ZAIN Course 8-E 1 QUESTIONS RELATING TO THE FIRST SIX HOUSES Copyright, 1931 by E l b e r t B e n j a m i n e Serial No. 90 THE CHURCH OF LIGHT Box 1525, Los Angeles, California December 7, 1941, 7:50 a.m. S.T ., Japanese planes began to rain bombs on the ships and airdromes of Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Japan at the time was talking peace at Washington, and professing the belief that a satisfactory settlement of all difficulties was about to be reached. The attack was quite unexpected by the U. S. forces in Hawaii, and caught them completely off guard. The chart must be read as a Japanese enterprise. It thus repre­ sents how Japan will be affected by the war she then started. December 8, 1941, 4:10 p.m. E.S.T., President Franklin Delano Roosevelt signed the United States Declaration of War on Japan. This chart must be read as a United States enterprise. It thus indicates the fortunes and misfortunes which the U. S. will en­ counter in its war with Japan. No. of House Cusp X XI XII i i i h i No.4. Chart 2328 ¿7X01 =200 2 3 ^2=4 0 '»«21 ^23 No.6.

Each chart is indi­ cated by an Arabic numeral at the left. This numeral appears twice; once at the left of the line in which the houses are tabulated, and once at the left of the line in which the planets are tabulated. Fol­ @lowing this number, which designates a given chart, the sign and degree upon the cusp of each of the houses, from the 10th to the 3rd, are given in the same horizontal line, but in a column directly below the Roman numeral which indicates the house. The number of the chart is then used again in a separate table in which the sign and degree occupied by each of the planets are given in the same horizontal line, but in a column directly below the symbol of the planet. This method enables the ele­ ments of many charts to be tabulated in a small space. To use such a table, the signs and degrees should be copied into a blank horoscope chart, so that they oc­ cupy the house-cusps indicated. Then upon the opposite house-cusps place the same sign and degree of the op­ posite sign. And finally, always being careful to use only the elements in the same horizontal line to the right of the chart number, the degrees and minutes of 133 134 QUESTIONS OF each planet should be noted, and the planets entered in the chart, just as in erecting a horoscope. On page 132 will be found a table containing the elements of five different charts, and the elements of four more will be found on page 164 of lesson No. 91. As these lessons were written, and the charts erected, in 1920, the planet Pluto is not included; for it was not discovered until ten years later. These are example charts which will be used to illustrate the proper method of judging horary questions; and consequently, should be copied into blank maps for the purpose of study. Furthermore, as in each instance the data is given upon which they are erected, it is advisable for the student to erect the charts and compare his work with the charts so copied. This gives him twelve distinct charts in the first six lessons of the course, by which he can test his ability to make the calculations porperly. What Is My Question About?— When a horary chart is radical, it is usually possible by inspecting the chart, yet without being told, to determine the nature of the question asked. This is accomplished by noting the houses in which the significator and cosignificator of the Querent are in, and the houses occupied by any planets strongly aspecting them. Thus in example chart No. 1 (lesson No. 86), as a horary question, I would look to the house the Moon is in and the houses occupied by any planets making powerful aspects to the Moon; for the Moon in this chart is both cosignificator of the querent and ruler of the Ascendant. Neptune is the chief significator, and ruling the 9 th indicates some thought of a journey; but its aspects are weak. FIRST SIX HOUSES 135 The Moon, on the contrary, has powerful aspects. As it is in the house of friends, I would say the question chiefly relates to friends. It has just passed the opposition of Venus in the house of children and love affairs, and the square of Uranus in the house of legacies and the partner’s money. One could safely judge, therefore, that the question relates to a friendship which has been severed (opposition signifies separation) due to the influence of a child or a love affair. This situation has placed an obstacle (square signifies obstacle) in the way of receiv­ ing a legacy, or money from a partner. In example chart No. 2 (lesson No. 88), because the querent has so many significators, as shown by three planets in the 1st, the question is a complex one, involv­ ing many factors. Yet because the ruler of the Ascendant is in the 1st, the question is primarily concerned with personal matters. The other factors chiefly relate to the personal life, and are shown by the houses ruled by the various co- significators of the querent. The ruler of the Ascendant in the 1st, indicates concern about the health. Mercury, ruling the 4th and coruler of the 5th and 7th, in the 1st, indicates concern about the home, children and husband. Venus, ruling the 3rd, and coruler of the 8th, in the 1st, indicates concern about relatives or travel, and about the husband’s income. The Moon, cosignificator of the querent, being in the 12th, indicates that the querent was greatly restricted at the time the question was asked. The most significant thing about the chart, however, is the presence of two traveling planets, Mercury and Uranus, in the 1st. From this I decide the thought uppermost 136 QUESTIONS OF in the mind at the time the question was asked is about some contemplated change by which the restrictions shown by the position of the Moon may be removed. The question actually asked was: “ Will I change my residence?” This, on the surface of it, is a 4th house question; but further interrogation brought to light that the change of residence was prompted by the greater desire to attain other ends; greater freedom, more abun­ dant health and better opportunities for children and husband. In example chart No. 3 (lesson No. 89), the ques­ tion at once is seen to revolve about the 3rd and 9th; for one cosignificator of the querent is in the house of journeys and publishing and the other is in the house of travel, writing and study. The significator of the querent is Mars, ruling the house of money and the house of partnership. One may safely say, from in­ specting this chart, yet without knowing anything about the querent or having been told anything about the question, that he was contemplating either writing or travel for the purpose of making money, and that there was a partnership involved. The Moon separating from square Saturn in the 11th, indicates he has re­ cently lost a friend. The Moon applying trine Neptune, indicates successful promotion of the enterprise; and Venus applying to a conjunction of the Sun, coruler of the 11th, will bring him friends of influence who will give him adequate support. FIRST SIX HOUSES 137 Climate, Kind of Country, Land, Part of City and Part of Home Ruled by the Zodiacal Signs: ARIES: Part of country: a hot, dry climate, sparsely settled, moderately high and rugged. Land where peb­ bles and boulders are numerous, fields that are freshly plowed. Part of city: the manufacturing district, hard­ ware stores, repair garages and auto service stations. Part of home: doorways, roof, and tool-room. TAURUS: Part of the country; a cold, dry climate: low, level country without brush or woods, pastures where cattle feed. Land in which seed has just been planted. Part of city: banks, safes, vaults, cash registers, and places where money and securities are kept. Part of home; store-rooms, trunks, places where personal property is securely kept. GEMINI: Part of country; a temperate climate, thickly settled, or a city or town, moderately high, and where the wind blows.

