[I also offer this copy of a thread at the same aforementioned web-site forum as a further understanding of what all is implied here at this time. It is a bit out of context but I think it will be clear to all that read it that are students or practitioners of Astrology...I'll await any complaints to the contrary.]
"It was the book by Robert Zoeller on Arabic Parts that mentions this reversal on page 65 specifically. The book by Rudhyar is only giving clues as to this and it is apparent when one reads the symbols for the 30th of Virgo and the 1st of Libra and has an understanding of what I will here explain.
One has to realize that although He gives the keyword[s] definition as "Conquest of Illusion" Elsies vision was of one who is just beginning the attempt. [this is the prime reason I decry those that are putting their own books out about the symbols and are taking liberties with what Elsie actually described...I'm not saying those newer books don't have something to contribute but to always refer to the original 'vision' that was described.]
And when dealing with His definition that the 1st of Libra represents the "Perfect Form of Man" not to let yourself be indoctrinated by Christian church dogma that Jesus was born in that form but that the symbol is of a Butterfly which is born a caterpillar and must undergo a metamorphosis.
Then take Rudhyars statement that 'All paths of true spiritual discipleship begin in Virgo" to understand that it begins in the opposite direction from Virgo 30* to Libra 1*.
The aforementioned is pertaining directly to what you asked me for...the following is my own additional take on the situation and it need not interfere with what I just gave you....as you can ignore it.
Since I produced my proposed birth chart for Jesus/Yeshua [of which I and a number of people are throughly convinced of being valid.] I have been under the impression He was born in perfect form and that the result of the process concluded by his life was the conquest of illusion. Now it's obviously the other way around.
As my chart has the Moon at the 30th degree of Virgo and Pluto [Planet of Transformation] at the 1st of Libra [with His Asc. which might be in fact wedged between the two.] it jibes with what I've been taught by my Gurus of Oriental origin, specifically, of the Sanatan Dharm...i.e. 'Hinduism' ...with my apologies to those offended by the term 'Hindu'. That all beings born into this world must make a journey to achieve perfection. [The legend/history of Krishna is that He manifested and wasn't born is explanation as to Krishna being perfection incarnate from the get-go...Rama having been born is another matter...but, they are both valid Archetypes for those that follow that path. And as such I am not stating that Jesus/Yeshua is any less valid an Archetype...just that he has been slightly mis-represented...and I know that those of the Jewish faith will certainly agree with me on that point...i.e. 'mis-represented']
