FOREWORD
The late C C Znin Elbert Benjamine one of the most
prolific astrological writers of the present century wrote
over 50 books and thousands of magazine articles A scholar
who mastered every physical science of his time Benjamine
brought this same vigor to his exploration of the occult
Sciences
The scope of his work is so tremendous that the impact
of his influence is perhaps little understood at the present
However as New Age concepts evolve in a space oriented
environment his genius will become more widely compre
bended It is no wonder that students in pracitcally e\erj
country of the world are benefiting from his Home Study
Courses and that his works continue to be in great demand

Chapter One
LOCAL MEAN TIME IS THE DOMINANT FACTOR
The position of an object or an eventcannot be completely
defined by three dimensions When we say that a certain
individual was on the street level at the intersection of Sev-
enth and Broadway m Los Angeles, full information is not
yet at hand It was Einstein who first emphasized the im-
portance of time as the fourth dimension And the relation
of velocity to time is a significant factor m explaining the
release of planetary energies by progressed aspects which
time and indicate the probable nature of the events that will
enter a given person's life But even in such a simple matter
as locating an individual in Los Angeles, in addition to the
three dimensions—street level, Seventh Street, and Broad
way—the fourth dimension, time must be added It must be
stated he was there on a given day of a given year at a speci
fied time of day
In like manner, to locate a birth, while the surface of the
earth gives one dimension, we must ascertain the latitude
of birth— the distance north or south of the earth s equator
and the longitude of birth — the distance east or west of
Greenwich When the town or city in which, or near which,
birth took place is known, the latitude and longitude of birth
may0 be ascertained from a map or atlas They are expressed
in s and's
Latitude and longitude of birth on the surface of the
earth, however, do not completely locate the birth To these
data, which are essential to the erection of a birth chart,
must be added the year month, day of month and time of
day when the birth took place
Unfortunately for simplicity, the kind of time used in a
given locality at different periods has been made a football
of politicians At various periods they have installed differ
ent systems of recording time Yet as a correct chart cannot
be erected unless the time used at the place of birth is
known, this matter of ascertaining what kind of time was
used on a given date, while often quite complicated, is of
14 Beginner's Horoscope Maker
the utmost importance. And before any attempt is made to
erect a chart of birth, positive information should be gained
not merely as to the time of day the birth took place, but as
to the kind of time used in recording it.'
The Dominant Factor—As the astronomical data given in
the cmphemeris is calcufated for Moan Time, unless the
time of birth is given in terms of local moan time it becomes
necessary to convert the recorded time into local moan time.
Because it is necessary first to find Local Moan Time before
any of the other calculations can bo made, it is called the
DOMINANT FACTOR,
The first step in calculating any horoscope, therefore, is
to ascertain this DOMlNArTT FACTOR, or Local Moan
Time. And this necessitates a consideration of the various
systems of recording time that have been employed, and
bow to convert the time thus recorded into local moan time.
In some countries, notably Russia, the Julian Calendar'
was used up to the time of the Revolution in 1917. But
there were exceptions, as some places on the Black Sea used
the calendar of their neighbors. When, however, the date
is given Old Style, as it was reckoned in Russia, it must be
converted into the Gregorian Calendar, or Now Stylo, be-
cause the cphemeris is calculated New Style. This is done
by adding 12 days to Old Style dates occuring in the 19th
Century, and by adding 13 days to Old Style dates since
1900. Thus Josef Stalin's birth, according to his mother, oc-
curred December 21, 1879, Old Style. Adding 12 days to
this date brings us to January 2, 1880, as the date for
which his birth-chart should be erected.
Before November 18, 1883, at Noon, in the United States,
and before 1880 in Great Britain, it was customary to use
local mean time. Therefore the times of such births usually
need no conversion, for as recorded ihey represent the
DOMINANT FACTOR
Such use of focaf mean tme required that every place
having a different longitude should have a different time.
This not only was a nuisance, but as railways stretched
across the continent it became too impractical to tolerate
The clocks in dfferent longitudes might either keep identical
time, or show differences easily adjusted, Standard Time
was adopted in the United States and in most countries of
the world.
IX)cai. MHAN TIMT 15
As shown by Map 1, the United States is divided into six
Standard Time Zones each containing 15° longitude The
standard meridian for Eastern Time is 75°, or 5 hours, west,
the standard meridian for Central Time is 90°, or 6 hours
west, the standard meridian for Mountain Time is 105°,
or 7 hours west, and the standard meridian for Pacific Time
is 120°, or 8 hours, west Puerto Rico has a further zone,
called Atlantic Time, which is but 4 hours nest Hawaii
and Alaska use 150° W
Standard Time is a logical necessity in this day of swift
travel and instanoous long distance communication Nor is
there anything complicated about it The complication arose
when Daylight Saving Time was adopted in many coun-
tries during World War I It was in general use in the U S
durmg 1918 and 1919, and continued in use in some sec
tions of the country up to the date of World War II And
while Daylight Saving Time was made legal in these com
munities, it so complicated railroad schedules that the rail
roads, to conform to the time used in other localities on
their route, used Standard Time Thus for years there were
towns in the eastern U S that were using two kinds of time
During World War II, starting May 3, 1941, and lasting
to August 9, England each year used Double Summer Time,
the clock two hours ahead of Standard Time in summer, and
having it one hour ahead during the balance of the year In
the United States War Time commenced February 9, 1942,
2 00 a m and ended September 30, 1945 The clock was set
one hour ahead of Standard Time, not merely during sum
mer, but for the whole year
Daylight Saving Time in 1918 was in use in the US
from March 31 to October 27, and in 1919 from March 30
to October 26, but where continued the change date varied
When the birth is timed according to the Double Summer
Time of England, it becomes necessary to subtract two
hours from the clock to get the Standard Time When the
birth is timed according to Daylight Saving Time, or War
Time, such as was used in the US, it becomes necessary
to subtract one hour from the clock to get the Standard
Time In the years between World War I and World War
II careful inquiry should be made to be sure which time
was used in the record 1
When the time of birth is recorded in Standard Time or
^ nrctNM-.n's Honoscorr Mart*
js converted from Dn>lighl Saving or WirTjme into Stand
nrd Time b) subtracting one hour, we must next know what
Standard Time Zone was used0
Tbeorcticillv, nil places T'/S cast and west of a stand
ard meridian should keep the same time As a matter of fact,
railroad divisions and natural boundaries greatly influence
the actual place where time changes arc made Furthermore
the dividing line where such changes of time take place has
not remained constant but has shifted along with railroad
changes and the development of certain regions Map I
gives the zones and places of time change But if a birth
is near these places of time change, mucn pains should be
exercised to Icam just what time was used in recording the
birth
All of us arc aware, through listening to radio broadcasts,
that time is later in England than in the United States, and
those west of the Eastern Time Zone are aware that time
in New "York or Washington is later than it is in the other
US Time Zones For instance we on the Pacific Coast
must turn on our radios at 9 00 •» m to listen to a presiden
tnl speech given from the White House in Washington at
noon From everyday experiences we become aware that
there is a close relationship between longitude and time
One cowplevc revoluUon of the earth on vts axis which is
the time between two successive transits of the sun's semi
diameter across the same meridian measures 24 hours In
the complete revolution the 360° of geographical longitude
measuring the earth's circumference pass under the sun at
meridian Dividing 360° by 24 gives 15® that pass under
the sun at meridian every hour Dividing this hour of 60
minutes by 15 gives 4 minutes as the time required for 1°
longitude to pass under the sun at meridian
For reckoning distance on any circle a starting point must
be selected This is tme not only relative to the circle along
which geographical longitude is measured but also of the
circle along which is measured time And to use as such a
Prime Meridian from which to compute geographical longi
tude and to use as a standardized time reference in locating
the position of the heavenly bodies the longitude of Green
wicn England is considered as 0" and 0 hours and the
universally accepted starting point Any adequate map indi
cates how many degrees and minutes each important geog
1-OC.M MHAN Timh 17
nplucil area is cast or west of Greenwich And the inter
national date line (see Map 2) is 12 hours, or 180°, from
Greenn ich
As distance cast or west of Greenwich may be expressed
either in degrees or in hours and minutes of time the prcva
lent manner of locating the standard time meridians has
been to divide the world into 24 such standard time zones
each succcssnc meridian being just IS® of geographical Ion
gitudc and therefore representing just 1 hour difference in
time from the next meridian How the world and how the
U S are thus divided is shown in Maps 1 and 2
On each of these standard meridians the standard time
and the local mean time are identical But as clocks at all
points approximately IV0 both east and west of such a
standard meridian keep the local mean time of this standard
meridian since standard time came into use if the place is
either cast or west of the standard meridian the clock time
must be converted into local mean time (LMT)
Clocks west of a standard meridian are FAST Clocks east
of a standard meridian arc SLOW And as 1° longitude is
the equivalent of 4 minutes time the number of 0 east oi
west of the standard meridian may be converted into time
merely by multiplying by 4 and calling the result minutes of
time If the place is East of the standard meridian ADD the
number of minutes thus found to the standard time If the
place is West of the standard meridian SUBTRACT the
number of minutes thus found from the standard time The
result is the Local Mean Time of Birth and this is the
DOMINANT FACTOR
The Method of Presenting Examples Employed—Where this
seems advisable for the sake of greater clearness other ex
amples of the problems involved in erecting a chart will also
be given but to show in their proper sequence how to em
ploy the principles explained four complete charts repre
sentat'ivc of each candi fwn cxnfTttr&nlfencKKtttered fit acfasi
astrological practice will be erected a step at a time
The problems relating to these four example charts will
be interspersed with other examples but the problems relat
mg to each of these complete example charts wherever they
occur will be preceded by the same capital letter by which
the chart is designated and thus no difficulty will be cncoun
tered in following the steps in its erection from start to
finish. The data of the four birth-charts thus erected, and
the letters by which their problems are designated, are as
follows:
(A) November 14, 1930, 10:44 a.m. Central Europe
Standard Time (GET), Rome, Italy, Longitude 12E29,
Latitude 4IN54.
(B) November 22, 1930,2.00 a.m. Pacific Standard Time
(PST), Thrail, Calif., Longitude 122W29, Latitude 41N54.
(C) April 2, 1943, 2:10 p.m. Central Standard Time
(CST), Elmhurst, 111., Longitude 87W56, Latitude 41N54.
(3:10 p.m. Central War Time.)
(D) April 20, 1943, 11:30 p.m. Eastern Standard Time
(EST), Taunton, Mass., Longitude 71W05, Latitude 4IN54.
(12:30 p.m. Eastern War Time.)
Examples of Finding the LMT of Birth"—Instead of mul-
tiplying the difference in longitude bemeen the birthplace
and the standard meridian by 4, consult the Table of Con-
version of Longitude to Time in Part Three. This Table per-
forms the multiplication for you.
(A) The longitude of Rome is 12" E 29'. The Central
Europe Standard Meridian is 15° E. The difference is 2°
31', for which the Conversion Table gives 10' and 04". As
Rome is west of the standard meridian, the 10'and 4" must
be subtracted from the standard time of birth. A birth at
10:44 a.m. GET, Rome, gives 10.33.56 a.m. as the local
mean time of birth.
(B) The longitude of Thrail, California, is 122° W 29'.
The Pacific Standard Meridian is 120° W. The difference is
2° 29', for which the Conversion Table gives 9' and 56".
As Thrail is west of the standard meridian, 9' and 56" must
be subtracted from the standard time of birth. The birth at
2:00 a.m. PST gives 1:50:04 a.m. as the local mean time of
birth.
(C) The longitude ol Elmhurst, Illinois, is 87° W 56'.
The Central Standard Meridian is 90° W. The difference
is 2° 4', for which the Conversion Table gives 8' and 16".
As Elmhurst is east of the standard meridian, 8' and 16"
must be added to the standard time of birth. As the birth
was 2:10 p.m. CST, the local mean time of birth was 2:18:16
p.m.
(D) The longitude of Taunton, Massachusetts, is 71" W
Local Mean Time 19
05' The Eastern Standard Meridian is 75° W The difference
is 3° 55', for which the Conversion Table gives 25' and 40"
As Taunton is east of the standard meridian, 15' and 40" must
be added to standard time of birth The birth at 11 30 p m
EST gives 11 45 40 p m as the local mean time of birth
The longitude of Berlin, Germany, is 13° E 23' The Cen
tral Europe Standard Meridian is 15° E Here the differ-
ence is 1° 37', for which the Conversion Table gives 6' and
28" As Berlin is west of the standard meridian, 6' and 28"
must be subtracted from the standard time of birth That
is, if a birth was 9 10 a m GET, the local mean time was
9 03 32 a m
The longitude of Tokyo, Japan, is 139° E 45' The Jap
anese Standard Meridian is 135° E The difference is 4°
45', for which the Conversion Table gives 19 As Tokyo is
east of the standard meridian, 19' must be added to the
standard time of birth Thus if a birth occurred at I 15 pm
JST, the local mean time of birth, or Dominant Factor, was
1 34 00 p m
The longitude of New York is 73° W 57' The Eastern
Standard Meridian is 75° W The difference is 1° 03' for
which the Conversion Table gives 4' and 12 ' As New York
is east of the Standard Meridian, 4' and 12" must be added
to the standard time of birth If a birth took place at 2 00
a m EST, it took place at 2 04 12 a m local mean time
The longitude of Washington, D C , is 77° W 01' The
Eastern Standard Meridian is 75° W The difference is 2°
01', for which the Conversion Table gives 8 and 4" As
Washington is west of the standard meridian, 8' and 4"
must be subtracted from the standard time of birth An
event that took place in Washington at exactly noon EST
would have a local mean time of 11 51 56 a m
The longitude of Los Angeles is 118° W 15' The Pacific
Standard Meridian is 120° W The difference is 1° 45', for
which the Conversion Table gives 7 As Los Angeles is east
of the standard meridian, 7' must be added to the standard
time of birth to get the local mean time A birth that took
place at 11 45 p m PST, took place at 11 52 00 p m local
mean time
Tables Needed for Erectmp a Horoscope—To erect a chan
of birth or any horoscope, in addition to the data supplied
to the astrologer, only two things are required. One is a Ta-
ble of Houses for the latitude of the place, and the other is
an ephemeris for the year of birth.
EPHEMERIDES: To ascertain the position of the plan-
ets, an ephemeris for the year of birth is required. An ephem-
eris, unlike a Table of Houses, if for one year, will not do for
some other year. The most economical method is to pur-
chase the Astrologer's Ephemerides (A-P Ephemerides),
which may be had in convenient volumes each containing
all the positions each day for ten years. These cover the
years 1880 to 1950. There is also a thirty-year volume, cov-
ering years 1850 to 1880. TTie A-P volumes, which end with
the year 1949, are the American Edition of Die Deutsche
Ephemeride, which are still available for the years 1950
through 1970.
The ephemerides used in astrology are calculated from
the government ephemerides — of which the American
Ephemeris and Nautical Almanac is the one published by
the Nautical Almanac Office, U.S. Naval Observatory, and
sold by the Superintendent of Documents, Washington,
D.C. While the true declinations of the planets and the true
longitude of the sun and moon are given, the longitude posi-
tions of the planets are not given. Instead, which is more
convenient for navigation, the positions of the planets are
given in hours, minutes and seconds of Right Ascension.
The astrological ephemeris makers convert this, by means
of tables made for that purpose, into celestial longitude,
which is expressed as signs, degrees and minutes.
Now before the volume of 1925, the planetary and other
positions given in the government ephemeris were for noon.
But changing observatory practice and other practical con-
siderations caused the astronomers to change this long estab-
lished custom in favor of the civil day which begins at mid-
night, twelve hours before mean noon of the same day.
Thus Greenwich Civil Time, which because of its present
universal use by astronomers is now called Universal Time,
Is twelve hours before Greenwich Mean Noon of the same
date.
Beginning with the year 1925, the government ephem-
erides count the day as from midnight, as is the custom in
our ordinary walks of life, instead of from noon to noon as
Local Mean Time 21
previously had been done, and the positions of the planets
since 1925 have been given in the government ephemendes
for zero hour (midnight)
Every additional computation makes the necessity of
checking against slight error more imperative And because
this avoids the necessity of making a computation for the
intervening 12 hour interval when converting the Right
Ascension of the planets as given in the government ephem-
ens into zodiacal longitude, and because to give precision
in computing the places after such a 12 hour interval the
troublesome factor of Acceleration must be included—which
is usually neglected by the makers of ephemendes for
astrological purposes—commencing with the year 1931, the
makers of the A P Ephemendes and Die Deutsche Ephem-
ende have followed the example of the astronomers and
given the various positions at Greenwich Zero Hour (mid-
night), which is Universal Time
In using these highly precise A P Ephemendes therefore,
it must be remembered that preceding and including the
year 1930, the positions are given for Greenwich Noon, but
that since that year they are given for Greenwich Zero
Hour In the example charts which follow, two charts are
erected from the A P noon ephemens, the two pages of
which for November, 1930, are reproduced in Part Three,
ASTROLOGICAL TABLES Furthermore two charts are
erected from the A P Zero hour ephemens, the two pages of
which for April, 1943, are also reproduced in Part Three,
ASTROLOGICAL TABLES 11
TABLES OF HOUSES A table of houses is perpetual and
good for all years, but the table must cover approximate!)
the geographical latitude of birth Near the equator, differ
ences are small, and therefore a table which is 10 removed
from the latitude of birth is close enough, which means that
if tables cover every 2° that is sufficient But as higher lati
tudes are reached the differences are greater, and the table
should cover every degree of latitude
Until the A P Tables of Houses were published the avail
able tables covered only certain latitudes in one hook, and
other latitudes in other books To get all latitudes for which
such tables are of practical use thus required the purchase
of several volumes For reasons that involve the peculiar
performance of planets in reference to rising and setting as
the land of the midnight sun is approached, charts in lati-
tudes above 67° present special problems, and cannot con-
veniently be handled in the ordinary way by recourse of a
table of houses. But the A-P Tables of Houses, in addition
to being economical, contain tables suitable for use in all
latitudes in which such tables can be made of value. They
run from the equator to 66° North Latitude; and contain
instructions for easily using them to erect charts in South
Latitudes. In Part Three of this book will be found repro-
duced from the A-P Table of Houses the two pages cover-
ing latitude 41° 54' north, at which latitude the births
took place for which the four example charts of this book
are erected.
TABLE OF PROPORTIONAL LOGARITHMS: Either
for erecting a chart of birth or for calculating progressed
aspects the only mathematical ability necessary is that re-
quired in adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing. The
multiplying ana dividing is employed in solving simple prob-
blems in proportion by the RULE OF THREE such as is
taught in grammar school.
In a proportion the two end numbers are called the
extremes ana the two intermediate numbers are called the
means The Rule of Three is: If three known numbers are
related proportionally, the product of the two of the same
kind divided by the third gives the fourth member of the
proporiion. Therefore, if the extremes are known, divide
their product by the known mean, and the quotient is the
desired unknown term. And if the means arc known, divide
their product by the known extreme, and the quotient is the
desired mean.
Thus on a dav when the Sun moves (a) 59' in the zodiac,
suppose we wisn to know how many minutes (b) it will
move in (d) 7 hours, 25 minutes. 24 x 60 minutes (one
hour) gives (c) 1440 minutes in one day. 7 x 60 minutes,
plus 25 minutes, gives (d) 445 minutes. The proportion
then is:
59: ? :: 1440 ; x 445. 59 x 445 gives 26255. 26255 divided
by 1440 gives 18'as the distance the Sun travels.
Now mathematicians have devised a table of proportional
logarithms based on always considering 1440 minutes (one
day) as the (c) term of the proportion.
IvOC.m. Mean Time 23
With this table problems in proportion involving 24 hours
as one term con be solved merely by addition or subtraction.
To find the distance a planet travels during a given inter-
val (b) the logarithm of the (d) interval is merely added
to the logarithm of the (a) daily motion of the planet. Such
use of logarithms lessens the work and makes for precision.
Turn to the table of logarithms given in Part Three of this
book and observe how the problem above worked by propor-
tion more quickly is handled by logarithms thus:
Log. (a) 1.3875 0° 59' daily motion of Sun
Log. (d) .5100 7h 25m add interval
Log. (b) I 8975 0° 18' distance Sun travels
Chapter Two
PLACING THE SIGNS ON THE HOUSES
The zenith of on observer, the point directly overhead,
traces a circle in the sky due to the eastward rotation of the
earth. For convenience, and to avoid technicalities, let us
call this circle, parallel to the circle along which right ascen-
sion is measured, the mundane circle. And it is important,
for from it arc located the houses of a horoscope, the Mun-
dane Houses.
But there is also a second important circle, the circle in
the sky apparently followed by the sun in its annual journey,
which marks the center of a narrow belt along which all the
planets apparently travel. This belt is called the zodiac, and
the circle followed by the sun is called the ecliptic. The posi-
tions of the planets as recorded in an ephemeris are given
as they appear along this annual path of the sun.
Thus all the planets have two important apparent mo-
tions. They have a clockwise apparent motion that carries
each from the Ascendant to the Midheaven, to the Descend-
ant, to the l.C. and back to the Ascendant again each day.
The sun thus is seen to rise in the morning, to reach the
Midheaven at noon, to disappear below the Descendant in
the evening, and to appear again on the Ascendant on the
moming on the next day. All of the planets perform a simi-
lar daily journey. And in which house of the horoscope
each planet has thus arrived in this clockwise daily journey
is very important; for it indicates both the volume of energy
the planet is able to deliver, and the department of life it
influences.
But all the planets also have a slower counter-clockwise
motion through the zodiac. While being swiftly carried
clockwise by the diurnal rotation of the earth, they are
slowly moving counter-clockwise along the zodiacal circle.
Their position on this circle is plotted In the ephemeris for
each day.
In erecting a horoscope, therefore, we have calculations to
make relative to two different circles; the circle of mundane
houses, and the circle of the zodiac.
Signs on the Houses 25
Now both the mundane circle and the zodiacal circle are
divided into segments of 30 degrees each As a circle has 360
degrees there are thus 12 segments on each of the two cir
cles Fach such 30 degree segment of the mundane circle is
called a House, and each 30 degree segment of the zodiac is
called a Sign
The positions of the planets as given in an ephemens
show them to have a longitude of so many degrees and mm
utes in a certain sign That is, their positions are plotted
in the ephemens along the circle w hich is the .apparent an-
nual path of the sun But that does not indicate whether
thet are above the horizon, below the horizon, half way up
to the midheaven in an easterly direction, or how else they
may be located relative to the observer on e*irth To ascer
tain this, the position of the zodiacal circle in reference to
the mundane circle must be calculated
In astrology the position of a planet relative to each of
these circles is important The tone quality of each planet is
influenced b> the sign of the zodiac it is in, that is, in which
of the 30 degree segments along the apparent annual path
of the sun it is found Also the Harmony or discord mapped
by a given planet, and therefore the fortune-attracting or
misfortune-attracting desires of the thought cells within the
Human soul that it maps, is revealed by the aspects it re
ccives from other planets, and these are determined, with
the exception of the parallel .aspect, from the number of
degrees this planet is removed from other planets along this
zodiacal circle which is the apparent annual path of the sun
Also, each aspect a planet receives increases its prominence,
which means that it indicates the thought cells within the
soul which it maps have that much more energy with which
to work *
chapter One of BEGINNER'S HOROSCOPE READER
sets forth the significance of the Sun m each of the twelve
zodiacal signs, and Chapter Two of that Part sets forth the
significance of the Ascendant, the Moon, and each of the
eight planets in each of the twelve zodiacal signs And as
pointed out in Chapter Three of that Part, where the sig-
nificance of the aspects between each two planets is given,
only an ephemens for the year of birth is required to ascer
tain all the aspects between the planets, with the possible
exception of aspects involving the Moon For the day of
2G UrnvNFn's Honoscorp Makfr
birth the sign nnd degree they occup} nro given in such an
ephemens, nnd uith the possible exception of the Moon,
these positions along the circle representing the apparent
path of the sun, which is called the 2od!ac, arc all that is
needed to ascertain all the aspects between the planets
But while the tone qualitv of the influence of a planet,
and Its harmon> and discord, cin thus be ascertained from
Its position in the zodncil circle, the department of life
chicflj influenced by the thought colls it maps, and the vol-
ume of onorgN possessed by these thought cells, can only
be asccrtnlnca when Its position relative to the mundane
circle is known As pointed out in Chapter Four of BEGIN-
NER'S HOROSCOPE READER, where the significance of
each planet in each house is pwen, it is the position of the
planet relative to the circle from which are mapped the
Mundane Ileuses that reveals for events and conditions of
fccting whit department of life the thought-cells mapped by
a planet will work
If you will step outdoors and face the south from time to
time nnd witch the sun, moon, planets and stars, the rela
tion of the two circles, both of which must be used to plot
astrological positions will become clear To us in northern
latitudes the circle of the zodiac, which the sun follows, and
from which the moon and planets never stray more than a
few degrees, is always to the south You will note that the
sun, moon and planets rise in an easterly direction, arch up
to the highest point while somewhat south of the zenith
and then set in a westerly direction This clockwise appar
ent motion of stars and planets is due to the earth turning
eastward on its axis
The eastern horizon of the earth is called the Ascendant
abbreviated Asc, the western horizon is called the Descend
ant, the meridian of the observer, that is a circle passing
through the poles of the earth and the zenith is the Mia
heaven, abbreviated M C and the point opposite the mid
heaven is the IC A circle passing directly eastward from
the zenith cuts the Ascendant the I C, the Descendant and
again readies the Midheaven at the zenith point From this
circle are mapped the Mundane Houses
This mundane circle is divided into four quadrants by
the Ascendant IC Descendant and Midheaven And while
in all geographical latitudes a heavenly body in its appar
ent daily circle about the earth reaches the midheaven at
the same moment, and reaches the nadir at the same mo-
ment, the times uhen it appears above the Ascendant, and
disappears below the Descendant are greatly influenced by
the latitude of the observer In other words, whether a plan-
et is above or below the Ascendant or Descendant at the
time of birth may well be determined by the latitude on the
earth where the birth took place See diagram of Mundane
Houses, Part Three
Not only is it important to know whether or not, and
how far, a planet is above or below the Ascendant or De
scendant, but whether or not, and how far, it is within
or without one of the three equal divisions of each of the
mentioned quadrants Each of the equal divisions thus ascer
tamed from the circle about the earth at a given geographi-
cal latitude is called a Mundane House
Now the zodiacal circle is inclined to the earth's equator
at an angle of about 23,A0 But its inclination to the circle
passing directly eastward through the zenith, from which
the houses are ascertained, varies with each degree of geog-
raphical latitude And thus to ascertain the exact degree of
the zodiac on each of the cusps, or partions, which divide
the mundane circle into 12 equal segments, or houses, re
course is had to a table of houses
Ephemens Sidereal Time—To measure along a circle a
starting point is necessary The starting point for measur-
ing geographical longitude is Greenwich, England The
starting point for measuring along the mundane circle is the
Midheaven The starting point for measuring along the cir-
cle of the zodiac is that point in the sky, called the vernal
equinox, where the sun crosses from south to north dechna
tion and thus changes polarity each spring
Now the time that has elapsed since the point of the \er-
nal equinox, where the zodiacal circle commences, was on
the midheaven, which marks the starting point of what is
here called the mundane circle, is the sidereal time The
sidereal time, therefore, shows exactlj what sign and de-
gree of the zodiac are on the midhcaen It thus brings the
two circles — the zodiacal circle and what we here call the
mundancc circle—into coincidence at one point
The ephemens shows the sidereal time either for noon or
midnight That is it indicates what sign and degree of the
30 BrciNNrH's IIonoscorE Mak£«
Problem in order to apply the 9.8Gs correction for sidereal
time.
Finding the Equitalent Greenuick Mean Time Intenal
(F.GMTl) is the Second Key Problem—As explained in Chap-
ter One, each degree of geographical longitude is the equiva-
lent of 4 minutes time. Therefore the number'of degrees of
geographical longitude a place is cast or west of Green-
wich can be converted into minutes of time merely by mul-
tiplying by 4. If the place is west of Greenwich, this differ-
ence in time must be added to the Local Mean Time
(DOMINANT FACTOR) to get the EGMT. If the place
is cast of Greenwich, this difference in time must be sub-
tracted from the Local Mean Time (DOMINANT FAC-
TOR) to get the EGMT.
The Equivalent Greenwich Mean Time thus found is
then a given number of hours and minutes after or before
the noon or zero hour for which the ephemeris is computed.
If the EGMT of birth is p.m., it already represents the re-
quired plus EGMTI if a noon ephemeris is used. If a zero
hour (midnight) ephemeris is used, it must be added to 12
hours to get the required plus EGMTI. For the sake of
greater precision in using the zero hour ephemeris it is bet-
ter to subtract the p.m. EGMT from 12 hours and use the
result as a minus EGMTI on the next day.
If the Equivalent Greenwich Mean Time of birth is a.m ,
and a noon ephemeris is used, it must be subtracted from
12 hours to get the required minus EGMTI. If a zero hour
(midnight) ephemeris is used, it already represents the re-
quired plus EGMT Interval.
To apply these rules, let's find the EGMT of the four ex-
ample charts To find the difference between the birthplace
and Greenwich consult the Table of Comersion of Longitude
to Time in Part Three.
Example: What is the time difference between Washing-
ton, D G., and Greenwich? Washington is 77" W 01'. In
Table, in degree11column, find 77. The time shown is 5h 8m.
In minute cob-" " find Im (of longitude). This corresponds
to 4s of time.
5h 08m 00s 77° long,
add Oh 00m 04s 0T Jong.
5h 08h 04s. Washington is W. of Greenwich
Signs on the Houses 3j
Using this method the following examples show how to
find the EGMTI of the four example charts
(A) lOh 33m 56s a m LMT of birth
49m 56s subtract for 12 E 29 long
9h 44m 00s am EGMT

