From ancient times up to the seventeenth century Electional Astrology in common with all the other branches of the subject received a good deal of attention, and it is a matter for surprise that it has not shared in the present revival of interest in Astrology, considering the extreme popularity and usefulness of the matters with which it deals.

CA, p.369 CHAP. LII Who shall do best in a suit of law? If the lord of the ascendant and seventh be in angles, neither shall overcome2: see which is joined to an evil planet in a cadent house, that party shall be overcome: if both be joined to infortunes, both parties will be undone by the suit, or receive infinite prejudice. If the one be strong and the other weak, and he that is strong be not cadent, nor joined to an infortune; and he that is ill dignified, or in a weak quarter of heaven or house, I say, if he be not in his own house, or exaltation, or with a good planet; then the strongest in the scheme overcomes. He that is but meanly strong in the figure, seems very fearful; sometimes he hopes to win, at other times to lose: and observe this in questions, concerning wars and kingdoms, the fortitude of a planet is greater in his exaltation than in his house, in all other questions quite contrary.

  • The Hyleg and Alcoccoden by Bernadette Brady (First Published In: the Australis 97 Congress Papers)
    The Hyleg and Alcoccoden By Bernadette Brady (First Published in: The Australis 97 Congress Papers) Life and Death It is only in the last one hundred years that science and medicine have made sufficient advances to free us from the concerns of our own length of life. Those of us who live in the western world expect to live a long and healthy life and feel we have the right to assume that every child will also live and fulfil society’s expectations of adulthood. Of our own children we expect that they will reach maturity and accordingly we plan for their future, in a sense investing in them in the hope that they will also provide us with family and security in our old age. How valid this modern belief is can be questioned. However, we do know that this was not the common belief held throughout most of human history. For apart from modern times the continuing life of a new born child could not be assumed and there was every reason to assume that the child would not be reared successfully. The parents therefore would naturally have questions concerning whether they should produce another heir, whether the child should be named or educated or trained in a profession, or whether he or she should be allowed to enjoy a happy, if not short life, which contained no education or expectations of their adulthood. These may seem offensive questions to our modern expectations but when resources were limited and one’s safety and quality of old age depended upon one’s ability to produce and rear heirs, these were vital questions concerning the chart of the new born child.

  • Gerard Cremonensis on Astronomical Geomancy
    GERARD CREMONENSIS O N A STRONOMICAL G EOMANCY. ecause Astronomy is so transcendent and subtil an Art in itself, that therein a man ought to have respect unto so many things before he can attaine to true judgment thereby, because the eye of the understanding will not pierce unto the half thereof, and few Doctors of our later time have B ffi been found so experienced therein that they know su ciently how to judge thereby; Therefore I have composed this work, which I wilt have to be named, Astronomical Geomancy; wherein, I will sufficiently teach how to judge with less labour and study. For in this present science it is not requisite to behold neither the Ascendant, nor the hour in a Table, as it is in Astrology. It is expedient therefore, to make four unequal lines, by the points casually set down; and to joyne together those points; and out of the points which are not joyned together, which do remain in the heads of the lines, (as it is done in Geomancie) extract one figure; and the signe of the Zodiack that answereth to that figure, put for the Ascendent, for the words sake. If Acquisitio arise from the heads of those four Lines, let Aries be placed in the Ascendent; if Laetitia, or the lesser Fortune put Taurus in the Ascendent; if Puer or Rubeus, place Gemini; If Albus, Cancer; if Via, Leo; if Conjunctio or the Dragons Head, Virgo; if Puella, Libra; if Amissio or Tristitia, Scorpio; if the Dragons Tail, Sagittary; if Populus, Cap- ricorn; if Fortuna major, Aquary; if Carcer, then put Pisces for the Ascendent.

  • House Keywords: What and Where
    House Keywords: What and Where House Axis Keywords he houses represent areas of life experience. In the grammar of astrology, they are the prepositions (that 1st vs. 7th T tell you where) and the prepositional phrases (that tell Me vs. You you with what). It’s essential that you follow the format of the blueprint 2nd vs. 8th sentences exactly when working with houses. Often, the blueprint Mine vs. Yours sentences will feel a little awkward because the grammar and syntax in astrology doesn’t translate directly to the grammar and syntax 3rd vs. 9th in English. Do not alter the blueprint sentences in any way! Near vs. Far You can adjust the phrasing when you build the chair from the blueprint, but if you alter the phrasing of the blueprint sentence 4th vs. 10th you will not maintain a clear understanding of exactly how the Private vs. Public houses relate to the planets. The difference between the house a planet occupies (IN) and 5th vs. 11th the houses a planet rules (WITH) is critical. The house keywords Self-expression vs. Group expression are divided into two categories to make the blueprint sentences easier to complete. 6th vs. 12th Physical vs. Spiritual WHERE Keywords The where keywords define specific locations and areas of life associated with the particular house. These are the keywords you will choose from when describing a planet IN a house. Additional WHAT Keywords Many houses also include a list of additional what keywords that are also associated with the houses. Grammatically, these keywords don’t fit well to describe where the energy of a planet is encountered.
