Howdy. this little theory of mine was brought up in orciniusorcas' thread on 'Musical Tonality' in the general chat forum.
It has since languished over there and I'd like to revive it here with a thread along a different theme i.e spiritual and Sabian interpretation.
I worked on this for some while [and am still 'workin' with it.] and then posed most of the following that appears as 'new thought' to a clairvoyant whom assists me in such matters of seeing beyond what is presently accepted knowledge and she either concurred this is the proper understanding and/or gave me reasonable cause to draw to some conclusions...Please hear me out [and I'm not saying that just because 'Some Psychic' backs me up that this is 'Gospel Truth'...but I think most of you will understand my process of delineation here and the results...and I trust this psychic to be sincere and genuine].
[...this is from a recent posting at actastrology.com ]
...I have a theory on the application of the musical notes to the Zodiac that I elaborated on over at the Astrodienst forum under a thread, I started, titled 'Birth Chart of the Universe".
This theory of mine involves the "Kabbalistic Astrology" book of Rabbi Joel Dobin and how it corresponds with the Sabian Symbols to determine where the OM of creation originated from [The 'Word in the Beginning']. The Rabbi re-translated Habukuk to read that the force of God comes from between Capricorn and Aquarius. OM, by Vedic science, is in the Key of 'B'. Thus by applying a 14 point grid on the Zodiac begininng with the point 00* 00' 00" [actually, since there is no 00* 00' 00" of any degree this occurs just immediately after that point which in fact is 30* 00' 00" Capricorn, thus it is something like 00* 00' 00.ooo....ooo1" Aquarius] and proceding toward Pisces [which represents the key of 'C'], then Aries which is the key of C# {or D flat depending upon your musical nomenclature]...and so on... there is to be a point every 25.714285 degrees [Half the slope of the 'Great Pyramid']. The hypothetical but non-existant 'B#' and 'E#' must be accounted for by this theory of mine. [The hypothetical but non-existent B# is at 25.714285* Aquarius...for example and clarification.]
When the points are connected by 7ths or 5ths [as is the law of musical scale harmonics] you end up with a 12 pointed 'Star Matrix' consisting of two groups of 7 points & 5. When connected in this manner, note that the signs come out grouped as they are presently arranged above and below the equator. For example; Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scopio, Sagittarius, Capricorn and Aquarius are the '7', and the remainder the '5' .
The 12 point Matrix is supposed to represent the "True Path of Discipleship' by some sources [The writings of Dorthy Leon is one]
And if it's as Rudhyar stated that all paths of discipleship begin in Virgo. This is highly illuminating as the first point that one connects to from 00* 00' 00.ooo...ooo1" Aquar. is the point in Virgo in the 22nd degree [ at 21.4285713 degrees Virgo to be percise] when one connects these 'Dots' in cycles of 5ths or 7ths.This also correponds to some ancient Mesopotamian or Babylonian [or they could have been Summerian or Assyrian...I'm not sure] bas-reliefs we have seen with a man beneath an arragement of Stars above him in this configuration of seven stars to one side of him and five stars to his other side.
Also the Sabians that are at these points are most interesting if viewed with the hypothesis they represent the "True Path of Discipleship"...as, according to Rudhyar all true paths of discipleship begin in Virgo then one reads the symbol for the 22nd degree of Virgo and proceds to the symbol for the 18th degree of Libra then the 13th degree of Scopio and so forth for a 'Symbolically Illustrated 12 Step Path of Discipleship" ...all in all, pretty far outstuff, I'll admit...but this theory has got a lot going for it.
Then, by this line of thought the "True Path of Discipleship" begins at Virgo 22*...the symbol for which [from Rudhyars' book] "A ROYAL COAT OF ARMS ENRICHED WITH PRECIOUS STONES. KEYNOTE: The certification of aristocratic status, at whatever level "nobility" expressess itself in cultural eminence. ...Every great Adept has come out of a line of human beings who have made their marks upon human evolution...."
...and the "Path" ends with the 26th degree of Leo the symbol for which is {Rudhyar] "AFTER THE HEAVY STORM, A RAINBOW. KEYNOTE: Linking above and below, the Convenant with ones' divine nature, promise of immortality...we find the man who has been able to weather the cathartic storm face-to-face with his divine Archetype; because he has been victorious, a link has been established with his divine Soul-being...[and Rudhyars' Keyword{s} for this symbol} ...REVELATION OF WORTH"
I believe you should be able to get a pretty good picture of how this is working here by the above.
