Text/Star Xiaochen (Astrolabe Interpretation)
In addition to the "basic ternary", there is another way to make a simple and basic generalization of the astrolabe in a short period of time, which is called "hemispheric focus". The basic triad (Sun, Rising, Moon) focuses on personality analysis, while the hemisphere focuses on information at the level of life. Moreover, compared with the basic ternary, the hemispheric emphasis method is simpler, and his interpretation effect is extraordinary. Let's take a look at the "hemispheric emphasis".
Hemispheric emphasis on concepts
In a chart, there are two very important dividing lines, the horizon and the meridian, and the hemisphere division of the astrolabe is based on these two lines. The astrolabe is divided by the horizon (the line connecting the ascending and descending points), above the horizon is the upper hemisphere and below the horizon is the lower hemisphere; divided by the meridian (the connection between the zenith and the bottom), the left of the meridian is the eastern hemisphere, and the right of the meridian is the western hemisphere. Each astrolabe has such a regional division.
Hemispheric emphasis refers to a rough judgment of the life of the disk owner by observing which hemisphere most of the planets fall into. The advantage of the hemispheric emphasis is that the method is very simple, we do not have to analyze the constellations and house positions into which the planets fall, nor do we need to analyze any phases, we only need to see which hemisphere most of the planets are gathered in. The shortcomings of the hemispheric emphasis are also obvious, because this method does not interpret specific row constellations, so it can only tell us a vague outline, but can not provide specific information.
Interpretation methods
If most of the planets in a chart fall in the upper hemisphere, then the life of the disk owner will mostly be concentrated in the objective field, and he will be a very grounded person, a practical and life-loving person.
If most of the planets in a astrolabe fall in the lower hemisphere, then the owner of the disk may be a very subjective person, he needs spiritual strength, and the motivation to do things mostly comes from his own inner desire.
If most of the planets in a chart fall in the Eastern Hemisphere (left), then this person is most likely a free-spirited, unconstrained type, and they will choose their own future path without accepting other people's arranged lives.
If in a chart, most of the planets fall in the Western Hemisphere (right), then the life of the disk owner may be on a set trajectory, they may believe in fatalism, believe that everything is predestined, for them, listening to the voice of life may be more important than their own hard work.
There is a point to note here: not everyone's astrolabe is suitable for hemispheric emphasis, and the planetary distribution of some astrolabes is not particularly concentrated in a particular hemisphere, but scattered in different hemispheres, then the life trajectory of the disk owner is more complicated. In such a case, we can ignore this step and instead analyze it by other methods.
Hemispherical emphasis on meaning
The hemispheric emphasis is based on the horizon and the meridian, which is closely related to the zodiac, that is, to the field of our lives. Combined with the above analysis, we can also see that the hemisphere focuses on interpreting some information close to the level of life for us in a very general way. That is to say, the hemispheric emphasis can give us an overview of a person's life, although it is not very detailed, but it can let us know which aspect of life the disk owner will work on.
What are the hemispheric focuses on?
First of all, because the hemispheric emphasis is simple enough, it is very friendly for beginners in astrology. Most horoscope enthusiasts may use horoscopes to judge a person's personality, but they rarely use astrological knowledge to understand a person's life. And the hemispherical focus offers us this possibility. The hemispheric emphasis method is very simple and can be started quickly, even without rich astrological knowledge, it can be mastered in a very short time.
Second, the hemisphere emphasis has a certain global view, which is a necessary step in the interpretation of the complete astrolabe. When the planetary distribution of the disk owner is clearly concentrated in a certain hemisphere, before we begin to interpret the disk, we should first analyze it according to the principle of hemispheric emphasis before interpreting other information.
