Tropical astrology is more secular than sidereal astrology.
All astrology is fringe in the West.
That was an ancient Roman addition to the Latin calendar-week.
Nothing to do with the Hebrew Sabbath-day.
The exact opposite, really.
Hi Everyone,
Before i go further i must state that i am a moderate Christian, and obviously not saying that electional astrology happened during the change over from the Julian to the Gregorian Calendars, it could have just as easily happened by the will of the Cosmos, yet both arguments need easy discussion.
Later we can debate the Council of Nicea, that started on Thursday 20th May 325 AD, that set in stone the equinox's, and Easter, but for the moment i want to look in detail when Pope Gregory XIII closed the Julian Calendar.
In the early years of the 14th Century large clock towers appeared in several Italian cities, another advance in timekeeping was the spring powered clock, that was invented between 1500 and 1510, by Peter Henlein of Nuremberg, replacing the heavy drive weights permitting smaller and more portable clocks....These advances in design were precursors to truly accurate time.
This means wealthy individuals carried smaller clocks with them, and by 1582 some clocks also displayed even "seconds".
Now when Sosigenes closed the Great Egyptian Calendar in Thebes/Luxor we know that he would have used Sunset.....but by 1582 there is evidence that wealthy individuals may have thought as we do now....which is the "end of the day happens at midnight".
Pope Gregory changed over from the Julian to the Gregorian between the 4th Oct to 15th Oct. 1582, so the last minute of the Julian Calendar could have been 23:59pm on 4th Oct. 1582...the Sun is near the I.C. obviously, and amazingly Sirius is in paran with the Asc. just like Sunset at Thebes on 31st Dec. 0047 BC....could this be a closing ceremony for the Julian Calendar?
I have put parans on attachment for 23:59pm 4th Oct. 1582, for Rome Italy.
Now by 1582, projected fixed stars were used far more than parans, perhaps an astrologer would like to set up a chart for 1st Jan. 1583, at time 00:00am., which is the first New Year in the Gregorian Calendar, and tell me what star is conjunct the M.C. by projected, orb 00*47', that is continually on the M.C. at the stroke of New Year till 1703, after which it begins to fade only being on the M.C. for two out of four new years....it eventually peters out on 1781 where it is 01*00' degrees off the M.C......i think you will guess which star it is!
I will continue with this later, Monk.
Opal, is English your first language?
Yes it is.......you called me a troll earlier, in this thread, for my lacking sense of humour. I presumed you were directing that last troll comment at me.......I guess I was wrong......as I have stated in other threads......it is easy to misunderstand a person here........I can't see your eyes........
If English is your first language, can I also ask why you are using three ellipses after every three words?
Sometimes, it is easier than using proper punctuation, to express the cadence, with which I speak.
In my opinion, it doesn't really help, but distract. I realize that written communication is bad and is nothing like verbal, but all people on forums write without that stuff anyway for a reason - this way is easier to read and understand, which facilitates communication in the end, which is the point after all.
Btw you can use whatever you want as a form of an artistic expression. I have a feeling most people would not like it, but maybe it is just me.
It is your thread. I will try to communicate in a way that is easier for you to read. I understand, as I have issues with short forms. Btw I know, but many of them I have to think about much too long to figure out what it is.
Opal, I think your way of writing illustrates the cadence of your speech. I like it! Also, your pic is on point. I have a couple low-grade opal rings myself, so I'm a fan!
I try to make my voice cadence come across, thinking that
they will hear, laughter, sarcasm
or other sentiments that are portrayed, by the voice, and
by facial expression.
