General Information:
There seems to have been an explosion in the public’s interest in astrology in recent years. Can you explain this?
There has always been interest in astrology and metaphysics since the dawn of our recorded history, and from time to time people want answers to life’s questions that they can’t seem to get answered elsewhere. There must be more to life than what I see with my eyes? What is my purpose? What does the future hold for me? Why am I having such a hard time? When will it change? WE WANT TO UNDERSTAND OURSELVES and why events in our lives happen the way they do.

I have always thought of astrology as intriguing, but not to be taken seriously, more for fun.
Learning about yourself should be fun and perhaps not taken too seriously. Learning when a cycle in your life is strong or not can be fun also, especially when you avert problems, obstacles, difficulties, or challenges and in fact turn these into opportunities. Getting more out of life is fun!

Many people really don’t believe in astrology. What do you have to say to them?
Astrology is supposed to be purely mathematical, and Astroglyphics is purely mathematical. You don’t have to believe it, math is math. 1+ 1 is always 2 no matter what you believe. Astroglyphics is very different from traditional astrology in that it uses several mathematical systems to arrive at prediction. For example, 1 + 1 = 2, but 3 - 1 = 2, and 6 / 3 = 2 etc., all arrive at “2” but they may be using different pathways or systems. Mathematics “is”, it does not require belief for it to work.

Why are there also many people who are skeptical?
We live in a scientific age and yet the “traditional” sciences have not always been able to explain or describe our situations in life fully. I have often found great knowledge hidden in ancient cultures, knowledge that can explain much of our quest to understand ourselves in this case in the language of science-mathematics.
Galileo said, “Philosophy is written in this grand book — I mean the universe — which stands continually open to our gaze, but it cannot be understood unless one first learns to comprehend the language and interpret the characters in which it is written...it is written in the language of mathematics.”
And yet, there will always be skeptical people.

Many scientists say that astrology cannot be accurate because the earth is not flat or the center of our solar system or universe as the ancients thought?
Of course it isn’t and the ancients knew this, as the ancient Egyptians among others calculated the circumference of the earth to within 99.9932% accurate. IN FACT using the earth as the center of the solar system for ASTROLOGICAL CALCULATIONS is correct. We are looking at the events in a person’s life, and since we reside on earth, and we are the center of our own universes, it is correct to use calculations of planetary motion etc. with the earth as the center-more logically, with each individual as the “center”.

Why astrology?
What about other areas?
Astrology is the oldest of the metaphysical sciences. In its purity it can describe the mathematical relationships of the universe to ourselves, and how time can unfold. Over thousands of years much of this precious knowledge has been lost, forgotten, or completely misunderstood. This ancient wisdom lost a lot of its credibility when the important fragments of understanding that the ancients used were lost. Astrology is mathematical. It is not intuitive as most believe. It is mathematical, but when the knowledge was lost and forgotten, intuition emerged.
AS MATHEMATICS CONTAINS THE VERY BUILDING BLOCKS THAT THE CREATOR USES TO PLAY THIS GREAT GAME OF REALITY, SO ASTROLOGY IS THE UNDERSTANDING OF HOW THOSE MATHEMATICS PLAY OUT IN OUR DESTINY.

But maybe we are not meant to know our future. Maybe we shouldn’t change our future?
We already change our future every day by the simplest of actions. If it is raining, we take an umbrella, and stay dry instead of assuming that we are meant to get wet. We get our teeth checked and fixed so that we won’t be in pain later. We are actually meant to change our future to something better through the use of free will. As we evolve as human beings, we use not only our free will and thinking process but superior technology and information to make life better and more fulfilling. Astroglyphics provides superior information about possible upcoming events in life, so that you can change the issues or events that are not productive, and enhance those that are.
Back to Top
What if you don’t want to change your future?
What about people who say that whatever happens, happens, or it is the will of God — a divine plan.
We are given free will BY GOD as part of who we are, our inheritance. There is a “Divine Plan” but it is improbable that we will ever really understand the depth and scope of what that really is, unless we ourselves become divine. In the meantime, we use our God given right of free will to change our future to something better, to enjoy life more, and to avert or change problems/obstacles into opportunity.

