Scientific Astrology Planetary Symbolisms

Online Lesson 2: Planetary Symbolisms in Scientific Astrology

Online Lessons will get lots of new info SOON! Please check back!!!

35+ years of statistical research shows what really works in astrology, including accurate and consistent symbolic
meanings for planets. These are different in most cases than the accepted meanings in old-school astrology. You
have to get the meanings right if you want accurate astrology.

Some of these symbolisms will be familiar, but even if some of these symbolisms seem strange to you, try them for
a while. You’ll be surprised at the previously inexplicable information they unlock!

Planets in Natal Charts

In Scientific Astrology, though a planet may have negative symbolisms by transit or progression, all planetary
aspects in a person’s birth chart can represent a potential gift of some kind. Depends whether you do your self-
work

Everyone has each and every planet somewhere in their chart. The relative importance of each planet is revealed
by the importance of the Planetary Geometry within which it is found. See Planetary Geometry Lesson
(https://magihelena.com/magi-astrology-lesson-planetary-geometry/).

Though every planetary energy in the natal chart is always expressed somehow, how a person chooses to express
the energies in their chart is purely a matter of Free Will. Every person can choose to rise to the highest potentials
revealed by their birth chart, sink to their lowest possibilities, or dwell somewhere in the middle.
