Astro-Cards System

 

[AC: 0] Readings Pamphlet $2.00

ac0 thumbnailBrief keyword sections on the Suits, Numbers, Planets, Zodiac and other Symbols used in the System. Includes the 52-day Cycles of Periodicity Table, Day Cards Calendar, Pure Spread, Life Spread and a list of source material of other published books about the System.

[AC: 1] Mini-Spreads Set (5" x 7" x 1") ***DUE SOON***

ac1 thumbnailAll the charts and tables necessary to work the System; on durable laminated card stock, folded accordion style (Note: this lamination is a tedious job done completely by hand!) This is being done in a new style that will be available soon.

[AC: 3PE/AC: 3CD] Cards & Letters/Trees & Tribes $6.00/$7.00

ac3 thumbnail***Digital Only*** A study relating the symbolism encoded within our regular playing cards to the hidden meanings of the letters of the Ancient Celtic Alphabet. This study stems from the research of Robert Graves' "The White Goddess." This booklet relates the Cards to Celtic letters, the Song of Amergin, Sacred Tree, Ancient Calendar, the 13 Tribes of Israel and their metals and jewels.

[AC:4] The Calendar & Its Cycles ***DUE SOON***

[AC:5] The Day & Its Divisions $30.00

ac5 thumbnailThis is the first book of a 3-Part Series on Advanced Magian Cardology Studies. The Day & Its Divisions has three copyright free worksheets in the back for Time Cards Natal, Time Cards Relocation Worksheet by Method 1, and Time Cards Relocation Worksheet by Method 2. Additionally, it also includes a separate Work Book of 24 pages which contains just the Tables required and calculation instructions for easy reference and speedy figuring.
The first section introduces the Hour and Minute Cards, as used in the past, and presented in pre-prepared Tables which reduces the need to use a lot of math. With this we now have the Day-Card from the Calendar, plus the Long-term-continuity Hour Card and the Snap-decision-making Minute Card, which, when all three are combined, produce a brand-new Personal I.D. Card - a special, one of a kind, virtually unique symbol that no other with your birth date will have. This is especially important with the birth of twins, triplets or more, being born in sequence, but all with the same Day-Card, but different Time Cards to help explain their differences. Additionally, the book explains the various methods of Re-Location and then how this works with the Cards. Why does one feel better in one location than in another? The Hour, Minute and resulting I.D. Cards show this quite clearly.
To help the student with this new material, this book provides a final section to the Text with interpretive delineations for the Hour, Minute and I.D. Cards for all 52 Card Symbols. The final part of the book contains Three Appendices: One on Richmond's Normal Spreads and their possible Hour connections; another on Astro-Cartography and how the Cards Chart is inserted on to the Map, and the final one on Locations and their Birth Cards, for examples of Synastry and Composite Re-Location work.

[AC:8PE / AC:8CD] The "Key" Spread $7.00/$8.00

ac8 thumbnail***Digital Only*** A study examining the internal patterns and functions of the primal spread utilized in the Astro-Cards System, known as the "Pure Spread". It is from this table that all the mechanics, operating procedures and rules of this System are derived. This work covers the "Crown Line" problem and a logical solution that solves some of the contradictions included in the 19th Century original, that others have been propagating all through the 20th Century. Plus, it introduces the numerical patterns of the Vertical and Diagonal Lines and the nature of their relationships, along with the newly discovered Rectangular Links. Also included are some hypothetical research studies regarding other reading patterns, with the author's final conclusions. In closing, there is a final section on a proposed "Revised Pure Spread" that moves these studies into a new and different direction for some future time.

[AC: 9] Aspects $6.00

ac9 thumbnailStudy of the internal code/patterns represented by the astrological aspects, in multiples of equal 30 degree divisions; irregular divisions of the circle. Includes a delineational reading for each card, related to the rulerships and aspect patterns that make this a must have for every Card System student and reader.

[AC: 10PE/CD] Universal Spread $8.00/$9.00

ac10 thumbnail***Digital Only*** This study examines one particular table that Richmond published in his Mystic Test Book (1893), called the "ruling cards of time" chart. It is this table and a special numerical formula that gives us our Birth or Day-Cards. In this work, it is first explained about the Astral Power Numbers formula and its operation, plus there are some corrections to Richmond's numbers from the information given in the Mystic Thesaurus (1899), by Willis F. Whitehead (AR 7). In the second part of this study, is an introduction to Richmond's planetary / number correspondences and how they can be inserted into the original table and the possible ways such information can be interpreted. Next, examined are the inferences that can be gleaned from the aforementioned process and its cosmological implications, utilizing a variety of ancient and modern views on this subject-Creation Myths, "Big Bang" Theories, DNA, to name a few, plus ideas for further avenues of research.

