Nice to be back.
Well, seeing as how His chart is like a template, if we look at the symbol for virgo 20 and ask "In what way has Yeshua linked human consiousness in order to reach the goal of destiny?" we could be led toward the appropriate part title.
Compassion would be an answer to that question, so it is a possible theme for both parts... (remembering that polarizing parts will likely deal with two sides of the same coin...)
But... let's look at this from all angles. We both have parts conjuncting Yeshua's As + Ven - POF and that is one major help in deciphering it's meaning. You have nemesis conjunct this part of Yeshua's.... what do you think Yeshua embodies that could be considered a nemesis/sudden advancement for you?
My part of astrology is virgo 20 and though I don't think astrology has altered my sense of compassion, it has been an outlet for relating with others in a more compassionate way.
After spending some time contemplating it, i think it's possible that venus-pof might be about cooperative efforts; how we blend in with others to arrive at a mutual goal, whereas the reverse pof-venus could be about seperation from others, how we set ourselves apart to reach our purpose. It seems to relate to what we give of ourselves to humanity vrs. what we take of humanity.
It wasn't until about two years ago, when I first heard of the "Hermetic Lots" that I heard of the Lot of Nemesis. The "Young Astrologer", Chris Brennan, had it listed as a Lot of Nemesis and I informed Him that I knew it by another name and that the title I knew it by comes on as being Beneficent and not Malevolent sounding as 'Nemesis".
{He was surprised and somewhat puzzled by my message and I was going to continue a correspondence with him but he dropped me from his 'Friend' list at facebook as I'm apparently a 'Known Threat" to "Traditional Astrologers" and as Chris is a recent, and a member of the last graduating class, of Keplar Astrological College [it went under or lost accreditation...something as like that.] He was obviously told to do so even though I hadn't given Him cause to and in fact had helped him with a problem he had solicited advice for as to a presentation/speech he was scheduled to soon give. He has announced upon his graduation from Keplar, which caught the attention of national news as it was the last graduating class of Keplar, that He was some sort of harbinger of a new generation of Astrologers, a very fresh and exciting approach, and then proceeded to produce the same old 'Trad. Astrology". Young Astrologers, ...huh? I didn't start that young but I do know enough to not make promises I don't know I can deliver on or not, and also, to not go around trash talking the senior members of the guild/craft that I'm hoping to be accepted into and stay employed in. ...although I suspect it may have been those very senior Traditional Astrologer that encouraged him to do so... so as to 'bring in some new "customers", ...so to speak.}.
I thought about it and wondered if there was in fact a nocturnal formula claimed as to exist and being a 'Trad.' Astrologer if he wasn't referring to a reverse formula and He informed me that He wasn't and that it is the same formula given for the Part of Sudden Advance [although, I can't remember if he said to reverse it for nocturnal births... doesn't matter, to me anyways, as i don't believe in different formulae for day and nights and neither does Clarisse, my trusty Clairvoyant friend, according to what see saw in her minds eye.] Then I gave it some more thought.
But first let me present the part of Sudden Advance, aka Hermetic Lot of Nemesis [Asc. + Part of Fortune - Saturn] from that chart I've been calling "A Template of Understanding", i.e the proposed natal chart of Jesus/Yeshu'a @ 10*
34', that is the 11th degree of Gemini: [ibid.]
"
NEWLY OPENED LANDS OFFER THE PIONEER NEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR EXPERIENCE.
KEYNOTE: The power and joy of new beginnings.
These 'newly opened lands' can refer to any as yet unexperienced field of potential activity at any level — material, emotional, mental or supermental. We are now dealing with the third level of experience, at which individuality — or at least the ego character — operates more definitely. While in the preceding phases much was said concerning the powers of the mind, this mind was essentially based on the collective patterns of a culture and a society. Now, at this third level, we find the human being essentially engaged in his personal and particular struggle for full and effective individualization. And the initial realization he has to experience is that he has reached a potentially virgin field of consciousness and activity. He is facing the unfamiliar. Anything could happen.
This is the first stage of the fifteenth five-fold sequence of symbols. Having conquered, at least to some extent, the collective and material energies of nature and society, man has become relatively "separate" from the past. He faces the future. Every step ahead should show him
RISING TO THE OCCASION."
...and YES! Isn't that just sooo perfect, of all the 360 that might have been the symbol as to what Action, emotional response or mental approach
[the three manners of applying a Sabian Symbol to a Part or chart axis point. See my recent thread on applying Sabian Symbology to Astrological parts in the Degree Symbolism forum] would result in, or provide, Yeshu'a ben David with a 'Big Leg up' the ladder to his goal? To those of you that have read Edgar Cayce's account of the 'Lost Years" of Jesus/Yeshu'a and, or, "The Aquarian Gospel" by Levi or have seen the documentary/movie, "The Lost Years" that was made in the 60's or early '70's [it used to, and might yet still, run for a few days every year around Easter on channel 2 in the San Francisco Bay Area]. As Cayce stated that the man from Naz. had to make those journeys to Egypt, Persia, India etc. in order to become fully trained and adept at those skills and knowledge He both demonstrated and extolled, apart from what he may have got directly in any sort of 'Divine communique'.
Cayce even named the names of His teachers in those lands.
