Samhain and Halloween Traditions and spells for witches

Samhain, (pronounced SOW-in, SAH-vin, or SAM-hayne) is the third and final Harvest. The dark winter half of the year commences on this Sabbat. It is generally celebrated on October 31st, but some traditions prefer November 1st. It is one of the two spirit-nights each year, the other being Beltane. Originally the "Feast of the Dead" was celebrated in Celtic countries by leaving food offerings on altars and doorsteps for the wandering dead.

The Order of the Illuminati: Its Origins, Its Methods and Its Influence on the World Events

The Order of the Illuminati is often at the center of debates about the impact of secret societies on human history. Is the Illuminati a myth or does it truly secretly rule the world? As the number of people asking that question has grown, facts about the Order have become diluted with misconceptions and disinformation, making objective research on the subject difficult.

Invocations for Magic Spells and Ancient Rituals

The Mysterious Connection Between Sirius and Human History

Since ancient times and across multiple civilizations, Sirius, the dog star, has been surrounded with a mysterious lore. Esoteric teachings of all ages have invariably attributed to Sirius a special status and the star’s importance in occult symbolism is an attestation of that fact. What makes Sirius so special? Is it simply due to the fact that it is the brightest star in the sky?

Medicinal Benefits of Whole Foods

For the first 5000 years of civilization, humans relied on foods and herbs for medicine. Only in the past 50 years have we forgotten our medicinal "roots" in favor of patent medicines. While pharmaceuticals have their value, we should not forget the well-documented, non-toxic and inexpensive healing properties of whole foods. The following list is but a sampling of the health benefits from whole foods.

Cat Magic a witches familiar

For thousands of years, cats have been regarded as mysterious creatures with supernatural powers. These beliefs certainly did not disappear during the European witch-craze. The witch trials started in the 13th century. People began to believe that witches had the ability to turn into an animal, usually a hare or a cat, in order to transport themselves to a sabbat (a midnight meeting) presided over by the Devil.

Magical Garden & Herbal Grimoire

A truly magical herb, this plants texture is like wool or cashmere, extremely soft and fuzzy. I just had to include a pic. Hope you can tell from the photo (scanned) just how textured it is.

Aries Sexuality

The Aries Woman approaches sex as she does everything else in life zestfully, impulsively, and with total commitment. She gives all she has and takes all she can get in return. She is open to anything but don't ask about tomorrow sexual exclusivity is not her bag. The challenge of the hunt excites her. Aries is an exceptionally passionate, sensual, and sexual woman. Romantic, erode, and vain, she needs monumental reassurance from a sexual partner. When she feels insecure, she is jealous and...

Squares and Oppositions Are Turbulent Aspects

There are only a few Turbulent Shapes. We already know about the T-square and the Grand Cross. Every Turbulent Shape is comprised of only aspects that are squares and oppositions. This should tell us something about squares and oppositions. Since the very early stages of the development of Babylonian astrology, astrologers have always divided the seven angles that form aspects into good or bad angles. Since that time, almost all astrologers have interpreted all squares and oppositions by using...

Grace Kelly Prince Rainier III of Monaco and Oleg Cassini

As our next example, we will discuss a love triangle that was formed by Grace Kelly, Prince Rainier III, and Oleg Cassini. As almost all of you probably know, the famous actress Grace Kelly married Prince Rainier III to become Princess of Monaco. But before the marriage, and actually just before she met the prince, she had been dating fashion designer Oleg Cassini. According to most accounts of Princess Grace's life, she had been dating Cassini for some time and was seen with him all over...

General Electric and Exxon

General Electric and Exxon are two of the most profitable corporations in the world. Exxon is the world's largest oil company, and in terms of the value of its stock, General Electric is the world's most valuable corporation. Both companies were founded about a hundred years ago, when Neptune and Pluto made a conjunction (Figures 5C and 5D). This conjunction is a very rare event the next Neptune-Pluto conjunction will not occur until the 24th century. There is a general rule in astrology The...

