Astrology, Science of Knowledge and Reason; a Treatise on the Heavenly Class D FjHJL Book B4_ _ Copyright N° COPYRIGHT DEPOSIT. ASTROLOGY SCIENCE OF KNOWLEDGE AND REASON A TREATISE ON THE HEAVENLY BODIES IN AN EASY AND COMPREHENSIVE FORM ysl— ELLEN H. BENNETT Vt? NEW YORK PUBLISHED BY THE AUTHOR 1897 ADDRESS : 761 SIXTH AVE., NEW YORK CITY Price, f3.00 Copyrighted, 1896, by ELLEN H. BENNETT : THE SOUL'S OUTLOOK. Dedicated to the Author by Leila S. Frost. Upward toward Heaven's silent starry splendor The soul looks through life's bars, Intent as though some secret sweet and tender "Were hidden by the stars. Will ye reveal the secrets of your glory To seer or to sage ? Ye who have mused in silence o'er Earth's story And read Life's tear-stained page ? Ye told man of Our Saviour's birth, most holy 'Twas Heaven's brightest star That flashed the signal-light to shepherds lowly, And spread Love's message far. Is there no sign for us in all thy shining, No lesser light of love. To teach us to look up midst our repining, And raise the soul above ? Onward ye move in state from hour to hour, We follow too at the same God's command. Is there a mortal of us who hath power To loose one glittering hand ? Yet may be read in starry scrolls of splendor Man's destiny—his works, done and undone : Fate's menaces—Love's promise, true and tender, Life's lessons and their rich rewards unwon. Tracing these out amid their starlit courses I see a slight form stand ; It scatters wisdom from those high, pure sources, That woman's slender hand ! ! — — Vi THE SOUL'S OUTLOOK. While round her throng the sad and weary-hearted Dear E. H. B,—she soothes each stricken soul, Reading the secrets of a past departed From Heaven's own starry scroll. Or following the future course unerring With prescience reflected from above, The symboled truths of Life and Love averring With simplest words of love. Yes, Love can teach where earthly wisdom falters. Untaught the heedless yield to Nature's sway : Earth's idols crumble on their ruined altars Love follows Truth along her star-paved way. Seeker ! sad, curious, or longing, Listen and heed the truths she will impart. Ponder them well nor wonder at this thronging, For few have learned this Heaven-imparted art. The charlatan and impostor have trifled And mocked Astrology with lies too long, Until too many mortal ears are stifled, And cannot hear the stars' harmonious song. But now she comes—a woman fair and tender With gentle words to teach this Heaven-writ lore ; She sees beyond the silent starry splendor The Future's open door. Look through ! and smile to see departing thy woes ; Look through ! and see the years that bring thee peace ; Look through! and dry the tears of love quick-starting ; For Heaven alone can give Earth's woes surcease. Dear E. H. B., our own devoted Seer, Who lifts for us that mystic starry veil Which screens the Future—sweet thy mission here Which cannot ever fail 'Tis hers to show amid Life's tangled mazes Of dark and dangerous ways, the way of Love. On Earth she walks, but ever upward gazes On Heaven's pure lights above. PREFACE. This work has been compiled after years of careful, critical study, to demonstrate that we are all members of one great body, and therefore have the same great privi- lege to study and become wise, for knowledge is ours. We, therefore, should digest and assimilate it, and make it part and parcel of ourselves, as there is no more certain way of invigorating the mind than to go into study, which will awaken muscle and soul-force, and will be so bound- less and infinite that we shall soon become happy and wise in ourselves. A zealous study of science brings in- creasing happiness and honor, and a wise man will never cease to learn and become distinguished in his own knowl- edge of good and evil. He will by that means inflict less wrongs on others. The present age embraces such a vast line of study that all can learn what of the morrow. The great number of books that are within reach of all gives to all the opportunity to learn and become wise within them- selves regarding present events, as well as what is coming, so that they may be the better able to protect themselves, and not to cry in the hour of midnight that all is lost, or that they are standing on sandy