The Hermetic system of global astrology is a set of principles and procedures that are applied when assessing mundane astrology charts: The Aquarian Age chart, a nation’s chart when its birth data is reliable, in-sky aspect charts, and major cycle charts.
The Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto cycle charts are classified as major.
They have a time and date of birth and are constructed for a country’s administrative capital. Each country has a set of cycle charts.
The start of a new major cycle
When a major planet – Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune or Pluto – moves from south to north declination there’s a change in its polarity that marks itself in the astral substance that envelops the world.
It’s a significant astrological event that signals the start of its new cycle.
During this change period mundane events ruled by the planet tend to come into considerable prominence. They are a sign of things to come.
The timeframe, during which events signified by the new cycle can occur, is when the planet that’s changing polarity is within 1º before and 1º after the celestial equator.
The influence is more pronounced while it is close to the exact line between south and north declination; but due to the physical environment’s resistance to events those signified by the new cycle may require accumulated planetary pressure to manifest, so it may develop sometime before, or somewhat after, the exact moment of change in declination.
In a specified country’s chart, the house position of the planet that’s changing polarity indicates the starting point from which emanates other important events that are inclined to transpire during the life of the cycle.
In each instance events occur as the cycle chart’s ruling planet progresses and forms aspects with the other planets, ascendant and Midheaven, in the chart.
