pp. 252-253 AN ASTROLOGICAL MANDALA, by Dane Rudhyar (1973)
SECOND LEVEL: EMOTIONAL-CULTURAL
PHASE 306 (AQUARIUS 06°): A MASKED FIGURE PERFORMS RITUALISTIC ACTS IN A MYSTERY PLAY.
KEYNOTE: The individual's involvement in long-established patterns of activity aiming at the release of collective power.
The great Mysteries of the past were created by inspired Seers and Adepts for the purpose of transferring to a mentally conscious and humanly significant level of group operation what in the lower kingdoms of life we call instincts. Biological and cosmic energies can thus be used to ensure that social processes do not lose touch with the deeper realities of planetary and universal Life. Rituals are binding, and often the performers wear masks, for they do not act as human persons but as focal points for the release of transpersonal forces.
This first symbol of the sixty-second five-fold sequence presents to us social processes in their deepest occult aspect. The individual is seen having assumed a TRANSPERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY.
