Se -- -------------------- DISCOVERY OF NEW PLANET BRINGS WEIGHTY PROBLEM Astrologers Must Thousands of Horoscopes Revise New York, Antrologers like Elisabeth Aldrich, the Rev, Arthur W. Brooks, Evangeline Adams and Jacob M. Levie welcome the dis covery of the ninth planet because it puts them in possession of the unknown factor which, like 'jaoks running wild in a poker game, has heen ravaging all thelr calculn- tions, causing predictions of A market break just before a risv and a rise just betors a break, and that sort of thing. Mrs, Aldrich sald she was con. tident tho new planet would en- able her to step up ler accuracy trom 75 to 85 per cent, and would ald many others to step up theirs from 30 or 40 to 40 or 45 per cont The new planet was identified by several asrtologers as having a terrific effect on world conditions, and the fact that it was unkhown at the time seeisa to be the reason why the astrologers, in their pub: lle predictions for 1014, unani mously neglected the little item of the World War, One thing that stood out strong: ly was that tens of thousands of horoscopes will be in serious neod of immediate revision, The money, love and long life prospects of those born in the sign of Gomini (May 21- June 21) (August 31 to September 21), ave nll ropealed or thrown into contuss fon-by the new planet, The worst part in that it may take 100 years to discover just how the new plan ol works, and most of those born fu these unfortunate periods will have erienced their fates, long before y honest astrologer will bo in a position to predict them, Jacob M, Levie sald, with a breaking voice, that people born on or near July 4 have their horo~ soopes pretty badly shattered by the new planet, There are two schools of thought among the astrologers, One holds that the planet has ab ways heen out theve and has al ways been raining its intluence, on ma.kind, The other school holds that a planet remains absolutely neutral or harmless until it has been discovs ered, whereupon it begins to oper ate with terrible energy---sohemes fall, partners shove each other ins to the business -troubies eolumn, friends turn false and talk about you behind your back, Kings pl how wars, erime waves spring up, ete, Mra, Aldrich, who ix the editor of "The New York Astrologer", sald that Planet X, according to yory careful reckoning, which she had made during an atternoon, was the New York planet, the planet that control the destiny of thin it, beside: exercising a great Influence on the history of North Amerien. 1.0 pointed out that generations of study might be necessary to . understand it thor oughly, because eighty-four yours and Virgo | Noptune and its Influence was still fmperfectly undersisod, All of the astrologers interview- od suid they had suspected the ex- istence of the new planet because of the manner in which the most perfect calculations had been res peatedly wrecked by some un- known and potent force, Evangeline Adams said that tho npatrolgers had called the undigs covered planet Isis, while the Rev, Mr, Brooks sald that it was known to astrologers as Vulcan or Lilith, Mrs, Aldrich said that she had ale ways called {tt "The Creat Une known", while Mr. Levie said he had usually referred to it as 'the fnvisible planet," Competent astrologers were Able, it was explained, to compen= sate by thelr intuition for lack ot knowledge of the undiscovered planet's location in the wky, but that the host of them were occas sionally embarrassed because the most conscientious guUEsNEs BOI. times wont wrong.
