If the ascendant is in a common (mutable) sign the chart remains valid for six months, and the Sun's ingress into Libra should be used for the remaining half of the year. A general rule in traditional astrology is that if the ascendant of the ingress chart is in a moveable (cardinal) sign the chart remains valid for three months only, and it is necessary to draw further charts for the Sun's entry into Cancer, Libra and Capricorn. The chart of the Aries ingress is drawn for the moment that the Sun enters the very first minute of that sign, which is the beginning of a new cycle for the Sun. The word ingress comes from the Latin ingressus, to 'go in' or 'enter'. With the Sun's entry into Aries imminent, now is the time to consider the potential of the ingress for 2004. Among these, ingresses have a traditional reputation as the most important mundane event. The affairs of a nation can be judged from the horoscope set up at the time of its official inauguration, the birth chart of its leader, and various phenomena such as eclipses, lunations, great conjunctions, stations, comets and ingresses. Mundane astrology, the study of heavenly cycles upon groups and nations is the most ancient branch of astrology. William Ramesey, Astrology Restored, 1653
