The luminaries were what traditional astrologers called the two astrological "planets" which were the brightest and most important objects in the heavens, that is,the Sun and the Moon The Sun and Moon were well-established rulers of the other planets, in accordance with the ancient doctrine of astrology of sect, which made the Sun the ruler of charts of events and individuals born in the daytime, when the Sun was over the horizon; and the Moon the ruler of night charts, when the Sun was below the horizon.
