Astrology
A breif introduktion to Astrology
And my aprotch to the subject
I have kept astrology alive within me for most of my life and spent time studying it from many angles. Perhaps just a reflection on a particular individual's zodiac sign and how I perceived the person. So I make daily new observations of it and learn from my experiences and skills in this way my library of knowledge and experiences grows and grows both practically and metaphysically from this very exciting and ancient art form It feels like reaching your soul up to the mystery of the starry world which it truly is I have experienced from the assignments I have as a practicing astrologer from patients who have asked me if I can set their horoscopes
In the temple complex at Delphi, which was a centrer of the mystery cult in ancient Greece, the inscription at the entrance read "Know Thyself" as an invitation to search the depths of the person passing through its gate. And so we would gain a greater understanding in all directions of our complex nature. That
we should not be blind to our own shadow, but know the universe and the various
forces that govern us, and are our allies through life. This applies not least to cosmic wisdom. So astrology is one of the tools that make this strange journey more understandable and possible.
strange journey more understandable and possible and to make peace with ourselves.
My fascination with astrology stems from the fact that it is such a good tool for self-knowledge to get to know yourself and others. But this has not been the case historically as once upon a time
astrology was both highly regarded and a way to integrate our imagination with the cosmos.
The human race has always looked up to the starry world and infinite space to feel that there is a connection between life here on Earth and the passage of the planets and stars had something more than their beauty and appeal.
The Moon has always been seen spreading its magical splendor but also its actual impact on life and the elements here on Earth. but our own Sun, which is the source of life here, is the most significant of all the other celestial bodies in the Solar System. It belongs to one of the other billions of billions of stars. In addition to illuminating space and its orb like our own, it ejects energetic particles and strong solar winds from its surface, and on its surface, it forms vortexes of so-called sunspots of electromagnetic strength that also affect life in our sphere.
Other planets have significant influence such as Jupiter, which has the strongest force field in the solar system and although it cannot directly compete with the sun, it captures loose comets to land on its surface. But it is fascinating that such a tiny celestial body as the moon can have such a great influence on us as tides and some sea creatures in a physically tangible way. if you include the fact that it is said to affect the human psyche of some individuals, it is strange that other planets cannot do the same.
What makes the Moon affect the tides is that the Sun and Moon act as cosmic generators when they are in certain positions in the sky that trigger these effects here on this planet and the forces they set in motion. In our mythical world where we are in a larger perspective with the forces that many today feel alienated from. But for many in ancient societies, it was the spiritual world that was most present. In the cosmological spiritual world that I represent, I go where I see that we live in some kind of cosmic mirror to both the matter we are incarnated in and the spiritual sphere that is often hidden from us.
In the modern world that we are all more or less part of, the last 200 centuries have become more apparent after science did not believe that concepts such as astrology and tarot and some other so-called superstition would have a renaissance in the modern world, where concepts such as reason and rationality would be what governed the whole of man's everyday life and his conceptual world. But even the concepts that are not prevalent within the framework of logic, such as murderous psychology, were not rational and were governed by reason alone. Freud The father of psychoanalysis leaned as heavily on the characters of the Greek gods as the astrologers and mystics have done throughout the ages to equate us down here with the figures that emerged from these cosmic imaginary worlds. In this case, they gave them a place in the so-called subconscious structure of human beings, which they called archetypal figures, to which we attach our psychological characteristics. He stated that in the world of dreams, certain recurring character traits that were the person's subconscious deeply rooted beliefs come to life in our nocturnal dreams as morphs of deeply rooted themes in our lives. He further stated that we live in a conflict between our waking consciousness which is a middle ground between our intellectually learned behaviours represented by the so-called superego that numbs our true self and its urges and impulses of the original self.
Carl-Gustav Jung, Freud's disciple and initially his trusted follower, had a different and broader view of life than his teacher. Like many contemporary mystics and astrologers who see his life's work as both important and that he could formulate himself in a more scientific way. he baked different areas into his theses which made him and Freud go separate ways because Freud forced Carl to follow his teachings which he refused. He limited his own theories about the collective unconscious and the emergence of synchronisation, a theme of the influence of two apparently independent things or individuals on each other, such as telepathy and meetings experienced separately. He had a tremendous fascination and respect for astrology, which came to incorporate many of his theses on what he found in his life's work. so that he became the great mystic in the service of psychology. He made horoscopes of the clients he treated. Not to make a horoscope of them as individuals in the first place but his relationship between himself as a therapist and the figure of the pyschoanalyst. he understood that we are all subjective in our relationships depending on who we meet.