Most people I know are on the roller coaster of life. How can this help them?
One of the most unique things about this system of prediction is the very short periods. Often we can feel that there are many obstacles and difficulties to deal with both externally in our environment, and internally on our feeling level. Not only do we address these issues, but this system can establish time parameters. Once we know HOW LONG something will last, we can get through it. If you know that some of the challenges you are experiencing will only last another week or two, you can move through them with more confidence.

I do have a few friends who say that everything is fine — that their lives are good. Can your system help them?
Most of us have gone through periods of time that seem fine and good....and then the rug gets pulled out from under us. Wouldn’t it be nice to know when that could occur, because inevitably it always does eventually occur. Again, forewarned is forearmed. I’m sure there are some people out there who have never had a rough day, week, or month; I just have never met one.
Back to Top
So this is sort of a road map to your future — to life?
This system can give in the first section or tape, your strengths and weaknesses (those things you need to work on), and well as a time table for future events in life that are possible and probable. Even though we don’t live our lives day by day this way, it is good to know when a cycle can come up which might bring issues you may wish to change or alter. Forewarned is forearmed. We use the information to create a better and more fulfilling life for ourselves. That is the purpose of this system.

History:
Is there more than one kind of astrology? Even people who have heard or understand astrology often think there is only one type. Does traditional astrology use this system?
When someone thinks of astrology, in most cases they are looking at what is termed “western astrology”. Horoscopes in newspapers, and most books refer to this type of “tropical astrology” which does not take into account a 25,920 year cycle of precession that the earth goes through. Western astrology still places the signs where they were in Greek times and seems more metaphorical. Eastern astrology or sidereal astrology actually calculates this precession which is about a 1 degree movement every 72 years, hence it actually places the planets and rising sign in the actual constellation as it would appear in the sky. Over the last 1500 to 1700 years these two systems of astrology have varied more and more (now by about 23 degrees and 59 minutes). The Egyptians, as well as other ancient cultures, did use the precessional cycle in their calculations, so the chart you get is in line with what they would use. Your rising sign therefore may be different in the two systems. That does not mean that western astrology is useless. It just means that western astrologers have a different way of looking at things than this system, and it too can be quite accurate in the hands of a competent astrologer.
Back to Top
Who were these ancient cultures?
The developers of Stonehenge, the Mayans and Incas of Mexico, the Egyptians who developed and built the pyramids, especially the Great Pyramid of Giza, the ancient Vedic Culture of India which built beautiful structures and established a level of pure knowledge, among many others. But it is the Great Pyramid of Giza that really seems to hold our attention. It is said to have had many uses, a burial chamber, a place of initiation into the secret mysteries, and an astronomical observatory. Most people are not familiar with this last use, but last century, a researcher named Richard Proctor discovered that and published his research. If you look deeply enough, you will become convinced that the Great Pyramid was not only an observatory, but was much more. It has held in its very structure a hidden and encrypted knowledge long since forgotten, and it has been right before our eyes for thousands of years.

Theory:
What was the knowledge that was lost, and how was it rediscovered?
The Great Pyramid of Giza has been shown to be a three dimensional near perfect representation of the northern hemisphere of our planet, earth. By using various “sacred geometric formulae,” we can decode the structure of the Great Pyramid to yield the structural mathematics of how time unfolds for an individual. Since we are three dimensional beings, we need to use a three dimensional form of astrology, henceforth called ASTROGLYPHICS, astro- for astrology and -glyphics for hieroglyphics or the picture form of three dimensional, in fact five dimensional form of astrology.
Back to Top
How does this multidimensional system of astrology relate to us in our daily life?
With this new system, we are able to break time apart in different ways, and make predictions based on probability, instead of guesswork. Intuition is not used or needed here as with most astrologers, even though most people think this is an important aspect. We use a more refined system of mathematics and since we are all three dimensional beings existing in time (both linear and experiential), using this multidimensional system will make more sense. Almost any astronomer will tell you that you can’t really understand the universe unless you first start thinking three dimensionally. It is the difference between a picture and a hologram. More so, it is the difference between a picture and a moving hologram.
Back to Top
Five dimensions? What are the other two?
TIME which can be broken down into linear time and experiential time. Linear time is measured time, such as the ticking of the clock, one second, one minute, one hour, etc. And EXPERIENTIAL TIME which is how our consciousness experiences the unfolding of time. If we are really enjoying ourselves at a movie or any type of activity that we enjoy, time “flies”. But it really doesn’t, it only seems to. If we are really bored doing anything, time “drags”. Not really. But our experience of it is so. This is experiential time and both must be merged to give an accurate assessment of how this element of time unfolds for an individual. This is indeed the ROSETTA STONE FOR ASTROLOGICAL INTERPRETATION.
Back to Top
What is the Rosetta Stone?
The Rosetta Stone was found about 200 years ago. It is a piece of stone that has three languages on it — ancient Greek, Demotic Egyptian, and hieroglyphics — all side by side. Until this stone was found, no one knew anything about the ancient hieroglyphics, and therefore the history of that great civilization remained obscured. The Rosetta Stone is just a translation stone, and yet even today, hieroglyphics are still not fully understood. With our understanding that astrology is three dimensions in space and two in time, fully five dimensional, and by using the hidden sacred geometry of the great pyramid, we now have a more accurate system of prediction. We call this the “Rosetta Stone” for astrological interpretation.

