Ancient astrologers could pick out seven planets, seven moving points of light in the night sky. They awarded them the attributes of angels, or gods. In this presentation I interpret the arrival of the New Kings chapters 17 to 19 as the introduction of the new planets beginning with Uranus, discovered in 1781. This takes us up to the present day and describes our sad insensitive destruction of our beautiful planet, so obsessed are we with consumption, and gaining absolute control of our environment in the interests of greed and fear.

The New Kings

2. In Part One John introduced the number Seven. He spoke
of seven churches, seven lamps of gold and seven stars.
In Chapter 1, verse 20, we were told that the ‘seven stars
(planets) are the angels of the seven churches’.
7
1:4 .. seven churches .. 1:12 Seven lamps of gold .. 1:16
.. seven stars. 1:20 ...the seven stars are the angels of the
seven churches.

3. This is a copy of a page in the
Jewish encyclopaedia illustrating
the seven branched candlestick.
Quote: ‘The seven lights may be
said to represent the seven
planets, which, regarded as the
eyes of God, behold everything. ..
in the Babylonian religion the
seven planets are the seven chief
gods.’
Some theologians think John
was a Palestinian Jew because
the language that he used in his
manuscript was Palestinian
Greek. I am confident that when
John speaks of seven stars he is
alluding to the planets.

4. Remember Ishtar – this time I’ve included Nabu. They both have wings just like angels! Babylonian Nabu ‘the scribe’ is Mercury, Virgo’s old
ruler. Virgo rules libraries. This plaque decorates the Library of Congress
in Washington. Symbols have staying power.
Ishtar/Venus
Nabu/Mercury

5. John also speaks of seven spirits,
seven seals, seven horns, seven
eyes, seven angels sounding
seven trumpet blasts, seven
thunders, seven crowns, seven
plagues, seven viols, seven
heads, seven mountains and
seven kings.
This is the order in which
Claudius Ptolemy places the
seven ‘ruling planets’ in his
famous TETRABIBLOS.
In Part Two I equated ‘angels’
with planets, I think it is
reasonable to equate astrological
planetary ‘rulers’ with kings?
Rulers = Kings
The Ptolemaic Order of
Rulership

6. Now, in Chapter 17 verse 10, the text begins to specifically
address these seven ruling planets as kings. John tells us ..
17:10 There are seven kings. Five are fallen …
Why are five kings described as fallen? Is it because Saturn,
Jupiter, Mars, Venus and Mercury, are having to rule two signs?

7. My interest in these kings was particularly stimulated when later
on in this same chapter 17, in verse 12, I read that the seven
kings had suddenly become ten? This is what John says ..
17:12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten
kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but
receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
7 plus 3 = 10.
WHY – I want to know have THREE NEW
KINGS been added to
the text ....
?

8. So I read Chapter 17 Verse 10 with special care.
What has happened to change the number of kings from seven to ten?
Is there a clue in this sentence?‘
17:10 ... there are seven kings. Five are fallen, and … one is ..
ONE IS ?
What’s with this ONE IS ?
The Creative Heaven is symbolised in the Chinese
oracle, the I Ching, by the number 1.
The planet Uranus, first God of the Hittites, was
discovered by William Herschel in 1781. Uranus was
originally called Oranus which translates as ‘Sky’.
Herschel
Is this symbolically significant?

9. Here he is … Mr Wow.
He sits in the top position
on both the Creative
Heaven and Receptive
Earth models and on the
Receptive Earth model he
sits at the top of the
section identified with
The Creative.
He is Top Alpha.

11. Some astrologers did not appreciate this
revolutionary disruption of the old system.
It was William Blake’s friend John Varley
who decided that Uranus ruled the sign
Aquarius. This is what he wrote:
John Varley
‘Aries and Scorpio are the houses of Mars,
Taurus and Libra are the houses of Venus,
Gemini and Virgo are under the dominion of
Mercury, Cancer is the house of the Moon,
Sagittarius and Pisces are the houses of
Jupiter, Capricorn is the house of Saturn; and
Aquarius is governed by the Herschel planet.’
My thanks for this information goes to (the expert) Kim Farnell.
Because astrology is a study of the sky, astrology is thought by many
astrologers to be connected to the sign Aquarius. Aquarius is a fixed sign
which means astrologers don't like change, yet Uranus causes revolutions!
It’s a conundrum. We need to remember that Uranus’ partner is Saturn and
Saturn is forever tempted to carve its secular regulations into stone.

