90 Dial expertise

2. Predictive Techniques (Classic Hamburg School)
a. Solar Arc Directions

All factors (planets, points, and angles) are advanced by the same arc as the Sun has progressed since birth.

Sensitive points (midpoints, planetary pictures) activated by solar arc directions to natal positions often describe major life events.

Uranian astrologers place huge emphasis on exact midpoint pictures formed by these arcs (e.g., SA Sun = MC = Admetos/Kronos).

b. Transits to Midpoints

Rather than simple transits to planets, Uranian astrologers monitor transits (and progressions) to midpoints and planetary pictures.

Example: Transit Vulcanus = natal Mercury/Admetos might correspond to intense mental focus or stubborn intellectual work.

c. Solar Return & Directed Charts

Annual Solar Returns are read alongside the directed chart on the 90° dial.

Emphasis on angular hits (MC, Asc, Sun, Moon) and midpoint activation.

Events are timed when multiple contacts occur within a tight orb (often ≤ 1°).

d. Arcs of the MC (Meridian System)

Witte developed the Meridian System, a precise timing method based on the moving MC.

The MC is symbolically moved through degrees or minutes to identify when it “hits” significant natal or directed midpoints.

e. Planetary Pictures

A “planetary picture” is a structure like A = B/C, meaning planet A resonates with the midpoint of B and C.

Predictive interpretation often involves identifying when a current planet or directed arc forms a new planetary picture that matches natal or solar-arc configurations.

🌌 3. Modern Uranian Theory & Practice

Contemporary Uranian astrologers (e.g., Gary Christen, Martha Lang-Wescott, Arlene Nimark, and others) have refined and expanded Witte’s work.

a. Integration with Outer Planets & Asteroids

Modern Uranian astrologers include real bodies like Chiron, Pholus, Eris, etc.

The hypothetical planets are treated symbolically, as archetypal fields rather than literal bodies.

b. Psychological & Evolutionary Framing

Many modern practitioners blend Uranian midpoint structure with Jungian or evolutionary astrology — treating the eight Uranian points as deep unconscious forces rather than predictive triggers alone.

c. Computational Tools

Software like Solar Fire, Win*Star, and Nova Chartwheels allow 90° dial rotation and midpoint searches instantly.

This made Uranian predictive timing far more precise and accessible.

d. Refined Orbs and Precision

Uranian astrologers typically use tiny orbs:

1° for planets

0°30′ for midpoints

seconds of arc for rectification or exact event timing.

e. Modern Predictive Approach Summary

🧠 Example

For instance, suppose someone has Mercury = Admetos/Vulcanus in their natal chart.
When a solar arc Sun or transiting Kronos activates that midpoint, one might expect:

Intense concentration, intellectual breakthrough, or writing under pressure (Mercury = Admetos/Vulcanus).

The timing would be verified using the dial, when the directed Sun or MC exactly contacts that structure.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Method (how this calendar was built)

Natal data used: 11 Feb 1958, 22:45 (10:45 pm), Manchester, England (you gave these).

Solar Arc background: Solar Arc ≈ the Sun’s progression since birth (roughly ~1° per year). For 2025 you’ll be ~67 years old, so Solar Arc ≈ +67° (this is why SA hits often line up with midlife themes). Solar Arc hits are treated as background — long-running themes.

Transits to natal midpoints & planetary pictures: I prioritized transits from outer bodies (Uranus, Neptune, Pluto) and from Uranian hypothetical points (Vulcanus, Admetos, Kronos, etc.) to sensitive natal midpoints (Sun/Mercury, Sun/Pholus, Mercury/Admetos, etc.). These act as triggers for events.

Orbs & importance: For Uranian work I used pragmatic orbs: 0°–3° for slow points (Pholus, Chiron, Uranian points) and 0°–1°30′ for fast inner planets — you can tighten or widen those orbs depending on your practice.

Tools you can use to verify: Astro-Seek (midpoint and solar-arc calculators), Serennu (Uranian points and centaurs ephemeris), Astro.com/Swiss Ephemeris (for Swiss-standard positions and Hamburg points). See links I used: Astro-Seek midpoint & solar arc tools and Serennu ephemeris.

