"Contention" is the opposite of Hayyiz, and ibn Ezra mentions it in the Beginnings of Wisdom. It is a planet out of halb, its sect's hemisphere, and also in a sign contrary to its gender preference: a diurnal planet above the horizon in a female sign by night, or below the horizon by day; ...

hi astrojin i've only just begun looking into omar, and more for the stuff on directions, to be honest. i haven't begun calculating or delineating the compound almutems, but i am intrigued. i do Dorotheus-Aboaly-Abu Mashar type astrology and the compound almutem as some kind of overall significator ...

hi astrojin, hi deb This is fantastic astrojin! Thank you very much, it will make my testing of Dorothean primaries so much easier! What I would find most useful are values for OA for each whole degree of longitude from 01 to 360, for each degree of latitude from 30N to 60N. This would leave ony ver...

Hi astrojin In specific reply to your points: 1. I can see your logic in looking at the dispositor here, but as I've not used this technique I can't comment.

But what both astrojin and draco say is orthodox in theory, but...

Mercury, Gender and Sect Hello all, I'd like to hear your opinions. I have been judging Mercury's gender by its solar condition, that is, masculine if oriental and feminine if occidental.
