Meet the Planets.
I know this is a lot of information– which is why the little double asterisks are reasonable stopping points. (I may cringe or gasp at my typos and run ons later- and will correct them, but in this moment want to publish and get things rolling.)
Starting out as amorphous, pure coherent potential of infinite power and endless possibility to become formed and unformed, G-d, our highest being of pure potential with Io, our ‘spear thrower’, instigates Creation/destruction with His breath (AKA words) into ongoing Boson’ limitlessness.
Call it what you want, maybe it was the “Big bang”, maybe he clapped His hands both creating vibration and sound.
As a result, blobs of quintessential sucking potential become delimited from the plasma’s mass- pulled out by intergalactic pressures, to emit wrathfully (wraith-like).
From the Sun ejects Mar’s spirit, emanated solar flare (soul’s flair). As Yod’s arrows travel with solar winds to hone in Gaia’s earth’s atmosphere goes exactly where magnetic potential leads it. Moving ions traveling in water vapor currents are electricity. Ions are magnetized into the poles to become Auroras. They are received as called. They vary by man’s habit of existence as well as the eclipses.

That Gaia, She’s fiery. Her energy moves like on high alert – with multiples of non-intra-communicative Creations called satellites banded by her highness ISS.
To Him, Gaia glows like sparkly diamond- besides being green and blue with scintillating gold touches of sunrise and setting.
Although these days while clouds seem thick in places, it’s like the fog is clearing. He can see Her ever better with all mankind praying. Visible now are hints of glory- bursting out all over by people in atoned meditations, sharing on the internet trips assisted with psychedelics – inspiring creations of all kinds beyond the useful and practical. From His vantage more and more spires of pure faith rise like towers of San Gimignano to shine their lights brightly.
He wonders: ‘why so focused on Me?’; Where went rest and play? Are both she and he not creator G-ds- here to create beauty with His hands using Her resources?
**
His rays of L’ove might be likened to rays of spirit landing on matter- diffracting, refracting and reflecting.
L’ove’s energy bands emit gradually from without form into specific. Forms emitting out of light with the appearance of direction[1].
We can think of them as hue and angels -later to become manifest as angles.
I think of His creations and evolution as ongoing – by those black hole x-ray emissions of pure energy.
As energy is neither created or destroyed but shifts and transforms -based on games (entanglements) and probabilities for singularity – experienced by those on the ground as ~catastrophic life events which suddenly stop time almost, let alone breathing.
That, once they happen, change it forever setting one’s heart self in a new direction- though psyche, unaware as she senses vibration, not thought, has no idea why everything has gone wrong and her needs aren’t met as the mind refocuses. Coming back into union, so as to continue to creatively manifest- stay “in the game”, leads to slow gradual unfolding. Each entity transform when they interact ‘meta-galactically’.
(Consider our discoveries in galactic universe mirror earth’s energies more yang realities- visible and measurable. The external expression of real world events, is reflected by the moon in relation to far outer planet transits-especially their parallel activity.
Usually yang – Sun/Jupiter/Mar’s influenced activities are easiest to demonstrate honoring ‘as above, so below’. This was exhaustively documented and researched by once-astrology-skeptic, Richard Tarnin in his book, “Cosmos and Psyche”.
But beyond our present awareness, and yet to come, are other amazing understandings- driven by further questions. These discoveries will be from nature and economic enrichment- more individual sources of commerce, as our priorities shift.
The glory of G-d’s light will brighten hu(e)-manity.
Such is the nature of man’s waking up.
As perceptions shift and improve – as we become more genuine, our Ascendant – self of personality, will brighten the countenance of others.
How does this look like for a typical hu(e)-man?
I’ll review in hu(e)-man’s terms – from both heart self (sun and fractal of G-d) and dense body (Saturn self) perspectives with a review of each energies necessary for a final creation. We are here to experience these changes in energy-and integrate them; luckily not all at once!
(That’s what transits and progressions do- unfold our life. The “how” depends on your breeding).
