Western astrology is largely horoscopic, that is, it is largely based on the construction of a horoscope for an exact moment in time, such as a person's birth, in which various cosmic bodies are said to have an influence. ❋ Unknown (2009)
This kind of horoscopic or geneth - liacal astrology, based on the locations of the planets at a supposedly critical juncture and on their imagined potencies, could profess to read far into the future, where the planetary tables covered extensive periods of time. ❋ EDWARD ROSEN (1968)
Economic dodos even study these cycles of stupidity pontificating, with coloured pie charts and factitious, “horoscopic” mathematical theorems, on how it is just normal that fractures in the technique of administering an economy and financing its stock market are a matter of historically recurring routine. ❋ Unknown (2009)
Similarly, Burkert accepts A 14 as genuine and as representing the earliest evidence for horoscopic astrology in Greece (1972a, 350), whereas Huffman argues against authenticity (1993, 381-91). ❋ Huffman, Carl (2008)
Our existences are in truth, owing to heredity, as full of cabalistic ciphers, of horoscopic castings as if there really were sorcerers in the world. ❋ Unknown (2003)
The first of these is the system of lots (κλῆποι), which are points as distant from some specified points in the horoscopic diagram as two planets are from each other. ❋ DAVID PINGREE (1968)
Among the intellectuals the conflict over the validity of astrology revolved around two main points: free will and the uniqueness and accuracy of any horoscopic diagram. ❋ DAVID PINGREE (1968)
Though some authorities, like Vettius Valens (ca. A.D. 175) and his favorite source, Critodemus (beginning of the first cen - tury A.D.?) describe strange new ways of manipulating the horoscopic diagram, they were not very influential. ❋ DAVID PINGREE (1968)
The latter argument was evolved by the members of the Middle Academy, who claimed that no horoscopic diagram applied to one individual only and that the time of birth was not in any case subject to determination with absolute accuracy. ❋ DAVID PINGREE (1968)
The details are deter - mined by the horoscopic diagram of the vernal equinox of the year in which the conjunction takes place. ❋ DAVID PINGREE (1968)
A common variant on or adjunct to the prorogator is the Lord of the Year, which is the strongest planet in the horoscopic diagram; it travels at the same rate as does the prorogator and, as it moves with respect to the other, stable elements of the horoscopic diagram, determines the events of each year. ❋ DAVID PINGREE (1968)
It travels, at the rate of one degree of oblique ascension in a year, toward either the ascendent or descendent point; and as it comes into conjunction with a malefic planet, or is aspected by one, the native's life is threatened or perhaps even destroyed; at any rate he dies when the prorogator has reached the point which was on the horizon in the horoscopic diagram. ❋ DAVID PINGREE (1968)
Of course any horoscopic diagram will yield an enormous number of predictions which will contradict each other or which will be quite extravagant; the astrologer must use his knowledge of the native's social, ethnic, and economic background and his experience and good judgment to extract from this congeries a satisfactory reading. ❋ DAVID PINGREE (1968)
Then follow the horoscopic properties of the Zodiacal constellations, the various reasons for desiring to be born under one star rather than another, a sort of horoscopico-zodiacal account of the world, its physical geography, and the properties of the zones. ❋ Charles Thomas Cruttwell (1879)
This, I believe, is a very usual feature of horoscopic revelation. ❋ Charles Maurice Davies (1869)
The coincidences of prophecy are not more remarkable than those of star-telling; and Dryden and the author I have referred to were probably both captivated into belief by some fatuitous realization of their horoscopic predictions. ❋ Philip Wharton (1847)
They are vortices of our stories in an horoscopic sense. ❋ Unknown (2009)
By the fifth century BC, Babylonian celestial divination had expanded to embrace horoscopic astrology, which used planetary positions at the moment of the date of birth to predict individual fortunes. ❋ Unknown (2009)
I heard of an interesting horoscopic explanation, that when Pluto enshrined (meaning: the energy of this planet reaches its maximum), it influences the earth the most. ❋ Unknown (2008)
