Heart-disease has become a big problem in the new age. Hospitals specializing in heart treatment are rapidly increasing. Reason for spurt in heart-related ailments may be many but the common reasons are mental tensions, increase in workload and rich diet.

Dr. K. S. Charak in his book “Essentials of Medical Astrology” has divided heart problems into three types. The most common disease can be “ischaemic heart disease” (IHD) or the “coronary artery disease” (CAD). This develops due to the obstruction of blood vessels which supply blood to the heart. Another more serious ailment is “congenital heart disease” (CHD) which generally requires surgical intervention. The third common heart ailment is “cardiomyopathy”. This happens to be a genetic disorder. Here the heart becomes larger in size but becomes ineffective.

In Vedic astrology the system of “Kaalpurusha” (time personified) is followed. The parts of human body in this system are supposed to be ruled by different signs of the zodiac. Leo is the sign which governs the heart. Leo is ruled by the Sun. Therefore, the role of the Sun and the Leo sign become crucial in understanding heart ailments. Normally, an affliction to the fifth house may also indicate heart-related problems as Leo is the fifth sign of the zodiac.

Since Sun signifies the heart, the analysis of its state in the horoscope becomes important. Sun hemmed by malefic planets or Sun afflicted by malefic planets either by placement or aspect may indicate ailments related to heart. The most common affliction can be association or aspect of Mars or Saturn on Sun. The Sun in “Rahu / Ketu” axis can also cause heart-related problems. Debilitation of the Sun or its affliction by the sixth, eighth or the twelfth lord can cause ailments related to heart.

Further, the fifth house is highly relevant for judging heart disease. Placement of malefic planets in the fifth house, affliction of fifth lord by malefic planets either by placement, association or aspect can also signify heart disease. The affliction to fourth house and fourth lord may indicate open-heart surgery. The fourth house represents the chest area of the “Kaalpurusha”. Dr. K. S. Charak is of the opinion that the affliction of the fourth house both from “lagna” or the Sun may indicate chest complications or surgical treatment of heart disease. Benefic influence on the fourth house, the Sun, the fifth house and the fifth lord indicates conservative treatment and recovery.

After judging the afflictions indicated above, it becomes important to know the timing of the onset of the problem. For this the most common way is to see the “dasa” (method of timing event in Vedic astrology) scheme. Dasa of the fifth lord or the Sun, or dasa of planets afflicting the fifth house, the fifth lord or the Sun may indicate the beginning of heart problems.

The most important astrological remedy for heart issues is to strengthen the natal Sun in the horoscope. This can be done by worshiping the rising Sun and allowing the early rays of Sun to fall on the heart region. Morning walk, yoga and exercises may be helpful.

Jupiter, also known as Guru is considered to be one of the most benefic planets in astrology. It is the largest planet in the solar system, and is nearest in comparison with the Sun in regard to its size. It takes around 12 years to revolve around the Sun, which in other words also means that it remains in each zodiac sign for one year approximately, according to transit or Gochar. It is considered to be a teacher or a ‘Guru’ as the name suggests. Jupiter in any Birth Chart-Horoscope, if placed strong by sign placement and House, and if well aspected, makes the native truthful and honest, and provides him ‘Divine Grace’.

Basics

Jupiter is also known as ‘Brihaspati’. It rules over the two signs of the zodiac – Sagittarius and Pisces. It achieves Exaltation in the sign of the Moon, which is Cancer and its deep Exaltation point is at five degrees of Cancer. It gets debilitation in the sign of Saturn – Capricorn. Jupiter achieves directional strength in the Lagna or the 1st House. An Archer symbolizes Sagittarius, and therefore those natives who are ruled by an Elevated Jupiter in their charts will hit or achieve their targets more easily than other natives. Similarly, the Pisces being a Watery sign and the symbol being Fishes, Jupiter also represents expression or speech. 

Jupiter is the reason or cause for famous Yogas like ‘Gajakesari Yoga’ or a Pancha Maha Purusha Yoga like ‘Hamsa Yoga’ among many others.

It is a Male planet and is of ‘Sattva Guna’. Thus, those with a well placed Jupiter would be good, honest, religious, God fearing, and wise advisers having peaceful temperaments.

