The Doctrine of Mundane Astrology
世俗占星学理论
MUNDANE ASTROLOGY is the science of the influence of the heavenly bodies as they affect the world, nations, cities, communities and other groups of people Any organization of individuals functioning under a common governing authority constitutes an entity. As such it attracts to itself fortunate and unfortunate events in a manner quite similar to that in which like events are attracted into the life of man. Both have birth charts which if known correctly map their characters; and both are influenced by picking up, radio fashion, four-dimensional vibrations through changes in their finer structures which are mapped by progressed aspects.
世俗占星学是研究天体对世界、国家、城市、社区和其他人群组织的影响的科学。任何在共同管理机构下运作的个体组织都构成一个实体。因此,它会吸引幸运和不幸的事件,其方式与这些事件吸引到个人生活中的方式非常相似。两者都有出生星盘,如果绘制正确,这些星盘可以反映它们的特质;两者都受到影响,就像无线电接收信号一样,通过其更精微结构的改变来接收四维振动,这些振动由推运相位来体现。
Progressed aspects indicate the release of energies within the astral body of man that build across his four-dimensional form temporary stellar aerials. These temporary stellar aerials, so long as they function, pick up planetary energies of definite type, endow them with discordant static or pleasing harmony, and transmit them to the thought-cells within the astral body at their terminals.
推运相位表明人体星光体内部能量的释放,这些能量在其四维形态上构建起临时的星体天线。这些临时的星体天线只要运作,就会接收特定类型的行星能量,赋予它们不和谐的干扰或令人愉悦的和谐,并将它们传输到星光体末端的思想细胞。
The astral body of man is composed of thought-cells, or stellar cells, as they also commonly are called. These thought-cells, receiving a new supply of energy from the temporary stellar aerials, acquire unusual activity. They thus work from their four-dimensional plane to attract events into the life.
人体星光体由思想细胞(或通常也称为星体细胞)组成。这些思想细胞从临时星体天线接收到新的能量供应后,会变得异常活跃。因此,它们从四维层面运作,吸引事件进入生活。
According to their original composition, and the discord or harmony of the energy added to them as mapped by the progressed aspect, do they feel beneficent or malignant. To the extent they feel beneficent they work to attract fortunate events. But to the extent they feel malignant do they work to attract misfortune. The importance of the event attracted depends upon the amount of energy they acquire.
根据它们的原始构成以及由推运相位所体现的能量的和谐或不和谐程度,它们会感受到吉利或凶险。在它们感受到吉利的时候,它们会努力吸引幸运的事件。但当它们感受到凶险时,它们就会努力吸引不幸。所吸引事件的重要性取决于它们获得的能量多少。
These stellar cells, of which the astral body of man is composed, occupy definite compartments within his finer form, as mapped by the houses of the birth chart. The department of life to which an event attracted by a progressed aspect relates is determined by the compartment in the astral body the thought-cells of which receive the additional energy. This is revealed by the house occupied by each planet involved in the progressed aspect.
这些构成人体星光体的星体细胞,占据着人体更精微形态中的特定区域,这些区域由出生星盘的宫位来体现。由推运相位所吸引的事件与哪个生活领域相关,取决于星光体中接收额外能量的思想细胞所在的区域。这可以通过参与推运相位的每个行星所在的宫位来揭示。
This whole matter is set forth in all its details in Course 10. It is mentioned here, not to explain it, but because the individuals of a corporation, a city or a nation play very much the same part in Mundane Astrology that the thought-cells within the astral body of man play in natal astrology.
所有这些细节都在第10课中进行了阐述。这里提及它并非为了解释它,而是因为公司、城市或国家中的个体在世俗占星学中所扮演的角色,与人体星光体中的思想细胞在命理占星学中所扮演的角色非常相似。
These individuals are thinking units within the body of the community. The community birth chart indicates the character of the community as a functioning whole. As progressed aspects form to the birth chart and progressed planets in this community chart, thought trains are released. These link certain individuals of similar motives and ideas together in a manner that enables them, and the thought-forms they generate, to perform the same function performed by a temporary stellar aerial stretching across the astral body of individual man.
这些个体是社区整体中的思维单元。社区星盘揭示了社区作为一个整体的运作特征。随着推运星体与社区星盘形成相位,以及推运行星在社区星盘中的运行,一系列思想流被释放出来。这些思想流以某种方式将具有相似动机和想法的个体联系起来,使他们以及他们产生的思想形态能够发挥与横跨个体星体上的临时星际天线相同的功能。
Through this thought-chain, and those persons which thus act as receiving terminals, because they have so completely tuned in on certain planetary vibrations, additional planetary energy finds its way to various members of the community. These feel in a particular way in reference to community effort, depending upon the type and harmony or discord of their respective characters and the type and harmony or discord of the new energy thus received.
通过这条思想链,以及那些因此充当接收终端的人(因为他们已经完全与某些行星振动频率同步),额外的行星能量得以传递到社区的各个成员。这些成员会根据他们各自的性格类型、和谐或不和谐程度,以及接收到的新能量的类型、和谐或不和谐程度,对社区的努力产生特定的感受。
According to the way they feel and think and act, in response to the new four-dimensional energy received, is the event attracted through their activities harmonious or discordant. And according to the trend of their thinking and activities is one department of community life affected instead of another.
根据他们对接收到的新的四维能量的感受、想法和行动方式,他们通过自身活动吸引来的事件可能是和谐的,也可能是不和谐的。而根据他们的思维和活动倾向,社区生活的某个方面会受到影响,而不是其他方面。
Progressions Are Calculated For Nations Cities and Corporations
国家、城市和公司的推运计算
During the seven years since this Course on Mundane Astrology was first published our research department has diligently investigated the birth charts and progressed aspects of all countries and towns for which it could obtain accurate birth-data. However, the number of authentic birth charts of these larger groups which it has been able to obtain is disappointingly small.
