A simple credit of “www.freestarcharts.com” is all that’s required as attribution. You can also create and distribute derived works if they follow the same license. https://freestarcharts.com/contact
- The author distributes the charts in PDF format, and I converted to SVG for use on this site. I recommend downloading the original PDF for printing.