***
If planet were a French word, the homophone would be called planette – implying a mini-plan.
That is exactly what planets are – each a mini-plan of how a version of specific energy manifests/runs through one’s life. Each planet, by it’s hora being at the mercy of others, so to speak- faster ones triggering and releasing events. Io for example (Jupiter’s volcanic moon), then Moon and Mercury conceiving forms, with Saturn anchoring reality.
**
So here goes. For us hu(e)-mans, starting from the heart’s/sun’s perspective, the natal world, as in the ground of Gaia underneath where mom is birthing, is THE PERFECT ONE for our individual mission in life (not that we must stay – nonetheless, our creations quest will arise from our situation. They may be ‘most important’ on the globe where your MC was actually mid-day).
Just as “you are what you eat” specifics of where we draw first breath – using our vessel of body (our receptor ‘she’ of self), inform our path’s trajectory.
Our sun/heart breathes itself into being, exactly where most wanted (or not wanted). Our creation(s) most manifest in the locality we are born into- and where we may be most recalled as local hero (or villain).
**
While we are already perfect to do our mission, we need healers and teachers to educe and inspire us on our quest.
Depending on our individual “medicine” for the communities we live in, our medicine serves the highest and greatest good for all beings (including plants, animals, and me down to my tiptoes!).
Nonetheless, these energies need fine tuning. Some are expanded by our “teachers” depending on our schooling and life experiences; others are lessened by our “healers” -AKA “heelers”.
Healers are those who lead us as we heel to our karmic changes in wave state resulting from our choices and activities. Needing a healer can feel like hell as cause and effect truths impose- which they will- even if all is projection and we are each part of everyone else’s mystery!
**
As shard of ~infinite divinity and Oneness, our Sun heart, shines with the resonance of it’s given constellation- each constellation a version of stage of spiral path -which I’ll get to in another essay (Inshallah).
The Sun heart is more at ease in some constellations than others. When in particularly ‘unfamiliar territory’ it’s called being in detriment (de-tri-ment =away from its supernal trinity’s consciousness). The same goes for every planet (AKA plan-ette).
Our sun/heart fractal is enhanced and imbued by a fusion of the other planets’ energies over, around and within. Combined creates our being of manifest emanation. When “alive” and breathing, we are tangible hologram (and tangible to other manifest beings in 3D as apparent with senses).
With time and opportunity, our source of vitality and sovereignty- our sun, grows in courage (or can seemingly shrink) as it undertakes its missions. We grow with every event step-by-step.
Missions themselves change with time as fresh and opportune perspectives of what “whole” means. All is revealed when we are ‘ready’.
As G-d’s little fractal sitting in heart’s Corpus Christie, there is only a sensation of eternity existence which is never created nor destroyed. As there is no “time” in quantum space, we are our infinite selves in every moment, even if we are hidden and blocked by our ‘masks’ of personality (our Ascendant sign) and trappings of life. Even if we have transitioned- passed over to the “other side”, which is experienced as death in 3D, our entity of spirit persists.
Each fractal of the divine, is illuminated by energy of a heart’s mitochondria – regardless of being plant or animal.
Each creature is as infinite as any other and reincarnates until it’s mission is accomplished (to become whole pure coherent light white from the presence of all other colors in correct and balanced proportion). This includes your pets and plants.
Each being as such has ~equal essential potential in our “now”, even if its beginnings, initially dispersed and shielded from one’s inner majesty, so dimmed, seems a contradiction or barrier to G-d’s great “plan”.
When one is lead strongly by heart’s Sun –living without context with others- because while inspiring on their stage their audience is blocked by our spotlight, this can look like “arrogance” and “narcissism”. This trait is shared by all the fire signs.
When stuffed, living a life of constant response rather than as initiator, our Sun might think G-d is everywhere but within. In our confusion, we might live projected-believing only those who look like us in the mirror are of love’s essence. Then we might not treat those not seeming like one’s image, as kindly as we would our kin – our own kind.
