Why study astrology?

A symbolic language

Even more than an art, astrology is a language. It gives symbolic keys to discern and express nuances in people's psyche. Astrology can be extraordinarily revealing when it comes to understanding yourself and others. In the light of an astrological chart, many attitudes and motivating forces in people suddenly take on a completely different dimension – the astrological interpretation brings meaning.

Self discovery

As a symbolic language, astrology is a powerful tool for self discovery. An essential part of the astrological endeavour is the study of one's own chart, in about every single possible modality, drawing type etc. Each way of drawing the astrological chart is like another mirror, an opportunity to reflect upon a particular facet of oneself.
Having conducted this study of yourself, it is more than likely that the views you hold about your essential nature will change, and that a new light will be shed on the reasons for a number of past choices and actions. New facets of yourself will be revealed, as well as powerful keys for self-transformation work.

A study of symbolism

Astrology is perhaps the most comprehensive established system of symbolic thought. As such, it is a royal way into the study of symbolism, which can then be applied to all fields of life, from plants to dreams via medicine and its alchemical developments.

Astrology in the western esoteric tradition

Astrology is an essential component of the western esoteric tradition. As such, it is an important part of an esoteric training of a certain caliber. Numerous thinkers, writers, esotericists and mystics of the western world have made reference to it in their teachings. This mean that without some astrological background, their writings can not be fully understood. Dante's Paradiso for instance, the part of the Divine Comedy in which Dante deals with the angelic hierarchies and the ladder of the spiritual worlds, is essentially a journey through the planetary spheres. It is replete with astrological symbolism. Whilst traveling through the sphere of the fixed stars and seeing the sign of Gemini, Dante, who was born under that sign, even attributes all of his genius to it:

One should avoid in Marriage Chart


We regard a marriage as being tragic if at least one of the spouses dies a tragic and untimely death while they were married. An example of such a marriage would be that of John Kennedy, Jr. and Carolyn Bassette.

We regard a marriage as being a heartbreak if the spouses divorce and at least one of them suffers a gut-wrenching heartbreak. An example of a heartbreak marriage would be that of Princess Diana and Prince Charles. Although Diana died in a tragic and untimely manner, she was not married at the time so we would regard her marriage as a heartbreaking one, and her life as a tragic one.

The Magi Society's research has uncovered the astrological signs of tragic and heartbreak marriages; we have learned that the astrological warnings of a tragic marriage are different from those of a heartbreak marriage. On this website, we will be teaching the astrology of both of these types of marriages.

We will begin by teaching the astrology of tragic marriages because they are the worst kind - the reason is that when someone dies in a marriage, that person does not have another chance at happiness.

THE ASTROLOGY OF TRAGIC MARRIAGES

After completing research on over 60 thousand marriages, we have found that virtually all tragic marriages have a very similar type of Planetary Geometry, which we call HAZARDOUS PLANETARY GEOMETRY.

The PLANETARY GEOMETRY of a chart is any line (or lines), shape, or pattern that is formed when connecting lines are drawn between the planets that are in "meaningful" alignment at the time of the chart.

Hazardous Planetary Geometry is Planetary Geometry where there is a "dominance of Turbulent Angles made by Saturn."

IN A MARRIAGE CHART, TURBULENT ANGLES BY SATURN CAN CREATE HAZARDOUS PLANETARY GEOMETRY.

For thousands of years, and ever since the very birth of astrology, astrologers realized that Saturn was different from any of the other planets primarily because Saturn was associated with problems. For this reason, astrologers viewed Saturn as a MALEFIC.

Then beginning about 1925 and for the next 75 years or so, many astrologers tried to rewrite astrology by pretending that Saturn was not a malefic. Such astrologers are referred to as Saturn Revisionists.

The Saturn Revisionists tell us and try to convince us that transits made by Saturn are good because they think Saturn is the "teacher." They also claim that Saturn aspects are good and we should try to include them when selecting a day to do something important, like getting married.

The Saturn Revisionists are completely wrong about this.

In our third book, we explained that all aspects in the birth chart of a human being are gifts of special talents from God. This includes Saturn aspects.

BUT SATURN IS A PROBLEM EVERYWHERE ELSE.

For example, transits by Saturn are all bad, even the ones made at 120 degrees and zero degrees.

And all Saturn aspects that occur in a Marriage Chart are signs of problems.

Since there are so many angles and planets for Saturn to make an aspect, there is almost always a Saturn Aspect on any given day. But some Saturn Aspects are much worse than others for a marriage.

