One of the five traditional considerations in delineating a natal chart, known as the five places of life. Pre-Natal Lunations offer vital information and point to predictive time lord techniques that show major aspects of our life, which are not so readily accessible with the naked eye. Since we are all born under and into a particular lunar cycle, the lunation cycle plays an important role in understanding some of the major themes unfolding in our lives.

19:15 Axial Chart Divisions and their use

The chart division along the equinoctial line Aries-Libra divides the hemisphere in north and south, a distinction that is associated with the measurement of power. Each northern sign has a corresponding southern sign that is commands and hence each southern sign has a corresponding northern sign that is must obey. The division by the solstice axis, on the other hand, gives us the straight rising signs and the oblique rising signs which have distinct meanings and uses especially in horary and electional astrology. The antiscia or mirror points also derive from this division and link one straight rising with one oblique rising sign, establishing another chain of command.