{I read the Aquarian Gospel many years ago and for a time believed that it too was a true and ernest account of those years but have since had to dismiss it because I only more recently became aware that in the forward [I think it was] the author states that Adam and Eve were of a time only some 5 or 10 thousand years ago..or something as screwy as that...and declares that info comes from the same source as the rest of the books material. I feel the author was probably a very sincere and good person that wanted to make a positive contribution aqs to promoting alternative takes on the 'Jesus Story' and meant well, possibly even had some legitimate source material but ultimately did more harm than good.}.
If not for those travels to those other lands..and the trip to Egypt which was a considerable distance in those times, had to be made as for the initiation in the Great Pyramid that Jesus/Yeshu'a had to undergo and complete according to Edgar. Please remember that Sigmund Freud, in his book "Moses and Monotheism", wrote that the Hebrews are the remnants of the ancient "Aton" belief system of Egypt. and Cayce said that it was Melchizedek that was responsible for the Essenes' coming into existence as a sect of Judaism and the number of legends and, or, occult/esoteric accountings', that claim, that Hermes designed and, some say helped construct, the Great Pyramid and that He also was known as Enoch and, or Melchizedek, to the Hebrews and also that Cayce said that both Enoch and Melchizedek were former incarnations of the soul Amilius that eventually became, in His last and final incarnation, born as Yeshu'a ben David, the Man from Nazareth. If Freud was correct and also Edgar then Melchizedek surely knew everything about the Pyramids and all their so called 'secrets' as the Essenes had been deliberately isolated from the other Judaic sects for over 800 years when Jesus was born [avoiding enslavement by the Babylonians apparently or were somehow overlooked or ignored by them.]
So it definitely was, in my estimation, the most valuable
{even though it's a degree of the Zodiac identified by Rudhyar as being by Sabian Symbol a degree of the "Third Level", an "Individual/Mental level} action that Yeshu'a/Jesus could have possibly done, and did do, to achieve his destiny, to complete his dharma as the man born to Miriam/Mary and Yosef/Joseph of the Essenes'. But it was also a monumental task, expedition and effort to travel to so many lands and apply himself to the study, practice and mastery of what He was taught by the different teachers in those lands for what must have seemed to be 18 very long and sometimes lonely years.
Then, in consideration of what the Sabian Symbol of my own Part of Sudden Advancement in the 20th of Virgo is declaring, [ibid.] "SCENE TWELVE: EDUCATION (Virgo 16° to Virgo 30°): FIRST LEVEL: ACTIONAL. Virgo 20* ..."a
TOTALIZATION OF PURPOSE AND EFFORT." and the fact that I never did apply myself to my schooling as well as I could have. That I certainly but very rarely, if truly ever at all, did give 100% of myself to any endeavor requiring some action on my part as to concerning 'Education' Or if one interprets the symbolism as more to what the 'letter' of the text in which Rudhyar states: [ibid.]
"
...what seems to be clearly implied is a process in which a group of persons are journeying together — thus linking their consciousnesses and energies (the 'car' symbol) — in order to safely reach the goal of destiny. Here there is no longer any sense of competition, but an ordered and structured endeavor.
At this last stage...the past is entirely left behind; men cooperate in the great 'adventure in consciousness' in a TOTALIZATION OF PURPOSE AND EFFORT",
...then it is all the more of an effort as to be as near as monumental a task as that which Yeshu'a/Jesus himself found himself challenged with as any I've have and have yet to see in anyone elses chart, and to be totally honest and sincere, I'm presently considering my own to possibly be closer to the amount of the challenge to the task he faced than anyone elses I've seen to date. ...as most will nod their heads in agreement that have observed my writing here at this forum the last five years and...
of which I haven't any doubt... my closest and most intimate friends and family would surely swear to be a fact, knowing how many years prior to that I endured all sorts of "slings and arrows of outrageous fortune" and 'misfortune' that either prepared me for, or were meant somehow to dissuade me from any consideration in the future to get involved with this task that proceeded all the "efforts" consciously applied directly in purpose, these last 13 years when in June of 2001 I thought that I might like to make it a retirement 'Hobby', or 'Pastime', to noodle around with a couple of theories I had developed about what might have possibly been indicative of the birth of "The Nazz" ... that is to say, what the Magi knew and, or, saw.
For as soon as I had the slightest notion that I actually had a possible viable and good lead, the effort I was expending was far more than what I had initially anticipated...and it's at least five fold more than that presently.
So, what am I getting at?
That I came to a realization that by one possible definition of '"Nemesis", i.e.
"a formidable opponent" {Merriam Webster Dictionary} that such challenges to as such monumental tasks could certainly be said to be "Formidable Opponents" in their own right...and as yet, when accomplished, were also the means of a"'Sudden Advancement" of the most advantageous sort.
It is both a part of Sudden Advancement and Nemesis, in my most humble, but much experienced, opinion... which truly can only be determined as to which title most befitted ones own personal astrology at the end of their life. If they succeeded in accomplishing it, it would be certainly and undoubtedly [to me, anyways, as I'm convinced of this] a "Part of Sudden Advancement".
...and if that individual ignored the call or attempted and didn't succeed, then it could only be said to have been that persons "Nemesis".
