Tarot: The Hanged Man and The World

The Hanged Man (Arcana 12) represents a man upside down, forming a cross with the position of his legs (a cross over an inverted triangle, which would be the silhouette of his body upside down). This would signify the subjugation of the spirit to matter.

The garland of The World (Arcana 21) represents the union of Heaven and Earth, and it is the triangle that now overlays the cross, with spirit becoming the dominant force.

Two sides of the same coin: the Hanged Man is sacrificed for his ideals and through his submission, and The World reveals to us the final result of the Hanged Man’s redemption.

[nobluras]

Tarot: The World

• We could consider the numbered Minor Arcana as an extension of Major Arcana XXI, The World.

• The wheel or the globe may have originated from the symbol of the Greater Fortune used by geomancers, surrounded by the four living creatures of Ezekiel.

• It corresponds to the four cardinal points, the four elements, and the four evangelists.

• The human figure has the head of a man and the body of a woman, representing the union of masculine and feminine without the predominance of one over the other.

• The oval shape evokes the union of Heaven and Earth, spirit and matter, ascent and descent, and the three primary colors: blue (spirit), yellow (mind), and red (matter).

• The World is the last of the numbered arcana, following the Fool; it is, therefore, the end and fulfillment. Arcana 12 (the Hanged Man) represents sacrifice, and The World (21) represents its redemption.

• This card usually signifies success and fulfillment, as well as personal realization and the fulfillment of desires. If it appears next to malefic cards, it improves the outlook.

• Reversed: it means obstacles and difficulties appear. The world becomes very heavy and “carrying it” becomes very difficult. One must pay close attention to travel, relationships, habits and daily life, popularity, and spiritual-physical well-being.

[nobluras]

Some astrological observations:

• Although many point to Jupiter as representing a person’s spouse or married life, in reality it is Saturn and the 10th house that take care of this.

• To practice witchcraft, it is very important to observe Lilith and the water signs in our natal chart.

• Planets that are in exalted signs have a lot of potential; however, if they are afflicted, one must try to figure out what is blocking the energy and preventing its full potential from being expressed.

• The strength that Mars provides to Aries and Scorpio is so strong but so different that we could be talking about one type of initiative driven by the adrenaline of achieving something, and another driven by the adrenaline of having previously felt something intense. So, we could say that Aries, thinking about the future, gains the necessary strength to take action, and Scorpio, thinking about the past, acts based on what has been experienced.

• In many cases, when someone has Chiron in a certain house, due to painful experiences related to that house, they have the potential to become a teacher and help others with that topic (the wounded healer).

SUN-MOON ASPECTS

Sun Sextile or Trine the Moon

The native can easily develop the qualities of their Sun sign in their personality as they grow and mature. This is because, as a child, when they behaved according to their Moon sign for protection and nurturing, life experiences push them to become more outgoing and adventurous in the world (Sun), and thus to shine with their own inner personality that does not depend on the need to be cared for or nurtured. Since this is a harmonious aspect between planets, it will not be difficult for the individual to integrate the Sun into themselves.

When Jupiter aspects one of these planets harmoniously, possibilities of marriage and good health are seen; due to the planet’s sociability and extroversion, the native will achieve good relationships with their peers and relatives, and will have significant wealth. This relationship between the Sun and Moon will help the person to harmonize both their emotional and rational sides, leading to self-confidence and security.

If Pluto or Mars negatively affects one of the two planets, strong emotional outbursts due to jealousy, provocation, insults, anger, or frustration are possible.

If there are no other negative aspects that indicate a complicated family life (see Chiron in conjunction or badly aspected, or other malefic planets in the 4th house), then it could be said that the native felt all their basic needs for nurturing were met as a child (Moon), and therefore, a good psychosocial development that will help them face the world with conviction through parental encouragement (Sun).

In the event that Saturn forms a favorable aspect to either of the two, the native will demonstrate great responsibility and good results at work, provided they are constant in their objectives. As they mature, they will become a very respected figure among their peers and will have a good social status.

