Formula Asc. + Cusp 11th [Placidus] - Uranus


I'd like you all to fin d your Part of Imagination and share with what you believe it represents. Usually these Parts represent, symbolically, what must be consciously applied...in a few instances it's what's already inherent [Part of Soul for examp.]

As the 12th house cusp [placidus] represents symbolically that which is 'your answer to the Worlds dilemma and my 12th huse cusp is the 25th of Libra

"(LIBRA 25°): THE SIGHT OF AN AUTUMN LEAF BRINGS TO A PILGRIM THE SUDDEN REVELATION OF THE MYSTERY OF LIFE AND DEATH.

KEYNOTE: The ability to discover in every experience a transcendent or cosmic meaning....
... the implications of the four preceding stages are brought to a new state of consciousness which is truly the spiritual state. It is a state of CLAIR-SEEING or "seeing through." This world is illusion only to the individual who cannot see through its phenomena and fails to apprehend the reality these phenomena reveal even as they conceal it."


Thus the revelation that my [COLOR="Red"]Part of Imagination [/COLOR]is 28* Cap. 32' ...the 29th degree of Cap. and the Sabian Symbol is...

" (CAPRICORN 29°): A WOMAN READING TEA LEAVES.

KEYNOTE: The ability to see the Signature of hidden meaning in every occurrence drawing one's attention.

Man has always sought to interpret the meaning of events or situations which baffle him in terms of specific omens or "Signatures." The reading of tea leaves is only a commonplace modern version of a certain type of procedure used by priests of all ancient religions. The practice is based on a realization of "the relation of everything to everything else" — a definition of astrology given by Marc Jones. Dream interpretation in depth psychology belongs to the same category, as it is based upon the establishment of a close connection between the unconscious and the conscious. But in dream analysis the individual unconscious, at least at first, is mainly referred to, while in omens (or modern fortune-telling at its best) one relies upon the power of occult forces or entities to convey the information that will clarify confusing situations.

This fourth stage symbol can be referred to a specific "technique" of understanding or evaluation. What is implied is the ability not only to perceive the facts of everyday existence, but to see through these facts and discover how they are related to the realm of basic meanings or archetypal processes. This is essentially what is meant by true CLAIRVOYANCE, the capacity to see in everything the Signature of deeper realities."

... it's either one of the inherent Parts...or the applied...so that's why I'm...
Waiting to hear from you all...thanks ptv

I calculated the part of Imagination for Yeshua/Jesus from my chart that I propose is his...it is the 26h of Cap.

[from Rudhyar @http://mindfire.ca/The%20Sabian%20Symbols/An%20Astrological%20Mandala%20-%20Capricorn%2016-30.htm ]

"(CAPRICORN 26°): A NATURE SPIRIT DANCING IN THE IRIDESCENT MIST OF A WATERFALL.

KEYNOTE: The ability to perceive the hidden and creative spirit of natural phenomena.

The Sabian symbols make several references to nature spirits Here we are dealing with the revelation of the spiritual or psychic forces related to the element water. Water binds all living cells in a wholesome interplay. It symbolizes the constant flow of vital energies, the fluidity of a consciousness which finds itself stimulated by change. The great cycle of water within the earth's biosphere (oceans, clouds, rain, river) symbolizes the basic phases of universal life processes, the ascent and descent of emotional energies and of love. We can personify these phases and speak of "the soul of nature," and at a cosmic level of "the World-Soul," anima mundi. Water is the substance of the telluric manifestations of this soul. It is a magical substance, and modern chemists are rediscovering in their study of its unusual behavior in certain situations what old Alchemists in their own way no doubt understood.

This is the first stage of the sixtieth subcycle, and it presents us with a deep intuition of super-physical energies which at the end of this five-fold sequence we will see fully mastered (Phase 300). The consciousness here becomes sensitized to the downward flow of OCCULT ENERGY in its bountiful natural aspect"

This goes hand in hand with so much else of His chart ...esp Pluto conj. Asc. The ability to perceive the 'energies' at work in 'reality'...like some sort of X-Ray vision...like Neo in the movie the 'Matrix'

This is an excellent example [if not the best...] of what I've referred to as "Ringing with the overall 'TENOR' of a charts' Sabian Symbology."

I still question as to whether this Part should be known as the Part of Imagination. Because I would have to give that realm to Neptune not Uranus...I just had a flash that it should be called the "Part of Higher Intelligence"...as that is what Uranus rules. It's a Part more about what we can conjecture about our own greater intelligence...possibly...but more than conjecture...I believe it will provide applicable symbolic imagery that is valid to each of us in its own way...and your own particular application/way of it.

Okay...I've given this part a lot of thought as to it's name which i think is misleading...in that 'Imagination' and imagining belong more to the realm of Neptune not Uranus. As Uranus is the higher octave of Mercury ..aka 'Great Awakener", 'The Force of Change most often unexpected...and often rudely'
two sides of Uranus...but as this Part by all indications appears to be that of a benefic one I have to say the former attributes of Uranus apply here and what I believe we have is a 'Part of Intuition' with this formula..."Higher Intuition' if you please.
This makes far more sense and explains what I've been seeing in folks charts by the Sabians when I've applied it an analyzed it.

...as Uranus in the 11th House does bestow an intuitive capability to perceiving and or ...the sort....understanding Universal Laws, Higher Laws of science, metaphysics, ...Spiritual Laws
I think the title Intuition has got more going for it than I first realized...awaiting replies/opinions/evaluations and the like...DM
