Uranus is an appropriate indication of a sudden event, the Sun represents the life force and the Ascendant is the way one interacts with the physical world.
He would have been 90 this March (March 4 2012). This means his Uranus/Sun conjunction by Solar Arc would hit his Gemini Ascendant at 13 degrees 32 minutes just prior to his 90th Birthday. His Uranus is 13 degrees Pisces 30 minutes and his Ascendant is 13 degrees Pisces 32 minutes. Sir Patrick Moore just passed away 12/09/12 – His Sun and Uranus are conjunct by 1 degree in his natal chart. (click on chart at left to enlarge in new window) His Death Instead I first used Solar Arc to check various events. So I did not start with Willner's first step. I find it counter-intuitive to start here without at least checking some of the major events of the life through solar arc because if the birth time is off (and it is only rated C) then the Ascendant could be wrong and to try to fit the appearance and personality to the Zodiac sign seems like quite a subjective place to start. Step 1 “The personality and physical appearance of the person will mirror the sign on the Ascendant in behavior and body features.” I will use these guidelines to experimentally check the C rated birth time on Sir Patrick Moore’s Natal Chart from Astrodatabank using some of the more predominant life events listed in Wikipedia and in Astrodata bank. The overall horoscope shall fit the person exactly, without any doubts or exceptions.If planets are conjunct or parallel the Ascendant, Midheaven, Descendant or Imum Coeli, extraordinary or recognizable traits will be evident according to the symbolism of the planet and the sign.If in using the Placidus system intercepted houses are present, the intercepted pair of houses will match the vocation or a strong avocation or at least their activities a strong tendency.A minimum of three events should be tested, but more is desirable, and many of the events should be accompanied by aspects involving the Angles- natal or progressed, Ascendant or Midheaven. Appropriate day-for-a-year Naibod progressed aspects in either longitude or declination should coincide with every important life event with 00 -4’ of accuracy.One house or the other will predominate- the astrologer must determine which. All planets should be checked that they correctly reflect their house position, especially those planets near a cusp.The personality and physical appearance of the person will mirror the sign on the Ascendant in behavior and body features.In the Summary of the article, Tebbs includes Willner’s “ Proposed Standard for Testing Natal Horoscopes in the Tropical System”: Compared with most of today’s faulty horoscopes, these ‘perfect horoscopes’ match personas with awesome precision and provide greatly enhanced forecasting capabilities.” Why? Because spiritual birth times, which are essential to producing an accurate horoscope according to Edgar Cayce, occur up to four-and-a-half hours before physical birth. On the back of the book presumably written by Willner himself we find : The majority of horoscopes in current use are terribly wrong. The technique that I have chosen to experiment with is the one put forth in ‘ A Summary of Willner’s Book The Perfect Horoscope: Following the Astrological Guidelines Established by Edgar Cayce.’ Carol A Tebbs, who wrote the review of Willner’s book, states, According to Astrodatabank he relegated astrology to “ a load of rubbish” and Wikipedia quoted him as saying Astrology proves one thing, “ There is one born every minute!” His birth information is rated C, and he died only a few days ago on Decemat age 89. I have chosen to look at the life and chart of Sir Patrick Moore, a very famous British Astronomer in the Public Media. Use a list of important life events to derive a birth time that astrologically corresponds to time rectification, most probably one of especial interest to you. Select a chart of a notable person whose birth time is A, B, or C-rated and experiment with one of the rectification methods described by another author (reviewed in week 1) except Zipporyh Dobyns, Carol Tebbs and Noel Tyl, since we have already practiced their methods.Week 6 assignment for W112 Rectification class taught by Carol Tebbs (Fall term 2012-2013) Corinna started studying at Kepler in the fall of 2010, starting at the beginning with W101 Introduction to Astrological Symbolism and Practice. Corinna Hurst, a student from the Certificate program, has volunteered to share her Week 6 assignment. In the final class of the certificate, Moving the Chart in Time (W112), students have a chance to test different methods. Chart rectification can be challenging and different astrologers have advocated different methods.