**
Mercury –is intelligence of coherence of our being as conduit – our self’s vessel of communication which parses relativity (older, younger; richer, poorer). Mercury is our array maker – classifies and sorts makes status. With Mercury heart seeks answers to questions we might ask- coming from a sense of other and similarity. Mercury is a parsing and naming intelligence. (With Mercury we create more of what we want/ don’t want- by our vibrations we make with naming).
When Mercury is heated with Mar’s fiery passions or Sun’s projection, our surface educes to become shapes; as creatures we are ductile.
Responding to both sun’s fierceness of flaring plasma bursts and Moon’s gravitational tides, Mercury is our heart’s harnessing of hand’s dexterous intelligence to create and use tools. Whether spears, pens, or antennae– take your pick- depends on one’s upbringing and acculturated by our focus– our Moon self’s repertoire of responses (which are learned by exposure and extracted from our otherwise nascent DNA).
Mercury has a cool side – which can ALWAYS produce more- (as long as Sun is engaged- harnessing from the flow of opportunity – with life). This cool side, is a scape of chill is almost defiance- as if to show the Sun, the universe is just as important- even if it could benefit from a little warmth.
Mercury is sun’s instigator by being the messenger who tells- the exciting story. We (do not) l’ove our Saturnian masters – but until now believe we must trust in them – our fathers on whom we impose the task of rulership-while we persist in folly and youthful curiosities.
Mercury is f’eared by our fathers. He builds his antennae, he learns that he can have more clear play time, if he gets his homework done first. (Even if in reality, there are always Sisyphean chores – sometimes piling up!) he’s sense of freedom and fun, is thwarted by Saturn. Imbalanced or dissonant, Mercury looks like mental dysregulation anxious or nervous.
*
Our heart self is united to our Saturn self by Venus- our sensory body. With our senses we are activated. Nerves and hormones create responsive thoughts, plans, and actions- the four worlds of Kabbalah.
With Venus- our energy comes together in our physical corpus with senses of vision, touch, taste, smell, and hearing – as well as the inner ones. This results in our waveform’s values. We are what we l’ove- essentially. We know love and beauty when we see it.
Venus, is best described by qualities of 2nd (value and money) and 7th house ‘stages’- the latter relationships with those face to face with us. Flow (of love and money) is maximized for the participants, when trust is what binds- this reduces second-guessing which is really a waste of energy.
Seventh house is mystery of ‘other’. Venus represents Taurean attractions – our value, beauty and l’ove.
We can’t help but get a little sticky because of it as we try to control relationships and surrounding to hone to our image (when really everything is its own entity seeking its version of l’ove and freedom- and wants the world to hone to he/she/ or it!).
In Libra, Venus seeks deep sense of harmony in one’s surroundings. She wants at-one-ment. Her beauteous calm and balance affects everyone around her. As Venuses resonate two individuals, we see mutual beauty- in this case reinforcing each other. While over time, like dissolves like – with two equal and complementary energies, entities become amalgam at the same time. Each amalgam appreciated by the other – as pun.
When Venus is ‘mislead’ by another’s words, to whom she’s outsourced her power, she might not trust her own senses.
*
As we gain a sense of self, our Moon kicks in-she represents our “response” vessel. With our perception of our environments, both sensory and energetic, we respond with emotions. Our moon is our receptacle for stimuli- photons, sound waves, smell- and all that’s tactile. She is honed by our lineage – those around who condition us- and coded by our ever-responsive DNA-translated according to stimulation. With our consciousness of a situation, we decide then what we do with them.
Our moon-self learns. This learning usually begins around age 4. By then we’ve learned to manage most of our parents “nos”. By then too, one might experience the endless cold stillness of death – in one form or other. Understand good things might come to an end and the world in fact is not us! (little do we know it is really our projection).
Our Moon self is our conditioned emotional (hormonal) reaction body. With our hormones, we put energy into motion, but unless we do something, the energy goes nowhere and deepens psychic ruts.
