Hi -
 
I am still trying to catch up on all the list 
reading ... and wanted to ask you a question, 
Dharma ... Do you believe that planets impel?
 
I have always felt that astrology and planets 
are more in line with the physics/philosophy 
principal ... and excuse my inability to directly 
quote ... but it's something like:
 
"For every action there is an equal or corresponding 
reaction."
 
My first astrology teacher, Gloria Star, taught me 
that planets and natal charts are like maps ... 
YOU ARE and therefore, astrologically, you can be 
maped.  There is a point of arrival and a point of 
departure ... and those astrolgical points and 
how they "aspect" each other are something like 
coming into life with tools (personal qualities) and 
and whether those tools are compatible, work easily, 
etc.
 
As we move forward in life with these tools, and 
even with a good road map (natal chart and understanding) 
we make lots of decisions about how we emphasize and 
utilize parts of our personality (free will being 
exercised). [Note: Even with a good road map and the latest 
Am Auto Assoc assessment of road conditions ... we can't 
be sure of WHAT we will encounter, HOW we will experience 
it, or WHAT our response to the encounter will be.]
 
If a planet in our Universe moves, there is a gravitational 
pull and there may be a reaction such as the tide of the 
ocean going in or out.  If we move ... is there no less 
a movement?
 
It is hard in the scheme of things to be sure what 
"impels" what ... it's like the chicken or the egg 
exercise ...
 
Would it not be more accurate to say that there are 
symbolic connections ... maybe even parallel actions 
which are symbolic?  Maybe a planetary movement is 
a mirror of a persons movement?  Maybe a planet 
represents a life cycle ... it doesn't push us to 
do anything ... but the point at which we, rather 
a person, is set in motion ... with their individual 
life tools and exerts their free will ... that 
person has a mirror which can reflect a particular 
life map and the tendencies to do certain things or 
the propensity to encounter particular events ... 
karma ... dharma ... destiny ... free will ...
 
What is your thought?  I'm going to try to catch up 
on the posts.
