| A Treatise on White Magic - Rule Ten - Astrology and the Energies |
| Astrologers must remember also that there are several [439]
undiscovered planets which are producing pulls and shifts and focusing streams of energy
upon our earth which tend to complicate the problem still further. Pluto is one of them,
and having now emerged into manifestation (or rather into recognition) to it will be
assigned all the unexplained conditions. Pluto will be made the scapegoat for faulty
astrology for a long time to come. This chart failed to work and be true because Pluto
must be influential in it and we know little about Pluto. So the story will run. Yet Pluto
has always been revolving around our sun and producing its effects. It governs however the
death or cessation of old ideas and emotions, and its influence is therefore largely
cerebral and in that you have the clue to its late discovery. Mankind is only on the verge
of becoming mental. Its effects are felt first in the mental body. The names of the
planets are not the result of arbitrary choice but the planets name themselves. Astrologers will eventually find it necessary to cast three horoscopes or three charts: - one purely physical dealing with the body of nature; one primarily emotional, and dealing with the quality of the personality and with its sensitivity, or state of awareness; the third will be the chart of the mental impulses and conditions. It will be found that these three charts will take certain geometrical lines, the lines of energies will form patterns. These three charts, superimposed one upon the other, will give the personality diagram, the individual life pattern. Amazing symbolic charts and lineal forms will be found to emerge when this is done, and the "geometry of the individual" will grow out of this, for it will be found that each line will function in relation to another line, and the trends of the life energies will become apparent. Eventually, even in this department of knowledge, "the star will shine forth". This will constitute a new branch of psychology and its true exponent for [440] our age will duly be found. I but indicate the lines of the future astrology in order to safeguard the present. One thing astrologers need at this time to do and that is to make due allowance for this transition period out of Pisces into Aquarius. This is seldom done, but it is evident that the tremendous turmoil incident to these transitions affects the individual chart, and frequently offsets individual destiny or karma. People are submerged in planetary and racial destinies, and their own tiny affairs are offset almost entirely and sometimes completely negated. It is not possible to cast the horoscope of the planet, and those who propose to do so are deceiving themselves and others. The horoscope of the fourth kingdom in nature, of humanity, will eventually be cast, but it will be done by initiates, and there are no initiate astrologers working on the physical plane at this time. One hint here I give. The Sun was in Sagittarius when the first human tendencies struggled to the fore. The stage of animal man was completed and when Sagittarius was dominant (from our planetary standpoint - I am using words with care) the great event of individualization took place. But the brain of the then human being failed to register what had happened. In the words of the Old Commentary:
This took place twenty-one million years ago. Cycles passed and when at a later date the sun was in Leo (approximately eighteen million years ago) the first instances of coordination between brain and mind took place and the human being was definitely self-conscious. He registered his individuality. The figures for the first date (though exactness is not possible in a system of mutation such as ours) are 21,688,345 years ago. These figures are useless at this time for they can neither be proved correct nor incorrect. Later investigation will prove their usefulness, when the nature of time is better understood. Sagittarius governs human evolution, for it symbolizes progress towards a conscious goal. Leo governs the human consciousness in the human kingdom for the energy pouring through it enables man to say "I am". |
