In 1997 the author of this book delivered lectures on astrological prediction for students of Kiev School of Astrology. A year later on this basis the first variant of "Complex Prediction Technique" was written in Russian and published in the Internet. The book was not only the manual for practicing astrologers, it was some kind of "a report on completed work", including statistical tables, their analysis, interpretation, etc.

After the book had been published, researches in this sphere were proceeded in several directions: statistics was collected and processed, corrections were made in the way of calculation, alternative forms of astrological objects interpretation were considered. All this made prediction work more effective, and prophecies became more exact and more concrete. In order to disseminate results of researches among astrological public, some articles with general name "Complex Prediction Technique. Additions and Remarks", have been periodically published (in Russian) in the Internet, where the most interesting and important materials were presented. As they have been accumulated, there was a necessity for the second edition of the book, which would include all collected information. This idea was realized in August, 1999. Statistics and results of the researches were submitted in the book in a minimal necessary quantity, and basic attention was given to the method of investigation and its practical application.

It should be noted, that utilization of the Complex prediction technique is requires a great number of calculations, and making them up manually takes a lot of time. Computer program Antares was elaborated with the objective of solving this problem. The program not only makes up all the calculations, but it also allows to use the technique without its detailed study: it is enough only to enter all necessary data, and then to find in the book the section with interpretation of the received results. However, it will be right, if the user learns to do all the calculations manually before he/she starts working with the computer. Because one should understand, WHAT is being calculated and WHY, how this or that figure appears and what it means. For this purpose it is desirable to recalculate the examples given in the book, then to analyze some cases from your own practical experience, and then to compare the results of calculations with the indications on the computer. Therefore, in those parts of the book, where we explain some new methods of prediction, calculation procedure with the tables and calculator is shown, though in practice, of course, it is more convenient to use the program.

So, if the user is ready to begin studying the technique, he/she will need:

1. Ephemeris with indication of ecliptic longitude and latitude of planets.
2. Tables of houses by Placidus.
3. Calculator.

If you have no ephemeris, or latitude of planets is not indicated there, it is possible to use the computer program, but only for definition of necessary coordinates, and then for checking results of manual calculations.

If your purpose is simply to use the technique for practical needs, without specifying the details, it is enough to get the book and the program only. Nevertheless, we hope, that scientific interest will take over, and the user will master the technique to the maximum extent.
