The anisotropic Kepler problem has a group of symmetries with three generators; they are symmetries respect to zero velocity curve and the two axes of motion’s plane. For a fixed negative energy level it has four homothetic orbits. We describe the symmetric periodic orbits near these homothetic orbits. Full details and proofs will appear elsewhere (Casasayas-Llibre).
