III. “Leaping” or “Darting” Formula (attributed to FIRE)
Unlike the “Looped” or “Flying” formula and the “Direct” or “Creeping” formula, this formula
deals with one of the four triangles that can be extrapolated from the base-12 system of the
Zodiac. Here, the triplicity connects the signs Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn on the Zodiac round
below. It should be duly noted that each such “triplicity” connecting signs on the Zodiac round
also implies the triplicity of its contrapositive elemental force, where the mid-signs opposite the
connected signs apply, as the mid-points of the legs between the points of the triangle. Those
given as “opposite” the “EARTH” triune, represented here as “footed,” are thus Scorpio, Cancer
and Pisces, or the so-called triune of “WATER,” here depicted as “winged.” Again, note the
opposite direction of progression for the signs “above” and those “below.”
