13 Sagittarius

#Sagittarius 13. Sitting for her portrait, Mona Lisa feels as if millions of people are watching her. (Omega Symbol) Transforming/Receptive

(Degree Angel: Aniel (AH-nee-EL) The Big Picture, Breaking the Circle)

This degree senses the numberless hidden connections between itself and the world around it, as well as the worlds of the past and future. All currents we carry are automatically sent out and received by a countless number of different consciousnesses. And so one of the greatest magical acts we can perform is to shine the radiance of a smile through all time and space to our countless fellow travelers.

The Chandra Symbol for this degree is “An embalmer at work on a mummy.” Just as Leonardo DaVinci preserved the face of the Mona Lisa for all time, the embalmer does the same with the corpse on which he works. These are ways of holding on to the past by recording it, or meticulously preserving it. Death creates the illusion of complete ISOLATION, and yet in the Omega Symbol of this degree Mona Lisa feels a CONNECTION with millions of people.

This degree signifies the deep connectedness that is always there between each and every one of us, and always waiting to be seen and experienced beneath the illusion of separateness.

Pleiadian Symbol: A past life appears suddenly with crystal clarity.

Azoth Symbol: Looking up, a woman sees a butterfly alighting on the outside of a glass dome.

Seed degree: 3 Virgo. A little girl hugs a giant quartz crystal larger than she. (Omega Symbol). When you innocently embrace clarity you automatically enter into an expansive network of communication.

A woman doing delicate embroidery. (Chandra Symbol). The ability to carefully and consciously create any sort of constructs helps us in preserving whatever has come to carry great and importance and meaning for us.

Fulfillment degree: 22 Aries. A gentle, mild-mannered author who writes horror stories. (Omega Symbol). When we come to realize the vastness of our connections with other people through tremendous spans of time bridging other lifetimes, we see that all of our fears have the fear of alienation as their basis, and find ways to clear that fear so that we may experience the fulness of our relationship to the universe.

Puppets coming alive at night. (Chandra Symbol). When what appears to be dead is prepared for a new life, the new life finds it.

The description of Sagittarius 13 in the context of degree theory in astrology is rich with symbolism and speaks to the interconnectedness of all things. The Omega Symbol of Mona Lisa feeling as if millions are watching her during her portrait session reflects the idea that our actions and presence are felt by a vast, unseen audience, symbolizing the impact we have on the collective consciousness.

The Chandra Symbol of an embalmer at work on a mummy connects to the theme of preservation and the legacy we leave behind. It suggests that through our actions and creations, we can maintain a lasting presence, much like the enduring legacy of the Mona Lisa.

The Pleiadian and Azoth Symbols further emphasize the themes of clarity and transformation. A past life appearing with crystal clarity and a butterfly alighting on a glass dome both symbolize moments of profound realization and the potential for change.

The Seed and Fulfillment degrees offer a narrative arc from embracing clarity and careful creation to realizing our deep connections and overcoming fears of alienation. This journey suggests a path from individual clarity to a broader understanding of our place in the universe and the relationships that define us.

Overall, Sagittarius 13 speaks to the power of our presence and actions, the importance of preserving what is meaningful, and the potential for profound connection and transformation. It’s a reminder that beneath the surface, we are all deeply connected and that our contributions can resonate through time and space.

A Widow’s Past Brought to Light

In the celestial tapestry of life, there exists a poignant thread woven by the stars—a tale of shadows and illumination. At the 13th degree of Sagittarius, where the cosmos whispers its secrets, we encounter the enigmatic symbol: “A widow’s past brought to light.”

Imagine a widow, her heart draped in the shroud of sorrow. She stands at the crossroads of memory and revelation. The past, like an ancient tome, beckons her to unseal its pages. But why? Why now, when the sun ascends anew, promising hope?

This widow, dear seeker, is not merely a solitary figure. She embodies the collective soul—the repository of shared experiences, both luminous and shadowed. Her past, veiled in the folds of time, emerges like a forgotten melody, haunting yet necessary.

Dealing with Unresolved Issues

The past, my friend, cannot be swept aside. It lingers, a ghostly echo, until we confront it fully. This degree speaks of unresolved matters—those gnawing whispers that refuse to fade. We, too, harbor our private histories—the missteps, the triumphs, the unspoken words.

But here’s the paradox: Facing our imperfections is both painful and liberating. As the sun gallops across the sky, we grapple with life’s challenges at an accelerated pace. We dance with karma, twirling in the cosmic waltz of cause and effect.

The Widow’s Revelation

Picture this: The widow, her veil lifted, gazes upon her forgotten transgressions. Etiquette be damned; the universe insists on her self-examination. Compassion, yes, but also accountability. For we are not absolved by sorrow alone.

Rectification—a word that echoes through the ages. Society constructs its rules, rewards, and penalties. Yet, acceptance or rejection rests with us. By baring our scars, we weave a tapestry of shared vulnerability. Our agonies, our ecstasies—they resonate across the soul-group.

And what of loss? Grief, like a tempest, threatens to drown us. But time, that gentle healer, reveals hidden blessings. Within darkness, a spiritual light emerges—an eternal refuge. We become rocks for others, our empathy forged in the crucible of experience.

So, dear wayfarer, chew on this: Goodness, truth, and beauty guide our steps. Without them, we remain ensnared. And as the widow’s past unfurls, remember—the dawn awaits. Faith whispers that all shall be well.

For in the end, it is this understanding that makes everything right. 🌟

Two things struck me yesterday while the Sun traversed through 13 sagittarius. One was a sense that this degree-symbol tends to look backwards, to rest or rely on the past... the way it has been. All too often, this leads to staying stuck in the same emotional field going over and over emotionally charged matters in the mind, the heart and the memory. Really, Sagittarius 13 can overwhelm the stereotypical 'worry' placements such as Cancer Moon or even Virgo Moon.

But it is also a potentially liberating day. The deep feelings and memories can be celebrated while safeguarding their keeping. Attitude is everything.

A widow’s past is brought to light"

So, if you want a big dramatic sad or bitter story to be your masterwork... you can have it.

But if you want a precious memory that shines a light on uplifting beauty and enlightening shift in key... you can have that too.

AN EMBALMER WORKING ON A MUMMY.


In this context, the embalmer symbolizes someone who works intimately with the transition from life to death, preserving what was to ensure it is remembered. This can be seen as a metaphor for the psychological process of dealing with change or loss, preserving memories, and learning from the past.

The passage asks whether one will become trapped by the past (“habitual trapped creatures”) or use their experiences with endings and transformations (“the redemptive and the regenerative aspects of death”) to grow and evolve. It speaks to the potential to learn from the cycle of life and death, to understand its mysteries, and to possibly find a way to work harmoniously with these forces (“to collaborate with the lively ones among the dead”).

Ultimately, it’s about whether one chooses to be consumed by the past or to use their experiences to enrich their understanding of life, leading to a celebration of existence (“they celebrate its free becoming more fully than anybody else would be able to approach in that sparkling way”). This degree speaks to the power of perspective and the choice to either be limited by or to transcend the cycles of life and death. It’s a call to embrace the full spectrum of existence, including its endings, as a path to greater wisdom and fulfillment.
