6th Pisces
Jan. 28th, 2024 02:20 pmPisces 6° “Time for a close inspection.”
The Span of Innocence – The 1st Hemisphere of Pisces
Water Element – Common or Mutable
The formula is: sustaining-practical-universal-specializing-social-experimental.
Dr. Marc Edmund Jones provides the official meaning of this Sabian symbol in his work, The Sabian Symbols in Astrology:
Pisces 6° Officers on dress parade
This is a symbol of a cyclic and necessary intensification of any personal being, as emphasized on the side of ritualized or ideal experience. Dignity and protocol always provide a dramatic and valuable rehearsal of cultural or group values, exalting each individual in some one respect for the strengthening of all in their total pattern. Here is an investment of selfhood for the long-range potentialities of life, made possible by some immediate and self-fulfilling demonstration of personal skill or capacity.
The keyword is DISCIPLINE.
When positive, the degree is schooled self-assurance and absolute responsibility, and when negative, unimaginative exercise of special privilege.

Are you true to your word? Is your word good? Is it the Sword of Truth?
They’ve been through it, these officers, but now they are in their finest attire–their Dress Blues–and they are on display. They have served us–first in the trenches and now on parade before us. These are the finest, the bravest, the leaders…
As we think of the two sides of war, we first envision the us-vs-them war, true enough, but I would draw attention to another engagement taking place silently, i.e., the inward one, where self must face the truth and lingering consequence of actions self has taken “in behalf of a greater cause” or obeying orders because that was the training and indoctrination. One is not to question orders! But the soul doesn’t “take” instruction. The soul is free and ever will be so. Thus, there may be the lingering contesting and resisting and questioning of mandates given and carried out which went contrary to one’s values. This then is “the other war”….
As you watch the silent drill link above, consider this: Honor, integrity and justice–Did they carry the Sword of Truth as finely as they carried their guns and bayonets? Are they at peace with themselves inwardly? Now ask self the same—are your actions in alignment with your beliefs?
Rise up, officer within, the parade has begun, and it is…

“Hidden photos of a deceased woman are discovered.” This suggests that the past can reveal unexpected insights or secrets that can change our understanding or perspective. It implies a process of discovery and LEARNING FROM THE PAST.
Degree Angel Name: “Nithael (NIT-ha-EL) The Death of Death, Rejuvenation and Eternal Youth.” This could represent the angelic influence associated with this degree, symbolizing transformation, renewal, and the overcoming of endings.
The text further elaborates on the theme of learning from the past and using that knowledge to shed new light on old truths. It suggests that individuals with this degree prominent in their astrological chart may have the ability to help others understand how their past has shaped their personality and how it can be reshaped and renewed.
Chandra Symbol: “A hamster running in a treadmill.” This symbolizes a situation where there is a lot of ACTIVITY, but it might NOT LEAD ANYWHERE significant - much like a hamster running endlessly on a wheel. It suggests a state of being where actions are driven by INSTINCT, without much thought for the future. Despite this, there is a positive aspect in the form of simplicity, directness, and the potential to inspire others to action.
In summary, the 6th degree of Leo in astrology is associated with the discovery of hidden aspects of the past, the transformation and renewal of self, and a propensity for instinct-driven activity. It suggests a dynamic interplay between learning from the past and acting in the present, with a potential for inspiring others through one’s actions.

“The pillion degree” could refer to a specific stage or level in a process or system. The term “constrained dependent motion” suggests a movement or change that is limited and relies on other factors. This is enforced, indicating a mandatory progression towards conformity, or uniformity, of change.
“Devolution from ideality” could mean a REGRESSION or moving away from a perfect or ideal state. The “play of reflected crystallization” might refer to the observable effects or outcomes of a process that solidifies or makes clear certain aspects, which are mirrored or repeated in an “organic parallelism among the tissue of inner motions”. This could mean that there are natural correspondences or similarities among the internal dynamics or processes of the system.
This process transforms the “freedom of exchange”, or the ability to freely interact or transfer elements within the system, into a “process of compelled harmony”, suggesting a forced state of balance or agreement. This could involve “parallel change”, or simultaneous transformation along similar lines; “re-confluence”, or coming back together; “concentric whirling”, or circular movement around a common center; or “regular diffusion”, or the even spread of elements.
In summary, the text seems to describe a process where a specific stage involves a forced progression towards uniform change, moving away from an ideal state. This results in observable outcomes that mirror each other within the system’s internal dynamics. The ability to freely interact within the system is transformed into a forced state of balance, involving simultaneous transformation, reintegration, circular movement, or even spread of elements. Please note that this is a complex and abstract text, and the interpretation could vary based on additional context.
The passage you've provided seems to be quite abstract and laden with specialized terminology. Let's break it down into simpler terms:
The Pillion Degree: This term isn't commonly used and may be specific to a certain context or field of study. It likely refers to a particular level or degree of something, possibly related to motion or change.RIDING PILLION MEANS HANGING ON WHILST SOMEBODY ELSE DRIVES FWD. AND MAKES DECISIONS
Constrained Dependent Motion: This suggests that motion or change is restricted or limited in some way and depends on certain conditions or factors.
Enforced Progressive Tendency to Conformity of Change: This phrase describes a situation where change is pushed forward or compelled to conform to a certain pattern or standard.
Devolution from Ideality: Here, "devolution" likely means a deterioration or decline from an ideal state. So, the passage may be suggesting that something is moving away from an ideal condition.
Play of Reflected Crystallization: This could mean the interaction or dynamics of reflections and the formation of crystalline structures. It might be a metaphor for some kind of pattern formation or organization.
Organic Parallelism among the Tissue of Inner Motions: This suggests a kind of harmony or coordination among various internal processes or movements, perhaps likening it to the interconnectedness found in organic (living) systems.
Freedom of Exchange to a Process of Compelled Harmony: This indicates a shift from a state of freedom or flexibility to one where harmony or agreement is enforced or compelled.
Parallel Change, Re-confluence, Concentric Whirling, or Regular Diffusion: These terms describe different patterns or forms of motion or change, such as changes occurring in parallel, converging back together, swirling in a circular manner, or spreading out evenly.
