| Life's Greatest Adventure! | | | | Hi Friend,
Last week we looked at the basics of what karma actually is and saw that we can experience karma on many levels: individual, family, social and collective. This week we'll look at where these different levels of karma show up in your natal chart.
Remember your natal chart is only a symbol of your energy field. So when we are talking about your chart, we really mean your energy field!
|
| | As we look at your individual, familial, societal and collective karma it is important to bear in mind that, somewhat paradoxically, it is ALL individual, since it is all experienced by you, through your own perspective!
Having said that, your individual karma is reflected in the personal planets. If you have read "Your Essential Guide To Soul Astrology" you'll realize by now that your Sun and Moon are the most personal planets of all. I'm not a lover of statistics but if I was going to pull a figure out of thin air I would say that if you know someone's Sun, Moon and Rising Sign you probably know 80% of the person. The rest is detail.
The Sun shows your vitality: how you flow your life force energy, your prana. Your Moon shows your instincts and emotions. It describes your emotional world and experience. Instinct is an interesting word because it relates directly to long-term karma (if there can be such a thing!). In some Buddhist traditions it is said to be very difficult to get out of the animal realm of suffering, and be reborn into a precious human rebirth*. This is because the lack of insight and compulsive drives. For example the compulsive drive of say a killer shark, has such a momentum that the consciousness gets reborn again and again into the same realm.
The Moon in your chart is therefore very important because it can show you unconscious karmic patterns that you can change on your journey towards 'enlightenment', self-realization and self-actualisation.
Next we have Mercury which indicates the patterns of your mind: your thinking style, thought patterns and your communication style. The predisposition for this will have been set out in a past life, which is why Mercury shows up exactly where it does in your chart. When we learn about karma, we can begin to see why astrology works: it's not because the planets are in that position that you are the way you are, it's because you are the way you are, that the planets showed up in that position! Your karma came first!
Venus shows your magnetism, attraction and how you love. Mars shows your personal drive, how you assert yourself and your motivation. If the Sun is like your engine, your life force energy, than Mars is the 'fuel' in your engine!
In this way we can see how the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus and Mars are indicating your personal karma. Jupiter and Saturn are said to be the 'social planets'. To a degree they will indicate what you are here to learn and teach, and so are showing where your karma is interfacing with the society you were born into. Jupiter can indicate where you can bring wisdom. Saturn can indicate an area where you can develop mastery, and can indicate a treasure store of mastery that you have brought through from many past lives.
The lunar Nodal Axis also shows where you have a relationship with the society you were born into. The north node in particular can can indicate what the society is calling you up to be, and in fulfilling that role in society, it will be an area of growth and learning for you.
Finally the big guns! The outer planets of Uranus, Neptune, Pluto and Chiron are all collective in nature and will indicate where you have shared 'karma' within your generation. This means that together you have lessons to learn and wounds to heal, all for the purpose of evolving the collective consciousness of humanity!