If this Saturn aspect is unfavorable, the person might feel "less than" in comparison to others, *even if the good Sun-Moon relationship indicates the contrary. A severe or authoritarian father in their life who did not perform acts of service for the child is possible;

This is very important because the father symbolizes our extroversion (Sun) with the world once we leave the uterine embryo of the mother (Moon); therefore, pessimism, impediments to social progress, obstacles, and disappointments are recurrent.

Sun Square or Opposition the Moon

In these cases, the native may have felt that, from a young age, they were instilled with ways of being and behaving that were distant from their true purpose and "true self" hidden somewhere in their soul. It is possible that the relationship with their first attachment figures was affected by disagreements or differing viewpoints during the native's adolescence, but these do not necessarily have to be intensely conflictive unless indicated by the natal chart.

If Saturn, Mars, Pluto, Neptune, or Uranus negatively affect (or harshly aspect) one of these signs, it could indicate issues ranging from the imposition of rigid rules, distant and authoritarian figures (Saturn), to parental negligence and arrogance, abrupt and faulty changes, unexpected births, emotional coldness, and authority (Uranus).

All this is reinforced if it manifests in the 4th house (or if the signs of Capricorn and Aquarius are in this house: isolation-containment of emotions and being the "black sheep of the family").

In some cases, if Mars negatively aspects one of these two planets and there is a predominance of the fire element, it indicates frustration and anger issues in the person. However, if Mars aspects them positively, there is a progression toward mental calmness when the native reaches maturity, channeling those impulsive thoughts into courage and bravery to develop their character and true convictions.

By synchronizing their rational mind (Sun) and emotional mind (Moon), the person will be able to feel that neither of these will cloud their judgment in decisions; they will have greater self-confidence to define their own personality and, through the healing of traumas, move towards self-acceptance.

If both planets positively aspect the Midheaven, progress is further reinforced.

If the aspect is negative, the native will feel that obstacles block their path to achieving their desires or that they will lose the "meaning of life" due to the clouded judgment of their emotions and pessimism.

MERCURY

Origins and Significance

According to the Hermetic tradition, Mercury is the principle that embodies God's will to cease being pure Unity and to separate in order to manifest itself in matter and the earthly plane. Ancient Arabic texts mention a sage who lived in ancient Egypt called Hermes Trismegistus, or Hermes the Three Times Great, a name given by alchemists, Neoplatonists, and mystics to the Egyptian god Thoth, who was identified with the Greek god Hermes. The god Thoth was associated with the cosmic intellectual aspects present in the creation of the universe (writing and sciences: medicine, astrology, and mathematics). For this reason, he was named the “Lord of the Divine Words” (Cintia Prates, De Thot a Hermes Trismegisto: el antiguo Egipto y el hermetismo árabe, Revista Espaco Astrológico).

Copenhaver (1992), cited in Rocío De la Hera, posits:

“Astrological texts are the earliest testimonies of Hermetic literature. A mid-2nd century B.C. astrology manual written by an anonymous author attributed his work to a pharaoh who had ruled five centuries earlier, and to the priest Petosiris, possibly a historical figure from the 4th century B.C., who would have received his revelation from Hermes Trismegistus. It is the first mention we have of Hermes’s authority in a source. There were astrology treatises that interpreted specific natural events such as thunder or earthquakes based on the date and their zodiacal location” (pp. 42-43).

Hermes acted as a communicator between both worlds: the infernal and the celestial, taking charge of escorting the souls of the deceased to the world of the dead. Thus, he became a vehicle of transition between humans and gods, facilitating exchanges between the world above and the world below (a "negotiator of souls"). This is highly significant because due to this very belief, Hermes was considered “logos” (reason) in the Hellenistic period and demiurgic (the creating reason of the universe), a term used by many philosophers, such as Plato himself (Sánchez et al., 2019, cited in Rocío De la Hera, 2023).

