crimsoncurrentSummary of Aquarius 11 by John Sandbach
Omega Symbol: “A man clearing out his own aura.”
Keyword: Transforming/Experimental
Interpretation: Sandbach’s Omega Symbol for Aquarius 11 emphasizes self-purification and spiritual renewal. The act of clearing one’s aura represents releasing negative energies, fears, or joyless states that hinder personal growth. This degree focuses on creating a vibrant inner environment by cultivating joy, spiritual connection, and light. By addressing the “generalities” (the overall state of one’s energy), specific problems naturally resolve, fostering transformation and alignment with one’s higher self.
Key Message: The degree teaches that a joyful, spiritually aligned self is the foundation for resolving challenges. By focusing on inner light and positivity, external circumstances align to support personal growth and well-being.
Positive: Inner transformation through clearing negativity, embracing joy, and connecting with spiritual light.
Negative: Neglecting inner work, allowing fear or stagnation to dominate.
Chandra Symbol: “Crows eating the corn that a farmer has sown.”
Interpretation: This symbol highlights external challenges or forces that seem to thwart one’s efforts (e.g., crows eating the farmer’s crops). Sandbach suggests that turning these conflicts into power struggles or victimhood leads to unhappiness. Instead, the degree encourages negotiation, sensitivity to others’ needs, and collaboration to overcome obstacles. By focusing on spiritual light and love, one attracts supportive external forces that mirror this inner state.
Positive: Harmonious resolutions through cooperation and empathy.
Negative: Engaging in conflicts or power struggles that drain energy. - Putin
Pleiadian Symbol: “A poet sleeping in the midst of his poems which are scattered everywhere around him.”
Interpretation: This symbol evokes creativity and immersion in one’s inner world. It suggests a state of rest or surrender that allows inspiration to flow naturally, even in apparent chaos. The poet’s connection to their work reflects deep creative attunement, aligning with the degree’s theme of inner inspiration.
Positive: Creative flow and trust in the subconscious.
Negative: Disorganization or failure to act on creative insights.
Azoth Symbol: “At sunset a shepherd watches his peaceful flock.”
Interpretation: This symbol conveys serenity, guidance, and care. It suggests a state of calm oversight, where one nurtures and protects their inner or outer “flock” (e.g., ideas, relationships, or personal growth). It reinforces the importance of maintaining peace and alignment with one’s purpose.
Positive: Tranquil leadership and nurturing stability.
Negative: Passivity or neglecting active engagement.
Overall Theme: Sandbach’s interpretation of Aquarius 11 emphasizes inner transformation through spiritual and emotional cleansing. By clearing negative energies and focusing on joy and light, the individual aligns with their higher purpose, fostering collaboration and attracting supportive external forces. The degree encourages experimentation with self-care and sensitivity to overcome challenges.
Integration with Other Interpretations of Aquarius 11
The Sabian Symbol for Aquarius 11 is traditionally “During a silent hour, a man receives a new inspiration which may change his life” (Marc Edmund Jones, Dane Rudhyar, Lynda Hill) or “A man tête-à-tête with his inspiration” (Lyn Birkbeck). Below, I integrate Sandbach’s interpretation with other astrologers’ perspectives for a comprehensive view of Aquarius 11 (10°–10:59°), as previously requested.
Lyn Birkbeck (The Sabian Symbols: The Astrological Oracle):
Symbol: “A man tête-à-tête with his inspiration.”
Interpretation: Birkbeck emphasizes aligning with a personal vision or muse that brings fulfillment and reveals true capabilities. The degree calls for deep focus on one’s vocation, with inspiration fostering growth in relationships, work, and spiritual life.
Connection to Sandbach: Both highlight inner alignment and inspiration, with Birkbeck focusing on external relationships or work as sources of inspiration, while Sandbach emphasizes inner cleansing to access spiritual light.
Blain Bovee (The Sabian Symbol Quest):
Interpretation: Bovee describes a quiet, introspective moment sparking a life-altering vision. It emphasizes authenticity and individuality, aligning with Aquarius’s innovative energy.
Connection to Sandbach: Bovee’s focus on solitude mirrors Sandbach’s emphasis on clearing the aura in a reflective state, both leading to transformative insights.

Two bulls fighting on the edge of a precipice.
This symbol is related to one in whose nature there is more force and energy than power of direction and self-restraint, and who in consequence will be continually running into
dangers which to him will be wholly unforeseen though obvious enough to others. He will rely upon his strength and pushfulness to overcome his enemies, but it will be shown to him that there is nothing so insignificant as the strength of a man.
Since he cannot overcome Nature let him learn to use her forces with discretion and moderation or he will be wounded in the conflict of life, and unseen dangers will lurk within the hour of exultation as snakes beneath the flowers. It is a
degree of FORCEFULNESS.

Symbol: A headless man, whose body is in full battle harness.
Warlike, rushing and forcible, outwardly splendid and innerly noble, the native seems to have no bearings and no aim. Reckless—nay, altogether blind—he will be destitute of any authority; his victories and his possible popularity will be short-lived. If a winner, he will not know how to exploit his victories and will leave his shoulders undefended for his opponents to hit back; if a loser, he will wander about as luck would have it. In a material sense, theft is a real danger of wounds, mutilation, or death sentence.

10-11 deg Aquarius
Symbol: Flowers twined round a scepter.
Denotes one of gifted mind and exceptional qualities, a singer of songs and a bearer of light, whose works gain for him respect and dignity, and whose name will be remembered long after his form has left this earth. Beautiful thoughts will cling to him as the ivy clings to the garden wall, and pleasant minds will come to him as the flowers which entwine the scepter. It is a symbol of Taste.

11 Aquarius "Two bulls butt heads at the edge of a precipice."
Uncouth, quarrelsome, and reckless character. One often antagonises other people without
thoroughly weighing the possible consequences of such aggressions. Furthermore, one is not aware of one's physical strength and, even when one tries to help friends, one hurts them out of clumsiness. It is indispensable to be more thoughtful before taking action and to understand that the saying «Might is right» is not true.
