Know your birth chart’s discord profile

You’re not immune from bad behavior. No one is. Presidents, politicians, entrepreneurs, supreme court judges, board directors, scientists, doctors and priests behave badly. It’s their problem: yours is yours.

Your soul’s evolutionary journey is strictly educational. You live and learn and struggle to survive. Painful experience precipitates a discordant thought-cell response. Discordant desire hankers for events that replicate its formative experience.

Your birth chart reveals how your education has progressed up to the moment of your human birth. It’s not an accidental, random arrangement of planets and zodiac signs. It depicts your unconscious reality: what already exists within your soul-consciousness when you were born and you have faults and defects that have you making mistakes and messing up.

Hermetic astrology teaches that all your difficulties are the result of discordant thoughts, feelings and impulses within your soul doing their thing.

The term discord is astrological jargon. It indicates misguided learning: a difficult, painful situation saw you develop a discordant thought-cell response.

So, don’t view discord as bad. It’s nature’s way of educating you through painful experience.

Your birth chart provides otherwise unknowable information. It depicts discord that exists within you. There’s a corresponding condition within your astral body. So, you can view discord as detrimental and hazardous but it’s not due to your birth chart.

Right from the get-go the mishap and misfortune you’ve attracted is the result of discordant thoughts, feelings and impulses within your soul-consciousness doing their thing. 

Discordant desire works to attract unfortunate, painful events; defective character traits deliver unfortunate outcomes; and your birth chart details your personal discord potential.

Your chart’s astrodyne report and aspect grid reveals there are planets, signs, aspects and houses with discord scores. You have a worst planet, sign, aspect and house.

A discordant planet depicts a corresponding thought-cell group that’s embedded with misguided desire. It’s a legacy of your evolutionary past and it’s using its psychokinetic power to attract events that you consider bad and unfortunate.

The opposition, square, sesquisquare and semisquare aspects map thought-compounds formed by painful experience. They indicate misguided learning. Your response to painful circumstance was inept and destructive.

High discord thought-compounds are serious life stressors. They contain destructive thought-elements that work to attract unfortunate events.

Their discord manifests as conflict, split-thinking, frustration, blocked desire, hindrance, vexation, grievance, friction and agitation. It’s painful; and letting you know there’s a problem disturbing your mental wellbeing.

A faint flicker of mental dissonance indicates you’re having a discordant response to some person or situation. And to overcome the problem you struggle. You have to resolve the conflict, find a satisfactory outlet for your frustrated desire and harmonize the friction, irritation and agitation.

In its broadest sense discord describes every type of mental or physical discomfort. It manifests as character defects, bad luck, poor adaptation to environment, a lack of support, failure and difficulty developing ability.

A discord profile

Discord manifests as destructive feelings: selfishness, greed, envy, guilt, remorse, impulsivity, anger, annoyance, aggravation, harshness, cruelty, revenge, antagonism, conceit, extravagance, eccentricity, discontentment, dissatisfaction, confusion, deceitfulness, intimidation, bullying and coercion. 

It manifests as misfortune, adversity, struggle, unsupportive environmental conditions, unfortunate social relations, disagreeable associates, contention, dissension and disharmony.

Discord manifests as mental irregularity, dysfunctional thinking, the ruthless use of reason, cognitive dissonance, disordered states of mind, mental health problems, unpleasant feelings, boredom, helplessness, distressed emotions, emotional turmoil, anguish, misery and unhappiness.

It manifests as unwise, ill-considered actions, misguided behavior, wasted effort, unproductive behaviour, ineffective problem solving, diminished performance, counter-productive conduct, unrealistic expectations and incompetence: You’re not that good at doing what you do.

Discord manifests as physical and mental handicaps, environmental constraints, a difficult road to hoe, impossible problems, set-backs, unfortunate pay-offs, ordeals, trying times, a slippery slope, rough patch, disasters and horrific events.

Discord tests your capacity to deal with unrelenting stress.

The loveless marriage provides favorable conditions for building discord.

Discord manifests as bad luck, ill-timed misfortune, inopportune difficulties, unfavorable developments, unwanted interference, disadvantage, negative feedback, painful learning and conformity pressures: the tyranny of what society says you must do.

It manifests as frustrated desire, a sense of not being in control, educational, work and housing difficulties, financial loss, business failure, unemployment, dishonor, disease, the wear and tear of daily life and the challenge to change.

Discord has you doing wrong. It manifests as duplicity, betrayal, disrespect, disloyalty, skullduggery and shirking duties and responsibilities. It leaves enduring painful memories: the shame and disgrace goes on and on. 

Discord manifests as the inability to learn from experience: it has a lesson to teach. The pain and displeasure you’re feeling is letting you know that you’re not adapting successfully to circumstance.

You should know your chart’s discord hotspot. It’s usually an opposition or square aspect, a T-square or a grand square and it can send your life off the rails for years and years.

Birth chart discord

Birth chart discord is letting you know that you entertain faulty thoughts and feelings. You behave ineptly: saying and doing things that inflict harm on yourself and others. Your soul’s discordant thought-cell activity is working to attract what you describe as unfortunate-bad experiences.

Discord levels vary. You can rate it high, moderate or low. High-level discord increases the likelihood of serious misfortune. Discordant desire is having a destructive outcome. You cannot experience prolonged discord and not expect adverse consequences.

Discord is warning sign: you’re doing something wrong. It needs your immediate attention. It can easily spiral out of control. It requires a sensible, thorough assessment and appropriate management. It will manifest an unfortunate event when your progressed chart and outer-world circumstances synchronize to give it the green light.

You can view discord as an impediment until it’s changed or modified.

You’re inclined to continually recycle discord. When you give your attention to a painful experience you tune in on its discordant response and feed its thought cause. This enhances its potential to demonstrate more discord.

Regular engagement with a stressful circumstance compounds its discord.

Do you maintain contact with painful people? Do you engage in disagreeable activities? Do you stay in stressful situations?  It’s just you character doing its thing and you’re referencing your birth chart to find out why.

Discord can jeopardize your health, happiness and spiritual progress. Prolonged mental dissonance damages your physical wellbeing. It manifests as genetic and biochemical dysfunction. It alters your body chemistry and precedes disease.

Discord is expensive: it takes its toll on your mental and physical health and costs you money.

Discord can dominate your life: you’re developing intelligence and ability through pain and distress. The more time engaged in struggle, the less time devoted to positive achievement.

Discord doesn’t compromise ability, but it can make it difficult to develop.

Discord is not inevitable. Corrective diet, lifestyle and thinking measures can neutralize its potential, but you won’t change a discordant behavior until you recognize its destructiveness.

Learning to deal with discord is part of your human life experience. It requires an effective response involving intelligence, initiative and confidence. Difficulties and setbacks can spur you to greater effort.

You live and learn and gradually modify or change your destructive, ineffective behaviors but with birth chart knowledge you can take the bull by the horns.

You can remedy discord. You can learn from your mistakes. You can change or modify your discordant thought-cell activity and conduct. Your long-term goal is to iron out all the rough spots in your character. When you focus your attention on mending discord, your focus shifts to its resolution.

Don’t bemoan or fear discord. It has an educational purpose and when you learn its lesson you’ll be a better person.

Where possible validate birth chart discord with real-life experience.

There’s discord in your birth chart. It depicts discordant thought-cell activity and unfortunate events. You should manage it as best you can.
