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

Chapter 16: Introduction Summary<br />

Summary <strong>of</strong> Ideas<br />

What follows is a brief list <strong>of</strong> concepts that will help in<br />

understanding and using this material:<br />

(1) <strong>The</strong> "strength" <strong>of</strong> a natal chart does not depend<br />

solely on the familiar zodiac. It involves three distinct<br />

and interdependent coordinate systems: Ecliptic<br />

(zodiac), Equatorial, and Horizon.<br />

(2) Each <strong>of</strong> these three systems possesses complete<br />

integrity, stands alone, and refers to a different order<br />

or level <strong>of</strong> our life activity. We can benefit from<br />

familiarity with all three, and should not be dependent<br />

only on the zodiac frame <strong>of</strong> reference.<br />

(3) <strong>The</strong>se three coordinate systems (zodiac,<br />

equatorial, and horizon) are inclined to one another by<br />

attitudes or angles. It is a matter <strong>of</strong> “inclination.”<br />

(4) <strong>The</strong> angles <strong>of</strong> inclination <strong>of</strong> these three coordinate<br />

systems to one another must be appreciated in any<br />

attempt to evaluate the "meaning" <strong>of</strong> each coordinate<br />

system as well as the standard astrological chart.<br />

(5) It is my experience that these differences in angle<br />

or inclination refer to similar changes in approach or<br />

attitude, to life perspectives, as in: “As above, so<br />

below, but after another manner.”<br />

(6) <strong>The</strong>re is great opportunity and need for research<br />

as to the appropriate astrological use for each <strong>of</strong> the<br />

above three coordinate systems. We know the zodiac<br />

system, but are lacking in understanding <strong>of</strong> the other<br />

two, not to mention heliocentric coordinates.<br />

(7) Each system is as useful in combination with the<br />

others as it well-understood in its own right as a<br />

"stand-alone" way <strong>of</strong> looking at an event. In other<br />
