Lord of the Geniture (Lilly)

The calculation is based on the method described by William Lilly in “Christian Astrology”.

The Lord of the Geniture is the strongest planet based on the sum of accidental and essential dignities. In the event of a tie in points, the planet closest to the MC is chosen. Aspects to the Ascendant are calculated the standard way (half-sum of orbs), rather than using platick aspects as explained in “Christian Astrology”.
