The place
Mount Shasta
Mount Shasta offers a high, clear northern horizon and a strong visual relationship between mountain, atmosphere and sky.
Coordinates: 41.4092° N, 122.1946° W
How AUBREY 56 uses the place
The horizon changes.
The app uses the mountain’s coordinates as a viewing location. The Gate remains determined by the Sun and Moon, while the horizon gives the moment its local face.
The 56-Gate equation remains the meeting of seven solar states and eight lunar phases. The place changes the local sky, time, horizon and visual atmosphere—not the conceptual instrument.
The epistemic boundary
Astronomy is calculated. Meaning is invited.
AUBREY 56 distinguishes local astronomical calculation from historical interpretation. It does not claim that Mount Shasta was created for the app’s 56-Gate system, nor does it turn debated alignments into established fact.
