So I found the date of the new moon right before I was born and then went to the ephermeris and looked up that date. On the date of the new moon before I was born, the ephermeris shows that sun was at 22°46'49 and the moon was at 12 (Pisces) 5

oop! Sorry!

It is in 24 degrees. I also included a chart :)
Thank you for teaching me
that's ok ~ I'm no expert ~ happy to help :smile:
Well done! You found that your natal Part of Fortune was at 24 degrees Gemini
then next we find the planet with the most dignity at that degree
check the TABLE OF ESSENTIAL DIGNITIES for that
it's good practice for you

Next we need to find the degree of the Moon at the FULL MOON preceding your birth

Looking at your natal chart
there was likely a FULL MOON approximately fourteen days before your birth
:smile:

so now we have discovered the mystery of the prenatal syzygy
Astrology is definitely the best fun ever :smile:
as well as finding the planet with the most dignity at degree of Part of Fortune (24 Gemini)
our next goal is also to find the planet with the most dignity at degree of the Moon at Pisces 12° 5'15"

Ok, Part of Fortune.. 24 degrees gemini....

Hey... PArt of fortune rules nothing.. is this a trick question! lol
On the contrary Part of Fortune is very important in traditional and ancient astrology :smile:

It's the PLANET that has most dignity at 24 degrees Gemini that is important
because that planet is involved with 'Fortune'

The Lot or Part of Fortune is the gateway to a system of delineation
Fortune operates as an ascendant, becoming the "new east"
and providing an invisible second chart, placed upon the first, having all the houses related to it, as if it were a new chart.
All of the angular, succedent and cadent houses from the Lot of Fortune have the same potency and meaning as their radical counterparts.


From Valens: "In another manner, when you have come to know the place allotted for Fortune,
also consider the squares to it and the remaining figures to be, as it were, upon the genethlialogical pivot points.
That is, the Lot itself will possess the power of the Horoskopos (Ascendant), that of life
the tenth zoidion (zodiac sign) from this, the power of the Midheaven, that of reputation
the 7th, the power of the Descendant
the 4th, of the subterraneous zoidion, and the remaining places will possess the power of the 12 regions.
For some have mystically established the universal Horoskopos and its squares to be the cosmic pivot points
but the Lot and its squares to be the genethlialogical pivot points


Genethlialogy is defined by Nicholas Devore in his Encyclopedia of Astrology as:
"that department of Astrology which deals with the birth of individuals
whereby one forms a judgement of the characteristics of a person from a map of the heavens cast for his given birth moment."

VETTIUS VALENS clearly believed that delineation derived from the Lot of Fortune (as the ascendant)
more relevant than the radical ascendant to judge the characteristics of a person.

Fortune, like the Horoskopos (ascendant),
represents our physical body, health and inclination.

It also points to the kind of work we do

So POF and the moon in pisces are both peregrine.


So we have:
Sun - peregine
Moon - essentially dignified and (apply 3pts if in trip.)
Acs - dignified in house (venus rules libra, my asc is libra)
P.O. Fortune and syzygy - both peregine.


So part 1 is done. Do I now only have 3 points?
What about the rest? I will try my hand at part #2 - please let me know what you think.


2. Add 7 points for the Day ruler and 6 points to the Hour ruler.

I found this site http://www.lunarium.co.uk/planets/hours.jsp?selectedDate=21/09/15

If what I am doing is correct, my day ruler would be Jupiter and my hour ruler is the sun.

Im not sure about the points? Do I find the dignity for the sun and jupiter as well??




3. Add accidental dignities scores. I have no idea where to go with this?

For the planet in 1st house you add 12 points.
10th house = 11 points
7th house = 10
4th house = 9
11th = 8
5th = 7
2nd = 6
9th = 5
8th = 4
3rd = 3
12th = 2
6th = 1

The planet which has most points in the aforesaid places is the Almutem Figuris of the chart!

POF cannot be peregrine as it is not a planet :smile:
We need to determine the planet that has MOST DIGNITY at the DEGREE of the POF


Taurus Moon has dignity by Exaltation therefore is NOT peregrine

So we have:
Sun - peregine
Moon - essentially dignified and (apply 3pts if in trip.)
Acs - dignified in house (venus rules libra, my asc is libra)
P.O. Fortune and syzygy - both peregine.
Sun - Peregrine
Moon - Exalted

however do revise your assessment of the ASC, POF and SYZYGY
and
Make a note of the planet that has the most ESSENTIAL DIGNITY at the degree occupied by the ascendant
Make a note of the PLANET that has the most ESSENTIAL DIGNITY at the degree occupied by the POF
Find the planet that has the most ESSENTIAL DIGNITY at the degree occupied by the syzygy

Step 1 almost completed

Mercury
24 Libra is DOMICILE of Venus = +5
TERM of Mercury = +2
Exaltation of Saturn (= +4) AND Triplicity of Saturn (= +3) of Saturn = +7
Saturn has more ESSENTIAL DIGNITY AT THE DEGREE OCCUPIED BY ASCENDANT than Mercury
:smile:

Venus

Mercury has more ESSENTIAL DIGNITY at the degree occupied by POF than Venus
to check that you understand the principles, can you tell me why?
