Aspects : two mundane aspects
MA opp SA is the worst with -3.11 points. For this theme, it is the pivotal aspect around which the primary directions are organised.
SU conj ME is the best with -0.5 points


We analyse the primary directions for the death at 41 years, the 17 JULY 1967.

For the conversion key, we postulated several methods: it appeared to us that the EQU (ecliptic) key gave the best results.
So : the date of the even 1967.54 (40.81 Y) for a key of 1.021 gives 41.66 Y.

2)- DIRECTIO RECTA PLACIDUS gives 46.54 Y.

FOMALHAUT-CHOISNARD
X = sa2.dm1/sa1
sign : if the two points are on either side of the meridian, take +1 ; otherwise -1
Arc = dm2 ±sign.x

The simplest system is that of Choisnard-Fomalhaut. First you need to retrieve the data from the SA (semi-arc) and the DM (meridian distance) of the nocturnal point because the altitude of MA is -34,98°. important note: the SA and DM of the two points are always counted diurnal if the first point (here MA) is above the horizon even if the second is below. They are counted nightly if the first point (MA) is below the horizon regardless of the position of the second point.
For DMs, they are counted in AR from the diurnal meridian if the fixed point MA is diurnal, and from the nocturnal meridian if it is nocturnal.

nocturnal meridian MC = 71,88°
AR MA = 47,53°
AR ꝏVE = 346,85°

SA N (δ-) ꝏVE = 95°
DM N  ꝏVE = 85,03°

For the  significator  ꝏVE altitude (h) =-8,13°. so :

SA D (δ-) ꝏVE = 79,2°
DM N  MA = 85,03°

Then we compute Saf/DMf (so : SA f [ 95°] / DM f [ 85,03°])

Sa f / DM f =1,12

and the angle x = SAm x DM f/SA f, so : SA m [ 79,2°] x DM f [ 85,03°]/SA f [ 95°]

 x = 70,89°

We find the direction by DMm - x, so : DM m [ 85,03°] ± x [70,89]
We must now have regard to the double ± sign of the last expression; in the case where f (MA) and m (ꝏVE) are on either side of the meridian, the direction arc is obtained by taking the sum (instead of the difference) of the two quantities DMm and x. This is not the case here, so sign = (+)
the computation of the arc requires, depending on the case, a reduction of 360° (so arc modulo 360°)
---------------------------------
arc D =-46,54°
---------------------------------
in the technical sense, It is a direct direction but in the astrological sense, it is a true converse direction since it is an aspect considered as a promissor which goes towards the significator. ; so the m point is an aspect (here ꝏVE) and the f point is a planet or an axis, (here MA)

We can now compute the converse direction : point f is directed towards point m, i.e. the star is directed towards the aspect. This is where the problem of the orientation of the primum mobile arises because it is not concevable to rotate the local sphere in both directions… It does not seem convenient to postulate that the arc of direction is counted in the order of the signs of the zodiac (when it is direct, i.e. when one directs a promissor towards a significator): indeed, the ecliptic has nothing to do with a direction since this one depends only on the diurnal movement ( primum mobile). It is therefore otherwise that we must pass judgement on this.

That time, we compute Sa m / DM m (so : SA m [100,8] / DM m [155,65])

Sa m / DM m =3,25

and the angle x = SA f x DM m/SA m, so : SA f [ 95°] x DM m [155,65] / SA m [100,8]

x = 29,21°

We find the direction by DM f - x, so : DM f [ 85,03°] ± x [29,21°]
We must now have regard to the double ± sign of the last expression; in the case where m (ꝏVE) and f (MA) are on either side of the meridian, the direction arc is obtained by taking the sum (instead of the difference) of the two quantities DM f and x. This is not the case here, so sign = (-)
---------------------------------
arc C =55,82°
---------------------------------

3)- DIRECTIO DIRECTA  [♯♂ ☌♃]

This is a mirror direction (or echo) which is established on either side of the ASC and which can be considered as dynamic rapt-parallels. They seem to have a cyclical symbolic structure.

We notice the world # of MA at 272.71° ♑. The REGIO direction is direct: 43.75 Y.

4)- DIRECTIO DIRECTA  [♯♃ ☌♂]

What must be observed in the occurrence of these two # is that they coincide with the event but not their arrival in some way by mathematical symmetrical. We have already seen that this is the case (see previous topics). What is, of course, interesting in this case is the low value of JU and the intervention of the MA-SA opposition.

5) DIRECTIO CONVERSA : [♄ ☌ ♯♂]

Here again, we will find a doublet of # between MA and SA: these are converse directions.

It is important here to know that SA is the alchocoden (the hyleg is the POF at least considered in the Makransky system).
