Kronos<br />

KRONOS<br />

Kronos is one of <strong>the</strong> eight hypo<strong>the</strong>tical planets (sometimes referred to as <strong>the</strong> trans-<br />

Neptunian points or planets, or TNPs for short) utilized in Uranian <strong>astrology</strong>. The<br />

Uranian system, sometimes referred to as <strong>the</strong> Hamburg School of Astrology, was<br />

established by Friedrich Sieggrün (1877–1951) and Alfred Witte (1878–1943). It<br />

relies heavily on hard aspects and midpoints. In decline for many decades, it has experienced<br />

a revival in recent years.<br />

Kronos indicates elevated matters, both literally and figuratively. Thus, Kronos<br />

may represent, on one hand, mountains and airships and, on <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r, leaders, executives,<br />

and government authorities. It may symbolize authority and expert status as well<br />

as <strong>the</strong> questioning of authority and expertise.<br />

Based on <strong>the</strong> speculative orbits of <strong>the</strong> Uranian planets, <strong>the</strong> Kepler, Solar Fire<br />

and Win*Star software program will all locate this hypo<strong>the</strong>tical planet in an astrological<br />

chart.<br />