The moon outside acts on our mostly water corporeal earth body- also affecting its tides (emotions). Our propensity for being sensitive depends on which moon sign we actually are – I’d predict fire and air moons might be more ‘volatile’; water phlegmatic and tearing, earth retiring.
Heightening responsiveness during waxing periods especially for those most relying on light with their eyes, such as at the full moon. So then is a particularly good time to be gentle on them! Perhaps reduce being on-line.
*
Mars is our force and power and drive for creation; the energies of Mars represent our passion and zest. Mars wants to “do”. Mars is our soma’s expressions of what we want and don’t – the “not”, is implied. Our Mars self activates especially in response to what our ears, retinae and foveas perceive, and nose smells and is our ‘doing’ self- usually setting muscles in motion.
Located deep in our reptilian brain, our head’s senses filter by amygdala- (our protector self’s sentries), to see l’ove and beauty, as well to save us from dangers perceived.
Yes, we get angry when blocked or threatened -by you guessed it, Saturn. Or might act our if startled by Uranus. Then it’s Saturn or Uranus dysregulated, not Mars. Mars, with Pluto adds fervent intensity.
Mars is ‘nurtured’ by visible opportunity as well another’s speech and conduct – especially by those who ‘keep’ us physically, mentally, emotionally, and/or spiritually entranced – instead of pursuing our heart’s romance -5th house from our sun sign. Ruler of Aries and exhalted in Capricorn, Mars like to be busy creating when not asserting self as leader.
Mars rules the 1st House- self and head, and 8th house of genital regions (a version of tangible legacy –valued by our ‘others’ as our expression of creational intelligence.
The strength and expression of our Mars is tempered by Saturn limits and mastery. While Jupiter’s truth and higher laws expands and brings opportunities. From our world of opportunity (at least that which in the 3D we are cognitively aware or know of), our senses seize upon that which we l’ove most- ideally guided by whatever helps us to feel and be our better self as we create using resources with our being- as well our actions, hands, and speech.
With Mars, you get to act out your f’ears and create karmic kinks- because you didn’t trust in G-d that is, and decided to ‘changing’ things – forcing your way – which is totally unnecessary.
*
Jupiter represents the principle of expansion and amplification (and “not). As expansion of one’s insights often leads to growth in our persona, most easily obtained by long travels, higher learning, dreams and visions, Jupiter traditionally is assigned rulership of 9th and 12th houses. Jupiter with its numerous moons in all different phases, one of which is the most volcanic structure in the entire solar system (Io)- sees and grabs opportunity. From Jupiter’s vantage, sees only multiple potentials and no limits. All can occur in time (but timing is Saturn’s ‘job’). Each moon’s illumination – is some version of possible truth. Thwarted/blocked by Saturn- Jupiter can seem puny, reckless, or unimaginative. Over-fired by Mars, Jupiter becomes plethoric.
*
Saturn is our builder, brick-and-mortar and/or wrought iron self. Saturn is time and measurable and tangible density. Where Saturn is in your chart describes how we create – and our tendencies in the process. How we are seen as we gradually form our boundaries- and mastery, built brick by brick or honed by fire. Saturn forms our shell(s). As such, Saturn embodies the principle of restriction- and active process of being held back and condensing.
With Saturn, we are bound as we hone to our cocoons of protective fortress- He is dense promise. (He really is where it’s at- if I wanted to ‘be’ any one of them – as archetypes- granted it’s cold and lonely at times.)
Saturn rules 10th house of status and reputation as well is 11thas traditional ruler of acquaintances, hopes, and wishes. So is most at home in Capricorn and Aquarius.
Saturn with its visor of dense ring, could think of it as a ray ban, sees all but the “important” picture; he can’t see (I’d say b’lind – I wouldn’t be wrong. Blind is B lin(e), – can’t see anything but an end in site- not any costs.) Saturn misses the focus. He can’t help it – is too busy- creating stuff of success.
