Traditional astrology in modern world, part 2

in #astrology5 years ago (edited)

In the previous text I've explained astrological cosmos. The questions remained: what is outside the sphere of fixed stars? Mentioned "metaphysical" spheres, so I'm going to explain them now.

First metaphysical sphere outside from the fixes stars is sphere of the Zodiac. Yes, it's the sphere which contains zodiacal signs which we know. Contrary to the constellations, which differ among themselves in size, zodiacal signs are fixed size, 30 degrees of longitudes each.
Beyond sphere of Zodiac is the sphere of Prime Mover (lat. Primum Mobile). This sphere is responsible for diurnal movement of heavens, and for the change of day and night. Every day Sun and other stars rise in the east, culminate and setting, anticulminate and rise again at the beginning of the next day.

We call these 2 spheres "metaphysical" because the don't contain the stars.
