Re: Where do the meanings of the Outer Planets originate? 13 by janegca Hi All, surprised no one has mentioned The Light of Egypt written by Thomas H. Burgoyne in 1889. In Volume I he describes Uranus, Neptune and a 'missing' 10th planet which, he said, "symbolizes the missing soul within the the human constitution". You can find the descriptions on p270-273. Burgoyne was a member of the Hermetic Brotherhood of Light, he was not a Theosophist; in fact, Blavatsky was hostile towards the brotherhood from the moment they appeared. ---------------------------- "I can calculate the motions of celestial bodies, but not the madness of people.” —- Sir Isaac Newton https://archive.org/details/@janegca Quote Sat Oct 26, 2024 8:22 pm

What Burgoyne says can be related somewhat to what Edgar Cayce said about Pluto and developing spiritual awareness. The Light of Egypt sounds somewhat familiar, but the book isn't in my library. Thanks for the reference, Jane. The astrological view of Pluto today is often negative and Mars-like in effect. Have astrologers been missing the boat on Pluto? http://www.snowcrest.net/sunrise/LostZodiac.htm Quote Sun Oct 27, 2024 5:30 am
Re: Where do the meanings of the Outer Planets originate? 15 by janegca Hi Therese, Elbert Benjamine said Pluto was the upper octave of the Moon, not Mars. "Pluto is the octave of the Moon, transmitting an influence that is forceful and compelling. The domestic impulses are expanded to embrace a larger group." His basic description of the planet is: Pluto, the higher octave of the Moon, is a social planet, and a convertible planet, expressing either a harmonious or a discordant influence according to the aspects received from other planets. Like the number 10, which starts a new numerical cycle, Pluto is a transitional influence, and more than any other planet may express in either of two diametrically opposite qualities. He may express positively and electrically, but his more common influence is negative and magnetic. In human anatomy he rules the spiritual body. In his influence over the human mind he rules that group of mental factors designated as the Universal Welfare Urges. They relate to groups, cooperation, the inner-plane, hidden forces, inversion, the inside of things, mass production, and to aggressive spiritual activity. The Lower-Pluto forces are drastically insidious and destructive, the Upper-Pluto forces are the finest and most spiritual of all. Not the individual who instigates the action, but the victim of coercion, has this planet prominent. To such events as he attracts, or to which he contributes, he adds a drastic quality. Pluto is the inner-plane planet and the planet of Transition ESP. His nature is best expressed in one word as COOPERATION. Personally, I've always found this group oriented description to be more workable than the Pluto-Mars pairing. ---------------------------- "I can calculate the motions of celestial bodies, but not the madness of people.” —- Sir Isaac Newton https://archive.org/details/@janegca Quote Sun Oct 27, 2024 8:03 pm
Re: Where do the meanings of the Outer Planets originate? 16 by Ouranos Interesting this view of Pluto. Similar to Alfred Witte who associated Pluto to change. As it seems, change with no coming back. Pluto has five moons. Its largest moon, Charon, is about half the size of Pluto, making it the largest known moon relative to its parent planet in our solar system. Pluto's other moons are: Nix, Hydra, Kerberos, and Styx. Ouranos Blessings! Quote Sun Oct 27, 2024 8:47 pm
