Subject: for Viktor Krutov ректификация Date : 07 Oct 1998 01:50 GMT From : Irina Makarova [zhan] (zhan@a-teleport.com) To : All
Viktor! Я получила от вас письмо, но вы забыли написать свой адрес, и у меня не было возможности вам ответить. Предлагаю вам еще раз проверить ваш гороскоп, и снова заняться ректификацией, никогда не останавливайтесь на достигнутом, лищний раз не помешает убедиться в том, что гороскоп построен верно. В настоящее время я веду переписку с профессором астрологии Америки -Кен Негус по вопросам ректификации. Я отправляла ему свои работы и мне было очень интересно, каким образом делают ректификацию астрологи США. Он мне прислал ответ, оторый я здесь размещаю. Я не стала делать перевод, так как нечаянно могу внести свое мнение. И еще у меня к вам просьба, вы пишите, что у вас на кафедре и т.д…. Вы, что работаете?, если да, то напишите дату поступления на работу, это поможет для дополнительной ректификации. Еще - летом этого года на Астрологической конференции в Санкт - Петербурге был очень интересный доклад на тему ректификации, как можно использовать события родителей для ректификации гороскопа ребенка. Обратитесь к форуму, может быть у кого - то есть материалы этой конференции. И Дополнительно сообщите различные события ваших родителей, я вас уже об этом просила, но вы не ответили. С большим уважением к вам Ирина Макарова. To: Irina Makarova Sept. 16, 1998 Dear Irina: Thank you for all the information on your research into rectifying. You seem to have done some valuable work on the subject. Your methods are similar in some ways to those recommended by us. We too try to keep it simple -- but of course it cannot be too simple. The primary feature of our method, as recommended by me, is the use of the solar arc directions, with emphasis on Moon, Ascendant, MC, Part of Fortune, Vertex and Equatorial Ascendant (often called East Point). But we also require the use of such methods as transits, progressions, etc. I am attaching herewith a very brief review of the method. It is not quite complete, since instruction on the 90-degree-dial is not included. I hope to do this soon. For use of the 90-degree-dial see the NCGR Study Guide, the section on Level Three. It would be helpful if you sent me a short review of your method in Russian -- perhaps photocopies of a few pages from your book. I read Russian fairly well, but I do not write it with any fluency (or clarity!). Thank you again, Sincerely, Ken Negus DON'T'S AND DO'S OF RECTIFICATION by Ken Negus Rectification is as individual a matter as anything else in astrology, perhaps moreso. I therefore expect differences of opinion from most experienced rectifiers on various points in the following. I offer this document primarily as an initial guide to beginners in rectification (although they should be somewhat advanced in astrology in general). I would expect them eventually to depart from my method as they find their own. I believe, however, that these do's and don't's will at least provide an instructive and usable start, especially to those who have never attempted rectification before. A caveat! Rectification is an art, and an imperfect one. After attempting it a few dozen times, the astrologer may learn to his/her surprise that a recorded birth time has surfaced, and -- lo and behold! -- it is at or very near the rectified one. But then you may also find that you have "wrongified" the chart. My quarter-century of experience with rectification tells me that the most we can expect of our art is a chart that works as well as we can devise with the information that we have been given. The time that we have decided on may not be the true birth time. Any carefully rectified chart, however, should still be useful. Obviously, a rectification should not be substituted for a chart based on a recorded time unless that time is in great doubt, or unless it involves only a "fine-tuning." The following describes the procedure for a rectification based on having a birth date only, with no reported time whatso- ever. In many cases, however, there is a reported span of time within which to work, such as "in the afternoon," "in the wee hours," "dinner time," etc. This facilitates the process. The initial steps in the following, however, should not be completely omitted, just in case of an AM/PM mistake (yielding an "upside- down" chart, 12 hours in error), or other such mishaps. -- A "fine-tuning" of a more or less certain birthtime can eventually, with practice, be done mentally by checking the solar arcs of major events between planets and fast-movers, especially the angles. DON'TS 1. Don't even think about trying to determine the ascending sign of the chart as your first step. This is a veritable mine-field of possible errors (principally because major aspects of natal planets to the natal Ascendant often modify the symbolism beyond recognition, at least superficially). 2. Don't allow yourself to be distracted by aspects that are irrelevant to the rectification process -- e. g. an aspect of transiting Jupiter to natal Pluto may be extremely interesting for the analysis of a given event in the person's life, but it is of no use whatsoever in determining the time of birth. Such instances involve mainly aspects between the outer five planets. But many such aspects including Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars also are rarely helpful; but they never are for the five outer pla- nets. Keep your eyes constantly on the fast-movers. (See below under DO'S, #4 & 5.) 