<strong>The</strong> <strong>Astrology</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Space</strong><br />

Meridian Alignment<br />

For those <strong>of</strong> you with access to a standard star map,<br />

you might like to look up your RAMC or LST and<br />

locate the right-ascension meridian that was overhead<br />

at your birth, which gives you the direction in space to<br />

which your birth location was pointed or oriented. All<br />

stars and points along the line <strong>of</strong> right ascension<br />

running from top to bottom on this map were in line<br />

with the geographic meridian for your birth. <strong>The</strong><br />

diagram will illustrate this:<br />

1. Ann Arbor is located along the 42nd parallel <strong>of</strong><br />

Earth latitude.<br />

2. <strong>The</strong> North/South geographic meridian (red arc)<br />

passes through Ann Arbor.<br />

3. This geographic meridian equals is then<br />

projected onto the Equatorial Celestial Sphere.<br />
