ANTIC PRESENTS:
STAR STRUCK - THE ASTROLOGER
APPENDIX A
INTERPRETATION OF THE CHART
An astrological chart contains an enormous amount of
astronomical information relating to the positions of the
constellations and planets at the time of birth. An
astrologer extracts special meaning from each piece of
information. The placing of the planets, sun, and moon in
the houses is said to have meaning because each house is
supposed to represent a separate area of the individual's
interests. The constellation in which each planet resides is
supposed to control the disposition and fortune of the
person. The aspects of the planets are supposed to show good
tendencies or adverse ones. The Sextile and Trine are good
aspects. The Square and Opposition are adverse aspects. The
Conjunction may be either good or adverse.
Because the amount of information is so large it is possible
to give only a small sampling of it here. The interpretation
of the houses and aspects can be found in Ref. 1. Below are
meanings for the positions of the planets in the
constellations. The meanings are those presented in an
astrology textbook dating from 1911(Ref. 6). To find the
position of each planet look in the position table in the
upper right corner of the screen. The first symbol is the
planet. The symbol after the number is the constellation of
the zodiac. Remember that you can click on "Symbols" from
the menu to check the symbol table if you are not sure
which is which. Starting with the sun, from the first entry
in the table determine which constellation it was in at the
moment of birth. This of course is the "sign" under which
the child was born. In the following tables look under the
one starting with the words "sun in" for that constellation.
Build up a character profile for the person by following this
proceedure for each of the planets. The textbook only went
out to Saturn. Presumably this is because the influence of
the outer planets had not been well established in 1911. You
may find obvious inconsistencies as you build the character
profile. These may mean the person has a complex personality
and then the aspects must be considered in more detail. Make
some charts for your friends and see if you (and they!) agree
with the meanings given in the textbook.