  • 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).

    The Transmission of Ptolemy’s Terms: An Historical Overview, Comparison and Interpretation _________________________________________________________________ Deborah Houlding Abstract The planetary rulership of terms has always been a contentious issue. Astrologers such as Ptolemy and Valens recorded the heated disagreements of their time, and demonstrated the differences between competing national ‘systems’. The Egyptian system was clearly predominant in the preserved records of classical astrologers, but by the end of the medieval period its popularity waned as support moved to the table ‘deemed worthy of record’ by the illustrious Ptolemy. Supposed to have been his preferred choice, this table of ‘Ptolemaic terms’ was later said to have settled all disagreements and to have helped standardize European technique. Even if this were true (it is not), the inconsistency by which the Ptolemaic terms are recorded makes this table the most problematic and controversial of all! What the inconsistencies are, and why they exist, is the focus of this paper. Introduction With the renewed interest in Hellenistic techniques, many modern astrologers who employ the planetary terms are choosing to adopt the older, Egyptian system, which was evidently favoured by early classical astrologers. By far the majority, however, employ the so-called ‘Ptolemaic terms’ as set out in William Lilly’s 17th century textbook Christian Astrology.1 The continued reproduction of Lilly’s text and the influence it maintains upon astrologers studying traditional techniques2 has given this particular rendering of the terms a position of such authority that even software products which allow their computation are 1 Lilly, William, Christian Astrology (London, 1647) [hereafter CA]. The terms, shown in Figure 1, are recorded on p.104.

  • Horary Astrology Was an Extremely Popular Branch of Astrology In
    Horary Astrology Horary Astrology was an extremely popular branch of astrology in Europe in times past but it still lives on as a major force in astrology today in other parts of the world. Do you need to know where those lost keys are? Then erect a chart for the time you posed the question and read off the answer. Do you need to know if you'll pass that exam? Erect the chart for the time the question occurred to you and discover the answer. Maybe a friend needs top know whether she'll get that new job or not. Erect the chart for the time you received the phone call about it and calculate the answer. Horary astrology sounds simple when you first delve into it but it is surprisingly complex. There are certain basic rules you need to adhere to, and there are less planets to consider, however, the skill, as always, lies in the exact interpretation of the chart. Classical Considerations Rulerships of the Planets Arabic Parts Arabic Points without a Time of Birth (ie. Ascendant) Fixed Stars The Houses Classical Considerations First of all, establish when the moment was that you either asked the question or received the question from another person and where you were. This is the time and place you will be basing your calculations on. Calculate your chart. Now there are several basic considerations to assess before you can continue with judgement: Is the Ascendant less than 3º or more than 27º? If the Ascendant is less tha 3º then it may be too early to reach an answer, if the Ascendant is more than 27º than it may be too late.

    b e n e b e l l w e n 溫善鈴 [email protected] www.benebellwen.com Horary Astrology Personal Divination Review Checklist Horary astrology is a form of divination using astrological charts. Think of the question you would like to present for divination and intend connection to Divinity, presenting that question to Divinity, and note the exact date, time, and location that the connection was established and question presented. Construct an astrological chart for that date, time, and location. That is the horary chart that is the divinatory answer to the question presented. The birth chart for the seeker presenting the question also needs to be constructed and will be used as a cross-reference point for assessing the horary chart. When I perform horary readings, I run through a series of review points memorialized by the following personal checklist. This set of guidelines is what I personally follow as an astrologer, per my own approach. How horary astrology is performed will, of course, vary from astrologer to astrologer. Whether traditional or modern rulerships are observed will also vary by astrologer. For more free astrology resources and downloads, please visit www.benebellwen.com.

