TO FIND THE POSITION OF THE PLANETS. 275
It will be observed that one column is devoted to each
month of the year.
Take the month in which the person
was born, and follow down the column until opposite
the required date, the days of the month being
given in the left-hand column. In this way one can
ascertain the position of the moon for any day throughout
the year. To illustrate : If a person was born
March 21, 1820, by following down the column for
March until opposite the 21st day, we find the moon
was in II (Gemini). The innate quality or function
being T (Aries),
we thus learn that the person is polarized
in n (Gemini). Turn to the table of contents
and find the page whore " T (Aries) with the Moon in
II (Gemini)" is described. Having read that, turn to
the Ephemerides of the planets for the same year. But
ere explaining the method of finding the position of
the planets, we will add a few words to guard against
any misunderstanding of the moon's positions. The
position of the signs in the upright columns indicates
the day the moon entered a given function or sign.
The mark ( )
indicates that the moon continued in
the sign given above until the next following sign
occurs : thus we find that the moon entered the sign
II (Gemini) March 19, and remained in that sign until
March 22, against, which date we find the sign 25
(Cancer) ;
therefore March 21, 1820 the moon was still
in n ,
as indicated by the ditto mark ( ).

Turning to the Ephemerides of the planets for the