Jupiter denotes the North-East direction. Those who are acquainted with Vaastu, are aware that this is the most auspicious part of the Plot, which is known as ‘Eeshan’ where an image of the Lord one worships, is kept for daily worship.

Special Aspects of Jupiter

All the planets have been allotted a common ‘drishti’, which is known as aspect. Aspect means to influence another planet, House or zodiac sign. Normally, every planet has been given the 7th House power of aspect, which means that it can aspect the planet seated in the 7th House and sign from its own placement. But Jupiter has been given special powers of the 5th and 9th House aspect apart from the 7th House. Therefore, if Jupiter is well placed, suppose in the 5th House, then it will aspect the 9th House as well as the Lagna or 1st House, making a complete Trikona aspect, plus its aspect to the 11th House of gains. This can be considered as a very fortunate Horoscope indeed from all counts, material as well as spiritual.

Nakshatras or Constellations owned by Jupiter

The Constellations owned by Jupiter are, Punarvasu, Visakha and Purva Bhadra. If Jupiter is the Lord of a Benefic House in a Horoscope, and if three or more planets are placed in the constellations owned by Jupiter, it would then create a very good impact on the positivity of the Horoscope and the destiny of the native.

Astrological and mythological associations

In mythology, Brihaspati is the son of Angirasa (Anga- physical body; rasa – the fluid in the body). There is a continuous secretion and flow of fluid in the body, in sorrow or joy, fear or anger, hope or disappointments. The food intake is the source of the fluid (Rasa), and this exercises influence over the body and mind (Chittavriiti), which is why Brihaspati also concerns our food, life and living. It gives power to sustain, thus connecting to the liver in the body that sustains life.

Brihaspati is also addressed as Bachaspati or master of speech, or Lord of language, eloquence and wisdom. Here ‘Bach’ represents ‘Bak’ or commonly known as ‘Vak’ or speech, and ‘Pati’ means Master. Like water travels freely in the sign of Pisces owned by Jupiter, Birhaspati represents expressions.

It is characterized as ‘Dev Guru’ or the one who gives guidance to the Devtas – Gods. Hence, those with positive influence of Jupiter are also religious in their temperaments. 

Jupiter signifies

Being the Lord of the Natural ‘Bhagyasthana’ in the Kala Purusha Kundli, Jupiter is a significator of good fortune.
The 9th House represents long journeys, and so does Jupiter.
The 9th House represents ‘Dharma’ and Jupiter represents righteousness or justice. It represents higher consciousness.
Jupiter is the karaka for gold, wealth or finance.
In a Horoscope of a female, it is additionally the karaka for the husband.
Jupiter is karaka for child.
When we make Prashna or Horary charts the above karakas help in determining a positive answer easily if they appear in the ruling planets.

Body and Health related Significations

Growth and accumulation is the forte of Jupiter. It rules over different body parts like the liver, tumours, malignancy, organs of hearing, lower abdomen, hips, circulation of blood, blood pressure, arteries, and fat in the body. This is the reason why those natives having influence of Jupiter on their Lagnas tend to develop fat or become bulky in their middle ages. The 9th House in the natural Horoscope of Kala Purusha Kundli appears in Sagittarius, which is ruled by Jupiter. It represents the portion of legs above the knees. Hence, this part of the legs too is covered as territory of Jupiter along with the lower portion of the feet, which represents the last part of the body downwards, just as Pisces, ruled by Jupiter is the last sign of the zodiac. Elephantitis in legs is governed by Jupiter. Jaundice too is ruled by it as Jupiter rules over the  liver as mentioned above.