  • Considerations About Masha´Allah´S Teachings on Horary Astrology
    Considerations about Masha´allah´s teachings on Horary Astrology Clelia Romano,DMA copyright 2008-2010 The precision of Masha´allah technique motivated me to plunge more deeply into his book On Reception. [1] After reading Bonatti, Lilly and other authors I found in Masha´allah´s teachings, the most ancient of them, few and very elaborated concepts, a safer and apparently simpler way to analyze horay charts with fine precision. The few instructions he gave to navigate in the deep and large ocean of the horary astrology seems at first simple, promising the possibility of precise delineations without taking into account Pars or Lots, fixed stars or antiscias. All we have to know are few fundamental concepts. However those concepts are not that simple. They are based in a deep understanding on receptions, translations of light and prohibitions. Clelia Romano,DMA WWW.astrologiahumana.com Reading for the first time will provide a false impression of simplicity which vanishes soon after subsequent readings. Referring its rules to our daily life as astrologers is the way to find a true revelation, a new meaning, a new way of seeing things, a new theory is present some times in an only paragraph. The study of Masha´allah´s work give us the sensation of an artist unveiling a picture. It´s only when we become conscious of the brightness, the structure and color of the object, that we understand we have had in our hands something that is really extraordinary. I realized that whenever I got wrong in my delineation it was because I missed to follow some of the master´s concepts or forgot some of them or even because I misplaced his statements.

  • The Katarche of Horary,” in the National Council for Geocosmic Research’S Geocosmic Journal, Summer 2007, Pgs
    The Katarchē of Horary Chris Brennan “ The hypothesis cannot be accepted in the total absence of corroborative evidence. ” David Pingree1 The question of the origin of horary astrology is one that has eluded the astrological community for some time now.2 Several prominent astrologers and historians of astrology have made explicit statements over the past two decades claiming that horary was a Hellenistic innovation that goes back to the earliest strata of the horoscopic astrological tradition. Indeed, this appears to be the prevailing view within the astrological community at the present time. The evidence for this claim relies almost entirely on a translation of an ancient astrological text that appears to point to the use of horary as early as the 1st century of the Common Era. This text is the astrological poem of Dorotheus of Sidon (c. 75 CE), who wrote one of the earliest works on Hellenistic astrology to have survived largely intact into the present day. The extant text is not written in its original language however, but rather the text as we have it today is an English translation of an Arabic translation of a Pahlavī (Sasanian Persian) translation of Dorotheus’ original Greek work, which was written in the form of a didactic poem. This English translation, which was published by the noted historian of science David Pingree in 1976, has been the primary source of this controversy because it makes several apparent references to interrogational (i.e. horary) astrology in the last book of the five book series, which is collectively known in Greek as the Pentateuch (‘Five Books’) or sometimes in Latin as the Carmen Astrologicum (‘Song of Astrology’).

  • Factors Which Prohibit Or Inhibit Horary Questions of Their Fulfillment
    Factors Which Prohibit or Inhibit Horary Questions of Their Fulfillment A. Strictures or blockages which render questions unanswerable: 1) The last three degrees of a sign are rising 2) The first three degrees of a sign are rising General meaning: Unanswerable because things are in a state of change. Meaning of #1: Unanswerable because it is too late. Meaning of #2: Unanswerable because it is too early. Overrides: It is an actual event. The horoscope is radical. The question is asking if it is early or late. Strong overrides to the ascendant or 1st house. 3) Saturn is in the 1st house 4) Saturn is in the 7th house General meaning: A cosmic “no” Meaning of #3: The querent is blocked, often to experience first. Meaning of #4: The agent (astrologer) is blocked for any of various reasons. Overrides: If an event, things may not have proceeded well If clear and strong radical question, the querent has needs If it is a simple yes/no question If the question is about blockage, etc. 5) The Moon is void of course Definition: 4 is void when it will not culminate a ptolemaic aspect (F,a,L,K,J) until leaving the sign it is in. Meaning: Insufficient interest in the question. Insincere question, neurotic question, nebulous question. Overrides: Radical horoscope The question is about interest. A definite answer is sought and a hazy description is ok. 6) The Moon is via combusta, i.e. between 15 Libra and 15 Scorpio Definition: Fiery way, that is many fiery fixed stars in this area Meaning: Too dangerous, too many hidden snags Overrides: [Writer has too little experience with this to say] Statements about blocks and strictures: If multiple, don’t ask this question again.
