Building Blocks Overview
It is my belief, and what the entirety of this codex is based upon, is that astrology can be
broken down to base components, similar to how the world around us can be broken down to
atoms and the Periodic Table of Elements.
Astrology Arith(m)etic presents to you the building blocks of astrology: Aspects,
Celestial Bodies and Calculation Points, Fixed Stars, Houses, and Signs.
To get to the arithmetic of it all…
Let ‘a’ represent Celestial Body 1. Let ‘b’ represent Celestial Body 2.
Let 1 represent the sign Celestial Body 1 is in. Let 2 represent the sign of Celestial Body
- You can think of the aspect drawing a connection between the two bodies as the type of
equation, let’s say multiply (*). The houses of the bodies will be represented by an exponent.
That means, with everything just mentioned, your formula for an interpretation is this:
(a+1)^2 *( b+2)^3 = Interpretation
Aspects
Aspects are angular relationships between two or more planets and/or points in a chart,
measured in degrees. They are the vibrational geometry of astrology, influencing how
planetary energies combine, clash, or synergize. Aspects reveal activation points in the
psyche, soul path, and lived experience.
In Astrology Arith(m)etic, aspects are treated as **modular units of archetypal
interaction**.
Astrology Arith(m)etic breaks aspects into seven main categories: major, minor,
harmonic, septile family, novile family, decile family, and custom.