What is Sacred Geometry?
Sacred Geometry is the mathematics of nature. It is perfect form and symmetry. Sacred Geometry can be seen in the smallest systems in nature such as atoms and molecules, to the largest in the expansion of the universe. The Great Pyramid and Temple of Luxor were built around these principles, as was the Parthenon and the great cathedrals of Europe. Leonardo daVinci was said to have used this in all of his work, in fact the Mona Lisa was said to have been a treatise on sacred geometry. Frank Lloyd Wright (architect) was thought to have used this as well. These same principles apparently existed in the building of the Mexican pyramids as well as in many areas of the Vedic culture in India. Pure Stapatya Vedic (home building) principles resonate with Sacred Geometry. When we look at anything that has been designed by Sacred Geometry principles, it just seems to be more pleasing to the eye.
*Reference: One of my favorite books is a primer on Sacred Geometry by Robert Lawlor entitled SACRED GEOMETRY Philosophy and Practice.
The ancients apparently left behind a mathematical echo preserved in the mysterious origins of the Great Pyramid. The Great Pyramid of Giza represents the sacred geometry of our earth, and has hidden in its form the geometric formulae of time cycles that unfold for every human being who has been or will be born on this planet. With this understanding, certain truths emerge.

Do the planets control our destiny?
First, planets do not control your destiny, nor do they have any real effect on our lives. Many astrologers believe that somehow some subtle electromagnetic force emanates and controls us. That is bunk. Planets simply act as SIGNPOSTS for what might be termed unified field fluctuations that comprise all matter and energy in nature. Remember it is said that we are made of the same stuff as stars are. The universe is in complete synchrony, and this is what the ancient cultures of Egypt etc. understood. (Even more recently our American Indian cultures talk about our “connection” to land and mother Earth). What the ancient cultures did was to parallel life events to the motions of planets, so that with future motions of planets certain life events could be indicated. If we look up at a cloudy sky, we might say it can rain, because in the past that has happened. On future cloudy days, rain may be predicted. There are many many examples we could use, but the bottom line here is that planets do not have any control over you or your future.
Second, we have free will, which of course relates to the answer above. Being human and having a brain (in most cases!) we must use our cognitive and intuitive abilities to make decisions in our lives. This is what most people will agree that God had in mind. That we use our free will to create something better in our lives. We use astrology and especially Astroglyphics to analyze parameters for possible future events, and then we use our free will to avoid things that are less than positive. We can know when to accentuate the positive and remove the negative. The When becomes more important than the What.
Third, everything in the universe works on the principle of cycles. This is often referred to as “cycle theory” (the Center for Cycle Research in Wayne, PA. USA. has catalogued over 5000 cycles including biological, climatic, financial, etc.). In this system we parallel the cycles of motions of planets with human cycles, and make predictions based on that. Remember, there is no planetary cause and effect here. By tracking future motions of planets and paralleling them to human cycles (based on the sacred geometry of the Great Pyramid) we can predict future probabilities for any human being with the parameters of time cycles. The Astroglyphics System of Prediction will generate both longer and short cycles included on Tape 2 of each chart reading. Long cycles vary from three or four months to two or three years, but short cycles are generally two to four weeks in duration, so there are many short cycles to cover in each chart.

