It seems that most astrologers are like members of the traditional churches. They are comfortable with their belief systems and don't really want to investigate and perhaps see their beliefs overturned. Perhaps one day there will be a new breed of astrologer who will care more about truth than entrenched beliefs. Only then will astrology have a chance for respect in the non-astrological world.

Repeated postings of precise findings using progressed lunar returns elicit no response from what I am perceiving now as a very close minded group. In spite of your post asking for open minded research, you are among those who have not responded to those postings. Actions do speak louder than words. > Perhaps one day there will be a new breed of astrologer who will care more > about truth than entrenched beliefs. RN: I am here today.

Good ASTROLOGICAL RESULTS don't even get respect in the astrological world, consider the non-response to the progressed lunars. Good sounding words though; open minded,truth, respect. > Therese Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Bob, I generally don't have much to say about progressed charts, either lunar or solar because I don't progress charts and have little understanding of the techniques involved in progression. I use a Jyotish program where the empahsis on timing events is entirely different than techniques used in the west. Re: Progressions, I can comprehend that certain figures are very close, but my understanding ends there. Why don't I progress charts? (1) My every day astro program doesn't do progressions. (2) I'm working on so many research projects already and have so much going on in life that there is no time. Besides others are already working with progressions. They don't need a green lady involved too. I suppose the time of astrological specialization is already here. Each of us will have to present what we find, and it's up to the others to pay attention--or not. I know where you're coming from. I've been presenting certain ideas for...maybe 25 years. Who has paid attention? Hopefully it will all be in a book someday for posterity--people who aren't drowning in establishment thinking. (And we all know what Donald Bradley thought of establishment thinking....) So continue your work and set it all down (on computer and on paper) with clearly laid out techniques and examples. Those who care will come around in time. Sincerely, Therese Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