Enhancement Aspects Are the Most Powerful

Although there are seven possible angles that form planetary aspects, some angles are more important than others. The Babylonians knew right away that the conjunction and the trine were special. The trine and the conjunction are planetary aspects because they are formed when two planets are 0 or 120 degrees apart, respectively. But these two aspects were not like any of the other aspects. The Babylonians realized that the conjunction was the most powerful aspect. This made sense because even...

The Planets Can Be Feminine Masculine or Neutral

Astrologers have long believed that each of the 12 zodiac signs is either feminine or masculine. In much the same way, Magi Astrology believes that each planet is masculine or feminine, except that some can be neutral. This has a bearing when interpreting characteristics and personality, because when the Sun matches degrees with a planet, the masculine or feminine nature of the matched planet will influence the character of the person. Mars and Pluto are the most masculine planets, and Neptune...

Sexual Planets and Sexual Aspects

It is a simple fact some people are just more sexually oriented than others. There are those who can live without any sex for a long time and there are those who cannot stand to go without sex for just a few days. This can cause extreme incompatibility. Magi Astrology's rules of interpreting planetary aspects can forewarn us about such a problem. Quite often, in a love relationship, one person wants and needs much more sex than the other and this difference in sexual needs and desires can...

Exactly What Is Planetary Geometry

Planetary Geometry

Planetary Geometry refers to the shapes and patterns that are created when you draw lines connecting the positions of the planets in the sky. If you connect any two planets, you will get a single line if you connect any three planets, the outline will be a triangle. And if you connect any four planets, the outline will be a quadrangle, and so on. All of these shapes are types of Planetary Geometry. Below you can see some examples. Figure 2A Four examples of Planetary Geometry The use of...

What Is Magi Astrology

The legend of Magi Astrology began at dawn during the spring equinox of 1625. It was then that a small group of Shao Lin monks gathered at a monastery-fort on top of a mountain near the southern coast of China to form a secret society of astrologers, which has the Western name of the Magi Society. Since that time, most of the legendary astrologers of China have been Magi Astrologers. They have been best known for their remarkable ability to predict matters related to marriage, the birth of...

Planets As Benefic Or Malefic

Planets have long been classified as to whether their influence is benefic or malefic. This has often been simplistically rendered as good and bad, according to a moralistic concept of good and evil (often depending upon what religion one follows). Thereby it has given rise to a stereotyped, judgmental or moralistic thinking, as if life were nothing but a school of reward and punishment and that the stars had no higher purpose then to administer justice to deviant mortals. Still there is a...

The Romance Planets and Romance Aspects

There are also planets that help give birth to, fortify, and strengthen love and harmony between two persons. There are three such planets, and we call them ROMANCE PLANETS. Like the Sexual Planets, the Romance Planets are the ones you would expect from their symbolisms. Chiron, Venus, and Neptune are all Romance Planets. Chiron is the most important and most powerful, but the other two are not far behind-and all three play a crucial role in all emotional relationships. Like the Sexual Planets,...

Planet Centered Astrology

While traditional astrologers, both eastern and western, use a geocentric chart, research has been undertaken to consider charts centered on other objects within our solar system, notably the Sun and planets. The premise for such a relocation of the center is that the logos of each planet at a specific point in time can be described by looking at such a chart. From the perspective of Mercury and Venus, the Sun is a vast presence. These two planets have no moons of their own. Both planets can be...

Physical Weak Spots

Once the vitamin and mineral deficiencies have been determined, a medical astrologer hunts for physical weak spots in the body that is, possibilities of physical debility that are increased or modified depending upon hereditary, environment and dietary habits. The house and sign positions of Mars, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and sometimes Pluto are especially important in ascertaining potential weak areas of the body. And if one of these planets is retrograde, a medical astrologer should pay...

Bestial Signs

The bestial signs are the signs of the zodiac represented by animals. Those classified as bestial vary, but always include Aries the Ram, Taurus the Bull, Leo the Lion, and Capricorn the Goat. The three water signs are also symbolized by animals, but water sign animals are not four-footed beasts.

Sagittarius the Archer is often represented as a...

