The Sun signifies the type of work that gets you the most excited, energized, and fired up about life. It also describes the areas where you naturally shine and how you will gain the most enjoyment from the work you do. As a Libra, you’re skilled at harnessing your natural sense of charm to find a balance between opposing viewpoints. You love to create fairness and beauty in the world around you. You also easily understand others and can be especially good at building relationships & negotiating with others to get what you need or want. As an Air sign, you’re most interested in ideas & concepts. As a Cardinal Sign, you’re a self-starter who enjoys initiating new ideas and ventures that can help others, whether you’re hoping to make them feel more comfortable or simply creating a greater sense of harmony in your surroundings. Your planetary ruler is Venus... the planet of love, money, beauty, pleasure, and harmony, so you’re naturally attuned to all of the beauty you see around you and have a desire to remind others of all of the lovely, nice things in the world through art, music, social charm, or material things that can uplift your mood as well. You need a career where you can be highly competitive, artistic, observant, and where you will be able to use your special skills to work closely with others. You would be a natural at any career related to public relations, customer service, music, beauty, the arts, acting, styling, design, politics, law, counseling, human resources, refereeing, architecture, marketing, or even advertising. While you do often like to take the lead, it’s also nice for you to have someone on your side to brainstorm with and bounce ideas off of. As a Libra, you are naturally built for marriage or a strong partnership in romance or business, but it’s also important for you to learn to cultivate a strong sense of self-worth on your own as well. Your life’s best expression lies in the 2nd house of Love, Money & Values. This includes going after your goals and getting on track to getting what you want. The Sun shines brightest in you when you’re seeking to enjoy these pleasures that life brings and share the things you love with others. 6 About Your Moon Sign: VIRGO You were born with the Moon in Virgo in the 1st house. The Moon describes your inner emotional landscape and the type of conditions that are needed for you to feel the most comfortable and creative in your life & career. With your Moon in Virgo, you tend to be rather analytical when dealing with your feelings and feel better when everything is planned out in advance. You are naturally skilled at improving or refining things around you to make them more useful, valuable, or concise. You especially have a strong need to feel like your life is well organized and structured or else you can feel a little lost. The most important thing to know is that Virgo Moons have an innate need to serve others. You’re likely to be quite happy working behind the scenes and providing a job well done. The trick is not to let others take advantage of you for it! Always be sure you are getting your fair share in return. You will feel the best when you can find a career that allows you to focus on the details and have something tangible to show for your work. Your critical thinking skills would make you excellent at skilled manual labor like carpentry as well as editing, analysis, criticism, secretarial work, accounting, nutrition, medical work, healing, social work, or a job in the service industry as a waitress, caterer, or hotel manager. Overall, you like to know that what you will be doing each day helps others. When you are not at your best, it’s often because you are channeling the emotional nature of your opposite sign of Pisces instead of your own Moon Sign. This can result in getting in too deep with your emotions or being over-idealistic, flighty, flaky, or temperamental. It is better for you to analyze any emotional situations in your life objectively and logically plan out ways to overcome them as efficiently as possible. Your emotional landscape is tied to your Identity & Persona. You make most of your decisions based on your intuition and how you believe your actions will be perceived by others. You hope to be well-liked yet still in charge of your own life, and it is important for you to express yourself in a way that is truly authentic to your deeper soul desires, and ideally, to be appreciated for this by others. 7 About Your Rising Sign: LEO Your Rising Sign, also known as your ‘Ascendant’ (AS), is the self you show to the world. Think of it this way: if your Sun reveals who you truly are at heart, your Rising Sign rules your physical, outward appearance and describes how others see you. This is also the work you’re meant to DO to discover your calling. As a Leo Rising, your mission is to shine your light out into the world as far as possible. You were meant to lead, to be in charge, to stand out & be recognized, to stand up in front of a crowd, and be an inspiring example for others to follow - none of which are particularly hard for you, because you already do these things naturally. Leo Risings ooze charisma & talent. They’re naturally creative and do well in careers where they can be in charge of their own self-image. The best careers for you would involve performing, teaching, training, managing, speaking, motivating, directing, or leading. You’re most comfortable in front of a crowd of people and easily command attention, which probably suits you very well, because you also love to have an audience. You also like to make your own schedules & routines, so a career that allows you the flexibility to be in control of your time and efforts is ideal. It is also considered very lucky to act and dress like your Rising Sign as it helps you get into character in order to reach your potential. A Leo’s wardrobe includes anything golden, fiery, royal, or bold with lots of flair, or a big mane of hair. As a personal brand, you want to aim to be known as a show stopper, with everything you do being especially creative, unique, or over the top in some wonderful way. You also want to aim to become known as a warm, generous, loyal, and confident person that others will truly enjoy being around, since what is a true performer without their raving audience? Other famous Leo Rising include: Beyonce, Kirsten Dunst, Heidi Klum, Jennifer Lopez, Meryl Streep, Lena Dunham, Taylor Swift, Kate Moss, Reece Witherspoon *The Rising Sign always begins in the 1st house of your chart, which is related to your Identity & Sense of Self. Sometimes reading the horoscope for your Rising Sign will seem more accurate than your Sun Sign because the Rising Sign describes more of what you are actually consciously trying to do in the world. 8 About Your Midheaven: GEMINI Your Midheaven, as seen as MC on your chart, denotes your Career Line which begins at the 10th house. This axis point signifies your true calling or over- arching mission in this lifetime. It’s also known as the way you might do your job that is considered special or different from others in your field. With your Midheaven in Gemini, you are meant to leave a legacy of spreading messages or ideas to help support others. With a love of learning and endless curiosity, you crave variety and sociability and are to become known as someone who is adaptable to many different situations. You’ll do this by generating new ideas and continuously adding to your repertoire of knowledge wherever you go. Those with Gemini as their Midheaven hope to become known as someone who is good with words, ideas, or messages, and can keep their calm as they work out logical solutions to problems. You can be quite skilled at communicating, teaching, writing, or mentoring others to break down complicated concepts in a way that is easier for others to understand.

