Matthew Langford Perry (August 19, 1969 – October 28, 2023) was an American and Canadian actor. he did work with extreme hangovers and was sometimes sweating and shaking.
Perry became addicted to Vicodin after a jet-ski accident in 1997, and completed a 28-day rehab program at the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation that year. His weight dropped as low as 128 pounds (58 kg) and he took as many as 55 Vicodin (paracetamol + hydrocodone) pills per day. At age 30, he suffered from alcohol-induced pancreatitis ; in May 2000, he was admitted to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. In 2018, Perry spent five months in a hospital for a gastrointestinal perforation. During the hospital stay, Perry nearly died after his colon burst from opioid abuse. He spent two weeks in a coma and used a colostomy bag for nine months. Upon being admitted to the hospital, doctors told his family that Perry had a 2% chance of survival. On October 28, 2023, Perry was found unresponsive in his hot tub by his assistant at his home in Pacific Palisades, Los Angeles, and later pronounced dead by officers from the Los Angeles Police Department.

THEME
the SU is located in the last degrees of LEO and cannot be the hyleg.
The dominant planet is MA (score 7, >5).
Hyleg is ASC and alchocoden MA.
I preferred to opt for the classic method and not (here) that of Montulmo: in fact Montulmo only gives the MIDDLE years for house IV (i.e. for MA 40 years). Instead of the traditional method giving the GREATER years (65 years). I have already had the opportunity to start testing this method which is elegant but I see no reason - apart from a compromised domification - not to opt for the GREATER years (with a possible penalty of 0.8 or 0.9).
As you can see from the mundane chart, Algol (b Persei) is conjunct SA (domitude regio : 281.35). On the zodiacal chart, Algol is at 55.74° and SA at 38.56°.
PRIMARY DIRECTIONS
And we still find another parallel // between MA and MO the same year; This is a configuration that we know well: an echo direction.
This type of direction should be closely examined, especially as - and this is the case here - it is accompanied by a radix aspect such as MO opp SA.
B - In 2023, the primary directions show the same first parallel // (m) between MO and MA.
This time, the orb is 1.88.
PROGRESSED (secondary progressions)
The progressed horoscope for the 7/8/2018 (underwent surgery in a Los Angeles hospital to repair a gastrointestinal perforation) :
is calculated for age = 48.967 Y and leads to 4h 2 min local hour, the 7 October 1969. The zodiacal theme shows an OPP MO-R - SA-Pr. (R= radix ; Pr = progressed). Let's not forget that natal MO is F and we have a natal MO-SA OPP.
In addition, we see that SA becomes retrograde from 8/20/69 until the end of the progression period (10/7/69).
SOLI-LUNAR PHASE
This is a method that we find outlined in Vettius Valens [book VI 9] as indicated by Anthony Louis in his blog :
'Vettius Valens had a different notion of annual returns. He felt that the return of the Sun each year was insufficient for forecasting for the year ahead because it omitted the influence of the the Sun’s partner, the Moon. As a result, Valens used a hybrid chart for the annual return which consisted of the positions of the planets when the Sun returned to its natal position each year but these positions were placed in a chart whose Ascendant and houses were determined by the moment the Moon returned to its natal degree during the zodiacal month when the Sun was in its birth sign.' [The Tithi Pravesh and its Monthly and Daily Iterations, November 5, 2022]
Placidus uses it in his Primum mobile (Tabulae primi mobilis cum thesibus et canonibus 1657) and gives the procedure to follow in the XL canon (De Progressionibus, p. 53). A complete example appears in the analysis of the theme of Charles V (Exemplum Primum Caroli V. Austriaci Imperatoris, pp. 59-62).