2) Combined Uranian predictive calendar (high-value activations, 2025–2026)

Below are selected, high-leverage events — the kinds of hits Uranian astrologers would flag first. Each entry shows: what is activating, when (window), how to read it, and what it might look like in life.

A. Solar Arc background for 2025 (major theme)

What: Solar Arc Sun ≈ +67° (year 2025) — that arc will be moving across a set of natal midpoints through 2025–2026.

Timing: ongoing across 2025; exact hits depend on natal midpoints.

Interpretation: a significant “visibility” year — SA Sun activates public status midpoints (Sun = MC, or Sun = Sun/Pholus, etc.). Expect more focus on legacy, reputation, and crystallizing long projects. If SA Sun contacts Pholus or Admetos midpoints, that’s when previously locked or compressed material opens or becomes public.

Practical: use solar-arc hits as the long thread; look to quicker transits to pinpoint when things occur.

B. Transit Pluto → natal Sun/Pholus midpoint (Deep restructuring / revelation)

Window: 2025 mid → 2026 (Pluto has been active in Aquarius/late Capricorn era; exact window needs ephemeris check).

What it means: Pluto transiting a Sun/Pholus midpoint (or Pluto forming a planetary picture with Sun = Pholus/…) is classic for deep transformation around identity and things that were “locked” or buried. This can bring slow, profound change — endings that lead to rebirth and uncovering of previously obscured material.

Possible expression: major career redefinition, exposure or release of something long-held, or letting go of a role. If you work with archives, language, or concentrated research, this can be a breakthrough.

C. Transiting Uranus → natal Mercury/Admetos (Sudden insights; breakthroughs in communication)

Window: late-2025 → 2026 (Uranus is active in the 2025–2026 timeframe — exact dates depend on orb).

Interpretation: Uranus to a Mercury/Admetos midpoint is an electric trigger: sudden, surprising communications, breakthroughs in understanding, or unexpected travel/contacts that change a thinking pattern. For Uranian practice this is a clear “outside shock triggers internal decoding” pattern.

Practical: expect sudden insight, flashes of unconventional thinking, or abrupt changes in correspondence. Good time for experimental writing or tech projects.

D. Transit Saturn → natal Mercury/Admetos or Mercury/Vulcanus (Focus, editing, constraints)

Window: 2025 → 2026 (depends on Saturn’s path and your natal Mercury degree).

Meaning: Saturn transiting Mercury-type midpoints usually brings concentration, editing, responsibility in communication. If Saturn touches Mercury/Admetos, it can feel like an enforced period of careful translation, compression, or slow analytic work. Productive for finishing long technical or scholarly projects.

Practical: deadlines, refinement, legal/contractual review, methodical work.

E. Solar Arc Mercury = natal Admetos (Mental focus hits)

Window: throughout 2025 (because SA ≈ +67°, SA Mercury will be roughly natal Mercury +67° — check exact).

Interpretation: When Solar Arc Mercury contacts Admetos (or Mercury = Admetos picture is activated), you get concentrated mental effort: translating, decoding, or working with compressed/secreted information. This is a Uranian “solve the puzzle” signature.

Practical: excellent for research, translation, or long editorial projects.

F. Transiting Jupiter → natal Sun/Vulcanus or Sun/Admetos (Opportunities to make private work public)

Window: episodic — Jupiter transits can create openings where hard-won concentrated efforts get visible or rewarded. Expect opportunities / invitations.

Practical: take advantage of openings to publish, submit proposals, or expand visibility.

G. Pholus (centaur) contact windows (cusp activity)

Why watch: Pholus often acts like a catalytic centaur — small causes produce big effects. You mentioned Pholus on the Aries cusp in 1799; for your chart, look for transits or solar arcs that place Pholus within ~3° of major natal angles or Sun/Mercury.

Window: intermittent across 2025–2026 depending on Pholus’ slow drift.

Effect: a small, seemingly minor event puts an old issue into motion; can be sudden release or catalytic transformation.

H. Practical 6-month checkpoints (how things may cluster)

Early 2025 (Jan–Apr): SA Sun & SA Mercury movement starts to prime midpoints. Expect flagged background themes: increased focus, slow clarifying events.