(B ) Ih 50m 04s am LMT of birth

lOh 00m 00s EGMT

lOh 00m 00s subtract EGMT
2h 00m 00s Minus EGMTI
(G) 14h I8m 16s LMT of birth (I2h added)
5h 51m 44s add for 87W56 long
20h 10m 00s EGMT and EGMTI due to
zero hour ephemens
(D) 23h 45m 40s LMT of birth (I2h added)
4h 44m 20s add for 71W05 long
28h 30m 00s EGMT and EGMTI due to
zero hour ephemens
The results in these four examples represent an interval
of time difference between the clock at the birth place and
the clock at Greenwich This actual time span is used to cai
culate the Limiting Date (L D ) as well as the 9 86s correc
tion in the First Key Problem Your easiest guide to keeping
these figures straight is a Student Chart Blank sold by The
Church of Light The four example Charts at the beginning
of the next chapter have been calculated on these blanks
The Limiting Date appears on the last line of this blank
While the mathematics of progressing the horoscope right
fully belongs in more advanced work, the beginner will find
it easy to calculate the L D as he leams to erect a chart
zodiac are on the midheaven at noon or midnight, as the
case may be. Each hour and minute of clock time after noon
or midnight increases the sidereal time by that interval; and
each hour and minute before noon or midnight decreases
the sidereal time by an equivalent interval. Therefore, to
find the sidereal time of birth, we must find the local mean
time interval to or from noon or midnight, according to
which is used in the ephemeris, and add or subtract this
interval to or from the sidereal time given in the ephemeris.
Finding the Sidereal Time of Birth is the First Key Problem
—First we must find the local mean time interval from noon
or zero hour the birth took place. If the local mean time of
birth (DOMINANT FACTOR) is p.m., it already repre-
sents the required plus INTERVAL if a noon ephemeris is
used. If a zero hour (midnight) ephemeris is used, it must
be added to 12 hours to get the required plus interval. For
the sake of greater precision in using the zero hour ephem-
eris it is better to subtract p m. LMT from 12 hours and use
the result as a minus LMT interval on the next day.
If the local mean time of birth (DOMINANT FACTOR)
is a.m. and a noon ephemeris is used, it must be subtracted
from 12 hours to get the required minus interval. If a zero
hour (midnight) ephemeris is used, it already represents
the required plus LMT Interval.
(A) Using the noon ephemeris, to get the LMT Interval
for a birth that took place 10.33:56 a.m. LMT, merely sub-
tract lOh 33m 56s from noon. This gives minus Ih 26m
04s as the required LMT Interval.
(B) Using the noon ephemeris, to get the LMT Interval
for a birth that took place 1:05.04 a.m. LMT, we merely
subtract Ih 50m 04s from noon. This gives minus lOh 09m
56s as required LMT Interval.
(C) When using the zero hour ephemeris to calculate
p.m. charts, it is necessary to add 12 hours to the given time,
keeping in mind the 24-hour day. A birth that took place
at 2:18:16 p.m. LMT would give a I4h I8m I6s LMTI, as
a result of adding 12 hours. (AM. births do not require the
12-hour addition. The given LMT is merely considered as
a plus LMTI.)
(D) Using the zero hour ephemeris, to get the LMTI
for a birth that took place 11:45-40 p m. LMT, we merely
add 12 hours to arrive at a plus 23h 45m 40s LMTI.

PROBLEM BY LOGS: To multiply by logarithms we
add logarithms; and to divide, we subtract. Convert A, B
and C to Logs, Log B minus Log A equals Basic Log (to be
used on all cusp corrections) plus Log C equals Log D.
Convert Log D into minutes and seconds of longitude.
TO CORRECT: Add D to cusp given in Tables of Houses
if nearest sidereal time is smaller than True Sidereal Time;
if larger, subtract D.
As all four example charts are for the exact latitude of
410 N 54', no further cusp correction is necessary. "Ihe cal-
culation of house cusps of charts in other exact latitudes
than those given in a Tables of Houses can be computed by
applying the information at the end of this chapter.
Before using the Tables of Houses in Part Three, you can
speed your work by first becoming familiar with the infor-
mation it contains and the format in which it is presented.
Notice the Sidereal Time column that runs all the way
from Oh Om Os at the top left comer down to 24h Om Os at
the bottom right comer of the second page.There are twelve
sections. Follow the sequence of hours from the first page
to the next page until you comprehend it.
The number of house cusps are noted across the top of
each section of the Tables of Houses. 10 stands for the 10th
house cusp (or Midheaven), and Ascen stands for the 1st
house cusp or Ascendant. The other house cusps (11, 12,
2, and 3) are also there. The sign of the zodiac appears
below the house-cusp number, and below that are degrees.
(Watch carefully for sign changes in the body of the Table.
For instance, see the 11th cusp for S.T. Ih 25m 6s, where
it changes to 0° Gemini 00'.)
Only the sign and degree on each of the cusps of the six
eastern houses are given in a table of houses. The opposite
house cusp is always occupied by the same degree of the
opposite sign. A table of signs and their opposites is given
on page 8.
When, as often is the case, the same sign is found on
more than one house cusp, certain signs are found missing
after copying from the table of houses. These may be found
by counting the signs in their regular order; and they should
be placed in the map in the middle of those houses where
they fall by their natural sequence in the zodiac. These are
called intercepted signs.
Correcting the house cusps for Chart (A):
A. 14h 06m 59s nearest S.T.

TO CORRECT: As the nearest ST is larger than the
True S.T of Birth, the correction (D.) is subtracted 31'
from 4° Scorpio 00' (or 3° 60') gives the True Midheaven
(10th cusp) for Chart (A) as 3° Scorpio 29'.
In this particular case, an inspection of theTables of
Houses shows that cusps 11, 12, 2, and 3 are also 1° dif-
ference (C). Therefore, 31' is subtracted from each of these
cusp positions given for the nearest S.T. to birth in the
Tables of Houses. These corrected cusps are shown in Chart
(A) in the next chapter.
Ascendant correction for Chart (A):
C. 8° Capricorn 24' nearest Asc
7° Capricorn 27' subt. next nearest Asc.

C. 1.4025 add
D. 1.6943 correction, 29'
TO CORRECT: As the nearest S.T. is larger than the
True S.T. of Birth, the correction (D.) is subtracted. 29'
from 8° Capricorn 24' (or 1° 84') gives the True Ascendant
for Chart (A) as 7° Capricorn 55'.
Following this pattern, see if jou can correct the cusps on
the other three example charts, and then check the correct
figures on0 the illustrations in the next chapter.
The 41 N 54' Tables of Houses exactly matched the Birth
latitude of all four example charts. However, a birth occur-
ring at any other degree and minute of latitude w«uld re-
quire another tables of houses. Furthermore, if the latitude
of birth were not given in the tables of houses but fell in
between two latitudes given there, an additional correction
of house cusps would be necessary. This problem is calcu-
lated in the following manner after the zodiacal correction
described above is finished.
CORRECTION FOR PRECISE LATITUDE
A. Difference between nearest and next nearest Latitude
to that of birth in Tables of Houses,
B. Difference between nearest Latitude in Tables of

seconds of longitude.)
TO CORRECT: Add D to house cusps determined in aodi-
acal correction above if the nearest Latitude is smaller than
the True Latitude; if larger, subtract D,
South Latitude—Tables or houses for north latitude may be
used for places in south latitude by adding I2h to the S.T.
and using the degree thus found, but placing opposite signs
on the house cusps. A detailed example of this will be found
on page 3 of the AP TABLES OF HOUSES,

daily motion (a) of the plunot between the two successive
days within which the (d) EGMT Interval occurs should
first be ascertained. From this by the proportion (a) ; ?
;; (minutes in a day) : (d) the oistance the pianet
travels during the EGMTJ is found. This distance, added
to or subtracted from, the planet's position in the ephem-
cris on the given day gives the sign, degree and minute
occupied by the planet nt birth.
In actual practice, the distance the more slowly moving
planets travel during the given dav may be ascertained by
inspection. As the EGMT Interval is approximately a cer-
tain fraction of the day, the planet's travel during the
EGMT Interval Is approximately the same fraction of its
daily travel. And in actual practice the proportion to find
how far the faster moving planets move during the EGMT
Interval is more readily handled, as explained in Chapter
One, through the use of proportional logarithms. To Log.
(a) add Log. (d). The sum is the Log. (b) of the planet's
travel during the EGMT Interval.
Calculating All Planetary Positions in Chart (A) The
EGMT Interval (d) has been found to be minus 2h 16m.
The logarithm of 2h 16m (see Table Proportional Logari-
thms in Part III) is 1.0248. This is called tnc Constant Log-
boeausc it is one of the logarithms that will be used in lind-
ing the distance traveled by each planet foe chart (A).

tract 1/12 of the daily motion of each from its position in
the cphcmcris on November 14, 1930.