ground waiting for help ; for each one has within himself a mountain of strength, and only by learning can be brought out the wisdom that Vill PREFACE. each person possesses to a greater or less degree. The same world, with its sun, moon, and stars, exists as thou- sands of years ago, as has been stated by wise writers since the creation of the world ; and the planets do direct the influence of the mind on the body and bring mental emo- tion which, in a brief space of time, induces death in per- fectly healthy people, as is freely admitted by science. Therefore it devolves on us to know ourselves, what .we should eat, drink, and wear, and what complaints we are liable to. By that means we can help ourselves and assist physicians in their grand study and work, for it should not be a belief in what your doctor can do, but a fact in what you yourself can do to help him by understanding yourself and family. Many a wise and learned physician is at a stand- still what to do first to help the patient, when with a little assistance from your knowledge, he would at times save the dear one from death. Now, if parents would study their own and their children's horoscopes, they would be led to pursue a course of mild medicine which would, to a great extent, counteract, if not wholly eradicate, the ten- dency to disease. Our emotions should be as completely under the control of reason as our intellectual processes and actions are. Each one of us has his destiny to fulfil. Few, indeed, endeavor to ascertain what that particular destiny may be. Fewer still, having ascertained the nature of their destiny, are inclined to submit to it. Although life has been defined as "irritability," the excess of the irritable nature tends to shorten life, and quarrelling with one's destiny is as unwise as it is injurious. PREFACE. IX By referring to the diagram of the solar man in this book will be seen the signs that belong to the human body, showing their relatedness to the respective functions of the human system as ruled by the twelve signs of the Zodiac. And by referring to the seven planets in their respective position, one can soon ascertain the nature of the troubles that may be located in the nervous system, whether in mind, anxiety, or bodily disease. I would like to call attention to Horary Astrology, a subject in this work which may be speedily learned by any person of even moderate education, and may, as far as re- gards its elementary difficulties, be mastered in a few days' study. It may be well understood and reduced to con- stant practice in less than three months, and no one will find himself at a loss for occasions to test its reality or its utility, for his own avocations, and the affairs of his friends, will offer these almost daily. If a proposition of any nature be made to any individual, about the result of which he is anxious, and therefore uncertain whether to accede to it or not, let him but note the hour and minute when it was first made, and erect a figure of the heavens, as herein taught, and his doubts will be instantly resolved. He may thus, in five minutes, learn infallibly whether the affair will succeed or not ; and, consequently, whether it is prudent to adopt the offer made or not. To make Horary Astrology more easy, it is necessary to ascertain the hour of sunrise in whatever p'art of the world one may be, which can be found in the almanac or the daily newspaper, and so follow the hour of sunrise during each day of the week. X PREFACE. After many years' experience I have found the laws of Astrology unfailing, and in editing this work my chief ob- ject has been to render it useful to the student in Astrol- ogy, and so, by forwarding the science, to promote the general interests of humanity. By referring to Chapter XL., page 309, the reader will find a full explanation of all the signs and characters used in Astrology, which will enable him to study the various subjects to advantage. Hoping this book will be of use and service to the many, with every good and kindly wish to the readers, Your Friend in Science, Ellen H. Bennett. — CONTENTS PAGE Frontispiece, ii The Soul's Outlook, Dedicated to the Author, . v Preface, vii Introduction, xv I. An Historical Review, 1 II. Origin of the Days of the Week, .... 8 III.

