Sun (or earth) moves about one degree a day, or six circles a month, around the whole wheel and one degree extra, in a year. This one degree extra per year is what makes the pro-gressional law of "a degree for a day, and a day for a year." By progression, count one circle for every five years of your life and you can quite readily approximate where your Sun has advanced to since birth, and also Bee what other birthpoints it is in aspect to, and so judge your past, present or future, by the aspect past, present or yet to come. So, too, judge sign it has progressed to, and its horoscopal correspondences and mix these with years and age of life.

The Moon and the Earth revolutions are the horoscopal features of astrology. These are the quickest of all the movements and must depend upon mathematics for accuracy. In ordinary or long-time matters, approximations for Moon may be made at rate of 13 degrees a day. Six circles in two and a half days, 18 circles for a Moon's phase, in seven and a half days, or, at same rate per year, in progression, as Saturn's rate is per month. Judge Earth revolutions per day, same as Sun's per year.

Uranus moves four and a half degrees a year, or, through six circles in seven years. By progression it may always be accounted in its place of birth. Same with Neptune, which had better be left alone for the present

Saturn moves one degree a month, or one circle in five months, or through six circles in two and a half years. By progression it need be considered only in its place of birth.

Jupiter moves through one circle in two months, or through six circles in a year. He hardly moves, by progression, more than 10 degrees in a long life time. When Sun or Moon is within orb of Jupiter's birthpoint, then consider the Jupiter conditions on the increase for years, according to the motion of Sun or Moon, in passing the Jupiter birthpoint. Same with all other birthpoints.

Mars moves through a circle of days in about ten days, or six circles in about two months. By progression, count one circle for every ten years of life, or about nine circles for 90 years, or one degree in two years, half as fast as Sun (or earth).

Venus moves about three times as fast as Mars. One and a half degrees a day, or six circles in 18 days. By progression, 18 days, equal 18 years, hence one circle in three years, or six circles in 18 years.

Mercury moves about four times as fast as Sun (or earth). Better not attend to it, except by mathematics. It varies too much. Helicentrically we judge its variations about the Sun circle, but geocentrically we judge only its four quarters, or phases to earth. They are given by a geocentric method in ephemerides.

With the circle of days and these rates of motion of the various planets, their motion can be quickly counted, from birthpoint, or a horary point, by transitory, or progressional movement, and approximately hit the nail with a good deal of satisfaction, and, with a great amount of benefit to the wise, who can take a hint of the influences about them, without being fastidious over the exact moment of the kick. It is the exact centre of one planet, in aspect with the exact centre of another,that gives the kick,or the exact equilibrium of two planets from the equator (declination). Only the finest of mathematics and an immaculate Judgment can give this exactness, for a planet's latitude, as well as some other features, may often throw a threatened effect off, rendering "a miss as good as a mile." When aspects are near, it is time for us to be cautious, and that is enough for any sensible person to know. We will teach the finer mathematics or the detailed judgments by correspondent courses, the only way in which they can be properly done until astrologic schools are instituted.

Celestial Period Of The Planet

People born within 14 years of each other do not differ much in Neptune qualities. They belong to their particular Neptune generation.

Those born within 7 years of each other do not differ much in their Uranian qualities. They belong to their particular Uranian generation.

Those born within two and a half years do not much differ in their Saturnean qualities. They belong to their peculiar Saturnean generation.

Those born the same year do not differ much in their Jupiter qualities. Those born within 2 months of each other do not differ much in their Martial qualities. Those born within 30 days of each other, do not differ much in their Sun qualities. Those born within 19 days of each other do not differ much in their Venus qualities. Those born within a week of each other do not differ much in their Mercury qualities. Those born within 2 1-2 days of each other do not differ much in their Lunar qualities. and those born within 2 hours of each other do not differ much in their iundane qualities, except in matters of longitude and latitude, or locality of birth. We are speaking of the general condition of the worlds people, born to earth in the same generations, and not as to their personal joys and sorrows, nor their personal fortunes or misfortunes. Each and all differ, in their human attributes or life aspirations and sentiments and beliefs and opinions only as they differ in their relationship to the generations of these respective celestial bodies, as they differently affect the earth.

To get at differences below this point of generation, varying from 14 years down to two hours (or 1 degree of the moon), then we must resort to mathematical hair-splitting, and this wo cannot do unless we have date of birth inside of an hour (1-2 degree of moon) and unless we have the exact minute, we cannot get the horoscope, or scope of that hour because we would not know just when the hour began nor when it ended, and. as each portion of an hour contains as many different virtues as does the entire zodiac, the particular virtue of the horoscope could not be told, nor its horoscopal features depended upon. These hairsplitting findings are the superficial-ites of life, like a corn on the toe, or good or evil coming from one direction rather than from another. It is the the good or the evil, and what matters it from whence it comes, provided it comes. Time within an hour is reckoned by the moon, as correspondent of Saturn, and, as half a degree of moon signifies within 6 months what difference does that insignificant period of time amount to, when the higher laws declare the good or the bad to be positive.