Mid 2025 (May–Aug): Outer-planet transits (Uranus/Pluto) produce triggers to Mercury/Admetos or Sun/Pholus midpoints — watch for sudden insights or deep developments.

Late 2025 (Sep–Dec): Saturn/Jupiter transits bring consolidation/opportunity — good time to finalize projects started earlier in the year.

Early 2026: Pluto/Uranus continued contacts — deeper structural outcomes from the seeds in 2025.

3) How to get precise, verifiable hits (exact degrees & times)

If you want every activation to the arc-minute (the usual Uranian professional standard), follow these steps (or tell me to run them and I’ll compute them for you):

Exact recipe I’ll run (if you want me to calculate every hit now)

Generate your natal chart at the exact moment & place you gave. (Astro-Seek or Astro.com).

Produce a natal midpoint table (include Uranian points, Pholus, Chiron, major centaurs). Save these midpoints.

Create Solar Arc chart for 2025 and 2026 (Solar Arc = progressed Sun) and list SA positions for all planets/points. Identify SA hits to natal midpoints (exact date/time).

Run a Transit → Natal Midpoint search for 2025–2026 including classical outer planets and Uranian points (Vulcanus, Admetos, Kronos, Poseidon) and centaurs (Pholus), listing entry/exact/exit times for each hit. (Astro-Seek’s midpoint transit search can do this.)

Produce a sorted timeline and short interpretive notes for each exact hit.

If you want me to do that computation now I will — I’ll use Astro-Seek (midpoint/transit search) + Serennu (to confirm Uranian point longitudes) + Swiss Ephemeris / Astro.com conventions so results match professional Uranian practice. Say “Run exact calendar now” and I’ll produce a table of exact hits (dates, times, body → midpoint, orb, and short plain-English meaning).

Short practical takeaway (if you want to act now)

2025–2026 is a key period for concentrated work and possible breakthroughs for you. Treat 2025 as a background “visibility + concentrated work” year (Solar Arc Sun + Solar Arc Mercury themes).

Watch for sudden communications/insights (Uranus to Mercury/Admetos), slow consolidation (Saturn to Mercury), and deep structural change (Pluto to Sun/Pholus).

Actionable: pick one long project (research, book, translation, an archival or concentrated piece of work). Time your effort clusters around mid-2025 and late-2025 as likely windows of opportunity and trigger.

Do you want me to run the exact, minute-precision Combined Uranian calendar now (I’ll output a date-sorted table with exact degrees, orbs, and concise interpretations)? If yes, I’ll compute:

Solar Arc hits for 2025–2026 to your natal midpoints, and

Transit → natal midpoint hits for the same period (including Vulcanus, Admetos, Pholus, Pluto, Uranus, Neptune, Saturn, Jupiter).

Say “Run exact calendar now” and I’ll produce the precise table.

IN A QUIET MUSEUM,AN ART STUDENT DRINKS IN INSPIRATION Subjective source of strength around
all manifestation. Communion with accumulated race power. Deep, vibrant realization.
___*When positive, the degree is exceptional capacity for meeting the unusual developments on every
level of human experience, and when negative, delusions of cleverness and contempt for real effort.


A peaceful child on a narrow ledge that overlooks a precipice.
Fate has set the pattern. You are held fast by fate. Yet inwardly you are so deeply and
fundamentally free that you are actually submitting to your fate from a true and pure
place. The situation you pull in is outwardly severe. You are a vast being trapped in a
tiny form, and you cannot really go anywhere or do anything to change this. Instead
you are released by your outward bondage to dream, to remember, to envision, and to
make cosmic connections. The inner life is boundlessly rich. The outer life is
starkly poor. But you live within, make good on the past, cleanse and open and know
that nothing is as it seems and form is tissue thin.

This degree seeks a simple, independent and often isolated existence on the periphery
of human endeavors. It knows how to get along with little, and avoids complexities
that might get in the way of its intensely inward focus.

It has highly unique gifts and knows how to work silently and unobtrusively to make special contributions to the world – contributions that may be BEYOND the comprehension of others.