自本《世俗占星学课程》首次出版以来的七年里,我们的研究部门一直致力于调查所有能够获得准确出生数据的国家和城镇的出生星盘和推运相位。然而,我们能够获得的这些大型群体的真实出生星盘数量却少得令人失望。
But it has not been so difficult to get the correct birth information of corporations.
但获取公司的正确出生信息却并不那么困难。
The result of this research work indicates that while countries and sections of countries respond more pronouncedly to Cycles and current astronomical phenomena than individuals do, that they, as well as cities and lesser corporations, are influenced much as individuals are by Major Progressions, Minor Progressions and Transits.
这项研究工作的结果表明,虽然国家和国家的部分地区比个人对周期和当前天文现象的反应更为显著,但它们以及城市和规模较小的公司,与个人一样,也受到主要推运、次要推运和行运的影响。
A nation, or a section of the country, responds so pronouncedly to Cycles and current astronomical positions, that even when the birth chart of the nation is known, these should receive special consideration. But I believe that if reliance had to be placed upon only one type of influence that far greater precision could be obtained through the use of Major Progressions, Minor Progressions and Transits, than through the use of Cycles and current astronomical positions.
一个国家或国家的一部分对周期和当前天文位置的反应如此显著,以至于即使已知该国的出生星盘,也应该特别考虑这些因素。但我相信,如果只能依赖一种影响因素,那么使用主要推运、次要推运和行运比使用周期和当前天文位置能够获得更高的精度。
Our experience has been, although that experience has been limited by necessity in the case of nations and cities, that in predicting events for a nation, city, town or corporation, nothing else gives the details and precision that can be gained by the use of a correct birth chart and progressed aspects. The mathematical work is identical in working progressions for these larger entities, with that used in working progressions for an individual, as set forth in Course 10. The interpretation of the progressed aspects thus ascertained deviates from that given in Course 10 only to the extent made necessary in considering a group instead of an individual.
我们的经验表明(尽管在国家和城市方面,这种经验必然受到限制),在预测国家、城市、城镇或公司的事件时,没有什么比使用正确的出生星盘和推运相位更能提供细节和精确度。为这些大型实体计算推运的数学方法与第10课中阐述的为个人计算推运的方法相同。对由此确定的推运相位的解释与第10课中的解释有所不同,但这种差异仅限于考虑的是群体而不是个人。
In the case of most countries and cities, however, the difficulty of obtaining a correct birth chart is so great as to prohibit their use. We are, therefore compelled to use, not what we prefer, but that which we can get. Cycles and Major Conjunctions thus give us much information as to what will happen at a specified time within a given area; but they do not clearly designate the city, or other small locality chiefly affected by the event. They do not point out the one specific enterprise, among many of a similar nature, which feels the full weight of the influence. Such details can be had only from progressions calculated to a correctly timed birth chart.
然而,对于大多数国家和城市来说,获取正确的出生星盘非常困难,以至于无法使用。因此,我们不得不使用我们能够获得的资料,而不是我们想要的资料。周期和主要合相可以为我们提供大量关于特定时间特定区域内将发生什么的信息;但它们无法清楚地指出主要受事件影响的城市或其他小区域。它们也无法指出众多类似企业中究竟是哪一家企业会受到这种影响的全部冲击。这些细节只能通过根据准确的出生时间计算出的星盘推算才能获得。
The Moment of Birth of a Corporation
公司的诞生时刻
Such correct birth charts are not so difficult to obtain for corporations. Particularly is this true in reference to the new corporations which are formed from time to time. The data are so fresh in the minds of those forming them that they are easily procured. And more frequently than the general public recognizes, an astrologer is called in to determine the most propitious time for launching such a corporate venture.
对于公司而言,获得如此准确的出生星盘并非难事。对于那些不时成立的新公司来说尤其如此。由于相关数据在公司创始人脑海中记忆犹新,因此很容易获取。而且,比公众普遍认为的更为频繁的是,人们会请占星师来确定启动此类公司业务的最佳时机。
But whether to select the proper time to bring a new corporation into existence, or to be able to determine the characteristics and general fortune of one already in existence, and the event likely to be attracted by each progressed aspect that forms, it is essential that the true moment of birth be known, for which the birth chart should be erected. This raises the question as to just what marks the true moment of birth.
但是,无论是选择合适的时机成立新公司,还是确定已成立公司的特征和总体运势,以及预测每个推进相位可能带来的事件,都必须了解真正的诞生时刻,并据此绘制出生星盘。这就引出了一个问题:究竟是什么标志着真正的诞生时刻?
It is customary, in the formation of a corporation, for an attorney to draw up the Articles of Incorporation, have them signed by those forming the corporation, and forward them to the proper State authority. This State authority signs the proper papers giving permission to the corporation to function according to its Articles of Incorporation.
在公司成立过程中,通常由律师起草公司章程,由公司创始人签署,然后提交给相应的州政府机构。该州政府机构签署相关文件,授权公司根据其公司章程开展业务。
Before the coiporation can thus function, however, it must formulate and adopt rules and regulations for the conduct of its affairs which are not specified in the Articles of Incorporation.
然而,在公司正式运营之前,它必须制定并采纳一些章程细则,以规范其章程中未规定的事务。
Commonly a set of By-Laws has been drafted by the attorney, and after he receives the charter of the corporation, signed by the State, granting the corporation permission to function, he calls the first official meeting of the trustees or board of directors. The chief object of this first meeting is to enable the trustees or board of directors to adopt the By-Laws which shall govern them in their subsequent business and other transactions.
通常,律师会起草一套公司章程细则。在收到州政府签署的公司章程,即授予公司运营许可的文件后,律师会召集董事会或理事会的第一次正式会议。这次会议的主要目的是让董事会或理事会通过章程细则,以便在后续的业务和其他交易中遵循这些细则。
The formation of the corporation, receiving a charter signed by the State, and the formulating of the By-Laws, all seem to me to belong to the period of gestation. The attorney acts as midwife. He delivers the State charter, Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws to the trustees or board of directors. Their signing acceptance of them is the first independent act of the corporation.