Cintia Prates declares that:

“Greek Hermetism, as practiced in Roman Egypt, encompassed fields of knowledge such as astrology, cosmology, and medicine. It describes a philosophical doctrine revealed by Hermes, through which his disciples could know and understand the soul, the universe, and God. However, humans lived at the mercy of fate and the forces of the cosmos.”

And although many declared that the Hermetica was Arabic, Greek, or Egyptian, it could actually be confirmed that:

“Mahé asserts that the Greek texts are based on the Egyptian genre of aphoristic instructions. Fowden argues that the genesis of the Hermetica can only be understood when placed within the social context of Roman Egypt. These speculations make the Hermetica a document that is neither Greek nor Egyptian in essence, but a product of Roman Egyptian society, synthesizing the practices of these two cultures. In other words, a society that must be understood without separating the Greek and Egyptian characteristics” (From Thot a Hermes Trimegisto: el antiguo Egipto y el hermetismo árabe, Revista Espaco Astrológico).

Astronomy and Astrology

In astronomy, Mercury, the planet closest to the Sun, acts as the depositary of the fundamental secret of the mental creation of the universe. As the messenger of the gods and the mystic Hermes Trismegistus, it embodies the duality and the friction necessary for observable manifestation, being simultaneously the negotiator who resolves these tensions. This concept is mirrored in physics by the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, where the observing mind is active and alters the system, demonstrating that objectivity is a fiction and that everything is inherently subjective.

Mercury is the creator of the cosmos and the mind from this duality, and its task is twofold: to create this observable friction of duality and, at the same time, declare that everything is one (unity):

What is above is also below because everything is the same. Everything is mental, and its function is both to create the world and to reunite all the parts into an integrated whole (unity). It is the creator of duality and the integrator of this duality across all its manifestations. This reinforces its role as the ultimate negotiator.

This dual function is astrologically reflected in its two rulerships, Gemini and Virgo:

The former is the associative facet that collects facts, figures, and links everything in a game of infinite mirrors (the fragmented consciousness), gathering the pieces of the puzzle, while the latter is the integrative force that systematizes and classifies this sea of information, transforming it from a threat into a whole that is digestible, manageable, and operable.

Evolutionary Mercury

Evolutionary Mercury is fundamentally the principle that establishes separate and personal consciousness, essential in the stages of individual evolution. This is evidenced in the stage of infant development where the child distances himself from the lunar fusion with the mother, perceiving himself as a distinct subject in a world of separate objects. This distancing is initiated and mitigated through language: by naming things, the child adopts power over the world and reduces the distance between what is separate and what is now knowable, allowing a new form of reunion. The mother is no longer a physical extension, but a mental concept; by renaming and manipulating the world through language, the individual evolves and fuses again with their environment in a mental way.

The hands and movement are the physical representation of Mercury, symbolizing its capacity to grasp, move objects away, and displace itself at any distance, actively manipulating the environment.

Alchemical Mercury

At the cerebral level, Alchemical Mercury transforms nervous impulses into creations, operating a process of knowledge where a physical sensation provoked by an object (the mother) is conceived of as a sign (phonemes) and is transformed into an abstract concept (my mother). This mental alchemy goes from sensation to sign and to concept, reflecting the Gemini facets that collect the data and Virgo that systematizes and orders them into conceptual structures. The Alchemical Mercury can be conceptualized as a crucial mediating function in the realm of knowledge and creation, operating as a cerebral process that translates nervous impulses into elaborations manifested in the world. This process is equated to alchemical transmutation, where sensory perception is elevated to conceptual abstraction. Specifically, upon perceiving a significant object or person, such as the mother, through sensory communication, an internal transformation is initiated. The mere sound of the concept and the concept itself are part of this alchemy of knowledge (José Millán, 2024).

