Major Conjunctions

WHEN two planets in the sky come together, forming the conjunction aspect, it signifies that the things on earth ruled by these two planets also have come together in such a manner as to influence world affairs, national affairs and the affairs of cities. The type of influence exerted depends upon the type of energy radiated by the two planets involved in the aspect; and its harmony or discord depends upon the friendliness or enmity of the two planets forming the conjunction, and the way they are aspected at the time by the other planets.

To be more specific: if Mars is one of the planets in the conjunction, events are influenced by machines, manufacturing, industrial workers, soldiers and such things as are ruled by Mars. And because that is the type of influence of the Mars vibration, what comes to pass will involve accident or strife. If Jupiter is the other planet in conjunction, affairs are influenced by treaties, commerce, business, money, religion and the other things Jupiter rules. And because the vibrations of Jupiter are of that type, abundance of something and a tendency toward expansion will be involved.

On the other hand, if Saturn is the other planet making the conjunction, conditions will be influenced by the farmer, the miner, the common laborer, lands, mines, basic utilities, conservatism, and such other matters as Saturn rules. And because Saturn’s vibrations are of that type, selfishness, greed, contraction and lack will be involved.

Not all the affairs of national life will be affected profoundly by the conjunction of two major planets. The house of the chart, erected for the time of the conjunction, in which the conjunction falls indicates a department of life strongly influenced by the coming together of the two groups of factors. And how the converging affairs influence other departments of life is shown by the aspects to other planets in the chart, their house positions and rulerships revealing the departments of life affected. Powerful aspects from the conjunction to other planets show, by the house positions of those planets, the departments of life chiefly affected. The nature of the aspect, and the planet aspected, indicate in what manner the department of life is affected.

When the planets form aspects in the sky, the union of their energy streams produce whirls and vortices which increase the power of these planetary energies to influence the unconscious minds of men.

Within the astral body of each individual are groups of thought cells which act as receiving sets for the energies broadcast by each of the ten astrological orbs. The position of a particular planet in the birth chart maps the place within the unconscious mind where are located the thought cells which act as a natural receiving set for the vibrations of that planet.

When, therefore, this planet is powerfully aspected in the sky, the unconscious minds of people in general are more noticeably influenced by its trend; not because they are more receptive to this planet’s energies, but because this planet’s energies reach them much more vigorously. More energy then is added to the thought cells mapped by the planet in their birth charts, and because these thought cells thus acquire a more than normal activity, they take a more prominent part in determining the thinking, the behavior and the type of events which are attracted.

Furthermore, due to the birth charts of nations and other groups, the receptivity to planetary energy reaching the earth during a given period, is not the same in all areas on the globe. Nations and cities, as indicated by progressed aspects and by the Conjunction Charts and Cycle Charts, vary in the degree of their receptivity to a given planetary stream. An aspect between planets in the sky, such as a Conjunction, broadcasts the same energy to the unconscious minds of all men; but the people in one country may be particularly receptive to it, while the people of another country may have so completely tuned in on another planetary vibration as to notice it hardly at all. It is the function of the Birth Charts, Progressed Aspects, Cycle Charts and Conjunction Charts used in mundane astrology to indicate the degree of receptivity of each important area of the earth to whatever energies are being broadcast from the sky.

All people within a group, however, are not equally receptive to what at the time is being broadcast from the sky; no more so than are all nations. Some individuals within a group may tune in scarcely at all on a given planetary vibration, while a few members may pick up its energies in tremendous volume. And it is these members of the group who respond markedly to a particular planet’s vibrations who largely determine the effect of the particular energy upon the group.

Those having the planet prominent in their charts of birth are more responsive to its vibrations than are those who do not thus have it prominent. That is, they have thought cells within their unconscious minds which act as natural receiving sets for this energy.

But to pick up the planetary energy, radio fashion, in most volume, there must be at the time, a progressed aspect to that planet in the birth chart. Such a progressed aspect forms an aerial which readily picks up the energies of the two planets involved. This energy is thus conducted immediately to the thought cells mapped in the birth chart by the planets. And these thought cells, acquiring so much new energy of their own type, powerfully influence the individual’s thinking, his behavior and the events which at that time come into his life.