AS planet with visor, doesn’t ‘see’ which goal Jupiter, with Io, is actually focused on– but arranges everything else around it protectively (just in case…).
As Saturn isn’t swayed much by sensations of relationship (Venus) or emotions (Moon) he is clear headed and calculating. Most prominent leaders have Saturn prominent- as well as Pluto. These are the folks we “put on call” to “make things right”, while we go out and party (Jupiter’s realm). By their natural tendencies to take on responsibility, they visibly prosper and naturally are our societies pillars.
When our Mars has oxidized to rust (passions are spent), by too much water (emotion) or air (change). Or when Jupiter’s joviality isn’t nurtured we become unbending and rigid. When Saturn is retrograde, we stop relying on our boundaries and limits – become susceptible to other forward planets.
**
Depending on exactly when our fractal lights up with our first breath, the day or the night, is on what we most add shine to. To be day or night birth is neither good-nor bad; both are equally sacred and necessary.
With day births, the Sun is the luminary; it is endlessly outgoing with the world as his stage. This is yang energy – and correlates to that partner with most outgoing nature, typically the father. From horary astrology (which describes relative natural expression of planets depending on their actual positions in a chart), during the day, the sun’s counterpart is Venus – beauty and relationship – which balances- Sun’s eternal bluster. Day births might experience their parents similarly.
For that reason, day birth children may experience a strong yang parent with the other, typically mother, as ‘beautiful’, balanced and soothed by her manifest wealth.
Don’t forget, initially we seem more our parents than any other ‘authority’ as we age. Mellowing comes later.
*
Night births are illuminated by the Moon – a reflective body and traditionally associated with our mother’s energy (and focus – which waxes and wanes). At night, father (Sun) energy is typically felt as absent- but as Her ideas of progress and success reign- and in what form, in the night birth, Saturn – as our force for contraction (and mastery), describes the experience of father.
With that one’s universe is lit up by another reflections – not their own light. These individual’s receive ‘attention’ by versions of comparison- subject to whims and changeability.
This is exactly like life in that a behavior in one situation or circumstance might be completely appropriate, but disruptive and chaotic in another. Sometimes as wave forms – we might not fit in at all – forcing us to go away from home in our mission’s quest to “find ourselves”.
*
As it is our Sun’s mission to ‘break out of our baby soul’s cocoon, we must expand, reintegrate and expand again- ripping open our realities, over and over – until we gain a ‘bigger picture’.
There’s so much to profited from as our sovereign (sun) self learns to tactfully negotiate every other sovereign self in their line of view (the 1st house/7th house axis)- physically and virtually (including on-line). (though the latter seems more distant – at the other end of the line or strangers on you monitor are (for the most part, until AI anyway), real.[3]
While G-d is ~endlessly (and ruthlessly) trying have our soul’s spirit become bigger and brighter- until our shells and ‘skin’ no longer contain us, throughout life, we personally evolve – breaking us from our shells and personal trappings of coexistence to heal (heel) into ourselves.
This is described very well by our “secondary” and “solar arc” progressions. Each energy form evolves according to the whole – when lead by our Sun self – this seems pretty fast, hence with solar progressions every progressed planet moves a full degree a year. When unbound by the sun, such as those who more fully are ‘Moon’ selves, for each year of progression a planet’s energies progress as much as they would in a day. For the sun, Venus, Mercury, this tends to be ~1 degree.
With ongoing transits to natal and progressed charts (both types) ‘man’ acts to change himself, his conditions, or, when living a reflected moon life, those of others on his terms- not necessarily as a collectives.[2]
As souls we grow as we work cooperatively- learning from each one. Tests continue until we complete our mission – then we transition to become spirit again and shed our corporate entity.
*
How do we do this evolution? With Chiron –he is our ‘key’ and ~major “Centaur” self. He represents our place of weakness and frailty. That which elicits our cries to “G-d” any power we believe in greater than ourselves. next 3 supernals (to Him and to Gaia); (cries come from heart – are heard ‘everywhere’ collectively.)
