Okay, so, let’s dive into this whole “Masonic Astrology” thing. I’ve been messing around with this stuff for a while now, and I gotta say, it’s pretty wild. Started out just being curious, you know? Heard a few things here and there about how Freemasonry and astrology are connected, and it piqued my interest. So, I started digging.
First thing I did was hit up some old books and articles. Not the easiest thing, since a lot of it is kinda vague or super symbolic. But I managed to piece together some basics. Like, did you know Freemasonry is packed with references to stars and planets and all that celestial jazz? Yeah, it’s not just about handshakes and secret meetings, there’s way more going on.
Then I got into the nitty-gritty. Started studying the movements of celestial bodies. I even began looking into astrological charts, trying to see if there was anything there that lined up with what I was learning about Freemasonry. It was tough, I won’t lie. Lots of late nights, staring at charts and trying to make sense of it all.
And you know what? I actually started to see some connections. It wasn’t like a big “aha!” moment, but more like a slow realization that these two things, Freemasonry and astrology, they might actually be related. Like, they both talk about rebirth and cycles of time, and there are these ideas about cause and effect that show up in both.
The next step for me was to really dive into the symbolism. I’ve been focusing on things like the Four Fixed Signs of the Zodiac and the Royal Arch Veils. Sounds fancy, right? It’s actually really cool once you start to understand what they represent. It’s all about layers of meaning, you know? Like, you peel back one layer, and there’s another one underneath.
I started using this stuff in my daily life. You would not believe how much it helps with self-improvement. It’s like, by understanding these cosmic patterns, I started to understand myself better. I began seeing my strengths and weaknesses in a new light, and I even started making changes in my life based on what I was learning. Also, I learned more about the Hermetic and Cosmic Laws, it’s really useful.
Here’s what I focused on:
- Reading: I hit the books, hard. Anything I could find on Masonic symbolism and astrology.
- Charting: I got into charting the stars and planets. Not just looking at them, but really studying their movements.
- Reflecting: I spent a lot of time just thinking about what I was learning. Trying to connect the dots.
- Applying: I tried to use what I was learning in my everyday life. Like, making decisions based on what I understood about cosmic cycles.
It’s been a journey, and I’m still learning. But I can honestly say that this whole Masonic Astrology thing, it’s not just some woo-woo stuff. There’s something to it. It’s about understanding the universe and our place in it. And for me, it’s been a way to understand myself better and become a better person.
