Hello!
This is a question regarding the potential for change within astrology in terms of using hermetic meditation to develop elemental qualities within one's astral body, and the implications this has on astrology. I have a fair amount of experience with hermeticism from practicing Franz Bardon's 'Initiation into Hermetics'. If you are not familiar with it, just be aware that you can change your personality by meditating on absorbing qualities of the elements. Knowing that is mainly the requisite to understanding this question.
When you introduce an element into your astral body, your personality changes as a result. For instance, by introducing the sense of gravity and density into my astral body, I feel more grounded. My perceptions change as a result and my personality becomes more practical and organized and 'down to earth'. The more I introduce these qualities of the earth element into my astral body over time, the more my instinctual emotional reactions to my environment become what would be associated with those born under the earth signs of Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn. The Moon rules the astral body, and someone born with their Moon in Taurus, for instance, will naturally have these earthy perceptions and behaviors. The astral body is associated with the Moon sign, and is fluid and changeable. So I assume that if you can change anything it would be the moon sign.
I was born with my moon in Pisces, and I have regularly introduced a explosive fiery element into my astral body and over time I have automatically begun acting as an Aries moon would. The more I practice said meditations the more permanent the effect feels.
Now my question is the following: So what would it mean when a planet transits my natal Pisces Moon? If my astral body is no longer resonating with Pisces type energy then will contacts to Pisces even have an effect on me?
Also, since my astral body and emotions are now Aries like, will planetary transits to Aries influence my astral body more than those to Pisces? In my mind, they should do! Because for instance, given a certain cultural astrological climate, society might readily welcome moon in Aries energy and at other times reject it. So if you are expressing this energy then that means that you are indeed affected by the astrological climate involving Aries.
Not to mention relationship astrology. If you feel like an Aries moon, then you should be forming trines with Leos and Sags regardless of your natal moon position. I can testify that relationships with Leos and Sags while animating fire energy creates a relationship dynamic that was not there beforehand.
So if it's possible to effectively change your Moon sign by hermetically introducing elements into your astral body, then what implications does that have for the rest of astrology? If you have Aries on the 10th house but no planets in that house, then will introducing explosive fiery pressure into your astral body eventually give you a Moon in the 10th house and therefore the career and fame benefits associated with such a placement?
By the way, I use the Moon as an example due to the fluid and changeable nature and it's association with the astral body.
Thanks in advance for your replies!