Other matters represented by Jupiter

Jupiter represents temples, courts, colleges and schools, big palatial buildings, and all places where religious discourses are held.  Construction of schools, colleges, universities, charitable institutions, hospitals, sanatoriums, banks, temples, church, mosque will all come in the domain of Jupiter.
Logic is perfectly represented in astrological inferences. The 9th House Sagittarius also signifies higher education. Therefore, Jupiter represents college and education.
The 9th House denotes long travel and all matters related to travelling to a distant place.
The 9th House represents father in Hindu Astrology, and father is also known as the first Guru; hence, ones ‘Guru’ or ‘Preceptor’ are represented by Jupiter.
The 9th House represents religion and the 12th House Pisces represents discourse and philanthropic work. Jupiter is thus connected to discourses or Sermons as well.
The 12th House also represents investments on long term basis, so one has to connect this logic with Jupiter. The 12th House deals with expenditures, capital investments, outflow of finances, foreign exchange, the Reserve Bank, Forex, rise in Shares and Stocks, are all governed by Jupiter.
Since the 12th zodiac sign, Pisces is ruled by Jupiter, all aspects of the 12th House, like foreign travels, hospitalizations, the other world, Moksha or Salvation is also ruled by Jupiter.
Jupiter is the largest planet and has traits of expansion, therefore whatever it connects with, would be big, vast or enormous.
Since Jupiter is large or expressive – becoming famous, gaining respect in society, promotions, progress is all governed by Jupiter.

Professions connected with Jupiter

Any profession connected to religion, preaching, priestly professions come under domain of Jupiter. Since the zone of knowledge is also symbolized by Jupiter, any profession connected to educational institutions too come under the sphere of Jupiter. Since Jupiter is connected to ‘Dharma’ or righteousness being a ‘Dev Guru’ or teacher, all professions connected to law, courts of law, comes under its province. Since Jupiter is karaka of children, all professions connected to child rearing and nurturing like mother-toddler play schools etc, come under the realm of Jupiter. So does Navy, foreign travel related business, since the 9th House of travels is ruled by Jupiter as owner of Sagittarius the 9th zodiac sign. Since Jupiter rules over fat, all professions connected to products which increase fat in the body, like trade in milk, ghee, sweetmeats, almonds, cashew nuts, and peanuts, etc. Jupiter being Lord of the 12th House and Pisces sign in natural Horoscope, all professions connected to hospitals, prisons, publicity, foreign trade, ship building, offshore drilling, development, etc. come under Jupiter’s domain.
To summarize, all professions connected to legal affairs, Brahmins, teaching, scriptures, lawyers, advocates, interest, rent, banking and finance, ministers, administrators, bankers, revenue department, treasury, economics, gold, turmeric, rubber, metals, springs, jewelry, shipping business, and foreign affairs are under Jupiter’s domain.

To Conclude

There are other technical matters which may transform the effects of Jupiter that may undergo a change due to aspects and conjunctions from other planets. Jupiter in mundane astrology too is a subject matter of importance. But these are issues of study, to be dealt separately.
In individual horoscopes, a strong Jupiter is synonymous to a strong promise and assurance of divine interventions and providential help available to a native in times of stress and strife in his life, provided all other planetary positions are congenial. It is also an indicator of your past ‘Purva Poonya’ or results of past good actions now bearing fruit in this birth.
Jupiter is considered as one of the most benefic planets in astrology. It is the largest planet in the solar system, and comes nearest in comparison with the Sun in regard to its size. Ganesha throws light on how Jupiter plays a significant role in matters like body and health, choosing a profession and religious inclination.

With the title, like cancer, could hardly believe that is a sign of the zodiac will be applied to the warm, happy family life, but it is. This, of course, because the signs of the zodiac have been long before the disease such as cancer, have been identified.

So, what do we know about the people born under the sign of Cancer? They are an interesting mix of features that create what is often called the perfect housewife. They love to educate and routine. They protect those in their care, often to the detriment of their own needs and ambitions.

On the other hand, people born under the sign of Cancer is not very ambitious. They are good workers, because they tend to “glue” that holds the working group, but they are not particularly be a person stepping over others to get to the top ranks. They certainly can do this as a big cancer from the past, as Julius Caesar can confirm, but they are less likely, because their interest is focused more on family relationships.

A classic example of recent cancer walk the path of fame and wealth is guitarist Jeff Beck. Considered a contemporary of Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton and other greats, it is much less known, because he was home body. Instead of touring, he is usually happy to sit at home and tinker with his collection of cars and family. He even said in an interview that he was only released albums, when he needed the money, not for the love of art! Ah, Cancer through!

