" This Correction is to be performed in a plan [very] close from the Ecliptic. "
More accurately, this correction is to be performed in a plan very close from the one containing the following 3 points : Venus Center, Sun Center and Earth Center (and even more accurately such 3rd point should be "Observer's position" instead of "Earth Center").
