The troubles of a certain Mr A and idea of pre-destination

imagesDirecting by triplicity gives a quick and easy thumbnail sketch of one’s entire life.

The idea is to look at the main luminary and it’s three classical triplicity rules (by element) and examine not only their ‘condition’ use classical rules but also the areas of life they govern; the 1st triplicity ruler governs the first 1/3 of your life, the 2nd triplicity ruler governs the second 1/3 of your life and of course the 3rd triplicity ruler governs the final 1/3 of your life. There are no hard and fast rules regarding when one moves from one life phase to another but generally the first transition occurs around aged 30 years and the last transition about aged 60 years.

The following is a quick case study for a certain Mr A who, now in the second 1/3 of his life, has met up with some daunting difficulties which when using classical astrology, are all too apparent in his natal chart:

  • Triplicity ruler for the mid-part of Mr A’s life is Mars which is at 10 Pisces.
  • Mars is in the terms of Venus and out of sect, because it is in the hemisphere of the Sun rather than the Moon where it preferably belongs.
  • According to the Liber Hermetis, an out of sect Mars in Pisces will lead to being ‘subordinates of great men’. It also suggests that Mr A will ‘work as if a slave’ and will have ‘little regard for danger’, throwing himself into ‘violent situations’ where he ‘looses his mind’ with the ‘excitement of it all’.
  • According to the Liber Hermetis, Mars in the terms of Venus suggests that although he ‘will have many lovers and beautiful daughters’, Mr A will ‘lose money’ and ‘find it difficult to commit to a relationship’.

Now I realise that all of this sounds much too fatalistic to appeal to 21st century ideas of ‘freedom of choice’ and ‘psychological growth’. However it does indicate that at some level our lives are pre-destined and at the moment, I’m at a loss on how to suggest it might be otherwise.
