<strong>The</strong> <strong>Astrology</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Space</strong><br />

<strong>The</strong> Galactic disk<br />

Because we are situated so far out on the galactic<br />

disc, there is also a great difference in what we see<br />

when we look toward the Center as opposed to the<br />

Anti-Center <strong>of</strong> our galaxy. <strong>The</strong>re is much less material<br />

between us and the rim or edge <strong>of</strong> the galactic plane<br />

than there is toward the galactic center. When we<br />

gaze toward the galactic center (GC), we receive the<br />

combined light from all the stars between us and that<br />

center as well as the light stemming from the stars in<br />

the galactic disc beyond the center. In fact, as we look<br />

into the GC, we receive light (at once) that has been<br />

traveling to reach us for very different periods <strong>of</strong> time.<br />
