pp. 260-261 AN ASTROLOGICAL MANDALA, by Dane Rudhyar (1973)
PHASE 318 (AQUARIUS 18°): A MAN'S SECRET MOTIVES ARE BEING PUBLICLY UNMASKED.
KEYNOTE: The difficulty for the modern individual to keep secret his private past or his deeper motives.
This symbol logically follows the two preceding ones. Today, struggle between the power of society and the rights of the individual leads in the end to the defeat of the latter. The media and innumerable governmental agencies are nearly always able to find access to remains or records of past actions; modern psychologists and psychiatrists are increasingly adept at penetrating the deepest secrets of a life through "analysis" and all kinds of more or less allowed techniques involving drugs and the subconscious reactions of muscles and nerves. The individual whose activities have to remain unrecognized is engaged in a constant struggle; he needs the help of higher Powers as well as of the protective agencies he may have placed at his services.
This is the third stage in the sixty-fourth five-fold sequence of archetypal images of the cyclic process. It refers to the UNMASKING of hidden motives and personal secrets. It may refer to the publicizing of past behavior.
