East Point (Equatorial Ascendant), the way of communicating and interacting at the collective level

In his book "Horoscope Symbols" (1981), Robert Hand describes the East Point [!] as "the most impersonal [relationships]: it indicates one's relationships with the larger world around one."

While the ascendant is related with the action of going towards another person to interact face to face, the East Point (also called Equatorial Ascendant) is targeted towards a group of people that can be more or less broad. For example, speaking in public in front of a room full of people, on a radio, television or Internet channel; or write a press release, on an internet blog or on a social network, etc...

The East Point is related with the way of communicating and interacting at the collective level, as well as the aspects of personal life that can be made public and achieve media difussion.

Natalie Portman, actress of the movie "Star Wars: Episode I - Phantom Menace" (1999), has the East Point in Scorpio (9th Moon-Node House), in opposition to Chiron; and in semisextile with Pluto-Juno in Libra (10th Moon-Node House).

Al Pacino, actor in the movie "The Recruit" (2003), has the East Point at the low point of Cancer sign (4th Moon-Node House, cusp) near Chiron; in conjunction with the object Zhulong; and in square with the object Varuna and the centaur Hylonome at the low point of Aries sign (7th Moon-Node House, cusp).

Felipe VI, king of Spain, has the East Point in Taurus (12th Moon-Node House), in trine with Jupiter in Virgo (8th Moon-Node House); in trine with Venus in Capricorn (4th Moon-Node House); and in opposition to Ceres in Scorpio (6th Moon-Node House).

Vertex, unusual situations, difficult to assimilate in the context of everyday experiences

The Vertex is a geometric point defined by the intersection between the ecliptic plane and the main vertical plane, which divides between forward and backward; just as the plane of the horizon divides between above and below, and the plane of the meridian divides between left and right.

According to Robert Hand, astrologically, the Vertex has relevance in "dramatic situations that are not characteristic of one's ordinary life".

 

Elizabeth Banks, "Walk of Shame" (2013)

The Vertex is related with those situations that stand out for being very far from the baseline of what happens to a specific person on a daily basis. This are difficult to handle and to assimilate within the context of habitual experiences (specific to each person).

Oppositions to the Vertex (Anti-Vertex) 

 

Elizabeth Banks, actress of the movie "Walk of Shame" (2013), has the Vertex in Aquarius (11th Moon-Node House), in conjunction with the Sun and Jupiter.

 

Harrison Ford, actor of the movie "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" (1989), has the Vertex in Aries (5th Moon-Node House), square Jupiter in Cancer (2nd Moon-Node House); and quincunx with Juno in Scorpio (10th Moon-Node House), which is in trine with Jupiter.

 

Ben Affleck, actor of the movie "Nuclear Panic" (2002), has the Vertex in Scorpio (3rd Moon-Node House, cusp), square with the Sun in Leo (6th Moon-Node House).

Quality of number 27, very fluid transition processes, in which the end overlaps with the beginning

This are the astrological aspects based on number 27:

• septivingintile: H27 = 13º20'
  
• (bi)septivingintile: 2·H27 = 26º40'
• (quadra)septivingintile: 4·H27 = 53º20'
• (penta)septivingintile: 5·H27 = 13º20'
• (hepta)septivingintile: 7·H27 = 93º20'
• (octa)septivingintile: 8·H27 = 106º40'
• (deca)septivingintile: 10·H27 = 133º20'
• (onci)septivingintile: 11·H27 = 146º40'
• (treci)septivingintile: 13·H27 = 173º20'

The septivigintile aspect (harmonic 27) belongs to the family of talent aspects, which derive from the division of the circle (360º) by the number 3, such as the trine (harmonic 3) and the sextile (harmonic 6).

To understand better its meaning, the number 27 can be decomposed into 3 ^ 3, as a triple combination of itself, because it shows the emphasis on the talent of the number 3 (trine) acting in two different hierarchical levels. It can also be decomposed into 9 * 3, thus showing the combination of the quality of gradual formation of the number 3 (trine) with the quality of adaptation to the cycles of the number 9 (novile).

The septivigintile aspect (harmonic 27) represents very fluid transition processes, in which the end overlaps with the beginning, and whose formation is more visible on a wide scale.
