Chapter 3
Signs, Decans & Pentads
WITH THE ONE-to-one correspondence of colors and tones with
the twelve signs of the planetary zodiac established (refer
to Compleat Tarot Manual for detailed exposition w/ charts),
the four charts linked at the end of this chapter match the
colors and tones of the signs and their decanates according
to the fixed sidereal modalities of each planet transposing
therein thus physically correlating these subdivisions with
the planets which define their astrological characteristics.
More than a mnemonic, these show the actual associations of
chromatic colors and tones under their planetary modalities.
E.g., the inferior aspect of Mars empowers the qualities of
Aries, which is a definitively synodic relationship of Mars
to the Earth--all relative to Earth's sidereal relationship
with the Sun. Signs or synodic aspects are chromatic, while
the sidereal orbits of the planets are diatonic. Again this
is covered in meticulous detail in my Compleat Tarot Manual.
The first or cardinal decan of each of the twelve celestial
signs denotes the "creative" aspect of the planet who rules
it relative to that planet's synodic aspect to the Sun. See?
Similarly the second decanate denotes the "fixed" qualities
of that aspect while the third or mutable decan denotes the
changeable qualities of the same aspect. These are directly
related to the universal or archetypal qualities of planets,
much as the "constellation" (asterism) Orion inspires us to
recount the classical myth associated with Orion the Hunter,
or the deadly sting of Scorpio, whose heart "Ante-Aries" or
Antares, is similar in apparent size and color to Mars, who
rules Scorpio from his superior aspect to Earth via the Sun.
These are universal archetypes of the planets, inspiring us
to recount the classical Greek mythos of the planets in our
solar system. When we consider the variants of mythology in
ancient history, as Babylonian, Egyptian, Mayan, et al more
ancient and antediluvian cultures who are lost to antiquity,
we find common denominators echoing across the ages and the
continents. For example, Mars is always associated with war
and combativeness, victory and self-preservation. Venus, by
contrast, is forever associated with beauty and balance, as
Jupiter is universally the "king" planet and God of fortune.
Saturn is universally father time, the Scythe who reaps the
harvest in due time. The prevailing threads of ancient myth
underscore the common or universal qualities of the planets.
As a planet transits through one of the signs that it rules
on the caelestial firmament, these are universal rulerships
of that sphere. Contrarily, any planet in a sign it opposes
is in its universal or archetypal detriment--hence the myth
of the planet in contention with the other Gods & Goddesses.
The decans within each sign reveal which quality of aspects
that its ruling planet is coloring any planet found therein
under that dispositing planet. In other words, a planet who
rules the sign of the zodiac disposes, or inclines visiting
planets therein to its prevailing synodic aspect to the Sun.
E.g., a planet in Scorpio is under the influence of Mars in
superior aspect to the Sun, which is necessarily "sustenant"
in its first decan, "changeable" second decan and "creative"
third decan, meaning that the first decan of Scorpio is the
cardinal decan of Mars in superior aspect to the Sun. These
relationships within elemental triplicities and qualitative
quadruplicities to the decans are covered in later chapters.
Just remember, synodic aspects define influences for decans
through the great circle of the zodiac under ruling planets.
Astronomy & Astrology inspires all of our mythic archetypes.
Recognizing how the diatonic and chromatic colors and tones
correlate with the caelestial zodiac is tantamount to under-
standing the archetypical myths associated with the planets
and whether they are receding or closing by radial velocity.
These associations are innate and inextricable, just as the
relationship between the sidereal and synodic orbits of the
planets reveal their astrological interaction in the zodiac.
How planets interact with the universal sphere of the Earth
is hereinabove summarized. How these same planets interact
in the houses of Earth's terrestrial sphere are similar, in
that the sidereal/diatonic qualities with synodic/chromatic
aspects to the Earth are clearly defined: as planetary Gods
with sidereal modalities & synodic ensigns. These modes and
signs are universal on Earth's caelestial firmament just as
spirit is universal. The same modes and signs are elemental
in Earth's terrestrial sphere of experience. The human body
is temporal and soul is eternal in the fallen nature of man;
as the bible calls "son of man". The "Son of God" refers to
the eternal body and soul of God reunited, perfected in the
trinity. In this sense, the God-Man is universal, and lives
in the incorruptible body of Christ called the Resurrection.
This is very important, since we must differentiate between
mans rebellious corruption, and mans harmony with S. Spirit
in order to discern the qualities and portents of the stars.
The incorruptible man lives in harmony over creation, while
the corruptible man dies by his extent of discord hereunder.
The incorruptible man rules slightly above the stars, while
the corruptible man is overruled under the stars. With this
in mind, the following charts include colors and tones with
corresponding decanates and pentades of the planetary signs
according to the sidereal modalities of the planets therein.
Blending lesser colors & tones of decans with dominant
colors of their sign (e.g. Aries is RED) is simple; as
the first pentad of the first decan of Aries gradually
adds its reddish highlights, thereafter the second pen-
tad gradually subtracts it. Thus the beginning of each
decan is simply the color of the sign, as in this case,
Aries. The second decan gradually subtracts its lesser
yellow from the dominant Red until reaching the second
pentad therein, at which point the same tint of yellow
is gradually added back in--which again leaves us with
Red at the end of the second decan. At this point, the
third decan begins adding a tint of blue-indigo to the
default Red color of Aries. This does not effect Aries'
color at all but only pertains to its decans & pentads.
Finally, the second pentad of the third decan of Aries
gradually subtracts the (previously added) blue-indigo.
The same holds true for colors, tones and modes of the
planets as they are transposed across the twelve signs,
and within each sign's decans and pentads. Pentads add
or subtract each decan's softer tones and modes within
the sign to its fundamental or tonic tonality, as with
Aries which is always C. Hence the first pentad of the
first decan of Aries highlights the Arian C with a 'c'
on the octave, emphasizing the fundamental Arian tonic
by a gradual increase in volume of the high 'c' octave,
until reaching the second pentad. From there, the high
'c' is gradually softened, until barely audible before
reaching the start of the second decan, at which point
only the tonic C is played. Entering this second decan
gradually adds a negative 'e' or inversion below the C,
until the second pentad therein after which the 'e' is
gradually softened until the third decan--which brings
us again back to the C. Now begin to add 'a flat' soft-
ly above the tonic C until the last or sixth pentad of
Aries, at which point this augmented fifth above the C
reaches its greatest prominence, and the volume of the
'a flat' is on par with the C albeit the tonic for any
sign must always be kept in the forefront of its theme.
That's easy to do with a major third, like 'e' above C,
which is happy right where it is. Whereas an augmented
fifth sound in conflict with its tonic, and is unhappy
where it is--as if begging for resolution to the fifth
just below it or else to the octave above of the tonic.
These principles are readily demonstrated in all seven
tones and colors of each mode as they transpose across
the twelve signs of the zodiac. More on this later....