The average cancer is neither adventurous nor spontaneous decisions. They prefer to have regular and stick to it. In conjunction with their upbringing of feelings, it leads to believe that they are good housewives, but men and women. Their houses are usually one, all children in the neighborhood will eventually meet after school and on weekends.

Given this description, it probably will not surprise you to learn that on average, cancer is a fan of the holidays. This is the triumph, as a rule, bring the family. From birth until Christmas, Cancer is a happy man. This does not apply to all holidays. New Year Celebration is less interesting for them because it is not a family holiday.

Cancer is a terrible destination in the world of health. In the world of relationships, however, is something you should ask when you’re ready to settle down, have a family and grow old.

But Sex Isn’t The Only Thing To Worry About On April 26, 2010 Which Is Exactly 11 Days From The Tax Return Deadline (April 15, 2010). Keep In Mind That 11 Is The Number Of The House Of Aquarius. Aquarius Is Enlightenment, Technology And Humane Actions. May People Are Familiar With The Numbers 11:11. Tax Concerns Are What Brought Jesus’ Family To Bethlehem.

Uranus In Pisces And Aries In House 8 

Jupiter In Pisces In House 8 

We Also See Pisces Associated With Two Other Planets In This Eight House (Scorpio). So As I Said In The Earlier Paragraphs, The 12th House Of Pisces And The 8th House Of Scorpio Will Be Filled With Conflicting And Confrontational Emotions. 

Uranus Is The Planet Of Sudden Events, Electricity, Earthquakes, And Opposition To The “Status Quo”. Aries Is The Aggression Sign. Pisces Is Usually The Sign Of Inspiration And Spirituality. The “Confrontational” Energies Sent Into Pisces’ 12th House Means That Even Areas Of Spirituality (Such As The Church) Will Experiences These Is Confrontational (Aries-Gemini-Drama Energies Sent Into The 12th House), Overturning (Uranus) Energies. 

Jupiter Is The Planet Of Good Fortune And Expansion. Unfortunately, Jupiter Will Have No Choice But To Expand The Aggressive, Confrontation Energy That Will Be In Pisces And In The 12th House Ruled By Pisces. On This Day, I’m Going To Try To Stay Away From My Sis As She’s A Pisces. Unfortunately I Will Still “Catch It” From The Virgos In The Family. 

Summary 6: 1) Woe To Pisces And The Twelfth House-Expect Expansive Drama, 2) Expect Some From Of Energy Problems Or Announcements And Or Earthquakes On April 26, 2010 (Uranus) 3) Expect More “Shake-Ups” In Religions And Spiritual Locations (Scientology Was Recently “Brought Into Analysis” By The News), 4) Some Noticeable Form Of Rebellion, Outcry, And/Or Revolts Will Also Occur 

The Universe Focuses On The Seventh House (Libra) 

Chiron In Pisces And Aquarius In House 7 

Neptune Bordering Aquarius And Pisces In House 7

Lilith Retrograde-Neptune Aquarius In House 7 

Note: Please Keep In Mind That April 26th Is 7 Days Past April 19. April 19 Is An Impactful Date In American And World History (Do Your Research). 

The 7th House Is Ruled By Aquarius. Aquarius Is The Sign Of Enlightenment, Humane Actions, And Technology. The 7th House Influences To Marriage, Parnerships, Or Joint Ventures Of Any Kind. It Describes How You Interact With People And How Others Tend To Regard You (The Descendant). The Seventh House Is Associated With Legal Matters, Negotiations, Contracts, Open Enemies And All Any Type Of Confrontation. 

So The Universe Will Now Be Focusing On Enlightenment, Marriage, Law, Partnerships, And Associations. 

Aquarius And Pisces-This Association Causes Enlightenment And Spiritual Inspirations. This Is The First Significant Time That We See The Universe Offering “Hope” For April 26, 2010. 

Neptune Is The Planet Of Dreams And Ideas. Neptune Is The Ruler Of Pisces. We Can Be Glad That Despite The Anxiety That Will Occur In The 12th House (Pisces), We Will Still Have Hopes Of Inspiration And Spirituality. 

