Excellent presentation! I heard Christopher Warnock refer to the homeless as “Saturns Children” in a discussion about remediation.

This is so interesting. I started learning Bazi astrology first (a type of chinese astrology) before studying western astrology and their views on fate are REALLY different than those of some more traditional western astrologers. Basically, a lot of astrologers (especially medieval or hellenistic) think that everything is fated, some even say that we have free will but that free will is also fated. The Asian view is that astrology is just the time (heaven realm) component and the qualities of time. You can't change it and you can't influence it. But what happens in the end depends on your environment and on how the qualities of time manifest on that specific environment (earth realm, traditional feng shui studies this, not the "put a red lamp here" crap) and it also depends on what you choose to do about it or how you act or provoke the event (man realm). You can't influence your environment, but you can choose to move to another place to make things manifest differently and you have total control over your actions. So, there are 3 realms, heaven, earth and man, and some things are fixed (the qualities of time), others are somewhat fixed (your environment) and others are up for you to decide (your actions). Usually when you lack a certain element or a certain element is excessive in your Bazi chart (the same as having a badly placed planet on your western chart), you need to develop the best qualities associated with that archetype because you lack them, and learn skills or do activities related to that archetype to bring balance to your life. Bazi is very concerned with balancing the elements or archetypes. For example, if you had a badly placed mars, you need to develop courage, discipline and maybe practice diligence and physical exercise/martial arts to become strong, that way mars things in your life should improve because you now are capable and knowledgeable to deal with them. In the east they actually see astrology as a tool to better your life and use it in a more entrepreneurial and "do it yourself way" than in the west, in which seems that the birth chart is the ONLY thing that matters in life instead of being just that, a time measurement, that depends on your environment and yourself to become something concrete. Conversely, if you want to know which career or skill would bring you the most success in life, looking at the best element (or best placed planet) would tell about qualities and skills that come natural to you, so those could be capitalized on to bring about change and success.

Ditto. This is a new and inspiring view for someone who has studied all types of western astrology and was having difficulty integrating the fate vs. free will dynamic. Much appreciation. 🙏

@@tracysternburg in Western astrology a lot of people feel like this, I felt that way too even after leaning Chinese astrology first. We have to remember that astrology is a part of life and not life itself. In the west you only have astrology and maybe divination as metaphysical subjects so it's easy to get in the mindset of "it's either this or that" about fate. But in Chinese metaphysics you have different subjects that study everything that comprises life: heaven/time (astrology, the most used systems are Bazi and Zi Wei Dou Shu which is similar to our astrology), earth/environment (feng shui, which has a TON of different types, depending on if you're studying land forms, internal forms or cyclical changes), man (meditation practices, both ancient and modern medicine, self development practices, even psychology can fit here) and the spiritual realm (yi jing/i ching, other types of divination and Qi Men Dun Jia). Astrology only studies one part of the equation and it's foolish to think that by itself it can decode everything about a person or the universe, because it only studies the qualities and predispositions of time. A lot of people in secluded tribes in Africa have the same chart as Beyoncé does but have completely different lives. Why? Because they're born in a completely different environment and have made completely different choices. For the full picture you must know the person and it's environment, and even old western astrology books refer this, always adapt interpretations to the person and her environment. Fire (spirituality, divination), air (heaven, astrology, time), water (man, emotions, choices), earth (environment, opportunities).

I'm from the Philippines so I was exposed first in Feng Shui and Chinese Astrology and later I studied Hellenistic Astrology. Everything you said here is true. ✨

I miss you on Twitter. Learned a lot from you there, like corrections to common misconceptions such as astrology not coming from mythology and Scorpio only being associated with the eagle in thr 1930s and I really liked your run down of the basic natures of the planets. I referred to your tweets in online discussions for great those golden tidbits... 😔
