Advice to Students
To one who is beginning the study of Astrology and is so situ-
ated that they cannot receive oral instructions,
I
will offer the-fd:
ow lilg suggestions Begin at the beginning and go slowly, have
paticncc and lean1 thoroughly as you progress; do not omit any
of the simple and what seems to be quite unimportant reading
matter. 'i'his book has been arranged for the beginner, and you
nlust not forget that you are learning to read from S IGNS only,
ant1 often some slight indication may lead to a vast amount of in-
formation.
I
advise each one to take the lessons in the order
that
I
give them here, commit to memory each one before yon
pass
011
to the next, by missing even a small part of each lesson
you lnay overlook the most important indications of the horoscope.
LESSON ONE
Commit to memory the signs of the Zodiac, their nature, what
planet ruled by, notice the date on which the sun enters each sign
of the Zodiac. Study page I carefully, and read carefully the first
thirteen pages. You should become very familiar with the
signs, and sun's influence in each sign, and should know how to
make the symbols of the signs and lanets before going to lesson
two.
LESSON TWO
Read carefully and become familiar with pages 14, 15, 16
and 17.
LESSON
THREE.
Learn the motion of the planets, their houses and aspects, on
page 18.
Refer to page I when learning aspects.
LESSON FOUR
Learn the exaltation and fall of the planets, or, page 19.
LESSON FIVE.
Learn to exect a horoscope as given on page 20, and commit
to
memory the signification of each house of the horoscope as
given on pages 21-22, and place the planets as given on pages
23-24.
LESSON SIX.
Study carefully pages 25, 26, 27, 28,
29
and
30
LESSON
SEVEN.
Read the influence of each planet in each sign as given on
pages
31
to 40.
LESSON EIGHT.
Take your own horoscope and judge what it shows, according
to the radix on pages 40-41, judgingeach characteristic

Leo:-The Lion.
Le o is a Fixed Fiery Masculine and Barren sign is ruled by the
Sun.
The Sun enters Leo on Ju ly 22d and passes into Virgo on
August
22tl
People born while the Sun is in Leo ar e active minded fearless
good na tu rc ~land generous slow to ang er bu t furious when their
tem per is aroused which may happen but very few times in tlitair
life; they are very determined and persistent seldom become dis-
couraged are natural leaders among their associates will not bo
driven by any one are quit e independant a nd inclined to keep their
affairs to thbmselves particularly those which refer t o finance an d
love they are quite industrious honest and conscientious they
make friends easily on account of bein g very magnetic; Leo peo-
ple will always look well to their own interests and are more fortun-
at e in th e long run than t he average person.
Th e ruling gem s of Leo ar e th e Sapphire and Diamond.
For a business or profession they are well adapted for vocations
ruqu iring sympathetic and magnetic force with Mercury well as-
pected th ey make good qrators elocutionists lecturers and inspira-
tional speakers;
i
Mars is powerful in the figu re they are leaders
in tho Army and may hold
a
high office.
Th e typical Leo person is of good height well built broad shoul-
ders full face and blue eyes to have this description one of tho
fixed signs must ascend otherwise the description may correspond to
the ascending sign.
Leo people harmonize best with those who are born while the Su n
is in Gemini Libra Sagittarius or Aries they do not agree a t all
with those born with t he Su n in a watery or earthy sign.
For a location; Leo people resemble th e lion in their choica of
location they enjoy country life plenty of fresh air an d lot s of
room in the city they ~r iusthave a shady place during the day and
void of shade a t night.
The average length of lif e of
a
Leo person is
58
years as a rule
they have a strong constitution and good vitality bu t often die sud-
denly from over exertion.
Th e follon ing people are good expressions of Leo ; Robert
G.
Ingersoll Xnpoleon Bonaparte S ir Walte r Scott Mary Anderson
John Dryden.
Leo is said to rule France Ita ly Bohemia Sicily Rome Bath
Philadelphia Ancient Chaldea.

