| metaphysics of astrology: Metaphysics of Astrology Ivan Antic, 2020-01-12 Learn the basic principles of astrology without having to learn the theory beforehand. In order to understand the fundamental principles of astrological influences, why they exist and how they affect us, you must become familiar with the nature of the one who is affected, your own essence. It is all connected. Two things are in existence: you and the universe. If you delve into one with the utmost care, you will automatically understand the other because, in their foundation, they are the same. Astronomy is the science of how the universe works. Astrology is the science of how the holographic universe affects us. It broadens our horizons because it provides a holistic approach to life. Astrology shows us all the details of the way in which our transcendental soul is trapped in the body and events of our life, the ways in which we have been obstructed from attaining self-knowledge. That will make us understand how to set ourselves free. The knot can be untied by learning the way in which it was tied. We do not have to know all the details. It is enough to be acquainted with the basic principles of how astrology works to be able to know the basic principles of liberation and self-knowledge. They are presented before you in a summarized version. |

| metaphysics of astrology: Sub Rosa / The Book of Metaphysics Francesca Lisette, 2018-11-05 sub rosa: The Book of Metaphysics is a three-part interrogation of love, gender, ritual and the body. It heralds a new kind of poetic thinking, one that seeks to articulate and enact a mode of resistance to the obstinacy of present conditions, but which focuses on embodiment, tenderness and optimism. It wants to break present paths and contribute to a collective imagining of a different future; a record of and a practice towards healing. The opening sequence charts the breakdown and aftermath of a romantic relationship. The second, 'Becoming', then traces several feminine archetypes - the mother, the girl, the wild woman, the mermaid, Venus - in a critique of gender identity, summoning a lineage of strongly developed feminine ego identities in order to transcend and dissolve the individual (gendered) subject. The third sequence, entitled 'Ecstasy (Dispersal)' is then a reconstruction: a somatic and poetic (re)connection with the elements via crystal work, dance, somatics and food. Altogether, this collection is the latest installments of Lisette's engrossing attempt to develop a poetics which is more inclusive of the body, the feminine, and the performative. |

| metaphysics of astrology: Postcolonial Astrology Alice Sparkly Kat, 2021-05-18 Tapping into the political power of magic and astrology for social, community, and personal transformation. In a cross-cultural approach to understanding astrology as a magical language, Alice Sparkly Kat unmasks the political power of astrology, showing how it can be channeled as a force for collective healing and liberation. Too often, magic and astrology are divorced from their potency and cultural contexts: co-opted by neoliberalism, used as a force of oppression, or distilled beyond recognition into applications that belie their individual and collective power. By looking at the symbolic and etymological histories of the sun, moon, Saturn, Venus, Mercury, Mars, and Jupiter, we can trace and understand the politics of magic--and challenge our own practices, interrogate our truths, and reshape our institutions to build better frameworks for communities of care. Fearless, radical, and fresh, Sparkly Kat's Postcolonial Astrology ushers in a new wave of astrology revival, refusing to apologize for its magickism and connecting its power to the spirituality and politics we need now. Intersectional, inclusive, and geared towards queer and POC communities, it uses our historical and collective constructs of the planets, sun, and moon to re-chart our subconscious history, redefine the body in the world, and assert our politics of the personal, in astrology and all things. |
| metaphysics of astrology: Making the Gods Work for You Caroline Casey, 2007-12-18 Making the Gods Work for You presents internationally renowned author Caroline W. Casey's remarkable doctrine of Visionary Activist Astrology. In this reverently irreverent mystery school disguised as a book (in which each of the planetary gods is a professor), we are invited to think of our lives as spiritual detective novels. For example, Venus teaches us that our affinities and quirks are clues to our unique mission and contribution to the world. The astrological language of the psyche is a tool for deciphering and revitalizing this sense of mission. Casey teaches you how to expand your range of intimacy with the ten parts of yourself represented by the planets, here called gods. You will learn how to use this language to reverence and feed the forces of your psyche that connect you to very real external forces. This book intends to catalyze a movement to engage the imagination of all people with a sense of humor and a desire to do collaborative good in the world. Expanding on the ideas first presented in her popular audiotape series, Inner and Outer Space, Casey explores the archetypes at the heart of human relationships, aspirations, and spiritual quests. In an engaging narrative enlivened by stories, fables, exercises, and meditations developed through her work as an astrological counselor, she provides a practical system of personal and collective liberation. Making the Gods Work for You provides us with innovative principles to live by and rituals inviting us to become active, dynamic participants in the dance of life. We can then become increasingly conscious players on the team of creation, capable of sharing our gifts with the world at this crucial historical time. From the Trade Paperback edition. |

