🧬🌀harmonic charts for beginners🌀🧬

* note: i am a beginner with using harmonics myself! this is, i would say, a rather advanced concept. there’s still a lot i don’t know, and i’m mostly making this post to write out my own understanding of it so far. i just want to add to the conversation because there’s not a lot out there in western astro about harmonics! ** 2nd note: i’m applying the principles of this vedic astro practice to western tropical astrology, so some things i’m saying may differ from other sources! this is my understanding so far at the very beginning of using this technique :)

this is a method that’s been used in vedic astrology for a very long time. i’m pretty sure vedic astrologers have been practicing harmonic astrology for about as long as they’ve studied astrology itself! i could be getting my timeline confused, but either way it is a practice with a lot of history behind it and super pertinent information to studying your astrological life map ⭐️

the most important thing to know about the harmonic charts, is that they are based entirely on minor aspects. the whole point of a harmonic chart is essentially a “zoom” function on the natal chart.

the number harmonic is how much you zoom into your chart. it’s going to change the sign of your planets because the real focus is on the aspects. you can also read for signs, and i will explain that more in-depth in a later post, but for now i want to emphasize the aspects because that’s essentially the whole point of making a harmonic chart.

we have aspects right? sextile, square, trine, opposition. these are pretty basic divisions of a circle based on the 12 zodiac signs. however, there are also smaller, “minor aspects” that can be interpreted alongside our birthchart. when we use the harmonic chart, it stretches those small aspects out, it exposes them so that we can see them as if they are major aspects.

the last important thing i have to share about interpretation, is that some aspects are so strong in our birth charts that they continue to show in our different harmonic charts. pay extra attention to those aspects that appear in more than one, because this is the energy which is really helping to drive you. also, i don’t practice with houses because the house calculations are really confusing. but give it a shot if you want to!

and boom! just interpret them like you would your own natal chart. this is a new context for your birthchart! each number harmonic represents a different energy of your life and how that energy manifests.

the main harmonics i’ve been focusing on are the 5th, the 7th, and the 9th, so let me break those down for you all, and then i’ll be on my way ☺️

🦋5th harmonic chart: this is the chart of play. similar to the 5th house of the natal chart, but not fully analogous, this chart shows your relationship to your inner child. this chart will give you an idea of how you function as a creative individual.

☄️7th harmonic chart: this is the chart of enlightenment. the house analogy doesn’t really follow to the 7th harmonic chart, but this chart has a connection to jupiter. it is about expansive knowledge and the chart reflects our attitudes towards learning and opening our minds to a wealth of different ideas.

🎀9th harmonic chart: from what i’ve researched so far, this is a very important chart for compatibility in vedic astrology! my understanding of a general interpretation for this chart is that it shows our relationship to luck, and to good fortune. this also seems to be a chart which can represent our higher intuition and our higher self. the aspects of this chart reveal how we use our intuition in order to bring us closer to our best lives and our highest good.

so there you go! sorry for the long post, but i hope you like it! if there is an interest i can post how i find my harmonic charts on astro.com in the future 🥰

Predicting Future Trends for 2017 with Vibrational Astrology by David Cochrane

Published on Jan 26, 2017

The orbits of Neptune an Pluto are in orbital resonance with each other. In astrological terms we can think of Saturn as the outermost planet of our physical levels and Saturn sets the boundary conditions of our lives. Neptune is the outermost planet of our souls and psyches and reveals our wishes, dreams, and hopes. Minor aspects between Neptune and Pluto are not minor in importance. They indicate how the collective hopes and dreams are changing. Neptune and Pluto have changed from 7th and 14th harmonic aspects to 13th harmonic aspects during 3 critical periods in the 20th century: World War I, World War II, and the war against terrorism that began in 2001. Neptune and Pluto were in 11th harmonic aspect during wild times in our history such as from 1963 to 1971 which is now referred to as "the 60's". Using this astrological model, I predicted that Donald Trump would win the nomination for President of the USA and that the Democratic party was not adapting to these changes in the collective mood adequately enough, and this negatively affects their ability to be in a strong leadership position. In this video we learn practical tips on how to navigate our way in the coming years and what people, regardless of their political opinions, can do to be more constructive, productive, and successful in 2017 and the coming years.

I agree with this video for the most part but one thing I differ with.  Cochran says the Democratic Party is 9th harmonic PL/NP, which was true of the Democrats until the Corporatists takeover and reorganization of the Party in the 1980s. Today's Democrats are the child of the Regan era, greedy and devoted to Wall Street money and the top 1% wealthiest.  The current owners of the Democratic Party are contemptuous of those who would hold the Party to it’s traditional 9th harmonic role.  As Jimmy Dore says,”They’d rather lose to a Republican than let a progressive Democrat win.”  Today’s Democratic Party is hopeless and must fall apart and reorganize under a 9th or 11 harmonic PL/NP.  In the meantime the only hope for the populist left, those who believe government should be on the side of “the least among us” is to organize a new progressive third party.  Other than that slight oversight, Cochran is right and this video is worth the time on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon.  So if you don’t have time now to watch, I urge you to draft it and watch it later.
