1. Introduction to the Basic Idea of Astrogeographia based on the book : Astrogeographia - Correspondences between the Stars and Earthly Locations, A Bible of Astrology and Earth Chakras by Robert Powell and David Bowden

2. The basic idea of Astrogeographia is that each place on Earth corresponds to a unique star in the heavens, its “ star of birth ”, which imprinted into that location at the beginning of the Earth.

3. For example, the star Alnitak in the “ belt ” of the Orion constellation corresponds to the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt. Alnitak is seen here lined up in longitude with the Great Pyramid. The constellation of Orion was seen as the god Osiris by the ancient Egyptians.

4. By fixing the longitude alignment of Alnitak with the Great Pyramid, as well as the latitude alignment of the Celestial Equator with Jerusalem, it becomes possible to calculate the “star of birth” for every place on Earth. The Celestial Equator (yellow circle) is the projection of the Earth's Equator out onto the sphere of the stars. This is lined up with the latitude circle through Jerusalem, at 31° 47′ N.

5. Any initial difficulty in understanding this alignment can be resolved by realising that the continental plates containing both Africa and the Middle East have been moving in general northwards, since the time of the original imprint of the stars onto the Earth.

6. When the “ star of birth ” for each place on Earth has been calculated according to the above two alignments, a complete map of the sphere of the stars onto the Earth emerges. ( AQ=Aquarius PI=Pisces AR=Aries TA=Taurus GE=Gemini etc )
