Overview of Royal Stars Antares • Why the Royal Stars are Important • Past and Current Seasonal Sign and Degree Fomalhaut • Their astronomy and the Constellations they occupy • History and Stories Regulus • Planets and Moon including Aldebaran Moon Occultation series • Altair as a Former Royal Star • Resources Why Royal Stars are important! • They are 4 first magnitude stars that mark a Grand Cross of directional points, helping us navigate the sky. • The 4 stars were at cardinal directional points during significant turning points in humanity thousands of years ago and will be again. • These stars are written about in countless ancient texts from a wide variety of cultures and spiritual/religious beliefs, including the Christian Bible. That is a reflection of the large influences these stars have held for us without much modern-day realization (and still do!) in our spiritual expressions and writings today. • Like the zodiac, these 4 stars represent an intimate connection to our ancestors from all over the world.

(The Fixed Stars and Constellations in Astrology by Vivian Robson ). And these stars are also linked with the Archangels in this order: Michael (Aldebaran) watcher of the East Gabriel (Fomalhaut) watcher of the South Raphael (ReGulus) Watcher of the North Uriel (Antares) Watcher of the West Aldebaran/Winter Sky Aldebaran is Currently located in the Hyades an asterism in the The Bull constellation Winter Triangle a.k.a. of the Bull Heaven’s Gate near Orion and the Winter Triangle also known as Heaven’s Gate at the edge of our Galaxy. Astronomy of Aldebaran Magnitude -2.1 and the 14th brightest star in our night sky. An orange/red star about 153 times brighter than our Sun and 65 light years away from Earth. The Hyades are about 150 light-years away from Earth or 85 light years further from Earth than Aldebaran. Aldebaran is 44 times bigger than our Sun. That means if Aldebaran was in the place of our Sun its surface would extend close to the orbit of Mercury. Polaris is our present-day North Star. However, Aldebaran was the North Star around 450,000 years ago along with the star Capella. (see next two slides) At that time Aldebaran appeared several times brighter in the sky then than it does now and was near the very bright star Capella meaning 450,000 years ago these two brilliant stars served as a double pole star. ~ From EarthSky.org Aldebaran is Arabic - meaning “the follower.” According to Richard Hinckley Allen in his classic book Star Names: their Lore and Meaning the name Aldebaran originally applied to the entire Hyades star cluster and not just the single star. The bull In fact Aldebaran is not originally part of the Hyades cluster as already shared. Ancient sky lore, suggests the teary Hyades are the The Hyades daughters of Atlas and Aethra, forever crying for January evenings their brother Hyas, who was killed by a lion or a boar or in a hunting accident of some kind (different versions of the story). Aldebaran The Hyades are the half-sisters to the Pleiades, the daughters of Atlas and Pleione. The gods purposely kept Atlas’ daughters – the Hyades and the Pleaides – out of reach of Orion, giving them a safe haven from his lustful pursuits. Pleiades Aldebaran - Watcher of the East Capella The Bull • Planets within 6 to 10 degrees amplify the transmission of Aldebaran light codes (or any Royal Star) to our conscious awareness. • Is also known as the Calf, the Red Deer, the sow, the ox, God’s eye, Buddha’s eye, Star of Ascent (see Kabbalistic symbol below) • Aldebaran is “The Leading Star of Stars” because in antiquity all star longitudes were measured from it or from its opposite, Antares. • It has been described as a light portal to the mysteries of the mind This is the magical Hermetic Kabbalistic symbol for Aldebaran by Cornelius Agrippa Capella and Aldebaran were the from his book Occult Philosophy North Pole Star 450,000 years ago. published in 1533 Aldebaran is now located in the Hyades. …the Silver Gate is above Orion, at the centre of the Duat; the Aldebaran Egyptian Netherworld…represented on the ground in the Giza area. The ancient Greeks, who received much of their Orion knowledge from Egypt, believed that souls reside in the Milky Way between incarnations, and that there are 2 “gates” on the Milky Way. These are the Silver Gate of (The Twins) Gemini, where souls descend to earth, and the Golden Gate of (The Archer) Sagittarius, where souls ascend. Other versions say the souls of men (humans) can ascend by either gate, but that the Silver Gate leads to reincarnation and the ancestors, and the Golden Gate leads beyond reincarnation. The Golden Gate is the gate the Gods descend into this reality… The Silver Gate is just above the “hand” of Orion, who the Egyptians associated with Osiris, and they depicted him holding a star in his hand. In The Orion Mystery, Bauval & Gilbert presumed this to be the star Aldebaran. Now, Gilbert has found that the Egyptian word for star, s’ba, also means “door”, so Osiris is holding a Star-Gate. In some depictions, Osiris is holding an ankh towards the gate, so this must be the key that unlocks the star-gate. http://www.diagnosis2012.co.uk/7.htm As already described Aldebaran seems to be the key to opening the doorway to the enlightened mind – or as some have indicated the entrance into one of the Halls of Records. (Starwalking by Page Bryant). Aldebaran is the key to the silver gate where souls entered this realm and is the key (or ankh to the Egyptians) that the High Man (Orion) holds in his hand. This suggests this area of the sky (highly activated when planets are here) is opening a portal of unprecedented transformation. The late Astronomer Jack Eddy suggests Aldebaran has a connection with the Big Horn Medicine Wheel in Wyoming. Eddy feels ancient Native Americans may have used this site as an observatory to view the rising of Aldebaran just before the Sun (heliacal rise) in June to predict the June solstice. https://www.nytimes.com/2009/06/18/us/18eddy.htm Stars of the First People by Dorcas S Miller speaks to this medicine wheel saying holy people from different tribes may have visited and ceremonially used it - as its location does not support large encampments. Has been linked with the Cheyenne and Arapahoe. The Crow said it was built by “people who had no iron” or before the white man came and has long been associated with the Sun Dance lodge. Aldebaran is located in the Sacred Hoop of Stars The Galactic Edge As Identified by the Lakota at the Edge of our Galaxy opposite of Antares near the Aldebaran Center of our Galaxy. The Stars that mark the Rim of the Hoop are Capella, Castor, Pollux, Procyon, Sirius, Rigel, and the Pleiades Aldebaran is Primarily a The Bull winter and spring evening star for those in The Bull the northern hemisphere.

