The Spiritual Nature of Astrology
Most people think of astrology as a map of one’s personality, gaining insight into important relationships (Synastry) or of predicting one’s future. While all three are valid assumptions, on a deeper level, an astrological ‘map’ is a picture of the karma one has created for oneself in previous lives and how that karma is expressed in the form of both abilities and challenges within any one personality within the present lifetime.
This PP presentation focuses upon how astrology, via the natal chart can illuminate how one’s karma is to be used in this lifetime in its role as a spiritual teacher. It explains the relationship between the individual and broader cosmic forces which help to guide one’s life and one's reaction to life.
Various aspects of one’s personality, innate and potential, and the social and environmental stages upon which the drama of one’s life is played out are seen in the meanings and relationships of the planets, signs, and the houses within the Natal chart.
The Natal chart in astrology is thus seen as a portal or interface between greater cosmic forces and the individual as he or she manifests into another lifetime. Go here to see the PP Presentation on the Spiritual Nature of Astrology.