公司的成立、获得州政府签署的章程以及章程细则的制定,在我看来都属于公司的孕育期。律师扮演着助产士的角色。他将州政府颁发的章程、公司章程和章程细则交付给董事会或理事会。他们签署接受这些文件是公司独立运作的第一个行为。
As the corporation does not function, but has merely been granted privilege by the State to function, until its directors or trustees have thus signed the By-Laws, or such papers as shall govern its future activities, this act of signing acceptance by those who are to handle its affairs, seems to me to mark the true moment of birth.
由于这家公司尚未正式运作,而只是获得了国家的经营许可,直到其董事或受托人签署了公司章程或任何其他规范其未来活动的法律文件,在我看来,这些负责公司事务的人签署接受文件的行为,才标志着公司真正诞生的时刻。
Coordinating the Heavens With Geographic Areas
将天体与地理区域联系起来
Assuredly there is a definite correspondence between geographic positions and celestial influences. Many years ago Albert Ross Parsons, in a book now long out of print, published a map, which used the Great Pyramid of Gizeh as a starting point from which to coordinate geographic longitude with zodiacal longitude, and thus obtain the sign and degree ruling each degree of longitude on the earth’s surface.
地理位置与天体影响之间确实存在着某种确定的对应关系。许多年前,阿尔伯特·罗斯·帕森斯(Albert Ross Parsons)在一本现已绝版的书中发表了一张地图,该地图以吉萨大金字塔为起点,将地理经度与黄道经度联系起来,从而确定地球表面每个经度所对应的星座和度数。
Later, Sepharial published his Theory of Geodetic Equivalents, in which he assumes that 0—degrees longitude on the earth’s surface corresponds to 0— degrees Aries on the ecliptic, that 30 degrees longitude on the earth’s surface corresponds to 0—degrees Taurus, that 60 degrees longitude on the earth’s surface corresponds to 0—degrees Gemini, etc.
后来,塞法里尔(Sepharial)发表了他的“大地测量等效理论”,他假设地球表面0度经度对应于黄道上的白羊座0度,地球表面30度经度对应于金牛座0度,地球表面60度经度对应于双子座0度,依此类推。
These correspondences are for the midheaven of the locality. Therefore, to find the rising sign and degree, simply use the degree thus indicated on the cusp of the 10th house, and from a table of houses for the latitude of the place ascertain the sign and degree on the Ascendant when this degree is on the M.C. The geodetic M.C. of Chicago, thus obtained, for instance, is Capricorn 2—0, and the Ascendant is Aries 3—53. The M.C. of San Francisco, following this procedure, is Scorpio 27—35, and its Ascendant is Aquarius 7 42.
这些对应关系指的是当地的中天。因此,要找到上升星座和度数,只需使用第十宫宫头所指示的度数,然后根据该地纬度的星盘表,确定当该度数位于中天时,上升点上的星座和度数。例如,芝加哥的大地测量中天(M.C.)是摩羯座2度0分,上升点(Ascendant)是白羊座3度53分。按照这种方法,旧金山的中天是天蝎座27度35分,上升点是水瓶座7度42分。
L. Edward Johndro points out, with apparent justification, that the rulership of areas on the earth’s surface according to the correspondence between geographic longitude and the signs and degrees of the zodiac, gradually shifts, due to the precession of the equinoxes. From pyramidal and other data, he places the correspondence of 0— degrees Aries on the M.C. as west longitude 29—10 on the earth’s surface.
L.爱德华·约翰德罗(L. Edward Johndro)似乎有理有据地指出,由于岁差的影响,地球表面区域的统治星座(根据地理经度与黄道星座和度数的对应关系)会逐渐发生变化。根据金字塔和其他数据,他将白羊座0度位于中天时的对应位置确定为地球表面西经29度10分。
Paul Counsil, following rather closely the methods of Mr. Johndro, but using other data to establish the starting point, finds that 0—degrees Aries on the M.C. corresponds in 1930 to west longitude 36—42. Using this as a basic point of reference, he spreads the stars upon a map of the earth.
保罗·康西尔(Paul Counsil)相当密切地遵循了约翰德罗先生的方法,但使用其他数据来确定起点,他发现1930年白羊座0度位于中天时对应于西经36度42分。他以此为基本参考点,将恒星分布在地球地图上。
These efforts to establish the correct coordinates between each area of the earth and its celestial correspondence are deserving of every encouragement. Even though there is still a difference of opinion as to how the coordinates should be determined, still, such coordinates must exist, and when enough research has been done, no doubt, the correct ones will get proper recognition.
这些旨在确定地球上每个区域与其天体对应关系之间正确坐标的努力值得我们大力支持。尽管关于如何确定这些坐标仍然存在分歧,但这些坐标必然存在,而且一旦进行了足够的研究,毫无疑问,正确的坐标终将得到认可。
I feel quite sure that each area of the earth’s surface does thus have its correspondence in the sky which has an influence over it. Yet in the Hermetic System of Mundane Astrology, instead of dealing chiefly with land areas, which are stationary, we devote our attention as largely as possible to actual groups of people.
我坚信,地球表面的每个区域在天空中都有其对应的天体,并受到其影响。然而,在赫尔墨斯世俗占星术体系中,我们并非主要关注静止不变的陆地区域,而是尽可能地将注意力集中在实际的人群群体上。
In every birth chart the geographic position of the individual at the moment of his birth must be considered in erecting the chart. But after the individual has been born, the fact that he moves to some distant place is entirely subordinate in its influence over his life to the Major Progression in his birth chart which impelled him to make the move.
