Short and sweet list of astrological symbols and the best place to get your chart online • Go to astro.com. • Click on “My Astro” (upper right, in the menu bar) • Sign up for a free account (recommended if you want to look up more than one chart). • Enter your birth details (birth time must be accurate!), the system will save your chart under “Stored Astro Data”. • Click on your chart, and you’ll land on a page with lots of free (and paid) horoscope report. • As a newbie, I suggest your start with “Astro Click Portrait”. You are able to click on different points of your chart and get immediate interpretations (see screen shot below). • Remember that this is what’s called “Cookbook Astrology”, meaning that each sign or planet in a house is interpreted in isolation, which can seem contradictory at times (i.e. if you have Moon in Cancer and Venus in Aquarius). This means that there are different aspects that are part of your personality. A conversation with an astrologer would be a starting point to figure out how uniquely (for you!) this is being expressed in your daily life. Also, side note - the glyph for Pluto can be written in two ways - as you see below.

The term ‘ASTROLOGICAL PLUTO’ is proposed because these symbols are used strictly for astrology, (unlike ♇, which is used by astronomers and astrologers), and because something like ASTROLOGICAL SYMBOL FOR PLUTO TYPE ONE is a bit too long.

Extra Symbols from Uranian Astrology by David Faulks (Dаvіdј Faulks@Yahоο.Ca) March 6, 2016

Introduction The purpose of this proposal is to request the addition to Unicode of 8 symbols used by some astrologers. These symbols represent ‘Hypothetical’ planets beyond the normal ones used in western astrologers, and although other such ‘astrological planets’ exist1, the 8 here are part of a well-defined set (known as the ‘TransNeptunians’ or ‘Uranian Planets’.2), and are more commonly used than other ‘hypotheticals’.3 It is proposed that these symbols be encoded in the Miscellaneous Symbols and Arrows block, after a gap (left for some additional astrological characters). The term ‘ASTROLOGICAL PLANET’ is proposed because these symbols are used strictly for astrology, and have no relation to Greek Mythology, asteroids, or anything else that might be suggested by the names. The symbols with proposed codepoints and names are below: 0 U+2BE0 ASTROLOGICAL PLANET CUPIDO 1 U+2BE1 ASTROLOGICAL PLANET HADES 2 U+2BE2 ASTROLOGICAL PLANET ZEUS 3 U+2BE3 ASTROLOGICAL PLANET KRONOS 4 U+2BE4 ASTROLOGICAL PLANET APOLLON 5 U+2BE5 ASTROLOGICAL PLANET ADMETOS 6 U+2BE6 ASTROLOGICAL PLANET VULCANUS 7 U+2BE7 ASTROLOGICAL PLANET POSEIDON The proposed ASTROLOGICAL PLANET POSEIDON resembles U+2D63 TIFINAGH LETTER YAZ, 1 See The Solar System: What is a Planet in Astrology? for most of these. 2 A summary can be found at the site of Arlene Krame r – Uranian Astrologer. 3 A Google search for "astrology" "cupido" "admetos" delivers around 8 times the results of "astrology" "transpluto".

The Jupiter Project
The Jupiter Project Investigating Ways to Connect to the Symbolism of Planet Jupiter Ben Rovers, Canterbury, MA Myth, Cosmology & the Sacred, 8 May 2015 Abstract The Jupiter project was set up to experientially investigate the symbolism of Jupiter by connecting myself in different ways to this planet. To this end a range of creative, imaginal, symbolical and cognitive activities was carried out. The webpage http://astrozolder.nl/category/the-jupiter-project/ shows these activities and the products that came out of it. In this essay the background, set up and main results of the project are described. The results are theoretically reviewed. De dynamic between Jupiter and Saturn is discussed in the light of Jung’s concept of enantiodromia. The nature of the connection to Jupiter is discussed, particularly the role of transpersonal consciousness in experiencing the symbolism coming to life. Spangler’s ideas on personal and pure (soul) will are used to explain the different ways in which the connection is established. It is concluded that pure will opens up the possibility of a vivid connection to the symbolism. Personal will seems to work in the opposite direction: it closes the gateway to this experience. Introduction In astrology planets represent symbolical realities. As any astrologer I experience some of these realities more lively than others. The realities represented by the planet Jupiter are not the ones I feel most strongly connected to. The Jupiter project was set up to experientially investigate this (lack of) connection. Theoretically the project was inspired by examples of renaissance (astrological) magic in which the power of Jupiter is invoked by acts of alignment at the proper times, using symbols and conducting rituals.

