Archetypal Astrology Course Unlocks Secrets Of The Cosmos For You

What is archetypal astrology?
  • This is a specific branch or approach to astrology that focuses on the archetypal principles and energies associated with astrological elements like planets, signs, aspects, etc. Rather than trying to make concrete predictions about events and circumstances, archetypal astrology aims to explore the symbolic meanings and psychological patterns represented by astrological symbols and configurations.

Astrology is a type of divination based upon the idea that information about the future or about a person's personality can be discovered through examining the alignment of stars, planets, moons and comets. Astrology attempts to interpret the influence of these celestial bodies on human affairs.

The practice of astrology has been prevalent since ancient times. Some well-known ancient civilizations used this field extensively. Greek astronomer Ptolemy was the first ever person to write a book on Astrology. He codified the sun sign astrology that we know today. Ptolemy tried to predict the positions of celestial bodies relative to each other and the earth through knowledge of their orbital motions. During his time, astrology was a part of astronomy. Later, astronomy became an exact science and Astrology remained a part of Theology.

An Introduction To The Archetypal Astrology Course

Apart from being centers of medicine, Baghdad and Damascus were also known as centers of astrology and astronomy. Arabs were pioneers in astronomy before even the advent of Islam. The Babylonians were the first to name the days of the week after the Sun, Moon, and planets. They were also the first to set out the twelve houses of the horoscope.

Some Key Principles Of Archetypal Astrology Include:

  • It is based on the theory that planets and other astrological factors symbolically represent basic organizing principles of human experience, known as archetypes.
  • Archetypes are cross-cultural symbols like The Hero, The Mother, The Trickster, etc. found in mythology, dreams and art across civilizations.

  • Aspects between planets are seen as symbolic patterning principles showing the interplay of different archetypal forces within the psyche.

  • Chart interpretation focuses on the archetypal narratives, images and themes rather than literal concrete events.

  • It explores the symbolic growth dynamics and meaning-making processes of an individual's psychospiritual journey.

  • There is an emphasis on cultivating psychological self-knowledge through understanding one's astrological archetypes.

So in essence, archetypal astrology provides a mythic, symbolic framework for self-discovery and making meaning of life's experiences through planetary archetypal principles. It moves beyond prediction into depth psychology territory.
