I've been checking Perihelion postions, using the Sun as a marker. Same as locating the First Point of tropical Aries using the Sun's position at the beginning of the Vernal Equinox in the Northern hemisphere.
You post so quick! lol
Plain ignorance is rarely shameful, but plain ignorance masquerading as expertise is among the most cringe-inducing experiences in life.

Have you been reading JA lately?
No. Has J.A. finally come around to accepting Pluto as an astrological planet???
That would mean that H*ll, if such a place actually exists, has frozen over!
Now I'm the one who posted something that made everyone clam up!
But it isn't!!!
What it is, then?
IIRC Uranus and Neptune have perceptible effects by perturbation on the orbits of the planets, so they have some naked-eye potential in this regard, Pluto doesn't really.
The tropical Ages have major effects by perturbation on the predictable effects of the sidereal Ages.
Pluto's orbit approaches closer to the Sun than Neptune's.
Are you sure that constellations objectively exist?
Do Sign-boundaries objectively exist? The constellations appear to be clustered from our vantage point on Earth. And, the Sun appears to be orbiting the Earth. The "fixed" stars make a round trip each day, relative to the invisible Ascendant point. Etc.
Does the Sun turn southwards at the first degree of Cancer and northwards at the first degree of Capricorn? There are a lot of natural reasons for the division of the seasons into three.
Have you checked out my new thread with a book and commentary?

The tropical Signs are measured intervals. Why not divide a seasonal quadrant in half, instead of thirds?
Twelve months? Four triangles, elements and winds?