Astrolabe Font 1
Astrolabe Font 1 is designed for use in word processing, page makeup and graphics programs, where it can be selected just as you would select an ordinary font like Times New Roman or Arial. Astrolabe Font 1 contains an unusually complete set of serif-style astrological symbols. These are proportionally spaced so that they will look good when inserted in text along with other proportionally spaced fonts containing the usual letters and numbers. For ease in typing, all the ordinary astrological symbols are located on the regular number and letter keys on your keyboard. Additional symbols are accessible by pressing the Alt key and typing a number sequence on your numeric keypad. Because Astrolabe Font 1 is proportionally spaced and has the main astrological symbols placed on the regular keyboard, it is not suitable for use within Solar Fire or most other astrological calculation programs. When you install Astrolabe Font 1, both TrueType and PostScript (Adobe Type 1) versions of this font are copied into the usual font folders on your hard disk. • The font file of the TrueType version is named Ast1sps.ttf . It is added to your \Windows\Fonts folder. • The multiple font files used for the PostScript version have the filenames Assp___.afm , Assp___.cfg , etc. These are added to your \Windows\Psfonts folder. Both versions of this font will show up in the regular font menu of your word processor under the name —Astrolabe 1.“ or —Astrolabe 1SP.“ The TrueType version, which may have a blue —TT“ next to it, will suffice for most purposes, though in special cases you might want to use the PostScript version.

Rainbow Messenger of the Gods and Goddesses by Roderick Kidston
The Iris Asteroids Report Rainbow Messenger of the Gods and Goddesses by Roderick Kidston for Oprah Winfrey 29 January 1954 4:30 AM Kosciusko, Mississippi Libra Moon, Inc www.libramoonastrology.com www.zodiac-reports.com The Iris Asteroids Report Rainbow Messenger of the Gods and Goddesses Report and Text Copyright 2007 Roderick Kidston The contents of this report are protected by copyright law. By purchasing this report you agree to comply with this copyright. INTRODUCTION Ever since the early 19th Century, astronomers have been aware of the existence of asteroids, but astrologers have only been using them as part of the horoscope since 1973. And even so, only a small number of astrologers actually use the asteroids when reading charts for people. This is in large part because the asteroids are not well understood, except for the first four to be discovered: Ceres, Pallas, Juno and Vesta. But now, the Iris Report aims to change all that! Here you will find interpretations for twelve major asteroids and their impact in the natal chart. They add balance, detail and depth of meaning to astrological interpretation. Most of the asteroids found in the Iris Report are named for classical goddesses rather than gods, and this is partly in order to balance the excess of masculine energy that a purely planetary astrology reveals. Most of you will know that the ten ‘planetary’ factors used in standard astrological interpretation are the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. Many astrologers also include the planetoid Chiron to this list of ten, making eleven.

The Church of San Miniato Al Monte, Florence: Astronomical and Astrological Connections
THE INSPIRATION OF ASTRONOMICAL PHENOMENA VI ASP Conference Series, Vol. ???, 2010 E. M. Corsini The Church of San Miniato al Monte, Florence: Astronomical and Astrological Connections Valerie Shrimplin Independent Art Historian, St. Albans, England, UK Abstract. The Church of San Miniato al Monte is examined in the context of interest in astrology and astronomy in early Renaissance Florence. Vitru- vius emphasised the need for architects to “be acquainted with astronomy and the theory of the heavens” in his famous Ten Books of Architecture and, at San Miniato, astronomical and astrological features are combined in order to link hu- manity with the celestial or spiritual realm. The particular signiﬁcance of Pisces and Taurus is explored in relation to Christian symbolism, raising questions about the role of astronomy and astrology in art and architecture. 1. Historical Context The Church of San Miniato al Monte in Florence (Figure 1) stands high above Florence on the south bank of the Arno, above the piazza Michelangelo. The church was rebuilt in the early 11th century on an earlier third century foundation– the site of the resting place of Florence’s ﬁrst early Christian martyr, a Greek by birth who was decapitated during the persecutions of the Emperor Decius.1 Disregarding rumours that the remains of St. Minias had been transferred by relic hunters to Metz, Hildebrand (the 11th century bishop of Florence) chose the saint as patron of the church and rebuilding began in 1013-1018. It began as a Benedictine monastery, passed to the Cluniacs and then in 1373 to the Olivetans, who still run it.

THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY of AMERICA the Use of Military
THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA The Use of Military Astrology in Late Medieval Italy: The Textual Evidence A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the Department of History School of Arts & Sciences Of The Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Philosophy © Copyright All Rights Reserved By Robert S. Hand Washington, D.C. 2014 The Use of Military Astrology in Late Medieval Italy: The Textual Evidence. Robert S. Hand Director: Katherine L. Jansen, Ph. D. This study examines the thirteenth-century astrologer Guido Bonatti’s Liber Astronomicus as a case study to investigate one aspect of the many practical applications of astrology in the later Middle Ages. Specifically, it looks at the application of military astrology to analyze Bonatti’s use of his source material in relation to his own practice. The dissertation develops a methodology to discern the astrologer’s practice from his textual inheritance. Bonatti was possibly the most important astrologer of the high middle ages. His work was an encyclopedic, yet detailed survey of the entire field of astrological study in the Europe of his day. He acknowledged his Arab sources but was not merely a compiler of their material. Like many of his European contemporaries in other fields such as Thomas Aquinas, Albertus Magnus and Roger Bacon, Bonatti put his own stamp on the field of astrology. Staying within the basic traditions as he inherited them, he systematized and expanded often terse material, and frequently innovated in certain applications of astrology. By close and detailed examinations of Bonatti’s text and comparison with his sources, we can see the changes that reflect his personal experience which in turn caused him to alter and emend the tradition.

