This has to do with “Spiritual Bondage…as I ill demonstrate using my natal chart for Yeshua [and illustrative of why I refer to the birth chart as a “Template”. It is a template of understanding. An Astrological Rosetta Stone, if you will allow?]
This Part is found to be at location in a chart through the formula, Asc. + Moon – Ruler of 12th House Cusp
The birth chart of Yeshua has an Asc. at 00* Libra 43′ 17″, the Moon is at 29* Virgo 25′ 24″ and the 12th House Cusp is located at 03* Virgo 13′, and as Mercury is then the Ruler of His 12th House, e find Mercury at 01* Taurus 05′ 41″.
Assigning numerical designations for the Signs, where Aries is 0 or 12, Pieces 11, Taurus 1, etc. Libra + Virgo = 6 + 5, which in turn, = 11, and adding the other numbers for the Asc. and Moon, and then subtracting for Mercury, and 11 – 1 to get the Sign, we end up with a Part of Bondage at 29* Aquarius 01′ 57″. And that is in the 30th degree of Aquarius.
Of all the Sabian Symbols given a bit of make over in their description, from other than what the clairvoyant, Elsie Wheeler, had originally given as a description… of which there are but a relative few… and note that Marc Edmond Jones gave Dane Rudhyar the “nod” as to “tweaking” the imagery where Dane deemed it a necessary re-interpretation to make them more readily , more clearly, understood.
Of those few symbols the 30th degree of Aquarius as re-imaged by Rudhyar, stands out as being by far the most extensively so, it certainly got the most words used in the process.
What Dane has re-imaged it to is the perfect description of the White Lodge, aka The Great White Brotherhood, aka The Ascended Masters.
Thus demonstrating Yeshu’a’s “Spiritual Bondage”.
The members of the White Lodge are All One in Christ Consciousness.
Edgar Cayce once revealed that when he spoke from a trance it as the Great White Brotherhood that spoke through him on matters other than health related inquiries and it as Edgar that gave the date of birth of Yeshu’a/Jesus as March 19th in the year we recognize as 3 A.D., Julian calendar [and also gave the time of King Herod’s death as sometime after mid 6 A.D., from a stomach cancer.]. I just figured out what time of day… i.e. Pluto conjunct Ascendant… and that’s all it took, as Yeshu’a/Jesus was affected by all the planets, including the most rare, that of Pluto, [as I am too and others are even no beginning to be born in greater numbers, as Cayce predicted for later in this 21st Century.]
So, here’s the Sabian Symbol, from Dane Rudhyar’s book, “An Astrological Mandala”.
“
(AQUARIUS 30°): DEEPLY BOOTED IN THE PAST OF A VERY ANCIENT CULTURE, A SPIRITUAL BROTHERHOOD IN WHICH MANY INDIVIDUAL MINDS ARE MERGED INTO THE GLOWING LIGHT OF A UNANIMOUS CONSCIOUSNESS IS REVEALED TO ONE WHO HAS EMERGED SUCCESSFULLY FROM HIS METAMORPHOSIS.
KEYNOTE: The ability for the person with an open mind and a deep feeling for self-transcendence to come in contact with higher forms of existence.
The originally recorded Sabian symbol stated: “The field of Ardath in bloom,” which referred to a scene in an occult novel by Marie Corelli centering upon ancient Babylon. The reference may well have been a “blind” inasmuch as Marc Jones has stressed his inner contact with a Brotherhood with Babylonian (or “Sabian”) roots. A spiritual Brotherhood consitutes a state of “multi-unity” — i.e. a multiplicity of individuals, if one thinks of the paths they trod to reach their final metamorphosis, but a unity of consciousness and “Soul” —thus unanimity (“anima” meaning Soul). In this spiritual Whole each unit is a recognizable “form” or entity if one looks at it with the eyes of personality; but when seen through a unified spiritual vision or from a distance, the Whole appears to be one single area of radiant light. Similarly, when studied by the modern physicist, light can be apprehended either as a stream of identifiable particles (photons) or as one continuous wave. Whether it is seen as one or the other depends on the point of view.
This is the last and culminating symbol of Scene Twenty-two of the cyclic ritual. This is indeed a fitting symbol, as the number 22 symbolizes all forms of mastery. At any level, it is a symbol of spiritual group fulfillment — of CONSCIOUS TOTALITY OF BEING.”
