In Handbook for a Humanistic Astrologer , michael Meyer says that Saturn is the ego.
I thought the moon/cancer/4th was the ego?
Could I ask for a clarification on this from EA perspective?
I’ll quote what he says specifically:
“ the dyad of identification and adaptation is the symbolic molding force behind the establishment (moon ) of the ego (Saturn) and its gradual development (moon) into a distinct individual (Saturn)”.
Hi Dominikas,
Since the quote you are bringing forward is not an EA source, it's not necessary or helpful to compare it with the EA teachings. There will be many discrepancies between EA and others systems and this forum isn't the place for working those discrepancies out. What you do on your own is of course fine, but on this forum please keep it to EA.
If you wish to delve into this more deeply from an EA point of view, I suggest reviewing some of JWG's teachings on Saturn and the Moon on the archived message board. Then, if you have a need for further clarification, please be welcome to ask more questions on this topic.
Thanks Ari
Sorry about that
I was referred to that book on this forum for more foundational knowledge of astrology as I don’t have an astrology background.
I will check out the link for sure thank you
I understand, that can get confusing.
Let me know if you'd like some suggestions for beginners resources on EA for those who are new to astrology in general. Happy to share. You can reach out to me directly or even post a new thread if you'd like.
You know as a Leo moon the ego makes a lot of sense 😁
