Key Planet
The planet or luminary immediately after the prenatal eclipse in the natal figure (as counted forward through the signs, anti-clockwise in the figure) is termed the key planet and is said to indicate facets of the immediately preceding incarnation that bear karmically upon the present one.
The key planet is also considered by aspects, especially those to the PE, LE and IE, and by its distance from the PE. Aspects to any planets in the figure show connections between the current and previous incarnations. Inharmonious aspects are said to indicate karmic problems whose resolution in the previous incarnation was incomplete and ineffective, calling thus for renewed and more effectual attention in the present lifetime
THe separation between the key planet and PE in degrees arc is said to indicate the amount of time that elapsed between the previous decease and the birth, at the rate of one year per degree, or six days and two hours per minute. It is speculated that a very rapid reincarnation is testimony to the ill-preparedness of the individual for death when it struck, sometimes indicating accidental or violent death.

The sign and house placement of the key planet hold clues to the cause of death at the close of the previous life. Afflictions to the key planet from malefics that are either posited in or Lord of the Eighth House can indicate sudden death (if Uranus is involved) or death mediated through accident (if Mars), suicide (if Neptune), or criminal violence (if Pluto). Harmonious aspects from the key planet to planets that are posited in or Lord of the Eighth House indicate a relatively peaceful death for which the individual was well-prepared.
The sex of the key planet (with Moon, Venus, Neptune and Pluto considered female; Sun, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus male; and Mercury the gender of the sign in which it is placed) has been suggested to indicate the individual's gender in the previous incarnation, although on statistical analysis this doesn't work out too well since the balance of babies born is not weighted so strongly in masculine favour as the distribution of male and female planets suggests.
The key planet, by its general nature and sign and house placement and aspects, is also a significator of the personality and position in the previous incarnation.
Prenatal Solar Eclipse in 8th House
出生前日食发生在本命的第8宫
(Rose Lineman)
Posited in the eighth house, an Esoteric and Succedent house, a prenatal eclipse carries a most significant karmic message. This house deals with physical death, the afterlife and rebirth. Therefore, what one does in terms of prenatal eclipse directives is of utmost importance, for the eighth house links the past, present and future. This position can be a precarious one. In a sense, it represents a testing ground for karmic gains acquired in the past. Plutonian temperaments are available to the individual as well as the resources represented by the higher form of Plutonian and eighth house expression. No doubt, with a prenatal eclipse in the eighth house, one will be tempted by perverse sexual urges or misuse of corporate or jointly owned funds, or lured into criminal activities. A sense of power accompanies an eighth house prenatal eclipse; and it is up to the individual to direct this power into spiritually correct avenues, to pass the spiritual test.
When one's prenatal eclipse reaches the eighth house, it indicates that the soul has reached a critical point in spiritual evolution. A higher plane has definitely been attained, but it is up to the individual to attain spiritual growth and not fall prey to earthly temptations that would cause a backward slide on the karmic wheel.
If the karmic test is failed, one must repeat past learning experiences until correct spiritual attitudes are so deeply ingrained that potential setbacks are thwarted and karmic progress is assured.

intersects the ecliptic, or plane through which the Earth orbits the Sun, thereby providing a necessary condition of geometric alignment for an eclipse to occur. Each Saros series manifests as at least two North Node eclipses, marked N in the prenatal eclipse table linked below, and at least two South Node eclipses, marked S.
Finding the prenatal eclipse 找到PRENATAL ECLIPSE的方法
Use the accompanying table here for births between 1940 and 1999. The last solar eclipse in the table below to have begun before your moment of birth is your prenatal eclipse (PE). The accompanying lunar eclipse(s) (LE), as defined below, are valid whether they occur before or after birth.
In natal interpretation, the prenatal eclipse (marked PE on a figure) is considered together with the initial eclipse of its series (marked IE), as shown in the table below; and with any lunar eclipses that occur a couple of weeks before or after the prenatal eclipse (there is always at least one, and occasionally two), which always occur at the opposite lunar node from the prenatal eclipse, and are known as accompanying lunar eclipses (marked LE). Also considered is the key planet, as explained below.
The PE is interpreted in the nativity with reference to its sign and house placement, and aspects, using the same orbs as are used for any planet for the type of aspect concerned. Its sign placement shows the common interests and causes of the PE generation; and the gift of awareness that the generation is responsible for sharing with the collective. But on a personal level it will be more strongly expressed where there is found an angle or a strong planet or multiple planets in the same sign; and the positive and negative sign potentials will be brought out by harmonious and inharmonious aspects to the PE in the figure. [The domicile rulers of the decan and dwad sign colorations further colour the sign influence.] Its sign element shows characteristics of personality that have been insufficiently developed (or misused) in previous incarnations, and therefore require personal focus in the current life; and also indicates a suitable manner for the resolution of karmic problems, but this will require adjustment if it conflicts with the overall elemental balance of the nativity.
Its house placement describes activities and relationships that teach karmic lessons, produce karmic progress, and can be used to work out karmic situations and resolve karmic debts. Its aspects link the general potentials of the PE as indicated by its sign and house placement to problems (shown by inharmonious aspects) and resolutions (shown by harmonious ones), taking into consideration the general nature and placement of each aspected planet. Harmonious aspects act as channels to spiritual growth, while inharmonious ones tend to inhibit it, requiring effort for this blockage to be overcome.
In karmic astrology, quincunxes are considered to qualify as major aspects, and are accorded special significance as indicators of a disposition to repeat karmic errors, the resolution of which inclination requires individual effort.
The dispositor of the PE (the almuten of its sign and degree placement) sheds further light, by its sign and house position in the figure, upon the karmic resources and situations that will manifest in the life.
Total solar eclipses show a need for initiative and hard work in order to utilise the potential of the PE. Annular solar eclipses bring an innate consciousness that assists in the realisation of how to make the most of karmic assets, although not directly opening the way to them. Partial solar eclipses bring not only awareness of but also easy access to the situations and relationships in life that serve as karmic assets.

North Node solar eclipses indicate an evolutionary state characterised by relative ease of access to spiritual enlightenment, and freedom from negative preconceptions that may have prevented karmic progress in previous incarnations. South Node solar eclipses indicate the inheritance from previous incarnations of deeply ingrained negative biases that inhibit spiritual development, which, until the individually consciously overcomes them, will be inclined to prevent the resolution of karmic problems.
