Finishing off from last time, here we are going to quickly cover the last three luminaries, these ones will be as what some may know them as the trans-Saturnian luminaries. These powers you'll find have some peculiar traits that the others seem to lack. For one, these luminaries all all higher-octaves of three other luminaries, and second... they are also not tied to any particular time and day, for they exist 'above' what we know as time, which as we covered last time is ruled by Saturn. Stay tuned for the next installment as we'll be covering the Planetary days and hours!

As we dove into last time, we will continue see more references in scriptuies, ancient depictions and maps of how the ancients have always known that we live on a flat stationary plane. Numerous times as many long time viewers of Syncretism have witnessed, these works can also be seen in the patterns observed in nature, both above us like the analema for instance and even in chaotic storms, to even within ourselves. As above so below, as within so without.

Here in the sign of Libra, what occurs is what is known as 'Sublimination', which in physics is what happens when a solid object transitions straight to a gaseous form and bypassing the liquid stage. This of course is poetic here, however it is still a step in the process. Alchemically speaking, this also shows the process of the transmutation of the denser energies and components within us, changing them from a mundane 'gross' nature to a more sublime 'subtle' nature. Moreover, with the rulership of Libra being Venus along with the Exaltation of Saturn, this also highlights the influence these luminaries. Venus residing on the bottom Pillar of Mercy, while Saturn residing high on the Pillar of Severity. Beginning with the Venusian love, but refining and directing it with the disipline of Saturn. The Mother and the Father. The love of the Mother, lead by the Wisdom of the Father. This is also why we must appreciate both of these influences. While both have their virtuous gifts, just as easily they both carry their vices and malignant traps. Saturn can become cold, mechanical and even over restrictive to the point of suffocation, while Venus can lead into hedonism, love of perverse desires and twisted ideologies and values. The virtues of one, negates the vices of the other. Check out more of Chris's content Inner Mysteries (Website) Eclectic Mysteries (Youtube) Eclectic Mysteries (Patreon)