在绘制每个人的星盘时,必须考虑此人出生时的地理位置。但此人出生后,他迁移到某个遥远地方的事实,其对生活的影响远不如其星盘中的主要推运所带来的影响重要,正是这些推运促使他做出迁移的决定。
If, therefore, it is possible to secure the actual birth chart of an individual, a corporation, a city or a nation, I am convinced this chart, erected and progressed according to the accepted method, is the best of all indices as to when, and what, events will be attracted.
因此,如果能够获得个人、公司、城市或国家的实际星盘,我相信,根据公认的方法绘制和推运的星盘是预测何时会发生何种事件的最佳指标。
Yet entirely aside from such a birth chart, and aside from coordinates, practical experience indicates that the important events which are to happen within a given area are all foreshown by other astronomical relations, chiefly by the heavier aspects which have some influence over the world as a whole, and by Cyclic Charts and the Charts of Major Conjunctions erected for that area.
然而,除了这样的星盘和坐标之外,实践经验表明,特定区域内即将发生的重大事件都可以通过其他天文关系预示,主要是那些对整个世界产生影响的重大相位,以及为该区域绘制的周期图和主要合相图。
General Astronomical Phenomena
一般天象现象
The sign occupied by each of the major planets, and the aspects that form between these planets from time to time, have an influence over the trend of world events. Where these events chiefly will take place must be determined from the specific birth charts and progressions, or lacking these, from the Cyclic Charts, of the nations, cities and communities of the world.
各大行星所处的星座位置以及它们之间不时形成的相位,都会影响世界事件的走向。这些事件主要会在哪些地方发生,必须根据具体的出生星盘和推运图来确定,如果没有这些资料,则需要根据世界各国、城市和社区的周期图来确定。
The whole world often is somewhat affected by a given astronomical relationship; but as a rule certain regions of the earth are much more affected than others. For instance, the discovery of the new planet, Pluto, early in 1930 was coincident with a financial depression which affected the whole world.
某种特定的天象关系通常会对整个世界产生一定的影响;但一般来说,地球上的某些地区受到的影响比其他地区更大。例如,1930年初新行星冥王星的发现恰逢一场影响全球的经济大萧条。
For about seven years after its discovery Pluto was continuously afflicted by the square of the disruptive planet, Uranus, and at times also by the square of Jupiter and the opposition of Saturn.
冥王星发现后的七年左右,一直受到具有破坏性的天王星的刑相位影响,有时还会受到木星的刑相位和土星的冲相位影响。
No country in the world escaped serious difficulties. But some countries were more influenced than others, and to determine where the influence would thus most pronouncedly be felt, something more than these general astronomical positions had to be known.
世界上没有哪个国家能够幸免于难。但有些国家受到的影响比其他国家更大,要确定这种影响在哪里最为显著,就必须了解更多信息,而不仅仅是这些一般性的天象位置。
In the birth chart of the U. S., given at the front of this lesson, Neptune, the planet of inflation, of promotion schemes, and of exaggerated expectations, is in the house of speculation (5th). Mars is the planet of energy and of over expansion. In 1929, by Major Progression, Mars, co-ruler of the people of the U. S. (1st), came conjunction Neptune r, stimulating a wild period of stock-market and other speculation, in which a large part of the population took part. Any astrologer, observing this affliction in the 5th house of an individual, would have advised caution and conservatism. But typical of Mars conjunction Neptune, caution was thrown to the wind in the hope of some wonderful gain.
在本课开头给出的美国出生星盘中,代表通货膨胀、投机计划和过度期望的海王星位于投机宫(第五宫)。火星是代表能量和过度扩张的行星。1929年,通过主推运法,作为美国人民共同守护星(第一宫)的火星与海王星合相,刺激了股市和其他投机活动的疯狂时期,大量民众参与其中。任何占星师如果观察到个人星盘第五宫出现这种不利相位,都会建议谨慎保守。但典型的火星合相海王星的特征是,人们为了获得巨额收益而抛弃了谨慎。
Venus in the U. S. chart is in the house of money (2nd). By December, 1929, the Moon, by Major Progression, was in the house of speculation (5th), making the perfect square to Venus r. Early November, 1929, was the time the stock-market broke. Mars had passed the perfect conjunction to Neptune r by only 20 minutes, and by mid-November the Moon was within one degree of the perfect square to Venus r, by Major Progression. This was the time when a vast number of people suffered financial loss.
在美国的星盘中,金星位于财帛宫(第二宫)。到1929年12月,通过主推运法,月亮进入投机宫(第五宫),与金星形成完美的刑相位。1929年11月初,股市崩盘。火星与海王星的完美合相仅过去了20分钟,到11月中旬,通过主推运法,月亮与金星的完美刑相位仅相差不到一度。当时,无数人遭受了经济损失。
It marked the commencement of a financial depression affecting the whole world, coincident with the influence of an afflicted Pluto. Pluto at that time, by Transit, was in the 2nd house (money) of the U. S. chart, and did not permanently leave it until 1933. Thus was it shown, by the progressions in its birth chart, that the U. S. would be more affected by the general afflictions in the sky than most other countries.
这标志着一场影响全世界的经济萧条的开始,恰逢冥王星受到不利影响。当时,冥王星通过运行轨迹进入了美国星盘的第二宫(财帛宫),直到1933年才永久离开。因此,从美国出生星盘的推运来看,美国比大多数其他国家更容易受到天体不利影响的冲击。
In the space at my disposal I can not give historical references covering many events of wide significance which have been indicated by current astronomical positions. All I can hope to do is to point the method of research to be followed by anyone desirous of tracing the pattern of history in its various details.
由于篇幅有限,我无法列举许多由当前天体位置所预示的具有广泛意义的历史事件。我只能指出研究方法,供任何希望追溯历史细节的人参考。
Merely as an example, necessarily curtailed, of what I mean, it may be noticed that before the disruptive planet Uranus moved permanently away from the aspect, it made the perfect square to Pluto five distinct times. And each time there was a shattering of precedent in America, in Europe, and in the Orient.
