Introduction to the Basic Idea of Astrogeographia
based on the book :
Astrogeographia - Correspondences between the Stars and
Earthly Locations, A Bible of Astrology and Earth Chakras
by Robert Powell and David Bowden
The basic idea of Astrogeographia is that each place on
Earth corresponds to a unique star in the heavens,
its “star of birth”, which imprinted into that location
at the beginning of the Earth.
For example, the star Alnitak
in the “belt” of the Orion constellation
corresponds to the Great Pyramid
of Giza in Egypt.
Alnitak is seen here lined up
in longitude with the Great Pyramid.
The constellation of Orion was seen as
the god Osiris by the ancient Egyptians.
By fixing the longitude alignment of Alnitak with the Great
Pyramid, as well as the latitude alignment of the Celestial Equator
with Jerusalem, it becomes possible to calculate the “star of birth”
for every place on Earth.
The Celestial Equator (yellow circle)
is the projection of the Earth's Equator
out onto the sphere of the stars.
This is lined up with the latitude circle
through Jerusalem, at 31° 47′ N.
Any initial difficulty in understanding this alignment
can be resolved by realising that the continental plates
containing both Africa and the Middle East
have been moving in general northwards, since the time
of the original imprint of the stars onto the Earth.
When the “star of birth” for each place on Earth has been
calculated according to the above two alignments, a complete
map of the sphere of the stars onto the Earth emerges.
