RE: The significance of the conjunction of sun , Mercury, 

Mars, and Jupiter in the same zodiac sign



Dear C:



It always helps me (in time saving) if you can give me a page reference.



As I understand it the Ancients who were recorders of astronomical events
took note of the cycles of time involved and these were not only physical
events like deluges, earthquakes, the shifting of continents, the rise and
fall of races and civilizations, etc..., and but included psychical,
emotional and mental cycles.



See S D II pp. 68-70 for the enormous time-periods covered.





ECLIPSES AND "OCCULT" SIGNIFICANCE.



Any astronomical event has both local and world-wide effects.

The planets, zodiac, and movements of the Earth, Moon and Sun

together, in combination or apart and separately are all similar

to the workings of a very complex but finely adjusted clock.



According to HPB ( S D ) they reflect those times and cycles which

bring the return of Karmic effects. Those Karmic causes may have

been generated aeons ago. Some are known by us, most are not.

Sages know of them and looking in the "Astral Light" see there

the causes and effects of those cycles.



We guess. Our "astrology" is very speculative. We refer to

ancient texts, grimoires, kabalistic and Rosicrucian codexes,

etc... but the key to accurate understanding remains to be

proven.



Take Nostradamus' dark sayings -- usually they are verified after

the events, and the symbols and emblems that he used become clear

retrospectively.



As to the future? It is was said by a wise theosophical writer

that "the clear minded and the brave" will be able to meet any

karmic effects as they ought to be met: with equanimity and the

certainty that Karma can adjust all effects to their causes so

that all those involved may profit from them. Have we developed

such an all-inclusive vision yet ?



Suppose that we could see or be told the future ? Do you think

that any one of us might not then take advantage of such

knowledge to try to twist events to suit himself personally?

And, thus, interfering with the karmic event, vitiate it ? Only

those who are pure in spirit and in motive can deal with

pre-cognition by letting events take care of themselves as Karma

dictates.



Is this fatalism? No. Since each free-will individual makes

decisions based on his self-determination, knowledge and desires.



Are those desires pure ? There is the real question. Are we

still trying to secure some personal advantage ? If so, why ?

only we can answer that to ourselves. And what about others ?

Are they to be abandoned to their sad fate ? No warning ? No

attempt to secure for them and advantage that we would use for

ourselves ? 



Our whole "progress and advance" depends on our grasping the intricate and
intimate relation of all beings (Monads) - we have to learn to cherish and
love others and so protect them when necessary, if we can. Let's say that as
we are immortals, we have been in close relationships in the past and will
so be in the future.

Subject: [bn-study] The significance of the conjunction of sun, Mercury ,
Mars , and Jupiter in the same zodiac sign





Dear Dallas,



Upon reading the SECRET DOCTRINE, HPB mentions the significance of the
conjunction of all these planets in the same zodiac sign, although no
mention of which sign. 



DTB SOME MENTIONED ABOVE





Could you clarify? 



DTB I DON'T KNOW ENOUGH DTB





Is it just the conjunction that's significant, or the sign that it takes
place in? 



DTB I DON'T KNOW ENOUGH DTB





And just what makes it so significant to begin with?



DTB EVIDENCE OF MASS KARMA RETURNING AT SPECIFIC TIMES





Thanks! and peace,



Cindy