Finding the Sign, Degree and Minute Occupied by Each
Planet at Birth is the Final Problem—This requires that the
44 UrciNNnn's Honoscorr. Maker
crcd until 1930, moves less than 2 degrees in the zodiac per
year, this enables its position to be ascertained within less
than V* degree, which is close enough for purposes of deline-
ating a birth-chart. When progressed aspects arc calculated
to tnis planet it is better to have its position as precisely
as possible. INFLUENCE OF THE FLA NET PLUTO'; IN-
CLUDING EPHEMERIS OF PLUTO 1840 to 1960, gives
the position of this planet each month from 1840 to 1940;
and once a year from 1940 to 1960. The positions given in
that book for October, November and December, 1930 are:
Day Month
19. X. 20°o Cancer 53' Declination 21°0 N 53'
18. XI. 20 Canccr44' Declination21 N57'
18. XII. 20° Cancer 16' Declination 22° N03'
Hero we find that Pluto retrograded 9' in the 30 days be-
tween October 19 and November 18. From Nov. 14 to Nov.
19 is 4 days. Then 9 (a) x 4 (d) give 36, 36 divided by 30
c) gives I' as the movement of Piuto during 4 days. Add
' to the position of Pluto on Nov. 18—20° Cancer 44'—
and it gives the position of Pluto on Nov. 14, 1930, as 20°
Cancer 45'R.
Declinations—For each chart, in addition to the zodiacal
positions, the declinations of each planet, the M C. and the
Asc. should be calculated. Declination of a planet, the M.C.,
or the Asc. is its angular distance north or south of the
celestial equator. As the movement by declination is so slow,
those of the more slowly moving planets may be copied from
the ephemeris, or be ascertained merely by inspection. The
declination of the Moon should be calculated by logarithms,
just as in calculating the zodiacal position of a planet. It
should be noted that when a planet moves from north decli-
nuation to south decimation, or from south declination to
north declination, the daily motion is not to be had by sub-
tracting the smaller decimation from the greater, as other-
wise is the case, but is the sum of the north declination and
the south declination as recorded in the ephemeris.
Other than the Sun and the Moon the declinations are
given every third day in the AP Ephemeris. The daily mo-
tion of a planet, therefore, is found by dividing the differ
ence between its two successive positions by 3
The M.C and Asc always have the same declination as

The M.C. of birth is 3 Scorpio 29. Using the table of
Dedinaiiaix of Angles in Part III, look to second column
under Scorpio, and go down to 3 and 4 degrees. Answer
must appear between corresponding declinations of 12:31
and 12:52. The interval sought is 29'. 29' is half a degree,
thus half the difference between 12:31 and 12,52 is 10'. The
10' must be added to 12-31, and the answer is a declination
of 12S4I. (S, found at the head of column, indicates South
Declination.)
The birth Asc. is 7 Capricorn 55. See third column in
Table and go down to 7 and 8 degrees under Capricorn.
We find a difference in declination (between 23 16 and
23:12) of 4'. The Asc. falls 5', 1/12°, short of 8 Capricorn
4 divided by 12 equals zero. No correction is necessary. The
declination of the Asc. is 23S12.
Calculating All Planetary Paiitiaas m, Chart (B) — The

Tlierein it is indicated that the most unchangeable factor
of all arc the characteristics of the energy of the thought-
cells which each planet maps. The nature of these unchang-
ing characteristics of each planet arc set forth in the first
two chapters.
It is also indicated that resonance of the tone, but not
the pitch, of the energy of the thought-cells mapped by a
planet is indicated by the sign the planet occupies. There-
fore, in the first two chapters the significance of each planet
in each sign is considered.
Then, in Chapter Four, after explaining that the house
occupied by n planet has significance relative to the amount
of thought-cell activity mapped, and that the thought-cells
mapped by a house indicate the department of life affected
by tne activity of the thought-cells thus mapped, the sig-
nificance of each planet in each house is set forth.
While Chapter Five of that Part explains how to judge
the most important phases of a life from the chart. Chapter
Three explains that the power of a group of thought-cells
mapped by a planet is indicated not merely by its house
position, but by the aspects the planet receives. The more
numerous and the more powerful the aspects the planets
receive, house position remaining the same, the more active
the thought-cells thus mapped, and therefore the more Im-
portant the events thev arc able to bring into the life, and
the more importantly they arc able to influence the thoughts
and behavior. And in the same chapter, after explaining that
the desires of the thought-cells for fortunate events are
mapped by harmonious aspects, and their desires for unfor-
tunate events are mapped oy discordant aspects, the signfi-
cance of aspects between each two planets is explained.
Thus BEGINNER'S HOROSCOPE READER while In-
dicating how to find the significance of any single position
or relation in a chart, and how to judge any significant
phases of the life ss indicated hy birth predispositions, does
not attempt to indicate how to go about it to give a com-
plete reading of a chart. Yet to become truly proficient fn
giving such readings, not only must it constantly be borne
In mind that the specific thing indicated by any one posi-
tion or relation In a chart may be completely nullified or
changed by some other position or relation in the chart, but
that to avoid overlooking important indications some defi-
Unifying the Hohoscope 63
nite system of taking up the various factors should be se-
lected and invariably followed.
In formulating such a system to be followed it should be
home in mind that in proportion to their degree of activity
will the thought-cells mapped by a planet or by a house be
able to affect the thoughts, the behavior and the events
attracted. And that the activity of the thought-cells mapped
by a planet are indicated by two different factors; by the
house the planet is in, and by the aspects the planet receives.
First, Fourth, Seventh and Tenth are angular houses. The
thought-cells they map have very powerful energy.
Second, Fifth, Eighth and Eleventh are succedent houses.
Third, Sixth, Ninth and Tuelfth are cadent houses.
The old rule is that succedent houses map less energy
than angular houses, and cadent houses map less energy
than succedent houses. But modem investigation indicates
that greater precision is gained by substituting for this gen-
eral rule the following:
Eighth, Ninth, Eleventh and Tuelfth houses map thought-
cells having moderately powerful energy.
Second and Third houses map thought-cells having feeble
energy.
Fifth and Sixth houses map thought-cells having very fee-
ble energy.
Thus planets in the angular houses are always considered
prominent; but planets in the other houses are not consid-
ered prominent unless they aspect within a reasonable de-
gree of closeness Sun, Moon or Mercury, or are otherwise
very powerfully aspected As every aspect to a planet indi-
cates a stellar aerial which picks up energy of the quality
of the two planets involved, and delivers it to the thought-
cells mapped by these planets, numerous and powerful
aspects to it indicate greater energy of the tought-cells It
maps.1
Each planet maps a dynamic stellar structure; but dis-
tinct from these most active thought-cells are those less vig-
orous and less well organized thought-cells mapped by a
house of the birthchart which are called common thought-
cells. The volume of activity they possess, and therefore their
power to channel the behavior and the thoughts into expres-
sions related to the department of life mapped by the house,
and their ability to attract events relative to this department

Adding 2' to 20° N 30' (its declination Nov. 19,1943) gives

As Uranus increases its declination by only 2' between

planets in the four example charts will make it dear in
which house each planet should be placed And placing the
filancls in the correct houses is extremely important, as the
louse position determines which of the 12 departments of
life will be chiefly influenced by the thought-cells mopped
by the planet.
Chapter Four
UNIFYING THE HOROSCOPE
Astrology is the science of finding and utilizing the nat-
ural potentialities as indicated in the planetary chart of
birth Therefore, when the chart has been erected after the
manner indicated in the first three chapters of this book,
there still remain the problems of determining whatpredis
positions it maps, when these predispositions are IiKely to
express in events, and what precautionary actions should
be taken to make the events that actually happen more for-
tunate than they would have been had astrological knowl-
edge been unavailable
The predispositions indicated express as actual events only
at those times when the thought cells receive accessory en
ergy through progressed aspects to the planets mapping the
given predisposition Except for those which affect the
health, determining such periods and what is most apt to
happen during them, and selecting the proper precautionary
actions, are amply treated in the two books, PROGRESSED

AND WHAT EVENTS WILL HAPPEN Determining
the predispositions where health is concerned, the periods
when definite health difficulties are apt to develop, and the

of life, nrc shown by the prominence of the plnnct ruling
the house-cusp.
While a planet in a house represents thought-cells more
active than those of a vacant house whose cusp it rules, a
planet actually in a house, hut having a few weak aspects,
may not map thought-cells as active asthecommon thought-
cells of some vacant house whose planetary ruler is power-
ful by position and makes powerful aspects. Thus in judg-
ing the thought-cell activity of a given house, not only the
aspects of any planet in the house must be considered, but
also the aspects and prominence of the planet ruling the
cusp of the house; for It maps the volume of activity of the
common thought-cells.
A planet actually in a house is considered the chief ruler
of the house, and the planet ruling its cusp is considered co-
rnier. When there are more than one planet in a house, the
planet nearest the cusp of the house it is in is commonly
considered chief ruler, and the other planets, along with
the ruler of the house cusp arc considered co-rulers. The
power a planet thus exercises in a house, however, is also
influenced by the strength of the aspects it receives. But
the nearer a planet is to the house-cusp, other things being
equal, the greater the volume of energy It maps. Thus a
planet only 5 degrees below the Ascendant commonly maps
much more thought-cell energy than a planet yet in the
first house but 25 degrees below the Ascendant.
In considering any horoscope it is desirable at once to
appraise the power of the chart as a whole. If many planets
are in angles, especially if they are also powerfully aspected,
the thought-cells have sufficient energy that outstanding
things may be expected from the individual. At least this
indicates enough tnought-cell energy present to attract out-
standing events.
But whether or not the chart indicates, by angular plan-
ets and planets heavdy aspected, a life of momentous events,
or an individual of unusual talents, it indicates that which
is of supreme importance to the individual, and that which,
in so far as this individual is concerned, is of supreme im-
portance to society. It reveals the predispositions, whatever
they may be It maps the equipment which he must use to
attain his ends. And rightly considered it sh»ws him how
best he can employ this equipment not only to benefit him-
Unifying the Horoscope 65
self, but also to benefit all mankind and further the pur-
poses of Deity.
However Jacking in thought-ceJJ energy the individual
may be, or however replete with thought-cell energy, his
natural apitudes—such as they are—and the more impor-
tant events that do enter his life, as well as his more impor-
tant thoughts and behavior, will bear the characteristics of
the most prominent planets. And the departments of life
which will be most significant will be those indicated by
the most active houses of his chart. In other words, the rela-
tive importance of events characteristic of each planet tends
to be indicated by the relative prominence of the various
planets, and the relative importance of each department
of life tends to be indicated by the relative activity of the
houses. And as important things should come first, the
initial appraisal of the chart should note the most promi-
nent planets and the most active houses.
Yet of the characteristics ruled by the most prominent
planets in his chart, the ones the individual habitually ex-
presses in his thoughts and behavior, and the specific na-
ture of the events of these planetary types which come into
his life, are powerfully influenced by Conditioning, that is,
by his reactions to such specific experiences as have been
afforded by his environment in the past. Either environ-
mental conditions or deliberate training based on astrologi-
cal knowledge may develop a habit-system on the part of
the thought-cells to satisfy their desires through certain
events of their planetary type and not through other events
of their pJanetaiy type And either through deliberate train-
ing or through the resistance of environment to events relat-
ing to one department of life and facilities in the environ-
ment for events relating to another department of life, the
thought-cells may acquire the habit of satisfying their de-
sires through events ruled by one house far more frequently
than through events ruled by another house of equal
thought-celfactivity.
This is explained with diagrams in PROGRESSED AS-
PECTS OF STANDARD ASTROLOGY.1 and is considered
in further detail, with instructions for beneficially chang-
ing the thought-cell desires, in WHEN AND WHAT
EVENTS WILL HAPPEN'. And in this thoroughly dem-
onstrated fact that active thought-cells can be trained to

cxnrcss their characteristic energy through selected chan-
nels, rather than thorugh less desirable avenues, lies the
value of natal astrology",
finding the Aspects—As house position alone is but one
of the two factors that must be considered in gauging the
amount of thought-cell activity mapped by a planet, facility
in locating the aspects each planet receives is desirable from
the standpoint of appraising the importance of the various
predispositions. And it is desirable from thcadditionnlstand-
point that the fortune or misfortune of these predispositions
arc almost entirely indicated by the nature of these aspects.
There arc ten aspects whose influence is sufficiently dis-
tinct to warrant always giving them consideration. They
map desires of the thought-cells which arc characterized
by the given aspect. That is, each asnect reveals a predispo-
sition on the part of the thought-cells to bring about condi-
tions and events of a definite kind of fortune or misfortune.
The amount of thought-cell energy mapped, and the char-
acteristic expression is most clear-cut when the aspect is
perfect; but the aspect will still manifest its peculiar energy,
though less distinctly, as the number of degrees recedes
from the perfect aspect, until its own distinctive kind of
energy is no longer present. And it has been determined
experimentally the number of degrees removed from the
perfect aspect that each aspect manifests its own kind of
energy with sufficient distinctness to have an appreciable
affect upon the life. The number of degrees awav from the
perfect aspect that a planet thus exerts even tnc slightly
characteristic quality of the aspect is called its orb or influ-
ence, or merely ORB.
In BEGINNER'S HOROSCOPE READER the general
and easily remembered rule relative to the orb that should
be allowed for the aspects in angular, succedent and cadent
houses are given in Chapter Three, together with a discus-
sion of the characteristic manner in which each aspect tends
to express. In the table here presented these orbs are given
in greater detail. See Part Three.
In calculating the aspects to any planet, they must always

Planets Occupying Approximately the Same Degree of Any
Sign Are Always in Aspect—If they are in the same sign, as
Jupiter and Pluto in chart (A), they are conjunction If
they are in adjacent signs, as Sun and Uranus in chart (D),
they are semi-sextile. If they are two signs apart, as Mer-
cury and Satum in chart (C), they are sextile. If they are
three signs apart, as Neptune and Venus m chart (A), they
are square. If they are four signs apart, as Jupiter and Sun
in chart (A), they arc trine. II they are five signs apart, as
Mars and Saturn in chart (A), they are inconjunct. And
if they arc six signs apart, as Moon and Midheavcn in
chart (B), they arc opposition.
The Degree Occupied by a Planet Forming Either the Semi'
Square or the Sesqui-Square Hfust Always Be Approximately
Half a Sign, Mare Than That Occupied By the Planet Counted
From—Therefore add 15° to the place of thehrst planet and
notice if any other planet occupies approximately this de-
gree in any other sign. When a planet is found in such a
place notice if it is in a sign that is either a sign and a half,
or four signs and a half, distant. If the former it is a semi-
square. It the latter it is a sesaui-square. But if it is two
signs and a half, three signs and a half, or five signs and a
^8 Hkcixncb's Ilonoscort Make*
half distant, it is a position of little consequence and should
be neglected.
Ix?t us consider chart (A), Neptune is 5°. Adding 15°
gives 20°. Jupiter and Pluto arc 209. Inspection shows
them to be a sign and a half from Neptune, and thus mak-
ing the semi-square aspect to Neptune. The Sun is 21°, but
inspection reveals It to be 2li signs from Neptune and thus
not making an aspect. Adding 15° to the 21° occupied by
the Sun gives 6°. Mars is 10°, but is S'A signs distant, and
thus not making an aspect, Venus is 4°, but Is only approxi-
mately half a sign distant, and thus not making an aspect.
Uranus is 12° and approximately AVz signs distant, but a bit
beyond orb. Saturn and the Asc. arc 8% and as they arc
a sign and a half distant, they form the semi-square with
the Sun. Mercury Is 25°. Add 15° and It gives 10° of the
next sign. Mercury is not only semi-square Saturn and Asc.
in 8°, but is approximately d'/z signs removed from Uranus
in 12°, and thus making the scsqui-squarc with Uranus.
Now considering Pluto and Jupiter, each in 20°. Add IS"
and it gives 5° of the next sign. The Moon is 3®, and the
inspection shows it approximately a sign and a half from
these two planets, and therefore making the semi-square to
them. Their aspect to Neptune we have already considered.
The only other positions in the chart near 5° are Mars in
10", M.C. in 3°, Venus in 4°, and Asc. and Satum in
8°. Mars Is less than one sign distant, and thus making no
aspect with Jupiter and Pluto. M.C. is approximately SVz
signs distant, and thus making no aspect. Satum and Asc.
are across the zodiac approximately five and a half signs
distant, Jupiter is barely within orb of opposition Satum.
But Venus is approximately four and a half signs distant,
and therefore sesqui-square both Jupiter and Piuto.
Beginners usually start by tabulating all the aspects of
each planet in a chart, that they may have them for ready
reference. But as soon as they acquire a little facility they
discard this laborious process. Following the method just in-
dicated, when they consider the predispositions a given
planet maps in the chart, they merely move their eyes swih-
ly around the chart and note the various aspects to the
planet under consideration. In this method of quick inspec-
tion about the only care that needs to be especially exercised
is not to overlook the aspects befneen planets in the first
degrees of certain signs with other planets in the last degrees

nus in 2 Gcnum 40 is trine Neptune, and Pluto in 5 Leo
is scxtilc Neptune
In considering the parallel apect it should be remem-
bered that it makes no difference if both planets are south,
both north, or one south and the other north If the degree
and mmutc the two planets occup> arc not drf/crent by
more than a degree, thej arc parallel Thus m chart (A)

and planets in succcdent houses have an orb of 10° for the
conjunction As we always use the larger orb, Venus is con

