.
When to use it
For research, separate the verified data from the training; the composition of the sample affects the outcome.

Count onlyAppearance

Count the performance criterion without a complete list of chart to open.

What changes
Enabled: sum of quantity; off: relevant records are available. Search does not change the chart itself.
When to use it
For statistical review of large sets; turn off to check individual coincidences.

Transit for the background dateCalculation

Time of moving points for formulas that compare natal chart with transits.

What changes
All charts are checked for the specified forecast date. Changing background data can change the result.
When to use it
Before mass check, turn the moment and mark of the moving circuit in the formula.
Link to this control
Calculate / Search / StopAction

Launches calculations for current fields; during long work shows progress and the ability to stop.

What changes
Stop interrupts the current task. After changing the fields, check if the result has already been updated or if a new start is needed.
When to use it
First check the period and filters. For too large task, reduce the range or number of points.
Link to this control
Could not evaluate / chart rowAction

Separately shows records for which it is not possible to reliably calculate the criteria.

What changes
The unresolved value is not counted as the ordinary “no”. Pressing the found chart opens it for verification.
When to use it
Check out the reasons for calculating the coincidence share; missing data may distort the sample.

The result

You get a list of corresponding charts or just their number.

Worked example

This is a teaching example; results for your chart may differ.

Situation
You are preparing classes about Sun in Aries.
What to do
Select your training database and run Sun.Ari.
How to read the result
The resulting list will help to pick examples; the number of coincidences in your database does not prove a general pattern.

For professional practice

The same formal criterion for multiple databases reduces manual selection and allows to separate coincidences from unsolved records.

What to check for a precise comparison

Control the quality and origin of the sample, duplicates and missing data. “Unresolved” should not be counted as “No”.

Keep in mind

An unsolved record means that the condition was not defined; this is different from the result of “No”.