| metaphysics of astrology: The Night Speaks Steven Forrest, 2016-12-01 The Night Speaks is a one-of-kind astrology book. In it, best-selling author Steven Forrest offers a model for how astrology works, illuminating the reasons, both rational and transcendent, that astrology has been the focus of his spiritual life. In his own words, I love astrology passionately. Every day I see it helping people. But on the street, astrology is still mostly viewed as silliness. Anyone who 'believes in it' is taken for a fool. This inspired me to ask: Could I write the book an open-minded critic might read and be inspired to give astrology an hour to prove itself? Could I write one that my clients could confidently hand their skeptical friends? In other words, could I break through the monumental wall of prejudice and ignorance that has kept astrology trapped in its ghetto? This book is my response, and explains why astrology is both intellectually and spiritually plausible. |
| metaphysics of astrology: The Astrology of Success Jan Spiller, 2014-04-05 One of the most important journeys in life is finding your calling, a process of identifying and embracing the best career for personal satisfaction and success. As a child, you may have intuitively identified a career path that felt exciting and right. But it's easy to lose that belief and clarity as you navigate a confusing world. Competing and contradictory advice and expectations from friends, family, and society can make it challenging to identify what you truly want to do in the world, and how to pursue your dreams. In this inspiring, practical, and supportive book, Jan Spiller teaches you how the 10th House - or Midheaven - in your astrological chart can shed light on the tools and gifts you have to achieve success in any area of life. When you embrace and express your natural talents, you more easily enlist others in your success, and events fall into place more smoothly. But more than that, the 10th House shows how you can actualize the part of yourself that seeks a meaningful place in the world, and how to align more closely with your deeper purpose. On all levels - financial, emotional, relational, and spiritual - the 10th House can guide you to fulfillment, authenticity, and success. You'll need your astrology chart to use this book.

| metaphysics of astrology: Metaphysics of the Gods Brian Richard Taylor, 2017-04-16 Metaphysics of the Gods explores the concept that we are the creators of our own reality, together with our thoughts, feelings, karmic disposition, physical and planetary influences; we truly do make the world in our image; however, if we are not aware and in control of the mechanisms relating to how we perceive reality someone else will create it for us. The book will show how the subconscious is the main driving force behind our minds capacity, and to neglect this is to limit ones huge potential. It will expose the true purpose of meditation and how using it, at specific astrological times, to reprogram the subconscious, can harmonise both the spirit and the soul's connection to the physical realm, promoting realisation of your wishes, dreams and aspirations. The book also examines the ongoing battle between the opposing energetic characteristics of Jupiter and Saturn, along with the theological rivalry between the planets personified characters Jesus and Satan. It will also discuss the implications of Saturn ruling the Age of Aquarius, and its effect on the globalisation project, which could be interpreted as the Saturnisation of humanity. |
| metaphysics of astrology: Metaphysics or Ontology? Piotr Jaroszyński, 2018-02-12 Metaphysics or Ontology? treats the evolution of the object of metaphysics from being, to the concept of being, to, finally, the object (thought). Possible being must be non-contradictory, but an object of thought includes anything a human being can think, including contradictions and nothingness. When the concept of being, or object of thought, replaces existence as the object of metaphysics, it becomes something other than metaphysics—ontology, or something beyond ontology. However, ontology cannot examine existence because it only investigates concepts and possibility. Only classical metaphysics investigates reality qua reality. This book masterfully treats the history of this controversy and many other important metaphysical questions raised over the centuries |

