Solar Biology

Special Notice to Astronomers and Astrologers.
tVe address this explanation to the above classes because their education
in the present disorder of astronomy blinds and confuses their comprehension.of
the true order. Those who are not students of either system
have no difficulty in fully comprehending the orderly arrangement of the
foiar system as given in this work.
Those who study the science of Solar Biology thinking it will amalgamate
with astrology, or aid in astrological prognostication, will find
lhat it can not be so used, as it is a distinct science, using different data
ftnd arriving at entirely different conclusions. It reads character in human
life completely, but in no case predicts coming events.
We receive numerous letters from astrologers and astronomers asking
why ourephemeris locates the planets ISO degrees from their position as
given in the Nautical Almanac. One reason is this: astronomers accept
but one zodiac. We know of three distinctly separate zodiacs and four
movements used by Solor Biology and astrology.
The difference between the two sciences in relation to the two zodiacs
used by them is this: Astrologers use the moon's zodiac and the momentary
motion of the earth as it moves through the twelve signs of that
lodiac by means of its revolution upon its axis, carrying any given locality
of the earth through all the twelve signs every twenty-four hours, comprising
in their system the houses and signs of the zodiac; and they work
from that most ancient word formula, expressing the idea that the sun,
moon, and all the planets revolve around the earth.
In Solar Biology we work from the facts as known in the Copernican
system, namely, that the sun is the center, and all the planets, the earth
included, revolve around it; while the moon is the only planet that revolves
around the earth. Therefore, the position of the moon in the signs
of the zodiac as given in the astrological ephemeris is the only part
which accords with and is used in Solar Biology.
We are frequently asked why we have reversed the naming of the signs
of the zodiac and changed the given position of the planets. It is for the
following reason : The common statement of both astronomers and astrologers
that on or about March 21 the sun enters the sign p (Aries) confuses
every student of astronomy, because it leaves the impression upon