3. Don't rush the job. Beginners should take up to ten hours for a rectification (but no more!); experienced rectifiers should finish within five hours, sometimes as little as two. 4. Don't think that a great volume of information will be helpful -- it won't be, and it is usually a hindrance. You may never finish the rectification if you allow yourself this luxury. PRIORITIZE! Develop a keen sense of what are the most important items of information, and disregard everything else, with few exceptions. 5. Don't allow yourself to lose your patience or courage for any length of time. If necessary, set the rectification aside for a few days and return to it when you think you can get a fresh view of it. DO'S 1. Obtain a list of six to ten major events in the person's life. They should include such things as: marriage, divorce; serious illnesses, operations, accidents; deaths of close relatives (especially parents); births of children; major beginnings and terminations of employment; important changes of residence (especially to a distant location and/or a foreign country). They should be timed as closely as possible. Timing within one month is satisfactory for solar arc directions and secondary progres- sions, less so for transits. Events timed only to a year are almost useless, except perhaps for getting within the ballpark. In addition to the events, other important information needed is: character traits; types of employment engaged in; other activi- ties such as hobbies, memberships in organizations, community work, etc.; and birth information of a few close relatives. 2. Use a "zoom-lense" approach. First develop a hypothesis for an approximate time of birth. This should be done primarily by examining aspects of events to the natal Moon. Transits, progres- sions and/or solar arc directions may be used, but directions yield the most information for the least effort. Then gradually move into possible positions of the fast-movers, and therewith the probable timing. The main fast movers are: Ascendant, MC, Equatorial Ascendant (sometimes called EP), Part of Fortune, and Vertex. Glance at the natal chart, as rectified at each given stage, and try to see whether, holistically, the chart more and more describes the person. Look especially at natal aspects involving the fast movers, and the house positions of planets. Don't be afraid to use quick, approximate estimates in the begin- ning. Don't waste time trying to be precise in the early stages. 3. During the above, carefully examine the natal Moon's arc for the day of birth (or the span of time within which the birth is known to have taken place). Use major events and their dynamic aspects to it (especially the hard ones), aiming for a span of within 1/2 of a degree of the Moon's position (corresponding to about one hour of time). No more than ten of such events should be used; as few as six may be sufficient. Among the various techniques for timing events, solar arc directions measured on a 90-degree dial will give you the most mileage. (Mark and number the four solar arcs of each event on the dial itself with a water-soluble pen.) Often, however, a hard transiting aspect of one of the outer five planets to the Moon will offer a clue to its position. The progressed Moon can also be extremely helpful. Use what works best. 4. The Moon analysis is done best by first examining 1 to 3 of the most clearly defined and dramatic of the major events. They should be precisely timed, and indicate truly major milestones of a person's life. When the analysis of the 1 to 3 events is completed, go on to the other events for further testing. You should then be able to come to a conclusion as to which 1/2 degree segment (1/4 degree each way) contains the Moon. 5. Then, and only then, should one zoom in on the "fastest-mov- ers." There are many of these, but I have narrowed the list down to five: Ascendant, MC, Equatorial Ascendant (usually called "East Point"), Vertex and Part of Fortune. The only truly satis- factory way to accomplish this step is to examine them with solar arc directions on a marked 90-degree dial, as described above. The orb should be 1/4 of a degree. The most exact indications (mathematically and symbolically) should be given highest priori- ty. Methods other than solar arcs with the 90-degree dial are feasible, but they are far more time-consuming. It helps to keep in mind that these fastest-moving points proceed forward a degree every few minutes as the time is advanced. The MC's motion is quite close to 4 minutes per degree, the Ascendant sometimes the same, sometimes more or less. The others vary more from chart to chart. -- Sometime during this stage, you may have an opportunity to decide between two signs on the Ascendant (and/or MC). At this point -- but not before -- this is appropriate, and can be very, very helpful. 6. If you have analyzed the Moon thoroughly, and achieved promis- ing results, you may be even closer than a half-hour to the correct time. In this case it is a matter of fine-tuning with the fastest movers by a few degrees or less (i. e. about 10 minutes in time) with the ninety-degree dial (or transits, or the pro- gressed secondary Moon). Otherwise there will be much trial and error until a preponderance of factors falls into place, as will be readily seen when it happens. 7. Test your rectification with samplings of techniques that you have not yet used on the chart. You may do complete transits for a few of the closely timed events. You might try tertiary pro- gressions. Or a basic synastry analysis between the client's chart and that of the spouse may show much to corroborate your rectification. 