Guest guest Posted October 16, 2006 Report Share Posted October 16, 2006 Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare| Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare|| Dear Gurujis, I am finding moon longitude being oscillating for ephemeris data with the interval of 30 seconds. Can you please tell me how to get the precise longitude with no such oscillations. FYI: I am using SWISS EPHEMERIS and "swetest.c" to get the planet's position. Also I am using LAHIRI ayanamsa. Please tell me how to get correct longitude values? Common sense is moon cannot back and forth and it has to always travel to next longitude position with increase in time!

Guest guest Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 |Hare Rama Krsna| Dear Rakesh, Namaskar. The Moon does oscillate. This is because of the Moons close proximity to the earth, and its northern and southern latitude movements which causes the apparent motion to 'wobble'. Knowing this, the nodes of the moon also move both direct and retrograde, and this is called the 'true node calculation', whereas the assumption that the nodes motion is always retrograde is called the 'mean node calculation'.
