Severine,

  I'm sorry I can't help you in regard to tactile maps of the Solar System
or the night sky.  But I'd like to mention in this connection that
astronomers have in recent years found that most of the matter in the
universe is dark, and so maps of the visible matter reveal only an
infinitesimal part of what exerts most of the celestial forces upon us
Earthlings.

  Thus, astrologers have been basing their horoscopes on relatively
unimportant influences, and the field is wide open to new approaches that
take into account heavenly bodies of which the ancients knew nothing at all.

  I wish you every success in such an endeabor.