Chiron Bordering Pisces And Aquarius In The Seventh House-The Universe Is Aware Of The Drama That Will Occur In The Twelfth House (Pisces). Thus The Universe Will Send Chiron The Healer Into Both Houses. 

Lilith Is The Black Or Dark Side Of The Moon. Lilith Supports The Individuals In Families. In Fact, Lilith Will “Kill” To Protect These Individuals Associated With Lilith. The Universe Will Send Lilith Retrograde Into The Seventh House. Lilith Is Usually An Aggressive Supporter Of Individuals And Family. It Appears That The Universe Is Telling Lilith To “Take The Day Off”. Chiron Is All The Support And Healing That Is Needed Here. 

Summary 7: Although Limited, There Will Be Inspirational And Enlightening “Vibes” In The 12th (Pisces) And 7th (Libra-Partnerships, Legal Matters, Marriage-Family). Try Your Best To “Tap Into” These

Positive (Aquarius), Inspirational (Pisces) Energies. 

The Universe’s Focuses On The Fifth House (Leo) 

Leo’s Fifth House Influences, Fun, Children, And Creativity. This Is My Sign And My House (LOL). 

Ceres In Capricorn In House V 

Pluto Retrograde In Capricorn In House V 

True North Node-The Node The Universe Is Focusing On In Capricorn House V 

Capricorn Is My Moon Sign. The Moon Influences A Person’s Subconscious And Emotions. Ironically, My Subconscious Will Also Be Influenced By The “Drama” Of The Day’s (April 26, 2010) Twelfth House-Pisces. Capricorn Is The Sign Of The Business World. The Universe Has Been “Judging” The Business World For Most Of 2010. Capricorn Is Also My Imum Coeli (Ic). The Ic Is The Essence And The Subconscious Of The Person. 

Pluto Retrograde In Capricorn In House V (Leo)-As You Can See My Business Affairs (Capricorn) And My Subconscious (Pluto Retrograde And Scorpio’s Eight House) Will Be Affected By This Retrograde. The Universe Will Not Allow A Forward Moving Progression Energy Until Its Judgment Of The Secular And Spiritual Business World Is Complete. Pluto Rules The Supernatural (Unknown, Mysterious, Strange) And Can Be An Eliminator (Judge-Tarot Card #15). 

The True North Node Is The Zodiac Sign That The Universe Is Focusing On. The North Node Is Capricorn In The Fifth House (Leo). So On April 26, 2010 The Universe Will Be Focusing On My Zodiac Sign (Leo), My Fifth House (Leo), And My Imum Coeli And Moon Sign (Subconscious)-Capricorn 

Ceres In Capricorn In Fifth House-Ceres Is The Asteroid Which Gives Motherly Nurturing To Adults. 

Summary 8: 1) Leos Will Generally Feel The “Spacey” Affects Of The Pluto Retrograde, 2) Leos Whose Sign And Houses Match Up With Those In This Article Will Specifically And Definitely Face “Issues” On April 26, 2010, 3) Leos Minimize The “Confusing”, “Conflicting”, And “Spacey” Energies Of The Day With Optimistic Ways, 4) Leos Tap Into The “Motherly Nurturing” Of Ceres-Be Sure To Do Something For Yourself Or Allow Someone To Do Something “Nurturing” For You. Leos Are Always “Boldly” Caring For Others And Often Fail To “Nurture” Themselves. 

The Universe Focuses On The Second House (Taurus) 

Saturn Retrograde In Virgo And Libra In House 2 

Once Again We See The Universe Focusing In On Taurus On April 26, 2010. Taurus Is The Sign Of The Hard Working. The Second House Is Ruled By Taurus And Concerns Financial Systems And Banking. The Finances Are Usually Those Earned By The Person’s Hard Work. 

Virgo And Gemini Are Ruled By Planet Mercury. Keep In Mind That Mercury Will Be Retrograde In Taurus On April 26, 2010. Thus, Virgo Will Be Affected By Both Mercury’s And Saturn’s Retrograde.

Libra And Taurus Are Both Ruled By Planet Venus. Venus Will Be In Both Gemini (Mercury) And Taurus (Ruled By Venus) In The 10th House Of Capricorn. 