Other strange thing that hit hard in the old scientific circles that have caused science as an anti-mystical or an institution to falter is quantum theory. that the quantum theory as a thesis and function was in use for a long time but could not be explained at an experimental level a few years ago when an experiment was made that from an observatory with its mirror could track the light from a distant star but to prove the physical legitimacy of the theory they needed another observatory that was close enough but far enough away from the observatory that measured the incoming light. The second observatory had no contact with the light from the star. They were able to measure a similar result from this light even though there was no direct measurement with the mirror that captured the light. So it was like a ghostly effect of the second observatory's registration of the light even though it did not get the signal from the star in the first place. which proved that the so-called superpositioned particles are in places where they are not registered. In astrological terms can be seen that positions and forces even if they are not here on Earth, are in the whole space around by some kind of field that is in constant flex with each other. The second is holography, which is a laser projection where an object can see in 3D and photographically retain its image in a glass disc, for example, if you break it, the whole emerges from the small individual pieces of the hologram. that have been the whole image of the hologram from the beginning. So the image exists in each small particle of the big picture.
In this way, astrology can be explained in its mirror effect. But what it suitably explains is that we are part of universal evolution on so many levels. That it carries the basic characteristics of how we in our consciousness represent the world from mythological basic structures for the qualities we possess and how these function in our psyches together with other individuals who form a collective consciousness together. It allows us to see on a cosmic level what qualities we possess as human beings and how they are expressed in the different aspects of life. Astrology gives us a clue as to how they are expressed in this world and the qualities and abilities that we possess. and gives us a picture of what we are actually like at the core of our ideas about ourselves. From astrology we can get to know ourselves from the inside and how we reflect our characteristics and abilities to each other. On a larger scale, the cosmic manifestos and the myths they give rise to form the archetypal geatats that C-G Jung studied during his life through the mirror world of the stars that the horoscope reflects. that form its framework around astrology

This Wideo takes up difrent aspects of astrology in diffrent angels and aspects and Carl- Gustav Jungs relationship to astrology
Astrology is a gigantic sphere of knowledge that encompasses so much more than what is written in books. To embrace it with all its depth and wealth of knowledge, we need to go beyond the astrology books and the beings around us, as C-G Jung mentioned the archetypes are ourselves walking on two legs, without perhaps thinking much about it.
But the source material is the Gods, the archetypal forces that we have named the planet after and given them their associations.
Since the beginning of time in our esoteric history, you have been able to see with the naked eye the 7 planets that have been counted in astrology Sun, Mercury, Venus, Moon, Mars, Jupiter ,and Saturn which are also mentioned in different cultures around the world so it is an exciting fact that they have associated with the same name. 250 years ago, an astronomer discovered Uranus which also, funnily enough, like the other two planets Neptune and Pluto which were added later, was associated with the periods that coincided with what they were associated with in the development of the world. Uranus was discovered by amateur astronomer William Herscel in 1781 Uranus is described as the planet of rebellion, Pinoy spirit, and invention. It is in the era of its discovery the French Revolution and the American Revolutionary War. This was the time of the Enlightenment and the Industrial Revolution in Europe. Discovered by Johann Gottfried Galle in 1846, Neptune is described as the planet of sublime expression. The sphere of art's dreams and illusions. At this time, Romanticism and old ideals were in high fashion Cultural institutions were founded and
a series of nationalist idealistic movements and spiritual movements began. The American Civil War with the opposing ideals of many of the great impressionists with a more fluid contourless style as the planet's watchword, and what would grow up to be the great turn-of-the-century costumers had their beginnings at this time. So Neptune affects the subtle levels of the collective human. Pluto was discovered by Clyde Tombaugh in 1930, a time of great upheaval in the midst of two world wars that came to reshape the entire western world's mindset in many ways Economic crisis in the US and a rising national socialism that came to shock the world. So it is described as the plane of mass movements and collective unconsciousness linked to drama and abrupt brutality and sudden flashes of light. pluto, the God of the Kingdom of Death, has only two on or off modes.

"How a horoscope look like and how it works in practice"
Here is a picture of a horoscope that is traditionally drawn up according to the Western doctrine that I represent. There are different opinions about it
which is illustrated in these films that I have shared here. But the tropical zodiac is the standard template we as western astrologers stick to.
You could say that it is a visual diagram of the geocentric celestial sphere it represents. In the outer ring, the symbols of the zodiac signs are represented in a 360-degree perspective.
Each of the 12 zodiac signs contains 30 degrees each. Some traditions take into account the decals, which comprise 10 degrees each. The horoscope reflects the cyclical nature of the universe
of the universe and life as we understand it against the backdrop of the energies around the dance of the solar system around our star, which is the Sun. with the background to the energies that Planertera represents around the dance in the solar system around our star which
which is the sun that provides us with warmth and the essence of life for our existence on our globe. So around the signs of the zodiac which tells the story of our nature and its'
the planets that give life and meaning to their expression in our personalities and projections. They dress the expressions against the background they are placed in.
'There are three fictitious cardinal points in the horoscope.
.
The Ascendant The point that is symbolically the eastern point as the symbol of birth.
after the sun rises in the east, it is a sacred point of the weather that symbolizes the awakening of birth, which is a point of beginning in the house system. The ascendant is the very beginning point of the
of first house which represents the individual and the ego. In identity, if you have something in this house it is an indication that it is something that
is exposed and visible and gives a clear expression of the character of the person. It is the house of Aries and corresponds to manifestation and expression.