  • Fixed Stars More Than the Wandering Planets Used by Modern Astrologers
    Ancients used the fixed stars more than the wandering planets used by modern astrologers. With improved technical abilities due to software enhancements, the fixed stars are beginning to make a return in present day astrology. The information contained in these pages is just a sampling of the stars and their meanings. It is designed to encourage you to look at the subject in a deeper level. When you blend the meaning of the fixed stars with the natal planets in your chart, it adds a great deal of texture to the understanding of your planet/star combination. I normally use a three degree orb of influence between stars and planets, but the commonly accepted orb is only one degree. A research project I did several years ago indicated that people felt the effects of the stars from this wider distance (which can amount to millions of miles). For example, if the planet Mercury in your natal chart is at 17° Gemini, then you will find on page four that item T is the star Rigel in the Orion constellation. Stars that are in the feet of a constellation are considered to be teacher stars in that they bring higher information down to earth to be used. Mercury represents communications, education, writing, and short trips. Combined, this could be a teacher of higher information, possibly a person who travels or writes as part of the teaching process. Again, this is a partial list of stars. Listed below are some of the books and references I have used. REFERENCE: The interpretations come from Bernadette Brady’s “Book of Fixed Stars”, the Solar Maps software program http://www.bernadettebrady.com/; , Ebertin-Hoffman’s book Fixed Stars,” Vivian Robson’s “The Fixed Stars & Constellations in Astrology” and miscellaneous sources.

  • Origins of the House Division Debate Slides
    Questions About House Division • There are many different forms of house division today. – How did this come to be the case? – We can understand the issue better by seeing how it started. • Which systems were used in antiquity? – Were some more popular than others? – How did ancient astrologers reconcile different approaches? • Result of some recent debates on this topic: – Ep. 54 of The Astrology Podcast w/ Deborah Houlding in Nov. 2015. – Robert Schmidt audio recording in June 2016. – Resulted in chapter 11 of my 2017 book, Hellenistic Astrology. – This lecture originally presented at NORWAC 2017 and UAC 2018. The Origins of Western Astrology • Most of the techniques that we associate with western astrology originated about 2000 years ago. • During the Hellenistic era (c. 100 BCE). • Introduction of the fourfold system: 1. Planets 2. Signs of the zodiac 3. Aspects 4. Twelve houses • Part synthesis of earlier traditions, part new innovation.

