In 1971, the Koch method of celestial partitioning, developed by Walter Koch (1895–1970), was introduced to the astrological community under the same pretext as that of Wendel Polich: “the birthplace method” (Koch, 1971). Because it was cloaked in twentieth-century authority,…
Celestial partitioning frameworks are not abstract mathematical exercises; they purport to calculate with precision the physical position of empty zodiacal/ecliptic coordinates and celestial bodies relative to the local horizon. With the advent of modern astronomical engines, we are no longer…
This summer marks 50 years since Wendel Polich formally presented his method of celestial partitioning. For decades, practitioners of the Polich-Page (“Topocentric”) system have operated under the illusion that they are utilising a hyper-precise, physically grounded framework of spatial coordinates.…
One Cannot Divide What One Cannot Measure Every Ascendant and Midheaven is, intrinsically, a coordinate derived by the corresponding proportion of its own oblique ascension; its emergence over the horizon or culmination upon the meridian serves exclusively as the visual…
When our work on celestial partitioning is compared to reading IMMANUEL KANT, it is a high compliment—it requires resolving a series of cognitive dissonances in order to enable reality to present itself to us as it is, rather than as…
The Archaeological Fallacy, or Antiquity’s Handicap An ingenuous bias prevails amongst “traditionalist” practitioners: the conflation of archaeological frequency with epistemological truth. Because the majority of extant ancient charts depict symbolic, sign-based boundaries—frequently demarcating solely the Ascendant (Asc) and Midheaven (MC)—many…