Synastry Chart Comparison

Synastry, or chart comparison, is the practice of superimposing two or more horoscopes and examining their interactions. Synastry is an especially popular technique for evaluating romantic relationships, but it can also be used for illuminating business partnerships, parent-child interactions, and so forth. The basic idea of chart comparison is very old. In Hindu astrology, for example, the practice of comparing charts to determine marital compatibility is quite ancient. In the Western...

The Longevity And The Hyleg

The Hyleg Arabic , Apheta Greek , Prorogator Latin , or Giver of Life, was a planet or point that was calculated as part of the process to evaluate both the life expectancy and periods when the native was at mortal risk. When this point was directed using what are now called primary directions to an Anareta or killing point there may be more than one , or vice versa, death occurs. In their book Greek Horoscopes, Otto Neugerbauer and Henry Bartlett Van Hoesen noted that early versions, such as...

Pallas Athene

2nd Asteroid Glyphs

The asteroids are small planet-like bodies that orbit the Sun in a belt that lies mostly between Mars and Jupiter. They first dawned on human consciousness in the early 1800s. The first four asteroids to be sighted were given the names of four of the great goddesses of classical antiquity Ceres (discovered in 1801), Pallas Athene (discovered in 1802), Juno (discovered in 1804), and Vesta (discovered in 1807). Many more asteroids were soon discovered, so that by the end of the nineteenth...

History of Astrology in America

Astrology came to America during the colonial era along with the entire body of occult teachings available in Europe in the seventeenth century. The first American astrologers, the Rosicrucians, under the leadership of Johannes Kelpius 1673-1708 , established an astrological library and conservatory on Wissahickon Creek in what is now the Germantown section of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Among other activities, they helped upgrade the almanac already being published by Daniel Leeds, and, in...

Sedgwick Philip

Philip Sedgwick, born November 8, 1950, 2 36 p.m. E.S.T., began his study of astrology in 1969 while serving in the U.S. Navy. Since that time astrology has become a main focus of his life. He has been consulting professionally since 1975, and established his career as a full-time astrologer in 1981. Sedgwick wrote a weekly column for the Science Fiction Channel online entitled Space Scopes from May 1998 to October 2001. He has also contributed regularly to www.StarIq.com as a writer of...

Heliocentric Astrology

Although traditional astrology is geocentric (Earth-centered), some astrologers have undoubtedly considered using a heliocentric (Sun-centered) system ever since the Copernican revolution. The argument against heliocentric astrology is that, since we are situated on Earth, we need to focus on Earth's relationship to the other celestial bodies a Sun-centered astrology would make sense only if we were born on the Sun. This argument was persuasive enough to prevent the emergence of a true...

Phobos and Deimos Moons of Mars

The planet Mars is circled by two small, irregularly shaped moons, Phobos and Deimos. Phobos, with dimensions of 17 x 14 x 13 miles, orbits Mars every 7.7 hours in a circular path that never carries it more than 3,720 miles away from its primary (the celestial body around which a satellite orbits). Deimos, which is 10 x 7 x 6 miles, orbits Mars every 30.3 hours, traveling approximately 12,470 miles above the surface. These distances represent the inner and outer extremes for bodies orbiting a...

Arabic Parts

Pars Futurorum

The Arabic Parts are arithmetically derived points on the ecliptic the path the Sun, from our terrestrial perspective, appears to travel during the course of a year that represent the synthesis of two or more astrological components e.g., planets, house cusps, or even other Arabic Parts . The longitudinal distance between them is measured and then projected from a meaningful point in the astrological chart, usually the ascendant. The degree, minute, and second of zodiacal longitude, this...

Stationary And Retrograde

Before we can understand what is meant by planetary position, we must know that the concepts stationary and retrograde mean. The term retrograde means apparent backward motion of certain planets when viewed from earth. At various times in our lives we have all traveled in trains that passed other trains. We have noticed when we pass a train which is going slower than the one we are on, the train we are passing seems to be moving backward. Actually, we know it is not. When our earth is moving...

