Hello ,
I am new here and very happy to have found a forum which has a discussion just for configurations.
I have an interesting pattern on my chart, and so does someone else. I wonder if any of you have come across it before, and whether or not you have, your comments about it would be welcomed.I am an actually as Astrologer myself, so am not looking for a "free" reading. The fact is, that in the 13 years I have worked with Astrology I have NEVER come across single book about the configuration in question and many an internet search over the years has yoilded just one small paragraph about it. It seems totally overlooked.
I have three yods that intertwine perfectly to create a 5 pointed star, contained within a "lantern " shape. I was born 18th october 1973 in Cardiff, Wales,UK at 13-40 pm and am female.
A person with the exact same shape, who lives across the world, has himself been for years trying to find out about this configuration, and anyone else who has it. After many years of searching, he last week found me. We were born a day apart but we share the same pattern, with the same aspects, only they sit in different houses. We resonate with one another at a profound level. He was born in Amman, Jordan,Israel on 17th october 1973 at 17:00pm
We have had rather an intsense "getting to know" one another exchange by email and chat which has elicited some VERY powerful feelings that are MOST inconvenient as we live opposite sides of the world and I have a family!!
anyway..........
I am aware of the symbolism associated in esoteric law associated with this star shape. I am more interested in how the shape takes meaning on a personal level. The very apex of the star, the whole pattern, is at the neptune-Venus conjunction in Saggitarius. I am well aware of this star shape being associated with Venus and of Neptune being the "higher octave" of Venus.
This shape may also be formed from Bi-quintiles. a "geometrically perfect" pentagram would be comprised of the 5th harmonic, ie the quintile series. This is not, but nevertheless is still a blazingly obvious star , each yod being in perfect harmony to the others.The lantern shape itself as a stand-alone is associated with the geometric shape the "pentagon", which in turn relates to the pentagram star because of the 5 points. you will see my LANTERN quite clearly, it joins all the edges of the star up.
This star is the focal point of my entire chart. Take away the inconjuncts that then take away the yods, and the chart is half bare. Interestingly, OUTSIDE of the lanter-star shape sits a few aspects practically nothing to do with this configuration....as if there were two distinctly separate parts to "me". Two parallel lives......LOL
I have come across this shape in one other chart years ago, the man was a healer and Tai Chi/Chi Gung master.
I'd be very keen to hear from anyone who has come across this themselves, or anyone who thinks they can draw some meaning from it. Given this is such an uncommon and unacknowledged aspect configuration, it is all the more intriguing and should be interesting for those of you keen to investigate chart patterns.
I look forward to any and all replies....and for those of you wondering why, as an Astrologer, I need any outside insight, I say to you that it is always tricky to be purely objective about ones own chart and own aspect patterns!
Thanks in advance
