Ancient Hellenistic Astrology
Hellenistic Astrology, a recently rediscovered form of astrology from the first to seventh century a.d., uses your specific birth time and location to provide detailed information regarding your life’s path, focus, joys and difficulties. Like some modern forms of astrology, Ancient traditions emphasize the sun, moon, and rising sign of the specific time of birth. However, Hellenistic Astrology also, importantly, considers the “sect” of the chart: being a Day birth or a Night birth, which brings a great amount of personalized meanings into the chart and the interpretation.

The most commonly used house system of Hellenistic Astrology is Whole Sign Houses, in which the rising sign becomes the first house- regardless of degree- and the houses proceed in Zodiacal order. While this house system sounds overly simplistic (and it is!), it aids in planetary interpretations in myriad ways.
-
In Hellenistic traditions, Sect- Day or Night- is the first and for-most interpretive factor in a birth chart. the most benefic, or helpful, planets as well as the most malefic, or harmful/difficult planets in one’s chart depend on whether one was born during the day— when the sun rules, or at night—under the light of the moon.

What really sets Ancient Astrology apart from the rest is the exactitude of their timing techniques. Also known as Time Lord systems, these can provide insight for certain years, months or days in your life— though they can actually give insight down to the minute!
