I took the picture above when Jupiter, the brightest one in the photo, was approaching to MC. Many astrologers believe MC is the highest place in the ecliptic. Yes, it is. But, not always. Often, the planet appears higher than MC. And it isn’t easy to notice on the horoscope charts because the chart draws 2-dimensional coordinates of the planets. The following are some examples of the images and footage.

Observing the Ascendant and MC with a planisphere.
If you have a planisphere, observing the ascendant and MC for a certain time and date is very easy. See the instruction below.

The intersection at the left-hand side is the ascendant, the right-hand side is the descendant. - Set a ruler vertically on the center of the planisphere (the green line on the diagram below).
- Find the intersections of the ecliptic and the ruler. The intersection in the oval window is MC, the other side ( covered side ) is IC.

Astrology In Statistics, Part One: People who have Mars in Virgo are one and half times more than Pisces
[日本語]
This article concerns astrology and statistics. I will discuss the statistical deviation using the graph of the planetary positions in the zodiacal signs.
Little is known about the fact that people with Mars in Virgo are 1.5 times more than Pisces. If it is randomly collected 10,000 people from all generations, the number of people with Mars sign will be more Scorpio, Leo, Virgo and Libra, and fewer Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, and Taurus. (figure.1)
