What will you do? (1990). Like I previously mentioned, the link between Uranus, Aries, and Individuation is fascinating from an esoteric perspective since Mercury rules Aries in Esoteric Astrology, and Uranus is the higher octave of Mercury. So in this time of great Taurus energy, we can perhaps use our powerful sensory abilities to become more aware of our desires. With Jupiter conjunct the North Node of Neptune, and Uranus in Aries in trine, with Mars in Sagittarius also coming in for a trine, the entire evolutionary trajectory of Neptune will be electrified in the next month. Yet these long term memories remain held by Uranus, and a memory formerly blocked can suddenly come like a bolt of Uranian lightning into our consciousness through the boundary Saturn governs with our subconscious. Jeffrey Wolf Green Evolutionary Astrology: EA Glossary: Guiding Principles of Jeffrey Wolf Green Evolutionary Astrology by Jeffrey Wolf Green , Linda Jonson , et al. If we can combine this with the guidance the Buddha brings to us in this season of Taurus, to train our minds to disentangle from the desires preventing us from sensing our true being in the world without interruption, we will have a heightened ability to shift and flow with whatever intense events may be on the horizon of our lives. Rudhyar viewed Jupiter as the soulful function of our purpose within the form of our Saturn structure. In the painting The Birth of Venus by Botticelli above, we can see this sense of insecurity even in the Goddess Venus herself, as she feels a need to slightly begin to cover herself. Mark Epstein explored important questions in this book, bringing up the fact he had many friends and associates who gained insights through therapy and yet remained as unhappy, dissatisfied, and egocentric after being in therapy as they were before. Jupiter: Organizer of Functions. Yet this is the necessary urge for creation and change underlying our reality, and the change brought by Jupiter and Uranus take us beyond our previous restricted worldview into a new reality giving us goosebumps with the surge of electricity available from the new surroundings. Jupiter organizes the chaos within the structure of our consciousness through love and yearning, through our senses and feelings, through our intuition and imagination. But these are nothing more than conscious representations; it would be absurd to assume that such variable representations could be inherited. Jeffrey Wolf Green did readings there during his formative years. In contrast, Prometheus had the ability to not only strategize action in advance, but to successfully strike back at the oppressive powers in control in order to create a liberating impact. Green's life experience is practically as wide as his vision. Todays eclipse correlating with greater awareness of spiritual forces is further shown through the Sabian Symbol of the Solar Eclipse at 20 degrees Taurus: Wisps of winglike clouds streaming across the sky, described by Dane Rudhyar as a sign that an individual who has taken a new step in his evolution should look for the Signature of divine Powers confirming his progress . At the time of todays eclipse, the North Node of the Moon and Saturn will be widely conjunct in Scorpio. Gary became President of the local astrology group in 1976, and they held a mini-conference in 1977.

This means that we are building toward our experience of the full meaning of their current cycle that will occur with Jupiter in Libra opposite Uranus in Aries at the end of 2016 and throughout 2017. Green, Jeff. Astrology is the study of the correlation between celestial movements and earthly events, and Thus, in Evolutionary Astrology, Aries embodies an instinctual sense of personal self-discovery that is felt at every moment (Green, p. 43). The first phase may manifest in many ways; perhaps through slow stages of progressive thinning out of the Saturnian shells so that these become finally like translucent window-panes through which the consciousness centered within the shells may behold vistas of the beyond. Yet though we may utilize the filter of Saturn in defense, this unconscious material can nonetheless condition us into staying stuck in restrictive thought patterns of belief such as I have to have control, I cannot trust anyone, or the universe is targeting me because I am a bad person. Clearly, the archetypal meaning of Uranus has a direct influence on the archetypal meaning of Jupiter and the manner in which we project beliefs in our life. . In his book Man and His Symbols, CarlJung criticized the connotation of the term archaic remnants created by Freud to describe dream imagery evoking ancient myths because it suggested that they were psychic unconscious elements collected by the conscious mind like a trash can. . On February 8, Mercury and Mars were conjunct in Pisces (also conjunct Neptune and Chiron in Pisces and square Jupiter in Gemini), and then once Mercury stationed retrograde, they were conjunct again on February 26, 2013 in square to Ceres in Gemini (I wrote about this here: https://esotericembers.wordpress.com/2013/02/27/an-angel-watches-over-an-argument-between-ceres-and-mercury/). The Sabian Symbol for the current placement of Saturn in Scorpio is especially illuminating in this way: Scorpio 8: A calm lake bathed in moonlight, Keynote: A quiet openness to higher inspiration. MF: Jeffrey Wolf Green (for those unfamiliar with his work) uses Pluto as the symbol of the soul's conditioning, then looks at the nodal axis, the rulers of Pluto and the nodal axis, and the aspects connected to them. When asked why he would not reveal other facts about reality, he gave the following reply: Because, friends, there is no profit in them; because they are not helpful to holiness; because they do not lead from disgust to cessation and peace; because they do not lead from knowledge to wisdom and nirvana. An Astrological Mandala: the cycle of transformations and its 360 symbolic phases. As a result, while Jupiter expands us, the contraction of Saturn in response tends