Precession

Dear Bejoy,

This is  nice that you asked this question.I will try to explain in a simple

way.

Each star in the sky has a proper motion. These stars are  moving in all

direction

but in very slow motion i.e about  0.002 sec per year. The motion of each star

though very slow but vary star to star. As these star are very far in the sky

,they  appear almost fixed at a given location . Each star has longitude and

latitude.

By continuous observation since ancient Vadic days , it was found that the

longitudes of

all stars are increasing at a constant rate, though their is no change in their

latitudes.

Astronomers considered two options:

1The stars are moving but the movement of all stars are mostly identical which

was impossible. So this option was discarded

2. The first point of Tropical Aries (which is the intersection  of ecliptic

and celestial

    equator) is shifting backwards .They also observed there was no

appreciable change in the latitudes of the stars. So they came to the

conclusions that celestial equator and first point of the Aeries were moving in

such a way that the longitudes of the stars were increasing. It clarifies that

the vernal equinox is moving backward. The precession of equinoxes is mainly due

to the attraction of sun and moon on the protuberant portions of the earth at

the equator. the result is that the earth has a slow 'wobbling' motion, so that

the point in the heavens (the celestial pole) describes  a  small circle of

about 47degree angular diameter round the pole of the ecliptic. this results

also in change in the identity of the Polar Star from one era to another.

 

When the attracting body reaches its greatest north or south declination, the

disturbance is greatest and zero when they are on the celestial equator. the

luni-solar precession is in the ratio of 7:3 i.e., effect of moon's attraction

is more than twice that of sun i.e, two thirds of the whole. The total of the

two effects amounts to about 50'.35 yearly while that of planetary precession if

0'.11 annually. The mean net annual precession which is also called general

precession is about 50 " .24 each year, on the average.

 

As the distances of the attracting bodies i.e. Sun, Moon,Planets, Asteroids,

Comets etc changes, the value of precession changes. The circle on the celestial

sphere is of only 47 degree diameter  and takes 25,800 years to complete.

 

Its effect are important. Due to shifting of poles, the celestial equator also

moves and in turn the position of vernal equinox that is the first point of

Aries changes.

 

NUTATION

 

the effect of Sun's and Moon's attraction are not constant. moons is sometimes

above and sometimes below the ecliptic and therefore its pull on the equatorial

bulge of the earth is not always in the same direction as that of sun which

results in the nodding of the celestial pole to and from the pole of the

ecliptic. This nodding is called the nutation. The result is that the precession

is some   times more and at other times less than its mean value by about 9

seconds of arc to either side in a period of 18 years 220 days or say 18 2/3

years in which moon's nodes make complete revolution in the heavens.

Thus True Ayanamsa of any epoch may be defined as under:

True Ayanamsa=Mean Ayanamsa +/- Nutation in longitude

As you may have seen in my article that modern Astronomy had recalculated

the constants, the old basis has completely transformed.

Re: Precession

 

Hi Goel Saab,

 

After reading your write up, some doubts remain.

 

One theory says that  the precession of equinox ( PoE ) is happening due to

Luni Solar wobble - that the sun and the moon is exerting differential pull

along the equatorial bulge and the poles causing the equinox to precess w.r.to

back ground stars and as a result, the equinox - say if its happening in Aries

in AD 2000 will precess to pisces and moves west ward since and will be back in

Aries in 25920 earth years.

 

But another theory proposed by Sri. Yukteswar says that our sun is orbiting

another object with an orbital period of 25920 earth years deep in space and

this is why the background stars shift.

 

Which one will you endorse.

 

Regards

 

Bejoy.

Dear Bejoy,

Equinox always recede on ecliptic , thus its declination is always Zero deg.

This is called V.E. point which recedes at a mean rate of 50'.3 sec every year.

(This precession rate is without taking into account Nutation which vary year

to year within +/-9sec)

The present Obliquity of the eclipse is 23deg26'25 " .Latitude of Solstice's will

be

equivalent to obliquity of earth axis with the axis of Sun.This is not effected

with the

precession of Equinox's.

