The zodiac and our body’s physiology

Who would think that the sun would be so influential with the heaven’s constellations so very far from planet earth. The sun  plays such a vital role in distributing various types of energy activating vibrations that effect how we feel, relate to others and the world around us. Is it any wonder why the ancient Egyptians or Kemites venerated and paid homage to the sun god Amen-Ra.  Further more how is it that these constellations within the sun’s ecliptic not only affect our moods but our physiology as well.  We are but a microcosm of the macrocosm.

Every zodiac constellation dominates, and governs a particular part of our physiology; not only are these zodiac signs responsible for our mental, and spiritual depositions, including character but you will find a common denominator between the zodiac sign’s characteristics, and the body’s parts, and or systems including circulation, reproductive system, digestive system and so forth. This  metaphysical science was originally a part of Astronomy.  How it became separated... totally stupid is another discussion.
 Each zodiac constellation supports the next until it is a continuous circle of 360 degrees. 

The zodiac begins with

 Aries the ram which we know as the head of the zodiac so to say it represents the self this signs governs the physical head.

Taurus the bull supports Aries the head by governing the neck, and shoulders. No one stands in the way of a charging bull.

Gemini the twin; this sign of duality is the owner of the body that exist in pairs such as the lungs arms chest, supporting the previous sign’s domain.

Cancer ruled by the moon has dominion over the stomach, and breast; note the previous sign rules the chest of the male body.

Leo the lion; The heart is where courage lies hence the heart of a lion.  Leo also governs the small of the back, the part responsible for good posture back bone and courage are attributes of Leo.

Virgo the virgin; analytical and discerning Virgo has a propensity for detail.  With Virgo it is the pit of the stomach where feelings lie; is it any wonder that this constellation governs the bowels and intestines?

Libra the scales is about balance therefore the kidneys and liver is the focus here along with the veins that run through our entire body carrying our precious life force containing all that is needed for the entire body to function efficiently and effectively.

Scorpio’s still waters run deep with secrets and mysteries.  It is the reproductive organs that are governed by Scorpio.

Sagittarius the archer symbolized as a centaur half man half horse governs the thighs. The horse’s strength comes from its legs.

Capricorn the goat a mountain animal climbing rocky terrain its strength comes from the knees. Capricorn governs the knees and circulation. Circulation runs throughout the entire body along with the life force.

Aquarius the water bearer maintains the back and legs supporting the previous signs.

Pisces the fish, up stream down stream.  Opposite motion as the feet are left and right hence Pisces has dominion over the feet.     

As above so below we are part of the cosmos and their attributes reflect not only in our spiritual make up but our physiology as well.  Each zodiac sign is supportive of the other.

Africa's Stellar Gnosis

Our galactic sun 4.5 billion years old is a medium sized star sum 93,026,724 miles away from the earth at a temperature of 9,900 Fº degrees.  This sun is a stellar (G) type with a magnitude of 4.83.  Such a star absorbs strong metallic lines in its spectrum, not to mention the solar flares generating geomagnetic storms that sometime disrupt communications satellites and even our techno toys here on planet earth making life somewhat miserable for us earthlings.  In astrology the significant “other” of astronomy the sun is considered the giver of life representing our consciousness.  It is our personal power, the self, the ego, the pride.  The sun represents creativity, vitality and health. The sun is positioned within the 12 zodiac constellations traversing them at 30º degrees every thirty days intensifying the vibration that particular zodiac constellation emanates.   Zodiac is a Greek word meaning circle of animals.  In the Zulu creation story, or genesis story it was said that the animals came from the star constellations.

The sun is our life force; imagine if our sun no longer existed or simply refused to function; providing warmth and illumination chasing away that which brings darkness whether it be the frigid cold or fear.  How would the crops survive?  

For thousands of years our ancestors and other cultures paid homage to the sun for its many life sustaining gifts.  Their Health practices included the sun’s healing properties to optimize health. 

