America is Born: Introducing the Regulus USA National Horoscope documents a rigorously rectified birth time for the United States-July 4, 1776, 6:17:37 PM LMT, Philadelphia (Asc 26°54′40" Sagittarius)-derived from 300+ dated events tested with primary directions, solar arcs, and transits to the Ascendant. The resulting figure is presented as the Regulus USA National Horoscope.
Blending traditional technique with a modern research workflow, the book anchors its method in Abū Maʿshar's Distributors & Partners and Directing through the Bounds, then shows how these time-lord frameworks "set the stage" for events. The volume opens with a historical primer on national horoscopes and a re-examination of the well-known Sibly USA national horoscope, then moves to calculation, worked examples, and full Distributor/Partner results. A detailed table of contents guides readers from theory to application.
The centerpiece, Chapter 6, correlates changeovers in the Ascendant's Egyptian bounds with shifts in U.S. social life-an extended test of Directing through the Bounds. Later chapters assemble complete Ascendant directions for the luminaries and planets, so readers can audit the rectification against a transparent event record.
This Second Edition (2021) updates the record to include additional Distributor periods and selected participating directions (e.g., Lunar Nodes #10 "End of Net Neutrality"; Saturn #11 "Recovery of the US Dollar after the GFC"; Mars #11 "End to DACA / National Antifa Rally"). The Preface also reviews a public forecast made during Jupiter/Virgo distribution-that U.S. craft-beer popularity would peak in 2016 and wane after April 28, 2017, the start of Mars/Virgo-with outcome notes and metrics. The edition's stated purpose is straightforward: to document and support the proposed rectification.
Whether you are testing national charts, studying mass movements, or refining your own rectification practice, America is Born offers a replicable method, full computations, and a curated event catalog-positioning this work as both manual and reference for serious mundane researchers. (Note: the Introduction frames the project's scope and explicitly offers no predictions; it focuses on rectification and evidence. )
