Sagittarius: The 9th Sign of the Zodiac
November 21 through December 21
I See
True Religion is the Discernment of the Divine Plan and Conscious Cooperation in its Fulfillment.
Aiming to See Clearly...
Sagittarius, the Archer of the sky, stands with bow drawn toward the Scorpion’s heart—a timeless symbol of protecting humanity from self-absorption and ignorance. The act of taking aim is itself a teaching: intention is what directs consciousness, allowing it to grow, expand, and reach higher ground. The Archer represents the Higher Mind—our capacity for wisdom, exploration, teaching, long journeys, publishing, and sharing beliefs openly. Its core message is simple: truth expands when it is shared.
The Higher Mind blends scientific understanding with inner vision. From this perspective, the universe is not a mechanical system but a living organism. Every being, like a cell in a greater body, plays a unique role that contributes to the whole. The cosmos is evolving with purpose—ever unfolding into greater complexity, guided by an expansive and intelligent Divine Plan.
The Higher Mind seeks to understand this Plan as fully as possible. It asks: Where can I be of greatest service? By recognizing its own talents and potential, it discovers where it can offer the most meaningful contribution. And once that purpose is revealed, it commits wholeheartedly.
Those born under Sagittarius often feel a deep urge to understand life by balancing mental exploration with movement, fresh air, and open horizons. Without this balance, their energy can drain quickly and leave them caught in intense or restless thought. Sagittarians shine brightest when engaged in work that fascinates them—tasks that feel like play, with success itself becoming the adventure.

Constructive Religious Urges express as Benevolence, Good Will, and Charity toward the opinions of others.
O Thou Eternal Spirit, in Whom I live, move, breathe and have my Being! Bring to me the realization that my intellectual powers are meant for use. Let me appraise life fully and analyze completely, with sound judgment and good sense the experiences the environment brings to me. Inspire me to take pleasure in being an efficient thinking member of the Universal Order.
In this classic series, Elbert Benjamine explains the astrological significance of the sign Sagittarius and its relationship to Arcanum VII, The Conqueror tarot card...to be a Conqueror is to demonstrate mastery over all three worlds: physical, mental and spiritual.
The Conqueror card expresses:
In the spiritual world—the rule of spirit over matter.
In the mental world—wisdom and influence.
In the physical world—harnessing the elements and forces of nature to serve human intelligence and will.
ADMONITION paraphrased from The Sacred Tarot:
Remember, then, child of Earth, that true power in life belongs to those who have mastery over their spirit—the light that reveals life’s mysteries. If the Conqueror appears in your horoscope, it indicates that by overcoming obstacles, you’ll defeat your challenges, and your goals will come to fruition. Approach the future boldly, confident in your right to succeed.

The Brotherhood of Light Lessons and the Aquarian Age
A new spiritual dispensation is at hand, where the love and compassion of the Piscean Age are enhanced by the wisdom that comes from a deeper understanding of the Nature of Reality brought by the new Aquarian Age and thus Religion is wed to Science. Our Brotherhood of Light lessons are the bridge that caries us into this New Age by combining the best of the Ancient Teachings with the wonders of our new discoveries. Nothing stays the same we must all adapt to the flood of new information.
Why Astrology and the Tarot are so important to understanding Traditional Knowledge
The word Kabala signifies traditional knowledge. It thus refers to the Oral Law, as handed down from antiquity; and embraces the occult traditions of all lands and all peoples. Often it is used merely as referring to the esoteric doctrines of the Jews; but in its broader sense it includes also the secret doctrine of other races. This secret doctrine, common to many lands, was jealously guarded from the profane, and was never permitted to pass into writing except in such ambiguous terms as to baffle the uninitiated as to its true purport. In this sense the sacred books of the world, including the Avesta, the Vedas and the Bible are largely kabalistical; for they set forth traditions that are capable of an inner, or esoteric, interpretation. In fact, there are usually several interpretations possible, each more inner version revealing a deeper truth to those who have advanced along the path far enough to comprehend it.
And this seems the proper place to point out that the unwritten kabala, like the written kabala, is set forth in symbolical language, with purposeful blinds and subterfuges to confuse the uninitiated; so that of the few who undoubtedly exist at the present day who have received it, most remain in as much ignorance of its true interpretation as the majority of students do after studying the more accessible written kabala. This unwritten kabala has been transmitted only through certain secret schools. Those receiving it well merit what is given to them. They are left to their own devices in the matter of interpretation. And because the real keys to its interpretation—astrology and the tarot—have been largely ignored, or distorted, they have floundered sadly in arriving at its meaning. Whether written or unwritten, the kabala is a philosophy correlated to esoteric astrology as exemplified by the tarot; and it can only be comprehended fully by those who perceive the true relation between astrological energies and their pictured tarot exemplification.
