transit the first and seventh cusps at 360*/day minus a planet s momentary velocity; to wit
planets in retrograde transit that much faster.
Also the maximum oscillation is on the local meridian from midheaven to antemidheaven.
The rotational cycle of these cusp-oscillations repeats once each sidereal day. Notably the local
Ascendant and Descendant cycle above and below the east point and seventh house cusp, al-
ternately over the course of each sidereal day, and is how  fliptypes for Arabic parts or Greek
lots are determined which also indicates magnitude, since the Ascendant s oscillation in-
creases with latitude above or below the equator but that s not important for now. We are do-
ing daily horoscopes, not event charts. This makes it much faster to look for changes in
horoscope scenarios for any given day by looking at the planets synodic motions, since the
meridian houses average 30 degrees of ecliptic arc per sidereal day. This is the daily average of
rulerships or global daily horoscope. This helps us to quickly identify dominant rulerships,
but is only a quick approximation. There s more to it.
The synodic motions and velocities of the planets are compared to their transits over the
course of one day. As one horoscopic window closes another is invariably opening. The Sun at
southing on the local meridian is the de facto measure of a day, but the progression of the
horoscope is essentially independent of the solar day, and is instead totally dependent on the
sidereal day, and the aforesaid synodic aspects of the planets. For daily horoscopes, it s much
easier simply to look at planetary synodic aspects, and adjudicate based on these alone. But in
order to reference planetary tran- sits to a specific location, this requires exactitude.
And in any case we must always refer to a calendar of one kind or another, whether it s
gregorian or julian date, jewish, or islamic, mayan or aztec, or whatever other calendars you
might prefer. Using the gregorian improvement to the old Roman calendar is the one most
people are familiar with, hence the date Dec 21, 2012. But even the best calendars need a ref-
erence meridian!
In this day and age it s the greenwich prime meridian that is our universal time-standard.
In ancient times it was the giza pyramid, yet in more remote antiquity who knows where the
prime meridian might have resided? Catastrophic crustal displacements can only leave one to
wonder. It s really just an arbitrary meridian but is our contemporaneous majority consensus
which makes it become recognized as a prime or universal meridian, our reference standard
by which the Earth is measured, hence the Earth s rotation and orbital motion is like- wise
referenced. The point being, that it s customary to reference the Sun at southing as the center
of day, no doubt since the style or gnomon that casts shadows on the sundial is oriented to-
ward the nearest pole of Earth s rotational axis  parallel to the Earth s axis. Weather permit-
ting, at twelve o clock noon the shadow extends momentarily straight off the end of the style

in opposition to the Sun. That s 12 PM LAT and is the gospel of ephemeris time. It s the
caelestial witness to the fact that it s twelve noon on that day, and at that geographical longi-
tude. With the DE406 ephemeris so refined and exacting, you can calculate the Sun at south-
ing for your local meridian, then test it to see if the southing Sun doesn t cast a perfectly
straight shadow due north off the gnomon of your sundial, that is assuming you have one. If
you don t, and you would like to experiment with this, you can download a very precise free-
ware program for making sundials off this link: http://web.fc-net.fr/frb/sundials/gb/defaut.htm.
Or you could just set a plumbbob above a straightedge pointing due north, but that takes all
the fun out of it. You will find the JPL-DE406 ephemeris is accurate.
In conclusion, there are two basic methods for making the daily horoscope. Using plane-
tary aspects alone is convenient but less accurate. The local method is far more accurate, but is
more tedious and time-consuming. For quarterly or yearly almanachs with meteorological and
astrological prognostications, you d probably use the greenwich meridian and coordinated
universal time for all calculations. You needn t fully chart the Sun at southing but at least iden-
tify what time it occurs for each day in question. After you ve charted and ad- judicated sev-
eral hundred horoscopes you ll become an expert in no time& just practice, practice, practice. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
