ANGLES OF THE ECLIPTIC
The chart below depicting the World illustrates the angle from which we see the Heavens. Bearing in mind that man, standing with his feet on earth looks out to the Sun, students will observe that the angle at which one sees the London skies is much greater than the angle at Bouvet Island.
Therefore, the Houses for London (51º N) and Bouvet Is. (51º S) are not the same because of the angle. This is further illustrated by comparing the London & Bouvet Island charts below, both depicted for 21st. June, 12 noon. The Houses for London are more expansive in the Mid-Heaven, whilst the Houses for Bouvet Is. are more expansive on the horizons.
To locate the Houses for Bouvet Island it is necessary to add 12 hours (Bouvet Is. being in the Southern Hemisphere) and refer to Table of Houses, London. Then Invert the Houses. |
|
ANGLES: At the moment the Sun is Long Oº it is 12 noon. The distortion of the Houses in the north and south is much greater than in the tropics. Observe also long day in the North Pole and short day in the South Pole. STUDY: -- Chart Houses for London and Bouvet Is. as at 7/10/´51. |
