| Esoteric Astrology - The Science of Triangles - Conclusions |
| I cannot too strongly repeat that esoteric astrology is
entirely concerned with the forces and energies which affect the consciousness aspect of
the human being, and condition the personality life. This is the point which must be
considered above all else. In other words, esoteric astrology is concerned with the soul
and not with the form and, therefore, all that I have to say refers to consciousness, to
its expansion, to its effect upon its vehicles, the form, and - in the last analysis (as
will be later established) - with the Science of Initiation. This I have earlier pointed
out, but the idea is so new and the approach so universal or cosmic, that it is not easy
for those trained in modern exoteric astrology truly to comprehend the significance of
this teaching. In considering the Triangles, which I have chosen to use as the theme in
elucidating this immense subject, this emphasis upon the consciousness aspect must not be
forgotten. For the remainder of this section on the Science of Triangles, I shall take up those triangles which are at this time and in this world cycle producing effects in the human consciousness. These effects are of two kinds: those which are general, not so easily discernible and which affect the masses of men, and those which are more specific in their results, more tangibly effective and which serve to condition the consciousness of the world aspirants, disciples and initiates. Today, this dual movement of energies is going on, producing a slow, steady awakening of the mass consciousness so that individual self-consciousness on a large scale will be the result and the more rapid stimulation of [485] the already awakened consciousness of advanced humanity so that initiation will be achieved. The effectiveness of this dual process can be seen if it is realized that three great signs - Leo, Sagittarius, Aquarius - are today exceedingly active and working in close relation with each other. They are the three signs whose energies are affecting humanity as a whole - as a kingdom in nature. Leo: the sign of the self-conscious individual is potent in its mass effect and today, through the stress of circumstance and the dire results of certain events, thousands of men and women are stepping out of the ranks of the mass-conscious herd, and out of the deep sleep of irresponsibility and becoming aware of themselves as detached, functioning entities. Sagittarius is powerfully affecting the world aspirants and leading them towards those attitudes of mind which will produce an unswerving allegiance to the spiritual values and an unalterable adherence to the good of humanity. Aquarius is - with equal potency - affecting the world disciples and initiates, leading them to world service on a large scale, producing group activity and that living usefulness which is the hallmark of the pledged disciple. The influence of these three constellations is felt through their esoteric planets, and the mass movement in consciousness (for which Leo is responsible) can be noted as possible even by the novice when he realizes that the ruling planets in Leo are, from all three angles - exoteric, esoteric and hierarchical - the Sun. The mass movement towards individual self-consciousness is today enormously intensified as is the paralleling individual movement towards initiation. Leo appears again in another important triangle at this time: Aries, Leo, Virgo - a triangle which potently aids in inaugurating the New Age. That New Age will be [486] distinguished by a truly self-aware humanity, conditioned by a steadily manifesting Christ consciousness. The potency of Aries, as it initiates those happenings which will set in motion the causes that will produce the New Age, can be seen today in the trend of all the new movements, in the formulation of the various world orders, in the discoveries of science and in the emergence of the new types in the different kingdoms in nature. This activity has only been felt since 1835; the potency of Leo can be traced since then in the vast number of people who are achieving the integration of the personality and becoming self-conscious, as well as in the emergence of thousands of self-conscious world aspirants who are subordinating gradually their integrated personalities to the good of the group. The influence of Virgo appears in the many religious, spiritual and mental organizations and movements which indicate to directly the awakening of the Christ consciousness in humanity. These triangles thus can be seen as vibrant living factors, producing world changes and giving a tremendous push onward to human unfoldment. |
