The Anatomy of Fate: Kabbalistic Astrology

The Anatomy of Fate Kabbalistic Astrology Applying kabbalistic principles, celestial symbols and archetypal images to this ancient art reveals how, when fused with modern psychology, a profound insight can be gained into the processes of both the personal birth chart and historical events. Perceiving the esoteric dimension behind astrology and the horoscope is what this book is about.

Introduction:

Even before records were ever made it is apparent that early mankind was aware of the influence of the Heavens. Many of the first monuments were alignments of stones that marked the rhythms of the Sun, Moon and the constellations. This appreciation of the celestial motions in relation to the seasonal round, methodically studied over many generations, became an important body of knowledge in nearly every evolving culture; so that by the time the first full civilization flowered Astrology was a recognized institution.

Perhaps the greatest discovery of the early period of collating celestial patterns was the observation of the positions of the planets and their correspondence with distinct terrestrial events in the history of peoples and in the lives of individuals. The detection of these subtle interplays brought about a recognition of different qualities of celestial influence. From this discovery came the construction of a model of a multi-levelled Universe at whose centre lay the Earth, the elemental and natural composition of which was clearly subject to the fluctuations of the surrounding macrocosm as it moved through a cosmic progression towards the end of Time.

From the above scheme of the Universe rose the inevitable question as to how, exactly, did human beings respond to this cosmic weather. Man, it was conceived, was the Universe in miniature and as a microcosmic organism resonated in sympathy to the macrocosm. This concept, and how the processes of celestial influence operate, is examined in the work that follows. So too is the nature of fate, free will and the purpose of destiny for each of us who are incarnate for so brief a time between birth and death.
