Greetings. I recently made a half a dozen posts in the Astrological Parts sub forum about this. I also have an old thread somewhere about this very "return" but I don't know where it was, that is to say I don't remember what forum I posted it in nor what the title of that thread was given... besides this thread is particulary about the second natal return, in retrograde, that will occur this July 16th, 2024. This is all based on the "Zero Hour" natal chart for the USA, i.e. 12:00:01 A.M. July 4, 1776 Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This chart has proven itself to me without the least of any doubt. The Sabiian Symbols, which I use consistently in all astrological analyses, and if you review an old thread of mine on the matter, titled, "The Birth Chart of the USA", you'll come to understand why.
So then, what I'm going to do here, to initiate this thread, is copy and paste the half dozen, or so, posts I made the last couple of days about this natal return of Pluto, in retrograde... as I have found, so far, that it is most often the retrograde conjunctions that have the most pronounced, the most noticable effect. Please try to bear with me as to the various number of speculations as to the true rate of Sidereal Precession in the follow. As I noted I have done a very in depth study previously of this rate of precession but do not presently have my notes available to me. That the greatest extreme in difference amounts to a little under 9 hours in difference as to when the natal return actually will occur makes little difference to the significance of the event and little difference, if any, to the analysis of the outcome of the event... at least not to me, that is.
Post #1 [copied and pasted... as follows...]
An update that is essential. That is the amount of the Sidereal secession since the birth of the USA, which should be added to all natal positions in order to accomadate, what will be by the end of today, April 20, [Happy 420, BTW] 2024, 90,506 days since. As I simplified things a bit, mathmatically ... not wanting to get into the controversy of the exact timing of the Ahimsa, the Tropical to Sidereal relative movement of one full degree being based on the proposed endurace of one great yuga being 25, 800 years, exactly, and that amounts to, apprx., one degree every 26,176.25 days That amounts to one second of a degree in difference every 7.271180555...6 days.
It all adds up to a difference, by the end of this day, ECST, of 3 degrees 27 minutes and 27.22220 seconds, or 03* 27' 27..22220", that is the amount to add to all natal positions of the Astrological Parts derived from this particular natal chart.
I had to recalculate all the necessary as I'm still in Reno, without my papers, my notebooks, my books and the loss of some atmosphere of inspiration. These todays' figures might even be the same as those that I had been using and espousing before? But I think they are just slightly different. As it takes over seven days for the sidereal to move at least one second of a degree whether it be a month or two more, or less, amounting to no more than about 8.25 seconds of a degree. Then figure on adding four seconds every 29.0847222...3 days. That is to say on May 20th at 12 minutes and 13 seconds, i.e. 12:12:13 A.M. on May 20, 2024 ECST, add four more seconds to the figure I gave above.
My interest in this mater today stems from my realization how close the second return of Pluto to its natal position, Sidereal procession adj., in retrograde this July 16th. I'm curious as to any planetary stimulation to the natal Parts at that upcoming time.
Here's the event chart, although I may have already posted it before, twice won't hurt.
LATE EDIT: Going by what I give for the actual point of natal return for that day in this chart cast some years ago, The ratio I've used in this last post to apprx. the rate of the Sidereal secession would then produce one more second of a degee. I Will refer to the older estimation to be the more accurate, but a difference that amounts to just a hair more than a second in degree difference over a period of almost 248 years.
EVEN LATER EDIT: Checking the current info that google offers about the rate of Sidereal precession, which is given at every 25,772 years [which is surely an approximation but likely with a half a year more or less] that produces a rate of + 0.1375292488419846" of a degree per day, which in turn then gives a Sidereal precession adjusted position for the USA's natal Pluto of plus 3* 27' 52.586", a difference of, just over, 08" of a degree. But not to sweat it much, Pluto will conj. that exact point [01* 01' 48"] at apprx 7:10 A.M. the same day. i.e July 16, 2024, just about an hour earlier.
It's the retrograde returns I pay the most attention to. as that is what has proven itself to me to be the more interesting conjunctions of return when they do happen.
LATEST EDIT: THE FIGURES I GIVE ABOVE CONCERNING A RATE OF PRECESSION OF 360 DEGREES EVERY 25,772 YEARS ARE WRONG AND THUS SO IS THE CHART IMMEDIATELY BELOW. PLEASE SEE POST #18 FOR THE CORRECT FIGURES FOR THAT RATE OF PRECESSION AND THE RESULTANT CHART. I APOLGIZE FOR MY ERROR.
LATE EDIT: OR AS EARLY AS... DEPENDING ON THE TRUE RATE OF THE SIDEREALPRECESSION... BUT DEFINITELY ON JULY 16, 2024...