How does free will work here? Is everything predestined? Or can we control our own future?
There is always a lot of controversy surrounding this question of free will and pre-destiny. One way to look at this is that today’s free will is tomorrow’s destiny. Many believe in a divine plan, in that everything is predestined, and often use the adage “it’s God’s will”. I believe God gave us free will to use to better our lives and to make constructive decisions that are both helpful to others and helpful to us. I also feel there is a divine plan, but that an important ingredient to that is our personal free will to act rightly or wrongly, that is in accord with the laws of Nature (God) or contrary to the laws of Nature. Perhaps one could think that to fulfill the divine plan we must have free will so that we will make the CORRECT choice in accord with that divine plan. We must always think and try to better ourselves and our fellow man or woman. The answer seems to be that both free will and destiny coexist.
EXAMPLE: If you look from one end of a root system of a plant, it is obvious which path or direction to go. From the tip of a root, there is only one way to the trunk. But if you look from the trunk, there are many options one has and choice must enter. This is the same root system but from a different view or perspective. One direction is free will (from the trunk) the other is predetermined (from the root tip). The example of a river can work the same way. If you travel downstream and come to a fork, you may chose either direction, but if you travel up stream it is obvious which way to go to continue upstream. Free will vs. destiny. Both.
Back to Top
How do you predict events in people’s lives or their future?
We take a person’s “place in the universe” or starting point which is of course the birth date, time, and place, which then places you on a “spiral” of time. Cycles exist in people’s lives (as stated above) but in reality, what appears to be a circle (cycle) is actually a spiral through time. In fact if you take a spiral and turn it 90 degrees, you will see the circle aspect, but turn it back and you see it as a spiral. No time period is exactly like any other even though there will be “similar” time periods throughout our lives.

