Angular Velocity
Definition
Angular velocity is the amount of angular distance a celestial body moves during a specified period. In astrology, it is commonly expressed as a planet’s daily motion in degrees and minutes of arc.
Astrological Meaning
Planetary speed helps determine whether an aspect is applying or separating and whether a planet is moving faster or slower than usual. Traditional astrologers often treated unusually fast motion as a sign of greater readiness, while slow motion could indicate delay or reduced momentum.
Why It Matters
Angular velocity is essential for predictive work, aspect timing, retrograde analysis, and the interpretation of planetary condition. It connects the symbolic chart with the actual movement of bodies through the sky.
