Moon phase method
There are Sun and Moon positions at birth time of a woman

This is a day in September 2005 when the Moon phase is exact the same as at day of birth - a day of maximum fertility.

The three rules are:
- The time of a woman's fertility depends on the recurrence of the angle of the sun and the moon that occurred at the woman's own birth.
- The sex of the child depends on the position of the moon at conception.
- Certain planetary configurations at the time of conception can effect the viability of the embryo.
So, how does this most natural, precise, and chemical-free form of contra/or con/ception work? The key is in understanding rule number 1. Quite simply, if a woman were born, for example, during a New Moon, she would be fertile
during the New Moon each month. If she were born with the Sun and Moon at a 60-degree angle, as occurs five days after the New Moon, she would become fertile when the Sun and Moon were at a 60-degree angle each month and for a period
either side of this peak period regardless of her menstrual cycle. To find out where the Sun and Moon were at your moment of birth, you'll need to give an astrologer precise information as to the date, time and place of birth and ask
for a chart that tells you the angle.
Under Jonas system, a woman enters her cosmofertility period two days prior to the recurrence of the sun/lunar return. So, if she is using this method as a means of contraception, she should practice abstinence (or some other form
of birth control) 36 hours before and 12 hours after the angle passes. Francesca Naish, an Australian astrologer specializing in finding conception dates, suggests adding safety margins for possible error, egg and sperm life. (see
diagram). The results are a 4-day lunar interval that repeats once per lunar month, or every 29-1/2 days.
Ovulation based on the hormonal changes of the menstrual cycle can be effected by the moon as well as by stress,
health and other factors. The moon cycle, on the other hand, is a constant, recurring 12 to 13 times a year. Unless the
fertile period of the menstrual cycle happens to coincide with the lunar cycle, a woman will have two fertility periods
a month which she can take advantage of or avoid. When both cycles are observed, Dr. Kurt Rechnitz, who expanded upon
Jonas work, claims 98% infallibility. He suggests for 100% accuracy to confirm results by taking the basal temperature.
Australian Astrologer Francesca Naish insists that if the two cycles do not coincide that the lunar cycle remains a potential only of an egg being
released. Nevertheless, as far as contraception goes, she insists that it is essential to abstain during the period of
the lunar return. Of these three rules, the second is by far the easiest to determine from an astrological point of
view. Simply stated, conception at the moment when the Moon is in a so-called masculine or yang sign (fire & air) will
result in a boy, whereas conception at the moment that the Moon is in a feminine or yin sign (earth & water) will give
you a girl. The Moon changes signs approximately every 2-1/2 days. Matching up the lunar cycle (rule number one) with
the desired moon sign to insure conception can take several months. Astrological calendars, indicating exactly at what
moment the Moon enters a new sign, are a popular item in esoteric bookshops and even in some of the bigger chains such
as B. Dalton. Preferably the moon should not be cuspal, moving from one sign unto another, for this method to work. Dr.
Balogh, a Hungarian Egyptologist, claims that Jonas took his theory from the ancient Egyptians, contending the theory is
at least 5,000 years old.
We know Jonas sex selection method works, but nobody really knows why it works. Naish speculates that the earth's magnetic field is affected by the phases of the Moon that in turn becomes a factor in the separating of male and female
chromosome-carrying sperm. E.R. Schweigert, quoted in Astrological Birth Control by Sheila Ostrander and Lynn Schroeder, the authors who originally brought Jonas work to the attention of the West, claims using the Moon Sign selection with 98% success. He believes that as the moon passes through the different signs of the zodiac, the acidity or alkalinity of the womb is effecting the sedimentation of the sperm.
H.L. Cornell, in his Medical Encyclopedia of Astrology, a must for anyone interested in medical astrology, writes: A Star Map of the Heavens is very important to study in helping to know the character and temperament of a person, and
also to diagnose diseases which are not especially shown or evident in the map of birth. Using astrological calculations, I knew the exact date of all four of my children's births contrary to the date given me by the doctor!
Jonas research and his battle for recognition is a story in itself. When he first arrived at his initial thesis,
Jonas mailed his data, case histories and conclusions to the Hungarian Academy of Science and the Czech Academy. At this
point he was encouraged to continue his research. He continued his research on his own but lacked funding. In 1960, Dr.
Aurel Hudcovic suggested he come and prove his theories at the Bratislava Clinic of Gynecology.At the Clinic he once
more compared his data with the actual sex resulting from the pregnant women at a Maternity Ward in Nitra, He was proved
correct in predicting the sex of the child in 83 out of 100 cases. Further refinement of the cosmic correlations
resulted in 98% accuracy!