How does this system of astrology differ from what we can find in the newspapers, books, printouts, or other astrology?
With the astrology in newspapers, you are restricted to the Sun sign in twelve locations, basically twelve permutations, which is of course very simple. Anyone who has read an astrology book and tried to interpret their chart certainly knows how difficult that is, not to mention trying to figure out how time cycles work and what they indicate. The Astroglyphics System has over 14,203,000,000 permutations. The level of refinement in this system far exceeds any system ever developed for predictive purposes, and it is completely mathematical. It is not dependent on a person’s intuition, feeling, or mood, which means it is very consistent. It is also very different from other astrological systems.
Back to Top
Does someone have to ask you a question for this to work? I know often in other types of readings they want to “hear your voice” or have you ask questions.
No, it is a purely mathematical system, not “front loaded” or set up with guesses. Back to Top
What exactly will you tell a person in a chart interpretation? Is this a private consultation?
I will be making audio tapes for each person, so this is not a private consultation on the phone or in person. I will say exactly what I would say in person, though, in a more concise and organized way. You will probably find that your questions are answered as you go through your tapes, without even telling me what they are. There are two tapes, the first dealing with birth chart information containing general information about your rising sign and planetary configuration. Here your strengths (what you have to work with in this life) and your weaknesses (those things you must learn in life) are seen, as well as best areas of work and profession, and health issues that may arise. The second tape deals with time cycles. Longer time cycles out two or so years are covered followed by a series of sequential short cycles of two to four weeks each.
Back to Top
How is your system different from what we think of as “astrology” in our culture?
“Astrology” in our culture is perhaps better known as Western Astrology or Tropical Astrology, and uses a system of mathematics based on a starting point called the vernal equinox (onset of spring around March 21). At the vernal equinox about 1700+ years ago, the zodiacal signs lined up with the actual constellations, but since then there has been a slow movement “backwards” along the ecliptic of about 1 degree per 72 years. This is known as precession, or the earth’s wobble on its axis (one full wobble or circle at the axis takes about 26,000 years). This means that the actual constellations are “moving” backwards at a very slow rate or one could say that the signs used in traditional western astrology are diverging very slowly from the actual constellations. For example, in the tropical or western system your Sun may be considered to be in the sign Aries on April 1st, even though it is traveling through the constellation of Pisces, which would be the Sun sign in sidereal or eastern astrology. In the mathematics of Sidereal Astrology which is used in the Astroglyphics System, this “precession” of equinoxes is taken into account, which means that the “signs” will always line up with the actual constellations in the night sky.
Back to Top
You said this is a mathematical procedure. What about intuition (and/or psychic prediction)?
Intuition may play a role in other systems, but astrology in its purest context is mathematical and SHOULD NOT require the intuition of the astrologer. Astroglyphics is PURELY mathematical, and requires no input other than birth time, date, and place. Often a psychic or some less competent astrologer will set you up by asking you a leading question, and depending on your mannerisms, give you the answer you want to hear, often IT ISN’T TRUE OR LIKELY, it just makes you feel better for a moment. This is what has given astrology such a bad name over the last few thousands of years. Pure astrology is mathematical only, no leading questions, no intuition, no psychic phenomenon, JUST VERY REFINED PREDICTIVE MATHEMATICS. Remember 1 + 1 is always 2, whether the astrologer is having a good day or a bad day or whatever, 1 + 1 is always going to be 2.
Back to Top
Is your system 100% accurate?
I don’t believe anything can be 100% accurate 100% of the time. What we predict is PROBABILITIES for future events, not absolutes. In fact, most people realize that once you know something can happen you can change it through the force of your own free will. If an event is good, then one can embrace it and enjoy it, but if a cycle comes up for an accident or problem, one can often avert it just by knowing that it is possible, and being more aware to avert it. This is free will.
Back to Top
How do these cycles work in prediction of say...an event in your future? Can you give me an example...as if you were doing my chart?
For many people an accident or an illness may be predicted, or on the positive side, a job change or relationship. An example of what I would say in such cases would be:
April 2 — April 24 During this time you should be wary of a possible vehicle accident, mostly from not paying close enough attention while you are driving. This is easy to change by simply paying more attention. You may also find that if you’ve gotten overtired, that a minor illness like the flu or a cold may surface, which may force you to get more rest. If you rest more this cycle, you should be able to avert this.
I would then continue with the other indicators in this time cycle on the audio tape...
This should be a positive period for you especially for relationships. You should find any permanent relationships like marriage improving, and if you are not in a serious relationship, one could begin here, so you may want to get out more. This may also be a good time for work changes or promotions. If one comes your way it should be positive so accept it, but if one has not surfaced by the last week of this cycle, it may be time to ask a superior about it.
Back to Top
How will this help me understand relationships?
Once you begin to understand yourself more, you can understand how you interrelate to another, which is helpful not only in personal relationships, but also professional ones. We can know what we react to and why, as well as knowing when our cycles are strong or weak. If we then can also begin to understand another person’s strengths or weaknesses, then we can compensate when necessary. For example, if we are in a strong and clear period for communication in personal relations, and our significant other is in a testy period, then we know not to push too much. KNOWING “WHEN” is more important that knowing “What” in this case.
Back to Top
Can your system give compatible signs for relationships?
Yes of course, but that is simplistic and there is much more to compatibility than just the rising or sun signs. I have always found that we go through relationship cycles, many of them in life, and when the time is right, the right person will generally show up. If not in a present cycle then in one in the not to distant future. This system will tell you when the door is open, when to be more social. Remember, there is more than one marriage cycle, and more than one possible “soul mate” in life.
Back to Top
Will this help my children, or more importantly, will this help me understand them, their motivations and fears?
Certainly, because we can not only cover your strengths and weaknesses, but also theirs, so you can naturally know what it takes to motivate them, what their natural talents and abilities are, and when they are in good or bad cycles. You may notice that children even in the same family are different and need to be treated perhaps a little differently. What one needs, the other may not. Having this knowledge will allow you to see these differences more clearly, and therefore perform action more suitable for their growth.
Back to Top
This sounds complicated. Do I need to understand this to be able to use your system?
Certainly not. I have left out all of the complicated jargon about astrology in this system because the explanation would take longer than giving you the interpretation. All you have to be able to do is play an audio cassette tape and listen, and after all it is your own life you’ll be listening to.
