Schubert Franz

Franz Peter Schubert ; 31 January 1797 – 19 November 1828)

Introduction

He was an Austrian composer. Schubert died before his 32nd birthday, but was extremely prolific during his lifetime. His output consists of over 600 secular vocal works (mainly Lieder), seven complete symphonies, sacred music, operas, incidental music and a large body of chamber and piano music.
Appreciation of Schubert's music while he was alive was limited to a relatively small circle of admirers in Vienna, but interest in his work increased significantly in the decades following his death. Felix Mendelssohn, Robert Schumann, Franz Liszt, Johannes Brahms and other 19th-century composers discovered and championed his works. Today, Schubert is ranked among the greatest composers of the late Classical and early Romantic eras and is one of the most frequently performed composers of the early 19th century.

In the midst of this creative activity, his health deteriorated. The cause of his death was officially diagnosed as typhoid fever, though other theories have been proposed, including the tertiary stage of syphilis.[62] By the late 1820s, Schubert's health was failing and he confided to some friends that he feared that he was near death. In the late summer of 1828, the composer saw court physician Ernst Rinna, who may have confirmed Schubert's suspicions that he was ill beyond cure and likely to die soon. Some of his symptoms matched those of mercury poisoning (mercury was then a common treatment for syphilis, again suggesting that Schubert suffered from it). At the beginning of November, he again fell ill, experiencing headaches, fever, swollen joints, and vomiting. He was generally unable to retain solid food and his condition worsened. Schubert died in Vienna, aged 31, on 19 November 1828, at the apartment of his brother Ferdinand. [Wikipedia]

The first symptoms of syphilis seem to date back to 1823. It is interesting to analyze in particular the direction of Saturn and Venus, and Sun with Saturn.

I)- 1823

The Kassel symposium defined the crisis years as being from 1818 to 1823. The year 1823 was certainly to fit this definition, proving for Schubert to be a year of very serious illness - and extreme shortage of money. [...] In the early part of the year Schubert was extremely ill for several months with a recurrence of the secondary phase of his syphilis [© Arnold Howarth, The Schubert Institute (UK), 2002]

Schubert was the victim of several recurrences of secondary syphilis that year.

1)- So conj #Sa conv

We find in 1823 the converse : SU conj # SA.

- parameters

- results

As in the previous two examples, the table above shows the detail of the directions corresponding to the current conversion key (here AR 0.98 and EQU 0.986). The table below shows all the results on all directions. It shows that there are 12 varieties of primary directions in progress in 1823, while there are none in the varieties of directions other than primary.

Given that the planetary conditions sometimes have a great influence on the arcs, I indicate each time whether the latitude is used. Note that the AO (oblique ascension) directions are sometimes used by astrologers like Lilly). Others (H. J. Gouchon) use the arcs in OA from the pole formulas, much like Makranski, especially in the calculation of the directions according to Regiomontanus.

2) Ve opp Sa conv

I often observe directions involving Venus and Saturn either when diseases are triggered or when death occurs; I have not so far observed any particular frequency involving venereal diseases (but this needs to be more documented).

- parameters

- results

We see that the results are equivalent between the two varieties of directions (primary and non-primary).

II)- 1828

Two directions are to be studied: Moon conj. Sun and Sun conj. #Sa with also another counter-parallel : #Ma conj SU. The first one is all the more interesting to consider as it will make us understand the problems related to an important latitude (Moon).

1)- MO conj SU

Here we have the direction: MO conj. SU. Consider first the arc with latitude (l = 5 ° 04'17 ") and note that here the Moon is the promissor (moving point).

- parameters

- results

I analyse in depth and quite exceptionally the results because it is, if not, difficult to understand the effects of the presence of a high latitude. And this is particularly the case for the Moon and Venus. so, we see the results with and without latitude

no latitude, prom SUN, sign MO (it is a converse direction for the mean astrologers, but it is a true direct with ancient astrologers).

no latitude, prom MO, sign SU (it is a direct direction).

And there is no arc with MO and latitude. Moreover, we see that the three converse directions of the first table become direct directions on the second.

2)- SU conj #Sa and #Ma conj SU

We see here a rather rare coincidence of two counterparts acting simultaneously: it is a converse direction of SU conj. #Sa and a direction of #Ma conj SU.