12. So back to the text: ‘
And there are seven kings: five have fallen, and one is …
ONE IS ?

13. ADD ON
Photograph from
Rhona.
Monica (in a moment of inspiration) has
pointed out that this New King was
discovered in New King Street.

14. So here we see Uranus, principle, connecting with Saturn, structure, a perfect
pair: freedom plus responsibility. Saturn no longer controls the Aquarian
collective. No longer can kings declare ‘l’etat c’est moi’ (The State is Me) with
impunity. The American War of Independence was won in 1781. Please note
that just as with the primal pair, the Sun and the Moon, a positive-male sign,
always links with a
female sign. Here
Capricorn, a negative
1781
female sign, links with
Aquarius, a positive
male sign.
This is an example of
yin (negative) and yang
(positive) equivalence.

‘All men are
created equal.’

15. So we are back to contemplating the indivisibility of space-time. The
Chinese thought of Cosmos in terms of space-time.
This is from Ames and Hall’s academic text on the Daodejing (I Ching).

16. Revelation - the sentence continues:
..... and the other is not yet come: and when he
cometh he must continue a short space.
Neptune, discovered by John Couch Adams in 1848,
had already been catalogued but mistaken for a star
by U.J.J. Leverrier in 1795.
Neptune is notoriously ambiguous.

17. And here he is ……
The first life on Earth was nurtured
in Neptune’s waters. Can Neptune
ever be said to be completely and
absolutely manifested? The 12th
house represents our time in the
womb.
We all spend time in the womb not
yet come, but the place from which
we cometh.

18. Stan Grof writes: ‘… undisturbed intra-uterine life is synonymous with Pisces’
ruling planet Neptune’ (Beyond the Brain, 1985, State University of New York). Sag’s ruling
planet, Jupiter, stands for internal structure (DNA?) expansion and development.
Ah! Another New King perhaps?
With Neptune now ruling Pisces (as Jupiter’s complementary partner) intuition
joins with feeling, knowledge with empathy, mysticism with philosophy - the
Receptive quality of Pisces combines with the creative expansiveness of Sag.
So along with
Jupiter’s ethics we have
fully realised Neptunian
1795
mysticism.
or
Since Neptune was
discovered Christianity
1848
has begun to change.
Ninth house religious
organisation is giving
way to a less defined
Neptunian expression,
more in tune, it seems
to me, with Jesus’
original intentions.

19. +

And perhaps we
ought to note (again)
just as with the
primal pair the Sun
and the Moon, a
yang-male sign
always links with a
yin-female sign.

20. Now, before we read chapter 17 verse 11, we take a backward step and look at
some previous verses as they will help us to understand the introduction to the
tenth king.
In chapter 17 verse 7 we are let into a secret - the secret meaning of the beast
(yes the one with ten horns) upon which the famous Whore of Babylon rides.
Count the horns.
(Or are they planets!)

21. Remember, this is the original verse that first stimulated my
interest in this chapter.
17:12 And the ten horns which thou
sawest are ten kings, which have received
no kingdom as yet; but receive power as
kings one hour with the beast.
What is this beast about?
?

22. 17:7 .. I will tell you the mystery
of the woman, and of the beast
that carries her, which has the
seven heads and the ten horns.
17.8 .. behold the beast that
was, and is not, and yet is.
The woman represents the ‘female’,
material, aspect of existence. The
beast she rides is ‘time’. It was
yesterday, is not yet tomorrow and yet
is now.
This is not structured Saturnian
time, ordered and controlled, counted
in seconds and minutes, this is MarsPluto time, time that is directly
experienced as the constant birth and
death of the passing moment. This is
‘time’ that we ‘intuit’ (fire) and ‘feel’
(water), ‘time’ that was, is not, and yet
is.

23. MARS/PLUTO
TIME
Parietal Lobes

24. Now back to Chapter 17
verse 11 (the verse that
follows the introduction of
the first two new planets).
It concludes with a
description of this same
beast.
And here is Pluto, god
of the underworld, ruler of
the eighth house with his
partner Mars who is one
of the seven. He is right
on cue!
When we added Pluto to
our Zodiacal pantheon we
had evolved sufficiently to
conceive of ‘Relative
Time’.
So ... what’s this with
perdition??
17:11 .. the beast (Mars/Pluto) that was,
and is not, even he is the eighth, (Eight
House) and is of the seven (Mars) and
goeth into perdition.
1930

25. In Latin Plouton is related to the
word "wealth“.
Pluto has made available the
wealth of the underworld, oil and
coal. We are presently very aware
that our hungry dependence on
these commodities has
endangered our planet.
It doesn’t sound good and I
suspect this is not an
exaggeration.
Our mastery of nuclear fission (the breaking
apart of an atom of Uranium) produced a
new element, plutonium, the basic
ingredient of the atomic bomb.
Pluto is Earth’s recycling energy. Pluto
breaks down discarded materiel back into
its component parts so that it can be reassimilated into the life process.
Pluto will degrade most things ….
but not PLUTONIUM.