the sesqui square the Sun has an orb of 6° in angles, and

When we get across the zodiac in Taurus, wecannolonger

no aspect From Moon and Neptune to the Sun is approxi

An Aspect Applying:—-When planets arc moving to form
the aspect the orb of influence is slightly less before the
influence of the aspect is noticeable; but because its full
force is yet to be felt such on aspect is stronger to bring
about the condition signified.
An Aspect Scparnting—When planets are moving to form
the aspect the orb of influence is slightly less before the
influence of the aspect is no longer noticeable, because its
vibrations have already been sot in motion and tend to ling-
er; but as the influence is wearing off, such on aspect is
much less potent to produce results.
Oierlapping Aspects—Trine aspects sometimes grade into
scsqui-squarc aspects quickly, and where the aspect is from
the Sun in on angle the orb of the trine overlaps the usual
orb given for the scsqui-squarc. In such instances the more
powerful aspect operates to the full extent of its orb, and
therefore should be given preference by narrowing the orb
of the weaker*.
The Second iVep—Such detailed consideration of the as-
pects to a planet is needed only when judging the predispo-
sitions the given planet maps. In the general appraisal with
which the reading of the cnart should commence, only the
most powerful aspects need to be considered along with the
distribution of the planets in the houses, to be able to gauge
the chief channels into which the life will probably flow.
But whatever power of thought-cell activity is present
may be unyielding, and given to following any habit-system
of expression that is once formed; or it may be so restless
and enterprising that it seeks new things continually; or,
again, it may be of a quality that is adaptable to whatever
situation arises.
As indicating certain fundamental traits of the character,
therefore, it is well to tabulate the number of planets in
movable, fixed and mutable signs. In this tablulation hy
QUALITY twelve stations are considered; as in all tabula-
tion of sign influences the Ascendant, which is the ground
wire over which the electromagnetic forces of thepersonality
must reach the outside worltxT and the Midheaven, which
Umn'wo Tin: Honoscorn 71
amplifies and radiates the energies there to the world at
large, arc considered as planets. See Example Chart tabu-
lations.
Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn arc movable signs.
Many planets in movable signs indicate great activity.
Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces are mutable signs.
Manv planets in mutable signs indicate power of adaption
to whatever environment is present.
Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius arc fixed signs. Many
planets in fixed signs indicate determination, rigidity and
attention to details.
Furthermore, in the more minute examination of the pre-
disposition indicated by a planet or house, this quality influ-
ence has significance. Quality of thought-cell activity deter-
mines ADAPTABILiTV.
The Third Step—The triplicity occupied by the majority of
planets should not be overlooked, as this shows tempera-
mental predispositions. The individual xvhose dynamic
thought-cells—those mapped by the planets—are nearly all
of the fiery triplicity will react very differently to the same
event than will a person whose dynamic thought-cells are
nearly all of the xvater triplicity. Furthermore, the triplicity
occupied by a planet, or on the cusp of a house, has sig-
nificance xvherc the predisposition indicated by that planet
or house is concerned,
Aries, Leo and Sagittarius are fiery signs Many planets
in fiery signs indicate much zeal and enthusiasm
Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn are earthy signs. Many
planets in earthy signs indicate practicality.
Gemini, Libra and Aquarius are airy signs Many planets
in airy signs indicate intellectuality and vacillation.
Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces are xvatery signs Many plan-
ets in watery signs indicate sympathy, emotion ana recep-
tivity.
Triplicity reveals TEMPERAMENT.
The Fourth Step—In the initial appraisal of the chart those
houses are noted having most numerous planets, and con-
taining planets having exceptionally powerful aspects. But
at this point it is xvell to note the Society and the Trinity
occupied by the majority of planets, and then the houses in
xvhicn the planets are actually found.
The Trinity of Life embraces the First, Fifth and Ninth
'2 BrciN'Nfn'j Honoscopn M^Krn
Houses. The first house influences the constitution and
vitnflty. The fifth house Influences the life of the offspring.
The ninth house influences the life in relation to religion
and philosophy. Tin's trinity corresponds to the fiery signs
of the zodiac.
The Trinity of Psvehism embraces the Fourth, Eighth
and Twelfth Houses The fourth house influences the home
and the end of life. The eighth house influences death and
inheritance. The twelfth house influences sorrows and im-
prisonment. This trinity corresponds to the watery signs of
the zodiac.
The Trinity of Wealth embraces the Second, Sixth and
Tenth Houses. The second house influences personal prop-
erty. The sixth house influences labor and servants. The
tenth house inllucnccs business and honor. Tin's trinity
corresponds to the earthy signs of the zodiac.
The Trinity of Assodntion embraces the Third, Sesenth
and Eleventh Houses. The third house inllucnccs the
thoughts and the brethren. The seventh house influences
Eartnership and marriage. The eleventh house influences
opes and friends. This trinity corresponds to the airy signs
of the zodiac*.
Authority of One House Oier Another—As each planet maps
a djnamic thought-cell structure, it follows that a house
containing many planets maps enough thought-cell activity
to mafsC its department of lite important. Furthermore, the
characteristics of the events that are apt to be attracted
relative to a given department of life are those of the planet
or planets ruling the house. This influence of each planet
in each house is given in BEGINNER'S HOROSCOPE
READER.
But in addition to this, it is well also to note the house
actually occupied by the planet ruling the sign on the cusp
of each of the tw clve houses
Not only is there an intimate connection between the
house upon the cusp of which a given sign is found and
the house occupied By the planet have a certain power over
the things merely ruled by the planet's sign. Thus a planet
away from its home sign places the things represented by
sign under the influence of the things represented by the
house it actually is in. In relation to the things represented
by the Sign on a house cusp ruled by a planet, the things
UNinriNc thf llono^corr 73
ruled hj the house n plinct actual!) occupies exercises an
influence of AUTHORITY
House Cusp Orb—Both the M C and the Asc react as if
the) wore planets nnd thus astrologers have observed that
a planet as man) as 12 degrees from the M C into the ninth
house, has nn influence o\cr tenth house matters and a
[ilanct as man) as 12 degrees from the Asc into the twelfth
louse has an influence oxer the first house affairs They
liaxc this influence b) virtue of being within orb of the con
junction aspect with the M C or Asc But such observation
together with lack of precision in timing births and a con
sequent lack of precision in locating the proper degree on
the various house cusps have given some the impression
that when a planet is within five degrees of a house-cusp
it not onl) everts an influence oxer the things ruled by the
house it is in, but begins to have some influence over things
ruled b) the other house
Yet of the manx thousands of charts in which not only
the birth chart influence but also the influence of the prog
rcsscd positions of the planets have been studied by The
Church of Light Astrological Research Department indud
ing a vast number in which the effect of a progressed planet
moving through one house over the house cusp into another
house has been observed we have been forced to the con
xiction that one house is divided from another by an abrupt
partition
Not only docs a planet always exert its most powerful
mfluenco over the things ruled by the house it Actually
Occupies by Position but except through ruling the sign on
the cusp of the adjoining house or through aspect with a
planet in the adjoining house it has no more influence m
such an adjoining house even when withm one degree of
its cusp than it has in the houses which are not adjoining
Intercepted Signs—Sometimes it is found that there is an
mtercepted sign in a house It should always be considered
as co ruler of the house together with the sign on the cusp
of the house The qualities expressed by the sign on the
cusp of the bouse however manifest more freely than those
denoted by the intercepied sign The qualities of the inter
cepted sign are present but they require stress of circum
stances to bring them into expression Therefore in judging
a house both the planets m an intercepted sign and the
74 BnciPfNcn's HcmoscofE Maker
plnnct ruling this sign should be considered, as well as the
sign on the cusp ana its planets and ruler. Intercepted signs
represent qualities that arc LATENT.
Essential Dignities—Under the sub-heading. Finding the
Aspects, it was stated that the fortune or misfortune of the
predispositions given by thought-cell activity is almost en-
tirely indicated bv the nature of the aspects between the
planets mapping tnese predispositions.
The other factor which in minor degree influences the
prcdisnosition to fortune or misfortune mapped by the
thought-ccll activity is the sign in which the predisposing
planet is found. The influence of each planet in each sign
is set forth in BEGINNER'S HOROSCOPE READER.
That influence is due to the fact that the TONE QUALITY
of a planet is determined by the sign in which it is found.
The zodiacal signs arc sounding boards, or instruments,
from which the planetary vibrations reach the earth. Each
is a definite section of the astro-magnetic field of force that
surrounds the sun.
Due to this definite position in a field of force the tension
of astral substance through which the vibrations of a planet
must travel is different in each sign, and varies to a less ex-
tent even in different portions of the same sign. This prop-
erty of the astral substance of a sign may make it a favor
abfc sounding board for transmitting the characteristic
vibrations of one or more planet, but quite unfavorable for
transmission of the wave lengths and frequencies of other
planets.
To designate this, when the tension of astral substance
in a certain sign favors the full transmission of the vibra-
tions of a given planet, the planet is said to be Strong in
that sign. But when the vibrations of a planet reverberate
from the sign only with difficulty, and are distorted by it
from their proper tonal effect, the planet is said to be Weak
in that sign.
It has been experimentally determined that a planet not
only sets up vibrations in the sign it occupies, but also in
certain other signs. These special signs arc so sympatheti-
cally tuned to the planet that they vibrate to it no matter
where it is located They arc keyed to the tone of the planet,
and respond to its vibrations, just as a musical instrument
keyed to a particular tone will respond to that tone when
struck on another instrument, even when the other instru-
UNtrviNo Tim Honoscorr 75
mcnt k nt a distance. These signs that persistently trans-
mit the vibrations of a given planet whether or not the
planet is in them are said to be Ruled by that planet. When
the planet is in one of these signs it Rules it is said to be
at HOME.
The sign that a planet rules transmits easily and fully the
nature ol the planet uhen the planet is in it. A planet at
home—in a sign it rules—is Very Strong. The most refined
influence exerted by a planet, however, is not when it is at
home, but when in another sign which not only permits it
to express its energy fully, but which, duo to the peculiar
quality of its astral substance, lends itself particularly to
the expression of the finer and more intense vibrations of
the planetary tone. This other sign, which only transmits
the planet's vibrations strongly when the planet is in it, yet
which lends itself singularly to the highest expression of the
planet's qualities, is called the planet's EXHALTATION.
The ancients held that there is also a particular degree in
the Sign of Exaltation in which the planet exerts a bettor
influence than in any other degree of the zodiac. This degree
is called the DEGREE OF EXALTATION.
The vibratory quality of the signs ruled by a planet is
markctcdly influenced by any modification in the vibra-
tions of the planet. If it sounds from some other sign that
docs not permit harmonious expression, this discord is also
called out in the sign ruled by the planet. That is, the signs
ruled by a planet respond to the vibrations that actually
reach tnem, and these vibrations are given a harmonious
or discordant trend not merely by the aspects of the planet,
but also to a minor extent by the sign in which the planet
occurs.
Thus it is found experimentally that the sign directly
opposite the exaltation of a planet is a sign in which the
planet finds most difficulty in expressing the higher and
more pleasing side of its nature. In this sign its influence is
distorted and Weakest This sign is called the planet's FALL.
The degree opposite the degree of exaltation is supposed
tocalled
be the poorest degree
its DEGREE in the zodiac for the plant. It is
OF FALL.
When a planet is in the sign opposite its home, or ruler-
ship, it exerts its influence poorly and in an inharmonious
manner. This sign in which the planet is very Weak is
called its DETRIMENT.
7G IJrciN'Nrn's llonoscorc Makcr
There is nnothcr sign in which each planet is able to
express itself moderately well, but not with such strcnCth
as when at home. This sign in which the planet is Moacr-
ntcly Strong is called its HARMONY.
In the sign opposite its harmony a plane: exerts an in-
fluence which is Moderately Weak, This sign in which it
has a rather poor influence is called its INIIARMONY.
Hy his general knowledge of the nature of each plane: and
cacli sign the student becomes able to determine approxi-
mately the strength of a planet in any sign; for as a general
rule a planet is strong in a sign the nature of which is simi-
lar to its own, and weak in a sign having dissimilar
characteristics. But as this matter has been ascertained
experimentally, it is well, from the Table in Part Three, to
mcmorirc the sign in which each planet has its Home, Exal-
tation, Detriment, Fall, Harmony and Inharmony. This
strength or weakness of a planet in being able to express its
own true nature by being in a sign which forms a favorable
or unfavorable sounding hoard for transmitting 5its vibrations
is called the planet's ESSENTIAL DIGNITY .
Mutual Reception—Two planets arc said t* bo in mutual
reception when each occupies the sign which is the exalta-
tion or the home of the other. For example, if Saturn is in
Leo and the Sun is in Capricorn, they arc in mutual recep-
tion. If Jupiter is in Capricorn and Mars is in Cancer, they
are in mutual reception. When two planets arc thus in
mutual reception, they tend to benefit each other through
mutual aims. These two planets need not be within aspect
to each. If they arc in an afflicted aspect, there will be dis-
cord commensurate with the aspect; but in spite of the
aspect, each planet sets up vibrations in the sign that is
the natural medium of the other, and thus renders the other
assistance.
Mutual reception implies that among some of the things
rufeef by each planet there wf/f be cooperation, ft does not
annul the effects of a discordant aspect between two planets.
The aspect, good or evil, will work out to its fullest extent
in terms of some of the things ruled by the planets, if noth-
ing is done about it. But the mutual reception will still
bring about a cooperation between other things so ruled;
even if it be an unconscious and unwilling cooperation.
The Mutual Reception Table in Part Three will help

that arc within mutual reception (MR) in the four exam

Rrtrogrode Planets—Due to the relative motion of the
earth there arc times when certain planets apparently move
backward through the zodiac When so moving a planet is
called Retrograde It is then marked in the ephemens where
it apears with an R at the head of its column
The qualities, abilities and events signified by a retrograde
planet are all present as if the planet were direct in motion,
except that thej are repressed or hindered, and thus have
the utmost difficult) in expressing themselves In natal
astrolog) a retrograde planet indicates that there is a repres
sion of the nature of the planet and the department of life
that it rules through which the feelings and desire for action
arc dammed up within In the sense that there is an impedi
ment to adequate evpression a retrograde planet is an affhc
tion
But in a natal chart it is an affliction that can be relieved
The affliction is not due to such thought>cell desires as are
indicated by aspects It is due to the attitude of the soul
toward certain conditions that arise in the life Certain
thoughts and emotions that should normally find expres
sion, through being linked up with early painful emotions,
or with various taboos, are kept in the background along
with the emotions and tab»os with which they accidentally
have been associated Thus the whole personality is often
sidl) warped But it need not remain so, for with the re-
lease of the repressions it ouickly becomes normal A retro
grade planet predisposes toward REPRESSION
Stationary Planets—When a planet direct in motion turns
retrograde or a planet retrograde turns direct in motion,
there may be an interval of several days in which the planet
appears to have no zodiacal motion It is then called a Sta
lionary planet The change from retrograde to direct motion
is marked in the ephemens b> the letter D in the column
occupied by the planet
Such a stationary planet indicates that the tilings it sig
mfies have great permanence, stability and endurance The
thought cell desires thus indicated can be altered onlj by
extraordinary effort, or b) unusual conditions Qualities

nnd abilities thus indicated nrc unyielding and persistent.
Whether for good or evil, that wnich is ruled by a sta-
tionary planet is ENDURING.
EIci mcd Planets—The term elevation is used to signify
how high or low in the chart a planet is situated. The high-
est point in the chart is the M.C. The lowest point is the
I.C. A planet above the earth—in the six upper houses of the
chart—expresses itself in such a manner tnat it is noticed
by others, and gets ample credit or discredit, as the ease
may be. Planets below the earth give just as much ability
but do not express their qualities in a manner that draws
public attention to them.
The higher, or more elevated, a planet is in the chart the
easier it is to give full publicity to the affairs signified by it.
Likewise, the lower, or less elevated, a planet is in the chart
the greater the difficulty in drawing public notice to the
things so signified.
People bom with many planets above the earth are al-
ways given ample credit for whatever abilities arc signified
by the planets. People bom with many planets below the
earth arc seldom given credit for the abilities they possess
because the qualities denoted hy the hidden planets—those
below the horizon—do not manifest in a manner to be ree
ognized by people in general. The exception to this is when
a planet below the horizon makes a strong aspect, or very
close aspect, to the M.C. The M.C. is the hroadcastting
station, and any planet aspccting it has facilities for getting
fiublic recognition for the attributes it maps. But aside
rom aspccting the M.C, the most elevated planets in the
chart are always important in that they signify the qualities
that receive full public recognition Elevation means PUB-
LICITY.
Planets East—Life itself embraces the ineraction between
an organism and its environment. Through this interaction
eitber the organism or the environment, or still more com-
monly both, arc modified. But some organisms instead of be-
ing merely molded by environment, exert a power that mod-
ifies markedly the environment. Some men, for instance,
shape their surroundings to their own needs, while others,
perhaps equally successful, are formed and shaped and
directed almost entirely by the various conditions by which
they find themselves surrounded
Unifying tite Honoscopr 79
Those who have many planets on the east side of the
chart impress environment with their personalities and pow
ers That is, the virility of a planet to impress the qualities
it rules upon environment is pronounced when the planet is
on the east side of the chart Therefore, a planet in house
X. XI, XII, I, II, or III tends to MOLD CIRCUMSTANCES
Planets JVest—On the other hand those who have many
planets on the west side of the chart are more influenced
in life's course by the action of people and by their sur-
roundings The virility of a planet to impress the qualities
it rules upon environment is not pronounced when tnc plan-
et is on the west side of the chart Therefore, a planet in
house IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, or IX tends to be MOLDED

The Best House and Best Planet—Because in natal astrol-
ogy the Best House in the chart indicates the department
of hfe from which a given expenditure of effort is likely to
bring greatest advantages, and because in other branches
of astrology it indicates the department from which most
favors may be expected, it should always be ascertained
And as the Best Planet indicates the environmental associa
tions that are most fortunate, it also should be noted It is
particularly significant m vocational selection, and in the
selection of surroundings favorable to health The nature
of the planets, the signs they occupy, the volume of their
energy, and the aspects they make all enter into this con-
sideration Commonly, however, if both Venus and Jupiter
are in the same house it may be taken as the best house'
The IVorst House and Worst Planet — Because in natal
astrology the Worst House indicates the department of life
that is likely to cause the most difficulty, and in other
branches of astrology it indicates trouble, it also should be
ascertained And as the Worst Planet indicates the environ
mental associations that are most unfortunate, it is impor-
tant to note it, so that these things may be avoided Here,
also, the nature of the planets, the signs they occupy, the
volume of their energ>, and the aspects they make must all
be considered Ordinarily, however, if both Mars and Sat-
urn are in the same house it may be taken as the worst
house4

They believe that God revealed I lis will to ancient nations
through the prophets, as stated in the Bible. But they be-
lieve in this more enlightened age, God also reveals His will
to groups and nations through mundane astrology".
They believe as related in the Bible that God counseled
Jacob, Samuel, David and various other persons relative to
their personal problems. And they believe that through
astrology—to one who by a little study becomes familiar
with it—God counsels the individual, and shows him how
to live a more spiritual life, and to be of greater help to
himself and others, at this day.
While astrology can be used for a wide variety of pur-
poses. these Stellarians believe its most valuable function is
to reveal the will of God, to give detailed information about
the structure and potentialities of the human soul, and to
instruct individual man at each step of life's journey how
best be can develop his own character and9 most effectively
assist in the realization of Gods Great Plan .

