Trump's conviction by the Senate

[Clay_Reed]

Incidentally, besides "Astrology for the 90s," I also wrote maybe twenty entries of a column called "Radical Astrology" between roughly 1992-95 (under a different name). There's good stuff in those, too (e.g., my chart for Israel, which is also decribed in "Tomorrow's News" sometimes, also under a different name). Besides that name and Clay Reed, I also wrote some things under the name Jake Chanson, in particular a good piece about mundoscopes (for one thing, I explain that Astrocartography is in fact a Placidus mundoscope along a given line of geographical latitude).

Yes Clay, I have read em all and enjoyed very much, glad to see you on this forum. I will go back and give page # and issue from where I am quoting your words and will continue to do so. Q1 and Q2 are Solarfire abbreviations for two different quotidians progressions. The best I can tell, your articles in American Astrology Mag are progressing quotidians with Solarfire's Q1 progression method. If you want me to use your terminology for your quotidian method for quotidian progression, please let me know the exact terminology you want me to use, for I am not sure.

I didn't say that. I said, if you quote from something I write, don't add anything unless you put it in brackets. You "quoted" me above using the term "Q1," which I didn't use. I ask only that such "quotes" be put in [brackets], to show that you are adding to what I wrote and that I didn't write it. When you are not quoting me, it's none of my business what you say.

[SteveS]

Will do Clay.

Clay, realizing you are probably looking at a stack of charts for your forecasting in this thread, is this one of the charts you are looking at with below link. It is a Natal Quotidian for the Boyd Chart calculated in Solarfire labeled a Sec. Prog. Q1 Mean Quotidian, which I am pretty sure is the same chart you would get with your hand calculated Natal Quotidian for Boyd on July 4th 2019. Can’t remember if I asked: Are you still hand calculating charts or are you using an astro program?

I gave a range of June 25 to July 5, with strongest around July 4, and I mentioned some LR quotidians etc. I don't think I mentioned a Boyd quotidian, but I was just referring to the notes I could find. Your chart is, I think, only progressed to progressed angles, and I think transits are the necessary triggers. But I don't know.

I use freeware AstroWin for simple calculation of planets/angles, but I have to do the math myself on a calculator to find the correct time/date for almost everything (AstroWin is basically useful only as an ephemeris for a given moment, plus SR and LR if you input the radix; it's otherwise useless, and stupidly emphasizes a lot of junk).

JESUS I HATE TYPING.

Tell us exactly what you want calculated and, odds are, as time permits, we ca do it for you.

I told Clay I'd try to do a spreadsheet for him (like the one calcuating the PSSR you did) and he posted what he wanted here: https://solunars.com/viewtopic.php?f=46 ... 367#p21384
I figured out how to do Julian Dates in Excel, but that's as far as I've got to now.

[Clay_Reed]

It's OK, there's nothing for you to calculate -- I said above or elsewhere whatever I found in my notes, and I know they all refer to the period I stated. The exact numbers aren't very important unless I turn out to be right, which, of course, statistically is unlikely (Trump convicted between June 25 and July 5).

One thing: I'm sure I must have a notebook etc. somewhere with some Boyd chart stuff, since I remember noticing we are approaching 88,888 days or something like that since July 1775. I can't find it. But really it doesn't matter very much. I'll probably be wrong ... like astrologers usually are ... but that was my best astrological estimate.

Clay, I have no experience with LR quotidians, but would love to do some research with my Solarfire software, particularly when the progressed LR angles formed any possible parans in a LR. What progressed angle rate are you using with the LR angles?

[Jim Eshelman]

Steve, notice that in te 27-day life of a Lunar Return, the difference between Q1 and Q2 is negligible (about 17 seconds of sidereal time, or about 0°04' on the angles).

I've watched these on and off over the years and have never been able to see them working. Theoretically, one would think they would work (same with lunar ingresses), but whenever I've checked this against a batch events, it's fallen on its face. (I always found an example here and there that I could justify, but the number are so few that they seem random.) - It would be valuable to have something systematic to gather data on this.

Thanks Jim. Since I don’t have the understanding you and Clay have with matters like this, I was not sure if I progressed the SLR with the math of the Q1/Q2 or with some type lunar revolution rate. And, since so much of my work is based on event astrology calculated to an exact day with sporting events, business events, people events, etc. -- I though this venue would offer me an excellent background for testing SLR quotidians with partile hits to the SLR angles. Thanks again, you know how much I appreciate your feedback.

Clay, since you have written your American Astrology Magazine articles under different pen-names, were you the one who wrote under the name Jimm Erickson the articles in the 1992 American Astrology Digest?

[Gary Noel]

Steve, if you’ll read Clay’s initial post, he said that he wrote under the name of Erickson. Both Jake Chanson and Jimm Erickson used the tropical zodiac attributing no significance to the signs and corrected for precession. Jake Chanson and Jim Erickson are clearly the same person.

Thanks Gary, I forgot about this initial post by Clay, but had in my note all his other pen names except Jim Erickson. I will be posting about a 1992 article written by Jimm Erickson but will reference it to "Clay" since this is his name on this forum.