Chiron represents wounds we can’t heal – though we may try which requires us to enlist others. These others each represent possibility – in this case to feel better. These guides help us with shifts – know a canon of possible solutions – when you add them to what you’re usually doing.
As lessons help us -ultimately, we yield –consciously and usually with anguish and pain. Chiron revolves around the Sun in a highly elliptical orbit shaped like cross-section of egg. His orbit crosses into both Uranus (genius) and Saturn’s (forma and mastery)- tying these together.
Don’t forget in quantum realms, any orbit we measure in a snapshot of time actually is not real – the whole egg is energetically defined – we just see the smallest bit-the illusional planetary position is our point of access.
While Chiron, like all the outer planets, is shared by a generation- where he shows up in your chart, makes all the difference. Individually he aspects each of the personal planets differently-all of which progress. The specific house is the ‘stage’[4] where our ‘unhealable’ wound needs healing.
*
Going further out we have our ‘supernals’ Uranus, Neptune and Pluto – these energy forces can’t be seen or predicted without special telescopes-likewise they underpin our subconscious. We can’t directly access them – without a helper like DMT, or dreams. Then we see ~all at once – receive “ah ha(s)”! Out of context.
Each one with their version of infinite power – at least relative to earth-star self which barely, until now, manifests- our souls have been manifesting restriction – because of words and how we are cultured. While it is admirable to aim for a goal, allow for tangents and impasses – each one is there to shift our paths, even if imperceptibly.
Uranus- the “father” of Saturn, is our source of quirky genius- when applied correctly (using resources and tools, Mercury) we manifest. Sure he can be rebellious and revolutionary, but that’s because he’s bored or trying to be fitting in – classic square peg in round hole. In the mythology, Uranus is appropriately enough, “killed” by Saturn – (over) rigidity quashes ingenuity.
*
Neptune is limitlessness, a planet with world of boundless water(or so one might imagine- it looks so blue in the telescope)-water reaches to the horizon with no land to stand on. Neptune is said to have an atmosphere full of (rough) ‘diamonds’. Within each ‘diamond’ with its rough facets, is a version of our dream self – our highest and greatest being (as it serves the highest and greatest good for all people down to ones tiptoes).
Granted this wonderful being must be educed- lead from their inner heart’s cocoon, teased out, examined, and then utilized. This gem is there already though we must be open to our dreams- including those projected (by others), to ‘see’ it. Neptune is all things spiritual then but still as a fog of fractals- not organized yet. With Neptune we receive our threads to weave our personal magic carpets and prayer rugs- incorporating life’s threads.
*
Then there’s Pluto – lord of l’ove (and not l’ove)[5] – ruthlessly destroying anything blocking l’ove, to refine and transform, until our essence can be seen and shines. While he’s also with guardian of riches- when we are our ‘best’ selves, we are most creative – and valuable to others- which is measured tangibly. He’s the lord of power, big business, and corporations. He is completely comfortable in the underworld – is intense and secretive.
Pluto is also known by many names, as are all the planets, one of these “Hades”. And yes, he is ruthless and can be hateful. He though is bounded further by Ceres, Haumea, and Sedna to name just a few of the TNO trans-Neptunian planets. All of which get to “answer” to energies from the Galactic center(s)- our original source in the “Big Bang”.
*
Obviously, if one is a “fixed” king self- brought up to f’ear not being king, these changes are difficult. Change creates uncertainty – we must face an unknown or a problem that until now, hasn’t been solved. For these reasons, these planets are maligned by the rulers amongst us. Saturn and Mars are most difficult when oppressed or denied; they ‘act’ out whenever they can. Neptune can drown us with possilbilities -especially if we’re focused on hat-red[6] and f’ears whether by our own doing, including listening and reading or immediate forces outside us.