- parameters for SU conj #Sa

- results

Ten varieties of primary directional arcs versus five (there are duplicates in non-primary directions ...).

Conclusion

Statistical analysis can be carried out using tests for two or more samples. It takes just thirty cases. The most suitable test, but it loses a lot of information, seems to be the test of Mc Nemar. To see for later, on a sample of more important directions ...

Brahms Johannes

Johannes Brahms, 7 May 1833 – 3 April 1897)

was a German composer and pianist of the Romantic period.[1] Born in Hamburg into a Lutheran family, Brahms spent much of his professional life in Vienna, Austria. His reputation and status as a composer is such that he is sometimes grouped with Johann Sebastian Bach and Ludwig van Beethoven as one of the "Three Bs" of music, a comment originally made by the nineteenth-century conductor Hans von Bülow.

I)- introduction

Brahms health began to decline in May 1896. Shocked by the death of his beloved Clara Schumann on May 20, he was further upset by missing the funeral when he took the wrong train in error. He caught a chill at the cemetery from which he never quite recovered, though it was cancer of the liver that ultimately caused his death.

[Sy Scholfield quotes the catalogue "Johannes Brahms: The Man and His Work" (Kurt Hofmann et al, Detroit Symphony Orchestra, 1980), p. 7: "Excerpt from the baptismal records of St. Michaelis in Hamburg from the year 1833 PHOTOGRAPH The birth of Johannes Brahms on May 7th at 3:30 am is recorded under number 494.

Note that Mars is falling into Cancer while Jupiter, of which Mars is the ruler, is particularly highlighted. Moreover, the Sun is in house I. It seemed interesting to me to calculate the direction Mars conj Soleil. On the technical level, a word from the Brahms theme: it face us with the proximity of certain planets to the axes, in particular, Mercury, possessing a strong latitude: this can lead to aberrant results according to the method used. In principle, I choose in these studies to retain the latitude of the promissor and to leave the significator without latitude. Obviously, in the case of a switch method, you have to remember ...

II)- Directions

1)- So conj opp Mars

- parameters

- results

Important note: AR = conversion key in right ascension of the sun - EQU = conversion key on the equator of the sun - 1 / AR or 1 / EQU = inverse - PTO = Ptolemy key - Naib = Naibod key - Dir = - Z = zodiacal - M = mundane - D = direct direction - C = converse meaning (in the sense of ancient astrology) - D - AR = direction in right ascension - AO = direction in oblique ascension - Gold Regio = direction Goldmayer, Variety Placid = direction Goldmayer, variety Placidus - Symb = symbolic direction - X - 1: table of "fictitious" directions with arc x key factor - X - 2 = table of "fictitious" directions with date x key factor

We find 3 directions +, agreeing with the key of conversion in AR (0.919) or in EQU (0.966).
 The following table gives the results of all direction arcs:

There are actually four arcs of direction. The fictitious methods give two arcs in D-AR. There are actually four arcs of direction. The fictitious methods give two arcs in D-AR. For detailed explanations, refer to the Albert de Saxe-Coburg theme.

2)  opp. Sa conj Lu conv.

It is an important direction, frequent in case of illness according to my research. In the case of Brahms, we know that he presented liver cancer, like his father elsewhere ... The direction is D = 64.3 ° in converse Placidus semi-arc.

 Note this direction at the bottom of the table. Note another D Regio-Campa on the same date. The following table gives all directions. Please note that the two converse mundane and zodical Placidus arcs give roughly the same results -orb - 0.30); In this case, I retain only one aspect (in statistics, this is called the maximal bias hypothesis).

So, results are :

D – M	1
X – 1	0
X – 2	0

Albert of Saxe-Coburg

Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha (Francis Albert Augustus Charles Emmanuel;[1] 26 August 1819 – 14 December 1861) 

Hwas the husband and consort of Queen Victoria.
He was born in the Saxon duchy of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld, to a family connected to many of Europe's ruling monarchs. At the age of 20, he married his first cousin, Queen Victoria; they had nine children. Initially he felt constrained by his role of consort, which did not afford him any power or responsibilities, but gradually developed a reputation for supporting many public causes, such as educational reform and the abolition of slavery worldwide, and was entrusted with running the Queen's household, office and estates. He was heavily involved with the organisation of the Great Exhibition of 1851, which was a resounding success.
Victoria came to depend more and more on his support and guidance. He aided the development of Britain's constitutional monarchy by persuading his wife to be less partisan in her dealings with Parliament—although he actively disagreed with the interventionist foreign policy pursued during Lord Palmerston's tenure as Foreign Secretary. In 1857, he was given the formal title of Prince Consort.
Albert died at the relatively young age of 42, plunging the Queen into deep mourning. On her death in 1901, their eldest son succeeded as Edward VII, the first British monarch of the House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, named after the ducal house to which Albert belonged.

