HoroscopeMany astrologers also use what are commonly referred to as Arabic parts (or Greek Lots), the most common of which is the Part of Fortune (Pars Fortuna). To create a horoscope, an astrologer first has to ascertain the exact time and place of the subject s birth, or the initiation of an event. The local standard time (adjusting for any daylight saving time or war time) is then converted into Greenwich Mean Time or Universal Time at that same instant. The horoscope is then divided into 12 sectors around the circle of the ecliptic, starting from the eastern horizon with the ascendant or rising sign. Tables of houses have been published since the 19th Century to make this otherwise demanding task easier. In house systems that take into consideration the effects of the angle of intersection between the planes of the horizon and the ecliptic, the calculations are more complicated. However, these horoscopes, as well as the characteristics assigned on the basis of the year one was born, are considered amusing rather than accurate predictors 2 . Chinese horoscopes often appear in horoscope sections in newspapers and magazine alongside Western horoscopes. The word horoscope comes from an Old English word deriving from Latin horoscopus, ultimately from Greek nativity, horoscope , literally observer of the hour of birth , from time, hour and observer, watcher . In Middle English texts from the 11th century, the word appears in the Latin form, and is anglicized to horoscope in Early Modern English. 0 comment :: Post a comment Blogs about Horoscope