26. So, after the introduction of the three new planets and a bit of to-ing and
fro-ing we have arrived in the text at the mention of those ten kings.
And here they are - all ten of them.

27. Chapter 17 verse 13 continues
the story.

17:13 They have one mind and
shall give their power and
strength unto the beast.
Modern technology is heavily
dependent on Pluto’s wealth.

17:16 And the ten horns which
thou sawest upon the beast shall
hate the whore and shall make her
desolate and naked.
And shall eat her
flesh and burn her
with fire.
This is where we find
ourselves now ...

28. 17:17 For God hath put it in
their hearts to fulfil his will, and
to agree, and give their kingdoms
to the beast, until the words of
God shall be fulfilled.

29. Here is a review of these eight verses.
17:10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not
yet come and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.
17:11 And the beast that was , and is not, he is the eighth, and is of the seven,
and goeth into perdition.
17:12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received
no kingdom as yet: but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
17:13 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the
beast.
17:14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them;
for he is Lord of lords, and king of kings: and they that are with him are
called and chosen, and faithful.
17:15 And he sayeth unto me. The waters which thou sawest, where the whore
sitteth, are people and multitudes, and nations, and tounges.
17:16 and the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the
whore and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and
burn her with fire.
17:17 for God hath put in their heads to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give
their kingdom to the beast until the words of God shall be fulfilled.

30. And this is the final verse in the chapter.
Could this be another ruler?
17:18 And the woman which thou sawest
is that great city, which reigneth over the
kings of the earth.
So now ‘the woman’, ‘the whore’, is also symbolised by
‘A CITY’ ?
The Apocalypse (unveiling), another name for The
Book of Revelation, is concerned with introducing The
Golden City which has long been thought of as the
introduction of a New Age.
We had better take a look at how Ages operate.

31. I used to think of Great Ages like a string of sausages, each one acting
as a separated influence, but my husband, who is well versed in
ancient history, ridiculed this idea.
He was right - this was not how they work.
Taurus/Scorpio
Aries/Libra
Pisces/Virgo
When I studied history it appeared that each Age was displaying the
symbolism of the age that went before. So what was going on?

32. If we think of ages acting
like tree rings everything
falls into place. Every
approximately two
thousand years New Ages
are born and a new
innovative ideology pushes
the old age ideology out to
the periphery where the
socio/cultural influence
lives on.

34. On the following slides you will see a diagram I drew
up when studying World Ages.
After an initial seed point (we will look at this later)
the influence of a Great Age shows itself most
obviously towards the end of the age.
You can watch the age of Pisces/Virgo blossoming
noticeably right now. If you think about it you will see
that The New Age Movement, alternative health, and
mystic get-togethers with lots of music, is an
expression of the Old Age flowering.

35. Mayflower

to
Botany (Virgo) Bay (Pisces), Australia. The
world was colonised by western man:

37. As mentioned already, The New Age
Movement is an expression
of the Old Age flowering.
Music festivals (getting spaced out
on drugs and drink) are Piscean
occupations and ‘alternative health’
is Virgoan.
This is mixed in with New Age
influences. Aquarius groups,
technological sound systems and
Leo Pop Stars also feature.
Yahweh is a Saturnian father-god,
the twelve tribes were twelve
families (Cancer).
Flood?

38. These planets are being discovered in a very obvious order - from the top
down. The New Age (described in the final chapters as a marriage of the
Spirit to his Bride (positive to negative) cannot happen until this allimportant male/female coupling is complete.
What comes next? Libra is undoubtedly Venusian.
Who rules Taurus?
?

