Message from Michael Feist "While I was working on the publication of the new English compilation, I again noticed that some changes could make the content more usable. The structure of the book contains repetitions of two-factor combinations for practical reasons. Unfortunately, structural two-factor repetitions were reproduced often without the same interpretation texts in the book. In short, the original rulebook had contained more information about two-factor combinations than was assumed. However, this information was spread over several pages. For the current compilation, which is available here, I’ve merged several connected interpretations together. The repetitions of two-factors combinations appear on different pages with the same text now. Repetitions of this kind may seem superfluous, but you will find that repetitions make the book much easier to work with.

There are further changes compared to previous editions. Lefeldt’s son Ekkehard, encouraged me many years ago to modernize the book. As a consequence the original introductory section by Ludwig Rudolph and Hermann Lefeldt is no longer included in the English edition. This decision was difficult for me, but it was necessary. The previous text was compiled in a hurry and a lot of the information given in the wider-ranging German introduction was missing. The new introductory section (pages 8-34) gives a more comprehensive outline of the Uranian System of Astrology. "

    The introduction of planetary pictures into astrology made it possible to examine horoscope charts in a scientific way. This new approach was an eye opener for many astrologers, and the planetary pictures have since then been confirmed in every definition over the years and have withstood the test of time. The expanded rulebook which is in use today, still contains interpretations from this earlier time. This confirms the theory of planetary pictures as a permanent application, based on the research work over several decades. It validates the value of the extensive research work contributed by the followers of the Hamburg School.

    When examining horoscopes, there are two approaches that can be taken. Either the horoscope is examined on easily detectable structures within the chart, or the horoscope is specifically evaluated for a certain question. When using the first approach, the rulebook provides the preferred support for the astrologer, whereas when using the second approach, the lexicon is the preferred solution. In short, the rulebook is an inspiration to find possible wording of a discovered planetary picture, whereas the lexicon is a support for tracking down the unknown position of a planetary picture, that reveals information about a certain question.

    Starting with the second edition of the German rulebook (1932), a word index was added to the rulebook, which referred the user to the pages where the words appeared in the rulebook. One had to find the entry in the index list and then move to the correct page to search the entry again. At the start of second period (1946), this index was discarded for the fourth edition, because entries had doubled in size due to five additional factors. The previous index had become ineffective for these larger text entries. In 1957, Ludwig Rudolph published the first lexicon by Ilse Schnitzler, which was a solution to this problem. The new lexicon presented here was compiled according to this model.

    In preparation for this compilation, almost 20,000 individual entries of the rulebook were identified and analyzed. In the next step, nearly 50,000 specific entries were assigned to 3,200 individual index words to complete the work.