仅举一个必然简略的例子,我们可以注意到,在具有破坏性的天王星永久离开某个相位之前,它与冥王星形成了五次精确的四分相。而每一次,美国、欧洲和东方都发生了打破先例的事件。
The first square occurred April 21, 1932. In the Far East, Japan decided to acquire Manchuria by military aggression. In Europe a financial crisis arose, with open threats of bankruptcy on the part of Germany, and a possibility of revolution. In the U. S., to avert the threatened condition in Europe, President Hoover declared a moratorium on the June payments due this country, thus setting a precedent and greatly deepening the depression in the U. S. (where Pluto by Transit was still in the money house).
第一次四分相发生在1932年4月21日。在远东,日本决定通过军事侵略占领满洲。在欧洲,爆发了金融危机,德国公开威胁破产,并有可能发生革命。在美国,为了避免欧洲的危机蔓延,胡佛总统宣布暂停支付应于6月到期的款项,从而开创了一个先例,并大大加深了美国的经济萧条(当时冥王星仍在运行轨迹上位于财帛宫)。
The second square of Uranus to Pluto occurred Sept. 3, 1932. In Europe the League of Nations told Japan to get out of Manchuria. In the Far East, Japan told the League of Nations to mind its own affairs, and continued establishing herself in Manchuria. In the U. S., Bonus Marchers in Washington were fired upon, one was killed, and their shelters were burned. They were driven from Washington like starving cattle.
第二次天王星与冥王星的四分相发生在1932年9月3日。在欧洲,国际联盟要求日本撤出满洲。在远东,日本告诉国际联盟不要干涉其内政,并继续在满洲巩固其统治。在美国,华盛顿的退伍军人游行队伍遭到枪击,一人死亡,他们的营地被烧毁。他们像饥饿的牲畜一样被赶出华盛顿。
The third square of Uranus to Pluto occurred March 8, 1933. In the Far East, Japan withdrew from the League of Nations and started an invasion of China. In Europe, Hitler became dictator of Germany, compelled the religions to make revisions to his order, and started a campaign of persecuting the Jews. In the U. S., all banks in the country were closed for about two weeks.
第三次天王星与冥王星的四分相发生在1933年3月8日。在远东,日本退出国际联盟,并开始入侵中国。在欧洲,希特勒成为德国独裁者,强迫宗教团体按照他的命令进行改革,并开始了一场迫害犹太人的运动。在美国,全国所有银行都关闭了大约两周。
October 22, after the aspect had come within the one degree of perfect, Roosevelt in a radio address announced a managed currency program through attempting to control prices by establishing a free gold market. Oct. 24, Roosevelt ordered NRA Director Johnson to recommend prohibitive tariffs on articles whose importation hampers recovery, and Secretary Ickes allotted $6,000,000 PWA funds for All-American Canal in Imperial Valley, giving employment to 9,000 men. Oct. 25, Roosevelt ordered AAA to loan up to 4 cents a bushel on warehoused corn to farmers pledged to reduction program; and RFC set price of newly-mined domestic gold at $31.36 instead of the former standard price of $20.67 per ounce.
10月22日,当星象接近完美角度仅差一度时,罗斯福在广播讲话中宣布了一项管理货币计划,试图通过建立自由黄金市场来控制物价。10月24日,罗斯福命令国家复兴管理局局长约翰逊建议对阻碍经济复苏的进口商品征收高额关税;伊克斯部长拨出600万美元的公共工程管理局资金用于帝国谷的全美运河项目,为9000人提供了就业机会。10月25日,罗斯福命令农业调整管理局向参与减产计划的农民提供每蒲式耳最高4美分的仓储玉米贷款;重建金融公司将新开采的国内黄金价格定为每盎司31.36美元,而不是之前的标准价格20.67美元。
The aspect also had a constructive influence in many other countries, depending upon the progressions operative in their charts at the time. But I believe sufficient has been said about aspects as they are shown in the ephemeris.
这种星象对许多其他国家也产生了建设性的影响,具体影响取决于当时这些国家星盘中的运行情况。但我相信,关于星历表中显示的星象,我已经说得够多了。
In many countries the date of whose births are unknown, observation has caused astrologers to believe they are ruled by certain signs. When, through the observed effect of planets transiting a certain sign, or from other astronomical phenomena occurring in the sign, it becomes fairly certain of the sign ruling a country or city, the Transit of a slow-moving planet through the sign, or a Major Conjunction or other phenomena taking place in the sign, may be made the basis of determining some of the things which will happen in that country or city. The signs also rule certain departments of endeavor in the world’s affairs. And such things in general as the signs thus rule are affected by the Transit of a heavy planet through the sign.
在许多出生日期不详的国家,占星家通过观察发现,这些国家似乎受某些星座的支配。当通过观察行星运行经过某个星座的影响,或从该星座发生的其他天文现象,可以相当确定某个星座支配着某个国家或城市时,缓慢运行的行星经过该星座,或在该星座发生的重大合相或其他现象,就可以作为确定该国家或城市将发生的一些事情的基础。这些星座也支配着世界事务中的某些领域。而这些由星座支配的事物通常会受到重行星经过该星座的影响。
Examples of a Planet Transiting Through a Sign
行星运行经过星座的例子
Again I have space to devote to this merely sufficient to enable me to point out to such as are interested in tracing such matters, how to proceed. What follows, therefore, is not an attempt at a full exposition, but is put forward only to give hints which may advantageously be followed.
