Problems With The Zodiac

admin — Sat, 09 May 2009 01:19:42 +0000

Two systems of the zodiac developed. The tropical zodiac is a division of the ecliptic, and uses the vernal equinox as its starting point. Each subsequent division of 30° then makes a sign. The sidereal zodiac is firmly connected with the constellations. Western astrologers favour the tropical zodiac, while their Indian counterparts prefer the sidereal
zodiac.

When the ancients first formulated the astrological zodiac, the constellations probably coincided with the twelve-part divisions in the sky. This meant the tropical and sidereal zodiacs were in agreement. However, a very slow process called precession shifts the vernal equinox between the stars. This is because precession causes the Earth’s axis of
rotation to “wobble”.

Since the celestial equator is perpendicular to this axis, it follows that the celestial equator shifts along with it. The ecliptic is unaffected by precession. Hence, the overall effect is that the points where the celestial equator and ecliptic intersect will change. This ultimately causes the vernal equinox to shift. Since the starting point of the tropical
zodiac is the vernal equinox, it follows that the tropical zodiac will start shifting westwards. This means the tropical and sidereal zodiacs will not agree with each other. The effect of precession is not very noticeable, and amounts to a full sign every 2,000
years.

It is logical to deduce that astrology can only be as old as when the constellations coincided exactly with the zodiac (eg. when the constellation Gemini was in the sign Gemini, etc). Specifically, this means the time when the vernal equinox was situated in the constellation of Aries. The vernal equinox is now in Taurus, which means the zodiac
is about 2,500 years old. In fact, the oldest horoscope in existence dates back to about 400 B.C.

Retrograde Movement of the Planets

admin — Fri, 08 May 2009 00:56:24 +0000

Most of the time, the planets in our solar system move eastwards across the sky. However, they sometimes move westwards. This is known as retrograde or “backwards” motion. Take for example, Mars. This is illustrated in the diagram below.

As the orbit of Mars around the Sun is much larger than the orbit of the Earth, the relative movement of Mars appears to be largely tangential. The relative movement of the Earth can vary from being tangential to being normal to the orbit of Mars. The tangential vs. normal movement results in retrograde motion.

a. At point a, movement of the Earth is largely normal to Mars. Hence, it moves “towards” Mars. In turn, Mars seems to be moving “forward” (eastwards) across the sky.
b. At point b, movement of Earth becomes more tangential, with respect to Mars. It hence “catches up” with Mars. The “forward” motion of Mars is retarded at this stage.
c. At point c, Earth moves in a tangential path parallel to Mars. Since the Earth has a higher orbital speed, it “out-races” Mars. Hence, from the Earth, Mars appears to move “backwards” (westwards) across the sky at this stage.
d. At point d, Earth starts to resume normal movement, and moves “away” from Mars. Retrograde movement hence begins to diminish.
e. At point e, Earth resumes normal movement, while Mars continues its tangential motion. This creates the illusion from a geocentric view that Mars resumes its “forward movement” across the sky. This entire process, for Mars, takes about 4 months. In the same way, other planets in the solar system exhibit retrograde behaviour, when seen from Earth. The entire period for retrograde motion to occur also differs from planet to planet. The seemingly arbitrary movements of the planets in the sky led the ancients to believe that they were directly influenced by the gods. Hence the role of the planets as determiners of fate was not an incredible notion in ancient times.

The Role Of Planets in Astrology

admin — Thu, 07 May 2009 00:54:52 +0000

The planets in our solar system play an important role in astrology. Analysis of them involves tracking their ovement across the sky. This is not a simple task, as their motions are varied – some take days or even weeks to record any changes in position. Furthermore, only five of the planets are visible to the naked eye: Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. Uranus, Neptune and Pluto were discovered after the invention of the telescope, in 1781, 1846, and 1930, respectively. Together with Earth, they make up the nine planets of our solar system. It is interesting to note that when astrologers use the term “planets”, they include the Sun and Moon as well. Specifically, the Sun and Moon are referred to as “luminaries”. Listed below is a table of the planets, their astrological symbols and the corresponding
meanings, as claimed by astrologers.

