Twofold Zeus and Soul Vehicles Nested within the Metaphysical Chart

Twofold Zeus

The twelvefold circle is divided into four quadrants, each one labeled with one of the four states of consciousness: turiya, prajna, taijasa, and vaishvanara. The twelve zodiacal signs and their short-form meanings according to T. S. Row are listed outside the circle. The dignities of the metaphysical chart are also listed on the outside of the circle rather than in four concentric circles.

Inside of the circle is a vesica, which is divided by the lines of the twelve houses. On the outside of the vesica are the detriments, which represent Universal Soul (the Nature detriments are in parentheses).

Inside the vesica is an ellipse. On the outside of the ellipse are the dignities of houses 9-12 distributed so that the house-9 dignities are in the first quadrant, the house-10 dignities are in the second quadrant, the house-11 dignities are in the third quadrant, and the house-12 dignities are in the fourth quadrant. Damiani sometimes refers to this configuration of dignities as the “Jupiter ring” or “Demiurgic Intellect ring.”

Inside the ellipse are the dignities of Jupiter (the Jupiter henad), as well as the planets in fall (but Mars in house 3 should be in house 4, where it’s in fall). The falls represent the various vehicles of the human soul.
