Min's Light & Sound - Chapter 8 of 10
Ph.D.
Chapter 8
By Jove!
GETTING BACK TO the basics. It's the light and sound of
the astrological forces which help man to recognize the
hierarchical quality and magnitude of the aforesaid. It
is especially the sound and range of human hearing that
provides us with multiple octaves of astrologic insight,
thereby focusing our consciousness and vastly improving
our understanding of the stars and their active portent,
which we know extends across the spectrum of all energy
in the universe. And we also know is centered on middle
C where our human ears are concerned. Human eyesight is
confined to a very narrow slice of this energy spectrum,
beginning on the color Red and falling off after Violet,
i.e. just above Infra-Red up to just below Ultra-Violet.
Sound covers about ten times the octave as light covers,
making sound perhaps ten times more conducive to gnosis.
Considering the unique and distinctive qualities of the
variations of visible light and audible sound as we see
and hear, we can be sure that each octave of electromag-
netic energy reveals similarly distinct characteristics,
yet all manifesting by the law of octaves as applies to
light and sound, that law being the seven by twelve, or
the music of the spheres. Nostradamus referred to these
as La loy du Sol & Venus, or The law of the Sun & Venus,
in quatrain C5Q53. This law is manifested by the orbits
of the planets around the Sun, ergo "Solaires", and the
relative orbits of the planets to the central planet of
activity, which in our case is the phases or aspects of
the planets to the Earth, hence "Lunaries". We'll refer
to these as the Law of Sidereal Orbits & Synodic Phases.
Essentially, the heliocentric orbits and the geocentric
phases of the planets in our solar system are fixed and
unchangeable. In this sense we can think of the planets
as "Titans", the great spheres held in orbit by the Sun.
The "Olympians", in contrast, draw one upon another, as
their combined forces usurp the rule of the Titans, and
expropriate by right of eminent domain--for our benefit!
The Olympians reign supreme over the Titans via the war
of ten sidereal years reigning "as a thousand years" in
the language of the bible. And no wonder, since what we
call the "Devil" is self, whereas the planets' combined
rule serves the greater good, "thy neighbor as thyself".
The self is ruled by Mars, whereas, others are ruled by
Venus with Pluto at the center of hearing. It's notable
that the ancients knew that Venus has the longest predi-
ctable periodic multiple, i.e. 1151 mean tropical years:
ANCIENT BABYLONIAN SIDEREAL-SYNODIC-TROPICAL MULTIPLES
(the five planets with evening & morning zodiac signs)
*MAGICIAN/Mercury:
85 mean-synodic periods =~ 27 tropical years;
191 sidereal ~ 145 mean-synodic ~ 46 tropical
*EMPRESS/Venus:
157 mean-synodic periods =~ 251 tropical years;
1871 sidereal ~ 720 mean-synodic ~ 1151 tropical <=
*TOWER/Mars:
22 mean-synodic periods =~ 47 tropical years
151 sidereal ~ 133 mean-synodic ~ 284 tropical
*EMPEROR/Jupiter:
76 mean-synodic periods =~ 83 tropical years
36 sidereal ~ 391 mean-synodic ~ 427 tropical
*JUDGMENT/Saturn:
57 mean-synodic periods =~ 59 tropical years
9 sidereal ~ 256 mean-synodic ~ 265 tropical
Saturn's rings edge-on =~ avg. 14.75 years
It's notable that the above chart dates circa 1800 BC,
and yet modern orthodox academia flat refuses even to
acknowledge that the ancients were expert astronomers.
Much extant evidence combines to refute the orthodoxy
whether they're willing to admit to this or otherwise.
Back in chapter six, you saw how the circle of fifths
proves that there are only seven key signatures which
coincide with the diatonic scale of all white keys on
the piano keyboard, and that all other key signatures
require at least one black key to satisfy its transpo-
sition. Think of white-keys-only as the Titans, since
the seven diatonic tones, seventh day, seventh heaven,
the seven is sanctified under Saturn's rule, which is
father time, the Scythe & second-largest Jovian giant
in our solar system. Time is unstoppable, it can't be
undone. In the sense of time, Saturn is unconquerable.
Yet, the Olympians managed to defeat the Titans, How?
It's accomplished by transposition with the inclusion
of black keys. Jupiter limited Saturn on the diatonic
seventh of Saturn's Mixolydian modality. Look closely:
S | C | A | P | A | T | G | C | L | V | L | S | S | C | A | P | A | T
A | A | Q | I | R | A | E | A | E | I | I | C | A | A | Q | I | R | A
G | P | U | S | I | U | M | N | O | R | B | O | G | P | U | S | I | U
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Ab | |Bb | | |Db | |Eb | | |Gb | |Ab | |Bb | | |Db
G# | |A# | | |C# | |D# | | |F# | |G# | |A# | | |C#
__} {___} | {___} {___} | {___} {___} {___} | {__
| | | | | | | | | | |
| U | N | P | E | M | J | S | M | M | V |
| R | E | L | A | A | U | A | O | E | E |
| A | P | U | R | R | P | T | O | R | N |
| | | | | | | | | | |
| A | B | C | D | E | F | G | A | B | C |
|______|______|______|______|______|______|______|______|______|______|
| |
/----------------->|<----Mixolydian(G-F)--/
|
/---------->|<------Lydian(F-E)-----------/
See how the diatonic tone of Jupiter is the F, which
is the pitch key of the sidereal Lydian modality? It
is Mercury who augments Jupiter's diatonic fourth on
the B, denoting Jupiter's expansive/augmented nature.
