25 by ### Does anyone know which planet rules ?the weather?? I?ve never come across anyone saying ?one planet rules all? regarding the weather, but it seems like to a large part it would have been assumed to be the Moon. Here?s the introductory quote from David Plant?s ?The Sublunar Sphere? [http://www.skyscript.co.uk/sublunar.html] : "She is the most powerfull in operation of all the other planets on Elementary bodies by reason of her proximity to us and her swiftness, by which she transfers the light and influence of all Superiours to us, by configuration with them." Ramesey, Astrology Restored And from the article itself: According to the philosopher Aristotle (4th Century BC), the Universe is divided into two distinct regions: the earthly and the heavenly. The Earth and its surrounding atmosphere was contained within the 'sub-lunar sphere', where everything was composed of various combinations of the four elements: earth, air, fire and water. The elements were constantly transforming one into another so everything in the sub-lunar sphere was in a state of perpetual change. Astrologers attempted to monitor and predict conditions in the elemental world through contemplation of their 'superior causes', i.e., the ever-shifting configurations of the stars and planets in the heavens. ..... Spirit descended into material existence through each of the planetary spheres in turn. It was moulded into its final earthly form in the Moon-sphere. The Moon's special role was to receive celestial influence or 'virtue' from the rarefied heavenly spheres above and transmit it to the sub-lunar sphere of the elements below. Luna brings the influence of the others to the sphere beneath her. The Moon features prominently in traditional astrological lore and folklore, whereas Jupiter/Jove doesn?t quite make it out of the storybooks. The recently promoted Earth Mother Ceres is on the Asc, which is an encouraging sign (Sorry Kirk, yes, since her 'upgrade' I have found her most useful!) Horrors! The next step toward disintegration is eating fortune cookies in bed. Quote Tue Dec 18, 2007 3:41 pm
26 by Laura BT Hi Kirk and everyone, Solstice blessings and thanks for Luna info, most appreciated. Although, am still ruminating about an overall climate ruler? Going back to our once-every-seven-lifetime?s J/P/GC conjunction, which I predicted would provide insight into ?dark energy? did anyone catch this, released on the 12th Dec? It?s right-on for outlandish symbolic imagery: http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2007 ... ssault.htm Story of a black hole that goes against the idea a black hole only ?sucks? energy into its? vortex; here we have a black hole jetting energy outwards. A release of radiation from black holes is not new, but knowing this suggests there is a dynamic interaction between light and dark (nothing new there either), but the way it has been presented, i.e. a black hole attacking another galaxy, is rather interesting ? and all very Plutonian; science suggests a galaxy hit by such radiation could even be the prompt for the making of new stars. Coming back to earth, the Bali chart is as close as it gets to an all nations agreement, which is at least a start to renewable energy becoming mainstream. I guess we may see how this is to be implemented as the now retro military Mars reverses back to oppose the 26 Sag point again in January, to go forward in February? Which may mean that the influence of this J/P/GC point is not over yet... Meanwhile, best yuletide wishes! Quote Sun Dec 23, 2007 2:22 pm
