Astrocartography not only maps planetary lines across the globe but also considers precise coordinates and local space extensions, helping you understand the influence of planets in specific areas.
1. Astrological Coordinates
Astrological coordinates are the exact longitudinal and latitudinal positions where a planet’s energy is aligned with the angles (ASC, DSC, MC, IC) at your birth. These coordinates determine the placement of planetary lines on the map.
- Example: A Venus line might run through Paris because that city aligns with Venus on your Midheaven or Ascendant at birth.
- Each coordinate corresponds to a specific planet-angle relationship, showing where planetary energy is strongest.
2. Local Space Astrology (Local Horizons)
Local Space Astrology projects your natal chart around your current or chosen location, creating a “local horizon” map. This shows how planetary energies extend in different directions from a point.
- Helps identify the directions in which certain energies are most potent.
- Example: Standing in your city, a Jupiter line pointing north may indicate career opportunities in that direction.
3. Combining Astrocartography and Local Space
While astrocartography shows where planetary lines fall worldwide, Local Space Astrology tells you which direction to move or travel locally to harness planetary energy.
- This combination allows a detailed understanding of both global and local influences.
- You can plan travel, relocation, or career moves with more precision.
4. Practical Use
- Identifying places that amplify personal growth or creativity.
- Avoiding areas with challenging planetary influences.
- Using planetary directions to enhance relationships, career, or emotional well-being.
By integrating coordinates and local space extensions, astrocartography becomes a precise tool for understanding not just where but how planetary energies manifest in both global and local contexts.