Standouts Lack of Element Lack of Quality Lack of House Emphasis and Unaspected Planets

Vuoden Ajat Lapsille

What is a standout Actually, it can be many different things. It can be the lack of a particular quality or element, or a planet that is unaspected. It may be an obvious planetary configuration, like a stellium of planets or a T-Square. It could be anything in the horoscope that even the beginning student will zoom in on, and when the teacher asks, What made you look at this first the student will invariably answer, Because it stands out In this lesson we will be discussing these standouts. The...

Sagittarius Anger

When the Sagittarius Woman is angry, she channels her forceful energy into restlessness, irritability, sarcastic wit, and snide comments. She fears this important emotion in much the same way that she fears intimacy. She doesn't want the varied passions that accompany close contact with others. The Sagittarius Woman may stomp her foot occasionally, shout, and even cry when she is angry. However, such displays always embarrass her she doesn't want to appear weak or out of control. Her reaction...

The Lunar Nodes In Vedic Astrology

The lunar nodes in Vedic astrology are a much more complex and studied phenomenon than in Western astrology. Their meaning is usually quite different, though under certain conditions it can be similar to that in the western system. The lunar nodes, by themselves, are regarded as generally the most malefic forces in the chart. The north node, Rahu, is said to be like Saturn, the greater malefic the south node, Ketu, like Mars, the lesser malefic. Yet the nodes have a subtler, more psychic and...

Alexander The Great

Ptolemaic System

Alexander the Great was born at a particularly propitious moment - partly because his mother, Olympias, was advised by the astrologer Nektanebos to hold back until the precise moment when a great man would be born. Then he announced, Queen, you will now give birth to a ruler of the world, and as Alexander was born thunder and lightning welcomed him. Later, when he was 11, as Nektanebos was showing him the stars, it is said that the child pushed the astrologer down a pit, pointing out that there...

Solar And Cosmic Astrology

In summary, we could say that Tropical astrology may best be called Solar astrology. Its signs may be more accurately called solar houses, or equinoctial signs. Its zodiac measures the Earth-Sun relationship but has no direct correlation with the other fixed stars. As such, its concern is with psychology, the personality and character-types, the solar side of our life and character. Its signs show how the planets distribute the solar force, but not how they distribute the energies of the stars...

Solar Return Chart

Uranus In Libra

Uranus was in Libra from 1885 to 1891, and the planet was reborn into a new era when it entered Aries in 1928. The years when Uranus is in Libra (1968-1975) are very important for the world. The symbolic meaning of Libra is High winds and linestorms followed by calm. Always the wreckers must prepare the way for the builders. Libra rules law and justice. Legislation will change the status quo. The Piscean age leaders will be part of the past having no say in the future. Youth will be controlling...

Libra Woman S Disease

Muscles Quadratus lumborum and sacrolumbal. Arteries Suprarenal, renal and lumbar. Since Libra rules the kidneys, it's an important sign to consider in medical astrology. The elimination of poisonous waste material is essential to life. Without the kidney's filtering capacity to clean blood during a 24-hour period we would be dead in a relatively short time. Because of the kinds of food we consume today, the miles of tubules within each kidney can potentially become blocked with debris such as...

Uranus In The Twelve Signs

Uranus in Aries gives an original, independent nature, full of energy and ambition, ingenious, resourceful and capable of coping with difficulties, especially those of a mechanical or electrical nature. These people have a very impulsive, abrupt and brusque manner which often arouses resentment and opposition in others even though no offense may have been intended. They are seldom satisfied to remain in one place, but are fond of changes and rove about a great deal. Changes of place and...

Planetary Aspects

As we discussed earlier, the Babylonians began studying astrology primarily to help them accurately predict which days were going to be historic or significant. But after they began to study astrology, the Babylonians became much more ambitious. They wanted to be able to predict not just whether certain days were going to be historic, but also precisely and exactly why the day would be. For example, would a particular day be a day of peace or of war And what would be the destiny of a person...

Chiron Is The Planet That Points to Your Soulmate

Chiron is so new that it was discovered only in 1977, eight years after man first landed on the Moon. But just as the Babylonians were greatly handicapped because they were not aware of Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, traditional astrology has been equally lost without using Chiron. Astrologers have given the following symbol to represent Chiron By combining the use of Chiron with Planetary Geometry, we finally have the astrological answers to the mystery of why we love those we do, and whom we...

