Magic Monday

[ecosophia]

It's getting on for midnight, so we can proceed with a new Magic Monday. Ask me anything about occultism and I'll do my best to answer it. With certain exceptions, any question received by midnight Monday Eastern time will get an answer. Please note:  Any question received after then will not get an answer, and in fact will just be deleted. I've been getting an increasing number of people trying to post after these are closed, so will have to draw a harder line than before.) If you're in a hurry, or suspect you may be the 143,916th person to ask a question, please check out the very rough version 1.0 of The Magic Monday FAQ here. Also: I will not be putting through or answering any more questions about practicing magic around children. I've answered those in simple declarative sentences in the FAQ. If you read the FAQ and don't think your question has been answered, read it again. If that doesn't help, consider remedial reading classes; yes, it really is as simple and straightforward as the FAQ says. 

The image?  That's the twenty-seventh card in The Sacred Geometry Oracle. Card 27, The Golden Proportion, when upright indicates that you can expect perfect success; when reversed, it tells you that your own actions have brought about your failure. The sun in the upper left corner of the image tells you that this card belongs to the final third of the oracle, which corresponds to Nwyfre, the principle of spirit and meaning.  We've completed our passage through the first two of the basic root functions of sacred geometry -- √3, the principle of the vesica piscis and the equilateral triangle, and √2, the principle of the square and its diagonal -- and now we're working with the √5, the seed from which the Golden Section unfolds and resolves all back into unity.

I've had several people ask about tipping me for answers here, and though I certainly don't require that I won't turn it down. You can use the button above to access my online tip jar. If you're interested in political and economic astrology, or simply prefer to use a subscription service to support your favorite authors, you can find my Patreon page here and my SubscribeStar page here. 

 

I've also had quite a few people over the years ask me where they should buy my books, and here's the answer. Bookshop.org is an alternative online bookstore that supports local bookstores and authors, which a certain other gargantuan corporation doesn't, and I now have a shop there, which you can check out here. Please consider patronizing it if you'd like to purchase any of my books online.

And don't forget to look up your Pangalactic New Age Soul Signature at CosmicOom.com.

With that said, have at it! 

***This Magic Monday is now closed. See you next week!***

I'll challenge long-distance travel and comms; a couple of specific forms of that (the gasoline-powered automobile and airplane, probably television, possibly radio) are at least partially Plutonic, but AFAICT the majority of that falls under Neptune's ambit. (Note the advent of steam travel, the telegraph, and much more reliable long-distance ocean travel with the steamship between 1820 and 1850; Neptune was discovered in 1848.)

(Also, some of the agricultural improvements may be Uranian; I'm vaguely remembering a smaller Agricultural Revolution sometime around when Uranus started phasing in along with the first glimmers of the Industrial one. (Pesticides are likely Plutonic, though.) The other interesting question is weapons - nukes are half-Plutonic, half-Uranian (note the two elements usually involved!), and Uranus alone may impose enough of a ruinous cost on warfare to mitigate it over time)

That said, on the other hand I'll note unions (at least in their American form, European ones may work differently) and antitrust legislation show every sign by timing of being Plutonic (unions make sense as Plutonic at a symbolic level, too - division of the indivisible corporate egregore into owners and workers); the Uranus/Neptune combo seems to push towards vertically integrated monopolies, judging by their rapid advent in the 19th century.
