In Astrology
On this Map, the first house is given to Aries, The Emperor. Ideally, the ring on The Map which represents the Houses should be capable of revolving in order to align this first House with the position of the Ascendant in any given horoscope. For Astrological purposes the operator may wish to copy the section of the Houses onto card and overlay this on The Map.
Although it is perfectly in order to deploy the appropriate Tarot cards to represent the planets etc., you may wish to obtain symbols or coloured balls to mark their positions on The Map as they fall in the horoscope, particularly if you are combining an Astrological reading with a Tarot reading.
This may sound complex but, as it is a stage by stage operation, it really is quite simple. To a complete novice in the field of Astrology the thought of calculating the positions of the planets in the heavens nay seem quite frightening, however, there are a number of publications which make this subject easy. We recommend ‘The Revised Waites Compendium of Natal Astrology’ (Arcana Books) which gives full, broad-based instruction on the subject and contains an ephemeris (documenting the positions of the planets over the span of a century or more), tables of Houses and geographical data essential for the successful casting of any horoscope.
All you need to know in a simple paperback.
