About Time Wheels

TM

Time Wheels are automatically generated by double clicking on a time lord listing or on graphs or any output such as the graphical ephemeris which gives dates. All listings such as Primary Directions, Firdariyyah, Distributions of the Solar Revolution, and all Hellenistic time lord procedures as well as graphical listings of these methods will generate the relevant time wheels for comparison simply by clicking on the graph or double clicking on the date. Simply set your default wheels on the Autogenerated Charts tab after pressing F3 and they can be selected and set in any order...

You can also include fixed stars or any wheel types (up to 5 wheels in all). I added an extra wheel because I was working with a natal chart with profections, transits and zodiacal releasings from the lot of fortune and spirit. But sometimes I work with just profections while viewing zodiacal releasing in list or graph form...

As you can see, this can get quite crowded. By limiting the visibility of outer planets one can focus more easily on the relevant planets in some of the older time lord procedures. You can "drill down" the heirarchy of prediction methods by using the primary directions at the most general level and then use the profections and transits in the time wheel. By seeking the domicile or exaltation lord of the more general times and finding where that planet is in the nativity, one knows when the general times come into "focus" as Schmidt would say when the sub period is activated. For instance, if the general period is Leo, then if the Sun is in Taurus, the focus of the times is the Taurus period which is when "events" that mark the period are likely to be most noticable.

When you glide your mouse over the color shaded sections or arrows you can see the onset of these periods and they can be animated forward or backward in time with the use of the transit toolbar at the top. These shaded sections show what time lords are currently active at the time and by gliding your mouse over the planets, which shows the sect and winds you can tell which periods are difficult and which are easy. Most of the time there is a mixture, but a key to decoding these sequences is to compare past periods on the same level and then recall what the issues were at the time. Often one finds parallels between the same level periods (I usually look at the 2nd and 3rd level periods in this regard as lifetimes aren't long enough to compare major periods and level 4 periods tend to be too trivial to notice significant parallels). Valens has rules for interpreting the most general periods though which usually last more than a decade.
