Chiron, Pholus and Nessus: To the Edge and Beyond

by Melanie Reinhart

Originally published in print as 'Saturn, Chiron and the Centaurs', this is a revised, stand-alone version of the material on Chiron and the Centaurs, introducing the reader to ground-breaking new ideas drawn from recent astronomical discoveries in the outer solar system. Several new celestial objects that behave somewhat like Chiron have been catalogued, and officially named "Centaurs". This unique compilation presents new material concerning the orbital cycle of Chiron, and a summary and elaboration of the astrological research to date on Pholus, the second Centaur. In addition, original material on the meaning of the third Centaur, 1992HA2, 'Nessus' is included, together with a new section on the astrology of its naming. The meaning of the Centaurs is re-contextualised, and an ephemeris for Chiron, Pholus and Nessus is included, as well as several explanatory diagrams. All technical material was specially computed and updated by Dieter Koch, master programmer. Here, the reader can participate in a seminar where seed ideas were being expressed for the first time, and the astrologer will join in with the genesis of an entirely new understanding of factors which have proven themselves very useful in working with the individual horoscope. This material, first published in 1996, is a benchmark of intuitive research, exploring the meaning of these intriguing new objects.
