Astrological Midpoints History of Midpoint Combinations What is a Midpoint?The use of midpoints historically goes back to 1200 AD when Guido Bonati, a famous ItalianAstrologer, used half sums, otherwise known as midpoints, in his interpretation of a chart. Morerecently at the turn of the century, Alan Leo, a famous British Astrologer, used midpoints alongwith solar arc directions. I personally have no knowledge of the use of midpoints combinedwith the 90-degree dial prior to its use by Reinhold Ebertin and Alfred Witte at the beginning ofthe Nineteen Hundreds. The history of solar arcs on the other hand, goes back to Ptolemy whoused primary directions in the second century. A midpoint is the center between any two points, which in Astrology relates to the centerbetween two planets and/or personal points, including the Midheaven, Ascendant, and the Nodes.This center point is the meeting of planetary energies that becomes active through the process ofgrowth, relating to the passage of time. We relate to the aspects formed by the heavenly bodiesthrough spatial relationship. This system as I mentioned earlier goes back to Reinhold Ebertinwho, near the turn of the century developed this system along with Alfred Witte by taking a360-degree wheel and breaking it down into a 90-degree dial. Ebertin believed that hard aspectscreated events in one's life thus; the use of the 90-degree dial became a viable tool for forecastingfuture events. Ebertin started by placing the planets into three sections -- 30 degrees forCardinal Positions which include: Aries, Cancer, Libra and Capricorn points; 30 degrees forFixed Positions which include: Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius points; and 30 degrees forMutable Positions which include: Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces points.This system can be seen on the 90 degree dial as 0 to 30 degrees as Cardinal, 30 to 60 degreesFixed and 60 to 90 degrees as Mutable positions for the planetary points to be placed inaccordance of their quality. How to Use this Horoscope System This system can be used to add great insight into the interpretations of the natal chart through theuse of delineation of transits, progressions, solar arcs and degree arcs. In fact it can be used inalmost any interpretive form of astrology where timing is added into the equation. Timing iswhere this type of Astrology becomes very precise and accurate. The best way to use this systemis to incorporate the natal midpoint along with the time that its energy becomes activated bydirecting the planets into the future. This is done by Solar Arc, which is the distance it takes forthe Sun to move from one day to the next at the time of one’s birth, which is approximately 59’to 1 degree 2’, which is then added to the age in question. We can also use degree arcs, knownas age arcs, which is equivalent to one degree equals one year, times the number of years old youare now and/or when the specific event in question occurred. It may sound difficult, but it’s notonce you become familiar with this system of delineation. When using this tool you will noticethat I have included health interpretations along with dietary issues, which often come up whenthere is a lack of good nutrition or assimilation of nutrients. This can be seen easily through theactivation of the natal midpoints on the 90-degree dial. Thus, I included medical interpretationsin most of the midpoint structures. Each midpoint structure has many meanings, so I have narrowed it down to the most importantinterpretation of each of them based upon my years of past experience. These interpretationsare done in the higher and lower, or shadow manifestations. We are all on the earth plane ofexistence, thus no matter how enlightened we may seem, we still have to deal with our shadow.Many midpoints include births, health areas and transitions and only a part of what is said mayapply to you personally. But on the other hand the whole interpretation may apply. I haveincluded the positive and negative side of each of these midpoints so as to reach all probableoutcomes.