39. Who is the Woman?
Here is that instructive verse again …
17:18 And the woman which thou sawest is that Great City,
which reigneth over the Kings of the earth.
We must take a closer look at this woman for it is this female consort
of the heavenly spirit, Mater (the mother), the matter aspect of energy,
the space aspect of time, the negative rather than the positive, that is
to be the foundation upon which this New ‘Creative’ male Age is to be
constructed. She has already been mentioned at the beginning of
chapter twelve - the first time Revelation mentions the full complement
of ruling planets.
12.1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman
clothed with the sun and the moon under her feet and upon
her head a crown of twelve stars ………….

40. The Anima Mundi represents, not only our beautiful home planet - the
progenitor of our collective intelligence - but also the personal cognitive
processes operating in individual brains – and she has a crown of
twelve stars, all essential to her productivity. Here is that verse again ..
12.1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the
sun and the moon under her feet and upon her head a crown of twelve stars
………….

41. 12:2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained
to be delivered.
Mother Earth prepares to give birth to
life. We are back at Chapter 12 (prior to
the mention of the kings) to hear about
the woman again.
12:3 And there appeared another
wonder in heaven; and behold a
great red dragon having seven
heads and ten horns and seven
crowns.’ 12:4 ‘And his tail drew
the third part of the stars of
heaven and cast them to earth:
Same dragon? This is the first mention of a beast. In I Ching mythology the
yang dragon of time and the yin dragon of materiality are at war.
Ouranus, disruption, and, Saturn, order, stand in the unstable position at the
top of both primal hexagrams. Is this his tail? Remember, the Complementary
Connection Time is made up of Mars-Pluto but Saturn also represents Time (old
father Time) – if we include Saturn/Uranus this beast accused of consuming the
woman’s children, covers a third of the heavens: Capricorn and Aquarius,
Scorpio and Aries. Four is one third of twelve.

42. 12:4 …. and the dragon stood before the woman
which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her
child as soon as it was born.
This is one mean dragon.
Time is inexorable. It devours us. It
never stops, and eventually, it confronts
us all with death.

43. We already know that the
woman (in her personification
as the whore) is also
mentioned in chapter 17,
verses 3 and 4.
And chapter 17, verses 10 to
17, are the verses that
introduced the new planets.

44. Here is another representation of
the whore, female representative of
the Age of Taurus Scorpio.
Revelation informs us that on her
forehead is written …
17:5 BABYLON THE GREAT,
MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND
ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
The Age of Taurus/Scorpio was the
age of the great Babylonian empire
when cities were massive and
trade flourished. Taurus is
certainly sensual and acquisitive
and her consort is erotic Venus but
isn’t this criticism a bit harsh ? St
John tells that us that he really
admires this woman.
Artserve at the Australian National
University
17:6 .. I wondered with great
admiration.
Me too. She must have been amazing.

45. My daughter drew this in the 1990s
when I was writing the very last
words in the very last chapter of my
trilogy The Golden City.
I was writing about the upcoming
eclipse chart of 2000 set for
Babylon - an eclipse that was to
occur when the Sun moved onto 00
Aquarius at the very beginning of
the new Millennium.
Em did not know what I was
writing about. When I got up from
my computer to look at what she
had been drawing I saw this .. I was
amazed, just like John was amazed.
I think it’s the best pic of the whore
ever. Em has drawn the beast and
the woman as if they are one –
which they are. And the whore
looks like a Bodhisattva doesn’t
she? This is an evolved whore.

46. Babylon
On this chart PLUTO
in the 10th HOUSE
rules the Scorpio MC
and New Age Uranus
is rising in Aquarius.
Em’s natal chart
has Sun in Leo,
conjunct this charts
Moon, and the Moon
in Aquarius, conjunct
this charts Sun –
can’t get much more
New Age than that.

47. So to get back to where we
were –
What is happening here!
The angels, the original
seven kings, have joined
up from Sun to Saturn in a
neat zigzag pattern.

48. What if we continue adding the New Kings in the order they were discovered
it looks like this … Uranus 1781, Neptune 1849, and Pluto 1930.
So what’s next?
1781
Here is a familiar
planet, first seen in
all her planetary
glory in 1961.
1849
1930
?
So, which sign
is ruled by planet
Earth?

49. This is a slide from my Anima Mundi presentation. It explains how DNA
and this model of the planets are founded on the same principles.
DNA consists of a double string of simple molecules called bases. There are only
four bases; these are adenine, A, guanine, G, thiamine, T and cytosine, C. The
Pattern of Evolution is made up of four elements; these are Earth, Air, Fire, and
Water. In DNA the base adenine always links with thiamine and the base
guanine always links with cytosine. This is reflected by the pattern on the Earth
Alignment. Earth always links with Air, Water always links with Fire.