John F Kennedy Jr and Carolyn Bessette Kennedy

As the only son of JFK, John, Jr. had been America's most eligible bachelor. He did not get married until he was 36 years old, leaving a trail of broken hearts and tabloid speculations. When he finally did marry, it did not surprise anyone in the Magi Society, as he had been dating Carolyn Bessette for some time. There were rumors that they had split up, but the two of them have TWO Romantic Super Linkages. Breaking up is hard to do when two people have Romantic Super Linkages. When such...

Electional Astrology

Electional Astrology is the branch of astrology that deals with the selection of specific days to engage in any particular type of activity. Astrologers believe that there are good days and bad days to do anything. This belief is based on an idea that originated from the ancient Hebrew prophets. They believed that when a man and woman were married using a specific set of rituals, then the couple was reborn together in a new form, and the astrological chart of the wedding date becomes the chart...

Planetary Geometry

Have you ever looked up at the nighttime sky and tried to find any of the planets Have you ever in your mind drawn connecting lines between the positions of the planets and wondered if the lines and geometric figures thus created have any special meanings Did you ever wonder if the various angles that the planets make to each other have any influence on life on Earth If you have ever done any of those things, then you have already had an intuitive brush with Magi Astrology's principle of...

Combined Planetary Geometry Is the Astrological Key to Love

When each person is born, the planets create a unique natal Planetary Geometry. If there are certain types of symmetrical patterns in this geometry, the person has a greater-than-normal chance of becoming historically significant. In this regard, a person's Planetary Geometry gives us a sign of the likely boundaries of that person's destiny from the historical perspective. In addition, every person's Planetary Geometry also has an overriding influence on that person's relationships of all...

Using Plutos Energies for Healing

The holding in pattern has so much undesirable potential that it is no wonder Pluto and Scorpio have bad reputations, yet the essence of any planet can be used for either good or bad. We choose, consciously or unconsciously, how we will use it. The greater self-awareness we gain through astrology is accompanied by greater responsibility to make the best use of each planet and sign. Nowhere is this more true than with Pluto, a planet with tremendous potential for either destruction or...

The Protocols Of The Learned Elders Of Zion

The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion is a 25,000 word document, which contains 24 Protocols by a member of a secret group of Jews, known as the Elders of Zion. It purported to be an outline for the control of the world by the Jews, with the help of the Masons. The document has been used to prove that the Illuminati is an exclusively Jewish plan for world domination, and has put the Jewish race in a bad light.

Wandering Stars and Fixed Stars

Astrologers are often extremely irritated when they see newspaper columns headed Your Life in the Stars, or Your Star Sign. Modern natal astrology is so strongly associated with the planets of the solar system that any allusion to the stars has sadly become associated with careless journalism, if not charlatanism. But the stars - the so-called fixed stars, as distinct from the planets, or wandering stars as they were called because of their clear first to begin tc classify the effects of the...

The Sources Of Tibetan Astrology

The Nakshatras The Lunar Mansions of Vedic Astrology

As in tropical astrology, learning the basics of planets, houses, signs, and aspects is the foundation of learning natal chart analysis. But, to appreciate the depth and uniqueness of Vedic astrology, one must also encounter and explore the nakshatras. Naksha-tra literally means that which does not decay. The nakshatras reflect the primordial level of the zodiacal belt, which lies beneath the 12 basic signs. The concept of the lunar mansions extends across many cultures as a natural result of...

How To Give A Sagittarius Woman An Orgasim

For the Sagittarius Woman sex is a celebration, and she brings to each encounter the anticipation of a feast. She looks for a companion spirit in her sexual partner, a fellow traveler with whom to share the cornucopia. She seeks a kindred spirit, not lifelong commitment, and in a brief encounter fellow feeling means more to her than the illusion of love. Sagittarius is capable of keeping love and sex quite separate, and she is very comfortable with the one-night affair. At breakfast, she will...