我再次只能用有限的篇幅来讲解这个问题,仅仅是为了让那些有兴趣研究这些事情的人了解如何进行。因此,以下内容并非全面阐述,而只是提供一些可能有所帮助的提示。
We know too little about Pluto’s influence in the past to use this most slow-moving planet in our examples. But Neptune, next slowest in motion, takes about 14 years to Transit each zodiacal sign. I shall give slight attention to its beneficial influence, and confine my observations to its well recognized proclivity when afflicted of creating a chaotic state of affairs. As a matter of fact, such chaos frequently compels drastic steps to be taken in the direction of true progress.
我们对冥王星过去的影响知之甚少,因此无法在我们的例子中使用这颗运行最慢的行星。但海王星是运行速度第二慢的行星,它大约需要14年才能运行经过每个黄道星座。我将略微提及它的积极影响,并将我的观察局限于它在受到影响时容易造成混乱的众所周知倾向。事实上,这种混乱常常迫使人们采取果断措施,从而推动真正的进步。
Neptune was in the sign Cancer from June, 1902 to May, 1916. Cancer rules the home and it rules the ocean. It was during this period that the submarine was developed into an instrument of practical use in warfare. It became effective during the World War. Being hidden from view, and secretive in its method of attack, it well exemplifies Neptune.
海王星于1902年6月至1916年5月位于巨蟹座。巨蟹座掌管家庭和海洋。正是在这段时期,潜艇被发展成为一种实用的战争工具,并在第一次世界大战期间发挥了作用。由于潜艇隐蔽不见,攻击方式也十分隐秘,因此它很好地体现了海王星的特质。
Before Neptune entered Cancer, women found ample opportunity to exercise their skill and industry in the home. But not long afterward, machinery was doing nearly all of those things upon which they prided themselves. Deprived of self expression, the home became chaotic, and they began to seek employment elsewhere, entering industry in competition with men.
在海王星进入巨蟹座之前,女性在家中有很多机会发挥她们的技能和勤劳。但不久之后,机器几乎取代了她们引以为傲的所有工作。由于缺乏自我表达的机会,家庭变得混乱,她们开始寻求其他工作,进入工业领域与男性竞争。
From May 1916 to July 1929, Neptune was in Leo, the sign ruling amusements and rulership. Chaos developed as to the ruling authority. Most kings were kicked off their thrones, and in some countries, notably Russia, Turkey and Italy, dictators took their place. Moving pictures developed into the dominant form of entertainment. Y et this industry was thrown into a chaotic state, and was compelled to develop a different type of talent through the introduction of talking pictures.
从1916年5月到1929年7月,海王星位于狮子座,这个星座掌管娱乐和统治。统治权威方面出现了混乱。大多数国王被赶下王位,在一些国家,特别是俄罗斯、土耳其和意大利,独裁者取而代之。电影发展成为主要的娱乐形式。然而,这个行业也陷入了混乱,并被迫通过引入有声电影来发展不同类型的人才。
From July 1929 to August 1943, Neptune is in Virgo, the sign ruling agricultural produce and labor. To decrease the over-abundance of agricultural produce, the U. S. in 1934, paid farmers to reduce acreage and to plough under every third row of cotton. It bought up millions of sows about to farrow and slaughtered them that their pigs might not be born. Yet in the same year unprecedented droughts turned many of the agricultural states into almost desert conditions. Throughout the world the greatest problem is that of unemployment. There were 14,000,000 unemployed in the U. S. in 1933.
从1929年7月到1943年8月,海王星位于处女座,这个星座掌管农产品和劳动。为了减少农产品过剩,美国在1934年向农民支付补贴,让他们减少耕种面积,并将每三行棉花中的一行犁掉。美国政府还收购了数百万即将分娩的母猪并将其屠宰,以防止小猪出生。然而,同年,前所未有的干旱使许多农业州变成了几乎是沙漠的景象。在世界各地,最大的问题是失业。1933年,美国有1400万失业人口。
Next let us briefly consider Uranus, the planet of invention, of radical activities and of disruption. Fie takes about 7 years to pass through each zodiacal sign.
接下来,让我们简要地探讨一下天王星,这颗掌管发明、激进活动和颠覆的行星。它大约需要7年时间才能穿过每个星座。
From December 1904 to November 1912 Uranus was in the sign Capricorn, which rules the country, Mexico, and in business and industry rules system. During this time a revolution overthrew the government of Mexico, and the development of mass production revolutionized industry.
从1904年12月到1912年11月,天王星位于摩羯座,摩羯座掌管墨西哥这个国家,并在商业和工业领域掌管制度。在此期间,一场革命推翻了墨西哥政府,大规模生产的发展也彻底改变了工业。
From November 1912 to January 1920 Uranus was in the sign Aquarius, ruling Russia, and ruling the rights of man. A revolution overthrew the Russian government. The slogan of the nations winning the World War was to make the world safe for democracy. The treaties at the close of the war were based upon the rights of people to self-determination as to allegiance and form of government.
从1912年11月到1920年1月,天王星位于水瓶座,掌管俄罗斯和人权。一场革命推翻了俄国政府。赢得第一次世界大战的国家的口号是“使世界安全地走向民主”。战争结束后的条约以人民自决权为基础,包括选择效忠对象和政府形式的权利。
From January 1920 to January 1928 Uranus was in the sign Pisces, ruling restrictions, relief measures, disappointment and crime. In January, 1920, the prohibition law, which was repealed in 1934, because it was believed to be responsible for developing and financing organized crime, and creating the modern racketeer and gangster, went into effect. Disappointment was expressed in nearly all countries at the failure of ideals which had been encouraged during the war. Each country also felt disappointed at what it received in the final settlement.
从1920年1月到1928年1月,天王星位于双鱼座,掌管限制、救济措施、失望和犯罪。1920年1月,禁酒令生效(该法令于1934年被废除,因为它被认为是导致有组织犯罪发展和资金来源,并催生了现代敲诈勒索者和黑帮分子的罪魁祸首)。几乎所有国家都对战争期间所倡导的理想破灭感到失望。每个国家也对最终的和平解决方案感到失望。
In the U. S. relief measures were constantly before Congress, and those high in public office sold out vast holdings to corporations, and later were successfully prosecuted for bribery; the properties being recovered by the government.
