John's progression


Let's plunge into the dynamics of the horoscope events, in other words, how during a favorable period a human being feels the influence of the astrological factors. Can we "bask" in the harmonic rays of the kind aspects? We'll try to set a problem - we are to find as long period as possible at which the astrological factors have a favorable influence on a certain human being. Assume theoretically that this person has been under the favorable influence of the Jupiter for some years or even for his whole lifetime. What impact had it on his prosperity?

So we take interest in the mighty favorable aspect of the Jupiter - trine, 120 degrees. And the influence of this trine in the long term as well. But we know the planets move and the Jupiter goes through one sign of the zodiac for one year. It makes 30 degrees. The current aspect can be 1 degree accurate - trine from 119 up to 121 degrees. That's why such dynamic charts as Transits do not suit us. The direction assumes that the horoscope turns around at a speed of 1 degree for one year of your life. It passes any aspect for two years. So direction is out of question. The progression can approach. This chart's speed is one day for one year. A lifespan makes 70- 100 years. So to say the most important are the first 70 -100 days from birth. That is two-three moths. At the loop-like movement of a planet it can pass through 1 degree much slower than usual. As the Jupiter changes its direction it "marks time" within 1 degree for two months, and more remote planets - the Uranus, the Neptune and the Pluto - even longer. So we are to find such a natal map that would meet these requirements. During the next two or three months the Jupiter should keep to the aspect from 119 up to 121 degrees with another favorable planet.

But we have such a horoscope. The Jupiter is in the trine with the Neptune. At the birth on the 8th July, 1839 the Jupiter coordinates are 10 Libra 18', the Neptune coordinates are 11 Aquarius 56'. Beginning from 15th July - it's the seventh life year. The Jupiter is in the trine with the natal Neptune. On 31th July this aspect disappears. The Jupiter goes further but from 1st August the backward Neptune makes a trine to the natal Neptune. On 22nd October, 106th day, the Neptune turns not losing the trine aspect to the natal Jupiter. It goes straight keeping the aspect up to 5th January. So the aspect remains for half a year.

What an effect had such a long-term favorable influence on a life of our man! Look at it. His name was John. He was born in Reachford, Empire State. Quick-witted and pushing, he lent his neighbor his own $50 on the 7 % annual interest being only 7 years old. From the age of 16 he worked as an accountant assistant. He saved $800 which he invested to trading in agricultural products. The company grew rich during the Civil War in 1861-1865 due to provisioning to the hostile countries. Meanwhile together with his partners he bought a refinery specialized in kerosene production. By the way, the Neptune favors liquids. In some years Rockefeller owned five kerosene plants, in the 70s all the Ohio State refineries belonged to his company renamed Standard Oil. By 1878 90% of this industry in the whole country was under its control. In 1882 Standard Oil became a trust of 37 companies with the total capital making $70 millions. This trust was controlled by nine people with Rockefeller being at the head. In a year tobacco and steel industries practiced this management form as well. In 1913 Rockefeller's fortune was estimated at $1 billion. Charity was the other aspect of Rockefeller's life - the Jupiter favors patronage. The total amount of his donations makes more than $500 millions, $80 from this sum was given to Chicago University. He financed New-York Medical Research Institute. In 1903 he formed Universal Schooling Board, in 1918 - Lora Spellman Fund (in his wife's honor), in 1928 - Rockefeller Fund. John Davidson Rockefeller died in May 1937.

We see that a favorable astrological influence totally agrees with the refining - the Neptune and this man's well-being, fabulous wealth - the Jupiter.