Further dimensions – if you consider the sun as the center of our solar system of self – think of it as you’re inner star – burnished by Uranus your genius, chosen and polished (with Mercury and Saturn) from one of Neptune’s many facets.
*
Magi astrology focuses on nature of our strengths both within and as linkages with others and midpoints between players. A natal chart will have several grouped associations. Unless between supernals, Chiron (charisma- our struggles with wounds attracts others to us) and Jupiter. These associations tend to shift as our personal planets progress.
These strengths are natural and easy to do; they may be obvious to our teachers and parents. They are described by our conjunctions and parallels- when two planets line up – either horizontally or vertically, trines (at a not-to-far-nor-near distance of ease 120 degrees) or inconjuncts, especially retrograde when two planets are ‘rushing to meet each other’ from being otherwise completely unknown[7]. These aspects enhance us like the outlines of character. We will manifest ourselves, with or without astrology!
For example, an individual’s predilection for fame is seen when Uranus is enhancing a personal planet. Enhanced Uranus is associated with those most famous (and infamous). Pluto brings us power. Neptune brings ~boundlessness and longevity. Most world leaders have at least 2 or 3 of particularly well aspected linkages and enhancements.
Aspects between Jupiter and supernals with our personal planets and Chiron are most important. Parallels, are the strongest linkages as they progress most slowly. These aspects form our inner basis – we evolve from there- carrying these energies along for our lived life (and beyond too in one’s astrologic chart).
*
In Uranian astrology – as a practice, it focuses on how ones life will be changed and energized; it focuses on conjunctions, squares and oppositions- especially between Uranus and the outer planets–with our inner ones (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, and Mars). These aspects respectively describe the experience of soul’s energetic merging, distractions/obstacles, and conflicts/challenges. All instances energize a heart to get us out of a rut and help shift us.
***
Another important aspect of the chart is how we are focused as a breathing being. For that we need consider the Moon’s nodes – also known as our Dragon’s nodes- actually where the moon’s path crosses the earth’s path of orbit[8]. The North node is the Dragon’s head – it is what this soul in this lifetime aspires to which, starting out as a kid, is completely unknown – and usually quite different from our familial realms. The South node is the Dragon’s tail – it represents our given tools to be used in this lifetime- those which we’ve embodied from our lineage. In the chart this is where our energy is dense- and we need ‘shed’ the most. (In time we learn we can shift their application of our tools such that we craft leaving little else but footsteps.)
***
Furthering that focus is how we are ‘nailed’ to the cross of life. Our MC/IC and ASC/DSC.
Our MC/IC axis could be considered our ‘judges’ (with their wishes) versus our personal sense of home. Traditionally the MC is the mother – the ruler of the MC describes her as well our reputation; the ease of the planet ruling the cusp, describes the ease in your relationship – adding the energy of any planets in the tenth house.
The IC is of the father – the one who provides and cares for the nest with mother is unable (she’s too busy bearing and caring). He’s the bottom line and our root. In sixty-degree sextile to our 2nd house, from him we are allowed opportunity to be valuable. The IC is our roots and our home environment as experienced by one’s inner corpus.
IF these associations aren’t clear in life, don’t worry- they won’t be “clear” in your chart! Clarifying such situations is part of your medicine- and your particular magic you will need as you embody your journey.
*
The ASC/DSC axis is that of our personality and how we experience other’s in life (as well, our projections of ourself). Our personality is a reflection of the degree on the ASC or first house cusp, and the ruler of the sign on the cusp. It is not the ruler of the chart – unless it is in the same house. That would be its dispositor(s)- those who influence the cusp of the house where the ruling planet is situated.
*
If the planets are in houses where they are favored (called dignity according to being in sign, term, or face) – their effects are supported. Otherwise they’re in a tougher game – but one that must be played!