在美国,国会不断讨论救济措施,一些身居高位的官员将大量资产出售给公司,后来因贿赂罪被成功起诉;政府收回了这些财产。
From January 1928 to March 1935 Uranus was in Aries, the sign ruling Germany, ruling manufacturing, and ruling military leadership. A revolution gave Germany a dictator. Japan, hitherto of minor importance, took her place as the rival of both Britain and the U. S. in manufactured products and as a naval power.
从1928年1月到1935年3月,天王星位于白羊座,掌管德国、制造业和军事领导权。一场革命使德国出现了一位独裁者。此前地位并不重要的日本,在制造业和海军实力方面成为英国和美国的竞争对手。
From March 1935 to May 1942, Uranus will be in Taurus, ruling Ireland, and ruling the banks and money.
从1935年3月到1942年5月,天王星将位于金牛座,掌管爱尔兰、银行和货币。
From May 1942 to June 1949, Uranus will be in Gemini, ruling the U. S. A., and ruling newspapers and transportation.
从1942年5月到1949年6月,天王星将位于双子座,掌管美国、报纸和交通运输。
Cycles
周期
A Cycle, as used in Mundane Astrology, is a chart erected at a given locality for the moment a planet crosses the celestial equator from south declination to north declination. The Cycle of the Moon is erected for the moment when the Moon is in conjunction with the Sun.
在世俗占星术中,“周期”是指在特定地点,行星从南纬穿过天赤道到达北纬的那一刻所绘制的星盘。月亮周期是指月亮与太阳合相的那一刻所绘制的星盘。
Each planet thus has its own Cycle, which governs those matters the planet rules. The planet for which the Cycle is erected, as it moves to aspects, by Transit, with the places occupied by the various planets in the Cycle Chart, indicates the time and nature of the events which takes place in the locality for which the chart was erected. The lessons which follow take this matter up in detail.
因此,每颗行星都有自己的周期,这些周期支配着该行星所掌管的事物。行星周期图所对应的行星,在运行过程中与周期图上各行星所处位置形成相位时,预示着该周期图所代表的地区将要发生的事件的时间和性质。接下来的课程将详细探讨这个问题。
Major Conjunctions
主要合相
The conjunction of two planets in the sky corresponds to the convergence of corresponding factors on the earth. And a chart erected for a given locality at the moment of such conjunction indicates the significance of the event thus attracted in that particular region. This also will be given detailed attention in the following lessons.
天空中两颗行星的合相对应着地球上相应因素的汇聚。为特定地区在合相发生时刻绘制的星盘,可以揭示该事件在该地区的重要性。接下来的课程也将对此进行详细阐述。
Birth Charts of Nations and Cities
国家和城市的出生星盘
In lesson No. 142 (see Serial Lesson Key), a list of nations and cities ruled by each zodiacal sign is given. The following is the birth data of some nations and some cities, according to the research of those who have made a special study of them.
在第142课(参见系列课程索引)中,列出了由每个星座守护的国家和城市。以下是一些国家和城市的出生数据,这些数据是根据专门研究这些问题的学者们的研究成果整理而成的。
In no instance do we vouch for the authenticity. They are presented merely as the birth charts commonly used by those most conversant with Mundane Astrology. Twelve of the more important are preceded by numbers. These refer to the table at the front of the lesson, from which the positions of the signs on the houses and the planets in the signs may readily be copied, thus giving the student the birth chart of the nation or city preceded by a number without the work of making the calculations.
我们不保证这些数据的真实性。它们仅作为那些精通世俗占星术的人们常用的出生星盘示例。其中十二个比较重要的星盘前面标有数字。这些数字对应于课程前面的表格,学生可以轻松地从表格中复制宫位上的星座位置和星座中的行星位置,从而无需进行计算即可获得这些国家或城市的出生星盘。

Examples of Major Progressed Aspects in the Birth Charts of Nations and Cities
国家和城市星盘中主要推进相位示例
The following is not an attempt to prove that the birth charts of nations and cities as here given are correct. It merely gives the dates of a few outstanding events, and the Major Progressions at the time in the charts here given. This is to indicate to the student of Mundane Astrology the method to be followed in his work, and what he may expect from progressed aspects.
以下内容并非旨在证明此处给出的国家和城市星盘是正确的。它仅列举了一些重大事件的日期,以及当时星盘中的主要推进相位。目的是向世俗占星学的学习者展示其工作方法,以及他们可以从推进相位中预期到什么。
Major Events are attracted to a nation or a city ONLY when there is a Major Progressed Aspect within one degree of perfect which relates by house position to the department of life affected. Furthermore, even as in natal astrology, Minor Progressed Aspects attract Minor Events, and Aspects by Transit attract Inconsequential Events.
只有当存在与受影响的生活领域相关的、精确度在一度以内的主推进相位时,重大事件才会发生在某个国家或城市。此外,就像本命占星术一样,次要推进相位会吸引次要事件,而行运相位则会吸引无关紧要的事件。
These lesser progressions do not attract Important Events, but by adding accessory energy to Major Progressed aspects may precisely time Important Events.
这些次要推进相位不会吸引重要事件,但它们可以通过为主要推进相位增加辅助能量来精确地确定重要事件发生的时间。
In the following examples, unless otherwise expressly stated, all aspects mentioned are Major Progressed Aspects.
在以下示例中,除非另有明确说明,否则所有提及的相位均为主要推进相位。
Chart 319 is that of the Argentine Republic. Sept. 6,1930, the president having been forced to resign a few days earlier, the vice-president also resigned, and the Military Assembly took possession of the government: Jupiter, ruler of 1st (people), ad been square Saturn p, ruler of 2nd (money) a number of years, and discontent had arisen over the handling of finances. Mars, ruler of 12th (secret enemies), conjunction Jupiter r, ruler of 1 st (people). Sun, ruler of 7th (open enemies), semi-sextile Uranus r in 12th (secret enemies). Mercury, ruler of 10th (administration), square Venus r in 7th (open enemies).