to keep our growth confined to the current framework that for most has been heavily conditioned by surrounding culture. Through streams of associations that lead us to further associations, we begin to gather around us a library of resources from which we can structure a belief system and philosophy through which to live that aligns with our Soul desires. Rudhyar, Dane. For one, it means that for ages human beings have been developing belief systems around trying to control and regulate, in a Capricorn manner, the interactions of humans within societies. Harper Collins. Jupiter in Leo in trine to Uranus in Aries, with Mars in Sagittarius forming a Grand Fire Trine in the next month, is a perfect time to embody the heart of the lion and push past the fears we have had of not being able to manifest our vision in our current circumstances. Incarnation means embodied in flesh or in the flesh, in the meat (carne), and so connects with Taurus as being the second sign of the zodiac since in Taurus we incarnate into form the new impulse of celestial life connected with the first sign of the zodiac, Aries. This is somewhat similar to the diamond approach of A.H. Almaas that involves sensing ones body in an ongoing basis, with focus on a point in the belly, helping one to become more grounded in physical body and physical reality, and eventually bringing with it the potential to become more in touch with a spiritual essence. This can then lead to a crisis for the Soul, as the beliefs it has been following to gain a sense of security come into conflict with the deeply felt desires coming from within. Aries energy can be headstrong in the sense of being determined to follow an individuation process in the face of cultural pressure to conform, but the manner in which Aries energy can initiate this process can be more of a surrendering to ones inner nature than a forceful assertion of ones inner nature. There are two main schools of Evolutionary Astrology in practice today: the Steven Forrest approach, and the Jeffrey Wolf Green approach. Some of the most widely practiced ancient rituals were connected with myths of the underworld, resurrection, and transcendence of form, such as the myth of Demeter and Persephone, and the myth of Isis and Osiris. Linked with specific qualities of the corresponding mythic figures- the Greek deity Zeus, the king of the Olympian gods, the Babylonian Marduk, the Roman Jupiter- it received as well certain symbolic amplifications that emerged in the various contributing traditions: Platonic, Hermetic, Arabic, and Renaissance. My views about the archaic remnants, which I call archetypes or primordial images, have been constantly criticized by people who lack a sufficient knowledge of the psychology of dreams and of mythology. These aspects of dukkha related to self-identity are the other two types of clinging taught by the Buddha: clinging for being and for nonbeing. This is an important aspect I dont have the space or time in this blog to properly explore, but it is sometimes the idea of being empty or lacking ego that draws some to Buddhism in order to get away from their egocentric perspective; however, to the Buddha, in either case it is the minds need for certainty that shortchanges reality (p.22).

In his recently revised and re-published Uranus: Freedom from the Known, Jeff Green analyzed the meaning of a natal Uranus in Ariesthat has some resonance with the current transit of Uranus through Aries: Mental trauma can occur to these individuals because of an inability to accept physically, psychologically or karmically prescribed limitations that create the effect of blocking them from achieving their inner sense of special destiny, of not being able to do anything or everything that they feel they could do. | Mar 30, 2014 4.4 out of 5 stars 32 Creation of humanity by Prometheus as Athena looks on (3rd century AD). When our vision of life fueled by the knowledge we are gaining from our personal experience (Jupiter) comes into conflict with the norms dictated by consensus belief systems (Capricorn where Pluto is currently transiting and the location of the South Nodes of Jupiter, Saturn, and Pluto) we arrive at a crux in which we can feel judged, ashamed, and guilty or could instead rebel and individuate with self assertion in the direction of the vision being felt within. They are without known origin; and they reproduce themselves in any time or in any part of the world- even where transmission by direct descent or cross fertilization through migration must be ruled out. Green explained this is similar to how we do not even consciously remember every single thing that happened to us yesterday, and our long term memory becomes even more imprecise every following day, week, year, and decade. The spiritual light within the greater Soul must struggle against the ego-will that only knows how to use the powers of this material and intellectual world. Especially compelling to me is her use of a pine tree seed as a symbol for individuation, and how the totality of a full-grown pine tree lies latent within the being of the seed: The seed of a mountain pine contains the whole future tree in a latent form; but each seed falls at a certain time onto a particular place in which there are a number of special factors, such as the quality of the soil and the stones, the slope of the land, and its exposure to sun and wind. This brings up the question, what is desire? Through His death and resurrection, Christ illustrated that man must transcend the desires of his personality so that he can gain admittance into the Kingdom of Heaven (conscious immortality in the Spirit). Green teaches that the placement and aspects of Pluto describes the types of desires the soul has had in previous lives that have a direct connection to the current evolutionary intentions of the current lifetime- in Sanskrit this archetype is called Prarabdha Karma. Jeffrey Wolf Green's Pluto in Human Design 1,444 views Oct 2, 2020 Evolutionary astrologer Jeffrey Wolf Green (Jeff Green) meets Human