Meanings Behind The Planets’ Glyphs

Sign gyphs are made of abstract symbols to represent desires. Planetary symbols are made of three items: the circle of spirit, the half circle of soul (or feeling), and the cross of matter.

☉ Sun Symbol: The circle of spirit representing the spiritual mind. The dot in the center of the Sun may be thought of as the focal point of spiritual awareness or expression. Where the Sun is in the horoscope you seek to shine, be recognized and express power.

☽ Moon Symbol: Two half circles of ‘soul’ representing feeling response leading to nurture of others. Memory of events, thinking based on feeling or memory, imagination -the making of images based on memory. Where the Moon is you are emotionally stimulated, feel in contact with your family and the public, find a key to what you remember best.

☿ Mercury Symbol: The circle of spirit suspended between the cross of the 5 senses and the soul of memory or receptivity to higher ideas coming from spiritual mind. Where Mercury is you focus the mind most easily and have both the keenest observation [this impressing the memory] and best communication.

♀ Venus Symbol: Circle of spirit above the cross of matter, a refined appreciation of matter, that is harmony, beauty and worth. Where Venus is you find a sense of values as well as valuables.

♂ Mars Symbol: The cross of matter above the circle of spirit. The cross is drawn leaning over and sharpened showing the effect of past evolution upon our self awareness and willingness to live by tempering our selfish desires. The small self (personality) or matter exalted over the individuality or principle. Where Mars is you fight or at least assert yourself most strongly, this is where you like to begin things.

♃ Jupiter Symbol: The half circle of soul above the cross of matter showing ‘higher thought’ including abstract thinking, faith and optimism. The perception of principle. Jupiter is where we recognize and find opportunity, where our mind and feelings are expanded, where spiritual impulse is fulfilled.

♄ Saturn Symbol: Cross of matter above the half circle of soul, where material life dominates feeling. Necessity and need to fulfill are Saturn experiences. Where Saturn is we find our greatest challenge (typically) and recognition of our self worth in terms of how we relate to others.

♅ Uranus Symbol: Two half circles of soul crossing the limbs of the cross of matter which is placed above the circle of spirit. Here the 'radar’ screens are turned to both the past and future, the etheric and mental impressions by raising the vibrational level of the human body. Uranus is magnetic, freedom loving, lightening like intuitions. Where Uranus is we expect freedom and will accept nothing less than originality and freedom at least in the long run.

♆ Neptune Symbol: The half circle of soul turned upward to higher dimensions and crossing the upper staff of the cross indicating that the vibrational level of the human body is again raised by Neptune. Neptune as a planet is said to be from 'out of our solar system’ and it symbolizes information that comes from without of our soul system through information as might come by clairvoyance, idealism or prophetic dreams. Where Neptune is we are at our most sensitive and inspirational as well as where we are most likely to be deceived by self or others.

♇ Pluto Symbol: The three components, circle of spirit, half circle of soul and the cross of matter are again present as they are in Mercury but arranged differently. Mercury is the messenger of the Gods, that is the intermediate senses which carry information from the senses to the spirit within. Pluto shows the spirit within the soul above the cross of matter indicating the perfected 'mankind’ which results from regeneration. Pluto marks the spot where spirit goes into limitation, the underworld, in order to be released into full power and growth. Pluto marks the spot where we are forced to release a spiritual power or understanding.

A little astrology lesson in Essential dignity by Sleepy.

Planets in Exaltation, Detriment and Fall (x) Note: There are other versions of this chart found on the internet that differ but this is the one based on the table most commonly referred to officially stated on Wikipedia (x)

Brief summary by me:

Ruler We all know our sun sign’s ruling planet don’t we? It shows us where our sign derives it’s core elements from which play a large and positive role in the sign, it is our signs homes, the place where they feel most comfortable and comes most naturally to them.   Exalted If your sign is exalted in another planet this means you are also supported by the positives of this planet. It does not rule your sign however acts as a positive aid. Kind of like visiting your best friend house, it’s not your home but you sure as heck love it there.

Detriment This is the planet your sign feels awkward in. The influences of the planet do not come easily to your sign and often you struggle in that area. It is the ruling planet of your opposite sign and is foreign and strange to you. Often you are found conforming to the rules of the planet rather than it aiding you.

Fall If you have a fall in a planet, this is the worst planet for your sign. It can be extremely troublesome, you may feel out of your depth with the elements found in that planet. It’s like someone thrusting you into a CEO job and you’ve had no training. It is where your opposite sign exalts in.