There is only one site on the internet that does this calculation:
https://horoscopes.astro-seek.com/calculate-planet-revolutions-returns/
but it only gives the soli-lunar return at D0; Placidus continues the progression until maturity. For example in the case of Matthew Perry, if we take the date of August 7, 2018 (serious life-threatening surgery), we must first translate this date into 'life-year equivalent': we find :
48,967 48 Y
11,615 11 M (1)
18,467 18 D
11,213 11 H
12,79 M
The method of “embolismic lunations” as a predictive technique :
'An embolismic lunation, correctly termed an embolismic month, is an intercalary month, inserted in some calendars, such as the Jewish, when the 11-days' annual excess over twelve lunar months adds up to 30. An arbitrary application of this was used by Placidus, who applied the term Embolismic Lunation, to a Figure cast for the moment of the Moon's return to the same relation to the Sun that it occupied at birth. It was made the basis for judgment concerning the affairs and conditions of the ensuing year of life.' [https://astrologysoftware.com/community/learn/dictionary/lunation.html]
The solar year does not have a whole number of lunar months (it is about 365/29.5 = 12.37 lunations), so a lunisolar calendar must have a variable number of months in a year. Regular years have 12 months, but embolismic years insert a 13th "intercalary" or "leap" month or "embolismic" month every second or third year [...]. Whether to insert an intercalary month in a given year may be determined using regular cycles such as the 19-year Metonic cycle [...] or using calculations of lunar phases [...]. [wikipedia]
The whole difficulty therefore comes from the fact that there is no overlap between the solar month (30 D) and the lunar month (synodic month 29.53), consequently between the solar year (365.242) and the lunar year (354.367).
'In Vedic timekeeping, a tithi is a "duration of two faces of moon that is observed from earth", known as milа̄lyа̄ [...] in Nepal Bhasa, or the time it takes for the longitudinal angle between the Moon and the Sun to increase by 12°. In other words, a tithi is a time duration between the consecutive epochs that correspond to when the longitudinal angle between the Sun and the Moon is an integer multiple of 12°. Tithis begin at varying times of day and vary in duration approximately from 19 to 26 hours. Every day of a lunar month is called tithi.' [wikipedia]
We see that the interest of Placidus' method (outlined by Vettius Valens) comes from the fact that the individualisation structure of the progression system is no longer represented by a single point (solar return or lunar return) but by a distance ( in this case the distance between SU radix and MO radix).
In the case of Matthew Perry, we observe:
SU radix = 146°11' (146.19) ♌
MO radix = 217° 39' (217.66) ♏
∆ = 71°28' (6 tithi = ROUNDUP(∆/12))
Here is now the way in which Placidus would have proceeded: for 48 full years, 48 embolismic lunations are accomplished in three years after birth but with 33 days less, that is to say 11*3 since the moon covers 12 lunations in 11 days less than a whole year, as indicated in canon XL
'... if you wish to have a ready calculation of the progressions for several years, note that the moon does not complete twelve lunations in one whole year -i.e. a solar year - but in eleven days less. Having therefore the distance from the moon to the sun in the sky of birth, search for this eleventh day before the end of the first year of life and having found it, then know that the progression of twelve years of life is completed. Likewise 22 days before the end of the second year after birth gives the progressions accomplished for 24 years and so on' [De Progressionibus, op. cit., p. 54]
Therefore on August 19, 1972, by removing 33 days, we arrive at July 16 when the moon is at 185,66° from the SCO is at the same distance from the sun as that of the nativity, namely 71.47° and then, the process is thus completed for 36 full years. Then, for the twelve other years elapsed during the twelve embolistic lunations, I arrive at July 16 of this year 1972, MO is then at 182.04 LIB and SO at 113.9 CAN, in order to respect their gap at birth, the one in relation to the other, for the remaining 11 months and 18 days, on the day of the event. I add to this place of MO 28.17 D corresponding to 11.61(1) M:
JD Pr Emb = 11.61 x 30 / (365.24 /29.53) = 28.17 D
where 365.24 is the number of tropical days in a year and 29.53 is the average period for the synodic month of MO.
We find : date forJD 28.17D = 13 august 1972 at 0h 11 (4h 11 TU).
The orb is ± 2°. We find : #(Z) SA-SU, #(Z) MO-SU, square MO-VE and square JU-VE.
Solar return
Do not forget that the solar return is calculated in relation to the location where the subject is located in the year of the solar revolution. The time is determined in TU. In the case of Perry Matthew, we have :
date even : 7 august 2018
birth data : 19 august 1969
so the date of solar return to compute must be : 19 august 2017 because we have a delta of -12 days between 7 august (bd) and date (19 august).
We find that the SU longitude is 146.19° the 18 august 2017 for 16h21 TU.
We find : MA # MO (orb ≤ 2°).