The Pituitary

Master Gland of the Endocrine System Reprinted with permission of F.A. Davis Company, Taker's Cyclopedic Medical Dictionary, Edition 13, revised, 1977. Perched atop each of the kidneys, the adrenals actually consist of two separate glands the cortex tissue and the medulla. The cortex secretes hormones, such as cortisone, that deal with fluid and electrolyte balance, influence the carbohydrate metabolism and help determine the levels of sex hormones. The medulla helps with the release of...

Cancer Anger

The Cancer Woman is often called crabby, and for good reason. She tends to have a simmering temper that typically explodes in theatrical displays. She also cries a lot, and it is difficult to tell how often she dissolves into tears from joy, and how often from anger. She tends to hold a grudge and to avoid discussion and confrontation. I interviewed several Cancer women, and here are some typical responses 1. I love a great cry 2. When I get angry, I must do something. I have to punch or throw...

Doshas and Planets

Vedic astrology uses the seven classical planets visible to the naked eye the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. To these it adds the two lunar nodes, the north node or Dragon's head called Rahu, and the south node or Dragon's tail called Ketu. These points in the Moon's elliptical orbit at which eclipses occur are very important in the Vedic system. Some Vedic astrologers also use Uranus, Neptune and Pluto, but few afford them the importance of the other planets. The term for...

Taurus Sexuality

Taurus the Earth Goddess is a very sexual being. She may seem very placid and composed on the exterior, but underneath the rhythms of the earth beat strongly. Her sensual nature takes over in the bedroom. She makes an art of lovemaking. Scheherezade surely was a Taurus. Never undertake making love to a Taurus Woman unless a large block of time is available for her to express her repertoire. Just kissing her can bring some men to orgasm. Her touch, both gentle and tender, excites and caresses....

Virgo Anger

The Virgo Woman's greatest problem with anger is that she seldom recognizes it. Her other main problem is that she fears expressing it. But she is not alone. Anger, in general, is considered socially unacceptable, and for this reason most of us are taught to repress it. Violence and poor emotional functioning often result. So-called sex crimes, such as rape, are extreme examples of the explosion of pent-up violent anger. Rape has nothing to do with sex. It is an act of rage. Recent research...

Purification of Gem Stones

All gemstones are receptors and take on the influences around them, whatever these may be. They reflect and hold the strongest energy that they are exposed to. Gemstones of sensitive or mutable planets, like the Moon and Mercury, are more susceptible in this regard. All gems need, first of all, an initial purification to clear out such influences. This cleanses them of any impurities that may have at tended their production or their sale. Purification is more important if the gem was previously...

Libra Anger

We feel loving, greedy, lusty, jealous, sad, happy and we feel angry. The Libra Woman is a dove whose hawk side comes out unexpectedly under stress, usually in the form of pretended concern. She has an enormous problem with unacknowledged, repressed anger. She is first of all unlikely to recognize her anger. Second, she does not know how to express anger honestly and constructively. Lest she feel overwhelmed by the problem, she should rest assured that almost...

Jupiter Saturn

Not everyone can take synthetic nutrients and improve in health. The relationship between Jupiter and Saturn in a natal chart helps determine an individual's ability both to assimilate and absorb vitamins or minerals once they are ingested. Since Jupiter stands for expansion, enfoldment or envelopment of something and Saturn stands for walls, blockage, stoppage or sluggishness, if the two planets have a friendly relationship via a sextile or trine, then the proper assimilation will probably be...

Taurus Lady Breast

Because the Taurus Woman's nature is binary, she is constantly seeking to unite the two parts. Sex and love are no exception. She recognizes that there is a close relationship between the two, but her logic sometimes confuses her. It usually follows that if a man loves her, he wants to have sex with her. This does not necessarily mean that if a man wants to have sex with her, he loves her. Her need for love and affection is as strong as her need for sex. Without love she can feel as empty as a...

Taurus Girl Explosive Anger

This anger eventually overloads her circuits. She will explode in blind rage months or years after the events causing the original pain. The incident that triggers her explosion may be so minor that it has little relation to the scope of her anger. Women have to walk a delicate tightrope in expressing emotion. They are conditioned to deny negative feelings other than jealousy. The Taurus Woman knows her place and respects authority. These attitudes reinforce the denial of her deep, sensitive...

