The author spent 20 years working on a practical system of relating the heavens and the earth. In this book, he starts with a detailed discussion of the precession and its equinoctial and ecliptic rectifications and then shows how to adjust the midheavens and ascendants of locations. There are coordinates for over 400 cities given as well as a workable table which may be easily tested with world events, past or as they occur. This book provides excellent source material for the serious student and researcher, as well as for the individual wishing to choose the location best suited for themselves or for those wishing to do research on earthquakes, meteorology or world events.
