p. 233 AN ASTROLOGICAL MANDALA
SECOND LEVEL: EMOTIONAL-CULTURAL
PHASE 276 ( CAPRICORN 06°): TEN LOGS LIE UNDER AN ARCHWAY LEADING TO DARKER WOODS.
KEYNOTE: The need to complete any undertaking before seeking entrance to whatever is to be found beyond.
Number 10 is a symbol of completion; it symbolizes even more the revelation of a new series is brought to some degree of fulfillment, nothing truly significant is likely to be accomplished by a restless reaching out toward the as-yet-unknown. Number 10 is a symbol of germination, but the seed (Number 9) must have a matured well. No natural process can be accelerated safely beyond certain limits.
This represents the first stage in the fifty-sixth five-fold sequence. It establishes a foundation for what will follow. Here man reaches a THRESHOLD in which he may have to pause in order to safeguard his further advance.
Girlcapsule's Response:
The picture to the side gives an angle on my current location as I am writing this. There may have been about ten logs earlier this evening, but the "darker woods" may actually be the fire itself that is slowly consuming our log-stash.
The picture below shows some treasures I came across today as I was packing my things. Unfortunately, I am in the middle of a move. I will be house-sitting for a month, or so, and then will have to find a new spot to settle down into. I am hoping to remain in the East Bay until I finish my degree. May the universe bring forth a home-space that will nurture me, and allow me to continue my research and writing.
Rudhyar's words: "nothing truly significant is likely to be accomplished by a restless reaching out toward the as-yet-unknown", are speaking most to me today because I feel myself in a state of limbo.