| metaphysics of astrology: Meditation: First and Last Step - From Understanding to Practice Ivan Antic, 2019-01-26 In this book, you will discover everything you need to practice meditation according to the oldest and greatest authorities, Buddha and Patanjali. Along with, why the man needs meditation at all, why is it so appealing to spiritually mature people, what is its relationship with the soul. Unlike other practices of meditation, dealing only with the mind (mantra), or only with the body (yoga), or only with emotions (bhakti), which often led to discrepancies that had to be adjusted through various rituals and beliefs, the practice of meditation presented here, encompasses all these dimensions of the man in a harmonious unit. You will see how a human being is composed of all the dimensions of nature, a human being is a microcosm, and therefore, meditation is complete only when the man is being conscious on all dimensions, not only in the body and mind. Such meditation is inherently complete and does not require any supportive means in the form of ideological and religious preconceptions. The meaning of meditation in this book is related to the meaning of man's existence and the consciousness of his soul, to what we were before birth and what we will be after this life, to what we are in absolute terms. Meditation is the connection with the consciousness of the soul, and it is the divine consciousness within us, while beyond it is the consciousness that enables everything, the entire nature. In order to understand this connection of the mind and the divine consciousness of our soul, in this book, this spiritual sense of meditation is connected with the latest scientific discoveries of the essence of nature. You will discover how the consciousness of your soul is related to the quantum field and the physics of ether, which is the same physics that Nikola Tesla used to create the basics for all modern technology. You will find out what the non Hertzian frequencies through which the physics of the ether works are, how they are related to our thoughts and the creative effect of thoughts on the matter, you will discover that the powers (siddhi) are actually the effect of the non Hertzian frequencies of quantum mind awareness on physical, Hertzian frequencies. The philosophy of Advaita Vedanta on the unity of everything is well-known; that our essence (Atman) is actually the Absolute (Brahman) himself. Instead of mechanically repeating it as a formula, here you will find out how this unity actually happens; in reality there is no such thing as a multitude of subatomic particles but only one single 'divine particle' that vibrates at the present moment, much faster than light, according to the principles of fractal geometry and the golden section; therefore here, to us, it seems that there are plenty of particles, things and phenomena. These vibrations create energy, and therefore existence is essentially pure energy. Since that one particle is a reflection of the divine consciousness, everything is essentially pure consciousness. You will see all the evidence that consciousness is not in the body, but that our body only uses the divine consciousness which is in the essence of the very nature. Our brain does not produce consciousness, but only slows down the current divine consciousness that enables everything in a slow enough phenomenon so that reality, which is essentially a divine consciousness, looks to us like a matter separated in space and time. You will find out that through meditation in dreams you conquer higher dimension through out-of-body experiences and how these experiences are related to empathy, the emotional maturity that connects us with the unity and the divine consciousness here in reality. In short, this book associates the earliest spiritual knowledge with the latest scientific; in a practical description of how to apply it on yourself and thus understand its meaning through the realization of your sense of existence. |

| metaphysics of astrology: Incarnation Melanie Reinhart, 2014-10-10 Both of the seminars in this book address the theme of 'orientation', offering the reader a profound but accessible interpretation of the structure and the 'spinal column' of the horoscope. The four angles - Ascendant, Descendant, MC and IC - reflect the horizon and meridian at the moment of birth, and symbolise the 'cross of matter' into which we are born. They describe our participation in external reality, and also clarify how the subtle patterns of belief, attitude and circumstance affect our inner sense of orientation. Each angle is described separately, in terms of the element and mode, and the meaning of the houses which flank it. Transits are also considered, and there is a guided imagery process where the individual horoscope placements are explored. The axis of the Moon's Nodes represents an arc of meaning along which the activities of 'being' and 'doing' are balanced, over and over again. Our ability to let go of the past is tested, and we embrace the future from the vantage point of the eternal 'now'. This section reviews familiar material, and also offers a number of approaches to the Nodes which the reader will not find elsewhere. There is a review of the Nodes as placed in the six pairs of opposite signs, plus a questionnaire for readers to consider their own Nodes. This book includes astronomical and psychological material, presented in a lively seminar format which will expand the understanding of beginners and experienced astrologers alike. |
| metaphysics of astrology: The Physics of Consciousness Ivan Antic, 2021-05-08 The true nature of consciousness is an issue of primary importance today. A great many deceptions exist today that create conflicts among humans and with nature itself. In the modern world, a real possibility exists that such a conflict could threaten the existence of humankind. It is logical to assume that every conflict is based on fundamental misunderstanding or lack of awareness of the true nature of existence. This is predicated on the notion that the consciousness and existence are the same thing. All misinterpretations and conflicts are rooted in differentiating consciousness from existence, i.e. separating what goes on in our head from what goes on in the outer world and dividing our thoughts from our words and deeds. This aim of this book is to confirm the nature of external existence as an indivisible part of our consciousness and essence. A logical framework of such a depiction of reality rests on the assumption that the consciousness which is in our mind is an integrated part of the same consciousness that creates the overall existence. Unlike what is thought traditionally, there is no multitude of consciousnesses; the consciousness is only one and the same in everything, it merely divides and utilizes itself in all of the aspects of existence. Consciousness and existence are one and the same, and together they comprise our essence, or the soul. The true nature of consciousness and existence cannot be separated from the true nature of our essence or the soul. In other words, we cannot live in the world in one way, be aware in another, and relate to our essence in some completely different way. The consciousness of our soul is inseparable from the world we live in. Our existence remains inauthentic, painful, and heartless, insofar as we keep ourselves apart from the consciousness of our soul; from consciousness itself; and from existence, as such. However, a simple statement that the consciousness and existence are the same is not enough. To make their unity crystal clear, the functioning of the consciousness is presented here in detail in different dimensions of nature and through various forms, from the quantum field, minerals, plants, and animals to human beings and the development of culture, the issue of artificial intelligence, ethics, and, ultimately, the discipline of self-knowledge. The unity of the divine consciousness that creates everything with our thoughts and actions is demonstrated and proved quite practically here. This is the only way in which a book that aspires to explain the world may have practial value. |
