The equatorial ascendant, Koch's and Munkasey's co-ascendants and
Munkasey's polar ascendant (Swiss Ephemeris's ascmc[4] to ascmc[7]).
Each is the ecliptic point of an oblique ascension under a pole, taken as
the formula gives it: inside the polar circle (and, for Munkasey's
co-ascendant, within 90° − ε of the equator) it can lie west of the
meridian, and it is not turned east as the ascendant is.
