| Saglrarius, Uranus In Aries, Saturn in
| Capricorn, Jupiter in Aries, Mars in Libra,
Venus in Scorpio, Mercury in Pisces.
Such in outline Is Baby McKee's biologis,
a la solar biology.
Time was when every scion Of royal race
had his or her horoscope cast at date of birth.
| Dip within the sky-blue covers of Buffers
book. Therein is a system of prognostica-
| tions based on date of birth, amply sufficient
for most human needs and dest1nies.
Selfknowledge is the sum thereof, and
self-knowledge means forewarned, fore,
armed. Nor is it so difficult to at least
classify this self of ours, for after all, there
are, says the Boston philosopher, only Ii
! manner OF people in the world. Humanity,
en- bloc, is divided into II great divisions
decided as to spiritual and mental charac-
terlstics by date of birth. And these IL
grand divisions and their characteristics are
based in turn on the determining influence
of the signs of the zodisc-for the zodiac
rules; each sign thereof fixes the destiny and
determines the governing physical and men,
tai qualities of its own particular division,
ergo, OF every particular individual born
therein.
Plenty of Room for Individuality.
Individuality itself is at the same time
allowed widest possible scope. The inhu-
ence OF every sign is modified ~ by the po-
sltlon OF the moon, and (2) by that of each
OF the planets, both moon and planets hay-
ing a specific and polarizing effect of their
| own. The zoadical dominant is thus modi-
fed in an almost infinite variety of WAYS,
and humanity, albeit divided as a whole
into only II grand divisions yet exhibits the
widest differentiation as to personality-no
| two persons ever being exactly alike.
Solar biology employs yet another thesis
| in the formulation of its system. As every
| one familiar with almanacs is aware, the
zoadcal signs are symbolized under the
form of man-yclypt the grand solar man
! OF our universe. Each sign has its own par
ticular position and governs its own par
| ticular function in this macrocosmic type
| of humanity. Thus Aries has place in and
control of the face and cerebrum; Taurus, of
the cerebellum and neck; Gemini, of the
shoulders and arms; Cancer, of the breast;
Leo. of the heart, etc.
One familiar with the principles of physi-
ology and sarcognomy (the intereIation Of
mind and body). will readily understand
the physical and mental influence of each
sign earthward from their position in this
sgmbolical body.
In the Same Boat With Washington.
Our immediate concern is with Baby Nc
Kee. Born between the dates OF February
19 and March q, Baby Mckee therefore
made his first appearance in this yale OF
tears when the earth was in the sign Pisces
or the Fish. So also was it when the Father
of his Country George Washington, made en-
trance upon the worlds stage OF life. Baby
Mckee, therefore, in common with all other
Americans, big or little, born in the same sign,
Is in good and illustrious company.
But apart from this particular fact which
may or may not have political significance, CAL
culated to encourage the ambitious. Pisces is a

| feet of the Grand Solar Man, it represents
more particularly the human understanding
| l. e., those principles Of the mind and life
| which subserve as base for the whole. Speak
| ing corporeally, without the feet we could not
stand; and metaphysically, without the princi-
| Piles or qualities externalized in Pisces, we
could not materially exist at all. The practi-
cal, the mechanical, the scientidc-knowIedge
of all kinds-aforethougnt of The future, in
nate appreciation Of the value of money-an
these and more belong by right to those born in
Pisces. Valuable as the qualities mentioned
are, they are apt, however, unless modified, to
make person restless, unduly careful.
IN money matters. They are also inclined to be
somewhat stubborn and dogmatic; have strong
wills and tenacity of purpose, and yet when il
comes to the decisive action, are apt to lack
selt-confdence and can best follow leader
They make excellent accountants and business
men Of all kinds. and being generally upright
and Just In their dealings are able to fill posi-
tions of trust and responsibility.
What the Moon Says of It.
1t Is due to children born in this sign, says
our author, to have particularly good educa-
ton, with view toward ascertaining by gen.
eral self-deyelopmens, their proper vocation IN
life; \ wrong start in the world would to them
prove especially disastrous. The diseases to
which Pisces men and women are subject
are varied but affect more especially the
head and feet. But here the moon comes
posing one to weakness OF the digestive organs
and lungs. This polarity also increases the
natural combatyeDess and restlessness of the
sign Pisces. 1t also gives positive inclination
for public service and public speaking.
Taking now the planets in their given order,
Uranus whose particular function is of the
metaphysical and spiritual order being then
(MarclI 10, 1850, in the sign Aries. gives added
mental vigor. love for the spiritual and desire
to penetrate into the world of causes. Saturn
is in the sign Capricorn and gives adaptation to
both scientific and religious professions-bur
acting jointly with the Pisces element
gives leaning toward the mercantile life
with chances largely in favor Of success.
Jupiter, also, is found at that time in Aries,
and its influence. unless counter balanced,
tends to over-weaning feelings of mental pride
and self-importance, which may lead into
reckessness and extravaganza. Mars ex-
presses more particularly the principles OF
parental love and physical life. Baby McKee's
birth finds this planet in the sign Libra (the
reins) where it lends Its influence to the ma
terialistic side of human nature giving in
creased abilities for succeeding in life. ard
strong family affections. Coupled with Pisces
Mars would seem to counteract the feeling Of
distrust and discouragement natural che
former. Unchecked. however, it inclines TO
selfshuess and animalism.
VIII Make Good Lover.
Venus. "embodies the elements Of beauty,
faithfulness and pure conjugsl love-" The
date finds her in Scorpio, where its functions
become altogether inverted, and q source Of
danger, mental, moral and physical The
Pisces influence would, however, serve to
counterbalance its tendencies when rightly di-
rected. Mercury is Baby McKee's own ''home'
planet, being then in his own particular sign
Pisces This (conjunction) gives great love Of
activity and inclination to be on the feet

run away. They are apt to have large feet
and the love of travel is Increased"
So much for the round of planetary influence
altogether. Baby McKee's biologic Is on the
whole a favorable one Granted the necessary
development and training, Baby Mckee will
probably be either of four things: greas
student and traveller; public official with
more than the average free Americans
chances of being President himself some dayy
a professional man or business man, with
chances in favor of success. With
his pockets sufficiently full Of shekels,
Baby Mckee will probably be
reasonably happy man. even mod
erately poor, however. he will as probably be
an over anxious and careworn individual with
a wrinkle or two over his nose and between his
eyes, But rich or poor, the Pisces baby will
most likely grow up to be a good and reliable
citizen being naturally endowed with all the
civil and moral virtues necessary thereto-plus