Our ancient ancestors were aware of the pineal gland’s spiritual connection to the third eye, or what is commonly referred to as the black dot and how the sun’s energy activates it elevating our consciousness especially during meditation, and other metaphysical practices.  The ancient people of Kush and the Kemites were known for their spirituality around the globe as the name Ethiopia was a Greek name which translated to “people of the sun” while another Greek name for Egypt translated to “people kissed of the sun”.  That is how many of the Greek philosophers referred to the great teachers of ancient Kemit as they sat at there feet leaning of the advanced sciences of astronomy at the temple of Lunu “place of pillars”. The Arabs referred to this place as “Ain Shans the well of the sun”. It was the Greeks who named it Heliopolis temple of the sun as they paid homage to the great fiery orb in the sky.

The ancestors referred to this celestial body as Ra, Helios, Sol, Amen-Ra, Olofi, and many more.  The ancient Kemites were not the only ethnic group to pay homage to the sun.  From Africa’s east coast to her west coast, and from the Ganges to the Euphrates Rivers and continent to continent homage was paid to the sun.  When we think of the Sun god automatically we think of Ra or Amen-Ra.  However Alkabulan / ancient Africa consisted of numerous Sun Gods and Goddesses and other sun deities.

Wai, this sun deity of Zaire, and central Africa was believed by hunters to control the animals.

Asis was another sun deity of the Suk and Pokut in Kenya and Uganda.  A number of ethnic groups in the Congo, and Tanzania acknowledged a sun god known as Iruva.  The people of Cameroon referred to this deity as Loba and paid homage at sunset to assure he would appear again at sunrise.  In addition to Ra who was depicted by a sun disk and falcon in Kemit / ancient Egypt in the Nile delta was another sun god representing the sun’s more destructive power and extreme heat known as “Mahes” depicted in the form of a lion; hence Leo the lion in astrology.

 On the coast of West Africa the Dogon of Mali who where colonized by the French lived along the cliffs of Bandiagara not far from Timbuktu.  They possessed extremely advanced astronomical knowledge.  The Dogon knew Sirius was the brightest star in the night sky, and it had two companion stars (Digitaria star) and the female (Sorghum star) the second companion star.  When Digitaria is closest to Sirius it is the brightest, when it is further it gives off a twinkling effect. The Dogon are also aware of the rings of Saturn and the many moons of Jupiter. And least we not forget the Yoruba of southwest Nigeria who referred to the sun as Olofi and have sacred rituals performed at sun rise prior to any rites of passage, or ritual.

Our ancestors and numerous cultures knew the sun’s power and how it was responsible for elevating the spiritual energy referred to by many names, mana, ase, chi, and prana      

The ancients knew of the metaphysical effects their stellar star had on man, plant, animal, food, water, mineral, and the earth itself.

Ashanti Kings and other rulers along Africa’s Ivory Coast were abundantly rich with alloys of gold and brass, but mostly gold.  Gold was not only a symbol of physical wealth but metaphysically this alloy contained a projective energy whose element was fire associated with the sun emanating great spiritual energy considered a source of wealth as well. 

Many Kemetic / Egyptian ornaments and artifax contained precious gems, alloys, and crystals because of the spiritual vibrations that emanated from them that were similar to the sun’s vibrations.  For example clear quartz was another invaluable gift from the earth that not only projected energy but was receptive as well, influenced by both the moon and sun.  Citrine was worn to remove fear present in nightmares, hence its projective energies of fire; fire giving illumination.  Amber another gift from the earth associated with the “Akasha or Akashic records” better known as ancestral memories, or DNA markers whose element is the sun was worn for spiritual development. 

A stone all too often taken for granted is the zircon crystal, or zirconium which possesses a fiery vibration associated with the alloy gold. 

The most adorned stone by the Kemites was the Topaz because of its association to the sun god Amen-Ra.  Another stone of the Kemites that was associated with the alloy gold was tigers-eye a stone of invaluable and innumerable properties also associated with the sun. 

And last but not least, South Africa’s precious gem the diamond this precious gem vibrates a projective energy possessing a fiery quality whose element is the sun of course. Many Africans have lost their lives over this precious stone, and many lives have been ruined because of the wealth, and status it generates.  Is it any wonder so much blood has been spilt over this gem?  

An ancient wisdom echoes from Africa as she was the giver of civilization birthing the sciences of astronomy, medicine, art and mathematics.  Socrates, Plato, Herodotus, and many other Greek philosophers and many cultures sat within her temple walls digesting and absorbing the stellar gnosis of ancient Africa.  None surpassed her in spirituality as she was blessed by the sun.
