I have Frisiangal to thank for providing a Thread that will enable me to explain the import of these Tropical Ages. One could accuse me of "making them up", but that's not how I see it. When I first realized what they were, my reaction was a sort of resentful feeling--why did I have to be the one to uncover them? All the clues were there, for nearly a century (this was in 1975), and all those great minds, greater than my own, had missed them, and gone on arguing about and expounding on the Sidereal Ages. The Sidereal Ages we're an incredible breakthrough, and are the first, and most important evidence for the Tropical; but, they're not a dead end, as they've been considered. It was simply necessary to recognize three (apparently not-so-obvious) things, in order to begin a deductive reasoning process: 1) The "Ages" as they're nearly always discussed, are products of the Natal-charts, and Transits; and, they're EARTH'S Ages, due to a terrestrial phenomenon, not some nebulous force, beaming down on us from above. 2) The standard, and nearly always used, Sidereal method for determining these Ages works ONLY in a Sidereal Chart. 3) Since both Tropical and Sidereal Charts are Earth-based, it's only natural that there would be a Tropical method for tracking this terrestrial Age-phenomenom as well, and it would actually be strange if there weren't....It all follows from there.
