Avraham the Spaniard, otherwise known as Ibn Ezra

tells astrologers that astrology does not contravene natural law :)


Ibn Ezra explains
a personal chart falls under quite a hierarchy of other considerations.
From Nativities and Revolutions:


"...The third way is the rule that comes from

the effect of the Great Conjunction on each country.
Thus, if within the influence of the Conjunction upon the nations
war is supposed to befall a certain nation,

even if many of those born in it do not have an indication of death by the sword
in their nativities,
when the time for war for that country comes, they will all be killed...."

Based on the nautical metaphor of the life
- natal birth chart is as a vessel on the sea of its destiny. :)

The horizon at birth is shown by the sea level.
What is above the horizon is above the water

and visible on the sky. What’s below the horizon – is below it.
The degree of horoskopos aka ascendant is shown as οἴαξ
oiax, the helm
as it is at the back of the ship

the head of the ship is going towards the horizon of the destiny/destination.
The ship of life is swimming from the direction of the Sunrise - birth
to the destination of the setting horizon
Descendant in ancient astrology describes the old age,
other people and far places, as well as
– in the earliest sources like Hermes Trismegistos – death.

10th place - midheaven - is our praxis -action/karma, career,
something we are known for and our professional life direction
like a mast on a ship, that is the first thing seen from afar.

4th place - ὑπόγειον, hypogeion, below the earth - is your home
and your ties with your ancestors, and your death - hence anchor
– all those things are unmovable :)

"..People should not minimise the value of astrology. :)
Astrology is a branch of science
that studies and interprets human behaviour.."
