William Lilly, Christian Astrology, All Three Volumes

Christian Astrology, All Three Volumes is an astrological source represented here through cited material on directions, profections, rectification, application, and horary.

The cited material covers directions, profections, rectification, application, and horary.

Lilly rejects transit-only and profection-only rectification as insufficiently verified in his practice and instead compares multiple dated, already-observed events against the ascendant and midheaven directions in a speculum.

Animodar selects the planet with the most essential dignity at the preceding syzygy degree and transfers that planet's degree to the nearer angle, but Lilly ranks this and the Trutine of Hermes below rectification by dated accidents.

Annual profection advances significators one whole sign per solar year, repeats after twelve years, begins when the Sun returns to its radical degree and minute, and preserves each cusp's natal degree while changing its sign.

This overview is limited to the cited portions. It does not stand in for the complete work, reproduce source passages, or make every documented technique a universal chart interpretation.