Chart 320 is that of the Republic of Austria. In the summer of 1934 revolution broke out; Asc. opposition Venus p, ruler of the 1st and 7th. Venus inconjunct Pluto r, shows the split into strong conflicting factions; and Mars in 9th (religion) sesqui-square Saturn r, is responsible for religion entering the conflict. Foreign powers aided the revolutionary movement; Sun conjunction Mercury in 7th (foreign nations). The sesqui-square of Mars to Saturn r, ruler of 10th (governing authority), brought an attempt to overthrow the government, and accomplished the assassination of its dictator, Englebert Dollfus, on July 25, 1934.
图表 320 是奥地利共和国的星盘。1934 年夏天,革命爆发;上升点与第一宫和第七宫的守护星金星对冲。金星与冥王星呈梅花相,表明分裂成强大的对立派系;第九宫(宗教)中的火星与土星呈一百三十五度角,导致宗教卷入冲突。外国势力援助了革命运动;太阳与第七宫(外国)中的水星合相。火星与土星(第十宫主星,代表权力)呈135度相位,导致了一场推翻政府的企图,并最终于1934年7月25日刺杀了独裁者恩格尔伯特·多尔富斯。
Chart 321 is that of Boston, Mass. The Great Fire took place Nov. 9-10, 1872. Jupiter, ruler of the 4th (buildings), had progressed to the square of Mars r (fire).

1919年9月9日发生了警察罢工,当时的州长卡尔文·柯立芝平息了罢工,并发表了宣言:“任何人在任何时间、任何地点都没有权利罢工危害公共安全”,这使他获得了全国性的认可:水星(第六宫主星,代表劳工和警察)与逆行的火星(第七宫,代表战争)呈30度相位;太阳与运行中的火星(代表冲突,第十宫主星,代表雇主)呈60度相位;火星与逆行的木星(第十二宫主星,代表犯罪)呈150度相位;土星与逆行的太阳合相。
Chart 322 is that of Chicago, Ill. In the birth chart Mars is in the 1st, conjunction Jupiter and opposition Neptune. At the time of the Great Fire, Oct. 8-10,1871, Mars, after being retrograde had again reached the conjunction Jupiter r; and Venus, ruler of 4th (houses), was trine Mars r and sextile Neptune r, thus adding new energy to the heavy opposition in the birth chart.
图表322是伊利诺伊州芝加哥的星盘。在出生星盘中,火星位于第一宫,与木星合相,并与海王星对冲。1871年10月8日至10日发生大火时,火星逆行后再次与逆行的木星合相;金星(第四宫主星,代表房屋)与逆行的火星呈120度相位,并与逆行的海王星呈60度相位,从而为出生星盘中的强烈对冲相位增添了新的能量。

Chart 323 is that of Cleveland, Ohio. At the time of the serious labor difficulties and strikes of 1934, the Sun was sextile Venus r, ruler of 6th (labor), and was sesqui-square Saturn r, ruler of 2nd (wages).
图表 323 是俄亥俄州克利夫兰的星盘。在 1934 年严重的劳资纠纷和罢工期间,太阳与金星逆行(第六宫主星,代表劳工)呈六分相,并与土星逆行(第二宫主星,代表工资)呈一百三十五度角。
Chart 324 is that of Long Beach, Calif. In the birth chart the Sun is heavily afflicted by the conjunction of Mars and the opposition of Neptune. Pluto is in the 4th (lands and buildings), and at the time of the earthquake, March 10, 1933, the Sun was exactly sesqui-square Pluto p. There was great damage to buildings.
图表 324 是加利福尼亚州长滩的星盘。在出生星盘中,太阳受到火星合相和海王星对冲的严重影响。冥王星位于第四宫(土地和建筑物),在 1933 年 3 月 10 日地震发生时,太阳与冥王星呈精确的一百三十五度角。建筑物遭受了严重破坏。
The Moon (many people) is in the 7th, but is ruler of the 6th (illness). Mars (violence) was exactly inconjunct Moon r. Many persons were injured.

水星(第八宫主星,代表死亡)与位于第八宫的木星(代表死亡)呈四分相。造成了重大人员伤亡。
Finally, the Moon by Major Progression, had moved into the 10th, in sextile to Sunr. This gave the matter wide publicity, and the good aspect thus made by the Moon brought prompt and efficient relief to the many people who were in distress.
最后,通过主限推运,月亮移动到了第十宫,与太阳呈六分相。这使得此事广为人知,月亮形成的良好相位为许多受灾民众带来了及时有效的援助。

Because Major Progressions of the Moon, Minor Progressions and Transits operate in the chart of a city or nation just as they do in the chart of an individual, it would be amiss not to give a few examples of Major Progressed Aspects of the Moon, at least, and the Sub-major events attracted by them. The Major Progressions around the outside of the U. S. Chart given at the front of this lesson are for March 5,1933, when all banks in the country were closed. As the Moon is progressing about 1 degree a month, even without an ephemeris the student easily can trace the progressed aspects it makes during the balance of 1933, and it is these Major Progressed Aspects of the Moon in 1933 that now follow:
由于月亮的主要推进、次要推进和行运在城市或国家的星盘中运作方式与在个人星盘中相同,因此,至少列举一些月亮主要推进相位及其引发的次要事件是很有必要的。本课开头给出的美国星盘外围的主要推进相位是针对1933年3月5日,当时全国所有银行都已关闭。由于月亮每月推进约1度,即使没有星历表,学生也可以轻松追踪月亮在1933年剩余时间里形成的推进相位,以下是1933年月亮的主要推进相位:
