By this it will be seen that civil law is only to protect people from people who are born in planetary bad aspect to each other, and when the law of Astrology is so well known that each individual is able to protect himself by his own will, through his own knowledge of the Divine law, then no civil law will be required. As Jesus said in reference to the civil law: "He that is above the law has no need of the law.

It is in and through and by this knowledge that the benefit of Astrology to the world, can be most wisely appreciated, more than in the attempt, by its aid, to find 20 dollar gold pieces rolling up hill, on the fortune telling line of the art.

By what I have written, it may be seen that it is not necessary to know whether or not Saturn is a bad or Jupiter a good planet. Any planet in the heavens, at any time, when normal, is good, and operates in life, free and unrestrained, but when in aspect, then it is not free. It is then in partnership with the aspecting planet, and jointly expresses itself in the world life through the person upon whom such planets hold a partnership claim.

A planet is considered to be free or normal when no other planet in the same sign, or in any other part of the heaven is within five degrees of the self same degree that the planet is in.

These five degrees, both sides of the planet, are called the "short orb of the planet." The long orb is from eight to ten degrees, but after the five degrees the effect might be termed semi-normal. A planet (meaning, of course, the person affected by the planetary conditions) is considered to be abnormal, or influenced, for worldly good or evil, when any other planet is in the same sign, or in any other part of the heavens within five degrees of the self same degrees that the planet under consideration is in.

When any one planet is anywhere in the heavens within five degrees of the degree of a sign, in any other part of the heavens, then these planets are raid to be in aspect to each other for good or for evil.

Neither one of them is free nor normal, but each of them is influenced by the X-rays of the other.

For convenience of expression I say the planets are so and so, but it is not the planets at all. It is the tendency of the people upon this earth who are from time to time affected by the X-rays of the planets. These X-rays reveal in the human being such special characteristics as are only shown by the X-rays of a particular planet, as above described. Every human being has within him all the known characteristics of both saint and devil, but these particular characteristics do not come to the surface of our present life only when the proper planet, whose power it is to reveal, casts its light upon the particular life, either normally or abnormally.

So when a person is born with all the planets free from each other then (so far as the law of these orbs are concerned) the being born is of normal birth, and is more free from both assistance or detriment, through others, than the majority of people are, and each of these planets would instill into such a person's life, the characteristics and the tendencies as given in the foregoing description of the normal planets.

Herein, then, we have learned the normal attributes of the planets, as expressed in a human being, by the planets at birth.

The great majority of us are under the abnormal law, for all aspects, conjunctions, or parallels, of one planet with another destroys the normal power of both planets in their operations upon the human life which comes under such aspects.

Their influences upon life depend entirely upon their aspects to the Sun and Moon, and the Sun and Moon's aspects to them.

"Oh, no," cries some one, "they have aspects with the cusps of Horoscope Houses." Well, what virtues I ask, have these cusps of Houses, except such as come from the Sun and Moon, whose movements make the cusps of Houses? With this hint in view, take an Ephemeris and find where in the Signs the planets were at birth and then judge them as follows:

Sun is normally noble, magnanimous, yet proud and lofty, fond of distinction, a good friend, a generous enemy. When afflicted he is arrogant, mean, vain and ignorantly pompous.

Moon is normally of mild manners, fond of novelties of familiar scenes.

and yet inclined to ramble in thought or action; solicitous of the present; easily moved, peaceful and careless. When afflicted she is idle, discontented, beggarly and more or less stupid.

When in good aspect with Sun or Moon then, Uranus gives pleasant journeys, re-movals or changes, unexpected gain, and favorable dealings with opposite Saturn gives conservative gain, personal prosperity or popularity through steady habits, soberness of manners and conservative people.

Jupiter gives financial gain, or increase of health, honor, business, friends, pleasure or marriage.

Mars gives forceful activity, energy, courage, social gain, health and success through push, but females under any aspect of Mars should guard against opposite sex.

Venus gives happiness, pleasure, love, marriage or courtship, or, if married, is apt to give offspring. It is a cheerful, lovable and favorable time.

Mercury gives nervous activity In study, travel, business and prosperity, or success through the intellectual or passional forces.

Sun to Moon, or Moon to Sun gives business increase, friendships, good connections or associations, good health, and sometimes marriage.

The bad aspects give the exact reverse of what Is above given.

Bad aspects are when a planet is by count, 4, 6, 7. 8, or 10 Signs from place of Sun or Moon always counting the place of Sun or Moon as 1.

Good aspects are in like manner by count, 2, 5, 9, or 11 Signs from place of Sun or Moon.