IrlPnl ism
The Sun enters Pisces on
Feb rta ry 1 9 an d passes i nto Aries on March 21st.
Those born while the Sun is in Pisces are general ly kind and
loving and inclined to be easy going, will often smile at misfortune,
they are very imaginative, are quite idealistic, will often say
things unthinkingly which they are soon sorry for. They are
qui te studious, methodical, logical and niathematical in deduct ing
their conclusions and are very scientific when once they set out to
b e ,
They desire to penetrate the searet depth of knowledge and
often pursue their research with untiring energy. The y often lack
pride and self esteem and will hesitate about pu tt in g themselves
forward for fear they cannot do justice to their position. They are,
as a whole, qui te timid and very modest, easily influenced to tears,
and can be fascinated with music: and beautiful scenery.
Their mind is very s tr on gp nd when once set upon accomplishing
some object they d o not easily give up, although lack of confidence
often prevents their entering pursuits which the y are adapted for.
people harmonize bes t with those born with the Su n in
w
or Scorpio, and well with Taurus And Capricorn peo-
ple. Th e r u l i w vems of Pisces are the_iimethvstand Jasper.
Fo r Employment or Profession. They succeed best in some
employment which requires intuitive judgment or th e power to
make the best of circumstances.
Councellors at law, office holding
and trades where considerable discretion is required.
Fo r a location.
They enjoy places near the ocean, or large bod-
ies of water, or in rough mountainous country where th e scenery is
grand or inspiring.
The following persons were born while the Su n was in Pisces:
George Washington, Henry
W.
Longfellow, Phil. Sheridan, Jam es
Madison, ~ ~ s ~ ~ h -~ f f g r a a Anictor Hugo,&Iichael elo, Andrew
Jackson, Grover Clevelandp anb Will iam McKinley)kc-
The whole solar system'is moving, bu t n the opposite direction
in which the planets are moving, thus;- ?'he whole solar system has
qni ta recently passed from the sign Pisces int o th e sig n Aquarius,
i t rcquires about
2 230
years to move through each sign, and while
in eaoh sign the people as a whole are influenced a great deal more
by this sign than by any other. While passing through Aquarius
th e house of Uranus, the world will be more reasonable, charatable
and much more progressive, about, 1912 Uranus enters Aquarius,
:
we may expect mighty changes.

Description Produced
by
Each Planet
Cancer ascending with Moon in Aries describes one as slender
fair complexion, light hair; stature varies.
Moon in Taurus-Middle height, stout, dark complexion.
In Gemini-Tall, slender, dark complexion and hair.
In Cancer-Middle height, full form, stout, dark hair.
In Leo-Average height, well built, round lorm, light hair.
In Virgo-Tall, slender , dark hair and complexion.
In Libra-Average height, good proportion, fair complexion.
In Scorpio-Middle height, chubby or plump, dark complexion.
In Sagittarius-Average height, medium built, brown hair.
In Capricorn-Short, slender, dark hair and complexion.
In Aquarius--Tall, medium built, strong, brown hair.
In Pisces-Short, medium built, dark hair.
Gemini or Virgo ascending with Mercury in Aries-Average
height, slender, brown or dark hair.
In Taurus-Short, chubby built, dark hair.
In Gemini-Ta41, good proportions, slender, dark hair.
In Cancer-Short, plump built. dark hair.
In Leo-Tall, good proportions, well built, light hair.
In Virgo-Average height, medium built, dark hair.
In Libra-Middle height, evenly built, dark or brown hair.
In Scorpio-Short, thick set, dark hair.
In Sagittarius-Tall, good proportions, slender, brown hair.
In Capricorn-hfiddle height, slender, dark hair.
In Aquarius-Average height, middle weight, brown hair.
In Pisces-Medium height, chubby built, dark hair.
Pl ro ets in Pisces are variable, often giving good height, slender
dark hair.
As can be seen from the descriptions of the Moon and Mercury,
in the twelve signs, each description is nearly the same as the sign
itself gives. Therefore, in giving the description of the ascending
sign, make a judicious mixture of tha t sign in which the ruling
planet is.
The description is modified again by any planet which may be
within eight degrees of the cusp of the ascendant; and the modifi-
cation will be according to the description of the sign which the
planet rules.

Exaltation and Fall of the Planets
Mercury rules Gemini and Virgo; it is exalted in Virgo, has its
fall in Pisces and in detriment in Sagittarius.
Venus rules Taurus and Libra; is exalted in Pisces, in her fa11
in Virgo and in detriment in Aries and Scorpio.
aurus and Libra.
.~lted in Cancer, has his fall in
lted
i n
Libra, has his fall in Aries
Taurus and in d
detriment and very weak when retrograde.
A
pIanet issaid to be strong or to have essential dignity when
in it s own triplicity.
Thus: Mars and Jupi ter are fi ry planets;
Aries, Leo and Sagittarius are fiery signs; therefore Mars, Jup iter
and the Sun have more power in these signs than in others. Sat-
urn is Earthy and is strong in Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn.
A planet has strong s i g w t i o n and exerts a more marked in-
fluence when located in the cardinal signs of the figure, as these
signs form the principal angles of the horoscope.
The strength is considerably mitigated when located in common
signs-Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces-as when placed in
such signs their action in bringing about events
i s
sluggish and at
times fails entirely, while
if
located in Cardinal signs-Aries,
Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn they bring about a more prompt and
decided result, while if located in Fixed signs--Taurus, Leo, Scor-
pio and Aquarius-their influence is much more slow in culmina-
ti ng but more lasting when completed.
Planets located in the northern signs-from Aries to Libra-ex-
ert a stronger influence in bringing about events then when located
in the other portion of the Zodiac, for the reason that when in
nortilern signs they aro in north declination, therefore exert a more
direct influence upon the northern hemisphere; while in southern
signs their declination is south and their influence exerted more
directly upon the southern hemisphere.