WE MAKE AN EASY START
The first thing the beginner student of astrology should clearly
comprehend is the nature of the interrelationship between the
two planes of being, and how it is possible for non physical
energies, through boundar) line electromagnetic forces having
approximately the velocity of light, to influence physical life.
Astrological energies, while they may influence not only electro-
magnetic energies having approximately the velocity of light,
but also electromagnetic energies within a living organism on
levels where velocities are much slower than hght, are not
physical, but chiefly belong to the astral plane
The Special Theory of Relativity, which lies at the foundation
of modern physics as now taught in most universities, holds that
physical velocities cannot exceed that of light, and that anything
mo\ing with the velocit) of light no longer possesses length,
has infinite mass and so is impervious to the pull of gravitation,
and that for it time has come to a standstill Yet there is a vast
mass of cs idcncc—including prccogniUon, clairvoyance, and
other psychic phenomena that the experimenters at modern
universities have proved take place, as well as the action of
astrological energies—which demonstrates there is an inner world
where velocities are e\cn greater than that of hght These phc
nomcna call for just such properties as a realm of such high
velocities must possess It is the region at all times occupied by
that which scientific men term the subconscious mind or un-
conscious mind, which in reality is identical with the soul
This inner world from which the astro (star) logical energies
influence physical life is called the astral (belonging to a star)
world, or astral plane Its substance interpenetrates all physical
things, and m addition to possessing a ph>sical form, everything
material also possesses associated with it an astral form The
association is made possible by the electromagnetic energies
accompanying things physical
The velocities of the astral world arc too high directly to affect
the low \docity physical substance, and the \elocities of matter
arc too low directly to affect the high velocity astral substance
But electromagnetic energies which, in space, have a velocity
8C BcClNNEn's Ho«OSCorE KE^DEr
approximately thai of light, are not too far removed in their
properties to prevent being influenced by the forces of both
realms. Thus it is that the inner plane affects the outer plane
and the outer plane affects the inner plane only through boun-
dary-line electromagnetic energies.
These electromagnetic energies arc in some degree associated
with all physical substance, but arc generated in profusion by
cells of organic life, and in particular abundance by the cells of
the nervous system of the human body.
In the astral realm of velocities, as already indicated, things
do nor behave as they do in the physical realm. Things happen
that from purely physical experience seem impossible. Prccogni-
tion, for instance, which at Duke and other universities has been
definitely proved to exist, is incomprehensible from the stand-
point of the physical relation of cause and effect Yet it has been
demonstrated by the experiments of university researchers that
man has a faculty by which it is possible to recognize events—
such as the order in which cards will be found when mechanic-
ally shuffled ten dap later, and the order in which dice will turn
face up before the throws begin—in the future. And it has been
demonstrated that distance has no appreciable effect on the case
with which a person through extra-sensory perception picks up
the image in the mind of another person. Therefore it should
not be surprising that the planets, even though distant from the
earth, exercise a profound influence through their astral energies
upon the astral form of man, and that this in turn, unparting
motion to the electromagnetic energies of the phys.cal body,
influences his thoughts, his behavior and the events which come
into his life.
The signs of the zodiac map definite fields of f«rce in the
astral world, and each planet radiates astral vibrations which
flow as screams of energy, and as such have a definite impact
upon the astral forms of things possessing no material bodies, and
upon the astral forms of all things material All physical things
arc in some measure thus influenced by these streams of plan&
tary energy.
The astral energy radiated from each planet has a different
frequency, and therefore a different influence upon the astral
forms of things Each different musical tone or pitch that can
be heard is a definite vibratory frequency in an or other physical
substance. Each different color that can be seen is a definite
electromagnetic frequency. And the astral energy radiated from
An Il\<r StAnr 87
each planet represents a definite range of astral frequencies which
at the velocity speed of light corresponds to a certain color, and
at the Aclocity speed of physical substance corresponds to a cer-
tain pitch, or tone.
Now, the same colors passing through one kind of transparency
take on a quality that gi\cs them an effect more pleasing or less
pleasing than when they pass through another kind of trans-
parency. And the same musical tone sounded on an oboe has a
quality quite diflcrcnt than when sounded on a fife. Likewise
a planetary tone, or stream of energy, coming from the field of
astral force mapped by one sign of the zodiac has a different
quality in its influence than when coming from the field of
astral force mapped by another sign of the zodiac.
No person who has attended even the lower grades of school
is ignorant of the difference between the planets and the sun
and moon. The sun is a star, about which as a center the planets
revolve. The moon is the satellite which revolves around the
earth. But because in astrology sun, moon and planets have
similar affects on life—each radiating a distinctive range of vibra-
tory frequencies—it is convenient to speak of all as planets. Not
to do so would compfl endless repetition of the phrase, "planets
and sun and moon."
Observation has demonstrated that there arc 12 major distinc-
tive fields of force which commonly are called zodiacal signs.
Each of these 30 degree areas along the path of the sun has also
three minor equal divisions, called dccanatcs because they arc
10 degrees in extent. The signs of the zodiac each impart their
peculiar quality to the influence of any planet found in them,
and the decanatcs each still further modify this tone quality.
The most permanent of all astrological affects is the distinctive
tone, or characteristic influence, of each planet. It is only the
resonance of the lone, not its pitch, which is affected by the sign,
and to a less degree by the decanatc, from which its influence
comes to earth.
Now about the earth is its own field of astral force. And even
as the place m an auditorium where the listener sits has an
influence upon the volume and other acoustic properties of the
sounds from musical instruments played from the stage, so the
place on earth of an object or individual at the time has an
influence upon the volume of the vibratory energy there received,
and where a living organism is concerned also an influence upon
the department of life affected. The variation in the volume of
88 DrcmNrn's Hoiukcope RcADEn
a planet's energy that actualf) reaches a given spot, and the de-
partment of life chiefly affccrcd by these energies, may accurately
be mapped by a circle around the earth, extending from west to
cast and divided into twelve equal sections, Mlfcd mundane
houses The common horoscope blank maps these twelve houses
The astral energies from the planets, even as docs the electro-
magnetic frcqucncj called light from these planets, converge
from different angles at the spot on earth where any individual
or object ma> be And the angle at which any two streams of
planetary energy meet determines die manner in which their
tones harmonize or present discord
Near!) everyone has seen the small whirlpools in water formed
when currents meet at certain angles Those who have driven
across the western deserts have seen whirling dust columns which
arc present only when air currents converge from definite angles
Waterspouts at sea and tornadoes on the land exemplify the same
principle, and lightwaves under certain circumstances arc
brought together so as ro cancel each other's motion. Even as
currents of air, water, or light acquire definite properties when
they meet at certain angles, so also do the astrological energies
from the various planets And experience shows that there are
ten different angles from winch plan-tary energies may converge
to produce distinctive influences, each of the ten having an in
flucncc somewhat different than any of the others These angles
of convergence of planetary energies lhat arc known to produce
a distinctive influence arc called aspects
Any kind of energy is capable of either constructive or destrue
live action Sunlight can burn human skin, or it can enable plants
to manufacture the food that sustains human life Water can
drown an individual, or it can run the turbines that generate
manufacturing power Air can destroy towns or it can drive
sailing vessels Electricity can blast a tree of oak, or it can funush
light for reading at night And a good astrologer always rcmcm
hers, not only that the characteristic influence of each planet
never changes, but that even so, it may act either destructively
or constructively, and it is his job to see to it that it acts con
structively as often as possible
Other than time, we now have briefly considered all the factors
of major significance m astrology Planets, signs, aspects, houses
Of these four, the astral energies radiated by the planets are the
dynamic influences The signs merely represent the fields of
force that do not change the essential influence of the planets
An Easy Start 89
located in them, but do change their resonance They act as
sounding boards for the planetary tones The aspects do not
change the essential characteristics of any planet's influence, but
they do determine the type of harmony or discord the conver-
gence of its stream of energies with the streams of energies of
other planets indicates The houses do not change the character-
istics of cither the planets or their aspects, but they do have a
determining influence over the amount of power a planet's energy
can exert, and what department of life its energies will chiefly
influence
Now these four astrological factors arc at all times operative
But as the dynamic influences called planets revolve about the
sun they move at limes into the various fields of force called
signs, the angles with which their energies converge with those
of other planets, called aspects, change, and as the earth rotates
on its axis their energies reach a given spot on the earth succcs
sivcly through each of the 12 houses within a period of 24 hours
The time clement is essential thus to map the directions in which
streams of astrological energy arc flowing, and also to map
releases of planetary energy by progressed aspects
These streams of astral energy exert a pressure upon the astral
forms of all things on earth As set forth in ASTROLOGICAL
LORE OF ALL AGES", they have profoundly affected the evolu
tion of man, have influenced his social systems, brought periods
of progress and periods of stagnation, and without his knowledge
have instituted and maintained his hohdajs and popular customs
Also they have an influence even upon inanimate objects Things
which arc crosswise, so to speak, to these currents, and especially
if they arc so constituted as to vibrate readily to the convergences
mapped by destructive aspects, have a difficult tune Other things
which offer little resistance to the general flow, and only vibrate
readily to the convergences mapped by constructive aspects,
fare better
A great amount of observation goes to show that living things
that survive birth arc born only at those tunes when their own
astral organism coincides rather closely with the pattern formed
at that umc by the flow of planetary energies For itistaticc, if
the thought-cell organization of a child is too di\c,gcnt from
the pattern of astrological forces, including planetary streams,
signs, aspects and houses, it is believed that the child will not live
However, this flowing astral pattern which permits birth of a
90 Btcjvsrn s Hoboicope Rl\der
living creature ts ccrtainl) not as rigid as steel Instead, when
proper ph)iical conditions arc present it seems to have suffieicnt
clasncitj that children can b- born and live whose thought-cell
organizations var> con$iderabl> from it in detail
Anyone who will talc the trouble to learn to erect and read
a birth-chart can prove for himself that the positions thus mapped
show the predispositions of a child then born The important
thing for the astrologer to remember, so as not to fall into the
errors of fatalistic fortune telling, is that these positions of the
planets at birth did not cause the individual then born to possess
the characteristjcs thej indicate, but that they show the direction
in which the planctat) energies were then flowing and combin
ing with other planetary currents And that the sum total of
these energy streams and their convergences formed an inner
plan- energy pattern which pcrnuttcd only a soul which already
had a corresponding organization to be bom The soul posseaced
certain predispositions It could not be born until there was an
astrological pattern not too divergent from the thought-cell
orgamzaion which was the scat of these predispositions
Each planet in a birth-chart maps dynamic thought-c-lls which
express their energy in thoughts, behavior and events attracted
charactcnstic of the experiences which formed them. The type
of experiences in lower forms of life that built and organized
th- thought-cells mapped by each of the ten planets is set forth
in Chapter Three of HOW TO SELECT A VOCATION
The physical cells and organs of the material body have a
characteristic type of in clligcncc, Inow how to do certain things
without being directed by the bram, have their own desires,
which may or may not be for things which arc beneficial to the
indiv idual, and perform their functions without the active super
vision of objective consciousness So also the thought-cells and
thought structures of the mner plane body possess the kind of
intelligence imparted to them when they were formed, have
desires, and do work from the mn-r plane which may or may
not be beneficial to the individual The amount of energy they
normally possess is mdicatcd by the prominence of the planet
mapping them in the chart of bnth Their desires arc always
characteristic of the planet thus mapping them, but arc modified
in detul as shown by the sign occupied by the planet, and arc
of a nature b-ncfioal or detrimental to the individusl as indicated
by the aspects the planet rcceiv es.
An Easy Start 91
These desires, to the extent the thought-cells possessing them
normally have energy, or acquire it from progressed aspects,
inSuencc the thoughts, the behavior and the events that come
into the life Occupying the inner plane, thought<ells are able
to exert extra physical power to bring to pass the type of physical
events they desire This is the kind of power exercised by mcta
physicians and all other practitioners who do not employ physical
means, to demonstrate health or oth-r conditions for those who
seek their services
Important events come mto an individual's life only when
thought-cells mapped by the house of the birth-chart ruling the
department of life affected reccise new en-rgy from a progressed
aspect And the type of the e\cnt is always characteristic of the
planets forming the progressed aspect. The periods when such
additional energy is given to definite groups of thought-cells
can be predetermined through calculating the progressed aspects
How to make these calculations and appraise the probable event
that will occur while a progressed aspect is operative is explamed

gressed aspects, and just what precautionary actions should be

In this beginner's book it is sufficient to point out that the
birth-chart does not map SPECIFIC EVENTS But it docs map
PREDISPOSITIONS toward the types of conditions and events
which will affect each of the 12 departments of the individual's
life, because it maps the general desires of the thought-cells
associated with each The specific conditions and events, as ex-
plamed m3full detail m WHEN AND WHAT EVENTS WjLL
HAPPEN , are determined hj the desires and actmhes of (he
thought-cells m connection with the facilities and resistances to
these desires offered by the physical environment.
Neither do progressed aspects map SPECIFIC EVENTS
Instead they map ENERGY RELEASES of definite tjpes during
limited periods of time which can be predetermined These give
greater activity to definite groups of thought-cells But the specific

to the facilities of environment for some specific events, and the
environmental resistance to others
Furthermore, the birth-chart docs not indicate the development
of some particular disease is inevitable But it docs indicate the
PREDISPOSITION toward diseases of a certain t)pc. The pro-
gressed aspects show, not when some disease of tins tjpc will
inevitably develop, but the periods during which there is almost no
danger from such diseases, and the periods during which some
disease of the type is lil.cly to develop unless adequate precaution'
ary actions ate taken This subject is given detailed consideration

The Easy Way to Learn Astrology—Right at the start the student
of astrology should have a general idea of the nature of astro-
logical forces, why they produce the results they do, and how
they operate To impart such essential information has been the
object of this book thus far But from here on the object will
be to make information available in the order with n hich it con
most easily be applied
As the planets arc the chief source of astrological energies, the
beginner early w ill wish to know the chief characteristics of the
influence exerted by each upon human life Then, as zodiacal
signs, which arc fields of force acting as sounding boards, give
resonance and general trends to planetary energy, he will want
to know what these trends arc Following this, he will desire
to know what discords and harmonics arc given to the planetary
energies by their aspects Moving from the more general toward
the more parucular, he will then want to know about the houses
as indicating the departments of life affected by the planets as
aspccccd and located in the signs And finally be will want to
know how to appraise appearance, health, finances, position,
marriage, and other phases of the life that are influenced by
several astrological factors
lie will understand that a precise astrological reading rcqmrw
a birth-chart erected for the year, month, day and time of day
at the geographical location of birth But merely from the posi
lions of the planets on the day of birth certain general conclusions
can be drawn An ephemens for the day of birth will give the
sign positions of the planets, and from the degrees they occupy
their aspects—with the possible exception of those of the Afo«n,
which moves approximately 13 degrees a day—can be ascertained
An Easy Start 93
While neither revealing what department of life js thus chiefly
affected, nor how affected fortunately or unfortunately, the sign
occupied by each planet, as shown in the ephemens on the day,
month and year of birth has some significance over the things that
planet rules Therefore we will commence with a consideration
of the nature of the influence of each planet, and how that in
fluence operates in each of the twelve signs And, as the sign
position of the Sun can be ascertained merely from the date of
birth without the use of an ephemens—except when it is at the
very end of one sign or the beginning of the next—we will start
with the sun sign Furthermore, as such sun sign influence ex
presses the more common influence of each sign, there would
be no point in giving, in another place, the influence of the signs
when not thus occupied by the Sun
SUN The thought-cells mapped by the Sun are the scat of
the individuality They have been organized by those experiences
in lower life forms that express the Drive For Significance, in
eluding tenacity to life They govern the positive, electric energy
of the electromagnetic form On their degree of activity, and
their harmony, depend the ability to withstand illness and to
recuperate Length of life is measured by their power relative
to the afflictions shown by groups of thought<clls mapped by
discordant planets Any aspect of Mars to the Sun, or a harmoni
ous aspect of Jupiter to the Sun, tends markedly to lengthen
the life through increasing their power
Because their chief expression is toward gaining and maintain
ing significance, and their activity strongly influences the relation
of the individual to those in authority, as well as influencing his
authority over others, they are called POWER thought-cells The
thought-elements of which they arc composed are the most deep
seated and persistent of all To the extent these thought<ells
are active is the life influenced by thoughts of pnde, firmness
approbation, conscientiousness or self-esteem
Aspects to the Sun affect the vitality, the relation to authority,
and relations with the male sex Only those with a prominent
birth-chart Sun become successful as politicians or successful in
personally directing the efforts of others Discordant aspects to
the Sun tend toward difficulties with those in authority, or diffl
cultics arising from attempts to exercise authority
When the Sun is prominent in the birth-chart the individual
9V HrriNNrn * Hono^coir llr^Dnn
seeks to be at the held of something, and seldom works to ad
vantage unless given full charge of his work or department
When the Sun is prominent and afflicted the individual may
think, he is entitled to exercise authority for which he is com
plctcl) unsuifed And to increase his feeling of significance, he
ma) hrag and be egotistical Therefore, as early as possible he
should realize that the EULEJiSHJP which he craves cannot
be attained through bragging or DICTAT1VENESS It can only
be attuned through acquiring and using abilities that command
admiration, and gaining the cooperation of o'hers through a
s)mpathcttc consideration of their views and problems
Sun in Anes—The Power thought-cells of the individual born
in Aries, where the Sun ma) be found each )car from March
at to April 21, have been associated with, and desire to express
through, the I AM attitude Even as the Ram, which pictures
among the constellations the influence of this sign, is combative,
uses his head in offensive, and is the leader of his flock, so Aries
people require the zest of competition, feel the need for combat,
and always strive for personal Jcadcrihip
The Sun in Aries marks the birth of spnng and all the world
seems new to an Aries individual He is extremely optimistic,
and this often leads lum into undertakings that arc more than
he can manage One of several things he should avoid is having
loo many irons in the fire at once T7ic same inherent enthusiasm
easily leads him to rush into controversy before he has thoroughly
examined all the evidence And once he thus espouses a musc
he is reluctant to admit himself wrong Rash in love, bright and
lively in conversation, he takes 10 pohucs, for in it leadership
plays an important part Whether working constructively or
destructively he uses creative power and original thought, cm
ploying his brain to gain his ends In business he is apt to overwork
When the Sun is afflicted, his desire for LEADERSHIP, which
is his own proper field, may cause him to make two mistakes
One, already mentioned, is to diffuse his energies, trying to take
in too much territory The other is to develop OFFICIOUS-
NESS, and an inclination to interfere unduly in the affairs of
others The sooner he learns that people resent being bossed about
and told how to do things they already arc doing well, and that
example and fcmdly advice when at is asked gum him the leader
ship he craves, the more successful will his life become
Sun in Taurus—The Power thought-cells of the individual
An Easy Start 95
born m Taurus, where the Jsun may be found each year from
April 21 to May 21, have been associated with, and desire to
express through, the I HAVE attitude Even as the Bull, which
pictures among the constellations the influence of this sign, is
slow moving, plodding and self reliant, but excessively violent
when provoked to anger, so arc Taurus people quiet and thought
ful, patiently awaiting for plans to mature Remarkable for en
durance, industry and application, they sometimes become sullen
and reserved Slow to irritation, when once aroused they arc
furious and violent They make warm friends and implacable
foes
The Taurus individual thinks largely in terms of money He
is neither more acquisitive nor more liberal than other signs,
but he likes to handle money, and to use money for whatever
purposes he has in mind Obedient to his employer, and very
persistent in all he undertakes, he does not possess the initiative
for new undertakings nor the courage to take great risks
When the Sun is afflicted, his desire for STABILITY may
cause hun to follow a set routine 111 the performance of his tasks,
and very much dislike to change Ins methods in any way He
is thorough in all he undertakes, and can neither be hurried
nor frightened from his deliberate pace Carried to the extreme
this inflexibility may express as OBSTINACY The earlier in
life he forms the habit of being steadfast for truth and justice
the more successful will he become, for a recognition of these
will permit him to change and to give way when he perceives
he is in the wrong
Sun in Gemini—The Power thought-cells of the individual
born in Gemini, where the Sun may be found each year from
May 21 to June 22, have been associated with, and desire to
express through, the I THINK attitude Even as the Twins,
which picture among the constellations the influence of this sign
arc human and dual, so Gemmt people like to talk and study
and teach, m a manner characteristic of those who have developed
both reason and intuition They arc versatile and changeable
and able to do more than one tlung at a tune
The Gcmmi individual has a very active brain and is at his
best when his intellect has full scope for work. He 1$ restless,
and must constantly express himself m some way, and may talk
$0 much about unimportant details that important information
00 nroiNNrn** JIoro^coM' HKADCR
is obscured. He has remarkable dexterity, and can do any number
of things well.
In Ins desire for VERSATILITY he may try many occupa-
tions, and he can follow so many different ones with little effort
that he frequently docs not stick to any of them long enough to
make a 'marked success of it. It is unnccccssary for him to endure
disagreeable things in one occupation, because he can always
get a job doing something else.
When the Sun is afflicted, this may lead to CHANGEABLE-
NESS, not merely in reference to jobs, but relative to his point
of \icw, his likes and dislikes, and even may include friendships
and domestic partners. For greatest success, therefore, he should
early realize that any one task can be made worthy of all his
ingenuity and talent, and that instead of changing his occupation,
or his domestic partner and friends, he should change his meth-
ods, and strive thus for greater and greater perfection.
Sun in Cancer—The Power thought-ceils of the individual
born in Cancer, where the Sun may be found each year from
June 22 to July 23, have been associated with, and desire to
express through, the I FEEL attitude. Even as the Crab, which
pictures among the constellations the influence of this sign, is
influenced by the tides and the moon, and is sensitive to its en-
vironment and tenacious of purpose, so Cancer people arc power-
fully influenced by their environment, arc sensitive and mcdium-
istic, arc subject to moods, and have tremendous tenacity. And
in their approach to their work, while their method gives as
good results as any, they arc apt to commence in a manner that
those of other signs consider oblique, even as the Crab has a
side-long gait.
The Cancer individual, while he may love travel, is excep-
tionally fond of, and attached to, his home and family. He is
emotional, and above all else craves sympathy. As he tends to
absorb all the conditions he contacts, he should choose his asso-
ciates and his domestic environment with special care.
When the Sun is afflicted, his fear of ridicule may be so
powerful and distressing as to prevent him properly asserting
himself, and he may fancy he has been slighted where no offense
was meant. He too easily becomes upset at hearing unpleasant
news, and exhibits TOUCHINESS. Instead, he should as early
as possible absorb the idea that people in general arc sympathetic
and friendly, and that those who arc otherwise arc not worth
bothering about. When he makes this thought a part of himself
An Eas\ Start 97
he will no longer refuse to accept, when they arc presented,
the very opportunities which he desires, for when he has an
idea, a friend, or a purpose, he holds to it with the utmost
TENACITY.
Sun tn Leo—The Power thought<clls of the individual born
in Leo, where the Sun may be found each year from July 23 to
August 23, ha\c been associated with, and desire to express
through, the I WILL attitude E\cn as the Lion, which pictures
among the constellations the influence of this sign, » the king
of beasts, is noted for its courage, and is especially solicitous of
its oflspring, so Leo people aspire to rule, arc courageous, fond
of their children and will defend them regardless of the cost
The Leo individual lends to be honest, magnanimous, gener
ous to his friends, impulsive, passionate, faithful and ambitious
His ideas usually arc on a large scale, and he seldom stoops to
pettiness or meanness He is fond of entertainment and mixing
with his friends, and must have affection, admiration and worldly
acclaim to be happy He has faith and trust m other people,
and these usually respond to his faith by trjmg to live up to
his expectations He 15 good at deputizing work, not demanding
of his subordinates that which is impossible
When the Sun is afflicted, his desire for significance may lead
him to overdress, and to become a showoff He then goes to great
pains to have a belter car, a finer house, and to entertain more
lavishly than others in his social set It is true that he is better at
directing the efforts of others than in taking orders But also he
readily can believe he should have a position of importance far
beyond any he is capable of properly filling His craving for a
position of authority and for personal notice may develop into
a tendency toward DOMINATION He should, therefore, as
early as possible realize that KINDNESS will advance him
toward the glory he craves, even if its exercise calls for the per-
formance of mcmal tasks, much faster than the arbitrary issuing
of orders
•San m Frrgo—The Power thought-cells of the individual

