Houses and Angles - 4
 (2 votes)"Ascendant, Descendant, Midheaven, Immum Coeli The Ascendant signifies affairs pertaining to the First House. Similarly, the Descendant signifies affairs pertaining to the Seventh House; the Midheaven or Medium Coeli corresponds to the Tenth House; and the Immum Coeli or Lower Midheaven relates to the Fourth House. In the judgement of the matters governed by each of these four angular houses, the angle that is on its cusp should be considered by its sign and aspects received (conjunctions being of foremost importance), together with the sign and house placement of, and aspects received by, its Lord."

The Vertex Axis: A Special Doorway
(2 votes) "My conclusions are: · The Vertex axis is not an especially strong point in a natal chart unless it has a planet or Node conjunct it or in close to exact aspect with it. · If it has a planet or Node conjunct, it often becomes an over-riding force that makes the Vertex and that planet stronger than anything else in the chart, including a planet conjunct the Ascendant or MC. · If it has a planet in close aspect it enhances that planet’s nature, its sign and house to a considerable degree, making that planet a very strong focus in the chart. · A planet conjunct or in a close to exact aspect to the Vertex tends to give a specific and often intense destiny – something the person is required to do or experience for greater soul development, or must do in order to find meaning in life – or both!" |
Vertex - Destiny's Gate
 (3 votes)The Vertex - I like to call the Vertex "Destiny's Gate"... According to the dictionary, a Vertex is "the summit, the highest point reached in the apparent motion of a celestial body or other points. Taken from the Latin - vertere, meaning 'to turn.' " In the horoscopic chart, the Vertex is calculated as being the point located at the intersection of the Ecliptic (path of the Sun) and the Prime Meridian, a plane that divides the celestial sphere into front and back. (If none of that mumbo jumbo chart calculation stuff makes any sense, then don't worry about it. It's only here for those few certain eggheads who know what to do with it and like to think about such weighty things.) The Vertex is actually part of a two point axis comprised of the Vertex and Anti-Vertex... As an axis - if your Vertex is located in 10 degrees of Scorpio, then your anti-Vertex is located in 10 degrees of Taurus. " |
A Theory of The Vertex
 (2 votes)In an astrological chart, The Vertex swings like a pendulum that has the Ascendant as its fixed point. The Vertex only swings through the Western, or right side of the astrological chart. The Vertex rises and falls at the Sun setting part of the astrological chart, the Descendant. The Vertex swings up through the Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth astrological houses. The Vertex crosses the Descendant twice daily, thus opposing the Ascendant on both an upswing and a downswing. The Vertex swings down through the Sixth, Fifth and Fourth astrological houses. |

Vertex
"The Vertex is a point located in the western hemisphere of a chart (the right-hand side) that represents the intersection of the ecliptic and the prime vertical. In astrology, it is considered an auxiliary Descendant. The Anti-Vertex is the point that is exactly opposite the Vertex. Some astrologers refer to the Vertex as the "third angle" of a chart. " |