Important note: AR = conversion key in right ascension of the sun - EQU = conversion key on the equator of the sun - 1 / AR or 1 / EQU = inverse - PTO = Ptolemy key - Naib = Naibod key - Dir = - Z = zodiacal - M = mundane - D = direct direction - C = converse meaning (in the sense of ancient astrology) - D - AR = direction in right ascension - AO = direction in oblique ascension - Gold Regio = direction Goldmayer, Variety Placid = direction Goldmayer, variety Placidus - Symb = symbolic direction - X - 1: table of "fictitious" directions with arc x key factor - X - 2 = table of "fictitious" directions with date x key factor

The table above shows the results for all types of primary directions. In particular, the arc of zodiacal direction D Regio-Campa D = 41.59, and that the arc of the mundane direction Placidus in converse is D = 41.86. However, it is not easy to make an easy synthesis with this table, which is purely analytical. The table below tries to obviate this defect: in particular, it gives the synthesis of the directions in zodiacal, mundane, by key of conversion and by variety of direction.

a)- synthesis

 (click to enlarge)

 It is easier here to make comparisons; For reasons of space, I had to arrange two boards end to end one below the other. However, the upper table shows two zodiacal directions in D Placidus (not AR) and the other in D Regio-Campa (not EQU). The other table is the same synthesis for the mundane directions. There are three directions +, two in EQU (for D Placidus and D regio-Campa). The arcs corresponding to these directions are indicated on the right, in a small annexed table.

b)- use of "fictitious" directions

In order to make comparisons, I had to use directions other than the true primary directions: these are the directions in AR (which are recognized by some astrologers as "valid", as Max Duval), directions in AO (Which were used by astrologers such as Lilly) or the Goldmayer directions (which are some kind of symbolic global direction, little known by astrologers and of which Max Duval considers the value questionable, but HJ Gouchon seemed to recognize some interest in them). Finally, I do not insist on the symbolic directions (attention: I did not misunderstand that the directions of the MC are almost identical to the symbolic directions, "almost" ...) ; 

In order to make comparisons I was obliged to make two tables that overlap with those of the directions deemed "real", zodiacal and mundane directions. For this, I had to use in the 1st table a "classic" conversion key (arc x key) and in the other, a more exotic one by using the key x date conversion key. The working hypothesis, which in terms of statistics we call the null hypothesis, is to say that, all things being equal, we will find as many "real" directions as "fictitious" directions.

c)- result for one direction :  # SU conj Me

D – Z	2
D – M	3
X – 1	1
X – 2	1

 The table is obvious to read; This is an example. It will take many cases like this to determine whether or not a significant difference is revealed!

2)- analysis for previous direction :  Sa // Me

 In other analyses, I had not been able to fully exploit the arcs of primary directions. Indeed, Max Duval gives a method that is too inspired by that of the zodiacal directions to be truly exploitable; I had to use Makranski's algorithms. However, these require a lot of attention to the management of semi-arcs and other arcs of type (tm-ts). A sign error leads to aberrations!

 We see two mundane directions corresponding to arcs D and C Placidus.
These arcs correspond to the following directions:

for the D Placidus arc = 42.29 converted in years folloing AR = 0.919

 and for the C Placidus = 42.92 converted in years (following AR = 1.088 (1/length SU).
So, results :

results
D – Z	0
D – M	2
X – 1	0
X – 2	0

 3)- analysis for the zodiacal direction Sa conj #Lu (Campanus)

Here is another typical converse zodiacal direction: #Sa conj Lu D = 41.25 (AR key) with latitude.

- parameters

 - results

 While the Morinus software indicates only one type of direction compatible with the event, the table allows, as I said above, to analyze all directions in one piece.... You will see below the same table concerning the "fictitious" directions (see above for an explanation).

