Mine is an old version, I believe it’s Pro anyway.

Thank you for disclosing the name of the program. I checked the website and they offer 3 variations, each with a different price: Starry Night Enthusiast, Starry Night Pro and Starry Night Pro Plus. Which one is yours? Thank you.

Thanks for the input, very appreciated.

The software is Starry Nights http://www.starrynight.com/

Great article, Margherita!
I would like to add an indicator of sexual excess. Schoener in Chapter 12, page 171 in his “On the Judgement of Nativities”,3 Books, R.Hand ARHAT, says:

“If Venus is with Mars or Jupiter alone without aspects of Saturn, he will want to have great pleasures wanton and live luxuriously. But if one is an evening star and the other a morning star, want to mate with the native men and women…and if both stars are Venus and Jupiter in the morning, he will commit the act only with males.”

Margherita, would you please tell me what the name of the astronomy program that you are using is?(the one displaying the beautiful black pictures as in this post) I searched all your posts and did not find the name. I am asking because I would like to find the current positions of the stars which “incite passions” given by Anonymous which you cite in this article and in others. Obviously they are powerful, but they are so small that all my 4 astrological programs do not display them. I tried adding the precesion to get their current positions but it is not very clear, at least to me, which year as point of reference Anonymous uses - Ptolemy’s or his, as he seems to be alternating with the many stars he describes. Luckily, the stars I am looking for all belong to constellations on the ecliptic so parans are unlikely to be necessary, but still to ask you: does your astronomical program calculate parans? I have looked into Bernadette Brady’s “Starlight” but its descriptions of the parans are way too modern and fluffy.

@ gjiada:
Anyway I know the Marquis of Sade had Scorpio rising and Gemini Sun in house 8 according to astrotheme

This thing of matutine and vespertine are not easy to grasp, I know.

Anyway Moon in Pisces=feminine and the same the Sun in Capricorn.
Mars and Venus are with the Sun, so they depend on the which sign they are, in Capricorn, feminine.

Hi
I`m very confused about this oriental-occidental and matutine thing.
Can you tell me if the significant planets in my chart are in feminine or masculine areas?
I got sun at 18 capricorn, Venus at 14 of same sign and Mars at 12 in house 8 and 9 as Gemini is rising. Moon is in 10th house.
Jupiter and saturn close to MC. But you can verify yourself
I was born on 9 january 1962 at 14.15 in Lisbon, Portugal

thanks

To be honest, I don’t know if I deserve that prize. I will pass my astrological examination just because they know me (so I hope), but I’m quite renowned for my allergy to every great Teacher….I hear everything and then I do with my head.
But I hear, this is the important point.

About Mars and Venus, I did not use orbs but I checked dates of visibility.

Moreover Mars and Venus are so near but their condition is very different in this chart, Mars is still invisible but it is going to have its heliacal rising in a month, so it is stronger and stronger, but for the moment it is invisible, it cannot act; on the other hand Venus is setting in a few days, so it’s very strong in this chart, it’s like the phoenix before the death.

In casanova´s chart, why is mars invisible but venus is visible?

A fantastic article, Marguerita.
You deserve the oscar´s of traditional astrology.

I think I will call them the “ptolemy´s”, even though ptolemy was a reformist