By modal contrast, it is Jupiter who limits Saturn's
diatonic seventh on the F, denoting Saturn's limited
nature, as Saturn is at the upper or outer limits of
naked-eye visible planets (albeit Uranus can be seen
on rare occasions by those who know exactly when and
where to look, but only as a tiny pinpoint of light).
Hence Jupiter limits Saturn, and the myth associated
with Kronos being tied "as a thousand years" by Zeus
is readily understood--thanks to the light and sound
of astrology! Recall that Jupiter is father of muses
by Mnemosyne. Jupiter rules the music of the spheres,
which limits the rule of father time. Thus, Olympian
Gods denote the seven pitch keys by transposition in
the twelve-tone scale of the zodiac. This is exactly
the basis for judicial astrology, where Gods combine
in the predominant hierarchy of their rulership from
their respective positions to the Earth. Again I say,
this is why the Titan Atlas "holds up the Earth" for
the Olympian Gods as Atlas holds the meridian houses
of Earth where the reign of the planets numbers them
accordingly under transposition of the Titan's modes
across the mundane zodiac, in effect overruling time
itself by taking full advantage of the divine powers
exerted upon the Earth by the Gods in Heaven thereby
recognizing that we are Gods-incarnate asserting our
authority on the Earth by our divine birthright. See?
Now you know from where the classical myth of Saturn
being conquered by Jupiter in the ten years war came
from. If you're not familiar with this and the other
related myths, be sure to read Hesiod's Theogony, on
this URL. Note the elevated status awarded the muses,
who sing great delight to the Spirit of the Almighty.
E.g., and I quote Hugh G. Evelyn-White's translation:
"Come thou, let us begin with the Muses who
gladden the great spirit of their father
Zeus in Olympus with their songs, telling
of things that are and that shall be and
that were aforetime with consenting voice."

So you see, the modalities of the planets rank first
in the Pantheion, singing the very music of the Gods.
Once you recognize the astrological-musical basis of
classical myth, then your understanding thereof will
abound an hundred-fold, a thousand-fold, & then some.
There's much to be learned by the study of myth, and
to learn it in the spirit by which it was originally
intended. You may be surprised how many new insights
you'll gain into sacred texts like the Bible, or the
Pyramid Texts. The divine music illuminates the soul,
and elevates the consciousness in spirit and in fact,
in truth and in practice--judicial astrology at work!
Many a great composer, music theorist, mathematician
and philosopher have presented their observations on
the affective key characteristics of the seven modes
and three repeat modes as they are transposed across
the twelve signs of the natural zodiac. Subsequently,
there have been many books published that attempt to
synthesize the opinions of the most renowned experts
on the subject, concluding that a majority consensus
emerges as if on some grande bell curve. I'm pleased
to report that the consensus is somewhat intact upon
subjecting them to astrological scrutiny, the voices
of the muses transposed along the chromatic spectrum
of the zodiac. Perhaps the agreement would be better
if all seven modalities had received equal treatment
over the millennia, but the Ionian and Aeolian modes
have certainly enjoyed more attention than, say, the
Phrygian or Locrian for example. Major keys or minor
keys clearly dominate musical composition, and these
two modes correspond to the Moon & Caelestial Sphere
for the minor, and Venus & Pluto for the major. It's
no wonder then, that these two modalities get played
more than any other. Picture the crescent Moon, with
beautiful Venus centered beside her near the maximum
superior elongation against the starry background on
a clear night sky. The uniqueness of each key charac-
teristic comes by transposition in the horoscope, as
the dominant hierarchy of planets exert their reigns.
Where Venus reigns in the seventh house and the Moon
is therein with ruling Venus, then the major & minor
modes are performed in the key of F# or Gb, which is
a wonderful combination for musical composition. But
as the minutes and hours go by, then certain planets
are bound to transit the meridian cusps of the Earth
into that rulership for that interval of time, until
Venus regains her rule in the seventh house, and the
cycle repeats about every two sidereal hours per day
and night, twenty-four hours a day seven days a week.
For an example of this using the Sun & distant stars,
see the following URL. This only charts the transits:
http://groups.google.com/groups?selm=4TZVMYGZ3728...@frog.gilgamesh.org
This cyclic nature of horoscopic rulerships over the
course of approximately two, sidereal-hour intervals
indicates which of the planetary Gods are dominating,
more at monopolizing, any particular daily horoscope,
which naturally holds true for any location on Earth.
These repeating patterns of rulerships themselves do
not continue repeating but change over the course of
days, weeks, months, years, decades and centuries as
the synodic positions of planets are dynamic, and so
they gradually progress over the long course of time.
