Just saw an ad for it and I am now investigating, but I figured there are many here who know all about it. Just curious.

1. Don't know much about it, but it looks interesting

This site has free classes and other courses.

This site has some software available, Mac & Windows

Will be checking it out some more.

[Fire Walk With Me]

2. Isn't it rumored to be the oldest form? And more than a bit different?

[I Have A Dream]

3. I don't know much at all about it, but I'd like to know more. nt

4. I was checing whether there are major differences in interpretations for

a while, but they changed the free material. I have not been there for a while, but they give you an overview, using your own chart.

Some fun free stuff was Ask Ganesha. I don't know if it is a windows/mac issue but the site does no longer properly display on my computer.

on edit: the free stuff is still there, they only moved them elsewhere. Under reports for example, planetary transits are free - it is generated for this moment, even has a clock within.

The vocabulary is something that needs to be learned, too.

In general, it is a fatalistic point of view.

As for predictions I found that it is often discouraging.
For example today my transits to my natal are below. I can really do without the negative ones, right now...

You have entered the notorious phase known as ‘Sadhe-Sati’ or Vrihat Kalyani which literally means seven and a half years sojourn of Saturn in the twelfth, first and second sign from the radical Moon. This, generally, is a period of trials and tribulations. Keep a low profile, stick to established norms of behavior, watch your speech, avoid short cuts and resign to the supreme will.
