Astrocartography

[Vaughn Paul]

Hi Punarvasu,
I consider the relocation chart like a divisional chart that has some power to modify the natal chart. I don't give it a great deal of weight, but I often do look at it especially if a client asks for it. It's not mentioned in the classic texts and so it's controversial whether it really has any effect. My experience says that it does to some extent. India is not a big country and people often stayed put so it's never been very relevant for Indians until the last few decades. I think it's worth researching. Vaughn Paul

I've been reading a bit on Astrocartography.

Definition according to Wikipedia:
Astrocartography is a locational astrology system that focuses on elements of the natal chart, by identifying these factors on a world "Astro*Carto*Graphy Map." Lewis' Astro*Carto*Graphy maps show all locations on the earth where planets were "angular" (rising, setting, on the zenith or nadir) at the moment of an event like a person's birth. An "angular" planet is one that is conjunct one of these four angles (Ascendant, Descendant, MC or Immum_Coeli). These locations are displayed in the form of lines on the Astro*Carto*Graphy world map.

Been using the Kepler 7 software and fortunately my brother gets prominent places for Work(Hong Kong), Studying(London) whereas I get middle of nowhere places It does hold true for him as he would visit HK monthly for work, has his strongest business contact network there. And he is currently applying to study in London.

So in essence ACG shows a geographic location where a certain aspect of your life could provide you with an extra force(or not).