8. Even though you feel confident about your rectification -- and you should if you have done it well -- hold on to your modesty and humility in cases of wrongification. A well-rectified chart, however, even if it is not based on the true birth time, is more usable than a noon chart, or various other substitutes for a timed chart. The following will serve as an example of how to rectify according to the above method. THE RECTIFICATION OF JOHN V. LINDSAY'S NATAL CHART On August 11, 1971, I was driving home with the radio on. The news came on. The headline story was that John Lindsay, then mayor of New York City, was resigning from the Republican Party, and joining the Democrats. National interest in him at the time was at a high, since he had been frequently mentioned as a possible candidate for the next presidential election. As yet his birth time was unknown to astrologers; at least no timed chart for him had yet appeared in astrological publications. Upon arriving home, I cast a noon chart for his date of birth (Nov. 24, 1921, in New York City), and puzzled over it briefly, and did not encounter any immediate clues as to what his birth time might be. Then I noticed that the range of the Moon on the day of his birth was from late Virgo into early Libra (23Vir52 to 7Lib49). On that day, when he took this remarkable step before the public, transiting Pluto was at 28Vir03. Could his natal Moon be at or near that position? If so, the astrologi- cal indication of his action would be altogether appropriate: a major, far-reaching transformation (Pluto) in his life before the general public (Moon). Recasting the chart then for this lunar position, the time was 7:10:11 AM. Moon in Virgo? Thinking over the implications of this, there were some doubts at first. His appearance (regular features, handsome) and manner (pleasing, tactful) suggested Libra more than Virgo. He already had a small stellium in Libra, however, and this sign would receive additional emphasis from being in the tenth house if the time were 7:11 AM. Furthermore, he gave great attention to physical fitness (Virgo), by often walking several miles at a time along the streets of the city of which he was mayor. However, my experience in rectifying was already teaching me then that it is better, more objective, and more reliable, to work initially with events in their connection with planetary positions, than to speculate about sign position of Moon, Ascend- ant, etc. Later on it can be extremely helpful to consider such matters, but only after a narrower band of possible birth times has been established by analyzing events and their possible planetary positions. Now, if the assumption was correct that the Moon was at approximately 28 degress of Virgo, then a very important step toward rectifying the chart had been achieved. By narrowing the arc of the Moon to -- let's say -- between 27 3/4 and 28 1/4 degrees, we have narrowed the span of time to be considered to within about one hour. This would place the birthtime to roughly between 6:30 and 7:30 AM. Some astrologers may prefer a wider orb for this step -- perhaps one degree each way, thereby inreasing the span of time to two hours, or between 6:00 and 8:00 PM. In this case, this is not a serious matter, for it still offers the sole choice of Scorpio or Sagittarius as the Ascendant sign. This is almost too obvious a choice even to discuss: His appearance and general impression are much too fiery, athletic, and "jovial" even to consider inner-directed, sometimes sullen Scorpio as the ascend- ing sign. We are thus closing in on the early degrees of Sagit- tarius as the area of the Ascendant. The exact figure thereof is 4Sag11. Now it is time to consider additional major events in Lind- say's life. In so doing, let us compile a brief, basic chronolo- gy, as follows. Event# Date Description Age Solar Arc 1. June 18, 1949 Marriage 27 2/3 28 deg. 00' 2. Nov. , 1955 Elected to Congress 34 34 deg. 30' 3. Nov. , 1965 Elected Mayor, N.Y.C. 44 44 deg. 42' 4. Aug. 11, 1971 Joined Democratic Party 49 3/4 50 deg. 33' (I usually use six to ten events when rectifying profession- ally, but for our purposes here, four will do quite nicely.) I have added solar arcs for a special reason. One should almost always use solar arc directions -- not degree-per-year directions, as one can do for initial and approximate results. One should use the latter only for events at a fairly early age, when the increment of difference per year between the two is inconsequential for rough approximations. Later on in life, this increment can be quite significant. The "creeping effect" can be seen in the above differences between the values of the approxi- mate ages and the solar arcs. For event #1 the age value would be altogether satisfactory, whereas for #4 the difference has become over 3/4 degree, or over 9 months, therefore the solar arc should be used instead. The next step is to test the solar arcs for the events, to and from the angles. We do this by first adding, then subtracting each of the solar arcs from each angle to see which positions thereof best fit the events. This is, granted, a tedious process to do by hand. Since, however, we are working here on the most basic level for beginning students, your patience is requested. If or when you can use the ninety-degree dial, the process is much quicker and more efficient. (See above under "Do's," #3 and 5 for details of this technique.) As with no other branch of astrology, learning thoroughly to crawl