A series of critical planetary aspects from May 7 to 16 are staging for both the Solar Eclipse and the start of the Venus retrograde cycle on May 15. With Jupiter, sun, and Sedna in close alignment between May 11 and 13, there’s a precious lot at stake. (Consider them on the bounty hunt.) Whatever has been held in a captive or frozen state is about to breathe a new life. Venus in retrograde will materialize the unfinished and/or ripe and ready from our karmic storyboard. This potent cycle and the rare Venus/sun alignment of June 5/6 will bring each and every one of us to a destiny-writing chapter of major significance. As stated above, this karmic storyboard is already in development. The plot is about to thicken. Across time and space, and regarding our current stage of evolution, we are developing a multi-dimensional, past, present, and future, holographic platform. The reverberation of the rare alignment of June 5/6 is one of creative transformation pulsing through creation. The Mayan Calendar may end on the winter solstice of 2012, but this rare Venus alignment marks the transition of a new age of Man. This is a key and critical time for the evolution of our physical reality, our conceptual framework, and our soul growth too. It is a profound moment for humanity.

Evolutionary Astrology studies the past lifetime dynamics that have brought the individual to present circumstances and level of personal development. By understanding the past and how far one has come, one can learn how to best facilitate the soul’s intended growth for the current life.

PRINCIPLES OF EVOLUTIONARY ASTROLOGY

1. An acceptance of the fact that human beings incarnate in a succession of lifetimes
2. An acceptance of the fact that the birth chart reflects the evolutionary condition of the soul at the moment of incarnation
3. An acceptance of the fact that the birth chart reflects the evolutionary condition of the soul for the present life
4. An acceptance of the fact that the circumstances of the present life, both materially and psychologically, do not arise randomly, but rather reflect the evolutionary intentions and necessities of the soul.
5. An acceptance of the fact that human beings interact creatively and unpredictably with their birth charts, that all astrological symbols are multidimensional and are modulated into material and psychic expression by the consciousness of the individual.
6. An acceptance of the fact that human beings are responsible for the realities they experience, both internally and externally.
7. A respectful intention to accept and support a person seeking astrological help, no matter the evolutionary state in which such an individual finds himself, or herself.
