Re: Exact Antiscion Points You didn't unterstand my question, Graham. I know the mathematical answer. That is not what I meant. Sorry, silly me ! So I guess you mean how to interpret Asc square Moon vs Asc antiscion Moon. You could note that a square in longitude is usually considered a "hard", "tense" or...

Re: Exact Antiscion Points What is the difference between moon antiscion ASC and moon square ASC? Moon square Asc means the Moon is 90° (or 270°) from the Asc, measured along the ecliptic. Moon antiscion Asc means the Moon is the same arc distance from the solstice axis as the Asc, but as if mirrored on the other side of tha...

Re: On the Origins of the Alphabet (and its connection to the zodiac) Wow, this is heavy going! It's a pity that by bringing in everything from Neolithic cave inscriptions through Egypt, Mesopotamia, Persia to ancient China we rather end up with overkill. Interesting that the Taghit alphabet (mentioned in appendix, at end) from eponymous locality in Western Algeria is...

The Winter Solstice, Astrology : Sun, Saturn, Earth ? Some years back I found and saved a very interesting article on Skyscript entitled "The Winter Solstice, Astrology and the Relationship between the Sun, Saturn and the Earth". Unfortunately I didn't save the author's name (I remember it was a woman). It now seems to have disappeared, and I...

Re: Sun ruling Cancer ? @Lunlumo : thank you for this, sounds quite sensible. Do you know if Franz Frickler envisaged the idea of Sun ruling both by day, Moon by night? One thing I like about Alan White's Zorastrian idea is that it keeps a clear and neat mirror scheme of a half cycle of the zodiac "going down" aw...

Sun ruling Cancer ? Hello In Chris Brennan's Astrology Podcast episode 250, Intro to Hellenistic Astrology with Alan White, I was interested to find that White insisted that the Sun rules Cancer, and the Moon's co-rulership reflects smply an affinity.

Hello Martin I'm having trouble getting the basic annual profection chart, in Morinus or in Solar Fire. You recommend starting with just the straightforward annual, with all chart factors moved forward one full sign. But there's always a slight differnce of a at least a few minutes arc, and not the ...

Indian book on ayanamsa Hello Does anyone have an idea where I could maybe obtain a book published in India, probably in Tamil Nadu (maybe Tirukkovilur), by Swami Sadasiva Giri : "The correct value of ayanamsa" (preface by K.N.
