The Declaration of Independence Horoscope: 4 July 1776
A circular hand-drawn horoscope divides the sky into twelve labelled sectors around a central date and place. The centre reads 4 July 1776, 0:15 p.m., Philadelphia, with planetary signs distributed through the surrounding houses. Reproduced in Sepharial’s Metaphysical Astrology, the diagram applies the book’s historical astrological method to the American Declaration of Independence. The time is the chart’s stated premise rather than a verified record of the declaration’s adoption.
