I will share my experience on this topic and how i
came to current belief , since you enjoy reading variety of experiences.
When i was younger i didnt want to believe in any sort of limitations, ambitous but arrogant, refusing the wisdom of the ages of our ancestors.
The more overwhelming challenges and obstacles made me realize i need a wiser approach to life because nothing was working.
I realized from personality traits to events and themes in my life very much corresponded to my astrological make up and refusing it at that point felt silly, i can’t change some core parts of personality as that wouldn’t be me.
Reading about other cultures most had their astrological systems and working with its energies because they could see the interconnected patterns how it influences big society level movements as well as individuals.
Romans would do a ritual honoring a specific planet or deity associated with it for example Jupiter for business growth and success when starting a venture.
Greeks sang hymns to planets and deities in specific planatery timings, many cultures had their methods, Arabic mystical schools have extremely complex talisman designs to tap into planatery energies. Indians tracked the date of birth to the minute and second to be able to accurately predict ones destiny.
“As above so below” the old hermetic axiom of wisdom,the macrocosm reflects into the microcosm of our lives.
This matrix game we are in has its mechanics/systems in place and it’s easier and wiser to work in ones advantage with the systems than get screwed by them.
I think such topics have been intentionally dumbed down to hide it in plain sight from masses, because when you look at some shallow horoscope bs or hippie preaching it u dont take it seriously and think its all bs.
But i have known people with phd from most prestigious universities, very high academia backround, highly intellegent and successful not only believe but actively practice it in their lives.
People tend to unconsciously associate the correct archetypes to its rulling planet even without knowing anything about astrology, how often people associate beauty, love, feminine to Venus, fashion industry is full of correspondences to Venus.
Some elites, big corpo logos lots of planatery correspondences nothing by accident.
I have seen and know people try to weponize planatery energies and it can turn very nasty and with big consequences. Everyone starts believing when shit gets real and a punch to the face lands.
Some use it for love, some for business, status, spirituality … Etc all the usuall human cravings
It is useful to counteract to some extent the pitfalls and shortcomings in our chart and maximise our potential with the cards we were given by working with this framework.
My personal experience with Venus energies were intensely pleasurable and beautiful.
I dont work much now with this framework but i intend to, i want to see how much i can push my astrological potential.
Still got the old gamer rpg stategicial min/ max mindset and want to see the crazy extents i can stack up and push some things especially in combination and correspondence with subliminals.
Full khan + khan black + planatery energies of charm, status, attraction i want to know and experience how crazy that’s gonna get.
Just like as a kid i wanted to stack items and build in a game to see the effects.
