(Instead of rotating the chart, it is equally practicable to locate the Point of the Father, for
example, by computing the arc from Saturn to the Sun, and if this is a 40° separation, say
"The Sun is in a Second House position to Saturn, hence the Point of the Father is in the
Second House.")


If you have an hour of birth from which to compute a Rising degree, mark the cusps on the
circumference of the Figure and consider these additional Points:


With the Lord of the Second House as an Ascendant, consider the altered House-position of
the cusps of the Second House. This is the Point of Goods.


With the Lord of the Ninth House as an Ascendant, consider the altered House-position of the
cusp of the Ninth House. This is the Point of Travel by Land.


With the Lord of the Twelfth House as an Ascendant, consider the altered House-position of
the cusp of the Twelfth House. This is the Point of Private Enemies.


With the Moon as an Ascendant, the cusp of the Eighth House becomes the Point of Death:
the point where experience must crystallize into either regeneration or disintegration.


If the birth was at night, with the Sun below the Horizon, in Houses I to VII, put Jupiter on
the Ascendant, and consider the House-position of Saturn as the Point of Brethren.
