Advanced Planetary Condition
8 modules on the single question traditional astrology cares about most: can this planet actually deliver? Sect, the four rulership systems, solar and lunar phenomena, bonification and maltreatment.
Eight weeks, one criterion at a time, ending in a single synthesised verdict per planet. Prerequisite: planets, signs, houses, aspects, and the basics of traditional method. This is not a beginner track.
Study track built in the lineage of Demetra George's Hellenistic teaching, following the classical syllabus of Ancient Astrology in Theory and Practice and the Valens time-lord material. Lessons are Astrolearn originals, not course recordings.
Syllabus
The first and most decisive filter of traditional analysis: is the chart diurnal or nocturnal? How each planet rejoices — or suffers — in hemisphere, sign, and solar phase.
The third rulership system. Finding the triplicity lords of a planet, how they support its condition, and the classical first–second–third lord reading of a life.
The fourth and fifth rulership systems. The five uneven bounds of each sign, the ten-degree faces, and how a planet in its own bound gains real dignity.
The synodic cycle of the superior planets. Speed, direction, visibility, heliacal rising and setting, and why a planet under the beams behaves so differently.
Mercury and Venus and their four critical moments, stations, then the lunar conditions: Hellenistic void of course, the Moon under the bond, and eclipse births.
Aspects as action done to a planet. Testimony, seeing and witnessing, then the first configurations: adherence, connection, and enclosure by benefics or malefics.
Overcoming, striking with a ray, opposition from a poorly situated malefic, and occupying the domicile of a benefic or malefic. The full maltreatment checklist.
Assembling sect, rulership, solar and lunar phenomena, and aspect testimony into one verdict. Grading a planet, and what good and poor condition actually predict.
