Publisher's Synopsis
True Hermetic astrology is not one that deals with reincarnation or other unprovable things. The goal of the Hermeticist is to discover the secret links that bind earthly aspects to each other and to their corresponding celestial counterparts. The astrological techniques that we have inherited from tradition are not always the most suitable for explaining and predicting events, because they actually only catch the last connections in a chain of further underlying celestial causes. In fact, the primary reasons of all events are always found only in the Eighth Sphere, that is, in the heaven of the constellations and fixed stars.
This book summarizes the main results of the author's research in the field of Stellar Astrology. It begins with three essays illustrating the various astrological uses of methods based on the maximum and minimum declination reached by each star during the precession cycle. From Egyptian archaeoastronomy to world and individual astrology, it will show how and why these star stopping points - whose astrological efficacy lasts some 26,000 years - can be activated at any time by other stars or planets. The geometric patterns formed by the stars at their lower and upper stopping points and their subsequent activations represent the true and hidden root cause of most events, and not only world events.
There are also other essays in which the techniques of Stellar Astrology are applied to Local Space Astrology, Medical Astrology, and also to the platonic concept of the Mother Star.
The last two essays solve the age-old problem of the longitude of places on a stellar basis. In particular, it is the cycle of the brightest star in the sky: Sirius. We will see how and why the meridian passing through the Great Pyramid of Giza must be considered the fundamental meridian, and we will also explain why this has much to do with the precession cycle of Sirius, which was precisely the limit star at Giza when it reached its minimum declination. Most importantly, we will illustrate how you can use this discovery in your astrological practice.
There is then an essay in which we explain the astronomical significance of the six-pointed star, also known as the Star of David or Solomon's seal. We will see that the Star of David is also, literally, a very specific star, which in Jewish tradition is the symbol of the house of David and the tribe of Judah. We will look at what are the astronomical peculiarities of this star in Jerusalem when it was at its lowest stopping point (lowest declination).
And finally the fundamental essay in which we explain what a Stargate is and how it opens from an astrological point of view. These are channels of communication between heaven and earth, some of them universal, others individual. We could define an individual Stargate as a particular point in time and space where our illusory perception based on the five senses and the most common associations of ideas takes a step back and allows us to perceive things in a different way. This happens on the one hand because of the occurrence of a series of particularly perfect stellar and planetary geometries, that is, because of a certain "magical" combination of stars and planets that are also among the strongest and most effective stars in its individual Microcosm. By studying these exceptional cases in this essay, the astrological conditions that favor these kinds of events are recognized. And, of course, once they are identified, you can act in your election to prepare everything in the best possible way.