In Brotherhood of Light Research work we have had ample opportunity to work out the progressed aspects in the charts of those individuals whose activities were chiefly responsible for the effect produced upon a nation or a city by the heavy aspects present at the time in the sky. And we have found that such individuals had the aspecting planets prominent in their birth charts, and that at the time there was a major progressed aspect to one or both of them.

Heavy Aspects in the Sky Other than Conjunctions

Other aspects in the sky than conjunctions, particularly the heaviest aspects of the more slowly moving planets, have a noticeable affect upon the affairs of cities, nations and the world. And a chart erected for the city or capitol of the country, for the exact time the aspect is perfect, will give much information as to the department of life chiefly affected by the aspect there. Since 1900 the exact Greenwich Mean Time of such aspects is given in the back of Raphael’s Ephemeris.

In Chapter 1 (Serial Lesson 141), some five pages are given to these aspects in the sky other than conjunctions, under the heading: General Astronomical Phenomena (page ). Perhaps these should here be supplemented by considering some other heavy aspects in the sky which have taken place since that chapter/lesson was printed. Quoting from the 1937 issues of THE CHURCH OF LIGHT QUARTERLY:

All the difficulties anticipated from the opposition of Saturn to Neptune in the sky on January 17, 1937, came to pass. Neptune was in Virgo, the harvest sign; and the citrus growers in California were beset with the severest cold in the history of the industry; while Saturn in Pisces, the sign of rivers, brought floods in the Ohio Valley of unprecedented destructiveness.

The hopes for peace agreements in Europe broke completely down; the Japanese cabinet was forced to resign by the military crowd for the first time in history; and in Russia thirteen prominent men were executed, allegedly for attempting the overthrow of the government.

The shipping strike at that time was still under way in the U.S., and to this labor difficulty was added the General Motors strike, and the typically Pluto technique of its sit-down strikers.

On April 22, 1937, Jupiter came to the opposition of Pluto: Clark Gable, popular moving picture star, who had been the subject of an extortion (Pluto) plot, was called by the government as a witness. For a week the newspapers of the nation gave the Extortion Trial, as they called it, tremendous publicity. The verdict, convicting the woman on trial as guilty of mail fraud, thus attempting to get money (Jupiter), was brought in by the jury on April 23.

On April 22, 1937, there were no less than a dozen major strikes in progress, some of the sit-down (Pluto) variety, and the C. I. O. came into unprecedented prominence. April 20, 1937, the newspapers chronicled that 27 nations had combined (Pluto) to place a sanitary cordon of warships (Pluto resorts to force) around Spain. And April 23 bears the headlines that London and Paris had formed an alliance for mutual defense.

Jupiter was again opposition Pluto on May 29, 1937, and on December 18, 1937. Each of these aspects, close to the dates indicated, brought outstanding conflict (opposition aspect) between the Administration of the U. S. and Big Business (Jupiter); the last one also a marked Business (Jupiter) Recession, with the Government demanding; that Labor and Business cooperate (Pluto). And each brought outstanding conflict between the two great labor organizations; the C. I. O. and the A. F. of L., and effort on the part of the Government to get these contending factions to cooperate.

December 12 occurred the malicious and intentional sinking of the American warship, Panay, and three Standard Oil tankers, accompanied by loss of life and machine gunning of survivors, by Japanese bombing planes. By December 18 there was grave danger of war between Japan and the U. S.; and this international incident led to a close cooperation between the U. S. and British navies. The strife was over the attempt of the U. S. to protect her commercial (Jupiter) interests in China.

Such aspects in the sky have some influence during the time they are forming and during the time they are separating over an orb of the same number of degrees that is allowed for the same aspect in a birth chart. In this they are quite different in their influence than the aspects made by progression in a Cycle Chart, which, with the exception of the so swift moving Moon, affects the event only during the time the aspect is within one degree of perfect.