50. Earth is the perfect planet for applying to rulership of the second house
sign, the house of values and possessions – she is surely our greatest
possession. The second house is Taurean – Taurus is the second sign. So
now when we add the new planets - including our mother planet Earth - it
looks like this.
AND LOOK! Here is the
symbol for Earth that I
found in my Cassell’s
English Dictionary … she
is Venus upside down!
Is this significant or
what?
1961

51. Oh yes … didn’t we learn that the gift for Libra was to rule the world, and
weren’t the gifts symbolic of the complementary planet i.e. the Moon’s
gift is the Sun’s Crown, Mercury has Virgo’s white stone on which he
can write, and now Venus is co-ruling with Mother Earth?
.. to him I will give power over the nations: 2:27 ... And he
shall rule them with a rod of iron;

52. This addition of planet Earth marks a momentous
evolutionary step.
We have achieved ‘lift off’.
We have broken free from Earth’s powerful
gravitational hold.

53. Earth is the only planet we have yet discovered in which the Four
Elements, earth/air/fire/water, exist independently and in large quantities.
The Anima Mundi, also called Philosopher’s Stone, means Living World
(anima as in ‘animated’ and ‘animal’) World Soul or World Mind.
Anima Mundi
AIR and FIRE
Levity
Gravity
EARTH and WATER

54. But what’s this about ?
‘12:14
And to the woman were given two wings
of a great eagle ..…’
This is where I offer
you a hyper-brief
(only four slides)
introduction to my
Magnum Opus –

55. Here is a diagram I drew in the mid 1980s. On the left is The Zodiac, The
Creative Heaven – you can see the new zigzag pattern completed at the bottom.
On the right is The Receptive Earth (the Woman), I have labelled it The Pattern
of the Elements as I drew this up at least 15 years before Liz informed me that
her model, on which this set-up is built, was based on the Anima Mundi. Look
at the diagram to the right of the zigzag pattern. This is what the zigzag pattern
looks like if you join up the same sequence on the female model, The Woman.
ANIMA
MUNDI
No
Wings -
Look
WINGS!

56. It was mention of the two wings of the cerebral cortex that drew my
attention to the possibility this might be a model of the brain. That
was way back in 1986. Now, after much study, I am convinced this is
what it is. The seven planets, when applied to this model, are not
called angels, the beast was described as having seven ‘heads’ ..
this is pertinent as they stand here for cognitive functions –
Forebrain
Limbic System
Left
Hemisphere
Right
Core brain
Hemisphere
Cerebellum
WORLD MIND!
Seven planets = angels
Seven heads = cognitive functions

57. So back to the discovery of Earth.
The Taurus Element is the Sensing Element –
How did astronaut Russell L. Schweickart know to write this?
‘You know very well that moment, and it comes through you so
powerfully, that you are the sensing element for man. You look down
and see the surface of that globe that you've lived on all this time,
and you know all those people down there, and they are like you,
they are you, and somehow you represent them.’ The Home Planet,
Conceived and edited by Kevin W. Kelly. Macdonald Queen Anne Press.
1846
Earth is
Sensing
1930
1961
1977

58. The influence of this discovery on the human psyche - the discovery of Venus’
partner Earth - was obvious. The Beatles sang ‘Love, love, love’, and ‘Love, love
me do’, and ‘All you need is love’ - and nobody could get enough of them.
Hippies preached Free
Love: Flower Power was
‘the thing’.
Flower
Power

59. Babylon, by Joan
Oats. Thames and
Hudson Ltd.1986
Remember - the Age of
Taurus/Scorpio, 4,000 – 2,000
BCE, was the age when we learnt
to Build Big. We built tombs
which we filled with
possessions. It was the age of
great cities when trade between
rich and powerful nations was
established. Herodotus said of
the Babylonians – they were
more interested in making money
than making war!

60. Our massive cities, commercial and financial empires, and World
Trade organizations, are all born of this Age of Taurus the Bull.
The
Wall
Street
BULL.
WOW!

61. So, back to Chapter 17 verse 18 where we began. This is the
chapter introducing the new planets. Here is the woman again.
17:18 And the woman which thou sawest is
that Great City, which reigneth over the Kings
of the earth.
I think we might have got this worked out. The woman is our
own planet, complementary connection to Venus (her sister
planet).
From a symbolic standpoint she is the Anima Mundi, the living
Earth, the Receptive feminine archetype. No wonder she is so
important.
She was the undiscovered (therefore unconscious) ruler of
the Age of Taurus/Scorpio, the age of great cities, commercial
and financial Empires, and World Trade.