One has to prove their, or give "certification of aristocratric status" of a sort, to petition for discipleship in most all practices of spirituality that have "Paths of Discipleship."
And what symbol of the entire 360 could be more appropriate to the last step of any "Path of Discipleship" than...the sign from God of a mission [or Journey, or Lesson or 'Path of Discipleship'?] accomplished?? This "A Rainbow After A Big Storm" symbol is as near a symbol as you will find among the Sabians that is representetive of 'God' handing you a DIPLOMA...after your final exams/tests...
Thus what I see that we end up with here symbolically, when we use my theory/system and a fourteen point matrix, is the Path of Discipleship illustrated by ...
Symbol #1 Virgo 22* Initiation...The Certification that one is worthy as a candidate for the Path of True Discipleship...at the beginning
Symbol #12 Leo 26* Graduation...the Revelation that your are Worth-y and you have passed the test from God theirself...at the end!
...a lot of this can also be possibly be viewed as more piceces of the picture in the puzzle from the "As Above, So Below" school of thought.
Try drawing this out for yourselves, where you get a 12 pointed star of 7 tines on one side and 5 tines on the other...read all the Sabians involved in the 12 steps... Stating with Virgo 22* and proceding through the Zodiac until the 26th of Leo and you'll see what I mean!
[I'm not sure how to regard the two 'degrees of the Zodiac @ the 26th of Aquar. and the 30th of Cancer...{in fact right at 29.99999...* Cancer???...this is an interesting matrix!}...but these two degrees are at the least 'some sort of "place holders" in the equation...and then possibly that and nothing more.]
...Again, figure the first point at 00* 00' 00.oo....ooo1" Aquarius and this marks the musical note 'B'
25° 42' 51.42852" Aquarius is the hypothetical/non-existent B#
21° 25' 42.85704" Pisces is C
17° 08' 34.28556" Aries is C#
12° 51' 25.71408" Taurus is D
08° 34' 17.14260" Gemini is D#
04° 17' 08.57112" Cancer is E
29° 59' 59.99999" Cancer is the hypothetical/non-existent E#
25° 42' 51.42816" Leo is F
21° 25' 42.85668" Virgo is F#
17° 08' 34.28520" Libra is G
12° 51' 25.71372" Scorpio is G#
08° 34' 17.14224" Sagittarius is A
04° 17' 08.57076" Capricorn is A#
Now here's something else about this arangement that I like...and gives it some weight for thought.
It has to do with musical harmonics and my 'Runic Explanation' of the Zodiac which is posted elsewhere in this forum.
All you musicians [and some of you non-musicians] know that the keys of 'C' and 'G' harmonize.
The key of 'C' consists of the notes: C, D, E, F, G, A, B
The Key of 'G' consists of the notes: G, A, B, C, D, E, F#
note that the half-step in the key of 'C' is between the notes 'E' and 'F'
and the half-step in the key of 'G' is between the notes 'B' and 'C'
...now whats so interesting about this?...the note of 'E' is Cancer and the 'F' is Leo, and by my 'Runic' explanation Cancer is "All Water On The Earth" and Leo is "All Fire On The Earth" = ...."EVAPORATION!"
...The note of 'B' is Aquarius and the 'C' is Pisces, and by my 'Runic' explanation Aquarius [the Water Bearer] is "All Air Above The Earth" and Pisces is "All Water Above The Earth" = "RAIN!"
DO YOU ALL SEE WHAT I'M SEEING HERE? ...THAT...
Thus, Keys of 'C' & 'G' = HARMONY
& Evaporation & Rain = HARMONY
[...ARE YA' DIGGIN IT?]...Again with the indications/implications that Astrology is the "Mother of All Science"...and interestingly I recently read a passage from a book by Rudhyar wherein He was so bold as to make the same statement, in the context, that 'some day it would be proven as such'.
At one time I kew of a couple of very esoteric web-sites that had mention of things along the lines of this subject I'm pursuing...but they have since disappeared...or it's due to my poor computer skills I can't locate them again....
....SSSOOooooooo....
IF ANYONE COULD PROVIDE ANYMORE INFO ON THIS BAS-RELIEF I SAW...OR OF ANY MESO-ASSYR-BABO-ZORASTRIAN LEGEND CONCERNING 'THE SEVEN & THE FIVE', HERE IT WOULD BE APPRECIATED!