Once Again We Can See How Intent The Universe Is On “Holding Back” The Business World (Capricorn) Until Its Judgment Is Complete. This Can Be Either Secular Or Spiritual Business (Such As The Church). 

Also Saturn Rules Capricorn (Business Sign). 

Summary 9: April 26, 2010 Will Be A Difficult Day For The Business World. Read The Previous Summaries (Above) For Advice On How To Cope. 

Completing This Analysis With 3 Other Associations And Houses 

Moon In Libra In House 3- House 3 Is Ruled By Gemini. House 3 Controls Communications And Short Distant Travels. The Moon Controls The Subconscious And Libra Is A Sign Of Justice And Balance. We Already Know That The Gemini (3rd) House Will Be “Pulled Back” Due To The Mercury Retrograde. The Universe Is Encouraging Us To Be Fair Minded During This Retrograde (Sluggish And Confusing Energy). 

Pallas Retrograde In House 4-This Is An Important Association. House 4 Is Ruled By Cancer. Cancer Is My True Node Or The Zodiac Sign I Must Attain To In This Life. The True North Node Is Also How The Public Views One’s Achievements. Pallas Is The Asteroid That Oversees How A Father Relates To Their Daughters. Yet, Pallas Will Be Retrograde On April 26, 2010. 

Summary 10: In Light All Of The “Drama” That Will Be Going On With In The Family On April 26, 2010, Fathers Be Very Careful How You Act And React When Communicating With Your Daughters. 

Fortune-The Abilities Or Area That Will Bring You Fortune Capricorn House 6-The Sixth House Is Ruled By Virgo. The Sixth House Rules Health, Co Workers, Small Animals, Military, You Vulnerabilities And Stomach Concerns 

Summary 11: A Person May Experience Some Kind Of Fortune (Benefit Or Recognition) In The Areas Above. Be Very Mindful That Capricorn Is Presently “Held Back” By The Universe So Any “Fortune” Will Not Be As Great As It Could Be.

Enigma in Stone – Lingering Symbol of the Ages
If you can imagine it, stretch your mind, and think for a second. The Sphinx has been stumbled upon, lived next to, marched toward and viewed from afar, for ages. Looming peacefully in the sands, it has been a winsome illusory desert vision, and something to build around — for so long that mostly, it has been said about it: “Who built that?” and “How long has that been here?”
Solomon’s Look Across Gaza
“There is no new thing under the sun. Is there a thing of which one might say, see this, it is new? It has already been for the ages which were before.”
—- Ecclesiastes 1:10

Was Solomon referring to the Sphinx? He was probably musing that his lofty ambitions and his sense that he was doing God’s will, was cast against, as a backdrop — the ageless Sphinx. After all, his eyes were focused on building the Temple and becoming known throughout History as the one who would build this magnificent tribute to God. The signs of the Zodiac were being placed on the floor of his temple, and he was undoubtedly a Kabbalist and privy to all the ancient texts that Moses and Aaron knew of and the oral tales which came from Egypt (Moses being a Prince of Egypt and Joseph, being a Pharoah and Abraham being an ally). He was undoubtedly intimate with Egypt. This idea is not thought about by modern Christianity. They want to think of Moses and the people in the Wilderness as a Tabula Rasa (blank slate). But, that topic is for another article

Since he was focused on the plan for Man that was revealed through his studies, he most undoubtedly was as cognizant of the Sphinx and its meaning as any at the time. Since the Egyptians were focused on their own polytheistic panoply of gods, they might not even have been aware of the meaning of the Sphinx as Solomon might have been. Not that people have not had theories. For heaven’s sake, the Sphinx probably started the proclivity of scholars to boldly pronounce their scholarly opinions about origins — as this article itself can only be a matter of opinion and tradition and history and symbology and archaeological study. Solomon and David knew that the – “heaven God’s glory do declare”, but they did not have archaeologists. However, they were most likely privy to ancient Egyptian lore, much of which has been lost now forever.

Ten Thousand BC or 2500 BC?

