The current astrological chart is a talisman of
the Sun for health and authority. The Sun has a
general association with health and the great Renaissance mage
Cornelius Agrippa says of the tables of the
planets that,
"[t]he fourth table is of the Sun, and is made of a square of six, and
contains thirty six numbers, whereof six in every side, and Diameter,
produce 111, and the sum of all is 666. There are over it divine names
with an Intelligency to what is good, with spirit to what is evil,
and out of it is drawn Characters of the Sun, and the spirits thereof.
This being engraven on a Golden plate with the Sun being fortunate,
renders him that wears it to be renowned, amiable, acceptable,
potent in all his works, and equals a man to Kings, and Princes, elevating
him to high fortunes, enabling to do whatsoever he pleaseth:
but with an unfortunate Sun, it makes a tyrant, and a man to be proud,
ambitious, unsatisfiable, and to have an ill ending. "
Three Books of Occult Philosophy, Book II, Chapter 22.
The elected time and date is 6:33 am, EST on
April 17, 2005 for Cleveland Park, a neighborhood of Washington, D.C. 38 N 56 77 W 03.
At this time the Sun rises. It is the day of the Sun
and the planetary hour of the Sun.
The Sun is dignified by exaltation and triplicity
as the day ruler of fire signs in the Dorothean triplicity system.
Agrippa recommends highly the Hymns of Orpheus
for ritual purposes. Here is the Hymn to the Sun.
Frankincense would be excellent incense for a Sun ritual. If gold is too expensive
a material, the table of the Sun can be inscribed on paper. Write the table,
in yellow or gold, if possible, at the elected time, suffumigate it with frankincense
and recite the Orphic Hymn to the Sun.