And, just as in birth charts, aspects in the sky have an influence during the time they are within several degrees of orb, even though the aspect is not completed for a long time. For instance, in September 1937, Uranus was Taurus 13, Neptune was Virgo 18 and Jupiter was Capricorn 17. They thus were in a Grand Trine. But Uranus was retrograde and did not complete the trine with Neptune that year; and Jupiter before reaching the trine of Neptune turned retrograde, and did not complete it until the last of October. Yet this Grand Trine was noticeable in all the fields these three planets rule.

Neptune is the planet of the movies, Uranus is the planet which has to do with new things, and Jupiter is the planet of patronage. In September 1937, a new type of movie was presented to the public. In the picture, One Hundred Men and a Girl, for the first time in screen history, undiluted classical music was joined in dramatic unity with the comedy, pathos and suspense which go to make a great picture. And it was a box office (Jupiter) success.

Under this aspect also, to determine to what extent a telepathic (Pluto) sense exists capable of use by the general public, the radio facilities of the National broadcasting Corporation were employed by the Zenith Foundation of Chicago, in comprehensive tests, and in giving to the public authentic instances in which occult powers, not recognized by material science, have been used.

Major Conjunction Charts

What has been said of the other aspects that form in the sky is equally true of major conjunctions. They have an influence not merely over the limited period of time while the two planets are within one degree of the perfect conjunction, but all the while the planets making the conjunction are as close to each other as the common orb allowed for their conjunction in a birth chart. The exact moment of the conjunction, which is the time for which the conjunction chart should be erected, is merely the peak of the influence. Yet the influence of the conjunction upon events can be discerned in a pronounced manner near this time of the exact conjunction.

Such a conjunction is a distinct astrological influence. But the more energy of a given planet present at a certain time, the more work it can do. Therefore, if while the conjunction aspect is within orb of influence, some pronounced aspect by progression forms in the Cycle Chart of one of the two planets; or if in some Cycle Chart one of the planets involved in the conjunction is powerfully aspected by progression, there is enough planetary energy of a particular kind present to attract an event of the nature of the conjunction on that day.

Therefore, in determining the exact days on which the chief events indicated by the conjunction will occur, the various Cycle Charts should be inspected, to ascertain when there is an unusual supply of planetary energy present of the kind indicated by the Conjunction. Whether the accessory energy shown by the progressed aspect in a Cycle Chart is harmonious or discordant is not so important. The general rule is that the chief events occur on those days when there is the most planetary energy of the given kind reaching the earth.

The most effective method of becoming skilled in astrology is the case method, by which the student, after gaining some knowledge of theory, studies actual cases in which astrological positions have resulted in recorded events or conditions. It is my advice that students of mundane astrology copy off on blank charts all the various Cycle Charts and Conjunction Charts given in this course of lessons, and study them in view of what has been recorded relative to the events which they have influenced. Astrological forces often do not work in just the manner those inexperienced expect.

In the study of Major Conjunctions, this course offers 76 charts already erected, embracing examples in proper sequence of all 15 different types of Major Conjunctions, with at least some comment on the event or events attracted by each. Progressed aspects to the positions in the Conjunction Charts should be ignored; but the houses containing planets powerfully aspected by the Conjunction should receive special consideration.

For finding the time of day an aspect is completed, including the conjunction, Rule XI of Chapter 5 (Serial Lesson 111), Course X-II, Progressing the Horoscope, may be used; and the time of all conjunctions here given earlier than 1900 has been calculated by that rule. Since 1900 the precise time of all aspects between the planets, including the conjunctions, are given in the back of Raphael’s Ephemeris; and the time of all conjunctions here given since 1900 has been ascertained from this source.

As dates before 1920 are taken from the Reference History of the World of Webster’s New International Dictionary, in which only a few events are given for each year, the events cited are not so close to the dates of the conjunctions as are those since 1920, which are taken from the WORLD ALMANAC, in which one event or several is given for nearly every day.

To accommodate so many conjunctions, it was found more convenient to distribute their charts in tables to be found in several chapters/lessons of this course. The prefix number here given refers to the number in the table, the chapter/lesson number of the lesson in which the table may be found comes next, and this is followed by the data for which the chart was erected, and the event which coincided with the conjunction.