******************************************************
There is a need for added clarification regarding the
"Key Signature Of The Gods" charts with decan/pentads
before studying them in 4 parts...three signs apiece).
Recall what Ed Leedskalnin said about these so called
"electrons"--that no such thing ever existed, save in
the minds of those who're bitten rabid! That which we
call the "electron" is in fact a "little magnet". You
can argue this till you're blue in the face, but that
won't change the fact that Leedskalnin proved this by
building Coral Castle using the method of the ancient
builders of the Great "Belt of Orion" Pyramids in the
midst of Egypt--which were built circa 10,500 BC just
as Edgar Cayce described in his many psychic readings:
"I have discovered the secrets of the pyramids,
and have found out how the Egyptians and the
ancient builders in Peru, Yucatan, and Asia,
with only primitive tools, raised and set in
place blocks of stone weighing many tons!"
--Edward Leedskalnin (Latvia 1887-Miami 1951)
"Ed used no heavy machinery or any human help
in carving and constructing his home, according
to sworn affidavits dated 1955 from people who
knew him. The statements, which cover a wall
inside the small gift shop, were collected by
a later owner of the property. Ed managed to
carve out giant blocks of coral weighing up to
56,000 pounds and position them into what he
named Rock Gate."--S. Shapiro, Tampa Tribune

"...there came the periods when peace was made,
so that the priest with the activities returned
to the Egyptian land proper, and there began the
buildings of the pyramids, the rebuilding and re-
enacting of the temple worship, and the laying
out of and the building of the sphinx - and the
opening of the Nile and the other canals..."
\EdgarCayce\readings\5748-006#7
"(Q) What was the date of the actual beginning and
ending of the construction of the Great Pyramid?
(A) Was one hundred years in construction. Begun
and completed in the period of Araaraart's time,
with Hermes and Ra.
(Q) What was the date B.C. of that period?
(A) 10,490 to 10,390 before the Prince entered
into Egypt..."
\EdgarCayce\readings\5748-006#1
"Much has been written respecting that represented
in the Great Pyramid, and the record that may be
read by those who would seek to know more concerning
the relationships that have existed, that may exist,
that do exist, between those of the Creative Forces
that are manifest in the material world. As indicated,
there were periods when a much closer relationship
existed, or rather should it be said, there was a
much better understanding OF the relationship that
EXISTS between the creature and the Creator."
Continuing...
"(Q) How was this particular Great Pyramid of Gizeh
built?
(A) By the use of those forces in nature as make for
iron to swim. Stone floats in the air in the same
manner. This will be discovered in '58..."
[Min's note: Iron oxide naturally "swims" in water]
"(Q) What is the significance of the empty sarcophagus?
(A) That there will be no more death. Don't misunder-
stand or misinterpret! but the INTERPRETATION of death
will be made plain.
(Q) If the Armageddon is foretold in the Great Pyramid,
please give a description of it and the date of its
beginning and ending.
(A) Not in what is left there. It will be as a thousand
years, with the fighting in the air, and--as has been--
between those returning to and those leaving the earth."

________________________________________________________
There are surely 100s of other equally pertinent quotes
which could be cited from Leedskalnin and Cayce regards
the forces of nature, and the building of the Pyramids,
Coral Castle, and the principles which permitted their
construction using methods lost to the Neo-Babylonians;
but the above quotes serve to inspire those interested
in facts -- not fiction -- to study the words of Cayce
and Leedskalnin very carefully, and recognize that the
methods for building these very ancient and latter-day
marvels of architecture and purpose are proven fact by
their very existence... "show me, don't tell me". See?
Keeping this in mind, the so-called "electro"magnetic
spectrum manifests from =>zero Hz up to =>infinity Hz.
The infinitesimal audible and visible portion of the
universal energy spectrum bears witness to its basis.
Realize that the universal precepts of Astrology are
fundamental to all of creation throughout the cosmos:
from wavelengths crossing galaxies per cycle down to
supercosmic wavelengths approaching infinity! And so
music is the no. one best teaching tool in the world
to assist students and teachers of any subject learn
about the demonstrably Astrological rudiments of all
energy and its manifestations across life's spectrum;
hence Music of the Spheres, 7 x 12, i.e. Eighty-Four
radiant Key Signatures of the Gods--of all existence.
This requires participation on the part of the human
who studies Light & Sound and the behavior of energy.