 Hence, we find :

results
D – Z	3
D – M	3
X – 1	0
X – 2	0

If we now add the intermediate results, we find:

D-Z	2	0	3		5
D-M	3	2	3		8
X-1	1	0	0		1
X-2	1	0	0		1

 Of course, for such a small number of cases, it is not possible to use an appropriate statistical tool 'even the non parametric ones); However, we show the way to an appropriate statistical evaluation of primary directions: the comparison between a homogeneous group of management deemed "giving results" and another group deemed "placebo".
  

Edward VII

Edward VII

Edward VII (Albert Edward; 9 November 1841 – 6 May 1910) was King of the United Kingdom and the British Dominions and Emperor of India from 22 January 1901 until his death in 1910.
The eldest son of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, Edward was related to royalty throughout Europe. Before his accession to the throne, he served as heir apparent and held the title of Prince of Wales for longer than any of his predecessors. During the long reign of his mother, he was largely excluded from political power, and came to personify the fashionable, leisured elite. He travelled throughout Britain performing ceremonial public duties, and represented Britain on visits abroad. His tours of North America in 1860 and the Indian subcontinent in 1875 were popular successes, but despite public approval his reputation as a playboy prince soured his relationship with his mother.
As king, Edward played a role in the modernisation of the British Home Fleet and the reorganisation of the British Army after the Second Boer War. He reinstituted traditional ceremonies as public displays and broadened the range of people with whom royalty socialised. He fostered good relations between Britain and other European countries, especially France, for which he was popularly called "Peacemaker", but his relationship with his nephew, the German Emperor Wilhelm II, was poor. The Edwardian era, which covered Edward's reign and was named after him, coincided with the start of a new century and heralded significant changes in technology and society, including steam turbine propulsion and the rise of socialism. He died in 1910 in the midst of a constitutional crisis that was resolved the following year by the Parliament Act 1911, which restricted the power of the unelected House of Lords.

remarques :
1)- le thème apparaît « bon » dans l'ensemble ; on aurait pu espérer une vie plus longue que 69 ans. Il est vrai qu'Edward VII était un grand fumeur ce qui a évidememnt contribué à diminuer largement son espérance de vie
2)- il a survécu à une typhoïde en 1871 (maladie qui avait emporté son père à l'âge de 40 ans) et il a aussi survécu à une appendicite en 1902. Le décès a été brutal, certainement dû à un infarctus.
3)- Il n'y a pas d'anaerete déterminé dans ce thème. Mars et Saturne sont fort bien disposés et de toute façon, selon la tradition, on ne peut placer So ou Lu comme hyleg. On peut en déduire que la tonalité délétère attribuée à Mars et à Saturne sera en principe atténuée. Remarquez néanmoins que Jupiter et Vénus sont disposés en maisons cadentes : à ce titre, ces points marquants peuvent avoir un effet équivalent aux anaeretes classiques.
4)- remarquez que Morinus donne un score de 31 à Mars (ALMUTEN) mais qu'en revanche le score de Saturne n'est que de 15 ce qui est manifestement anormal. De même le score de Jupiter est trop bas, à 15.

Nous avons 3 dates à vérifier : 1871, 1902 et 1910.

- 1871 : typhoïde (maladie potentiellement fatale à l'époque)


-1902 : appendicite opérée

 In mundo, on relève Lu opp. Ju en 1902. N'oublions pas que Lu est en maison VIII.


-1910

En 1910, on relève deux directions in mundo : Ve opp Sa et Ju conj Ve (cf. remarque supra concernant le rôle joué par des points marquants en maisons cadentes).

remarques : les directions zodiacales sont plus précises, et notablement les Placidus. Notez une grande différence entre les arcs Placidus et Regio-Campa en rapport avec la proportion des maisons. Cela est dû à la latitude de 51°N.

Conclusion

Ce thème permet de relativiser la notion, trop dichotomique, d'hyleg et d'anaerete. Il nous a permis de revoir les conditions d'attribution, par ailleurs, du sens d'une direction, selon qu'elle soit directe ou converse (cf. algorithmes de Makranski). enfin, on remarque que les conditions de réalisation des aspects sont très différentes selon les domifications Placidus et Regio-Campa selon la latitude.
