The Archetype of Tolerence
I’ve noted before, my dabbling in astrology . As stated before, I realize that not everyone approaches the subject with seriousness. I will say that, aside from predictive assumptions, the template does offer an interesting structure for observing the archetypal nature of personality.
Recent events being what they are, I thought I’d briefly note the basic symbolism of tolerance, optimism, and broad-minded philosophical speculation. Such attributes are related to the planet Jupiter. Jupiter “rules” (has an affinity to) the aforementioned traits. Jupiter is jovial, cooperative, and has faith in a higher purpose. Jupiter is not disgruntled, bitter, pessimistic, hateful, or uncompromising.
Taking into account these basic indicators of Jupiter’s symbolism in an individual’s horoscope (the configuration of planets at the time of one’s birth), it wasn’t surprising to me to note the horoscope of Charlie Kirk. At Charlie Kirk’s birth the planet Jupiter was closely aligned to the Sun. The dominant attributes in his personality were defined by Jupiter. Other key factors in his astrological chart are the planets Uranus and Neptune, accenting an independant, unique, rebellious and spiritual outlook. I think, to some degree, these powerful alignments coincide with the remarkable impact his assasination has had, even globally. Some people are the embodiment of the archetypes prominent in their personality.
I’ve noted in previous writings on astrology that Jupiter has an affinity to the free exchange of goods and services and the free exchange of ideas, all the things missing from the ruthless and bitter Jacobin caste.
The symbolism of Jupiter is something we could use more of — tolerance, optimism, and good will.