Hermeticism and Astrology MMYMA4DSS
Janet Saunders Hermeticism and Astrology MMYMA4DSS Hermeticism and astrology: What is the relevance of hermetic astrology for modern man? Janet Saunders Dissertation submitted for the degree Master of Arts in Myth, Cosmology and the Sacred Canterbury Christ Church University September 2016 1 Janet Saunders Hermeticism and Astrology MMYMA4DSS Hermeticism and astrology: What is the relevance of hermetic astrology for modern man? Abstract According to the hermetic sources the cosmos is a living sacred being mixed out of body, soul and spirit. The human has a special place in it due to the soul’s mediating role and our paradoxical nature. On the one hand we are able, through reason, to negotiate our way through the material world and on the other, through nous, we have qualities of imagination and intuition and so are able to appreciate love and beauty as intrinsic to the spiritual life of the cosmos. The qualities of nous can be cultivated via reverence and initiation and enable man to see the world symbolically and so divine the course of best action, in line with God’s will. The recovery of these ideas in the Renaissance by Marsilio Ficino, was central to his spiritual work and astrological practice, which was a daily preoccupation for him. In our time there is a tendency to prioritise the material world, manipulated by science and technology, accompanied by the loss of soul or spirit. These factors contribute to the loss of the presentiment of astrology as described by Geoffrey Cornelius. In the twenty first century, Iain McGilchrist argues from material science, that we do indeed have two ways of engaging with the world built in to the two hemispheres of our brains.

Associations Between the Royal Arch and Astrology Ronald Naumowicz IV SRICF
Associations between the Royal Arch and Astrology Ronald Naumowicz IV SRICF In compiling his famous star catalog (completed 129 BCE), the Greek astronomer Hipparchus noticed that the positions of the stars were shifted in a systemic way from the earlier Babylonian (Chaldean) measures. This indicated that it was not the stars that were moving but rather the observing platform—Earth. Such a motion is called precession and consists of a cyclic wobbling in the orientation of the earth’s axis of rotation. Precession is caused by the gravitational influence of the Sun and the Moon acting on Earth’s equatorial bulge, with the planets exerting their force to a much lesser degree. The first astronomer recorded to have continued Hipparchus's work on precession is Ptolemy in the second century. Ptolemy compared his own observations with those made by Hipparchus, Menelaus of Alexandria, Timocharis, and Agrippa. He found that between Hipparchus's time and his own (about 265 years), the stars had moved 2°40', or 1° in 100 years (36" per year; the rate accepted today is about 50" per year or 1° in 72 years). Realizing each sign of the zodiac consists of thirty degrees, and the sun loses one degree every seventy two years. It would be fair to state the sun regresses through one entire constellation in approximately 2,160 years, and through the entire zodiac in about 25,920 years. This is known as the Great Year. Now that we have a basic understanding of our earth’s rotation, let us take a moment to place our year and seasons in the proper perspective.

The Astrological Imaginary in Early Twentieth–Century German Culture
The Astrological Imaginary in Early Twentieth–Century German Culture by Jennifer Lynn Zahrt A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in German and the Designated Emphasis in Film in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Niklaus Largier, Co-Chair Professor Anton Kaes, Co-Chair Professor Jonathan Sheehan Spring 2012 ©2012 Jennifer Lynn Zahrt, All Rights Reserved. Abstract The Astrological Imaginary in Early Twentieth–Century German Culture by Jennifer Lynn Zahrt Doctor of Philosophy in German and the Designated Emphasis in Film University of California, Berkeley Professor Niklaus Largier, Co-Chair Professor Anton Kaes, Co-Chair My dissertation focuses on astrological discourses in early twentieth–century Germany. In four chapters, I examine films, literary texts, and selected academic and intellectual prose that engage astrology and its symbolism as a response to the experience of modernity in Germany. Often this response is couched within the context of a return to early modern German culture, the historical period when astrology last had popular validity. Proceeding from the understanding of astrology as a multiplicity of practices with their own histories, my dissertation analyzes the specific forms of astrological discourse that are taken up in early twentieth–century German culture. In my first chapter I examine the revival of astrology in Germany from the perspective of Oscar A. H. Schmitz (1873–1931), who galvanized a community of astrologers to use the term Erfahrungswissenschaft to promote astrology diagnostically, as an art of discursive subject formation. In my second chapter, I discuss how Paul Wegener’s Golem film cycle both responds to and intensifies the astrological and the occult revivals.