In a Marriage Chart, the worst Saturn Aspects are ones that Saturn makes to Chiron and the Sun. This is because in a Marriage Chart, the Sun represents the actual marriage itself, and because Chiron rules marriages.

If a marriage takes place on a day when Saturn makes a Turbulent Angle to both the Sun and Chiron, Saturn creates HAZARDOUS PLANETARY GEOMETRY and the marriage can be very troublesome.

Three ingredients necessary for a happy and long-live marriage


As a result of the research we recently concluded by analyzing the astrology of 60 thousand marriages, we discovered three astrological conditions that are highly beneficial to a marriage. A Magical Marriage can be attained only if all three of the astrological conditions exist in the marriage. Here are the three necessary astrological ingredients for a Magical Marriage:

1. Mutual True Love

2. Marrying during an Ideal Astrological Day

3. Marrying when both spouses are having Cinderella Transits





Because of our recent discoveries in the astrology of love and marriages, it is now finally possible to use astrology to help us attain all three.



Below are details about all three of these Magical ingredients.





THE FIRST INGREDIENT NECESSARY FOR A MAGICAL MARRIAGE IS

MUTUAL TRUE LOVE



Anyone who has an iota of wisdom knows that MUTUAL TRUE LOVE is the most important ingredient for a Magical Marriage. But the problem is that most of us are FOOLED into thinking mutual love exists even when it does not. We probably all have had the experience of thinking we were in love and that we were also loved in return, only to end up finding out we were wrong. It used to be that astrology could not help us know if mutual love could develop between two persons. But Magi Astrology can help us know this. After concluding a study of over 50 thousand love unions in 1998, the Magi Society discovered exactly what are the most reliable astrological indicators of mutual true love. Magi Astrology also can tell us the most likely outcome of any relationship. By learning and using Magi Astrology, you can finally answer questions such as:

# What is the most likely outcome of this relationship?

# Will you marry this person or someone else?

# If the two of you marry, will the marriage be lifelong and happy? Or would it result in heartbreak?

Unless a man and woman form CINDERELLA LINKAGES, it is highly unlikely that they can be in love with each other. A Cinderella Linkage is an interaspect formed between one person's Chiron and another person's Venus, Jupiter, Neptune or Pluto (and to a lesser degree the Sun), where the interaspect is a conjunction, trine, quincunx, parallel or contra-parallel.

THE SECOND INGREDIENT NECESSARY FOR A MAGICAL MARRIAGE IS

TO MARRY DURING AN IDEAL ASTROLOGICAL DAY



As a result of our research into the astrology of 60 thousand marriages, we made the following two fascinating and extraordinarily helpful discoveries:





Discovery One:



Even if two persons are very much in love at the time when they marry, if the couple is unfortunate enough to marry on a TURBULENT ASTROLOGICAL DAY, their love for each other will most likely fade and the marriage will most likely fail.



A Turbulent Astrological Day is a day when there is an overwhelming amount of Turbulent Angles made by the planets, especially Saturn. When this website is fairly complete by the end of 2002, it will provide you with many examples of marriages that took place during Turbulent Astrological Days so you will learn exactly what a Turbulent Astrological Day is.



Women's magazines give a lot of advice about marriages and the causes of divorce. But the advice we get from women's magazines about why marriages end in divorce is incomplete. Most magazines tell us that the majority of divorces are a result of infidelity, or a lack of financial security, or the fact the couple drifted apart and became very different from the way they were when they were wed, or because there is no longer mutual love. But those magazines do not deal with the WHY.



Ultimately, the above "reasons" are really only SYMPTOMS of the fact the couple married during a Turbulent Astrological Time. We believe that the biggest REASON for failed marriages is that couples get married on the wrong day. Turbulent Astrological Days are bad days to get married. When a couple marries, the act of marrying creates their Marriage Chart, which is the astrological chart of the time they marry. If a couple marries on a bad astrological day, it creates a bad Marriage Chart and the chances of an ultimate divorce are high. So high that the chances of divorce are intolerably high.



We believe the very act of MARRYING DURING A TURBULENT ASTROLOGICAL DAY ACTUALLY CREATES PROBLEMS IN THE MARRIAGE.



But here is the good news: If we marry on a good astrological day, our marriage will be good no matter how bad the odds are against us. This is our second discovery.





Discovery Two:



The power and importance of the Marriage Chart is so great and so Magical that even if two persons seem to have everything stacked against them, if they marry on an astrologically Magical day, their marriage can be Magical.



