In a biological context the book of life is written in the language of rules that govern living organisms, like growth, reproduction, and adaptation to environment. They pertain to your physical body and include processes like metabolism and homeostasis, which maintain, the internal balance of living systems.
Hermetic astrology teaches that this process of chemical change, which represents the metabolism of your physical body, generates electromagnetic energy which constitutes its life-force. Your body’s nervous system fires electrical impulses and nerve currents are a specialized form of electromagnetic energy.
Hermetic astrology teaches that your soul, which is attached to your physical body by the psychokinetic power of its thoughts, manages your body’s biological processes using know-how it has acquired through experience.
Hermetic astrology concludes that life is intelligence and ability expressing through form and its evolutionary development is in accordance with the laws of nature. It teaches that the grand book of life is written in the language of the stars: a reference to the Sun, Moon and eight planets of our solar system, and the 12 zodiac signs whose natures and characteristics are revealed through their corresponding constellations.
The 48 constellations in the sky are written reports left by the first astrologers that document what they discovered in reference to the practical and spiritual potential of human behavior as defined by a certain section of the heavens.
Their understanding of human nature concluded that the sky was safest place to document their precious wisdom. It was safe there from the book-burners and information savages.
Book burning, the suppression and control of information, and the destruction of knowledge have a long and dark history. Governments, religious institutions, extremists and most recently corporations have been actively involved.
In August 1966, John Lennon made a remark to a reporter that the Beatles were ‘more popular than Jesus’ that sparked a firestorm of controversy, and in some parts of the United States, people began burning Beatles records, memorabilia, and books.
In April 2019, a group of Catholic priests in Koszalin, Poland burned books, including one of JK Rowling’s Harry Potter novels which they claimed promoted witchcraft and occultism, and could lead children astray.
In 2000 the Church of Light’s board of directors launched Elbert Benjamine’s religious organization online as Light.org suppressing all reference to the Church of Light and the Religion of the Stars: a betrayal of Elbert Benjamine and their fiduciary duties.
In May 2020 in Juukan Gorge in the Pilbara region of Western Australia Rio Tinto blasted 46,000-year-old rock shelters and rock art sites. The destruction – in the interest of money and profits – was seen as a betrayal of Indigenous culture and a significant loss to the region’s heritage.
And in 2022 the Russian military burned all the books in the library of the Petro Mohyla Church in the city of Mariupol in Ukraine.
So, thanks to the foresight of the ancient wise ones the spiritual wisdom they encoded in the constellations is safe from crazy extremists and self-interest driven betrayal.
The language of the stars
The grand book of life is written in the language of the stars; and astrology is the science that studies the influence of its letters – the planets and zodiac signs – on terrestrial life.
Hermetic astrology distinguishes itself from popular, mainstream astrology aka fortune-telling and provides a superior, scientific, evidence-based translation to the language of the stars.
Astrology is also written in the language of mathematics and Hermetic astrology measures the energies mapped in your birth chart calculating their power, harmony or discord scores which aid in the assessment of your character.
The characters in the language of the stars which comprise its alphabet are the symbols for the 10 planets and 12 zodiac signs. They’re depicted in all birth charts including yours.
These symbols stand for things and unless you understand their meanings you won’t understand a single word written in your birth chart.
Each planet and sign represents a letter in the divine language of the stars and you were born when their energy pattern in the sky closely resembled the thought-structure of your soul’s developing consciousness.
Your soul is embedded with ten dynamic urges that are conditioned by your human life experience as a child and teenager. Only you know what happened. Unfortunate parenting may have caused harmful, misguided states of consciousness to develop and Hermetic astrology provides methods by which they can be changed, modified and corrected.
With an understanding of the language of the stars you can apply it to your birth chart to acquire self-knowledge.
Your birth chart
In the Age of Aquarius self-knowledge is a central focus and the Aquarian age internet advises you to build better self-knowledge by: reflecting on why you behave the way you do in different situations; noticing patterns in how others respond to you; using a journal for regular honest self-reflection; practicing mindfulness meditation; identifying role models who demonstrate traits you admire; asking trusted friends or mentors for feedback; and working with a therapist who can help you uncover blind spots, challenge unhelpful beliefs, and guide deeper self-understanding.
Hermetic astrology advises you to assess your birth chart.
It teaches that your birth chart allows you to learn and understand your soul’s relation to the stars. It’s a map of your whole character.
Your soul was attracted to an environment that suited the expression of its already developed qualities; and your birth chart indicates that certain types of pre-human life experiences have laid the foundation for certain types of human life experiences which conditioned your behavior to express in one way and not another.
Your birth chart maps natural aptitudes that are being developed and specialized by experience.
Your birth chart maps your inner-world of reality. It reveals the environmental trigger and your psychological response. It depicts general conditions pertaining to each area of your life not precise experiences so only you know how things have actually panned out.
Hermetic astrology allows you to make sense of your birth chart. It also provides advice on what you should do to live in harmony with nature and to reach your full potential as a human soul.
The language of the stars is a sensational language. It’s a minority language that’s facing extinction. There are very few people who know the language and far too many who think they do who knowingly or unknowingly contaminate it with false information. It’s been contaminated and abused by fortune-tellers. It’s under attack from atheistic science and orthodox religion. Astrology for Aquarius does all it can to preserve the language.
