Some may find new forms of Astrology hard to believe, as they have associated with being a certain star sign for all of their life. However, most forms of astrology do not align with the science of astronomy and the observations of the sky due to two factors: the precession (or drift) of the equinoxes & the dimensions of constellations.

The cornerstone of Astronomical Astrology is the actual observable locations of the Sun, Moon or planets in relation to the eighteen constellations of the extended zodiac.

Astronomical Astrology does not dismiss the aspects of what someone has believed throughout their life, as it must be realised that thoughts are their own energies, which can form a layer of reality around an individual. In which case you may find that you exhibit aspects of the star sign you think you are, but at the time you will find that you react sub-consciously due to the energies which are the actual astronomical aspects.

As you access your Life Force energies, they begin to blossom and radiate into the world. Your Life Force will try to release itself from the emotional instability of the human body. As it does, the Life Force gains control of your life, so that you can live every thought, emotion and feeling with high reasoning.

How long will it take to release the wonder of your Life Force? The awakening of your Life Force has to be controlled by you, as it is necessary to adjust to the energies of your Life Force on a gradual basis. Much depends on your ability to have an open mind to challenge the accepted conditioning that has built up over the years. The awakening of your Life Force depends on your enthusiasm to place your will to the fore through Ekagrata to enter into the silence within your Life Force mind.

As anyone who practices mindfulness, you must face the challenge of the aspects which you have pushed aside. While it is an admirable practice to improve your focus in life by pushing aside other thoughts, emotions or feelings, you need to take a deeper challenge. The challenge is to realise that pushing aside any thoughts, emotions or feelings, does not make them disappear. When pushing them aside, they continue to exist on the periphery of your consciousness.

 

You need to understand these aspects within your life so that you can then move beyond them. Moving beyond them, you can no longer react to the stimuli which they produce. However, if you leave them unattended within the recesses of your mind, they are like the proverbial Pandora’s box. As such, any emotional aspects not appropriately understood or banished completely from your mind, can lead to many unforeseen problems.

In astronomy, the zodiac is a group of constellations that is present behind the path which the Sun, Moon and planets transverse across the sky, as seen from our planet Earth. The Zodiac occupies a small eight-degree view on either side of an imaginary line known as the ecliptic. The ecliptic is the plane of Earth’s orbit around the Sun, which in effect traces a path of the Sun’s movement around the celestial sphere each year.

The constellations of the zodiac are named after figures, animals and objects from Greek or earlier mythology. The ecliptic line passes directly through the thirteen constellations of: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpius, Ophiuchus, Sagittarius, Capricornus, Aquarius and Pisces. The ecliptic also passes very close to the constellations of Auriga, Corvus, Cetus, Orion & Sextans, which means that on some occasions the Moon or planets may actually transverse these other constellations. Astronomical Astrology identifies this group of 18 constellations as the extended zodiac.

The ability to work with your Life Force energies is not a mystery it is achievable through Cognition (a true calmness of mind) and Ekagrata (focused thought). As you learn about this inner energy, you will find that you can apply it in many situations for whatever positive result you require. Strength, willpower, healing, upliftment; all these and more are possible through the correct application of this amazing energy source. Multi-faceted Knowledge is based on accessing your Life Force to expand the understanding of yourself and expand the capabilities of your Life Force as an energy being.

 

Accessing your Life Force energies allows you to bring harmony within yourself and resonate within higher states of consciousness. Free yourself from physical, mental and emotional limitations through moving out of your conditioned emotional patterns of thinking into positive and creative higher levels of mind. Changing your mental wavelengths will enable you to calm and balance your thoughts, emotions and feelings. You then can make the right decisions, can see and evaluate situations that are not tainted or influenced by outside emotions.

Astrology has been steeped in misconception and superstitious notions for many years, yet has normally been considered detached from the scientific discipline of astronomy and the observation of the stars. With Astronomical Astrology, these two discordant areas of knowledge are merged, bringing to light astrology backed by scientific research and the actual observations of the Sun, Moon and planets throughout the skies. This unique form of astrology considers the comprehensive movement of the planets and the stars, taking into account the precession of the equinoxes due to the long-term wobble of our planet.

 

The awareness, understanding and comprehension of the energies which influence and affront you is key to grasping how you live your life. The energies which are patterned by the Sun, Moon and planets as they transit through the constellations influence you, and form the basis of Astronomical Astrology.

 

It is a rare and amazing opportunity to be able to see all five of these bright planets in the sky simultaneously. They will also be in the correct order outward from the Sun, starting with Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and ending with Saturn. The event last occurred in December 2004, but it was only visible in certain tropical areas.

You can see the Northern Sky as viewed at 5 am in London or you can see the Southern Sky as viewed at 7 am in Brisbane and zoom in to see the locations of Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn as they align in the true astronomical locations for the Zodiac.

The display will be visible until early July, so unless you experience an unbelievable string of bad weather, you should be able to view the amazing display. Light pollution is a potential, although likely minor issue. The best conditions are clear, dark skies but luckily, these are all bright, naked-eye objects so you should be able to see the line-up even from the city.

If you have a pair of binoculars or a telescope, point them at the planets and moon (but never the sun). With even a small telescope, or binoculars on a tripod, you can see Jupiter’s largest 4 moons and Saturn’s rings. If you are in a dark enough location with a small telescope, you might also be able to see the atmospheric bands in Jupiter’s atmosphere.

Illumement, like other practices such as meditation, has many different connotations depending upon the reason for undertaking them. Illumement can be simply stated as being at one with your true self. Through learning to bring quietness to your mind and silencing the endless noise of your thoughts, emotions and feelings, gradually the essence of your true self, the Life Force, begins to emerge. Illumement, in its simple and purest form, is all-encompassing harmlessness to be at one with yourself.