in such a way at fo reap a rich harvest of knowledge- Always
ready to suggest improvements in existing methods, some of
them become veritable encyclopedias of information.
The Virgo individual loves to deal with facts rather than with
theories. Statistics appeal to him. He takes orders readily and
uses ingenuity and originality in carrying them out. He is clever
at accountancy, and makes a good public servant. He is a master
of detail, and his ability to think straight may take him into the
scientific field, or make him exceptionally valuable to executives
who do planning; for he can dissect a proposition of any kind
and find its weaknesses and determine how these an be strength-
ened. He lives so completely in the intellectual realm that often
it narrows the range of his emotions.
When the Sun is afilictcd, his desire for ANALYSIS may
cause him to be unsympathetic, to be overly fastidious, seldom
to praise, but often to find fault, with others. The earlier he
realizes that it takes just as keen discrimination to find and stress
the good points in people and things, and is far more profitable
than indulging in CRITICISM, the more benefits he will receive
from life.
Sun in Libra—The Power thought-cells of the individual born
in Libra, where the Sun may he found each year from September
23 to October 23, have been associated with, and desire to express
through, the I BALANCE attitude. Even as the Scales, which
pictures among the constellations the influence of this sign, are
easily lipped either way, but regain equilibrium as soon as the
weight is removed, so arc Libra people for a moment easily
swayed by their emotions, but quickly regain their balance. And
even as the Sales arc the symbol of justice, $0 are these people
devoted to justice.
The Libra individual is a lover of peace and harmony, is
amiable, even tempered, affectionate, sympathetic, and inclined
toward marriage. He is fond of art, rcfinco pleasures and amuse-
ments, dislikes unclean work intensely, and feels the need of a
companion to share his lot in life. He loves perfection, craves
understanding, and as a rule should not live an isolated life,
but follow his social inclinations. He is polished and gracious,
and inclined to make a living through the easier methods than
through those more strenuous. Ugliness, strife, discord and
coarseness distress him painfully.
When the Sun is afflicted, his desire for APPROBATION may
cause him to sanction the questionable conduct of others, ana
to be led by them into actions which of his own initiative he
An East Staut 99
would never take Also, instead of specializing in some single
direction, and hence gaining high efficiency, his sense of propor-
tion may influence him to dabble in many things His occupation
should be something in which he contacts others personally and
can capitalize on AFFABILITY And the sooner he realizes
that people will like him better when they find he has sufficient
character to render firm decisions uninfluenced by flattery^ the
sooner he w ill gain his desires
Sun tn .SVorp/o—-The Power thought<clls of the individual
born m Scorpio, w here the Sun may be found each year from
October 13 to November 22, have been associated with, and
desire to express through, the I DESIRE attitude Even as the
Scorpion, which pictures among the constellations the influence
of this sign, is intense in its sexual propensities, is secretive in
habit, is cruel and subtle, is a fighter, and uses a weapon which
is not suspected by its opponent, so arc Scorpio people suspicious,
shrewd, determined, secreti\c, energetic and good fighters, at
times using indirect, but effective methods in attacking their
opponents In their sexual nature they arc intense and given to
jealousy
The Scorpio individual is thoughtful, contemplative, ingenious
and scientific He is strong in his likes and dislikes, and what
ever he finds to do he docs with his whole might He possesses
a natural healing magnetism, and is never at a loss for plans
by which difficulties may be overcome He can be trusted to
grapple with the most difficult and disagreeable tasks Usually
he knows what he wants from life, and works energetically to
get it
When the Sun is afflicted, his strong sense of duty, or his
cold, calculating and deceitful cruelty towards those he dislikes,
may give rise to TROUBLESOMENESS The earlier he realizes
that his advantage is in concentrating his RESOURCEFUL-
NESS on his own problems and in helping, rather than hinder-
ing others, the sooner he will be able to realize his desires And
he should also learn that success at times depends oa vidLngritv,
to take second place, and that asking questions is not a serious
acknowledgment of inferiority

so Sagittarius people have strong animal tendencies and at the
same time arc also well supplied with the higher, nobler, more
generous impulses They arc migratory, loving to travel, and
they arc keen on outdoor sports, but at the same time they have
a strong leaning toward philosophy and religion When the)
speak, what they say goes straight to the mark like an arrow

The Sagittarius individual is free, energetic, ambitious of
ttorldl) position, lopl, patriotic and charitable of the shortcom
ings of others Prompt and decisive in action, he can command
others, and thus makes a good executive On the other hand, he
can also take orders without resentment. Frank and candid in

The Capricorn individual is patient and persistent, and by
concentrated effort and skillful maneuvering butts his way

obstacles He is highly ambitious, a good manager, methodical
and inclined to be conventional He carries responsibility well,
and has a faculty for bringing together dissenting factions hut

Aquarius people tend to be interested in astrology and all things
new and progressive, have humanitarian instincts, are keen on
education, and desire scientific verification of all theories
The Aquarius individual is inventive, scientific, pleasant,
friendly, determined, faithful, sincere, easily influenced by kind
ncss, fond of society and refinement, and a keen student of
human nature He is independent, cares little for precedent and
convention, and although he may listen with rapt attention to
the ideas of another, he is not apt to be impressed by them.
He forms his own opinions Because he understands human
nature so well, he knows just what to say and what to do to
produce a given effect upon those with whom he is associated
Greatly interested in politics and religion, he lends to view things,
not so much from their benefit to one person or one group, but
m reference to their benefit to society as a whole
When the Sun is afflicted, his iesire for ARGUMENTATION
often causes him to take the opposite side of a question merely
for the sake of the discussion Because he alisorhs knowledge so
quickly he becomes impatient of those who are slow to grasp
new, and perhaps untried, ideas He tends to procrastinate, and
his enthusiasm for bettering the race is too apt to be expended
in verbal discussions which theoretically solve the difficulties of
mankind The earlier he recognizes that wisdom must be accom
panied by practical application if it is to accomplish anything
worthwhile, and the earlier he acquires the habit of action, m
addition to talk, the quicker and more effectively will he be
able to contribute to the ALTRUISM which he seeks

picture among the constellations the influence of this sign, live
in water, symbol of the emotions, so arc Pisces people unusually
sympathetic and powerfully influenced by their a/fcctions. These
fish arc united by the ribbon of love, and Pisces people long for
the ideal in marriage, and when this ideal is not realized become
restless and discontented. Nor is their idealism confined to
domestic life. They also yearn for universal brotherhood and
peace on earth good will to men.
The Pisces individual is amiable, kind, neat and particular,
yet may be timid and lacking in self-confidence. He is greatly
influenced by his environment, is restless, emotional, and capable
of high intellectual development. Sensitive and mcdiumislic,
capable of psychic lucidity, romantic and a lover of mystery, he
may become too negative and dreamy to realize his ideals. He
readily becomes interested in psychic investigation, is profoundly
disturbed by injustice, and is deeply religious. Even as there arc
two fish, the Pisces individual varies more widely from type
than those born in any other sign.
When the Sun is afllictcd, he is inclined to magnify the im-
portance of actual or threatened adversity, and he easily develops
a tendency to start things which he docs not finish. Even in
his SYMPATHY for others he should early realize he is re-
sponsiblc only in so far as he has ability, and trust Deity with
other details. And the sooner he thus banishes WORRY, and
learns to finish what he starts, the quicker will he realize the
peace and harmony he desires.

in the more complete explanations of the influence of the sign
which is given relative to the sun-sign.
The most important thing for the beginner always to remem-
ber is that while the aspects show the harmony or discord at
birth of the thought-cells mapped by a given planet, and there-
fore the general birth-chart trend toward fortune or misfortune
relative to the things they influence, this is readily subject to
change by proper precautionary actions after birth. A planet,
according to its position in the chart and the number and power
of the aspects it receives, maps a given volume of thought-cell
energy of a certain type. This energy may express through the
destructive channels characteristic of the planet, or through
constructive channels characteristic of the planet. The type of
thought cell activity cannot be changed but, as amply proved by
the Case Histories cited in "WHEN AND WHAT EVENTS
WILL HAPPEN', it is not too difficult to divert the destructive
thoughl-cell activity mapped by an afflicted planet into the con-
structive thought-cell activity of the type characteristic of the
same planet. By thus training the energy to find expression in
beneficial channels its power is lessened to bring misfortune,
and the life is improved in its fortune relative to the matters
over which the planet has an influence.
To show the individual how to avoid the destructive expression
of thought-cell energy by dclibcxatcly cultivating its constructive
expression, in considering each planet in each sign both the
planet's general destructive trend and its general constructive
trend when in each sign will be mentioned. To ascertain the
sign occupied by each planet on a given date an ephemcris for
that year must be procured- lie most economical method is to
purchase the Astrologer's Ephcmcridcs (AP Ephcmcnd*),
which may be had in convenient volumes each containing al)
positions each day for ten years- These cover the years 1880 to
1950. Die Deutsche Ephemeride cover years 1951 through
1970.
MOON: Mental processes arc of two kinds In the type ruled
by Mercury, cerebral processes resort to careful reasoning, classi-
fied observation, and the formulation of words and sentences.
And to get ideas across to others such words and sentences are
essential.
Yet the mental attitude as a whole, and the mental capacity,
are not chiefly due to such cerebral processes. Instead, they arise
mostly frcra the unconscious mind and from the impressions
Each Pi.anet in Each Sign 105
received from environment which have not thus been carefully
pigeon-holed. The feelings about certain things, the unreasoned
mental processes, the hunches, intuitions and capacities for ab-
sorbing certain kinds of information which, rather than the
expression of opinions thus formed through words and sentences,
chiefly constitute the mentality, are expressions of the thought-
cells mapped by the Moon.
These thought-cells which so powerfully influence the men-
tality have been organized by experiences in lower life-forms
with famvlv aud the seating of off spring. They govern the nega-
tive, low-frcqucncy energies of the electromagnetic body. Their
degree of activity, and their harmony, arc important in determin-
ing the strength of the physical constitution and therefore the
health. As they are the most receptive of all to impressions from
environment, it becomes easier to receive such impressions through
the avenues indicated by the sign and aspects of the Moon.
Because their chief expression relates to family life they are
called DOMESTIC thought-cells. Aspects to the Moon affect
the mental attitude, everyday affairs, and relations with the
female sex and the common people. To the extent the thought-
cells mapped by the Moon arc active is die life influenced by
thoughts of domestic life, women, the offspring, the weak and
helpless, or by music.
When the Moon is prominent in the birth-chart it denotes
much curiosity and changing moods, and the individual likes
to be before the public or to mix with the masses.
When prominent and afflicted, there is a tendency toward
INCONSTANCY. Therefore the individual with such a chart
should as early as possible realize that to be favorably known
by the public he must not change his mind too often, and must
cultivate the power to persist m some one endeavor until he has
exceptional ability. The tendency to instability should be chan-
neled into ADAPTABILITY-

MERC I TRY; The electrical currents which cany messages over

lectual ability, the intellectual interests and the habitual methods
of objectisc thinking, have buen organized in lower forms of
hfc through learning to remember and recognize enemies, palat-
able foods, and suitable localities for shelter. Because their chief
expression relates to the intellectual life they arc called INTEL-
LECTUAL thought-cells. Aspects to Mercury affect the mental
interests, the facility and accuracy of expression, and the type
of cerebral activity. To the extent the thought-cells mapped by
Mercury arc acme is the life influenced by thoughts about dmc,
written or verbal expression, calculation, travel, the recognition
of size, weight, form and color, or the solution of perplexities.
When Mercury is prominent in the birth-chart it denotes one

readily. He is at his best where he can attain his ends by wriitng,

thoughts of benevolence, vcncrauon, hope, devotion, selling,
good will or generosity.
When Jupiter is prominent in the birth-chart it denotes one
who feels menial employment is beneath his dignity As a con
sequence he seeks a profession, engages in merchandising, or
becomes a salesman His joviahty and ability to gain patronage
and favors through the good will he radiates are valuable assets
When prominent and afflicted, the good opinion he has of
himself tends to develop CONCEIT The earlier he recognizes
that Deity has permitted others than himself also to have correct
opinions, and that he therefore should be charitable toward
those opinions, the sooner he will begin to realize the feeling
of BENEVOLENCE which he so strongly craves

SATURN: The bony Structure of the body, traits which
stabilize the character, and ability to conserve or hoard material
possessions, arc expressions of the thought-cells ruled by Saturn.
ITicsc thought-cells which so powerfully influence acquisition,
fear, pcisistcncc and selfishness have been organized in lower
forms of life through experiences in seeking security, such as
in fleeing from enemies and hoarding food. Because their chief,
expression relates to obtaining safety they arc called SAFETY
thought-cells. Aspects to Saturn affect the life through work,
responsibility, or economy or loss. To the extent the thought-cclls
mapped by Saturn arc active is the life influenced by thoughts
of safety, secrecy, acquisitiveness, covctousncss, buying, trading,
casualty, comparison, worry, fear, greed, selfishness, system,
order or persistence.
When Saturn is prominent in the birth-chart it denotes one
who works hard, is shrewd and can buy to advantage, but in
selling docs better to employ another. He has a leaning toward
business, is a lover of efficiency, economy and organization, and
has the paiiencc to await for plans to mature.
When prominent and afflicted, he tends to become self-centcred
and unscrupulous in taking advantage of others. The earlier he
realizes that SELFISHNESS docs not pay, that honesty is the
most profitable policy, and devotes his energy to developing
SYSTEM to eliminate waste and inefficiency, the quicker will
he gain the success he desires.
Saturn in Aries—With the Safety thought-cells expressing
from the I Am attitude, security should be sought through
caution and circumspection rather than through contention and
abrupt action.

NEPTUNE: Feeling extra-sensory perception and dramatic
talent are expressions of the thought-cells ruled by Neptune.
These thought-cells which so powerfully influence the visions
and the ability to bring through from the astral world conscious-
ness of what is there apprehended have been organized m lower
forms of life through experiences in which mental escape has
been made from the harsh restraining walls of reality. Became
their chief expression relates to images of conditions more perfect
they are called UTOPIAN thought-cells. Aspects to Neptune
affect the life through the imagination, increased sensitiveness,
and schemes. To the extent the thought-cells mapped by Neptune
are active is the life influenced by wishful thinking, fantasy think-
ing, day-dreaming, apprehension, idealistic visions, living in the
imagination, or by thoughts of easy wealth or promotion.
When Neptune is prominent in the birth-chart it denotes one
who has a lively imagination, and who possesses the power to
get others interested in his projects He is a good promoter and
has decided dramatic talents, but dislikes both system and disci-
pline, and seeks to avoid hard work.
When prominent and afflicted, he fails to think things through,
gives way to VAGUENESS, and instead of critically analyzing
his ideas prefers to believe what he wishes to be true. The sooner
he learns that the only valuable ideas are those which may be

made practical the more fully will he be able CO realize the
IDEALISM for which he yearns
Neptune tn Anes—With the Utopian thought-cells expressing
from the I Am attitude, idealism should be sought in promoting
useful machines or appliances rather than in stressing personal

PLUTO; Inner-plane forces, including on the lower side those
most drastic and insidious, and on the upper side the finest and
most spiritual of all, are expressions of the thought-cells ruled
by Pluto.
These thought-cells which so powerfully influence spiritual
aspirations, or on the other hand innucncc inversion and awful
wickedness, have been organized in lower forms of life through
experiences in which there has been division of labor and co-
operation for a mutual end. Because their chief expression relates
to co operation for the welfare of the group, and when spiritual-
ized for the benefit of all, they arc called the UNIVERSAL
WELFARE thought-cells. Aspects to Pluto affect the life through
groups, through subtle force, or through coercion or co-operation.
To the extent the thought-cells mapped by Pluto arc active is
the life influenced by thoughts of groups, statistics, inner-plane
conditions, drastic events, the inside of things, gang methods,
cooperation, coercion, or universal welfare.
When Pluto is prominent in the birth-chart it denotes one
who, consciously or unconsciously, easily tunes in on the thoughts
and energies being broadcast from the inner plane. He is active,
energetic and resourceful, and tends to unite with others to
accomplish a common purpose.
When prominent and afflicted, he lends to be attracted to
groups who use him for their own self seeking purpose, and
who use coercion either to cause him to do as they wish, or to
compel others to do their bidding. The earlier he learns to
recognize and shun INVERSION and instead to work for
UNIVERSAL WELFARE, the more satisfaction he will gain
from life.
Pluto m Ancs—With the Universal Welfare thought-cells ex-
pressing from the I Am attitude, cooperation should be sought
in attaining constructive political leadership rather than in
bureaucratic exploitation.
Pluto w Taurus—With the Universal Welfare thoughtcclls
expressing from the I Have attitude, co-operation should be
sought in attaining freedom from want for all rather than in
monopolizing wealth.
Pluto w Gemini—With the Universal Welfare thoughtcclls
expressing from the I Think attitude, co-opcradon should be
sought in properly educating the public rather than in mis-
leading it.
Pluto in Cancer—With the Universal Welfare thought-ccDs
expressing from the I Fed attitude, co operation should be sought
in improving the home life of people rather than in submitting
to mediumisde control.
Pluto in Leo—With the Universal Welfare thought-ccDs ex-
pressing from the I Will attitude, co-operation should be sought
in the proper rcanng of children rather than in questionable
amusements.
Pluto in Firgo—With the Universal Welfare thought-cells

sought in benefiting labor rather than m exploiting labor.
Pluto in libra—With the Universal Welfare thought-cells ex-

Chapter Three
WE CONSIDER ASPECTS BETWEEN EACH
TWO PLANETS
The aspects between planets arc the angles at which their
energies comcrgc that observation has proved give definite
trends to their influence. The characteristic influence of neither
planet involved in such an aspect changes, but the energies thus
meeting arc accelerated or given a kind of constructive or destruc-
tive movement which is characteristic of the aspect.
Why streams of planetary energy meeting from some angles
seem to be unaffected, but meeting from other definite angles
arc given acceleration or a constructive or destructive force, is
explained in Chapter One. In a chart of birth an aspect maps
the harmony or discord that has been built into the thought-cells
mapped in the finer body by experiences in prehuman forms of
life. Thought-cells arc built, in lower forms of life preceding
human birth and after human birth, by states of consciousness
accompanying experiences. Experiences that give rise to the feel-
ing of friction build discords into the thought-cells characteristic
ofthattheobstacles

cells characteristic of the square aspects. Experiences that give
rise to the buoyant feeling of exceptional good fortune build
harmonics into the thought-cells characteristic of the trine aspect.
In a similar manner specific feelings have built the discords or
harmonies into the thought.cells characteristic of all ten of the
aspects which have been demonstrated to have marked char-
acteristics.
It must be remembered that the thought-cells mapped by