62. Now we move from chapter 17, in which we were introduced to the whore
and the new planets (including the woman ), to chapter 18 and ….
The Fall of
Babylon

63. 18.2 .. Babylon the great is
fallen, is fallen .. 18.9 And the
kings of the earth, who have
lived deliciously with her shall
bewail her and lament for her,
when they shall see the smoke of
her burning ..
Could this be the fall of the World Trade
Centre?
18.10 Standing afar off for the
fear of her torment, saying, Alas,
alas that great city Babylon that
mighty city! for in one hour is
thy judgment come.
I had just arrived at a friend’s house (her
brother lived in New York). ‘Come in
quickly’, she said – her smart new TV
was on – we watched the second plane
hit the second tower together, it didn’t
feel real.

64. The Twin Towers belonged to the New
York Port Authorities.
18:15 The merchants of these
things which were made rich by
her, shall stand afar off for the
fear of her torment, weeping
and wailing,
18:16 And saying, Alas, alas
that great city
18:17 For in one hour so great
riches is come to nought. And
every shipmaster, and all the
company in ships, and sailors,
and as many as trade by sea,
stood afar off …

67. Summing up
Chapter 17, verses 10 to 12, introduced
the rule of the Ten Kings.
Chapter 17 verse 18 introduced the
woman who I identified as Taurus Earth.
In Chapter 18 we were horrified by the
story of the ‘Fall of Babylon’.
Now in Chapter 19 verse 9 we are invited
to the marriage supper …

68. 19:9 And he saith unto me,
Write, Blessed are they which
are called unto the marriage
supper of the Lamb.

Take away the Christian
polyvalence in Revelation’s text
and we are again looking at a
bonding of primary male and
female archetypes.

69. But the marriage cannot take place while the pattern is
incomplete. One of the Kings is still fallen. We need a
ruler for Virgo, a partner for Mercury.

70. Here is a picture of the Goddess Ceres,
goddess of the harvest, she is the
constellation Virgo!
And here is the asteroid Ceres.
01.01.1801
Johannes Kepler predicted another planet
orbiting between Mars and Jupiter but there
was no planet to be found, only bits of what
might have become a planet if Jupiter’s
gravity wasn’t so strong. Might this protoplanet be worthy of serious consideration?
Ceres, first seen in 01.01.1801, was the first
asteroid to be discovered.
From Catherine
Tennant’s Box of Stars

71. Ceres is one of many,
many, many, many, many
asteroids in the main
asteroid belt.
Many manys.
Virgo, the secretary, is
interested in minutiae –
Virgo rules libraries: lots
and lots of words,
sentences, chapters,
stops, and commas in
lots and lots of books.
Mutable, positive,
Mercurial Gemini working
together with mutable,
negative, material Virgo:
an ever mutating
melange of information
encoding capacity.
WOW!

72. And since we discovered
Mercury’s partner look what we
have done to our Earth.
Does this remind you of
asteroids? This is how the
throng of voices could be
broadcast from heaven all over
the world - a new global
communication/ nervous
system. This is a massive (and
possibly troublesome)
evolutionary development.
We have a World Wide Web.
Revelation discusses this
amazing extension of our selfexpression later on in the text.

73. ... But, hang on!
We are forgetting something?
It has been suggested that Chiron is an
escaped asteroid - we mustn’t forget
Chiron. In Greek ‘cheir’ means hands.
Mercury + Cheiron = hands.
This is a highly responsible Centaur so
lets not leave him out.

Chiron was a teacher, a shaman, said
to have named many of the
constellations and to have taught the
arts of war and of healing; in French
Chirurgie (Greek Cheirourgia) means
surgery.
Infants given into Chiron's care grew
up to be famous. Achilles was King
Peleus’ son. Hercules, Jason and
Asklepios were also students of
Chiron.
Asklepios (meaning unceasingly
gentle) became so skilled as a surgeon
and so knowledgeable in the use of
drugs that he is called the founder of
medicine. The sixth house is health
and third house is the house of
education, isn’t it?

76. So what have we got here now? A complete set! Chiron (ecology) was
discovered in 1977 when the Rainbow Warrior took to the waves.
We will be cataloguing the asteroids for some time yet.
Cataloguing – just what Virgo likes.
The star next to Chiron
symbolises the
asteroids in the main
asteroid belt between
Jupiter and Mars.