[AC: 12PE/CD] Planetary Rulers $9.00/$10.00

ac12 thumbnail***Digital Only*** This recently expanded work (originally 40 pages), is now 98 pages with many added tables to help the student/practioner. The first part of this work is a study on the sub-division of Sun-Signs into 3 - 10° segments, called Decanates, each with its own Planetary Ruler. For these, the author gives 2 sets of 12 Monthly Tables, with their date-spans and Rulers. One set covers the Traditional data, and the other gives the data used in the Astro-Cards System. The second part of this work is a study on 4 specific cards in our charts that give us a picture of our strengths and weaknesses. These 4 astrological points are known collectively as the Dignities and Debilities, and are made up of 2 sets of pairs. The first pair is the Planetary Ruler and its opposite, the Planetary Detriment; the second part, the Planetary Exaltation and its opposite, the Planetary Fall. Working from one's Sun-Card, its Sun-Sign and the tables the author has given, you can find the 4 specific Cards in your Chart that represent these important personal points of reference.

[AC: 13PE/CD] Cycles of Periodicity $9.00/$10.00

ac13 thumbnail***Digital Only*** This work studies the Development and History behind these Cycles of Periodicity, a sub-division of the year, by Seven, forming specific 52-Day periods, as utilized by the Astro-Cards System. Working from one's Sun-Card, the current year, from birthday to birthday, is divided into 7 planetary periods (the Mercury through Neptune Cards) and it is from those Cards in the Progressed Age Charts that we get the energy manifesting in those time periods. This work includes copies of the original tables as used by Randall and Lein, showing the problems and errors they promoted and the author's original single-page version that solved the difficulty. Then to assist the student, the author has printed a set of 12 Tables, one for each Month, with a complete set of the starting and ending dates of these cycles for every day of the year.

[AC: 14BK/PE/CD] Planetary Squares $13.00/$13.00/$14.00

ac14 thumbnail***3 Books Left or order digital*** This work is a study on the Planetary Rulers and their interpretations as related to the 52 Squares of the Pure, Life and Age Spreads. These 90 tables not only give us the Birth Chart data but also all the relevant Current Year Chart information. There have been two previous versions of these Spreads, the 1893 original by Olney H. Richmond, published in the Mystic Test Book and a 1940's version of Edith L. Randall & Florence Campbell, published in the Sacred Symbols of the Ancients, both of these versions are briefly introduced and studied in this work. However, the majority of the text in this work is primarily related to the updated version as used in the Astro-Cards System. The positions of the Cards on these 90 Spreads represent important interpretational starting-points of reference for the above noted Charts, and as such, they set the tone for the entire reading. The interpretations given here are a MUST HAVE for students and practioners.

[AD: 1] Day-Cards & Astro-Degrees $52.00

ad1 thumbnailThis work starts with an examination of the various titles given to our Day-Cards by various authors, following with a study of Calendar Birthday interpretations & then on to the original research into the Day Degrees (the symbolic Degree ruling each day of the year), for Astrological & Card charts. It then moves into the various Degree Symbolism studies from virtually all known sources. With sections covering Lunar Mansions, Astro-Colors, Traditional and Medical Degree Data, to note just some. Then it concludes with some facinating Astro-Cards interface techniques with other Astrological Methods, Arabic Parts, etc.

[PC: 1] Personal Year Planetary Rulers and Cards Calendar $25

pc1 thumbnailYour Personal, Days and Weeks Symbols, and 28-Day Cycles of Interactivity and 52-Day Cycles of Periodicity for your current year. Includes copies of the relevant Age Spread, current year's Circular Progressed Chart, and personal week-day Rulers Table. Additionally, there are 10 pages of explanatory text, and two Keyword Tables, for the Numbers, Suits, Planets and Cycles on the inside covers, and a Day-Card Calendar, with Zodiac Sign dates included, on the back cover.
These can be done any time of the year. But please note, unless a specific personal year is requested, the Calendars always run from the nearest birthday at the time of receiving the order. Incredible potential as a Card Journal with its spaces for notes and a blank back-side of each calendar page.

[AR: 13PE/AR: 13CD] Periodicity (by Dr. Joseph Rodes Buchanan) $13.00/$14.00

ar13 thumbnail***Digital Only*** This special re-typeset edition has been created for those students who have difficulties in finding this type of material, much of it has been hidden within a mass of rare books and is often hard to locate. This work contains the origins of what has become known as the Cycles of Periodicity. Many have claimed to be the originator of this concept but as the author notes he started working on the subject in 1856, but only published his findings in 1897, he then continued to rework and add new material until his death in 1899. The text used is the final Third Edition published in 1912, after that all trace of the material disappears, and a rare original thinker got lost. Iain McLaren-Owens' work on the Cycles of Periodicity AC:13 provides a study of all the writers and books who have brought forth the idea of a Seven-based Cycle be it for a Day, a Year or a Life-span. This edition includes an addition 20 pages about Dr. Joseph Rodes Buchanan and his life work, written by Deborah Lowrey.