^22 Bccinner's Horoscxipe Header
It will be seen, therefore, that a birth-chan aspect, in addition
to mapping greater volume of thought-cell activity than if the
planets were unaspected, shows no change in the characteristic
of the planets, but only in terms of harmony or discord reveals
the desires the thought-cells have and therefore will try to
express in their effort to influence the thoughts, the behavior
and the even* that come into the life.
Furthermore, it follows that if the desires of the thought-cells
are changed by any maans, instead of striving to influence the
thoughts, behavior and the events attracted according to the
type of harmony or discord indicated by the birth-dunr aspect,
they wfll strive to influence the thoughts, behavior and events
attracted according to the type of harmony or discord they have
now acquired'.
And as a matter of extensive Case History Studies, as set forth
in WHEN AND WHAT EVENTS Will. HAPPEN1, it is
found that the easiest of all factors shown by a birth-chart to
change is the Specific event or condition which the thought-cells
desire, and the next easiest to change is their desire to express
in a given type of harmony or discord. Both the desire for
thoughts, behavior and events of a specific kind and the desire
for thoughts, behavior and events of a particular type of fortune
or misfortune, have been built into the thought-cells by feelings
that have accompanied cxpericn«cs. To slate it more technically,
these desires which arc mapped by the aspects of the planets arc
all due to conditioning; they have been educated to feel the
way they do. And by other not-too-difScuft conditioning they
can be trained to feel differently, to feel and thus to strive to
influence the thoughts, the behavior and the events that come
into the life in the manner that the individual has scleaed
they should.
The fortunetclfcr type of astrologer, not understanding the
cause of the fortune or misfortune indicated by an aspect; has
too often cultivated an attitude of helpless self-pity in those who
have sevese afflictions in. their charts. This is just as sensible
as to cultivate an attitude of helpless self pity in those who have
been erroneously educated in other ways. Instead of resigned
helplessness, in both insfcnccs the individual should be made to
understand the cause of his misfortunes, and urged and in-
structed to replace the erroneous education with proper educa-
tion. The person who has been caught that two plus two is five
needs to be conditioned differently where information Is con-
cerned, and the individual who has powerfully discordant
Aspects Between Each Two Planets 123
thought<ells needs harmoiuously to recondition his thought-cells
It is true that so long as the individual believes two plus two
is five he will have trouble with other people, and it is true that
so long as an individual's thought-cells arc discordant he will
have trouble in the department of life they influence But if in
either ease he has the initiative and persistence to undergo proper
training the trouble will disappear
Each discordant aspect in the birth-chart not only reveals bad
training of the groups of thought-cells mapped by the two
planets in the aspect, but it shows the urgent need for effort
properly duccted toward giving them different desires How
this can be accomplished is revealed by the method the desires
they already possess were acquired As the feeling of pleasure
or pain at the tune these thought-cells were formed is entirely
responsible for the desires they now ha\e, it is evident that these
desires can be altered in the direction of harmony by adding
pleasant feeling energy to them in as much intensity as possible
This process of conversion follows the same general principle
as that used by psychologists in what they call the sublimation
of unruly desires The first step is to recognize both the destrue
live and the constructive thoughts that belong to the thought
elements within the compound to be converted The second
and final step is to tram the thought-cells containing the com
pounds to find more pleasure in expressing their energy through
these constructive thoughts, behavior and events attracted than
through those destructive ^
It is useless to try to repress thought-cell energy, for when
that attempt is made the energy works from the inner plane
m so obscure a manner that only the results it brings about can
be recognized And it should be emphasized that Saturn thought
cell energy can never be made to express through the type of
thoughts, behavior or events characteristic of Mars or Jupiter or
Venus In spite of all we can do, the thought-cell energy mapped
by each planet will express in terms characteristic of that planet
Bat through the indicated process of conversion not an}y arc
the desires of the thought-cells trained to seek more fortunate
expression, but while the process is being applied as well as
after the training has reached a satisfactory conclusion, the energy
of the though t-cclls lb us div-rtcd into constructive activities u
sufficiently consumed that little is left them with which to in
flucncc the thoughts, behavior and events attracted in vvavs that
arc unfortunate
In the effort to reeducate the desires of the thought-cells, it
12+ Beginner's Horoscope Re-mjea
should be understood that the nervous system, through the elec-
trical currents flowing over it is tuned, by the thoughts and
emotions which these currents cany, to pick up, ladk) fashion,
the type of planetary energy, including its harmony or discord,
corresponding to these thoughts and feelings. And these nerve
currents also serve as conduclois to cany this quality of astral
energy, not merely to the tcrmiml of the aspects in which the
planet is involved whose energy is thus handled as a Rallying
Force, but to all the terminals of all the aspects, including the
progressed aspects.
This means that through the deliberate cultivation of Rallying
Forces by using our thoughts and feelings to tune in on some
harmonious birth-chart or progressed aspect, it lies within our
power to determine the type and harmony or discord of planetary
energy reaching most of the thought cells during a ghen period.
This knowledge—which can be used to much better advanlegc
when the progressed aspects operative during the period also arc
known, as explained in Chapter Five of PROGRESSED AS-
PECT'S OF STANDARD ASTROLOGY1—is highly valuable
when the effort is made to recondition discordant thought-cells;
for by employing pleasant rallying forces the desires of the
thought-cells can be favorably changed through giving them
more harmonious energy with which to work.
But whether or not rallying forces arc employed to assist in
reconditioning the desirat of the thought-cells, the essential thing
in the process is to give them so much haimonious feeling energy
that it rearranges the thougfit-elemenls within the thought-cells
and thus insures that their desires shall be harmonious. This is
called Conversion.
However, when thought-cells are highly discordant, it may be
difficult to think of the things their activities arc associated with
without feeling disticss. In these eases the training of the thought-
cells is more readily accomplished through the use of mental
antidotes, which arc thoughts not of the same planetary family,
but belonging to a fatmlv highly harmonious to the thoughts
that need to be trained. TTius Mars thoughts and those of the
Moon or Pluto, Jupiter thoughts and those of Mercury or Uranus,
Saturn thoughts and those of Venus or frcptune, arc menial
antidorcs of each other. The Sun thoughts need only harmonious
association with the thoughts of any of the other planets bcnc-
iicially to change them. They have no mental antidote.
It will now* be seen that while a knowledge of the nature of
each of the ten aspects is interesting, and that the knowledge
ASTFCTS BFTv.rt.N HKCII TAAO PIAMTS 125
of the common trend of the thoughts, behavior and c\cnts at-
tracted bj the aspects between each two planets has significance,
these two classes of information hase small value unless the
individual also knows how to tram his thought-cells to desire
and work to inllucncc his thoughts, behavior and the events
attracted into his life 30 the) will be of greater benefit than had
there been no such knowledge of astrolog) Therefore, in con
sidcrmg the aspects between each two planets, the common trend
of their influence when the aspect is harmonious will be mdi
catcd, and the common trend when the aspect is discordant, and
then it will be bricll) pointed out what should be done to cause
the lhoughl<clls mapped bj the aspect to desire and work for
more fortunate things
With the exception of the Moon which moves approximately
13 degrees a da>, and the Ascendant and Midhcavcn which
require a precise birth-chart to locate, all the aspects can be asccr
lamed merely from noting the positions of the planets in the
ephemens for the )car, month and day of birth
It has been found that streams of planetary energy comcrging
at half a right angle, a right angle (90°), a right angle and a
half, and twice a right angle produce whirls in astral substance
that arc each somewhat different m affect, but all decidedly
destructive It has been found that streams of planetary energy

at a trine and a half, gain in power but not in constructive or
destructive quality And it has been found that streams of

In order to produce its characteristic affect an aspect may vary
withm certain limits from perfect This space from perfect aspect
m which the characteristic affect is discernible is called orb of

■Aspects to the Ascendant—The degree on the cusp of the first
house is the Ascendant It acts as a ground wire over which
such energies as reach the outside world through the elcctromag
nctic forces of the personality must flow This degree acts much
as docs a planet, except that it is negative in the sense that it
acquires something or the nature of each planet aspccting it,
and the nature of the particular aspect. That is, an aspect from
Mars gives the personality some of the aggressiveness of Mars,
an aspect from Saturn some of the caution and system of Saturn,
138 Dccinnfr's Horoscope Reader
and an aspect from Venui some of the mildness of Venus. And
if the aspect is a square, the things indicated by the planet prove
an obstacle to the personality; bur if the aspect is a trine, the
personality experiences good luck from the things the planet rules.
Aipects to the Midheaver—The degree on the cusp of the
tenth house is the Midhcaven, or M.C, It acts as a broadcasting
station. It acts thus much as docs a planet, except that it is nega-
tive in the sense that it acquires something of the nature of each
planet aspecting it, and the nature of the particular aspect. That
is, an aspect from Neptune makes it easy to gain public recog-
nition in aviation, oil or dramatic matters, an aspect from Pluto
makes it easy to gain recognition from mass production, and
an aspect from Uranus makes it easy to gain recognition for new
ideas or inventions. If the aspect is a sextile, the recognition
brings valuable opportunities; but if it is an opposition, the
recognition brings separation and difficulties.
Chapter Four
WE CONSIDER EACH PLANET IN EACH HOUSE
The experiences in lower life forms which have built the
thought-cells that the planets map, while characteristic of the
planet mapping them, and having the harmony or discord in
dicated by this planets aspects, have each and all related to
some one or more of the 12 deEniie departments of life They
have related to the body s welfare, to physical possessions, to short
journeys and relatives, to the home, or to some of the other
distinct phases of living existence And, even as when assimilated
by the physical body calcium and phosphorous readily move to
that part of the anatomy where they enter into the slructure
of the bones, and when iron is assimilated by the physical body
it moves readily to the region which enables it to be built into
the red blood cells, so also the states of consciousness derived
from experiences with a given department of life readily move
to, and become built into, the compartment of the finer body
mapped by the house governing that department of life
Thus the thought-cell built finer form is divided into 12
distinct compartments, each mapped by one of the mundane
houses of the chart of birth, and each divided and separated
abruptly from the compartments on either side The walls of the
compartment are mapped by the house-cusps of the birth-chart,
as the spokes of the horoscope wheel arc called It is chiefly to
determine the sign and degree of the zodiac on each of these
house-cusps which thus map the dividing line between each
of the twelve compartments and the adjacent compartments,
and reveals which planet or planets influence each department
of life, that for a precise astrological reading it becomes necessary
to have a chart erected for the time of day and geog aphical
longitude and latitude of birth on the day, month and year
of birth How thus to erect a chart is explained in detail, with
examples in BEGINNER S HOROSCOPE MAKER
Now all sections of the physical body do not have the same
vigor and strength Neither do the thought-cells in all the 12
compartments of the thought built finer form have the same
power of activity Those mapped by some houses other things
being equal, can do a great deal more work than those mapped
by other houses

c/Tort indiatcd by the phnrt, how important the department
of life influenced by that planet is apt to be, whether or not
events characteristic of that planet will play an important part
in his life; and to what extent the individuals thoughts and
behavior will be influenced toward the type characteristic of
that planet.
The prominence of a planet in the chart of birth is far more
important than the aspects it receives; for the aspects indicate
ihought<cIl desires that readily can be altered through persistent
training. But no amount of training can cause thoughr-celJs of
one planetary type to try to express through thoughts, behavior
or events characteristic of any other planetary type. The most
that can be done is, through proper training, to divert the
thought-cell energy to work for conditions characteristic of their
type which are highly beneficial",
Next to the thought-cells mapped by angular houses in the
\igor of activity they arc able to express, and in the order that
follows, arc those mapped by the eleventh, eighth, ninth and
twelfth houses. These thought-cells arc MODERATELY
POWERFUL.
The vigor of the thought-ccllt mapped by (he second house
is somewhat more powerful than that of those mapped by the
third house, but the thought-cells mapped by either of these two
houses should be considered FEEBLE.
Those mapped by the sixth house—and for that reason it is
so significant of illness—arc even less vigorous than those mapped
by the fifth house, but the thought-cells mapped by either of
theses two houses should be considered VERY FEEILE.
The thought-cells in the compartment of the asiral body
mapped by a house of the horoscope arc called common thought-
cells They have been built by experiences with the things of
ihc department of life thus indicated that are of the type of the
planet ruling the cusp cf the house. Although this planet may
be located In soar other house of the birth-chart, these common
thought-cells always respond through the principle of resonance
to its ubrations The prominence of the planet ruling the cusp
of a house Jctcrmrnes the comparative degree of acnvity of tie
common thoughtcclh mapped by that house. The characccnstics
of the planet ruling the cusp of a house have an mflucn«e over
the type of conditions to be encountered m that department of
life. The harmony or discord, as shown by ihc aspects of the
planet ruling the cusp of a bouse, indicate to what extent the
Each Pi>net in Each House 143
common thought-cells desire and work for fortunate or unfortu
natc conditions relative to that department of life
The following arc the rulerships of the signs by the planets
Anes is ruled exclusively by Mars
Taurus is ruled exclusively by Venus
Gemini is ruled exclusively by Mercury
Cancer is ruled exclusively by the Moon
Lro is ruled exclusively by the Sun
Virgo ts ruled exclusively by Mercury
Libra is ruled exclusively by Venus
Scorpio is ruled by both Pluto and Mars
Sagtllanus is ruled exclusively by Jupiter
Capricorn is ruled exclusively by Saturn
Aquarius is ruled by both Uranus and Saturn
Puces is ruled by both Neptune and Jupiter
Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are called upper-octave planets
because in some respects the influence of Uranus seems to be
a higher expression of Mercury attributes, Neptune a higher
expression of Venus attributes, and Pluto a higher expression
of the Moon attributes Usually they more pronouncedly influ
cncc Aquarius, Pisces and Scorpio thought-cells, but at other
times the Aquarius thought-cells respond quite as readily to the
influence of Saturn, the Pisces thought-cells respond quite as
readily to the influence of Jupiter, and the Scorpio thought-cells
respond quite as readily to hlars Thus these three signs ha\c
a co-rulcrship
Whatever house a planet rules through the sign on its cusp,
it exerts a still more powerful influence upon the house of the
chart it actually occupies Wherever the planet is m the chart,
it there maps highly active cells Because of their greater activity
and power they are called dynamic thought-cells. Their com
parative degree of activity is indicated by the prominence of the
planet. The department of life which they most profoundly a/Tcct

The fortune or misfortune of the events relative to the departm-nt
of life that they desire and work for is indicated by the aspects
of the planet
The department of life indicated by a house containing one
or more planet is influenced by the common thought-cells as
indicated by the planet ruling the house cusp, and is also m
fiucnccd by the dynamic thought-cells mappca by each planet in
BcciNsm's Honoccorr. Bwdep
the house. Other things hcing equal—such as the aspects to each
planet—-the planet nearest the cusp of the house in which it is
located indicates the most active and powerful group of thought-
cells, and the farther removed a planet is from the house cusp,
other things being equal, the less active the thought-cells it maps.
If the ruler of the cusp of the house is cxccptionall)' prominent,
the common thought-cclU may have more power than the
dynamic thought-cells mapped in the house by a weakly aspected
planet. Rut other things being equal, a plarct actually in a house
indicates more powerful and active thought-cells than the com-
mon thought cells influenced by a planet not in the house but
ruling its cusp.
It should Ik understood, however, that what is said in that
which follows about the significance of each planet in each house,
also applies to the house or houses the sign on whose cusp is
ruled by tlie same planet; but chat as a general rule the planet,
if any, actually in the house more accurately describes what the
more powerful thought-cells want and strive to bring to pass.

° Beginner's Horoscope Reader
jhjpj to play an important part in the life, if the eighth home
is active it indicates a predisposition for death and inheritance
to play an important part, and thus with each of the other houses
Which one of the matters ruled by a given house becomes
more important is largely a matter of conditioiung and environ
mcnt An individual with an active third house, and Mercury
prominent, if conditioned that way may fake to writing, but if
conditioned another way may not write, but take many short
journeys If in addition to third house activity Mercury is not
prominent, his relatives may greatly influence his life and he
may travel and write little
Furthcrtnorc, this matter of conditioning after birth may make
one department of life of two whose houses arc equally active
and ruled by the same planet far more important than the
other In reference not merely to the specific events attracted,
or the specific conditions, but also to the departments of life
given importance by the activities of thoughtcclls ruled by the
same planet, conditioning (education by experience) and en
vironment usually are the determining factors'
The predisposition toward the type, or types, of events that
will affect any one of the 12 departments of life 1$ indicated
by the planet, or planets, ruling its house in the birthchart
The conditions and events relative to a house ruled by Mars
will be characteristic in that there will be haste, strife and undue
expenditure of energy where they arc concerned And thus also
the charactcnsucs of each planet will be discerned m reference
to the conditions and events belonging to the department of life
whose houses arc ruled by the planet, for the thoughr<clls thus
mapped have been built by experiences typical of the planet.
The predisposition toward fortune or misfortune relative to
the events and conditions affecting any department of life is
shown by the aspects of the planets ruling the house of the birth
chart mapping it. If there arc only harmonious aspects to the
planet or planets, the thought-cells acsuc and w ork for thoughts,
behavior and events relative to tins department of life that arc
fortunate If there arc only discordant aspects to the planet, or
planets, the thought-cells desire and work for thoughts, behavior
anri c\cn»s relative to this department of life that arc unfortunitc
If there are both discordant and harmonious aspects, the dis-
cordant aspect shows by the house occupied by the afHicting
planet from whence misfortune is apt to come, and the afflicting
planet the characteristics of the misfortune The harmonious
aspect shows by the house occupied by the beneficial planet from
DruNrvrmc the Horoscope 159
whence the good fortune is apt to come, and the beneficial planet
the characteristics of the good fortune The predisposition is to
ha\c misfortune m some respects and good fortune m other re
spects relative to the department of life
Yet it has been pointed out in Chapt-r Three that the easiest
thing to change is the desire of the thought-cells for a specific
event, and that it is not too difficult to change the desires of the
thought-cells so that they will want and strive to bring to pass,
more beneficial thoughts, behavior and events Therefore these
predispositions toward fortune or misfortune relative to any given
department of life, or relative to any specific condition affecting
it, should not be considered as indicating inevitable conditions
They mcrcl) indicate whether or not the thought-cells influencing
a department of life have been corrcctl) or badly educated bffore
human birth, and point out which thought-cells should have
special and persistent reeducation so that they also vv ill work for
those conditions which the individual desires
Some factors in the life, such as short jouni'-ys and children,
belong to but one department of existence, and their predisposi
tions can be judged from a single house Others such as mar
nagc, involve two departments and several factors while health
involves two departments—mapped by the first and sixth houses
—and every planet in the chart Little further explanation need
be given relative to single house affairs for the prominence,
characteristics and aspects of the planet or planets ruling the
house is all that is required But we do n*cd to understand about
those more complex phases of existence in which various factors
are involved
Judging Personal Appearance—The thought-cells of the soul
in influencing physical results of any kind can only bring about
the fulfillment of their desucs m so far as factors in the physical
environment will permit without offering too great resistance
This applies to the stature and appearance of the physical body,
which may be altered during its growth by food and climate,
and is always influenced by the heredity genes which form the
physical link by which race and family characteristics stored up
m their astral counterparts arc transmitted to the astral body
of the child
This means that a chart indicating hght complexion sigiufics
light only m comparison to other members of the same race.
No planetary positions are likely to give a hooked nose to one
belonging to a straight nose race, nor arc they likely to give
curly hair to one belonging to a straight haired race Tall is a
160 Begpvner s Horo^copt Reader
relative term, not only where race is concerned, hut also fainOy
A person may be the tallest member of his family, and yet be
short by ordinary standards Race characteristics arc much more
pronounced in the ph)sical appearance of people than in their
temperament, disposition, mental abilities and characters And
thus, in judging the physical appearance, race and family hercd
ity must always be considered as offering great physical resistance
to any desires of the thought-cells to depart ladically from this
physical pattern
The general trend of the personal description given by each
sign and planet is as follows
ARIES Middle stature, spare, strong body, bushy eyebrows,
dark hair, rather swarthy
TAURUS Short, thickset, dull complexion, large mouth, dark
hair and eyes

