STARCONNECTIONS
Local Horizon-lines
Local horizon lines are the direction of the Luminaries and Wandering Stars with you in the middle. It is the opposite in drawing from the birth chart. This is very practical in your home, and from where you live in which direction you will find what. You see the four directions North East South and West.
The difference between the two charts besides the mirroring of the sky on the ground is that the Local horizon lines go both ways. On the Local horizon-line chart, you see a dotted line extending in the opposing direction of the Luminaries and Wandering Stars. The Nodes are opposite by nature.
Both directions can be used. When you imagine yourself at the centre of this chart you know where the Wanderers are located at the time and place of birth. You keep those lines with you, they are yours.
