Ascendant


 In astrology, the degree of the zodiac which is nearest the eastern horizon at the time of a person's birth or other noteworthy event.


 This degree was originally called the horoscopos in Greek astrology, from which the modern word horoscope is derived.


 There are exactly 30 degrees per each of the 12 astrological signs; 12 times 30 equals 360 which is the span of the ecliptic, the apparent path the Sun traces out along the sky — independent of Earth's rotation — in the course of one year. Each one of the twelve signs rise and fall during the course of one 24-hour day.

If using Microsoft Internet Explorer 7, clicking (or pressing the SPACEBAR or ENTER) on the Flash graphics is necessary to activate it.

As you may have noticed, Occultopedia is being updated. Navigation areas are completed, but the word definition pages are not. The layout in these pages might not look as good as they should. Updating them may take a while, so please, be patient and understanding. I am only one person working on this site in my spare time.


As soon as these updates are concluded I will begin setting up the Forums, so we can all discuss the occult, paranormal and extraordinary, and whatever else we please. Registration will be required.


Occultopedia's images and art are also undergoing an adjustment to Flash based graphics. This process may take some time as well, so again, be patient and understanding.
           






           

Occultopedia is the genuine article, the original and the best internet index of the extraordinary and uncanny, shamelessly copied by many, but never equaled. Online since the early 90s — at first in a free web space provider, and in 1997 finally with its own domain name and hosting — Occultopedia still is the principal online resource for those looking for the unexplained, the curious and the unusual.