CHIRON: ABILITIES AND GIFTS

Chiron in Aries or the 1st House

They must launch themselves into the world and live the life they desire. Their greatest gift is courage. They often hesitate to move forward due to insecurity, but when they do, they overcome obstacles. They must be brave and walk on their own without waiting for others to follow. They are natural leaders. Their healing gift is helping others find their own courage.

Chiron in Taurus or the 2nd House

They have the ability and gift to manifest abundance (connected to their soul). Their second gift is the capacity to enjoy life and the present moment without rushing, as well as a deep connection to nature.

Chiron in Gemini or the 3rd House

They possess a powerful gift of communication that helps others transform and heal. Others understand them easily— their language is sensitive, symbolic, emotional. They can explain complex topics in simple terms. By expressing themselves and speaking openly, they can heal others through their words.

Chiron in Cancer or the 4th House

Their gift is nurturing, caring for, and protecting others— a maternal, comforting energy. They also have the gift of soothing their own emotions and becoming a safe space for themselves. Many disconnect from their inner child or hide their emotions (feeling like they don’t belong or lacking joy). Reconnecting with their inner child activates their gift. They hold enormous empathy and naturally make others feel safe, helping heal childhood and emotional wounds for both children and adults.

Chiron in Leo or the 5th House

Their gift is their own light and the ability to show themselves to the world without fear of shame. They possess strong creative power that touches others’ hearts, creating their own brilliance. When they connect with their Sun, they gain confidence— though they often feel talentless or lacking light. They also have a special gift with children.

Chiron in Virgo or the 6th House

Their gift is healing and bringing order to their own life, allowing themselves to be happy while embodied on Earth. They often struggle to enjoy life through the senses or may experience issues with health or hygiene. They tend to be highly self-critical. Instead of harming themselves, they must practice self-care and healing to be well— and then support others through their intelligence and problem-solving skills.

Chiron in Libra or the 7th House

They have the gift of harmonizing conflicts— in their environment or between people. They can correct injustices and restore balance; they are peace-makers. They must observe their own inner balance (without judgment) to harmonize themselves. They are talented, intelligent, and diplomatic. Their wound lies in relationships, as they fear emotional pain. They must learn to have relationships that include pain without rejecting it, and to

Chiron in the 8th House or Scorpio

These individuals carry immense inner power. They can face any challenge or deeply complex situation, even if they initially feel powerless or unable to defend themselves. Their true gift is transformation and regeneration—like the phoenix rising from its ashes. To activate this gift, they must first confront their own inner terror, trauma, and fears.

They possess intense intuitive, psychological, and psychic abilities, making them natural healers and psychologists. They find beauty in the shadows and can guide others through grief, crisis, and deep emotional suffering. Their presence alone can transform darkness into wisdom.

Chiron in the 9th House or Sagittarius

They hold the gift of inspiring and guiding others through their expansive vision and natural wisdom. They are teachers, seekers, and philosophers at heart. However, their wound makes them want to escape life’s pain, avoiding the deeper questions that life presents.

To unlock their gift, they must stop running from suffering and instead explore it with courage: Why does pain exist? What truth lies behind it?

They are brave adventurers who uplift others during difficult times and help them discover their purpose, truth, and meaning. Their mission is to inspire, but they must first commit to their own personal and spiritual growth.

Chiron in the 10th House or Capricorn

They often fear responsibility, leadership, or their own potential. They doubt their abilities and feel insecure about their career path or public role.

Yet their gifts are extraordinary:

• they can lead with compassion, strength, and integrity,

• they can build stable, long-lasting achievements,

• and they can discover a vocation that deeply resonates with their soul.

Their wounds around confidence and self-worth can become their greatest strengths through perseverance.

A Chiron in the 10th House thrives when they choose a path of service—helping others through their wisdom, structure, and resilience.

Chiron in the 11th House or Aquarius

Their gift is to unite people and create community. Their wound comes from feeling different, strange, or rejected by groups—yet their healing power lies exactly in those spaces of belonging.

