equator The plane perpendicular to Earth's polar axis, which divides Earth into two hemispheres, north and south. The extension of this plane into space forms the celestial equator.
Equator. The circle that lies midway between the poles of the earth, dividing it into two hemispheres - North and South. Also the projection of the Earth's equator upon the celestial sphere - sometimes called the equinoctial circle.
Equator:
The earth's equator is an imaginary line in a plane at right angles to the axis of the earth, and midway between the North and South poles. It divides the earth into two hemispheres, the Northern and Southern.
At the Equator, all of the heavens rise up from the eastern horizon, pass over the North/South Meridian and then set. In any 24-hour period, all of the sky might be observed, but only half of it is visible at any one moment.

The celestial equator is a great circle of the celestial sphere marked out by indefinite extension of the plane of terrestrial equator.
The celestial equator is the plane of the earth's equator extended into space. The zodiac belt begins at 0 degrees Aries which is the point where the Sun's path intersects with the celestial equator at the March Equinox each year.
The celestial equator is divided into twelve, and these divisions are projected on to the ecliptic along great circles that take in the north and south points on the horizon.
East Point: The equatorial Ascendant; i.e., the sign and degree rising over the eastern horizon at Earth's equator at any given time; the point at which Earth's equator intersects the ecliptic.

Declination: in the equatorial coordinate system, the angle that an object is above or below the Earth's equator projected on the celestial sphere. This coordinate corresponds to latitude on the Earth.

EQUATOR: The imaginary line drawn around the Earth, dividing it into the northern and southern hemispheres. When this line is extended into space, it is called the celestial equator.
Declination The distance in degrees from the Equator, north or south. The celestial equivalent of lattitude.
Equator The circle around the middle of the Earth dividing the northern and southern hemispheres.
Parallel : An aspect formed when two planets are in the same declination, that is, when they are the same distance north or south of the celestial equator. Generally considered to operate much like the conjunction.
5º to the ecliptic plane, its equator, being perpendicular to its polar axis, is also tilted at a constant angle to the ecliptic.

Equinoxes represent the two points of intersection of the Ecliptic and the Celestial Equator. Sun transits over them when day and night are equal. These points slowly move backward. This is known as precision of equinoxes.
After September 21 , when the Sun crosses 0 Libra and the equator, the declination will be South. And the Sun's declination will continue to increase in south declination until it reaches 0 Capricorn, December 21, and the winter solstice.
The earth is not a perfect sphere, but flattens out at the poles and bulges at the equator.
Looking at Declinations, they go from 0 degrees (Equator) to 23.26 degrees, the height of the Sun (North is Tropic of Cancer, South is Tropic of Capricorn).
Declination : A measure of how far north or south of the celestial equator a planet or other body is. Descendent : The intersection of the ecliptic and the western horizon.
We now realize that the sun is rotating with a period of around 30 days and that this causes the sun to bulge at the equator, which causes a torque to be exerted on the top like motion of the earth's day and night cycle. There is also a small 18.
the projection plane is the local horizon rather than the celestial equator). This quadrant was originally published by Richard Delamaine (Delamain) in 1631.
At 0 degrees Aries the Sun crosses the equator on its way North, changing from the Southern hemisphere to the Northern hemisphere. At 0 degrees Cancer the Sun changes from moving North to moving South.
Tasritu (Tishri), the 7th lunar month of the Autumn equinox (a month of ceremonies of death in almost every part of the world north of the equator) was associated with the building of the Tower of Babel (a ziggurat surmounted by an altar).
This Precession is due to the gravitational effects of the Sun and Moon on the Earth¹s equatorial bulge.
In the 11th century CE the astrolabe was introduced to Europe[2] as well as the equatorium, facilitating the calculation of planetary positions.
The Mangosteen tree requires a warm, very humid, equatorial climate all year round.
Depending upon how far from the equator an individual was born, some Houses may have smaller or larger arcs than others in a particular horoscope chart.
Because of the Earth's tilt and its resulting slow wobble, the intersection of the equator and ecliptic go back slightly in degrees each year. The result is that the actual point of intersection is moving backwards through the Zodiac.
If one stands on the equator of the earth and looks towards the sky they will see a half circle (half the zodiac). As the earth rotates the observer standing at the same point will see the other half of the zodiac.
Vernal Equinox: The intersection of the celestial equator with the ecliptic plane each solar year at 0º Aries. The Sun crosses the celestial equator moving from north to south.

Declination: The arc of measurement in degrees north or south of the celestial equator.
Degree: A degree is 1/360 of a circle. In Astrology, degrees are the commonly-used unit of measurement.
7 and a degree closer to the equator it would have been 16 50.3. The difference of arc is 25.4'. Find the Excess latitude ie. 39' in the left hand column; go to the intersection for the column headed 25' - read 16'. Add 16' to 17 22.

When the moon is closer to the earth it can create a total solar eclipse but when it is further away, its shadow isn’t as big and the eclipse is partial. When an eclipse occurs far away from the equator, it cannot be total either.
