If there is a language to describe a Science of Celestial Influence, then we must look for it in the field of harmonic science. at perihelion and aphelion and expressed the ratio as a musical interval. Of 74 tones, 58 belong to the major triad C E G. Kepler's achievement is a powerful argument for the harmonic arrangement of the solar system. According to John Anthony West, author of The Case for Astrology: harmonics and resonance are now understood as fundamental scientific principles underlying all material creation, and their application to celestial correspondences follows logical- ly from what is known about them in other physical domains."’ There is extensive evidence of this from reputable scientists like Giorgio Piccardi and Frank A. Brown, who studied the effect of planetary and cosmic influences on chemical compounds and liv- ing systems, and from Hans Jenny, who conducted experiments on the principles of sound and frequency as harmonic, organising principles. THE HARMONY OF THE SPHERES According to John Anthony West, author of The Case for Harmony is the a priori Law written in all of Nature. Itis the Astrology: "...harmonics and resonance are now understood as "philosopher's stone", and it has the potential to unite all branches fundamental scientific principles underlying all material creation, of science, so any Science of Celestial Influence must be ruled by and their application to celestial correspondences follows logical- the same law. Kepler stated numerous times that all Nature is ly from what is known about them in other physical domains."’ symbolised in geometry. There is extensive evidence of this from reputable scientists like In 1920, the German scientist Hans Kayser developed a theory Giorgio Piccardi and Frank A.