They are highly sensitive to collective pain and have a strong sense of justice. They can navigate the emotional landscape of communities with clarity and compassion.

Innovative, intelligent, and creative, they bring fresh ideas that benefit society. They are natural advocates for minorities and those who feel excluded. Their healing mission is to restore the sense of belonging within groups and bring collective healing.

Chiron in the 12th House or Pisces

Their gift is spiritual wisdom. They have the ability to connect deeply with their soul and help others reach their own sacred inner space.

Their wound is a profound sense of loneliness, emptiness, or disconnection. To heal, they must recognize the infinite love, unity, and wholeness already within them.

They understand the language of the unconscious, intuition, dreams, and the invisible realms. Many become powerful therapists or practitioners of subconscious healing modalities.

Their mission is personal and spiritual healing, as well as serving humanity. Highly artistic and sensitive, they can create extraordinary beauty that touches the collective soul.

THE MOON

The Moon regulates biological cycles, the tides, and the menstrual cycles of women (outside urban environments, in ancient times women tended to menstruate with the New Moon and ovulate with the Full Moon). Crops are planted with the waxing Moon and pruned with the waning Moon. Men and women in agricultural or pre-agricultural societies synchronized their biological rhythms and their interaction with Mother Earth according to the Moon’s clock. Years were measured in Moons instead of months.

The Moon operates on all levels in Nature: it is the egg, the nest, the womb, the home, the cave or shelter, the Earth as mother and fertile soil. The Moon is reflected in every concave form that can contain, protect, and give shape to embryonic life. This form is the spatial-temporal-psychic-emotional matrix in which the other energies find comfort and growth for their future expression and expansion.

This lunar space allows the growth of a new being; the solar process of differentiation needs lunar safety, nourishment, and protection in order to develop. A common manifestation of the lunar shadow is the suppression of individual expression when they feel the safety of the lunar group is in danger.

While lunar energy acts “automatically” or reflectively, solar energy acts rationally, with intention. The connection between feminine and masculine energies is vital, since most of our actions originate reflexively and are later continued consciously (first in the Moon and then expressed through the Sun). This explains why some people identify more with their Moon sign than their Sun sign: they haven’t yet left the comfort zone that gives them security, or they unconsciously repeat patterns from childhood.

Lived experiences are transformed into memories that pass into the lunar domain, enriched or altered by the emotions associated with them, to be later returned to the solar domain. Thus, we act consciously, but our decisions come from an unconscious emotional source that has pushed us to become who we are since our mother’s womb—whether due to early experiences or genetic inheritance.

The Moon symbolizes memories, intimacy, rest, photographs, water, motherhood, partnership, affection, protection, the comfort of being with someone.

The Moon does not express the person’s energy itself, but rather the type of energy that constituted their childhood protective environment and that they need and expect to find as a refuge in their adult life. This implies that the adult may live under the illusion that this childhood energy—this original refuge, frequently associated with one of the parents or grandparents—continues to be present in an unconditional and automatic way.

Planets located near the nodal axis in the natal chart acquire special significance, since we tend to integrate them in a particular way. Likewise, planets transiting this axis will be “absorbed” and processed by the individual’s psyche in an especially intense manner. The same applies to synastry between the planets of one person and the nodes of another.

The position of this axis marks the point through which the external world incarnates within us and is absorbed into our experiential field (North Node), and correspondingly the point through which this experience of encounter with the other is evacuated outward, translating inner forms (South Node).

The nodal axis embodies, in the words of Liz Greene, the point of access through which others affect our growth and personal development. It is fundamentally an axis of manifestation. The relationship between planets and nodes in conjunctions within synastry symbolizes the process of assimilation by the person whose North Node forms a conjunction with a planet in someone else’s chart.

For example, if someone’s Mars is conjunct my North Node, a relationship with this person will generate an experience through which I assimilate my own Mars.

