{Adapted/excerpted from the Preface:)
This booklet gives the celestial longitude of the planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, as well as the planetoid Chiron and the Moon’s North Node (Caput Draconis, “the Dragon’s Head”), for the first day of each calendar month of the 21st Century, plus the years immediately preceding and following; that is, from 2000 to 2101 C.E.These positions are given in the Sidereal zodiac, using the Fagan-Bradley ayanamsa. Plan¬etary positions are given for 0h Ephemeris Time (ET) on the first day of each month. This approximates 0h Universal Time (Greenwich Mean Time) within a small variance that, unfortunately, cannot be predicted across the next century, but is expected to amount to a few minutes at most. Within the scope of this volume – planetary positions at monthly intervals – this difference is negligible.
We have initially created this volume as a tool for ourselves. Prior to the 21st Century, similar volumes were available, which became a mainstay in our practical astrological work. The first was a slim volume by the astrologer Raphael, tabulating the monthly longitudinal degree (in the Tropical zodiac) of Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Then, in 1975, Gene Lockhart created a similar volume for the years 1900-1999, using the Sidereal zodiac and adding Pluto.
One of the most common uses of a reference such as this is in charting longer-term transits to a natal horoscope. We have added, as an appendix, concise interpretations of the transits of Pluto, Neptune, Uranus, Saturn, and Jupiter. These have all of the advantages and disadvantages of interpretations that are so concise. While they cannot possibly identify every detail of an event, they speak primarily to the essence of the experience of the time.