Table of Astrological Characteristics of the Planets

Sun
(From “Making Sense Of Astrology’”)
Life force, self-esteem, power and ambition, authority
(the father); heart, circulation, eyes.
Moon
Sensitivity, inspiration, confusion, exaggeration;
chaos, psychology.

Mercury

Intellect, ability to adapt; nervous system, brain,
speech organs.
Venus

Emotions, eroticism, artistic ability, relationships,
world of art; organs of smell and touch.
Mars

Energy, desire, choleric temperament, courage, force,
military and technical world; muscular system, blood,
genitals.

Jupiter

Philosophical and religious thought, nomadic nature,
financial and judicial world; liver, lungs.
Saturn Concentration, melancholic temperament, earth, soil,
lonely places; bones, skin.
Uranus

Intuition, independence, engineering, revolution,
occultism.
Neptune
Fertility, metabolism, subconscious,consciousness, emotions (the mother); stomach, belly, uterus.

Pluto Turning points, crisis, death.
Unfortunately, the astrological meanings of the planets are derived from analogy, not from scientific study. It is clear that the names of the planets coincide with the names of Greco-Roman gods from antiquity, and each of these gods possessed their own attributes and ruled certain domains of life. The striking thing is that the attributes of the planets
agree with the characteristics and attributes of the Greco-Roman gods. For example, Mercury was commonly known as the god of commerce, and hence the planet Mercury rules commerce in astrology. It is the same with Venus, the goddess of love. The other analogies are derived similarly. Another interesting point to note is that classical astrology worked with only five planets (besides the Sun and the Moon). Only after the invention of the telescope did astrologers
assimilate the other three planets into their works.

Astrological Meaning of the Zodiac

admin — Wed, 06 May 2009 01:19:02 +0000

Each of the signs in the zodiac is supposed to have certain astrological properties. Listed below is a table of the characteristics of the signs, according to the astrologers:

There also exist further divisions of the Zodiac. Using perhaps a smart play of geometry, the ecliptic is further divided using a triangle, a square and a hexagon, as shown below:

The signs located on a triangle are connected with the ancient Greek natural elements of fire, earth, air and water. The division according to the squares are the cardinal signs, the fixed signs, and the mutable signs. The geometrical group formed by the inscribed hexagon are either positive or negative signs. The positives signs are supposed to be masculine, while the negative signs are feminine.

Astrologers also use the positive and negative divisions as interpretation of introversion and extroversion, respectively. Again, like the planets, the characteristics of the signs are based on analogy. It is not hard to see that there is a clear connection between the characteristics and the image of
the sign that is supposed to symbolize them. Take for example, Aries, the Ram. The sign is, according to astrology, energetic, active, impulsive, sprightly and violent. These traits are clearly copied from the characteristics of the animal. Another example is the sign Taurus, which is supposed to be slow, persistent, fertile. It is like its earthly counterpart, the Bull.

The principle of analogy is connected to magical thinking in ancient times. The assumption is made that in some sense an image has the characteristics of whatever it pictures. This type of thinking was known as “cosmic sympathy”, a relation that connected strongly divergent things together. However, analogy cannot be accepted by science as a justification for a claim.

Great Circles on the Celestial Sphere

admin — Tue, 05 May 2009 00:45:44 +0000

A great circle is a circle on a sphere obtained by intersecting the sphere with a plane that passes through the center of the sphere. There are certain important great circles on the celestial sphere.
1. Celestial Equator
The celestial equator is a circle that cuts the celestial sphere into two equal halves, with respect to the poles. It lies above the terrestrial equator.
2. Horizon
The horizon is a circle that cuts the celestial sphere into two halves: one which is visible, and one which is not. It is the “ground level” of the observer. The plane of this great circle is perpendicular to a line joining the point of an observer on the Earth and the zenith, and cuts through the centre of the Earth.