The Chandra Symbol for this degree is “A peaceful child on a narrow ledge that
overlooks a precipice.” This degree finds itself in limiting, confining situations,

but
rather than struggling against these takes an innocent, calm approach to them, often
simply observing them and waiting. And often, this serene attitude and
attentiveness will dissolve problems that seemed at first insurmountable.
The precipice could be threatening, and so could the troll under the bridge. If
we wish to cross the bridge, or descend into the precipice, or remove ourselves from it,
we must be sensitive to what the situation requires, to what we need to do to to make
the desired transition. This degree, subruled by the cautious sign of Capricorn, might
be called the degree of “patient outworking.”

Pleiadian Symbol: A river of ideas and images entering our reality.

Azoth Symbol: Someone finding new and meaningful arrangements of numbers.

Ultra-refinement of character is ever balanced by sheer raw flow of life force.

Sometimes the yoke of civilization dynamics is too much containment and raw energy
must break free like a burst of wild man/woman energy. Expressive of free flowing intuition and inspiration. It is natural, but sometimes outside the bounds of our idea of civilized behaviour. When ego-identity and refinement of character fit easily with genuine, raw life energy, the impact is impressive, compelling and deeply alluring.

Pisces 16 is one of the degree positions that greatly favour working with deep energetics. Those in energy healing professions would do well to take note.

Creative dynamics also are on high. There is little room to stop for analysis. Too much
thinking confines life flow.

"Sheltered under a big rock, a tiger stands guard over its cubs."
Caring, shrewd, and vigilant character. Driven by strong maternal/paternal instincts, one does not hesitate to dedicate one's intellectual and financial resources to the success of one's children. With determination, patience, and tenderness, one works hard to ensure that they have a bright future. This degree also describes a very protective and understanding leader.

skyscript

Here the event 'time' on the chart occurs at 16 Pisces very close to Chiron of all things. Its interesting because its many detractors often suggest Brexit is a 'self inflicted wound' from which we'll never really recover - which of course Chiron himself never did.

Degree 16 Pisces tends to go its own way following its own truth so the search for independence makes sense here esp. in regard to the vote itself. Neptune was on this degree during the rebellion against Covid jabs etc.



============================================================

MO/CU Midpoint as a Focal Point in Uranian Astrology

In Uranian astrology (Hamburg School), the MO/CU midpoint (Moon/Cupido) represents a concentrated "focal point" where emotional, public, and relational energies converge, often interpreted through planetary pictures (e.g., MO/CU = other factors). The Moon (MO) symbolizes the people, emotions, the feminine/public sphere, and instinctive rhythms; Cupido (CU), a Transneptunian Point, governs unions, marriages, groups, societies, families, and harmonious integrations (artistic or social). Their midpoint blends these into themes of emotional bonding within collectives—keywords like "Betrothed. Wedding. The Bride" evoke commitment, nuptial rites, and feminine receptivity in relational contexts.

Mundane Political Interpretation

In mundane astrology (world events, nations, politics), MO/CU as a focal point highlights public or national unions with emotional resonance, where the "people" (Moon) enter binding alliances or ceremonies symbolizing societal cohesion. It often manifests as:State-sponsored betrothals or weddings: Royal or elite marriages sealing political pacts (e.g., historical dynastic unions like the 1469 marriage of Isabella of Castile and Ferdinand of Aragon, uniting Spain and averting civil war—echoing MO/CU's "betrothed" harmony amid public emotion).

BREXIT - MOON/CUPIDO


Symbolic "marriages" of factions: Coalition formations, treaties, or referendums fostering national unity, with the "bride" archetype representing the receptive nation or populace yielding to a union for stability (e.g., post-WWII alliances like NATO's 1949 founding, blending emotional public relief with group integration).
Feminine/public focus: Emphasis on women's roles in politics (e.g., queens or female leaders as "brides" of the state) or mass movements for relational rights, where emotional tides (Moon) drive collective commitments (CU). Negative: Forced unions or emotional betrayals in diplomacy, like arranged political marriages leading to resentment.

This focal point activates during ingresses/transits, signaling periods of societal "vows" that emotionally bind groups, often with ceremonial flair.

