Hello friends! I have been thinking about which archetype in the zodiac is linked with "Worry". Virgo seems to be the one that comes to mind, but lately I have also been thinking about Gemini, Capricorn and Scorpio as well. Can you guys share your thoughts and which archetype you to link to worry? Would you say there is one dominant archetype for it, or can you see this manifested in different archetypes. Thank you for your thoughts!

Hi everyone! I have not worked with parallels/contrparallels and was curious if there is an explanation or archetypal meaning for this from an evolutionary perspective. Any thoughts? Thank you!

Hello friends! I have been looking in the old forum to see if there is any material on this but didn't have any luck finding it When looking at synastry, what would be the archetypal meaning when two people's nodal axis square eachother? For example: Person 1 - Nodal Axis at 15 degree Scorpio/Taurus; Person 2: Nodal axis at 15 degree Leo/Aquarius And, should there be any additional things to look for/consider after when looking in the composite for such cases? Thank you all for your insights and answers!

Hello everyone! Considering that the archetypes in someone chart manifests differently depending on the evolutionary state, I was curious if anyone could share any experiences they have had in helping a dimly evolved soul (or a parent of dimly evolved soul). I work with alot of special needs children, and some of these souls are non-verbal for example. Does anyone have any experiences they can share? I'd really like to understand from an EA point of view how we can help such souls who cross our path giving us the honor to read their charts and how we can share information for their evolution. Thank you! Natasha

Hi everyone! Hope everyone is having an amazing week. I was curious if anyone had any experience, insights or thoughts on when the ruler of the South Node is conjunct Pluto. I know there are variations for when planets are conjunct the SN, and NN- but is there anything particularly different or special about having the ruler of the South Node conjunct Pluto? and, maybe any info on when the ruler of the NN is conjunct Pluto? Ex: Pluto conjunct Saturn in the 12th | SN: 2nd House/Capricorn I tried looking through the old forum but could not find anything ,so if anyone finds anything would you please mind sharing the link? Thanks guys!

Good morning! I have a weird question when looking at phases.  As an example, I’m looking at a crescent phase square between Mars 10th/Venus 1st.  JWG mention for this aspect: “The internalized compression within this phase produces an inner awareness of what the new individual structure or forms are that have become progressively refined through the preceding phases and aspects. These individual forms or structures reflect the initial evolutionary intention in the New Phase” Regarding the statement underlined above, assuming someone had Mars in the 10th Sag, and Venus in the 1st Pisces—do you actually go back and see when they were in conjunction prior to the square to know what the new phase intention actually was by house/sign/aspects? In a birth chart, this would have occurred prior to the birth of the soul in that specific incarnation – so I am trying to understand if the intention at the new phase came from previous lives, or exactly how to bring to light exactly what the new intention actually was.  Any feedback or help will be greatly appreciated.  Thank you guys, Natasha

Good afternoon friends, Would anyone have any material or information or the discovery chart on the asteroid Toro (1685)? I know it was discovered on July 17, 1948 in Mount Hamilton, CA (but I can not find the discovery time). I am doing a study on this asteroid, and would like to gather as much information on the archetype as possible (Discovery chart, etc...) Anything will be helpful Thank you all!

Hi everyone, I was trying to find the archetypal meaning for the transit event: Transiting South Node conjunct natal North Node, which would of course imply transiting North Node conjunct natal South Node. In the following thread I found, Rad commented: LINK: https://forum.schoolofevolutionaryastrology.com/index.php?topic=1354.0 "When the transiting N.Node conjuncts the natal S.Node this correlates to a time in which the Soul recreates old, existing, dynamics that are no longer needed for it's ongoing evolutionary journey to continue. In recreating those dynamics through inner and outer circumstances the Soul is intending to make new choices relative to those existing dynamics so that evolution can proceed. If those new choices are not made then the Soul begins to mark time relative to it's ongoing evolutionary journey relative to those existing dynamics that are sustained." I understand what is said about transiting N.Node conjunct natal S.Node-- but how will this play out or be experienced with simultaneously having the transiting South Node conjunct the natal North Node? If there are any other forum links, or thoughts to share, it will be very much appreciated. Thank you!

Hi everyone! I have been researching and studying the depths of the planetary nodes which adds so much rich information to the natal charts. I was curious if there was any information, rules or exceptions if the planetary node of one planet squares the natal moon's nodes in this life, or if anyone can share any links or info that has helped them. I am really interested in hearing your experience in working with the planetary nodes. They are so rich and insightful. Some questions that came to me: Would a Planetary Node squaring Natal Node be considered a skipped step? Ex: South Node of Venus in Aries Squaring Natal Nodes in Capricorn/Cancer Would a natal planet squaring the Planetary Nodes of another planet be considered a skipped step? Natal Venus Squaring the Planetary Nodes of Mercury

Hello! I was thinking about the semi-square (3rd quarter and balsamic), and wondering if in both of these aspects, the experience/frustration of wanting to withdraw from social interaction, but yet still having to fulfill their obligations is felt? I am trying to understand the difference in eneregies felt between these two semi-squares, and maybe some examples of how this would manifest. Any thoughts you all can share?

