Several interesting things here I'd like to comment on....
Satine: Think not in terms of "aspects" but in terms of "configuration". Note how Dr. Farr uses the word "configuration" in his original reply to your thread*. Look to the Whole Chart and you may see mental illness (although the chart does not necessarily proclaim this in 48pt. Boldface type.) [*"I can't really think of a more "evil" configuration, than this-which certainly fits as characterizing the most devastating and epoch changing war in recorded history."]
Birch Dragon: My personal viewpoint is this: Most of mankind, with very few exceptions, is bound by fate to be what the Cosmic requiires at the Moment. I see the horoscope as the "graphic representation" of a Moment in spacetime. I see the person represented by that horoscope as the Moment made Manifest (The Spirit made Flesh.) This Moment has purpose, and sometimes the purpose appears "evil" or negative to us; but the purpose must be fulfilled.
Consider what Paul says: "Nay but, O man who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus? Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honor, and another unto dishonor?" (Rom. 9: 20-21)
And to this I would add more words from Victor Frankl: “Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”
Satine, that is not sad. It is nobility.
Yes that is nobility.