3. Ecliptic
The ecliptic is the annual path of the Sun, with respect to the stars, as seen from a geocentric perspective. The plane of this great circle always makes an angle of 23.5° with the plane of the celestial equator. This tilt is of great importance, as it is responsible for the seasons on Earth.
4. Central Meridan
The central meridan is an imaginary arc which cuts through the north point on the horizon, the zenith, and the south point on the horizon.
5. Prime Vertical
The prime vertical is an imaginary arc which cuts through the east point on the horizon, the zenith and the west point on the horizon.

6. Equinoxes and Solstices
Two great circles intersect at two points diametrically opposite each other. For the celestial equator and the ecliptic, these are the equinoxes. The solstices are the highest and lowest points on the ecliptic, with respect to the celestial equator. We will also use these terms for the times when the Sun is at these points. The spring or vernal equinox
falls on March 21, while the autumnal equinox is on September 23. At the equinoxes, the days and nights are of equal length. The highest point, the summer solstice, falls on June 21, and is the longest day of the year for the northern hemisphere. The lowest point, the winter solstice, is on December 22, and coincides with the shortest day of the year for the northern hemisphere.

Basic Therminology of Astrology

admin — Mon, 04 May 2009 00:34:20 +0000

Astrology is one of the part of primbon. Astrology deals with projective geometry, meaning distances to celestial bodies are inconsequential. Only their relative positions on the celestial sphere are important. In other words, only the angular differences from the Earth matter. We need to define certain key terms to obtain a graphical idea of the celestial sphere.

1. Celestial Sphere
The celestial sphere is an imaginary dome around an observer on Earth. The observer is at the centre of the dome, with all the visible celestial bodies on its surface. It is a model of how the sky appears to us. In reality, the various celestial bodies are not the same distance from the Earth.
2. Celestial Poles
The celestial poles are the centres of rotation of the celestial sphere. They are called the north and south celestial poles (NCP and SCP).

3. Zenith
The zenith is the point on the celestial sphere straight overhead of an observer on the Earth.

4. Nadir
The nadir is the point on the celestial sphere that is directly opposite the zenith.

Methodology of Astrology

admin — Sun, 03 May 2009 00:32:24 +0000

The input data an astrologer needs are the date, place and exact time of birth. These will provide the material for the calculations needed to construct the individual’s horoscope. A horoscope is nothing more than a map or diagram of the various planets’ positions at any one point in time, with respect to the earth. The word “horoscope” is derived from the Greek word “horoskopos”, meaning “hour watcher”. Basic ingredients of the horoscope include the sun-sign, the Ascendant, information on the Houses, the Aspects, etc. The astrologer will then proceed to interpret the horoscope, and hence offer advice.

The heliocentric model places the Sun at the centre of the solar system. The geocentric model places the Earth at the centre of the solar system. Technically, it is not wrong to adopt the geocentric model, as we would be merely
considering different frames of references. We live in a geocentric world. Astrology is preoccupied with how the planets relate to an individual on Earth, and hence their relative positions. Generally, the heliocentric model is good for explaining how things work in the solar system, in accordance with the laws of physics. By contrast, the geocentric
model is suitable for descriptive purposes.

An Introduction to Astrology

admin — Sat, 02 May 2009 00:20:17 +0000

Astrology is the belief that there exists a meaningful relationship between the positions of celestial bodies and human experience, and that we can systematically determine this relationship.

A common misconception is to confuse astronomy with astrology. Astronomy is the scientific study of the universe. Astrology is “astromancy”, or divination by the stars. An astronomer studies the stars using the scientific method. An astrologer casts horoscopes to predict earthly events, like the fates of nations and individuals. The only possible method to test the validity of astrological influences or predictions is using statistical studies. This means gathering large samples of individuals, tabulating their character traits, and checking if there exists a correlation between these and their horoscopes. This is not the focus of the project. Instead, the aim is to highlight some mathematical problems in the formalism of astrology. The focus is specifically on geometric problems encountered in house division.

Astrology has many faces. There is popular astrology, commonly found in newspapers. There is also serious astrology, which is the casting and interpretation of horoscopes of individuals. Serious astrology is itself sub-categorized. Natal astrology deals with the horoscope calculated at the moment of birth. Horary astrology determines the auspicious
moments to make personal decisions. Mundane or world astrology studies the fates of countries or nations.
