[Classnotes AB 1984 0514 Begin]

5/14/84 Septiles

[Note: Sabian degrees are from Marc Edmund Jones, The Astrology of Concepts.]

Gandhi -- Sun septile Moon -- pure idea

Wagner -- Sun bi-septile Moon -- idea as applying to oneself

Napoleon -- Sun tri-septile Moon -- idea as applying to others

Gandhi

Idea of non-violence was pure, bore as a truth -- idea was impersonal.

[Sun, Libra 9, "Three Old Masters hang together in an art gallery; they have a room to themselves and seem to hold converse."]

[Moon, Leo 20, "A group of prehistoric American Indians are seen in the course of an elaborate and impressive invocation to the sun."]

Wagner

Idea of mythic consciousness was pertaining only to himself. Moon degree allowed him to disregard social norms or impact on others.

[Sun, Gemini 1, "A glass-bottomed boat drifts silently and easily over a constantly shifting panorama of marine wonders."]

[Moon, Aquarius 17, "The master is sleeping in the little hut near his newly-discovered gold mine with his faithful dog on guard."]

Napoleon

Moon -- tea leaves -- destiny. [Capricorn 29, "Afternoon tea is served in a gypsy parlor patronized by socialites and here a young lady reads the tea leaves."]

Sun -- horseback rider -- free will. [Leo 23, "The scene is a circus-crowded with spectators, and in a moment of hush a bareback rider performs extraordinarily."]

A man capable of reading his destiny and changing it.
