the raising of natal charts/figures Explanation: Después de leer algunos artículos, llegué a la conclusión de que *levantar figura* se refiere a la creación de la carta astral/natal de un individuo. Referencias: http://enciclopedia_universal.esacademic.com/210944 alzar o levantar figura ► locución OCULTISMO Formar plantilla, tema o diseño en los que se delinean las casas celestes y los lugares de los planetas, y lo demás que lleva a establecer el horóscopo o pronóstico de lo que sucederá de una persona. http://biblio.juridicas.unam.mx/libros/8/3654/14.pdf Cabe destacar que *levantar figura* en aquel siglo XVII, significaba hacer cartas astrales y leer el horóscopo o signo zodiacal. Descripción de *cómo se levanta figura* https://books.google.com.ar/books?id=AEOLjBhr_bQC&pg=PA87&lp... http://www.2iceshs.cyfronet.pl/2ICESHS_Proceedings/Chapter_2... *In 1608 the Court of Catalonia prosecuted don Novello de Sentelles, who was 28 years old and originally from England. He was caught because the Inquisition was told that 'he raised natal charts for many people and he divines the events and fortunes that they would have, and that he was a big mathematician.'* *... that he used to raise natal charts and that he made “judgements”, that is, prognostications.* *...used to raise natal figures and make prognostications on the future things and on past and occult things, and on what person of a marriage would die the first, and on robberies.* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natal_chart In astrology, a natal chart is a stylized map of the universe with the "native" (the individual or subject or anything Created or Built to be studied) at the center. It is calculated for the exact time and location of the native's birth for the purposes of gaining insight into the native's personality and potential. https://books.google.com.ar/books?id=mJya9d9A3KkC&pg=PA56&lp... *...levantar [is] an astrological term that prescribes the influence of the planets and stars on man's character.* In this book they mentioned it as *to raise up a figure*.
