Planets Out-of Bounds

[Jodi Perry]

Hi my name is Jodi and am interested in joining in if it would be ok?
I just recently ran across an article in the "Mountain Astrologer" and
what the authors theory is on out of bound planets and I sure think it
is a very valid subject to learn more about.
Has anyone here looked into those?

There isn't really any joining in this group - like all Usenet groups anyone
can post that wants to(though as this is a moderated group, the posts won't
appear unless they meet the rules in the Charter, which is posted every
month so you should be able to see it). Good to have someone new around!

I've never heard of "planets out of bounds". Can you explain? Could you
maybe post a link to that article?
All the best,

[Jodi Perry]

This was new to me also but there is not a http:// to go to that I can
see in the article.
I bought allot of past issues of Mountain Astrologer magazine and it was
in the June/July 2010 #151.
It is when a planet is way out in its declination of normal movement
north or south. The average is 23 deg. 28' ....... it is suppose to
cause the planet some strange effects, either for good OR ill depending
on how it is working in your personal chart.
It sure sounds very valid to me and I would love to learn more about
them. The most important one is the out of bounds Moon in the natal
chart.
THANKS for answering my first post! I appreciate it.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I had heard the term before, but it never made any sense.

I like this explaination: http://aliceportman.com/what-is-out-of-bounds/

While you are at it, please look up parallel by declination and contra-parallel by declination. My original teacher was all about those, and now I see why (finally!). Those plus OOB can be usefull stuff, especially if your normal pattern-searches are failing to actually match your person.

Hi Jodi!

I am Kjell, welcome to alt.astrology.moderated. Glad to have you on board!

The topic of planets being out of bounds has been up earlier in this group, and these posts are available via the archives, meaning you can search the group's history through Google Groups. Here is a discussion I myself started, it contains a link to a webpage in the first post, but the website seems to be offline nowadays, so that link will be of no help. However, the discussion itself contains quite a number of posts, so it could always be a starting point for going deeper:

https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!searchin/alt.astrology.moderated/%22out$20of$20bounds%22$20OR$20OOB/alt.astrology.moderated/9uufOG-e5q8/qpzbhM0vMn4J

And to find all the posts that contain "out of bounds" or "OOB", as it is sometimes shortened, check this link:

https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!searchin/alt.astrology.moderated/%22out$20of$20bounds%22$20OR$20OOB

Myself, I have not *focused* upon out of bounds, but from the little I have looked at it, I agree that it seems like a valid part of astrology, worthy to learn about. In particular I think it may be of some interest to see if one has a period in one's progressed chart when a planet goes OOB, or goes "back inside bounds". That makes OOB valuable also for predictive purposes. Not every person has such a planet, some years no one is born with any planet OOB, and things that are one the rare side may always be extra helpful in understanding the charts and the people that have them.

Regarding joining the group, just hop right in. I moderate this group, and you can always contact me directly if you have any questions about "how things work" or some such. Our Charter is posted to the group monthly and can also be found at this link:

http://www.altastrologymoderated.com/charter

The main things in the Charter are to not be hostile to astrology or other posters, but diversity of opinion as such is encouraged. The only thing one might do inadvertently not being familiar with the Charter that is not allowed would be to comment upon another poster's personal chart unless they have invited you to do so. The rule is there for a reason, but if one has never heard of it, it is not self-evident. Posts like that will not go through moderation, but otherwise, being civil is really all it takes. The Charter explains what that means in more practical terms and could be considered our "DNA", and should something in it seem mysterious, do contact me and I'll "translate" it.

Again, much welcome!

Hi kjell
Thanks for the welcome!!! I have been on webtv for several years now,
and have sent the https {not possible to get too with our tiny browser}
but have forwarded to my self at my lap top and will surely check out
the info ASAP. Thanks for sending that for me.
A little history for you. I took basic astrology classes in
1976-1978 and stopped studying in 1988 ...... I just began my studies
again about 11 months ago and was very surprised to find out that I had
not forgotten it.
So needless to say the OOB was something I had never heard of before.
I love a new challenge and I think this is it!!
Yes I did read about some natal charts that do not have the OOB and mine
doesn't have any of them. But I have several charts here that DO .....
EX: Moon; Mercury; Mars; Venus. One has both Mercury and Mars.
Thanks
Jodi
