Progressive Chart
In order to make observations about the future, astrologers by one means or another may “progress” a birth chart so that it represents a future period in time rather than the moment of birth. There are several ways of doing this, the most popular being the “day for a year” system. When a birth chart/horoscope is progressed for a future date, the astrologer's interpretations are referred to as “progressions” not “predictions.”
The Brotherhood of Light Astrological Research Department began in April, 1924, to solicit data, and since that time has collected, erected, and progressed according to this Hermetic System, many, many thousands of birth charts to the time of some given event.
By using the Hermetic System, and being conversant with Major Progressions, Minor Progressions and Transits, I will be able to a give you a precise judgment regarding the little events, from day to day and week to week, and their influence in the life of oneself.
Events occur in people's lives which can only be explained adequately through the progressed aspects of the Asc. and M.C. We thus progress them, as if they were planets.
It should be borne in mind that an individual with active extra-sensory perception can take almost any system, however unreliable it may be to others, and get startlingly precise results.
What we have striven for in our presentation of the Hermetic System, however, is not a system of divination; but to find and include all the actual astrological energies which have an important bearing upon human life. It may be that there are yet factors which remain undiscovered; but if so we will include them only when, through extensive analysis, we have become fully convinced that only by their use can certain conditions or events be satisfactorily explained or predicted.
Progressed aspects indicate time-velocity transformations of energies, released according to the day-year, month-year, or year-year ratio, which bring about structural changes within the astral body. These structural changes enable the stellar cells to receive additional energies from the planets and thus gain the impetus to work, from the inner plane, to bring events of a definite type into the life.
The energy-release, as mapped by a progressed planet, is in that compartment and zone of the astral body mapped by the house and sign of the birth chart in which the progressed planet is located. Thus a planet merely moving through a house of the birth chart by Transit, by Minor Progression, or by Major Progression, brings about a structural change in the astral body which enables it to receive energy, of the nature indicated by the progressed planet, in that region. The energy release shown by a
progressed planet forms a temporary stellar dynamic structure within the astral body. This acts as a radio receiving terminal for picking up and transmitting to that compartment of the astral body the energies of the vibratory rate of the planet.
The reason the degree of fortune or misfortune of the event is difficult to determine is not only due to the resistance or facilities which environment offers to bringing about what the thought-cells desire, but also that a variety of conditions may influence the stellar cell activity as to harmony or discord. The normal way the thought-cells feel, in the compartment of the astral body influenced, must be estimated. Then must be gauged just how much this normal feeling will, or will not, be changed by the new influx of energy. Furthermore, it must be considered to what extent, if any, Rallying Forces, indicated by other progressed aspects, will be able to reach these stellar cells with their type of energy.
That is, there is always the factor of the general Mental Attitude; because if this, in spite of the particular progressed aspect under consideration, keeps the consciousness tuned in on some other type of feeling, this supplies the stellar cells at the terminals of all stellar aerials with energy of this harmony or discord, and their activities to attract fortune or misfortune are modified accordingly.
The reason progressed aspects usually work out in terms of their own harmony or discord is because few persons resist permitting themselves to think and feel, at such times, that which is indicated. Even the unwitting application of Mental Alchemy or Rallying Forces, as by those who because of their religious convictions or belief in New Thought continue to feel cheerful and happy in spite of apparent adversity, quite markedly, as we have had occasion to observe, modifies the misfortune that
otherwise might be expected from a severe progressed aspect.