24 Pictures of Egyptian Zodiacs used for Dating in this Book

Fragmented Figure Drawing

Investigation of an Egyptian zodiac for the purpose of astronomical decoding requires the most careful analysis of its smallest details. Our study of Egyptian zodiacs shows that some of the details, which at the first glance may seem to be unimportant, in fact are crucial for the correct decoding of the zodiac's astronomical meaning. Therefore, the astronomical dating should be done based on the most accurate and detailed pictures of the zodiacs. The most valuable are the large and detailed...

Hemming In Of Planets

If the Moon is in Libra, with Saturn in Scorpio and Mars in Virgo, then it has malefic planets around it in both adjacent sides. In this instance it is said to be hemmed in by malefics. While this is not technically an aspect, it does have a strong affect like a major aspect. The Moon will be strongly under the influence of these two planets and weakened by their malefic nature. If the planets involved are Jupiter and Venus, then the Moon would be hemmed in between benefics, which would thereby...

How to Track Your Transits

Creating a list of chart placements in numerical order is a simple way to track transits. Sort the planets plus the Ascendant and Midheaven by degree number3, rather than by sign. Here is the list for Bruce Willis, whose chart is shown on the previous page, with birth information supplied by AstroDataBank4 Looking at such a list, you might notice that several natal planets fall within close numeric range of one another. In Willis's chart, for instance, there are six planets between 23 and 28 of...

Vitamins and Minerals

Math About Printable

The first step involves determining potential vitamin and mineral deficiencies. If a person is on a good, natural diet, chances are that there will be minimal or nonexistent deficiencies however, because most people live in cities, caught up in pressured lifestyles, they have diets containing nitrites, preprocessed and prepackaged foods that will create some deficiencies. To ascertain the potential vitamin and mineral deficiencies, a medical astrologer looks at each of the planets to see how...

Elements Of The Planets

From the three gunas in the sequence of cosmic evolution arise the five elements. From Sattva comes ether. From Rajas comes air and fire. From Tamas comes water and earth. However, elements in harmony, balance or in their right place tend towards Sattva. Those in conflict move towards Rajas and those disconnected fall towards Tamas. In this regard a chart with a lot of earth may not be Tamasic. It may manifest the harmonious use of the earth element or Sattvic earth qualities like devotion,...

Harmonic Charts Patterns Of Astrological Intricasy

In Vedic astrology a minimum of two charts are done, the basic birth chart (Rashi Chakra) and the harmonic ninth (Navamsha). Frequently six and often as many as sixteen such charts may be considered. These harmonic charts provide more detail and specificity in the delineation of planetary influences. Some Western astrologers have begun to use harmonic charts, based upon the Hindu model. Yet they calculate these harmonic charts in what is sometimes a different manner than the Vedic one. They...

Interpreting a Horary Chart

It is impossible in a book of this nature to do more than skim the surface of the technique of interpreting horary charts. It is an area of astrology in which a great deal of practise, experience, and expertise is necessary. Relatively few middle-of-the-road astrologers acquire this some, like Deborah Houlding in England and Lee Lehman in the US, have concentrated on the subject, and practise and teach it. Here, we can merely show how to begin to interpret a horary chart by giving an example....

How To Calculate The Vedic Chart

The calculation of the Vedic chart can be done according to the same method as the calculation of the Western Tropical chart, only the Ayanamsha is subtracted from all planetary and sign positions. Thus any typical Western chart can be turned into a Vedic chart through subtracting the Ayanamsha. For this reason, we will not go into how to calculate charts. This can be found in many common Western astrology books, which can be examined for reference. There is a special Indian way of calculating...

How Interaspects Are Formed and Interpreted

At the end of this chapter, we have provided you with the Babylonian-style birth charts for Clark Gable and Carole Lombard (Figures 6C and 6D). Their combined chart is Figure 3L (end of this chapter). Note that Gable's natal Pluto is at 15.8 degrees of Gemini, and Lombard's Sun is at 13.0 degrees of Libra. These two planets in the two different charts are within 3 degrees of being exactly 120 degrees apart. Just as a planetary aspect has an orb, so does an interaspect. The Magi Society uses an...

