1. The Ecliptic
- www.winshop.com.au
- It was early in my astrological studies that transit watching, and natal observations too, taught me to trust as an evident truth that indeed the actual ecliptic longitudes of the fixed stars, even if they be extrazodiacal stars, are "alive" in the astrological sense, fulfilling at least in a symbolic fashion some of the correlates that traditional lore ascribe to them; and that these ecliptic longitudes definitely respond to dynamic planetary aspects in natal and in mundane charts as well, etc. ...
- Of course, while it is true that my observational experience assures me that the ecliptic longitude coordinates of fixed stars very removed from the ecliptic, and from the zodiac, are definitely "alive" in the astrological sense, I nonetheless grant the validity of the general principle stating that the closer the star is to the ecliptic the "more alive" its ecliptic longitude will appear to be, other things being equal.
- Some very influential stars are actually quite away from the ecliptic. ...
- The fact that the ecliptic longitudes of fixed stars that are very removed from the ecliptic are astrologically "alive" is, I think, one of several independent indicators that there is a great deal more to the ecliptic, as a modulus, than we actually tend to grant, or even imagine. In my Lessons for the "I Am an Astrology Student" email course, I have structured some basic axioms of the astrological system, and the 3rd axiom is called the Axiom of Ecliptic Modularity, stating that of all the possible muduli where we could conceivably measure the longitude coordinate for the purpose of referencing a specific direction in the heavenly vault, none is better than the ecliptic. ...
- To grasp better the idea, think that as a corollary of this 3rd axiom, it follows, for example, that if instead of referencing the positions of the planets on the great circular modulus of the ecliptic in degrees and minutes of longitude from the fiducial say at the Spring Equinox, we instead carried this referencing on the great circular modulus of the celestial equator (like astronomers do)in degrees of Right Ascension from the same fiducial at the Spring Equinox (which is where these 2 great celestial circles, the ecliptic and the Equator, intersect, besides of at its opposite point at zero Libra of course), then we would need to rely a.
- lot more on declination, for completeness sake, than we actually rely on ecliptic Latitude when we use the ecliptic instead of the Equator. ...
- Instead of referencing the positions of the fixed stars on the ecliptic modulus, or on the equatorial modulus, we referenced them onto another, arbitrary great circle, maybe not too far from either of these 2 ones so as to not get too far off anyway from where the planetary action is at in heavens, then we would have to rely a great deal more on the second coordinate, the "y". On the ecliptic, the "x" is longitude of course, and the "y" is Latitude. ... But this 3rd circle is arbitrary, although its center is also the center of the earth like for the ecliptic and the equatorial great circles. In this 3rd circle we are going to reference the positions of the planets now, instead of in the ecliptic as we usually do.
- The "x" now in this 3rd circle will be measured also in degrees from the same fiducial as in the other 2 great circles of heavens, the one astrologers use (ecliptic) and the one astronomers use (equator), namely the zero Aries. And the "y" will be measured along the perpendicular just like the Latitude in the ecliptic modulus or the Declination in the equatorial modulus. If my contention is correct, then what I am saying is that because the ecliptic has greater true astrological modularity, latitude is less important than if we did the measuring on the equator, where declination becomes more necessary than Latitude was in the ecliptic modulus; and even much more important will be the "y" measurement if we were instead using the imaginary and arbitrary 3rd great circular modulus I described. ...
- Because the ecliptic is really the best astrological modulus possible, when we measure upon it, one single coordinate, namely ecliptic longitude, can actually do marvels. That's the corollary of the axiom of ecliptic modularity.

- Ecliptic coordinate system.
- The ecliptic coordinate system is a celestial coordinate system that uses the ecliptic for its fundamental plane. The ecliptic is the path that the sun appears to follow across the sky over the course of a year. ... The latitudinal angle is called the ecliptic latitude, and the longitudinal angle is called the ecliptic longitude. Like right ascension in the equatorial coordinate system, the zeropoint of the ecliptic longitude is the vernal equinox. ...
- What do you think such a coordinate system would be useful for? If you guessed charting solar system objects, you're right! Each of the planets (except Pluto) orbits the sun in roughly the same plane, so they always appear to be somewhere near the ecliptic (i. ... , they always have small ecliptic latitudes). ...

- Ecliptic longitude is one of the co-ordinates which can be used to define the location of an astronomical object on the celestial sphere in ecliptic coordinates. In this system, the celestial sphere is divided into two hemispheres by the plane of the ecliptic. ...
- The ecliptic is the path followed by the sun across the celestial sphere during the year. ... There is no obvious point along the ecliptic at which ecliptic longitude should be zero, and so zero is arbitrarily defined as the location of the sun at Vernal equinox. Ecliptic longitude is then the angular distance of the object eastwards along the ecliptic from this point. ...

- The Ecliptic.
- Because of its relation to eclipses, that path is known as the ecliptic. ...
- The significance of the ecliptic is evident if we examine the Earth's orbit around the Sun. That orbit lies in a plane, flat like a tabletop, called the plane of the ecliptic (or sometimes just "the ecliptic"). ... The far end of that line then traces the ecliptic on the celestial sphere; if you have a star chart handy (it is often included in an atlas), you will find the ecliptic traced there, too. ...
- Planets seen in the sky are always near the ecliptic, which means that their orbits are never too far from the plane of the ecliptic. ...
- What about the connection between "ecliptic" and eclipses? .
- The moon's orbit cuts the ecliptic at a shallow angle, around 5 degrees, which means that on the celestial sphere the Moon, too, follows a path through the zodiac. Half the time the Moon is north of the ecliptic, half the time south of it. ...
- Since the Sun and Earth are in the plane of the ecliptic, the line is automatically in that plane too; if the moon is also on the same line, it must be in the plane of the ecliptic as well. ...
- It takes close to a month for the Moon to go around the Earth ("month" comes from "Moon") and during that time its orbit crosses the ecliptic twice, as it goes from one side to the other. At the time of crossing, the Sun may be anywhere along the ecliptic; usually it is not on the Earth-Moon line, and therefore an eclipse usually does not take place. ...
