Guest guest Posted April 27, 2003 Report Share Posted April 27, 2003 If statistics were done on astrologers and the way they practice it, I am sure the results would show that less than 5%, practice sidereal astrology.I think I am being very generous in my estimate, because practically all the books and articles,published in the west, that deal with astrology, are based on the tropical zodiac. I think a more approximate guess would be a 3%. In my opinion, those of us who had dwelved into the sidereal zodiac, are characterized by having a more analytical mind and intellect, because the moment we decided to look for another approach, was because we already had found that the tropical astrology offered us very little concordance between what the texts said and how the events unfolded. It would be very stupid to change the zodiac if it shows to work. Another thing I had observed is that once the astrologer has changed from tropical to sidereal zodiac, he has no reverse gear and never switches back to the tropical. Why? Because probably he starts to find more connection between the postulates and the events. This is why I am mesmerized reading here postings were some few members,instead of making up their minds, still try to congratiate themselves with the tropicalists and dare to make statements such as " both zodiacs work " ,or what is even worst, develop abstruse theories such as that there are 2 persons inside a human being(?),or that there are 2 realities(?) so with one zodiac you can read the inner and with the other the outer personality(?). Probably they refer to the twilight zone? Concepts like these must make Jung and his colleages turn constantly in their graves. Since we are members of a sidereal astrology list, I thought we all had already accepted the sidereal zodiac as a more representative model. It is not congruent or appropiate, to to a sidereal list to defend the alleged virtues of the tropical zodiac. Why to do that if there are plenty of tropical lists in the internet? It is the same as to enter into a catholic church to adore and veneer Mahoma! An example: Blair's Chart Let's analyze the chart of Tony Blair, succintly, under the sidereal and tropical approaches, and you will find easily which one reflects more appropiately his life. By the way, I will put under your consideration the hindu domification, not the Fagan's way , so you can decide which one fits more. According to Rodden, Blair was born on May 6 1953 at 6:10 am in Edinburgh, Scotland. It was daylight time. TROPICAL CHART with placidus domification shows he has 1)FIVE planets in his 12th house, which tropical theory delineates as the house of self undoing and enemies, obstacles, psychomatic and emotional difficulties,etc,etc. ( I would loved to have been born with those 5 in my 12th if that allows me to be prime minister) 2) The ruler of the 10th is placed in his 6th house, not a very good house. 3) The ruler of his ascendant is placed in his 12th( read point #1) 4)Nor planet is exalted nor placed in a good house with the exception of the moon. How the hell can you explain his rise and success with those planetary placements? My explanation: Because most of the astrologers had put apart reason and logic, have no analytical mind and are characterized by the lack of discernment and sound judgement. Unfortunately this is true. SIDEREAL CHART with hindu domification: 1) Mars and Jupiter in the first house. This is the house related with character, personal appearance, the way you express yourself( in an energetic and passionate way, with fiery planets such as jupiter and mars.) Now the bells are ringing! You start finding more correspondence.Jupiter was found by Gauquelin to be placed frequently in the ascendant of the politicians and generally blesses the person with many fortunate events in his life. Plus Jupiter rules his 11th house of friends, so neccessary in politics. And last but not least, mars rules his 7th house of allies and wars. He does not hesitate to embark in military actions when he consider it is necessary to do it. 2)The ruler of his 10th house now is placed in his 5th house, a very good house by hindu standards.Ad what is better, it aspects the lord of the ascendant. 3)The ruler of his ascendant is now venus , a good planet, placed in a good house, the 11th , so convenient for charisma.And it is enhanced now,because instead of being in aries, venus is now in piscis where it falls favorably as it is exalted. Would you be surprised then to know that as a youngster he was interested in theatrical productions? Of course not. 4)The sun, altough placed in his 12th house, is exalted in aries, so it indicates that he is a prototype of what astrologers call arian character. Or do you still think, after his belicist position against Iraq, that he is a calmed and reflexive taurean like Hitler, according to tropical zodiac? 4) Mars and jupiter being placed now in the same house and sign, obey to the same lord: venus.With the tropical chart they belong to different signs. There are a lot of additional points I could mention, but since this is a sidereal list, I don't think I need to convince anybody. In the case I find that I really need to do it, than I am in the wrong list and better should move on. Sincerely yours, Alfonso Osorio The New Search - Faster. Easier. Bingo.