There are countless examples of this.



We have all heard of "rags-to-riches" stories and many of us dream of being so lucky. But guess what? It was not luck at all but the Magical stars. If you trace true life Cinderella stories step by step, most "rags-to-riches" stories are really about two average souls who were blessed enough to have fallen in love and gotten married on a Magical Astrological Day and AFTERWARDS against all odds became successful.



Everyone agrees about the importance of choosing the right person to marry. But believe it or not, it is just as important that we also choose the best time to marry.



Because love is the way it is, we cannot always choose whom we love and marry; our hearts sometimes just give us no choice. This fact makes it even more important that we do choose what we have the ability to choose, which is the best time to marry.



If we make the right choice, and marry on the right day, we have a wonderful chance of having a Magical Marriage.



You are probably asking, "How do we know what astrological conditions are the right ones for us to marry?" The answer is that it is the Planetary Geometry of the wedding day that is the key to a Magical Marriage. If we marry on a day that has Magical Planetary Geometry, our marriage will be Magical. By the time we complete this website by the end of 2002, we will provide you with dozens of examples of marriages that occurred during Magical Planetary Geometry. This way, you would know how to recognize it when it occurs for you and marry during your ideal astrological time.



ASTROLOGY IS A BENEVOLENT DESIGN OF A BENEVOLENT PROVIDENCE



The Magi Society believes that a Benevolent Providence designed astrology and He loves all of us. We believe God is romantic beyond what is humanly possible and smiles on true love. Because Providence loves us so much, He would like to give all of us who are in love the best wedding gift of all - that of a Magical Marriage. Because God loves us and wants us all to be happily married, He gave all of us the ability to have a Magical Marriage by designing astrology so that we can use it to help our marriage to be Magical.



Through the Benevolent Design of astrology, God has made a Magical Marriage within our reach. What we need to do is study the language of the stars and learn how to choose a Magical Day to marry the person we love. We created this website so you can learn how to harness the power of the stars God gave us to help you fulfill your dreams.



We all know someone who has had the following type of experience:

The person we know was in love and the love appeared to be mutual. The couple decides to make a lifelong romantic commitment to each other by getting married and they actually decide on a date to marry. But nothing works for the date they had chosen - the caterers or banquet halls they want are all booked on their chosen date. One or more of their parents cannot attend on the date they had chosen. To top it off, they cannot even hire a decent wedding photographer on that date. The result is that the couple decides to change the date of their marriage. The bride had always dreamed of a big wedding so they ended up planning their wedding around the schedule of the caterer, the photographer, and their parents.

Guess what? They should have married on the date they originally chose. That day was much better astrologically for them and the day of the Big Wedding was not so good.

Far too often, a wedding date is set for the wrong reasons like the ones above.

What they should have done was to hold a simple matrimonial ceremony on a date chosen by using Magi Astrology, and then redo their vows in a Big Wedding ceremony with the parents, the banquet, etc. You see, their Marriage Chart is the chart of the FIRST time they exchanged vows, and not the second time.

The only criteria for a wedding date should be that the day must be an ideal astrological day to marry. We already learned we should only marry someone we love and we should do so only on a day that has Magical Planetary Geometry. But those are only two of the ingredients needed to have a Magical Marriage. There is a third.

The third ingredient for a Magical Marriage is to be married on a day when both the man and woman are having a Cinderella Transit. In order to have a Magical Marriage, you and your spouse must both be having Cinderella Transits when you marry.

There are two types of ways for a Cinderella Transit to occur:

First: A Cinderella Transit occurs whenever transiting Venus, Jupiter, Neptune or Pluto (and to a lesser degree the Sun) is making a Magical Angle to the natal Chiron.

Second: A Cinderella Transit occurs whenever transiting Chiron makes a Magical Angle to natal Sun, Venus, Jupiter, Neptune or Pluto.

If you marry during one of your Cinderella Transits, it means that you form a Cinderella Linkage to your Marriage Chart. This also means you have a Golden Linkage to your Marriage Chart because every Cinderella Linkage is a Golden Linkage. Therefore, by marrying during your Cinderella Time, your marriage will help you to become successful (which is a likely result of the Golden Linkage) and you will be attached and committed to the marriage (the likely result of the Cinderella Linkage).

The more Cinderella Transits you have when you marry, the more magic there will be in your marriage. But you and your spouse must BOTH be having Cinderella Transits when you marry, otherwise it will not work nearly as well because the marriage would not be Magical for both of you.

