Extension Scripts / Re: Medieval Forecasting Methods

I wish to thank you here as well, Ed.

You have done a tremendous service to the astrological community. Planetdance becomes the first software to offer this.

Even paid traditional softwares do not offer all these calculations. And their daily profections are wrong. In addition, with these other softwares, the user cannot see all the 12 monthly charts on a single page, as well as all the other summarized data.

Hi Ed,

I just tested the module with 2 separate nativities and checked the SRs and the 11 MSR. They all check out correctly.

I compared them with the Delphic Oracle software side by side. There is a difference of 3-4 astrological minutes in the MSR Asc minute, but that is perfectly fine.

Hi Ed,

I love how you have created it. Not only will the Planetdance user be able to see all the 12 monthly charts side by side in different tabs, but I notice you have also included the nativity on the outside. This is great, thank you.

Classic, Medieval, Vedic / Monthly and Daily Profections Based on the SR Month Length

« on: May 02, 2023, 09:44:52 PM »

Hi Ed and Jean,

Could I request that you add a monthly and daily profections option that is based on the length of the solar revolution month? In essence, I would very much like to be able to follow Abu Mashar and the Perso-Arabic/Tajika Indian authors in this.

The first monthly solar revolution (MSR) chart is always the SR chart itself. Following Abu Mashar, each of the next MSR starts when the Sun transits exactly by 30 degrees forward. We erect a chart for this moment and its Asc degree and minute is the MSR Asc.

As an example, I have attached the chart of Mel Gibson (3 Jan 1956 at 4.45 pm in Peeksville, New York, USA, Asc 14.59 Can), his 2023 SR (Asc 2.31 Lib) and the 9th monthly solar revolution of the 2023 SR (5 Sep 2023 at 3.41.17 am - Asc 9.33 Leo)

The Sun in Mel Gibson's chart is at 12.30.16 Cap. Therefore, every year his 2nd MSR will begin when the Sun reaches 12.30.16 Aqu. The 3rd MSR will begin when the Sun reaches 12.30.16 Pis, the 4th MSR will begin wheh the Sun reaches 12.30.16 Ari, and so on for the rest of the months.

The tricky part here is that the length of the months differs due to the speed of the Sun and the natal location. For example, Gibson's 9th month starts on the 5th of Sep, not on the 2nd or 3rd. Hence, this will change the length of the 12th parts too. I know that Planetdance offers daily profections lasting 1 day, which is also a traditional option. However, I would like to have the "2.5 day" daily ones. Again, the length of the latter will depend on the length of the month divided by 12 and thus they will not be strictly 2.5 days per sign. This may not seem that much of a difference, but it actually becomes such over the course of the year as deviations occur that are up to a few days, which is longer than the ingress of the Moon in a given sign/house.

I know you said you are very busy right now with your paid job, Ed, and I don't know whether what I am requesting is difficult to program. It is just no other software that I know of offers these specific traditional monthly and daily profections. Thank you for your consideration.

Hi Jean,

Thanks, I had not explored the Time - Return transit list. Upon doing so, it is not quite what I am looking for because it shows the aspects for the SR in question only, or for Me, Ve or Ma return date. In other words, it only shows the aspects on a given day.

Hi Ed,

Yes, I use this feature. It provides a very useful annual or monthly summary. However, what I looking for is something more specific that only happens on certain days within a given SR. For example, say Mars opposes the natal Asc. And say SR Mars squares the SR Asc. Upon seeing this, I want to identify the dangerous months and days during the year.

Setting aside the monthly profections and revolutions for now, it would greatly help to have a table that shows when transiting Mars will oppose, square or conjunct the SR Asc. Likewise with the transits to the SR Lot of Fortune, the SR Lights, the SR MC and the SR Asc lord. At a least a few softwares offer reports on transits, progressions or solar arc directions to natal planets, with the hit dates/perods. But none that I know offer to calculate transits to solar revolution positions.

Hi Ed,

I understand. Let's make it less complicated then. When you have enough time, how about considering just adding transits to solar revolution positions? I am talking about doing this within the Medieval wheel.

Thanks for your consideration and all the best to you as well.

Hi Ed,

Is there any chance that you would program the features that I requested?
Thanks.

Hi Ed,

Thanks, but it is still showing the same problem. Even after the update. Please see attached files.

Thanks, Jean. It is strange only the RC1 Vedic horoscope fails to work. All the other 5 features of the Vedic module work fine. But the RC1 one is the most important because it shows the divisional charts as well.

Classic, Medieval, Vedic / RC1 Vedic Horoscope Not Working.

« on: January 21, 2023, 06:16:02 PM »

Hi Ed and Jean,

I have a problem with the RC1 Vedic horoscope module. It does not load. When I press on it to calculate the Indian chart, Planetdance says: "Type mismatch parameter 6, center Line 4924".
Please see the attached files.

I have not changed the settings for a long time, so I am wondering where this comes from. I am using the latest update from 15.01.2023.

Hi Ed,

My pleasure for doing the video. Thank you programming these very comprehensive modules. Planetdance is like a gift that keeps on giving.

Of course, when you have the time, I would appreciate it if you consider my request. In fact, Schoener has a somewhat different principle:

"The transit of the lord of the Ascendant of the Nativity over the degree of an infortune in the radix makes the native unfortunate on that day according to the position of the infortune in the house of the revolution, especially if that infortune has dominion in the year."

The bottom line is that having the option of checking when a natal or SR planet is transited or aspected will save the user a lot of time and help pinpoint specific weeks and days within the year.

That is a great feature, Jean. I don't know how I missed it. 

All it needs to have is the option of adding natal as well as SR positions added. Because right now, if one wants to include the Asc or MC, hundreds of aspects are given, since no planet/point is fixed and the Asc/MC move so quickly.

Looking forward to what Ed has to say.

Classic, Medieval, Vedic / Ingresses to Natal and SR Positions

« on: October 22, 2022, 10:16:54 PM »

Hi Jean and Ed,

While I was making the video about Planetdance and the dozens of features it calculates, an idea came to me. We know that in Ancient Astrology transits act as triggers and with very few exceptions only the transits of the rulers of the times are to considered.

Can you program a feature that allows the user to select and calculate the transits to a given planet, and to have the option of selecting the transit to be to that planet's natal position and its solar revolution one?

An example. See attached Novak Djokovic's nativity and 2022 SR.

His data is 22 May 1987, 23h.25m, Serbia, Belgrade, Asc 16.04 Cap.

He turned turned 35 this May = 12th place year = Sag = Jupiter is the Lord of the Year/LoY. Natal Jupiter is at 18.57 Ari. Jupiter returns and is at 2.07 Ari in the 2022 SR.

Can you program it so the user can see:

1) the ingress dates into and out of natal and SR Jupiter in this case. So when planets ingress into Ari;

2) the transit dates to the exact aspects to natal Jupiter at 18.57 Ari and SR Jupiter 2.07 Ari?

3) the ingress dates of planets transiting the profected Asc (Sag in this case);

4) the ingress dates of planets transiting the SR Asc (Leo in this case);

5) the ingress dates and aspects of transiting planets to the natal Lot of Fortune (Pisc in this case);

6) the ingress dates and aspects of transiting planets to the SR Lot of Fortune (Tau in this cae);

The key here is to have the option to select the ingresses and the transited planet/stake/Lot, either natally or in the solar revolution. As far as I know, no astrological software offers this feature.

Thank you for fulfilling my request. I apologize for the late reply.