However, if the other person’s Mars falls on my South Node, you perfectly recognize those Martian qualities in the other because you have already experienced or lived them; and because you know them so well, they become a pattern that is very predictable for you—but also very exhausting (due to Mars’ aggressiveness) or one that does not progress, does not evolve.

IMPORTANT: MOONS ON THE NODAL AXIS

Regarding natal charts, when the Moon falls on the native’s North Node, it may mean that their life mission is to develop emotionally through the sign and house where it is placed, taking its aspects into account (being easier or more difficult depending on the characteristics represented by that specific Moon).

Likewise, a Moon conjunct the South Node in a natal chart means that you know lunar dynamics perfectly well; you probably have very high emotional intelligence and have inherited a great sensitivity to understand emotions and attachment both in yourself and in those around you. Since you have already learned all this, your North Node invites you to develop your independence and conscious awareness in order to make the most of these lunar abilities.

The North Node is frequently associated with Jupiter, and the South Node with Saturn.

SATURN: The Guardian Planet of the Solar System through Ancient History

Saturn represents the harvest, and in Latin, its name comes from Satorn, which means “sower” or “the one who harvests.” It is often associated with karma and is considered one of the malefic planets for this reason: it is the one who reaps what is sown—whether good or bad. This occurs in cycles of 7, 14, 21, and 28 years (since Saturn’s square/opposition/return in a natal chart happens every 7 years).

Saturn reminds us that we are responsible for our actions. This cause-and-effect principle tells us that not everyone is obligated to sow, but we are all obligated to reap what has been sown. It is also a symbol of freedom, reminding us that we are independent and autonomous when it comes to our own harvest and our own effort (thanks to its co-rulership of Aquarius). Freedom is a product of Saturn, since it creates spaces for freedom within reality, setting the boundary between the personal and the transpersonal. It helps us find our place and shows us how to be free, allowing us to unfold and mature freely in our actions and decisions.

As the so-called Guardian of the Threshold, Saturn marks the limits between the personal and transpersonal (beyond him appear Chiron, Pluto, Uranus, and Neptune). With him, we work with what is our own—our personal skills and abilities.

Where Saturn is located, we are shown limitations; what challenges us or brings us difficulty will help us turn a portion of light and spirit into potential matter, through a series of tools that guide us toward the future. On a physical level, Saturn’s symbol represents time, space, and therefore death (with the scythe), since death is the end of our time.

Saturn in Aquarius preserves the new, and must integrate and accept Uranus in order to embrace change. It represents both laws written in stone (unchangeable) and social norms (which are open to change).

Meanwhile, in Capricorn, it focuses on discipline and daily work that is carried out slowly and steadily until completion, as well as the responsibility that comes with actions, which depends solely on the individual.

In Greek mythology, the Starry God Uranus did not take responsibility for his children and kept them imprisoned within Gaia, his wife. However, Gaia, weary of this, freed them and gave a flint sickle to her eldest son, Saturn, so that he could castrate his father Uranus—and from his genitals, Aphrodite was born. Thus, a new era began for the gods. This is why Saturn also symbolizes the Golden Age and is honored in the Saturnalia festivals of December. Since Saturn castrated his father, he believed that others could do the same to him and dethrone him as ruler of the Titans. As a result, he devoured all his children, repeating the same cycle across generations, from father to son. Yet the most surprising part is that, after being swallowed, they did not dissolve but remained frozen in time, paralyzed by the fear of castration: “If I let them be, they will dethrone me.”

“We castrate what must be castrated”—focusing our action on one area to bring about the Golden Age: to be masters of ourselves and open doors. Saturn teaches us to be free through responsibility, which comes from the Latin respondo, meaning “to respond.” And in order to respond for our actions, we must break our limits. Although Saturn is a limiter, its function is not only to castrate but also to create a space where the energy of the other planets can be contained.