Design :) We will interpret Pluto in his Gate. This is a worthy idea, and one of the possible meanings found within this fiery vastness. Integrating these two views (much as Jung began to do in his final years under the influence of synchronicities), contemporary astrology suggest that archetypes possess a reality that is both objective and subjective, one that informs both outer cosmos and inner human psyche, as above, so below' (p. 85-6). . The fact that Prometheus ultimately stole the fire that Zeus was attempting to withhold in order to empower humanity with this flaming resource, can be seen in the emancipatory archetypal force generated by the Jupiter and Uranus cycle. Jupiter in Libra will finally enter its Full phase opposition with Uranus in Aries on December 26, 2016. Dane Rudhyar, Uranus- Master of Transformations. I do not mean to suggest that we need to go through a death experience at this time in our lives, just that the symbol of death and transformation associated with the archetype of Scorpio is very important right now, being the polarity to so much Taurus energy. . This would amplify the intensity of the transiting Jupiter and Uranus cycle for you, making your Jupiter under the influence of Uranus more dramatically than if Uranus was not in aspect to your natal Jupiter. The archetype of Aries has been linked with individuation in many works of astrological literature. . Since we are in a time of such tremendous Taurus energy, and Taurus has a strong tendency to want to hold onto past habits of comfort in order to gain a sense of self-security, it will be especially important now to practice greater awareness and mindfulness of our attachments. Joseph Campbell and others have elaborated upon the significance of ritualistic deaths in myths and in the reality of cultures around our planet, in that the important thing is that the participants believe they are going to die, and so experience a death of their infantile ego. Man strives hard to achieve great things through daring adventures, but a moment comes when all that really matters is to present a calm mind upon which a supernal light may be reflected. April 20, 2014 at 1334 of Aries and Cancer. . For a different perspective on Uranus, in the evolutionary astrology taught by Jeffrey Wolf Green Uranus is the long-term memory mind of our soul- meaning not just all of the memories from our own lifetime beyond the ones we consciously remember this moment, but also all of the memories from all of the past incarnations of our soul. Other astrologers have talked about the Moon or the 12th house as the karmic past. The work to free ourselves from possessiveness and materiality so that through these lessons true Wisdom may emerge is very definitely at the center of the Taurean phase of the turning of the wheel. Such an awakening brings forth the potential for the fullest expression of our humanness. here we see the result of a deep and complete concentration reaching to the innermost center of the personality where the Living God acts as a fecundating power. Cosmos and Psyche. During each of these, as well as during the intervening oppositions, decisive crests of remarkably synchronous breakthroughs and innovations appeared to take place within a brief period of time in many areas of human activity. In the time of Pisces we were able to open to some sense somewhere of greater vision and possibility in our life- now is the time to manifest, and work with our mind to change the way we are thinking, to align our mind and our perceptions with not only our Will but the Divine Will of the Universe. How each of us interprets this myth in our own time, the specific images that may come to mind as representations, will vary widely and will be shifting with time. It can vary from culture to culture, especially where material items are concerned: to some possessing a high octane mechanical vehicle with plush interior made up of the skin of a cow could be important, whereas to someone else owning the cow itself could be important. All pine trees are very much alike (otherwise we should not recognize them as pines), yet none is exactly the same as another. As a result, we all hold subconscious (Uranus) memories that extend through the South Node of Uranus into the nomadic time period of humanity that predated the development of agricultural civilizations. This point is further emphasized by the South Nodes of both Saturn and Pluto also being in Capricorn. Many more in the grove, they replied with unsparing simplicity and none of my taste for duplicity. The potential of using Taurus sensory awareness to develop greater connection with Spirit and presence in the Now of the constant flux of life, also reminds me of the wisdom contained in Taoism. It can only modify its outer appearance and the quality and balance of the organic forces which operate within that structure. Yet the influence of Saturn is still needed to structure and manifest these far-flung insights into forms that can be understood and utilized by those surrounding us in our collective. This new vision would have been felt on an instinctual level, and while it would have lacked a sense of complete clarity, we would have felt compelled to spontaneously act from it in as many directions as possible. Epstein, Mark. He felt a place where Buddhism, meditation, and psychotherapy can all be helpful is the concept of going on being, which he first read about through British child analyst D.W. Winnicott. He spoke of the ancient battle between Kronus or Saturn, one who is frightened of the timeless and wants to create finite strucutres, and Ouranos or Uranus, one who wants to break finite structures up. What this consensus reality looks like is constantly shifting in modern times, with each new generation ascending with all of its myriad fractals of individuation occurring inside. But this creatively active aspect of the psychic nucleus can come into play only when the ego gets rid of all purposive and wishful aims and tries to get to a deeper, more basic form of existence.