  • Fixed Stars More Than the Wandering Planets Used by Modern Astrologers

    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.

This belt is considered special because it is where the sun, the moon, and the planets all move. The word zodiac means “circle of figures” or “circle of life”. As the earth revolves around the sun, different parts of the sky become visible. Each month, one of the 12 constellations show up above the horizon in the east and disappears below the horizon in the west. If you are born under a particular sign, the constellation it is named for can’t be seen at night. Instead, the sun is passing through it around that time of year making it a daytime constellation that you can’t see!

Although partially studied by a few Chinese scholars, it has never been fully displayed and discussed in the Western world. This set of sky maps (12 hour angle maps in quasi-cylindrical projection and a circumpolar map in azimuthal projection), displaying the full sky visible from the Northern hemisphere, is up to now the oldest complete preserved star atlas from any civilisation. It is also the first known pictorial representation of the quasi-totality of the Chinese constellations. This paper describes the history of the physical object – a roll of thin paper drawn with ink. We analyse the stellar content of each map (1339 stars, 257 asterisms) and the texts associated with the maps. We establish the precision with which the maps are drawn (1.5 to 4° for the brightest stars) and examine the type of projections used.

For more information, please contact [email protected]. DETECTION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF HOT SUBDWARF COMPANIONS OF MASSIVE STARS by LUQIAN WANG Under the Direction of Douglas R. Gies, PhD ABSTRACT Massive stars are born in close binaries, and in the course of their evolution, the initially more massive star will grow and begin to transfer mass and angular momentum to the gainer star. The mass donor star will be stripped of its outer envelope, and it will end up as a faint, hot subdwarf star. Here I present a search for the subdwarf stars in Be binary systems using the International Ultraviolet Explorer. Through spectroscopic analysis, I detected the subdwarf star in HR 2142 and 60 Cyg. Further analysis led to the discovery of an additional 12 Be and subdwarf candidate systems. I also investigated the EL CVn binary system, which is the prototype of class of eclipsing binaries that consist of an A- or F-type main sequence star and a low mass subdwarf.