Choosing a Wedding Day


Astrological wisdom holds that the beginning of something, whether a human life or a marriage, is a crucial moment which contains within it the seeds of what is to come. It pays to know in advance whether there will be a “hallelujah chorus” or a trainwreck in the sky (or something in-between) on the day of your celebration. As above, so below. While astrology cannot guarantee the newly married couple will see their golden anniversary, having a good astrological date is excellent insurance that the caterer shows up, the flowers are perfect, and everything goes as planned.

This good wedding day then becomes the marriage chart for the newlyweds— they are off to a good start.

The same principles apply to all commitment ceremonies, legally recognized or not, gay or straight. The planets do not discriminate.
The basics

1. The first thing I do is check the synastry between the two charts for an astrological “glue” that holds the relationship together. I also look for any potential trouble spots. I will be looking for a date that supports the “glue,” and does not irritate the trouble spots.
2. I am looking for an easygoing day. I want a chart that, if it were a person, would be a kind, gentle, well-adjusted person who would get along well with both members of the couple.
3. We all know that there are days when everyone seems to be in an easy mood (kiss), and there are days when folks are more tightly wound (quack). As above, so below— these “kisses and quacks1“ show up in the heavens, and we can look ahead to see what the planets will be doing on a potential wedding day.
4. We have individual kiss and quack days as well. As the planets move around the skies, they “zing” areas that are sensitive just for you— shown by your birth chart. Some of these transits are easy, and others are difficult. Look for easy, peaceful transits, and avoid harsh ones for both partners.
5. Planets in angular houses are the most powerful planets in the chart. Pick a time for your ceremony when the benefics, Venus and Jupiter, are angular and well aspected in the wedding chart.

Good

* Waxing Moon trine or sextile Sun, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, or Neptune. Moon conjunct Sun, Venus, Jupiter, Neptune.
* Venus is strongest in the signs of her rulership and exaltation: Taurus, Libra, Cancer and Pisces.
* One of the easiest ways to strengthen the chart is to pick a time when Venus or Jupiter is close to the Ascendant, Midheaven or 7th house cusp of the chart. The Midheaven is especially important.
* Venus (love) trine or sextile Saturn (stability, endurance and tradition). Other planets in easy aspect to Saturn are also good. Sun, Moon, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter.
* Venus, Sun, Moon, Mercury, or Saturn trine, sextile, conjunct, or opposite Jupiter is lucky, optimistic and bounces back from trouble easily. Mars with Jupiter is especially lucky.
* Venus conjunct, trine, sextile or opposite Mars supports a healthy sex life.
* Venus, Sun, Moon, Mercury, Jupiter, or Saturn in easy aspect to Neptune supports compassion and spiritual growth.

Avoid

* Venus retrograde
* Waning or void of course Moon
* Venus conjunct, square or opposite Saturn. Saturn stabilizes but can be like a wet blanket on Venus. It may work if there are other planets in supportive aspects (trine, sextile) to the conjunction or opposition. You definitely don’t want anything else squaring it.
* Moon conjunct or square Mars, Saturn, or Pluto.
* Venus in the signs of her detriment and fall: Scorpio, Aries, Capricorn and Virgo. These signs may work if Venus is very well aspected, strongly placed, and in harmony with both natal charts.
* Mars under stress (squares, oppositions, some conjunctions) is passionate and sexual, but can also indicate fighting and arguments.
* Saturn, Uranus, or Mars in an angular house (unless Mars is conjunct Venus).

Finer points

* Having the rulers of the 1st and 7th houses in a favorable aspect is good.
* If you can’t put Venus or Jupiter on an angle, see if you can put the Venus/Jupiter midpoint there.

Unfortunately, we can’t arrange the planets to our liking. We have to work with the planets and what they are doing, and there is no perfect chart. A few klunkers are unavoidable. In fact, a chart without klunkers tends to be weak and lacks focus. Imagine how boring life would be if there were only sweet, and no bitter.

But you don’t want the klunkers driving the bus in your marriage chart. Let’s say in your chart the Moon trines Venus— good! But she squares Uranus— hmmm… The thing to do here is look for a time when Venus is in an angular house and Uranus is not. Remember, the angular houses are much more powerful. Planets in angular houses “have the microphone” in the chart. In a harmonious wedding chart, the happier planets hold the mike. In a discordant chart, planets under stress hold the mike.