77. So what does Revelation say about
this new state of affairs?
19:11 And I saw heaven
opened, and behold a white
horse; and he that sat upon him
was called Faithful and True,
and in righteousness he doth
judge and make war.
Again, here are Castor and Pollux,
from Liz Greene’s Tarot Cards - the
Dioskouroi - the Gemini Twins.
The Mythic Tarot, by Liz Greene and
Juliet Sharman Burk
Chiron is a Centaur, half horse
half man, Virginal Virgo favors
white, (writing paper and Word for
windows favour white) and these
Dioskouroi certainly appear to be
setting off to judge and make war.

78. 19:11 And I saw heaven opened,
and behold a white horse; and
he that sat upon him was called
Faithful and True, and in
righteousness he doth judge and
make war.
My first choice for Faithful and True?
The Mythic Tarot, by Liz Greene and
Juliet Sharman Burk

79. OR .....
Mercury Rules GEMINI.
The media have dubbed Clegg and Cameron ‘twins’. Could these two
possibly be playing the part of Faithful and True?

80. Here, for bored astrologers, is a Clegg Cameron Composite. I am a fan of composites, it is a
chart in its own right. It shows us the potential of these two working in unison. This Chart has
a Leo MC and an Aquarius IC. And there is an 11th 5th
opposition. Very
new age. Jupiter
COMPOSITE
and Sun are in
mutual reception. Jupiter is the
angel praised for faith and the Sun
‘cans’t not bear him that is evil’ –
the Sun is True. Is this Faithful and
True? What about the Dioscouroi.
In Virgo Pluto, Mars and Uranus are
clustering around the 11th house
cusp opposing Chiron - we have a
Mercury ruled 8th house and Mars
rules the archetypal Virgoan 6th.
Meanwhile powerful Venus,
conjunct Mercury, is on the cusp of
the Jupiter ruled second house –
and Venus rules the DSC. The Moon
– the people - is sextile the Sun,
Venus and Mercury.

81. Chapter 19 continues, but first we must
take a look at what was said about
Mercury in the letters in Part One.
Do you remember that the letter to
this third angel, ruler of the third
house, made this announcement way
back in Chapter 2 ?

82. Chapter 2, Letters to the Angels
2: 12
And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write;
These things saith he which hath the sharp sword
with two edges; 2.16 Repent; or else I will come
unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with
the sword of my mouth.
2:17 To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden
manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new
name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.
Chapter 19
And now we are told in Chapter 19:
19:12
His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many
crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he
himself.
19:15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he
should smite the nations:
SNAP

83. 19.12 … and on his head were many crowns; …
So what’s with these many crowns: Sounds like asteroids to me!
19.13 and he was
clothed in a vesture
dipped in blood and he
was called The Word
of God.
Ah! Got it. Mercury is I to the me and
me is the Moon, Kan, ‘blood’ isn’t it?
I am unsure about the blood
but I’m sure you’ll get this
… he was called The Word
of God’.
Words belong to this
Gemini Virgo axis don’t
they?

84. 19.14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him
upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
This is from Wiki … Remember the
Dioskouroi? Here they are again.
.. Castor and Pollux are constantly
associated with horses in art and literature.
Their role as horsemen made them
particularly attractive to the Roman
equites and cavalry. Each year on July 15,
the feast day of the Dioskouroi, the 1,800
equestrians would parade through the
streets of Rome in an elaborate spectacle
...[14] . .....
The next few verses relate to the Chiron myth so lets look at what
the myth has to tell us.

85. Chiron and Prometheus
Prometheus (a word that
translates as ‘foresight’) stole
fire from the gods and gave it to
man, an act that so angered the
king of the gods that, in a blind
fury (as ruler of a fire sign Zeus
was personally violated by this
theft), he had Prometheus
chained to a mountain inviting a
great bird to dine on his liver.
Since Prometheus was immortal
his liver restored itself every
night obliging Zeus (Roman
Jupiter) to listen to his victim’s
cries of agony on a daily basis.
Website for this image
Discomforted by the uproar,
Zeus began to regret the
harshness of his punishment but
he was unable to remove the
bonds he had set up.