  • Narcissism, Self-Effacement and Rahu and Ketu a Key to Understanding People by Hank Friedman
    Narcissism, Self-Effacement and Rahu and Ketu a key to understanding people by Hank Friedman [Note: For those unfamiliar with Vedic terms, Rahu is the Moon's North Node, and Ketu is the Moon's South Node. Thanks to AstroDatabank for the birth data for the charts in this article.] Ascertaining the positions of the Moon's nodes, Rahu and Ketu, arose from the need to predict eclipses. During a New Moon or Full Moon, if either of the nodes is near the Sun and the Moon, an eclipse occurs. Therefore, the central theme of both nodes is the principle of eclipsing. An eclipse is a momentous event, a major omen, respected from the earliest times as representing a change in the wind, a time of great transition. In the context of Vedic astrology, eclipsing carries the meanings of obscuring, negating, diminishing, paralyzing, and blinding, as well as emphasizing, distorting, amplifying, and exaggerating. Many classical Vedic astrology texts show the meaning of the nodes when in specific houses, e.g. Jataka Parijata (Chapter 8, Shloka 60) states: "When Rahu occupies the Ascendant, the person born will be cruel, without compassion or moral virtue in his nature and suffering from ailments. When Ketu occupies the Ascendant, the person born will be sickly and very avaricious. If the Rahu or Ketu in the Ascendant be aspected by a benefic planet, the person concerned will have princely enjoyments." As the final shloka indicates, the nodes are incredibly mutable chameleons who take on the nature of planets with and aspecting them, as well as the nature of their dispositors (planets that rule the signs that they are in).

  • Late Marriage Marriage Is a Major Landmark in Life and Vedic Astrology Deals with All Aspects of Marriage in Depth
    Astrological combinations for Late Marriage Marriage is a major landmark in life and Vedic Astrology deals with all aspects of marriage in depth. The most important planet for marriage in case of females is Jupiter and in case of males is Venus. Saturn has a major role in the delay of marriage. In this webcast, we will analyze the astrological combinations for a delayed marriage. Planets in the 7th House The placement of Sun in the 7th house indicates delay in marriage and a troubled marriage. The native may not be firm on his principles. In some cases the wife may not have loyalty towards the husband. Placement of Saturn in the 7th house indicates late marriage or more than one marriage. In this case, a person may get married to a widow, divorcee or someone elder in age. Mars in the 7th house is also not a healthy sign for a timely marriage because it indicates strong Manglik effect. Such people should marry after 28 years of age. Saturn and Late Marriage Saturn in conjunction with Moon and the Sun or in aspect indicates a delay in marriage. A delay in marriage also occurs when Saturn is placed in the 7th house or in the ascendant. If Saturn is placed in the 7th house being the lord of 7th house and forms a samsaptak yoga with Sun, it indicates a late marriage. Let us now talk about the position of Saturn in a Navamansh Kundali. If Saturn and Moon are placed together in the 7th house in a Navamsha Kundali, it indicates a late marriage.

  • Significattors and Promittors: How to Delineate Them?
    Significattors and Promittors: How to delineate them? Clelia Romano, DMA Copyright 2008-2010 How to delineate a certain matter or accident of the native´s life when a planet, ruler of a particular house / sign, is applying to another one that is the ruler of another house / sign in the radical chart? Modern astrologers would answer the question above usually considering the result as a mixture of both energies. As an illustration I´ll present the following chart: nd Here we see that Jupiter is at 14º of Aries, in the 2 sign of the 10th house which cusp is in th Pisces. By "whole signs" Jupiter is in the 11 sign. We can say that Jupiter is configured to career and reputation´s issues, but also to matters of friends and hopes. The transit of Jupiter to the Sun in the present chart occurred during the year of 2007. What was supposed to happen? Jupiter is a benefic planet, and in the present chart it is th th in a good place, (10 /11 ) and in Aries he has dignity as ruler of the fire triplicity. The transit of Jupiter to the Sun at 22º02' of Sagittarius, happened in that year. The Sun is in the 6th house, related to services and sickness. Can we expect a mix of the energy of both planets and places? Can we expect good things to happen, mixing energies of the 10th, the 11th and of the 6th? We can ask another question: has the transit of Jupiter to the Sun, as I described above, the same effect of the transit of the Sun applying to Jupiter? Many astrologers will answer in a positive way, taking into account that the transit of the Sun in much faster than the one of Jupiter, so the consequence of the last one would be less visible.