There is a whole group of people speculating that the Sphinx shows “water wear” and that the only way that could happen would be to go back into pre-history and declare that it was built around 10,000 BC — the last time that that area had lakes and rivers in abundance. Of course if that were true, it would overturn all of history, so its not likely to be met with acceptance any time soon. The 2500 BC idea is based upon more orthodox views of when it would most likely have been built during the time of the Pharoahs (Khafre and Khufu). Regardless of its age, the fact of it, its symbols, beauty and majesty and mystery will continue to beguile man and mystify scholars.

The Head of Virgo

Since the study of astrology and astronomy predates most modern religions, the symbols which work the best are for that time are astrological. The symbol of the Virgin is that it carries the Son (the Messiah figure) (Madonna and child images are rife throughout ancient ideas across the planet). Deeper than that though there is the essential picture of the Soul being housed in the Virginal Human Body. The Virgo personifies innocence. They are the guileless critics of the zodiac, viewing the whole realm as worthy of improvement that they can provide. The confidence and boldness coupled with wide-eyed wonder make the Virgo a puzzle of sorts. If one uses this image to construct a picture of the young human soul, full of certainty and simultaneous wonder, you can see how this image contains all those elements. The young soul is ready to learn, and its destiny will carry it through multiple experiences.

Since cannons of Napoleon, and ancient men of malice have tried to defile the face of the Sphinx, we cannot now see how beautiful and “Mona Lisa like” the head and face of the Sphinx must have been ages ago. It was probably an arresting face of beauty on the body of this lion. You can see the vividness of this message: The young Soul, full of positiveness and self assurance undertakes the adventurous journey and progresses through the astrological experiences brought through all 12 signs, until it reaches the Kingly Leo.

The Body of the Leo

As humankind progresses through their life times and develops and grows in maturity, it finally reaches an apex of development. (Leos can stop polishing their claws in pride). It is the stated intent of the Divine, in other words that we succeed. That we can look forward to an immense sense of happiness and accomplishment and puff up our chests with the divine breath of God. Not the human pride, so easily extinguished with defeats, set backs and yes, even death itself; but the realization that our goal down here is to fully reach a state in which we are purged, healthy, strong and full of the realization of redemption and transformation.

This you can read on the Watcher Website:

“The pictures found today in the zodiac were not developed by the Greeks, but were in place perhaps as early as 4000 BC, predating even the civilizations of Sumeria. These (zodiacal images) were not merely arranged in haphazard order to aid in the tracking of star movements, but with the purpose of depicting an epic narrative. Authors like Bullinger and Seiss have suggested that there is a deeper meaning, one that goes beyond even the most illuminated of occult interpretations. The zodiac is a pictorial story of God’s plan of salvation on earth. The key to understanding the celestial zodiac is found in ancient depictions of a mythical creature called — a SPHINX.”

Theories as to Origin

Those who think that Ancient Aliens established humanity in these monolithic kingdoms, see the Sphinx and its mysteries as validation of the inscrutable tale that simply cannot every be resolved to everyone’s opinion. Then there are theories about ancient prehistoric races who established themselves from other continents and left this monument as a statement of their existence. Edgar Cayce made statements about the Sphinx, and the fact that there is hidden information underneath the Sphinx. Theories do abound, but they all show the limitless curiosity which promulgates itself at the mere sight of this magnificent monument. Whatever its origin, the fact of it and its powerful message remains.

The Messiah

The astrological symbols do hold powerful and inspirational pictures that each human individual can take comfort in and draw inspiration from, as they work their way through their current life lessons and try to look back on and forward to – a future of growth and wonder living on this planet of life and resurrection. As we do, the Sphinx still sits there with its presence a statement. If the Sphinx is declaring that a Messiah, an anointed one, will come and secure man’s future to a kingly destiny, then the Sphinx is making a very positive declaration. Ultimately, what is the hoped for effect of the Messiah? That man’s struggle and pain will be ended and ultimate victory and peace will be attained.

If there can not be agreement on its meaning, there can be universal agreement of the fact that it continues to make a statement every day – a statement of ultimate mystery. In our scientific and mechanistic and materialistic age maybe its message is the message of impermanence. Societies come and go, but “I still sit here, telling my story”.   Read astrologygetalong.com for ebooks for each sign, and helpful analyses for couples.
