I don't know about this but Mohammad did say (in one of his sayings) that true dreams (i.e. dreams that will come true or dreams that are actually command from God) is one of 46 "attributes" of a prophet. He certainly did not if this comes from the hadiths, which it does: (29:5622) Abu Hu... Forum: Philosophy & Science Topic: Question about Al Biruni.

I know, so let's say that we didn't have the (inevitably biast) ancient Muslim testimonies as to which planet presides over Islam, and we had to make such an association based upon our observations, then what would be the nature of the attribution you'd make? I'm a heathen, so I'm completely imparti... Forum: Mundane & Financial Astrology Topic: The Planets and Religions. Replies: 19 Views: 18936 Wed Mar 26, 2008 6:19 pm Jump to post
Thankyou for that Steven. A Muslim opinion though, and I suspected as much. Forum: Mundane & Financial Astrology Topic: The Planets and Religions. Replies: 19 Views: 18936 Wed Mar 26, 2008 4:59 pm Jump to post
Hi Steven. First, Jupiter was never given a particular religion! It was by nature a significator of faith,...period! It was a part of their delineation to see the planet which Jupiter was mixed with: Okay, fair enough. Who are the ancient mundane astrologers to which you refer though? I wonder who t...

There are stories about Venus being prominent in the sky during significant moments in the early history of Islam. I do remember a friend telling me once, that the reason for the Islamic symbolism of the cresent moon, along with a star, is that the star is said to represent Venus, because apparentl...

The clue is in the various religions' sacred days: Judaism - Saturday - Saturn Islam - Friday - Venus Christianity - Sunday - Sun Ahh. Now I see. I think in cases like this, you have to look at attributes other than the usual malefic/benefic. I wasn't attributing Saturn and Mars to Judaism and Isla...

Thankyou Mithra. It'll be interesting. Islam is definitely Venus and Judaism is Saturn. Well, it would be wouldn't it, in an Arabic text. Forum: Mundane & Financial Astrology Topic: The Planets and Religions. Replies: 19 Views: 18936 Wed Mar 26, 2008 1:25 pm Jump to post
Judaism and Islam get the malefics A and B. Christianity gets the big, fat, jolly greater benefic. Well....yes. I'm not a Christian by the way, I'm a proud heathen. Saturn and Judaism is no surprise, is that not the traditional view anyway? Looking back into Jewish history, replete with tales of ex...

The Planets and Religions. Please share with me your thoughts: Saturn is Judaism, Jupiter is Christianity, Mars is surely, Islam. Notice that we come inward from the outer sphere in order of the age of the religion. These are the three major monotheistic religions, each presided over by a superior planet, and each a single pl... Forum: Mundane & Financial Astrology Topic: The Planets and Religions.

Transiting Pluto is going to conjunct the United Kingdom chart (1801) IC and Sun during 2012-2014.

Hi Tracey. I'll have a go. I only had a quick look. Where we found the dog? The significator of the dog is Mercury peregrine in Scorpio upon the eighth cusp. Scorpio upon the eight might suggest drains or drainage, and perhaps still pools of water, ponds. However, given the partile aspect between th...
