For the
"Portuguese claim possession, 1500" chart: Campion,
"The Book of World Horoscopes," p. 99, citing astrologer
Antonio Harres; chart corrected to Porto Seguro longitude / latitude.
Additional information: "In 1494, the Treaty of Tordesilhas
divided the Americas between Spain and Portugal. Portugal gained
the right to claim land in what is now eastern Brazil. Portugal
claimed possession of Brazil on April 22, 1500, when the Portuguese
fleet commander Pedro Alvares Cabral landed on the coast. The
Portuguese called certain trees that they found there brazilwoods
because their wood had the color of a glowing ember, called brasa
in Portuguese. They named the country after the trees." World
Book Encyclopedia, CD-Rom edition, 1997.
"Brazilian
independence was proclaimed by Emperor D. Pedro I in Sao Paulo,
Brazil. The event came to be known as the 'Ipiranga cry,' because
it took place near the Iparanga River on Sept 7, 1822, between
16:00 and 17:00 (LMT) in Sao Paulo." Brazilian astrologer Nilsa
Gorey, private correspondence, 23 August 2000.
"Brazil
proclaimed its independence from Portugal [...] on 7 September
1822. The event ... took place between 4:00 and 5:00 P.M. LMT
..." Campion,
"The Book of World Horoscopes," (Second Edition, 1996),
p. 99.
There
is a strong movement among Brazilian astrologers in favor of a
4:47 P.M. time for this chart. This is based on historic accounts
of the whereabouts of the emperor on that particular day, the
time he arrived at Ipiranga river, etc., and is supported by the
feeling shared by many local astrologers that Brazil is more likely
to be portrayed by a Pisces ascendant rather than by an Aquarius
ascendant.
Source for the
"Proclamation of the Republic Chart" (Nov 15, 1889;
Rio de Janeiro; 3:00 P.M): Edgar Carone, "A Republica Velha (Evolucao
Politica)." Editora Difel, 1971, p. 8. The new government (the
result of a coup d'etat) was inaugurated at 11:00 A.M. at Rio
de Janeiro (then the capital), and the proclamation took place
at 3:00 P.M. The second chart features an Aries ascendant:
perhaps a fitting portrait of the military coup. Although Brazil
has had several constitutions, this event totally changed the
form of government; formerly it was an empire, and now it became
a republic, with elections, etc. (Again, thanks
to Nilsa Gorey for passing along all the above information.)
"On
5 October 1988 Brazil adapted a new constitution which represented
a significant break from past procedure and practice. The signing
of the constitution, which took place at 3:49 P.M., was timed
from a live television broadcast by Antonio Harres in Rio de Janeiro."
Campion, "The
Book of World Horoscopes," (Second Edition, 1996), p. 99.
Chart is set for the capital, Brasilia.