  • Claudius Ptolemy: Tetrabiblos
    CLAUDIUS PTOLEMY: TETRABIBLOS OR THE QUADRIPARTITE MATHEMATICAL TREATISE FOUR BOOKS OF THE INFLUENCE OF THE STARS TRANSLATED FROM THE GREEK PARAPHRASE OF PROCLUS BY J. M. ASHMAND London, Davis and Dickson [1822] This version courtesy of http://www.classicalastrologer.com/ Revised 04-09-2008 Foreword It is fair to say that Claudius Ptolemy made the greatest single contribution to the preservation and transmission of astrological and astronomical knowledge of the Classical and Ancient world. No study of Traditional Astrology can ignore the importance and influence of this encyclopaedic work. It speaks not only of the stars, but of a distinct cosmology that prevailed until the 18th century. It is easy to jeer at someone who thinks the earth is the cosmic centre and refers to it as existing in a sublunary sphere. However, our current knowledge tells us that the universe is infinite. It seems to me that in an infinite universe, any given point must be the centre. Sometimes scientists are not so scientific. The fact is, it still applies to us for our purposes and even the most rational among us do not refer to sunrise as earth set. It practical terms, the Moon does have the most immediate effect on the Earth which is, after all, our point of reference. She turns the tides, influences vegetative growth and the menstrual cycle. What has become known as the Ptolemaic Universe, consisted of concentric circles emanating from Earth to the eighth sphere of the Fixed Stars, also known as the Empyrean. This cosmology is as spiritual as it is physical.

Macshar. Abstract This paper presents a chapter of the fourteenth century at-21) al-Muwajiq by Ibn aJ-CAzzuz al-Qusanrini (d 1354) containing lhe only known example of numerical tables designed for the computation of the astrological aspects following the most popular method for this practice in lhe Islamic area: that of lhe Single Hour Line. Tbn cAzzuz presents two different procedures. The first one illustrates, according to the author. the melhod normally used in his time, mentioned by "Ptolemy and Hermes", and transmitted by Abu MaCshar. The second one is lhe technique that he uses for computing his tables for the latitude of Fes. The geometrical approach of both procedures is the same and what lbn CAzzOz offers wilh his (abies is a computational tool that aims to improve (he system avoiding certain errors produced by previous algorilhms. Nevertheless, Ibn cAzzuz's final belief is that the computation for lhe aspects must be performed on lhe ecliptic following the simple method - consisting ofadding or subtracting lhe different aspects to the ecliprical longitude of the star or planet -. whereas lhe use of his tables is more appropriate for another astrological practice: the rasyfr or system of progressions.

  • Al-Khw¯Arizm¯I and Practical Astronomy in Ninth-Century Baghdad
    SCIAMVS 5 (2004), 101–198 h. al-Khw¯arizm¯ı and Practical Astronomy in Ninth-Century Baghdad. The Earliest Extant Corpus of Texts in Arabic on the Astrolabe and Other Portable Instruments Fran¸cois Charette Petra G. Schmidl Dibner Institute, MIT Institute for the History of Science Cambridge, Mass. Frankfurt am Main Unserem Doktorvater Abu Max gewidmet Summary: This paper contains an edition with translation and commentary of a corpus of short tracts on portable instruments, preserved in two complementary manuscripts (Berlin Landberg 56 and Istanbul Aya Sofya 4830). Some of these texts are explicitly attributed to the ninth-century Abbasid scientist Ab¯uJafar Muh. ammad ibn M¯us¯aal-Khw¯arizm¯ı. The lengthiest one is a treatise on the use of the astrolabe – the earliest such text in Arabic that is preserved – which until now has only been available in German and Russian translations. All other texts are here published for the first time. This ‘Khw¯arizmiana’ gives us a vivid evidence for al-Khw¯arizm¯ı’s innovative involvement with practical astronomy, which bears witness to the scientific interests of the cultural elite of Abbasid Baghdad during the first half of the ninth century. I Introduction∗ Muh.ammad ibn M¯us¯aal-Khw¯arizm¯ı, the extolled founder of algebra, is perhaps the most notably mythicised icon of Islamic science. In stating this, we do not intend any devaluation of his accomplishments, but we make the equally bold claim that the true nature of his scientific interests, goals and practices have never been ∗Acknowledgments.

For the purposes of this publication there have been considerable revision and enlargement. First of all there have been some discoveries. In the original articles I stated that there was only one unambiguous reference to anything other than the system of houses presented here, and that was in the writings of Julius Firmicus Maternus (see page 14). According to the existing translation he appears to have used the Equal House system. Since then I have consulted the original Latin in which it appears that his use of equal houses is not as clearly established as I had previously thought.
