Contemplations on Spirit 

'In this blog I contemplate the means to understand one self and the motivation that moves us to unfold in heart and soul.'


I AM, part of a Bigger whole...

Sun is about to shift to Sagittarius 


The 23rd of November according to the New international Ephemerides.


We all have favorites, that’s okay ;-)! I’ve always had a soft spot for the Sagittarius theme.

(Can this be a positive projection due to my radix Venus in Sag?

;-)))

You know how multiple people with the same star sign can appear so different?

Well, that’s of course due to the fact that the whole chart (+ non astrological conditions!!!!) define the holistic being you are!


In terms of Sun in Sagittarius in the birth chart, the mechanics I apply in a nut shell:

Sun in Mutable/ Fire, Yang and natures time to hibernate and contemplate ones inner perception in relation to the outer world. Finding truth and growing a sense of discrimination.  


Okay let’s analyze the mechanics above..


Sun : The light of Life, the way you perceive the world, the way you anchor yourself in the world and indicate life's direction. a.o.


Fire : Perceives the world trough variety of options, choices and range of freedom. Is future oriented and focused on the cohesion. Tangible boundaries are perceived as challenging. 

Mutable : To cope with problems in life, Sags needs movement and action. When in doubt mutable signs get restless and seek diversification. 

This can be an outgoing action but can just aswel be an internal restlessness, seeking coherence and insight. 

Yang : Is outgoing by nature, not dependent on outer stimuli (note Mars in Sign for full clarity)

Time in Nature : Time to hibernate and contemplate ones inner perception in relation to the outer world. 

Finding truth and growing a sense of discrimination.  


So we have the “Planet” (I refer to Sun, Moon and Pluto in the chart as planets for convenience) ;

In Element (Fire), Quadruplicity/ astrological cross (Mutable), Yin/ Yang (Yang) & Natures themes at that time of year (November- December) ...

Last but not least, I always like to look at the opposing sign. Which in this case is Gemini of course.

Together they from the axes of knowledge.

Gemini the mutable air sign ruled by Mercury helps us gather, process and communicate facts and information and the opposing Jupiter ruled Sagittarius gives us the ability to seek and often find (;-)) coherence and express vision. 


In my other blog I explain a little bit about how I understand that astrology can be read as a meaningful bundle of symbols. If you want to learn and read a bit more about star signs in an informal manner I can highly recommend the book "Star signs for Lovers" by Liz Greene (in Dutch it's "Liefde in de Sterren").


I’m not going in to detail about how we can apply this as framework because I would LOVE to create a space and time where we can get together and study! So that’s it for now! 

Please reach out to me for any Q’s and or remarks.