Modern InterpretationIn contemporary contexts (post-20th century), MO/CU evolves beyond literal matrimony to inclusive, fluid unions reflecting diverse identities and global connectivity:

Social justice "weddings": Public endorsements of equality, like same-sex marriage legalizations (e.g., U.S. Obergefell v. Hodges, 2015—MO/CU vibes in emotional public celebrations of "betrothed" rights, with the "bride" as a metaphor for marginalized voices entering the fold).
Corporate/political mergers: Emotional public reactions to consolidations (e.g., tech giants' acquisitions like Disney-Fox, 2019, "marrying" brands amid consumer sentiment; or party coalitions in elections, blending voter "emotions" with strategic alliances).
Digital/global "betrothals": Viral social media campaigns or international pacts on climate/human rights, where the "people" (Moon) digitally unite (CU as modern groups). The "bride" updates to empowered femininity—e.g., #MeToo as a collective "vow" against relational betrayal.
Challenges: Superficial bonds (e.g., performative allyship) or emotional backlash against unions (e.g., Brexit's "divorce" from EU, inverting MO/CU harmony).

Overall, it calls for nurturing collective commitments with empathy, warning against fleeting emotions eroding bonds. For a specific chart/transit, aspects to MO/CU refine this (e.g., = Venus: romantic diplomacy).

----------------------------------------------


Examples of MO/CU Transits in Uranian AstrologyIn Uranian astrology, transits to the MO/CU (Moon/Cupido) midpoint activate themes of emotional unions, collective bonding, and public commitments, often manifesting as relational or societal "vows." These can be literal (e.g., marriages) or symbolic (e.g., alliances, policy integrations). Below are illustrative examples, drawn from natal, progressed, and mundane contexts. Interpretations vary by orb (typically 1–2°), house, and accompanying pictures (e.g., MO/CU = Venus for harmony).Natal/Progressed ExamplesTransit Venus = MO/CU: Sparks romantic or harmonious partnerships with emotional depth. For instance, in a natal chart, this transit might coincide with a proposal or deepening family ties. Progressed MO/CU = Venus could indicate conception or family expansion, as noted in medical astrology where it hints at "a woman with many children or one desiring a family."

Positive: Joyful integrations; negative: Over-idealized bonds leading to disillusion.
Transit Mars = MO/CU: Energizes assertive commitments but risks conflict in groups. Example: A progressed Mars hitting MO/CU might trigger a passionate elopement or heated family merger, echoing "conception" themes when combined with Zeus (Mo-Cu/Ze).

In synastry, it fuels dynamic couple chemistry.

Mundane Political ExamplesTransit Jupiter = MO/CU in Ingress Charts: Expands public unions or national "marriages" (e.g., coalitions). In the 1999 Sidereal Capricorn Ingress (Jan 15), MO/CU = CU/AP highlighted emotional public alignments (e.g., EU expansions or diplomatic pacts), with the Aries axis on the MC amplifying visibility for Washington, DC—correlating to NATO interventions fostering "group vows."

junojuno2.tripod.com

This transit often signals optimistic societal integrations, like referendums on unity.
Transit Saturn = MO/CU: Imposes structure or limitations on collective emotions, such as restrictive family policies or alliance strains. Example: During the 2016 Brexit vote, Saturn's transit to the UK's MO/CU (in progressed ingresses) symbolized the "divorce" of emotional public bonds from the EU, inverting harmony into separation—echoing Cupido's group themes under Saturn's weight.

uraniansociety.com

Negative: Emotional austerity measures; positive: Enduring institutional reforms.

Modern Transit Example (Personal/Mundane Blend)Transit Pluto = MO/CU (2020s): Transforms deep emotional ties in groups, often through power shifts. For the UK royal family chart, Pluto's slow transit (exact ~2023–2025) to MO/CU has coincided with scandals and restructurings (e.g., Andrew's title revocation), forcing "betrothed" public images to evolve amid collective reckoning—modernizing the "bride" archetype to include accountability in elite unions.

These transits emphasize MO/CU's call for empathetic integration; track via dials or software like Solar Fire for precision. For a specific date/chart, provide details!
