The planets in your birth chart map general predispositions toward events which later enter your life when they’re stimulated by a major progressed aspect. So, if you have ever wondered why your life unfolds the way it does knowledge of your birth chart and progressed chart holds the answer.
The planets by their house positions place their signatures on the events associated with each department of life. Sun, power and authority; Moon, fluctuation; Mercury, thinking and deductive reasoning; Venus, gifts and gratuities; Mars, strife and conflict; Jupiter, abundance and good fortune; Saturn, scarcity and loss; Uranus, unexpected gains and reversals; Neptune, illusion and vagueness; and Pluto, cooperation or coercion.
And events only occur when the planet ruling the house is involved in a major progression. House 1, health events; house 2, financial events; house 3, events involving siblings; house 4, housing events; house 5, events involving children; house 6, work and sickness events; house 7, marriage and enmity events; house 8, debt and death events; house 9, long journeys and court cases; house 10, business, job and honor events; house 11, events involving friends; and house 12, disappointment, restriction and events involving secret enmity.
You won’t experience any major life changing event predisposed by your birth chart except during those limited periods when the predisposition is activated by a progressed aspect.
Progressed aspects add energy to definite thought-cells within your astral body; and the thought-cells given a boost of new energy influence your thoughts and behavior. They exercise extra-physical power from the inner-plane to attract events, during the period the progressed aspect is operative.
These inner-plane thought-cells have desires which they strive to realize through events of the physical world. And to the extent they have energy, or gain it from a progressed aspect, they exert pressure upon your external environment through extra-physical power aka psychokinesis.
Each significant event which comes into your life is due to the activity of the thought-cells within your finer-astral-form which at the time are acquiring new energy from some characteristic progressed aspect.
But, know this: the progressed aspects themselves do not map specific events. Instead, they map energy releases of definite types, during periods which can be predetermined, which accelerate the thought-cell activity within your finer-astral-form mapped by the planets involved in the aspect. They indicate a predisposition toward events of a certain kind, but those events are not foreordained or inevitable.
It is found, quite to the contrary, that with knowledge of the most likely events your thought-cells will try to bring to pass when given a boost of new energy by a progressed aspect you can divert this thought-cell activity into channels which are constructive and much more fortunate than would otherwise have been the case.
Hermetic astrology is not interested in determining the most probable events which will be attracted by each progressed aspect because such events are inevitable. Rather, its objective is to gain information which will enable you to intelligently divert your activated thought-cell activity into channels that will attract events and conditions that are much more fortunate through the application of intelligent effort.
It is undoubtedly true that there are times when you will need a lawyer, a minister or a professional healer. But to get the most out of life you should know enough about the law and spirituality to only require the support and guidance of a lawyer or minister every now and then; and you should know enough about stellar dietetics to remain healthy without the constant aid of a doctor. This requires birth chart and progressed chart knowledge.
Your birth chart depicts your character and the types of events you’re inclined to attract due to its environmental associations; and your progressed chart depicts progressed aspects which, during their period of operation, stimulate unconscious thought-cell activity into working to attract events mapped in your birth chart.
The time you spend learning to assess and understand your birth chart and progressed aspects provides valuable knowledge that allows you to know why your life unfolds the way it does.