Remember our study of decans that began back in chap-
ter three? Ruling planets ingressing the third decan
of its house invite the imminent change of rulership,
awaiting only the impending planetary transit(s), as
the rotation of Earth's meridian house-cusps dictate.
This is sufficiently important to understand, that I
will devote the next chapter to just such an example.
Pattern-recognition is the key resource of astrology.
This is of fundamental, even paramount importance to
the judicial astrologer, or as Nostradamus called us
sovereign Astrologue, in honor of Ab-Ram, or Abraham,
father to the letters Chaldiac--whose sacred symbols
correspond to certain sounds and colors, or to signs
and planets as the "harsh by letters" corresponds to
the Scythe, i.e. God of father time, which is Saturn,
as in the case of Nostradamus' quatrin C10Q65 to wit:
O vaste Rome ta ruyne s'approche,
O vast Rome your ruin is approaching,
Non de tes murs, de ton sang & substance,
Not of your walls, of your blood & substance,
L'aspre par lettres fera si horrible coche,
The harsh by letters will make so horrible notch,
Fer pointu mis a tous iusques au manche.
Iron pointed put to all until the grip.
The notch is the skor or indelible mark of reckoning
indebtedness. Saturn is Judgment in the major arcana.
In this context, the last Judgment is the Apocalypse,
which will "settle the score" in the universal sense.
Remember the war of ten sidereal years? Yes, as if a
thousand years for the battle of Armageddon to occur,
given Venus' 1871 sidereal/720 synodic/1151 tropical.
Verbatim as Edgar Cayce reiterated in reading 5748-6:
"(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."
The war of ten sidereal years and battle forevermore.
Read what the great historian Flavius Josephus wrote
in his discourse to the Greeks concerning Hades bk 1
ch 1 and note where he warns of this future judgment:
"the just are guided to the right hand, and are led
with hymns, sung by the angels appointed over that
place, unto a region of light, in which the just
have dwelt from the beginning of the world; not
constrained by necessity, but ever enjoying the
prospect of the good things they see, and rejoice
in the expectation of those new enjoyments which
will be peculiar to every one of them, and estee-
ming those things beyond what we have here; with
whom there is no place of toil, no burning heat,
no piercing cold, nor are any briers there; but
the countenance of the and of the just, which they
see, always smiles them, while they wait for that
rest and eternal new life in heaven, which is to
succeed this region. This place we call The Bosom
of Abraham.
"But as to the unjust, they are dragged by force to
the left hand by the angels allotted for punishment,
no longer going with a good-will, but as prisoners
driven by violence; to whom are sent the angels
appointed over them to reproach them and threaten
them with their terrible looks, and to thrust them
still downwards. Now those angels that are set over
these souls drag them into the neighborhood of hell
itself; who, when they are hard by it, continually
hear the noise of it, and do not stand clear of the
hot vapor itself; but when they have a near view of
this spectacle, as of a terrible and exceeding great
prospect of fire, they are struck with a fearful
expectation of a **future judgment**, and in effect
punished thereby: and not only so, but where they
see the place [or choir] of the fathers and of the
just, even hereby are they punished; for a chaos
deep and large is fixed between them; insomuch that
a just man that hath compassion upon them cannot be
admitted, nor can one that is unjust, if he were
bold enough to attempt it, pass over it."
[**emphasis added]

One lesson which we can draw from this, is that each
planetary God exerts tremendous powers to the Earth!
Learning to respect the powers of the Gods is a part
of our re-education process. Let's face it. You were
not taught to respect the powers of the Gods by your
school or university were you? Yet it's prerequisite
for practicing judicial astrology. You must learn to
remember to revere the Gods, and our Almighty Father.
Sound familiar? It should, it's how John the Baptist
and his first cousin Jesus taught us how to pray--as
Moses did, whose books of law echoed the golden rule:
"Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against
the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy
neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD"--Lev 19:18 AV
"And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine
heart, and with all thy soul and with all thy might"
--Deu 6:5 AV
The other obvious lesson which we can draw from this,
is that the term "judicial astrology" is really just
another way of saying Judeo-Christian astrology. See?
It's not for the irreverent but is for the religious.
Do not confuse the astro-illogy of gentiles with the
vigilant astrology of the elect. For example, we can
not compare today's pagan astrologers with the Magoi
who visited then 10 1/2 month-old Jesus in Bethlehem.
The Parthian kings were expert astronomers, and were
likely the most able astrologers of recorded history.
Don't be deceived by halfwits who misquote scripture
in order to "justify" their criticism of the subject.
You'll find that none who read ancient Hebrew, Greek
and Aramaic will ever speak out against the Magoi or
anyone else in their league. Reverence begets gnosis.
Irreverence begets confusion and unwarranted evasion
of the facts of the matter. Not only does God permit
judicial astrology, his creation bears Witness to it.
Even the covenant, the bow or the iris set in heaven.
Judicial astrology isn't for anyone but the faithful.
If you don't believe in God you'd be well-advised to
avoid any brand of paranormal research or activities.
It is good, then, that atheists evade the paranormal
across-the-board. Do not delve into astrology unless
you're prepared to trade your faith in faithlessness
for that zealous undying faith in the God of Abraham.
That's what true astrology is about and nothing less.
