Astrology as Path to Higher Consciousness

Astrology as Path to Higher Consciousness considers the Sun Signs from the esoteric angle. Each Sign of the Zodiac is a different energy that is designed to lead one on and up in a specific way. In order to unfold one's higher spiritual possibilites, it behooves one to work consciously and intelligently with these energies. Special opportunities are presented by the essence of each sign. One can be a puppet on conditioning strings, or one can find the conscious path and explore the great Mystery of Type and Level. Science tells us that all is energy, while at the same time the qualitative energies of consciousness are too elusive for the instruments of the physical sciences. These energies, however, are not too elusive for the soul-sensitive mind. According to A. Bailey, Esoteric Astrology concerns itself primarily with the unfoldment of consciousness, with the impacts that awaken it to the peculiar gifts of any particular sign and ray endowment and with the reaction of man and his consequent enrichment through his response to the influence of a sign. (A. Bailey) Many archetypal myths and esoteric traditions are used to explore the energy contribution of each of the signs.