through rectifications is necessary before walking or running. Event # 1, Lindsay's marriage, has a solar arc of 28 deg. 00'. Adding it to the MC of the 7:10 AM chart (20Vir45), the result is 18Lib45. The closer of two appropriate conjunctions for the event is the Moon's North Node at 15Lib39. If the MC were moved back accordingly (subtracting 28 deg. 00' from the Node's position), the resulting new MC is 17Vir39. This is 3 deg. 6' before the original MC. A chart with this new MC would have to be changed in its timing to about 12 minutes earlier. The Ascendant would then be about 3 degrees earler, or about 1Sag. The other possibility is a direction from MC to Jupiter. Subtracting the 28 deg. from Jupiter would yield a new MC of 14Vir02 -- a difference from the original MC of 6 deg. 43', or about 27 minutes earlier in time. The symbolism of MC-Jupiter is appropriate, though not nearly as appropriate as MC-Node, which is far more personal. The Jupiter direction would more likely be a professional success than a marriage. Besides, this change in timing would move the Moon by about 1/4 degree, which begins to pull it rather far out of orb for the transiting Pluto conjunc- tion with which we began. This could be investigated further, but we shall drop this matter here for the sake of avoiding a digres- sion. There is also a possible Neptune conjunction by direction if we subtract 28 deg. from the original MC, then an additional 6 deg. 47' to adjust it to this solar arc direction. This pulls it back to a time similar to the above one for the Jupiter direc- tion. Therefore, for the time being, we assume the MC is approxi- mately at 17Vir39. Proceeding to the Ascendant and its possible directions for event #1, we add 28 deg. 00' to 4Sag11, giving us a result of 2Cap11. Adjusting the Ascendant (adding 7 1/2 degrees or 30 minutes of time) to make an opposition to Pluto with this direc- tion would be excessive. If pushed forward by about 3 degrees (ca. 12 minutes of time), the directed Ascendant would square Saturn at the time of the marriage -- a not uncommon symbolism for the event. It is, however, a somewhat more powerful Saturn indication than would promise a successful marriage -- which it apparently was. We should nonetheless keep this in mind as a possibility. -- Subtracting 28 degrees from 4Sag11 yields nothing within usable range. For event #2, election to Congress, we are adding and sub- tracting 34 deg. 30' to the angles. The midheaven directed for- ward for this event is 15Lib45. We note that Jupiter at 12Lib02 would yield a highly appropriate direction for the event if the degree of the MC were reduced accordingly. The amount would be 3 deg. 13', corresponding to a time of about 13 minutes earlier. If, on the other hand, we subtract 34 deg. 30' from the uncor- rected MC, the result is 16Leo15. Natal Neptune is at 15Leo58, requiring only a subtraction of 17' of arc, or one minute of time to make the direction perfect. Granted, the Jupiter direction seems more appropriate, although the Neptune configuration is not out of the question (fulfillment of a dream?) We should, however, keep it in mind for the time being, until we have more data. Still we must note that so far the subtraction of about 3 minutes from the time seems promising. Going on to the Ascendant then for event # 2, we add 34 deg. 30 to it, and arrive at 8Cap41. This does not yield a direction by conjunction, but it would produce a square to Saturn if the Ascendant were moved back accordingly by 3 deg. 32' -- equivalent to a reduction of about 14 minutes in time. Notice how a probable rectification is emerging! The above subtractions of between 12 and 16 minutes of time suggest that we may be "zooming in" on a good rectification. We go on then to the last two events to see whether we get corroboration, or no help whatsoever. Event #3, Lindsay's election to the mayoralty of New York, has a solar arc of 44 deg. 42', which when added to the MC takes us to 5Sco27', at which nothing is aspected. Again, however, by moving the MC of the tentative chart backwards by about three or four degrees (12 to 16 minutes of time), it semisextiles the Sun -- not a very strong indication, but still another small piece of evidence for the rectification putting the time back by 3 or 4 degrees. There is, however, a much stronger indication when we sub- tract this arc plus three from the MC. It lands on 6Leo03, which is within orb of a separating quincunx to Uranus -- a possibili- ty, but not a strong one. By subtracting, however, about three degrees plus from the MC, we arrive at a trine to the Sun -- a perfect indication for the fame of becoming mayor of New York City. Event # 4 yields a sextile to the Moon if we subtract its arc of 50 deg. 33' plus the extra 3 deg. as above, from the MC. We may decide at this point that we have gone far enough, and decide that the time should be 14 minutes (ca. 3 1/2 degrees on the angles) subtracted from 7:11 AM, or 6:57 AM. A few months after I did this rectification, it was an- nounced at a meeting of an astrological organization that someone present had inquired of Mayor Lindsay himself and learned that his recorded birth time was 7:00 AM. Would you use this time, or 6:57 AM? The above rectification does not follow through with the most precise analysis possible. If you want such precision, use the ninety-degree dial, and see whether it yields a slightly later or earlier time. As is, the chart is usable for most pur- poses. ________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________