In many famous military leaders and athletes, there are numerous aspects between Mars and Saturn, and this is no surprise: here Saturn safeguards social norms and human responsibility through figures of authority, power, or skill. This is why people say that there is no planet better than Saturn, because all the others work for him. Mars, being castrated by Saturn, will work for him and under his rules. Mercury, on the other hand, wishes to become a teacher and strategist, but Saturn’s limitations, which force him to feel insecure in speech, compel him to work harder in order to become a potential master of his subject. Saturn uses discipline to forge experts in the making.

NEPTUNE: The planet of the longing for redemption.

From an astronomical point of view, it is a celestial body far larger than Earth and forty times farther from the Sun compare to the Earth. It is described as cobalt in color and shares almost the same chemical composition as Uranus. It is not easily visible; instead, it appears cloudy, almost blurry (which reinforces Pisces “magical” quality), whereas Uranus can be seen with greater ease (both are gas giants).

Neptune was discovered thanks to the work of French mathematician Urbain Le Verrier, who noticed irregularities in Uranus’s orbit and concluded that another planet must exist beyond it (this reinforces Neptune’s principle of acting through the unseen, manifesting almost ghostlike). First it was intuited, perceived, and finally confirmed on September 23, 1846 when Johann Galle observed it through a telescope, following Le Verrier’s calculations. It was named Neptune, after the god of the Sea, due to its color.

Neptune symbolizes the negation of Uranus, the denial of space-time, and just like its magical aura, it also represents danger for embodying the unknown.

* Neptune’s symbol, which is also the trident of the Sea God, corresponds to the Greek letter Ψ (Psi). The Greeks interpreted it as the wings and stem of a butterfly, believing that the human soul left the body after death in the form of a butterfly. From this comes the word Psychology, the study of the human soul.

* In quantum mechanics, when Schrödinger defined the wave function, he named it Psi, and quantum physicists still use this symbol today. The wave function describes the probability space in which a particle can be found, in one state or another (where and how)—something very Neptunian. From this, some astrologers draw parallels to support astrology scientifically, through the concept of the wave function.

Quantum entanglement states that two particles can remain connected and synchronized even when separated by vast distances—something that, according to the Theory of Relativity, would be impossible. But in a similar way, it is said that the sky and stars influence life on Earth (astrology). Here, both sciences meet: different, valid in their own domains, yet contradictory.

This is reflected in phenomena like telepathy or déjà vu, which embody the denial of space-time: when a human being anticipates events that have not yet occurred, or experiences situations without having been physically present. In this sense, astrology finds resonance with quantum physics.

In astrological transits, Neptune can appear in a magical or transcendent way, and at other times like a tsunami engulfing the individual self. On a global scale, communism, socialism, and Russia’s history are tied to Neptune-Saturn transits. The largest oceanic planet in the solar system mirrors the vast nations of China and Russia, with their Neptunian qualities. It is no coincidence that both Putin and Xi Jinping have Saturn-Neptune conjunctions in their natal charts and are the two biggest countries of the world.

Neptune reminds us that we are not merely our ego, but something more transcendent.

Many writers and screenwriters have Mercury-Neptune aspects (or Mercury in Pisces) combined with Saturn, which allows them to give disciplined form to the Neptunian. Sun-Neptune aspects, on the other hand, dissolve the ego: the person may feel they do not fully recognize themselves or reality, existing in a state of “being and not being.”

Astrology, which many attribute to Uranus, in my opinion, is more governed by Neptune, since it is rooted both in mathematics and physics as well as in the unimaginable and intangible.

This is a small piece of art made by watercolors that I did a year ago in summer, probably August.

Beneath the trees and flowers, two swans are represented on this lake, completely in love and dancing with each other. There are two colours symbolized on this paper: purple and yellow. In fact you can see how the colours from the painting changes slightly from left to right. This is because purple and yellow are opposite - but also the complement from each other, like the swans need each other: like how the lovers are deeply needed by each other's warm and heart.
