Orbs and aspects

[Guest guest]

Risto, I'll post the exact degree postions of Moon, Mars and the Ascendant.

I considered the Ascendant degree. For research I should have posted the

exact postions. I also considered the orb from the (equal) cusps of the

houses. It was late at night and I was in a rush, just trying to make a

point and not being that careful.

 

I think I'll add a sign or two as well. Maybe Mars in a sign of Venus.

12-24 inches of snow predicted for tomorrow. Let's see if I can get on-line.

 

In other words I am going to re-do that post with greater care and explain

the criterion.

By wide orbs (which I should have explained), I meant Mars in the first few

degrees of the sign aspecting the Moon in the last three degrees. I was

surprised that the wider orbs seemed to be effective, like the 21 degree

orb. That is REALLY wide by western standards, but accepted as normal in

India.
