What May We Learn From Aspects Relative To The Effects Of Planets Upon Our Lives?

We may learn whether the planets (of themselves) promise us good or evil.' For instance if the Sun, was at the "independent"point of a square, (or near it) and any planet was at (or near) either the "domestic," "intuitive" or "ambitious" points of the square, then that planet would promise resistance or difficulty to our heart nature, or higher mind, just as a stream of water, a court of law, or a mountain in our path would disturb the faculty of independence. By keeping still nothing need disturb one's independent thoughts, but with desire to move, these obstacles might offer resistance to our independence, and cause us to be dependent upon something outside, or beyond our ordinary energy to overcome them. If a planet was in "Lordly"or "proud" points of the trine (from "independent") then it would promise us assistance through our own pride, or lordliness, or it might furnish us with assistance from some proud, or lordly person.

Are These Aspects Always To Be Considered From The Same Exact Places As They Are Drawn On Wonder Wheel?

They are drawn under the tablets only to teach the prinicple of trines and squares in astrology. The qualities in nature as printed in the tablets and their aspects as given always hold the same, but the influence of each tablet extends from the centre of one of the obliquity circles to the centre of the next following one. That distance in any circle (great or small) is 30 degrees, and the exact point of any of. the degrees of a sign and the squares and trines of a circle would, of course, change to the same degree, in the other signs. Squares and trines always start from the same point, but do not extend to the same point. There is a drawing that shows the squares and trines of a circle starting from the same point. In the centre, you may catch a slight idea of how the Sunrise affects the face of the earth by these aspects or angles. Our place at Sunrise is at the top of the earth.

Are We Not Always On Top Of The Earth

Yes, wherever we are, that is to us the top, and to us it is the centre of the universe, whether Sun goes around the earth or earth around the Sun. From our own place we can make best calculations and that is what the ancients did and so led us to believe that they thought earth the centre of all space. The Sun, comparatively, does not move, but the earth turns towards the east, so at Sunrise we are top of the earth, west of the Sun; at noon we are "top"directly under the Sun; at evening we are "top" east of the Sun. and at midnight we are top, with the whole body of the earth between us and the Sunlight. Don't you think this makes differences in our thoughts and feelings during the 24 hours?

It Must, But How Does That Affect A Birth?

It affects a birth by inspiring the first breath of the child with the prevailing thought of its worldly environments. The prevailing thought condition of the parents at that time is most faithfully stamped upon the child, so that the sign quality of the Moon at that birth denotes the local surroundings of the child's birthplace. This, of itself, is a most wonderful evidence of the truth of astrology.