Astrologers until now have referred to these as being in “detriment” and “fall”. I’m still working on how to rephrase. I have both Mercury and Uranus in detriment, the former in fall as well. They are far away from being in easy service. With Mercury in Pisces, my communications are (very) abstract and difficult to understand. Mercury likes to talk; the sign of Pisces is mute. Clearly one must find a new work around – again this is part of our unique (and wonderful) medicine. Uranus is our innovator; it’s hard to be that and steady king self! And yet that is what is called for.
While we might have started out with planets above and below the horizon, unless one has a splay chart where all the planets are kind of evenly spaced out, often there will be one portion of the ‘sky’ that is most open (and unknown). AS our perception shifts from sunrise and sunset, the first planet that rises from that gap – is the leading planet. The slowest planets tend lead the longest – broken up only by the monthly moon and yearly transits of personal planets.
Not unsurprisingly, as a global culture, we’ve experienced Pluto as being the “leader” for quite some time now. He’s been busy destroying trojans and icons in case you haven’t noticed.
Here I’ll stop to maybe later add on.
[1] Rays aren’t directed but are light cracking through veil of darkness and amorphous matter. This light, or energy, is always there, but we are might perceive it – with our blinders of limitations and f’ears. What gets through is filtered and dimmed. When filtered perception is narrowed to bands – leaving other energy and light unknown. Really they are layers of different forces which simultaneously manifest density.
[2]G-d is our highest being of pure light potential – and ‘spear thrower’-endlessly trying have our souls be bigger and brighter- by definition, breaking us out of our shells and personal coexistences-freeing us from ‘destructive’ -non-affirming processes (even if that means “death” on the earth plane). We are each in the palm of G-d’s hand.
[3] AI generated reality is a black box putting together, by associations planted in its “head”, by players living in a version of 3D. They learn by patterns and context. To outwit them, use a symbol out of typical context. Their analysis is limited to photons they can measure and other versions of byte (pronounced “bite” quite accurately). They have NO concept of miracle. No real understanding of why hu(e)-man’s congregate – just that they do. Sure they may link activities to a demographic measured in terms of monies, but as we know, then adds unpredictability
[4] Each house is a stage:
[5] L’ove = of our (orphic) egg. Our spirit dances atop a ‘basket’ and nest of ideas, thoughts, and actions-material and immaterial entities of consciousness of what it is we cultivate and hone. And by our actions, create more of. Some of these entities are well formed; others are still nescient. They may only be known symbolically. As we experience life breath by breath- which we might measure as time, some entities are more relevant than others. Some might ‘need’ their space for a while; others might leave. This is a result of our spirit shifting and growing greater- it strives for generous inclusivity. As conscious beings, we can best l’ove ourselves – another can’t do this. When we let others care for us IN THEIR WAY, we are honing to THEIR ideals. This is inauthentic- and we’ll need to unravel from them as we mature. While we are interwoven – we are in a state of confusion (con- fusion, being fused together).
[6] Hat-red, until now equated with not l’ove, is when one person draws attention to oneself at the expense of all others to declare they and only they, are in the right of way. When you wear a red hat- you’re visible from all over. Everything else is, for them, irrelevant or nonexistent (and they are happy if you disappear). Ha t red- with Ha (Got the breath of G-d with Aleph and Ayin, and used the opportunity (Heh’s window when open) to pour one’s energy out (Resh) and over another whenever they perceive change and taking all Dalet’s opportunities. May it be so we one day learn how much further we can go, when we share with each other! For now, don’t tangle with those who wear them- (but be there for them when their idols are fallen; it’s ok to sit and listen silently).
[7] Inconjuncts are 150 degrees. This is when planets are in unlike modes (cardinal, fixed, or bridging/mutable) and elements (fire, earth, air, water). When combined like this, feels like being on a steep learning curve – everything is unknown new and different about the other ‘force’.
[8] Avoiding technicalities, the earth progresses around the sun in a stable path; so does the Moon around the earth – but at a slight angle. Where the paths intercept is when we have eclipses. This is when Sun or Moon seems blacked out temporarily- leaving everything else to shine which normally might be hidden.