4. So far as the weight and contour is concerned the foimli
factor, which is the dominant planet, has little significance. The
dominanti or ruling planet—not to be confused with the ruler
of the personality (Ascendant)—usually stamps its impress on
the countenance in such a manner that one familiar with the
appearance given by the planets at once notices its influence.
This dominant, or ruling planet^ is the one which has the most
prominence in the chart.
Judging Temperament and Disposition—As influencing the
trend of the temperament and disposition, there arc also four
different factors that need to be considered in the following
order of importance:
1. First of all the dominant, or ruling planet, indicates that
group of thought-cells which has greatest activity, and therefore
most powerfully influcntcs the thoughls and behavior, as well
as the events attracted into the Lfc, It is more Important than
any other single factor in indicating temperament and disposition.
2. Next in importance is the personality, indicated by the
rising sign and any planet, or planets, in the first house. Any
planet in the first house, or within 15 degrees above the cusp
of the first house, has more influence in this respect than the
sign on the Ascendant. But, in addition to the general tendencies
thus revealed, each aspect to the planet which is shown to be chief
ruler of the personality (first house), and each aspect to the de-
gree on the Ascendant, indicates a tendency of the disposition.
3. Of third Importance is the mentality as indicated by the
sign occupied by the Moon. Each aspect to the Moon indicates
a definite trend of the mentality. Ibis is not the same as the
faahty for expression, which is ruled by Mercury. It is a deeper
quality of the mind.
4. Fuially, the sign occupied by the Sun shows those deep-
seated trails of character that arc most permanent, even though
they may be obscured much of the dmc by the more superficial
traits of the personality. Each aspect to the Sun indicates a
definite trend to the character.
Judging Character- Character, as distinct from those traits
which arc most obvious to others, embraces the whole organtza-
Dcuneatinc the Honascorr 163
tion of thought<clls which constitutes the soul The most deep-
seated of these, and those which can be counted on to resist
change, arc indicated by the same four factors that reveal tcm
perament and disposition, but in a different order of importance,
thus
1 Not because it maps as deep seated and persistent thought
cells as those mapped by the Sun, but because it maps the most
active and powerful thought-cells withm the finer form, the
dominant, or ruling, planet must be given first place m apprais
mg character
2 Then comes the Sun as mapping the thought-cells whose
qualities arc most deep seated and permanent of all, even though
they may be less active than various others
3 Of third importance in appraising the character, because it
indicates the type of impressions most readily received and there
fore the mental viewpoint, is the sign occupied by the Moon
4 Finally, because to express through the personality the
character must express through the first house and reach the
outside world through the ground wire of the Ascendant, the
rising sign and rising planet should receive some consideration
The aspects to the planets involved in each of these four factors
arc of significance in showing fortunate and unfortunate events,
and as giving trends to the character mdicatcd by the aspccting
planets But such matters as honesty and dishonesty, social con-
duct and anti social conduct, and cnmmal trends are chiefly due
to the conditioning of the individual by his environment after
birth As explained m detail m Chapter Two of WHEN AND
WHAT EVENTS WILL HAPPEN3, no cluld ,s bom a bar or

tune he is seriously attacked by a disease, he succumbs to it But
Beginner's Horoscope Reader
there are many people who have lived even to ninety years of
age who have never had robust health, who have had most of
the diseases as they came along, and jet have had vitality enough
to overcome them and continue with a considerable degree of
usefulness. Th«e people have not had a particularly strong
CONSnTLTTION, but they have had a powerful VITALITY.
And the degree of vitality is mapped in the birth chart by the Sun.
Analysis of the charts of those who have lived long lives shows
that the thought-cell condition mapped by every harmonious
aspect the Sun receives in the birth-chart, or by progression, tends
to benefit the vitality; provided a progressed aspect docs not stir
into activity thought-cells basically discordant. A bencfidal aspect
from Samra, however, apparently indicates no increase in vital
power, but a thought-cdl condition that enables the individual
to conserve and use to best advantage such vitality as he has. Nor
does a harmonious aspect from Neptune show a condition dirccdy
contributing to the vitality. Instead it indicates benefits indirectly
through suggestion and imagination.
When, however. Mars, the planet of physical energy, is in any
aspect to the Sun—provided it is not inimical enough to attract
violent death, or a virulent infection leading to quick death, such
as smallpox or blood poisoning—it shows a tendency toward
length of hfc, because it increases vitality. And the deaths at-
tracted by thought-cells mapped by Mars afflictions of the Sun
arc not due to low vitality, but to impacts or invasions that arc
powerful enough to end life in spite of vigorous vitality and
rccuperathe power.
Next in importance to an aspect of Mars to the Sun, as indicat-
ing recuperative power and length of life, the analysis indicates,
is a harmonious aspect from Jupiter to the Sun. Afflictions of
Jupiter to the Sun show no benefit to the vitality, as do those
from Mars to the Sun.
The more powerful the Sun thought-cells arc within the finer
form, the more vitality is at the disposal of the individual; that
is, the more electrical energy of proper frequenq" and soltage
is generated. This is indicated by 44% of the women and 48%
of the men who li\cd bejond 70 basing the Sun prominent by
being in an angle of their btnh-charts. Of the women beyond
70 jcars, 77% had some aspect of Mars to the Sun in their btrlh-
charts; and of the men bejond 70 yean, 74% had some aspect
of Man to the Sun in their birth-cJiarts. Of the 73 women past
70 years, 39% had a haimontoui aspect of Jupiter to the Sun
DniNnATiist, Tiir Honoscovr 165
at birth, and of the 80 men past 70 years, 5t% had a harmonious
aspect of Jupiter to the Sun in their charts of birth
Every planet in the chart of birth maps its own strength or
weakness of constitution The most active and discordant thought
cells, as mapped by the most heavily afflicted pronuncnt planet,
show the weakest point in the constitution But the Moon, be-
cause it rules the Constitutional Magnetism, is always important
in indicating strength of constitution Thus 40% of the women
and 38% of the men who lived beyond 70 years, had the Moon
in an angle This prominence of the Moon signifies more than
usual activity of the Moon thought-cells, with a correspondingly
strong generation by the nervous system of Constitutional Mag
nctism
The physical body is a replica of the thought-cell body in so
far as physical materials arc at hand for making it so It follows,
therefore, that each planet in the chart maps groups of thought
cells which determine the strength or weakness—that is, harmony
or discord—of some particular part of the physical body Planets
aspccting Sun, Moon or Mercury arc more important as indi
eating particular strengths or weaknesses because the thought
cells they map have direct access to the electromagnetic energies,
through which alone planetary or other astral energies can reach
the physical, or physical forces influence the astral But each other
planet also maps a tendency to strength or weakness in a given
part of the physical body
It will now be seen that the length of life is dctcrmmcd by
the relative power between the weaknesses mapped by the ten
planets—for even the Sun may map a structural weakness—and
the vitality mapped in the birth-chart and by progression by the
Sun So long as the Sun forces arc the stronger, the individual
lives When they become insufficiently powerful—either through
discords such as inharmonious aspects to the Sun indicate, or
through lack of volume of energy—to carry the organism on

fudging the Health—The sixth house indicates association with
illness Doctors, nurses and dentists have very active sixth houses
But while the sixth house denotes the various conditions, such
as the services rendered by others, and the general environment,
during illness, it commonly docs not indicate the type of illness
to which the person is most predisposed
If a malefic is in the sixth, however, or if the ruler of the
sixth is severely afflicted, such affliction, because directly associated
166 Begin rÊR's Horoscope Reader
with the •ompartmcnt of the finer form which governs illness,
has greater power to attract illness, and to predispose toward
the kind of illness thus indicated, than if the afflicted planet
were in, or ruled, any other bouse
The most powerful afflictjon in the birth-chart indicates the
type of illness toward which the indmdual is most predisposed
And if the first house (health) and the sixth house (illness) arc
heavily afflicted, the tendency toward illness is greatly increased
For each disease there arc a few well defined factors which
arc constantlj present in the charts of all who hasc that disease.
These arc called the Buth-Chart Constants of the disease.
Likewise it is found that at ihc time the disease mamfcts
there arc equally well defined and constant major progressed
aspects These are called the Progressed Comtanir of ihe disease
These constants arc ascertained b) analyzing the birth-charts
of too persons who hate had a given disease, and by analyzing
the major progressed aspects at the time disease became nofcceablc

more common of the senous diseases, and are set forth in tables,

judging Mental Ability—The mental attitude, and the general
trend of the mental processes as influenced by the unconscious
mind and the impressions received are shown by the sign posinon
and aspects of the Moon. The thought-cells mapped b) the Moon
indicate the most open avenue by which impressions and mforma
tion from the outside world find access to the unconscious mind,
and by which the unconscious mind influences the objective mind
Evcr> planet aspccting the Moon thus indicates a capacity for
understanding things of the nature of that planet
The general trends of the cerebral processes in which reasoning
classified observation and the formulation of words and sentences
arc employed which arc so css-ntial to gee information across
to others, are shown by the sign position and aspects of Mercury
Every aspect Mercurj receives indicates ability to think about
and express ideas of the nature of the aspccting planet. It indi
cat a a certain facihtj for learning about the matters which the
aspccting planet rules
Every aspect to the Moon and Mercury, either harmonious or
discordant increas-s mental opacity or mental ability Every
planet aspccting the Moon shows unconscious trams of thought
DriJNr.vnNO rnr Honoscorr. 167
concerning the things denoted in the chart by the planet. Every
aspect to Mercury increases the facility for expressing the char-
acteristics indicated by the planet making the aspect If the aspect
is harmonious the thoughts, unconscious or expressed, arc pleas-
ant, but if discordant they have disagreeable associations.
Should there be too many powerfully discordant aspects to
these two planets, the mentality may crack under the strain.
Those who sulTcr mental derangements have either Moon or
Mercury, and usually both, heavily afflicted at birth, and when
they break they have a progressed aspect to one or both of these
planets, and heavy progressed afflictions. But however badly
afflicted the Moon and Mercury arc at birth, or by progressed
aspect, mental derangement docs not follow if the chart is other-
wise strong and well balanced. Those who do become psycho-
pathic have other weaknesses in their charts which make it diffi-
cult to withstand strain.
For mental activity the Moon and Mercury should have strong
aspects. And best of all for mental expression arc those between
Mercury and the Moon; for then the unconscious mind, ready
access to which is indicated by the Moon, finds immediate access
to trams of thought in the objective mind. The more prominent
Mercury U in the chart, other things being equal, the more ability
is shown for hard study, and for expressing the thoughts in speech
or writing.
While the Moon maps the most open avenue to the uncon-
scious mind from the physical world, and Mercury maps the
facility of cerebral expression, we must not overlook that the soul
itself is thought-built, and that every planet in the birth-chart
maps a group of thought-built thought-cells. The mapping of the
whole mentality, therefore, must include every planet and aspect
in the chart. The mental processes can only express what the
character contains, and it docs express with different degrees of
facility, all that the character, or soul, possesses. Thus the Moon
and Mercury alone do not indicate the mental ability; merely
those phases of the whole mentality, soul, or character which im-
press the attitude and the ability to express with most facility.
Therefore, for a fuller appraisal of mental ability it is necessary
in addition to the Moon and Mercury, to consider the Sun-sign
as indicating deep-seated trends which influence methods of
thinking ana expression, the Ascendant and its chief ruler as
indicating the personality through which expression must take
place, and the ruling, or dominant planet, as mapping the most
1(18 JirciiNm's Hoboscope RnAnrn
active group of thought-cells which because of their activity arc
sure to influence the thinking and method of expression. These
five arc most important; but of course, to gauge the mental ability
completely every planet and aspect in the chart must receive
scrutiny.
Judging the Vocation—Deciding what vocation an individual is
best fitted to follow is so important that a complete book, HOW
TO Sni-HCT A VOCATION,* ha« Ikvii devoted to it. To make
this book as reliable as statistics can make such a volume, and
to present a textbook completely covering the subject of vocational
selection, during 18 years the timed birth-charts of 100 persons
who followed each of 30 different representative vocations were
collected and analysed. Both the tables resulting, and the findings
that followed this long and intcnjjvc study, arc presented in this
book.
Such knowledge is important not merely bcausc it prevents
those of maturity from continuing as round pegs in square holes,
bur because it can be applied to a child be/ore its schooling is
begun. The aptitudes which later in life it will be called on to
Use, if it is to become most successful, can thus be given special
opportunity for early training.
Instead of training the child in such a general manner that
it is fitted for no special calling, or training it for some vocation
that it will spend several adult years learning it is unsuitcd to
follow before turning ro something else, the child, in addition to
its general education, can early be given opportunity to develop
those taJcnis which it will find most useful later in life. Here
only the general principles of such vocational selection can be
pointed out.
Each planet in the birth-chart maps its own kind of natural
aptitude, and each house indicates the power to attract certain
activities. The more prominent a planet, irrespective of whether
its aspects arc harmonious or discordant, the more natural apti-
tude of that particular type the individual possesses. And the more
active a house, the greater power the individual has of attracting
the association ruled by that house.
But for success, ability, which arises from training a natural
aptitude, is only one-half of the requisites. The other half is
what is called The Luc\ Factor. This arises from the tendency
of the thought cells to find facilities for attracting good fortune
amid some associations and for attracting misfortune amid other
associations. However much ability an individual may have.

planets in the chart of birth give opportunity for the thought
cells thus mapped to bring good fortune into the hfc Careful
analysis of the birth.charts and lives of a great many people
indicates that the associations arc as important for succ-ss as
arc the abilities
fudging Finances—In reference to the pow cr to gain money,
the harmon) and activity of the second house thought-cells arc
of chief importance In judging this the influence of any planet
in the second house, and the planet ruling its cusp, as well as
the aspects of this planer, should be considered That is, as pointed
out in Chapter Four, Uranus in this house indicates sudden gains
and sudden losses and that original ideas may be made to pay
financial dividends, Neptune in this house indicates either that
monc> comes with little effort or not at all, and that there is
need for developing practical ideas about financial matters etc
Jupiter and Saturn are the financial planets. Jupiter, when
prominent and well aspectcd, shows power to attract wealth,
and Saturn when prominent and well aspectcd shows power to
keep it If one or both of these two planets is afflicted, it decreases
the business ability, but even so most successful business men
have some afflictions to one or both of these planets, often very
heavy afflictions to one of them They succeed not because they
never lose, but because their gains arc, on an average, greater
than their various losses
Third in importance relative to making money is the condition
of the thought-cells mapped by the tenth house This house has
directly to do with business and credit
And finally it is found that the Sun and Moon should be
considered m the power to attract money The Sun thought-cells
sh»w the power to attract gold, or its equivalent, and the good
will of those m authority The Moon thought-cells show the
power to attract silver and the good will of the common people
Therefore, if the Sun is well aspectcd and prominent and the
Moon is afflicted, it is a waste of energy to try to promote small
sales to many people The efforts instead should be turned
to important ventures in which if they arc successful the returns
on each Will be large On the other hand if the Moon is pro-
17(1 Brcivwrn«; HoRo<corr Bmofh
rrnncnt md well ajpcctcd, and the Sun is licaMl) afllictcd, more
success will follow making numerous small Irantactioni, depend
ing on the \olume of such transactions to bring in adequate
returns The fnc and ten stores arc an excellent example of utiliz
ing a good Moon, together with harmonious Jupiter and Saturn
to give business sense
When the three factors of business success—flic tenth house,
the Sun, and the business planets, Jupiter and Saturn—arc weak
and much afllictcd, it is better for the individual not to go into
business for himself, but to be content to work m the employ
of others Business success and ability to gam moncj arc not
the same Some people who work for salaries make far more
monc) than those who m a business of their own arc considered
quite successful Others acquire money through gifts, marriage,
or inheritance
A harmonious tenth house is a favorable indication an mdivi
dual cm make a success of a business of his own If he is to
boss others successfully in the enterprise, he should ha\e a pro-
minent Sun Discordant aspects to the Sun indicate difficulties
arising from the exercise of authont) A Sun lacking in promin
cncc indicates lack of ability to exercise authority
Jupiter indicates the ability to sell to advantage, and to attract
business opportunities Saturn mdicntcs bargaining ability, shrewd
ncss, and foresight Thc> do not directly indicate the reputation,
or credit, which is so essential to business success, for this is
indicated by the tenth house, but the acuvity and harmony of
the thought.c-lls they map arc largely responsible for business
judgment and luck in business
fudging Irgal Matters—The seventh house thought-cells in
dicate the general relations with other people. If the s-venth
house is hcasily afflicted the relations with others may hnng
conflict, and conflict may result in recourse to the law The more
afflicted the seventh house the more damage the adscrsary is
able to bring about People with harmonious planets in the seventh
seldom have law suits But an afflicted Saturn there shows dif
ficulties that may take the individual into court, an afflicted
Mars there indicates a tendency to strife with others that may
end in the courts, and an afflicted Uranus there shows contro-
vcrsics or separations that the co-urt may be called upon to
settle.
The luck where the law ikclf is concerned, that is, the atntudc
of the judge and jury, is indicated by the planet ruling the ninth
house ancTits aspects The appearance of the individual, or other
Drusrvri'sr Tiir Ilonoscnn 171
circumstances, ma) cause the judge and jury to fed kindly dis
posed, or less kindly disposed Saturn in the ninth, for instance,
if well aspcclcd, indicates a court that is severe and just and not
swayed b> appeal to emotions Rut a well aspectcd Jupiter in
the ninth indicates a court inclined to guc the individual every
benefit of a doubt
fudging Lore—The afTcctional relations in general depend
upon the activity and the harmony of the thought-cells mapped
b) Venus These affcctional relations embrace the sausfactory
and unsatisfactory emotions arising from contacts with the
husband or wife, the children, the parents, the brothers and sisters,
and the friends This satisfaction of the emotions in general, or
their lack of satisfaction, must be judged from the prominence
and aspects of Venus alone
But in reference to the satisfactory emotional relations with
a person or persons belonging to any one of these categories,
this general indication shown by Venus must be combined with
the influence of the planet ruling the house reprcscnung the
particular person or persons And this planet plays the leading
role Thus the success of the affections where friends arc con
ccrncd is not to be judged hy Venus alone, but chielly by the
ruler of the eleventh house, and the success of the affections
where brethren arc concerned is shown chiefly by the ruler of
the third house, with Venus playing a minor part
The success of affcctional relations both w here children and
love affairs arc concerned is to be judged chiefly from the fifth
house Venus may play an important part m love making, but
some love making has very little of the Venus quality of affection
in it If Mars is the ruler of the fifth, love making will attract
strife, if Saturn is the ruler of the fifth, either loss or responsibility
is attracted through love making, if Uranus b the ruler of the
fifth, unusual conditions arise in relation to love making
However, if at the same time Venus is well aspectcd, the in
dications shown by the fifth house arc somewhat modified favor
ably, but if Venus is badly afflicted the indications shown by
the fifth house arc somewhat modified discordandy
Judging Marriage—Marriage is more than a partnership There
fore it must be judged by other factors in addition to the seventh
house The seventh house merely indicates the tendency relative
to partnerships in general If the Sun is in the seventh it indicates
a partner of prominence, if Mercury is there, a partner of inlcl
lectual interests, etc, as indicated m Chapter Four Thus from
the planet m the s'vcnlh, or less precisely from the planet ruling
172 UrriNNrn* Hoiioscopl JlPADrn
(he cusp of (he seventh, can be judged the type of partners in
general that will be attracted
How the partner thus indicated tends to affect the hfc is shown
by the aspects of the planet thus indicating the partner If this
planet is in aspect to (lie planet ruling money, the partner will
tend to affect finances, if it is in aspect to the planet ruling
friends, the partner will influence the friends The nature of
the influence is shown by the hey word of the aspect as given
in Chapter Three
Marriage, however, is a partnership involving the opposite sex
Therefore, the planet ruling the opposite sex must also be given
consideration The Sun is the ruler of the male sex, and the Moon
is the ruler of the female sex If the Sun is well aspcctcd in a
woman s chart, it indicates harmony and good fortune through
associating with men If the Sun is afflicted, men in general tend
to attract trouble Furthermore, as a general rule, the aspects to
which the Sun applies in a woman s chart indicate the men who
come into her life prominently enough (hat there is thought
about and probably opportunity for marriage If the first aspect
made by the Sun after birth is Co a square of Saturn, it indicates
a man who is old, selfish, or ill, through whom if marriage
tabes place there is apt to be loss If the second aspect made by
the Sun after birth is a trine to Mercury, let us say, this indicates
an intellectual man with whom there would be much less dif
ficulty than with the Saturn man indicated by the first aspect
In a mans chart, the affect of women m general upon his
life is indicated by the Moon and its aspects If the Moon is
much afflicted, women in general tend to cause him trouble
But if the Moon is well aspcctcd association with women will
tend to bring good luck
The first aspect the Moon completes after birth as a general
rule indicates (he first opportunity of a man to marry If the
aspect is weak, it may merely bring thoughts of marriage But
the planet thus aspcctcd indicates the outstanding characteristics
of the woman If the first aspect made by the Moon is harmonious,
and the second one is discordant the man will be more fortunate
in marriage if he marries his first love However, the-charactcmtics
of the woman will show whether she is the one indicated by the
harmonious aspect She will show the Jupiter characteristics if
she is indicated by Jupiter, and the characteristics of any other
planet that thus indicates her
In so far as the affcctional relations arc expressed in marriage,
the prominence and aspects of Venus must be considered The

what he probably will think, probably will do, and what events
probably will come into his life as the result of the activity and
desires of these thought<clls. On the contrary, its chief value
lies in indicating how he should change the degree of activity
and the desires of these thought-cells which comprise his soul
so that they will enable him to have a life of far greater success,
spirituality and happiness than had he been ignorant of
astrology".