The V.E.POINT always defined as first point of Tropical Aries.

The initial point of Sidereal Zodiac ,which commences from the initial point of

Nakshatra Aswani and most of the Astrologer believe that this point is at 180deg

opposite to Star Chitra (Spica 16).When you say it will enter in over 6000 years

from now in sign Capricorn , this only means that V.E . point will recede  into

Sidereal Capricorn.

Re: Precession

 

 

Hi Goel Saab,

 

Many thanks for this descriptive explanation.

 

If precession completes 1 cycle in about 25920 years.

 

In AD 2000,  If the equinox is in say Aries ( zero degree declination  ) and

the winter solistice is in Capricon ( -23 degree declination ) .

 

So in AD 6480 ( 25920 / 4 ) , will the equinox be in Capricon ?

 

If its in Capricon , in AD 6480 what will be the declination of the equinox

point of earth - will it be zero degrees or -23 degrees ?

 

Regards

 

Bejoy.

Actually, from the point of view of astronomers (not necessarily

astrologers), the equinoxes precess along the ecliptic. The reason I'm

staying with this topic is to highlight the difference between standard

precessional theory and the binary model. From a U.C. Berkeley site (Beth

Napier):

 

" The Earth's precession causes the Equinoxes to move with respect to he

background constellations of the Zodiac. Because of the Earth's precession,

the dates of the Equinoxes gradually change over a 26,000 year cycle... "

 

>It is the Earth's slight wobble that leads to that effect, which we call

> " precession " . You could say

>that, from that point of view, it is the tropical zodiac that is " fixed "

>and the sidereal zodiac that " moves " .

 

This is what Walter Cruttenden and his supporters are questioning: they say

that so-called " precession " isn't due to an earth wobble, but to the

movement of the solar system through space. In that case, it would indeed

be the sidereal system that is " precessing. " The inter-solar system

(earth-Sun) would be stable and fixed except for a small amount of nutation

with the binary theory. The equinoxes would not be creeping backward at

all. It would just look like they were to us. Precession as it's understood

now is a local Sun-earth system. Precession with the binary theory is a

cosmic movement--the entire solar system is moving.

 

So my question was, " If the binary model is correct, and the sidereal

zodiac works in practice, then the influences must somehow be pinned to the

stars and constellations. " The planets would be the carriers of the stellar

influence.

 

No one debates that the alignment of the equinoxes against the stars

continues to change with the ages. The question is (according to Cruttenden

and other proponents of the binary theory) is whether this continuing

change is due to an earth wobble or the entire solar system curving through

space. Both would look the same to us, but the two possibilities are

radically different

 

>The stars don't define the tropical signs. The stars define the sidereal

>signs...

>The tropics i.e. the solstices and equinoxes, define the tropical signs.

 

In India they use the nakshatras to help define signs. At different times

on this forum we've hashed over where sign influences might be coming from

in either zodiac. I'm leaning toward the stars. But from the tropical point

of view which does not consider the stars, what is the theoretical source

of influence of the signs? We have the ecliptic and 30 degree sign

divisions measured from the vernal equinox. Where do the various sign

influences come from?

And today some would say that both are fictional.

 

I didn't mean to make this a zodiac discussion especially. But I am very

interested in **what** causes the sky-equinox difference over the

centuries. Earth wobble or solar system movement? That's the key question

that eventually would have ramifications for astrology.

Sidereal signs have totally different meanings than their tropical

I'm very glad you haven't gone the radiaton/chemo route! No matter what the

" powers that be " believe, that's not the way to be cured of anything in my

opinion.

Actually it is sidereal Piscean, as per the myths of Neptune, a total

non-conformist and rebel against his brother, Zeus. There's a lot of

mis-information out there about the sidereal signs. But you have Sun with

Uranus which is most likely going to go its own way in any sign of the zodiac.