Dear friends, I hope this email finds you well.  I wanted to start this thread to gather some thoughts and see your thoughts, insights and experiences with the T-Square formation from an evolutionary point of view.  I have found and read this post that Rad posted back in 2021 with great information (see link below) https://forum.schoolofevolutionaryastrology.com/index.php/topic,1725.msg81505.html#msg81505 From my understanding T Squares relate to creative stress relative to behavioral development and this is linked to the phases the aspects within the T-Square are in, and for synthesizing purposes we would look at: • Opposition (Gibbous vs Full) • Square (Crescent, 1st Quarter, Disseminating, Last Quarter) • And we would also look to the modality of the signs, as well as the natural house modality for more details on the archetypal description Do any of you have any other details on the archetypal meaning of the T-Square in general, what the function of each of the planets would be.  I started wondering if the planet which is squared by the opposition is similar in resistance patterns that a skipped step squared the nodal axis would be – since a skipped step is technically a T-Square with the nodes. Just looking for some additional insights, thoughts, and experiences with it if possible that can be shared! (Also if you know of any other links in the forum that speak to this, please kindly share here as well if you can!)   Thank you all so much! Natasha

Hi friends, Just re-confirming the maximum orbs for Skipped Steps, as from what I learned and read it to be 10 degrees; but in one of our classes, I understood it to be 10 degrees separating or applying (instead of 5 to each side). Example 1 Nodes in Libra/Aries 2 degrees Jupiter 11 degrees Cancer Example 2 Nodes in Pisces/Virgo - 8 degrees Neptune in 17 degrees Sagitarrius Would Jupiter and Neptune in these examples be considered skipped steps? Thank you all!

Hello friends! I wanted to ask a question about Jupiter/Mercury phase in relation to what JWG taught in the course to make sure I am understanding correctly. From the new phase conjunction up until the opposition, Mercury is separating from Jupiter & from the opposition to the balsamic conjunction, Mercury is applying to Jupiter. Do we assume that as Mercury is separating from Jupiter, the person is more inclined to a "left brain/logical" nature, and when Mercury is applying to Jupiter, they are more inclined to a "right brain/intuitive" nature? I just want to make sure I understand it correctly. I think looking at the whole chart would be the obvious way to come to that conclusion (i.e. If the person has a new phase Jup/Mer but if the person has a 9th house Pluto, a highly asected Jupiter, or alot of planets in the 9th or in Sag-- maybe that can sway the person to be more right brain/intuitive in nature)-- But want to make sure in general, that the above would be the correct way to interpret that Jupiter/Mercury pair in relation to right vs left brain functions Thank you for the thoughts and confirmation!

Good morning friends! This question is for my experienced evolutionary astrologers whom I am sure have done many many readings to clients using the EA paradigm. I came across a man who was interested in having his chart read, however, he does not believe in reincarnation/past lives. How do you approach a reading when someone is not open to reincarnation, but open to having their chart read? Looking forward to your responses and insight. Thank you all

Hi everyone, Is there any material on the main asteroids (Ceres, Pallas, Juno, Vesta & Chiron) and their significance in the EA paradigm? I am sorry if there is a thread on this, for some reason, I do not have a search bar on my screen for me to type and search my related questions. Thank you all!

Hi everyone,   I hope you are all great! I had a question I’ve been pondering about, and maybe someone can help clarify or share your thoughts.   In specific relating to a Pluto/Planet conjunction.   I understand the dynamics if a planet is conjunct the south node; or if the south node is conjunct pluto itself --- but I am curious if there is any special archetypal meaning to have a planet conjunct Pluto(whether its balsamic or new) – with Pluto representing the soul, its prior life lessons and where it has left off.   What is the main difference in synthesizing for example: Pluto conjunct Saturn versus Saturn conjunct the South Node   Looking forward to hearing back, With gratitude & love, Natasha

Example: South Node in the 6th Pisces / North Node in the 12th Virgo (Neptune & Mercury being both planetary rulers)   In this case, the planetary ruler of the South Node by sign is Neptune; and by house is Mercury; and the planetary ruler of the Node Node by sign is Mercury, and by house is Neptune.   Since the planetary rulers of both nodes are the same in this case, is there are information on how they both facilitate in this case or how they work together? For ex: Do you give more weight to the planetary ruler by “sign” versus by “house”   Thank you for your input and help!

Good afternoon friends, I have a question pertaining to Synastry & Skipped Steps If person on outer wheel(we will call them Chart B) has their nodes squaring the inner wheel person's planets (we will call them Chart A) would it be correct to assume the person who has skipped the steps(has been flip/flopping) is the person on the outer wheel (Person who has the nodes squaring the other persons planet)? In the reverse, person from Chart A has planets that square person from Chart B nodal axis Is there any material on this, and how to further understand this dynamic? I guess what I am trying to understand, is, would the skipped steps be attributed to one person only, and if so, whom? (I understand that in the composite chart, this is interpreted as a unit). Person who has nodes squaring the person's planet VS. Person who has planet squaring the nodes of the other person Let me know if my question seems confusing and I will try to reword. Thank you! Natasha

Hello my friends! I had a few questions pertaining to Lunar Returns from an EA perspective 1. If for example, the lunar return back to natal position lands on April 15th of a given year - would Apr 15th, through the date where is returns back be considered the "month" in question? Rather than just assuming it is based on April only? 2. Since the moon is the lead planet in this analysis, would we still use the Pluto Paradigm in interpreting the chart for that given month? (Pluto by house/sign; Nodes by house/sign; planetary rulers by house/sign)? 3. Any other insight that can be shared on Lunar Returns from EA perspective would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