  • Drekkanna - the D/3 Chart = Dreshkhamsa

    Drekkanna - the D/3 Chart = Dreshkhamsa

    DREKKANNA - THE D/3 CHART = DRESHKHAMSA Drekkana the D-3 chart = dreshkhamsha = a graphic representation of the placement of each radix graha into one of the 36 Drekkana BPHS Chapter 6: Shloka 7-8. Dreshkamsha: "One third of a Rashi is called Dreshkamsha. These are totally 36, counted from Mesha, repeating thrice at the rate of 12 per round. The 1st, 5th and the 9th Rashi from a Rashi are its three Dreshkhamsha and are,respectively, lorded by 1. Narada, 2. Agasthya 3. Durvasha." The meaning of the word DRESH – KANA DRESH mens seeing or visualizing objects which are apparent or hidden (obscure) in nature. KANA means corner or trine (Trikona). Therefore, Dreshkana represents the varga (division) where the signs, trine to each other, convey apparent as well as hidden personality and nature (swaroopa) of the native. Quotes From: David Frawley. the Astrology of the Seers, p. 186: "In this harmonic the first 1/3 or ten degrees 00° 00'-10° 00' of any sign ruled by itself. The middle 1/3,10° 00'-20° 00', is ruled by the subsequent sign of the same element. The last 1/3, 20° 00'-30° 00', is ruled by the final sign of the same element. For example, the first 1/3 of Sagittarius is in the harmonic third of Sagittarius, the second 1/3 in the harmonic third of Aries, and the last 1/3 in the harmonic third of Leo. Hence, if Saturn is located in a birth chart at 15° 20' Sagittarius, it would be in the harmonic third of Aries.
  • The Natural Zodiac: the Nature of the Archetypes in Evolutionary Astrology

    The Natural Zodiac: the Nature of the Archetypes in Evolutionary Astrology

    The Natural Zodiac: The nature of the archetypes in Evolutionary Astrology. An introduction to the teachings of Jeffrey Wolf Green by Mark Jones, U.K. Pluto School, May 2003. The Zodiac itself represents or incorporates the totality of consciousness in human form on the earth in space-time reality. All of our human experience within the relative universe is contained within the 12 signs of the Zodiac. The next central point to understand is that from the perspective of Evolutionary Astrology there is no essential difference between a planetary embodiment of an archetype or that of a house cusp or planet – in simple terms, with the example of the first archetype Aries - there is no difference between the sign Aries, the first house and the planet Mars. They all carry some essential quality as the first of the twelve – they all share an essential similarity. What you are actually looking at when you look at a chart is how any given consciousness is structured. The 12 archetypes provide energy and quality within a multiplicity of possible interactions with each other to create the diversity of possible experience in life on earth. Rather like DNA the 12 strands or archetypes of the zodiac provide a blueprint for all experience. ARIES Aries is a Cardinal, Fire and Yang archetype. This correlates with the nature of energy moving outwards from the center, projected energy (whereas the Yin archetypes correspond to energy returning to the center). Whilst the Yin/Yang dynamic of the signs represents the natural polarity of our universe, the trinity of Cardinal, Fixed and Mutable signs adds a further dimension to the type of energy expressed.

    geosciences Review A Review on Substellar Objects below the Deuterium Burning Mass Limit: Planets, Brown Dwarfs or What? José A. Caballero Centro de Astrobiología (CSIC-INTA), ESAC, Camino Bajo del Castillo s/n, E-28692 Villanueva de la Cañada, Madrid, Spain; [email protected] Received: 23 August 2018; Accepted: 10 September 2018; Published: 28 September 2018 Abstract: “Free-floating, non-deuterium-burning, substellar objects” are isolated bodies of a few Jupiter masses found in very young open clusters and associations, nearby young moving groups, and in the immediate vicinity of the Sun. They are neither brown dwarfs nor planets. In this paper, their nomenclature, history of discovery, sites of detection, formation mechanisms, and future directions of research are reviewed. Most free-floating, non-deuterium-burning, substellar objects share the same formation mechanism as low-mass stars and brown dwarfs, but there are still a few caveats, such as the value of the opacity mass limit, the minimum mass at which an isolated body can form via turbulent fragmentation from a cloud. The least massive free-floating substellar objects found to date have masses of about 0.004 Msol, but current and future surveys should aim at breaking this record. For that, we may need LSST, Euclid and WFIRST. Keywords: planetary systems; stars: brown dwarfs; stars: low mass; galaxy: solar neighborhood; galaxy: open clusters and associations 1.
