The Wheel as a whole is a grand circle of the earth, represented by Days and Months, surrounded by the Zodiacal Circle represented by Signs. They are so ingeniously combined, and so filled with detail and correspondences that it is an Ever-Ready Reference.

It is convenient for any ordinary or daily requirement in Astronomic or Astrologic work.

It answers also quite well in a business office as a Calendar, or an Almanac.

The more familiar one becomes with it the more uses will be found for it. Some of its features we herewith enumerate:

1. - A Concise Character Reader.

2. - A Recorder of Years of Life.

3. - An Easy Method of Considering the Age of Life.

4. - A Record of the Length of Nights and Days Around the Earth for the Latitude of Washington.

5. - Approximated Sunrise.

6. - Approximated Entry of the Sun into each Zodiacal Sign.

7. - Names, Numbers, Degrees, Lordships and Elemental Qualities of the Signs and their Correspondences with the Days of the Months.

8. - The Planetary Hours for all Times of the Year.

9. - The Decanates and Terms of the Planets.

10. - The Names and Location in Signs, of the Fixed Stars, and Their Qualities.

11. - The Planetary Rulers of each Week Day.

12. - The Differences in time at Several Principal parts of the World.

13. - The Calendar Days of the Months, Represented by a Circle of Rings., each Ring corresponding to 5 days of the Sidereal year and corresponding to 5 degrees of the Zodiac. This Circle is the Basic of all calculation in "Time, Time and the Dividing of Time," whether in seconds, minutes, hours, days, months, years or centuries. From its never-changing laws (as the Circle of the Earth), all movements of Time, or Bodies in Space, are calculated, as relative or corresponding values. Knowing the movements of the other bodies from time to time, their course, and their angular relationship to the earth and to each other, may be very closely approximated. The Days of the Month as marked about the Circle of Days denote, by their position in the Circle, the Sign the Sun is in on that day, in its apparent annular revolution.

13. - The Clock Hours of the Civil Day, arranged from a point marked "Noon," above the photo, to a white star below the photo, 12 hours for P.M. and from the star to "Noon" 12 hours for A. M. Standing on the earth, facing South, with Wheel before you, and the Sun will be in the angle of the hour as marked, day or night.

By this, knowing the Hour of one's Birth you may know the angle the Sun was in at that Birth. That angle would be the 1st House of the Sun, but, in a Horoscope it would be the House as per the Number of the Sign, which, on the Wheel, stands outside of the Clock Hour. This would be a fact, regardless of the Mathematical Horoscope. The Sun would be in the Sign corresponding with the date of the year.' Calling that sign, then, the House of the Horoscope as so found by the Angle of the Hour, and one would only have to count each other Sign backward or forward to find the even Hour Ascendant, or any other even hour House, and this answers most purposes in quick Astro-logic readings, but several other methods are given in the Lessons. Divide the length of day by the Planetary House Rule, and the Houses from the Sun point may be fairly well proportioned unevenly. All of these operations, however, are but foolish waste of time, unless the hour of birth is positively known.

14. - A quick and comprehensive idea of squares and trines is given in the black and white drawings about the photo. The squares are drawn to the 1st degree of the Signs and the Trines to the 15th. Both of them alike answer from any other degree in the Sign.

Influences From Any Point In The Zodiac

Showing how influences from any point in the Zodiac cross and blend with each other and with the Sun, Earth or Birth Point as a centre.

When a planet is in any Sign, it forms squares and trines to the other Signs, as shown by the drawing. The trines denote good to and from those other Signs, and at the times of the year as per the Circle of Days. The squares denote evil. (See Birth Number, page 2, of Lessons.) The Tablets at these points denote qualities that work good or bad in our lives, and the parts of the body marked at that point are for good or ill affected by the planet which aspects these points. The Tablet is the Key Word to the Solar or Spirit force. Its aspect denotes its harmony or discord with the other forces, or phases of mind. (See Table of Symbols, page 4.) If Sun was in Cancer, and Mars in Aries, and Jupiter in Scorpio, then a martial expression of "Independence" would create discord in the "Domestic" sphere, by square, while Jupiter by trine from Scorpio, would palliate by a "Magnetic" condition of "pride." Thus learn to combine good with evil, and not condemn on one testimony. The Basic Nature of Sun will always in the long run of life assert itself, in spite of its apparent lack of manifestation at times.

The trines and the squares (we call the opposite a square) from the Sun point of birth, will always prevail in the run of life, for when the others are discordant, they must of necessity be in evil places to it.

The Physical Nature belongs to the Hours - the Hour-scope, or Horoscope, - of the earth, earthy.

The Sentient Nature belongs to the Moon, or Luna-scope.

These are our Triune spheres in life, disposed, or dispositioned, or tempered, by the planets. Our several dispositions in these spheres are differentiated according to the planets which rule the Signs that these moderators are in, or as they are aspected by other planets. The law is simple, but the various combinations which these simple laws create, are beyond our power to compute. Hence all judgments of good and evil may be summed up in detail and elaborated upon, according to the skill of the operator, but he who ignores the fatalities of the lower mind (the Moon) and adheres closely to the laws of the Sun, to which the Moon is but a secondary factor, is best able to keep in the strait and the narrow path. The Solar laws are the foundation of true Christianity. The Lunar laws are the laws of people who dwell on the heath, or lower plane, termed Heathen. Both laws are good, when we act in accordance with the crossing forces between them. This crossing is termed Mediator, or Medial line, and is the true Christ Principle now dawning upon the world, preparatory to the new dispensation when Sun, by precission of Equinoxes, arrives at Aquarius.

The character and the life of every person, for better or for worse, is as the earth and the heavens were at his nativity, and as they have progressed in altered relationships since that time. This wheel, with its lessons, gives each person opportunity of proving the matter, instead of being obliged, by ignorance of these laws, to depend upon the theories of others. "Let every one be convinced in his own mind," said Paul.
