Inscriptions

The Rose of Venus

Eight years of Venus's geocentric wandering, traced upon the base plate — the five-petalled figure she draws in our sky.

Terrestrial Resonance

fundamental 7.83 Hz

On Accuracy

Positions hold to a few arcminutes near the present era — verified against recorded eclipses and outer-planet sign ingresses. Pluto follows an approximation sound between roughly 1900 and 2100; beyond that window, trust him not. Mark also: the Moon travels her own breadth each hour, some thirteen degrees a day. For natal work, the exact hour and place matter greatly; dates entered here are read in this device's local time. When Sol and Luna truly meet or oppose, the instrument draws a golden thread through the Earth. Consult a professional ephemeris before setting store by any chart.

Handling

Drag to tilt and turn. Pinch or scroll to draw near or away. Touch a wandering body for its dossier. The ◉ seal veils all instruments.