86. Chiron offered to give his own life in return for Prometheus’ liberty. This
delivered Zeus from his predicament and the punishment was annulled,
thus Chiron served the interests of both Prometheus (foresight), and Zeus
(knowledge). He taught, through the example of his compassionate and
voluntary extinction, a difficult but uncompromising lesson; that life, by its
very nature, incorporates pain and suffering - however unjust the pain and
suffering might seem to be - and that personal death is essential if the aim
is to ensure the continuing ecological development and health of an
immortal living system.
In astrology names which sound
alike are considered to have
similar qualities.
Just as Saturn is equated with
Satan so the Chiron myth can be
equated with Christ. I learnt this
from Ermenine Lantero – The
Continuing Discovery of Chiron.
Samuel Viser Inc 1983

87. 19.17 And I saw an angel standing
in the sun; and he cried with a loud
voice, saying to all the fowls that fly
in the midst of heaven, Come and
gather yourselves together unto the
supper of the great God;
19.18 That ye may eat the flesh of
kings, and the flesh of captains, and
the flesh of mighty men, and the
flesh of horses, and of them that sit
on them, and the flesh of all men,
both free and bond, both small and
great.
What is this saying?
Our bodies, whether mighty or
insignificant, human or animal, are
food for the collective. Life feeds
on death. This is Chiron’s difficult
message.
But wait ….

88. In honour of his sacrifice Zeus put Chiron in the
sky as the constellation Centaurus.
We live forever in the stars. We really do.

89. Tennant’s
Box of Stars
If Chiron has an entourage of asteroids,
why not Mercury? Astronomers suggest
Mercury came in from the outer solar
system and, in myth, the twin Castor was
mortally injured (just like Chiron) and was
sent to live in Pluto’s realm – until, that is,
Jupiter - who was Pollux’s dad but not
Castor’s (it’s a long story) - took pity on the
grieving pair and placed them together in
the sky as the constellation Gemini?
So both Castor-and-Pollux, and
Chiron, have their own
constellation.
I wonder if the Centaurs, the
Kuiper belt, the Oort Cloud,
maybe even the new Plutoids, are
something to do with the injured
Castor? This explains why, on the
diagram, I have also given Gemini
a star.

90. Now we get to chapter 20, a chapter that – mostly - has eluded my understanding. Here are the bits that fit with what I already know.
This is how it begins.
20:1 And I saw an angel come down
from heaven, having the key of the
bottomless pit …
Nick Oakley Smith thinks this might
be the key to the Black Hole Game
(from my book One Way of Looking at
Man). He knows that I have Chiron
conjunct Pluto in the 11th

.. and a great chain in his hand.
Fran has suggested that the chain is the
asteroid belt.
And, of course, there is the
Kuiper Belt as well?

Chrissy, you do realise
this is the 21st century?
No I didn’t …. THANK YOU FRAN.
So where are we ‘at’ now?
We are come of age. We have power,
we have knowledge, we recognised
all of the planetary influences acting
upon us. We are ready for another
trip around the pattern, perhaps
visiting these planets one by one.
We understand fusion – the
mechanism that works the Sun - and
we have stood on the Moon. We are
almost (definitely) on the threshold
of a New Age.

92. Pattern complete!

93. 20.15 And whosoever was not found written in
the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
This is the ring of fire. The day the first of the New Kings moved out of
Pisces - the old age - and into Aries - a sign that means birth - we watched
the dreadful Tsunami in Japan which set off the nuclear fires. Then there
was the earthquake in Christchurch. There has been a lot of seismic
activity around this area recently but I hope the meaning is more symbolic
.. although it wasn’t for ‘the Fall’ was it? I am merely speculating.

94. Now I am going to skip the details in chapter 20 as I don’t understand
them sufficiently - that the Israelis incarcerate Palestinian terrorists in
Geddon (Armageddon means field of Geddon) is a bit worrying since
the old age was born on that piece of our planet - and move onto the
chapter that aroused my curiosity in the first place. Chapter 21 begins:
21.1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth … 21:2
And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming
down .. from heaven prepared as a bride adorned for her
husband.

95. Here she is again … the planet that gives birth to life - that gave birth to us.
The Anima Mundi. Edgar Mitchell in the book The Home Planet writes:
‘My view of our planet was a glimpse of divinity’.

96. And so, after these rather stressful
chapters, we get to Revelation Part Three
which supplies an interpretation of the
last two chapters in the Bible, the Holy
book of the Age of Pisces.
In Part Three we hear about the Marriage
of the Spirit to his Bride and the
Introduction of a New Age. Whoopee!
