Your birth chart maps the mental composition your astral body at the moment of your birth. It shows what kind of thought (stellar) cells and what kind of thought (stellar) organizations occupied each of its compartments at that time.
When you assessed the planets you learnt about the strength, functional status and conditioned mode of expression of their corresponding thought-cell groups.
Each planet tells a story which begins with a desire-urge that’s embedded in your soul-consciousness. Its strength doesn’t change but its associated thought-cell activity is stimulated or turned on by a progressed aspect.
Each thought-cell group has a backstory and their conditioning by experience, which you should know about, influences their current mode of expression.
Factcheck: The independent intelligence possessed by a particular thought-structure is derived from its limited experiences. It does not have the ability to recognise what is good or bad. It’s been built and conditioned by pleasure or pain and will expend its energy attracting new events and conditions that correspond to the way it feels.
Progressed planets can form the same ten aspects that the planets can form in your birth chart and the aspect maintains its essential nature. But birth chart aspects depict permanent thought-structures and progressed aspects depict temporary thought-structures that form and dissolve in accordance with the aspect’s time-frame.
Progressed aspects
Progressed aspects inform you when thought-cell stimulation is taking place.
They do not map specific events. They map energy releases of definite planetary types and your progressed chart for a selected date is a bulletin board of progressed aspects. A computer calculated listing of these aspects provides data pertaining to your not-conscious thought-cell activity that’s working to attract new events and conditions.
A progressed planet can form an aspect with a birth chart or other progressed planet. It can form a progressed aspect with its birth chart position but if it hasn’t moved one degree beyond its birth chart position it does not have the effect of a progressed conjunction or progressed parallel aspect.
The progressed aspect builds a temporary stellar aerial across your astral body which picks up (radio fashion) the energy of the planets. Both the planets involved in the aspect act as terminals for the reception of planetary energy which is transmitted to specific compartments of your astral body.
The thought-cells corresponding to the planets are getting an energy boost and they’re going to use their psychokinetic power to attract a new experience that replicates how they feel.
A harmonious progressed aspect adds harmony to the thought-cells inclining them to work to attract fortunate events and a discordant progressed aspect adds discord inclining them to attract unfortunate events. But the temporary supply of progressed harmony or discord is influencing the conduct of thought-cells that already have a conditioned mode of expression which only you know about.
Factcheck: Planetary energy picked up, radio fashion, by a stellar-aerial developed across your astral body when a progressed aspect is formed, is made available to the thought-cells and thought structures at the terminals of the aerial. But the event is not attracted by the new supply of planetary energy made available; it’s attracted by the thought activities then stimulated. The thought-cells work with such intelligence as they possess, and with the energy supply made available, to bring events of a certain nature into your life.
But by taking proper precautionary actions based on astrological knowledge you can change discordant thought-cell activity that’s inclined to attract unfortunate events and make it harmonious and fortunate.
All progressed aspects have a one-degree orb of influence either side of the perfect degree. They have start, peak and end dates – long time frames during which the stellar aerials (aspects) they map transmit an unusually large amount of planetary energy to the thought-cells at both terminals of the aspect which exert pressure on your thoughts, feelings and actions for the aspect’s duration.
When a progressed aspect starts the thought-cells mapped by the planets forming the aspect get turned on and as the aspect moves towards its peak power date the thought-cell activity which has a conditioned mode of expression builds and escalates. It exerts a constant and powerful influence on your behavior and through your actions attracts events that replicate how it feels
Each progressed aspect operates on a bell curve principle and on its peak date the planetary energy corresponding to the planets that’s being delivered to their corresponding thought-cells within your finer-astral-body is at peak volume.
Some progressed aspects can last many years – even your life time. They depict thought-cell activity that you’ve become accustomed to.
You’ve adapted to the thought-cell activity so nothing out of the ordinary occurs. But while it’s being stimulated it’s using its psychokinetic power to attract new events and conditions that can occur when the longtime progressed aspect gets reinforced by a major and/or minor progressed aspect under supportive environmental conditions.
Discordant long-time progressions require precautionary measures. Don’t neglect them.
Your progressed aspects hold the key to your current and future development.
They’re giving specific thought-cell groups an energy boost and what you do is always in the direction of what’s on your mind. Your behavior is characterized by the nature of the planets receiving the new supply of mental energy or your own directed thoughts.
You must know, well beforehand, when a new progressed aspect starts. It’s a major life event: an energy event with a destiny. It’s providing data from which you can extract valuable information.
It’s sending you a data-alert and an analysis of the data facilitates scenario planning and the development of a strategy. You should make a plan to use the new supply of energy effectively. To set and achieve goals.
A new progressed aspect maps a new energy resource: a new supply of mental energy that will express through specific departments of life. So, the events you attract at a particular time are due to thought-cell activity that’s associated with specified life-matters, activities and people.
The progressed aspects in your chart are nature’s insurance against stagnation.
They’re like arrows that signpost your future and Hermetic astrology provides guidelines on how best to manage what’s going on.
Your birth chart maps predispositions that only become real-life events and conditions when their thought-cell markers are turned on by progression.
Your progressed aspects allow you to track thought-cell activity as it responds to inner-plane weather events. These forces if left to themselves flow into their accustomed channels of expression.
You need to know (1) how these energies can be estimated as to their volume and natural trend; and (2) the methods by which they can be controlled, diverted and employed to do the kind of work you desire they do.
Your birth chart’s potential is realized when a new supply of planetary energy from a progressed aspect stimulates your soul’s thought-cells to use their psychokinetic power to influence your behavior. Events occur.
Major progressed aspects have the power to attract major events; minor progressed aspects map independent minor events or reinforce a major progressed aspect; and transit progressed aspects map independent inconsequential events or time when a major event mapped by a reinforced major progressed aspect occurs.