How To Use This Book

Study the (spiritual) sciences, master their inner meaning Then, having done so, discard the books.

Nor does it purport to convey to the reader instant knowledge or sensational statements that will impress others....

Interaspects

Interaspects are astrological signs of attraction or friction between two people. Here is what they are all about. We have discussed the fact that when two planets in the sky are aligned at any of the seven different aspect-angles, the two planets form an aspect. In the same way, whenever one person's natal planet is aligned at an aspect-angle to another person's natal planet, the two natal planets form an interaspect. An interaspect is a meaningful alignment of two planets, one from one birth...

Uranus In The Twelve Houses

Uranus in the First House, even when well-aspected, makes the person very odd and eccentric in his habits, so that he seems to delight in doing exactly the things that are against the conventions and customs, just so that he may appear odd. He always finds an original way of doing things, different from that of all other people, and is very self-satisfied in his opinion that his methods and ideas are better than any one else's. If opposed he will defend his ideas to the last ditch, if Uranus is...

The Deception Of Pearl Harbor

In the Pacific Theater, the stirrings of World War II actually began years before. China had allowed Japan to drill for oil in several provinces, because Standard Oil's price for kerosene was too high. Through contacts in the Chinese government, Standard Oil had been able to keep anyone from drilling, until the Japanese came and developed huge fields.

Intercepted Signs and Houses

Emotional Wellness Wheel Printout

Because of the tilt of the Earth on its axis, and its distortion from being a perfect sphere, there is often a variance in house sizes as we move north or south from the Equator. When this happens some signs are found to be completely contained within a house i.e., the sign does not appear on any cusp, and we refer to these phenomena as interception. In latitudes of more than 50 north or south, two or more signs may be intercepted in one house or there may be two sets of houses with intercepted...

Traditional Chinese Astrology

Traditional Anishinaabe Star Map

In our modern age, what is regarded as Chinese astrology generally refers to fate-calculation. The most sophisticated systems of fate-calculation are the Ziping method described in Appendix II and the Ziwei dousbu method referred to in Chapter 3. Knowledge of astronomy and an ability to identify stars in the night sky are not essential in these methods. Traditional Chinese astrology would however require knowledge of astronomy. Both in Europe and in China, the word 'astronomy' in the past used...

Qimen Dunjia

The rendering of the term 'Qimen Dunjia rTFIM ' as 'Strange Gates Escaping Techniques' in the chapter title does not represent its true meaning, but rather the impression it gives to the ordinary Chinese reader, who regards it as some arcane knowledge beyond one's reach. 'Qimen niPT has come down to be referred to, for example in colloquial Cantonese, as 'guguai T'IS' - something strange or weird - while 'Dunjia conveys the sense of some sort of mysterious disappearing art.

Capricorn Anger

Anger is a natural, basic human feeling. We feel loving, sad, happy, jealous and we feel angry. Most of us, however, have learned so well to ignore and bottle up our anger that we call it by other names or deny it altogether. Occasionally, we may explode with pent-up, irrational rage, out of control and destructive. Our culture has taught most of us to label anger by such names as irritation, frustration, depression, or sadness. But anger is anger, and no amount of psychological game playing...

Uranian Astrology

The Uranian system of astrology, also known as the Hamburg School of Astrology, had its origins in the early part of the twentieth century. Alfred Witte (1878-1943), the founder of the system, was a renowned astrologer in Germany as well as a surveyor. He and his student and colleague, Friedrich Sieggrun (1877-1951), were members of the famed Kepler Circle. During World War I, Witte tried to use the prevailing astrological methods of his day to time battles. He found these methods to be quite...

This plate is taken from Secrets, 26. It is even possible that this peculiarity of the thirteenth Mansion extends a little beyond its limits. A, Stavisky17, for example, had the Moon in Virgo 19 427 which is 2 5 outside of this Mansion. In any case,...
