astrological key to the Secret Doctrine

Feb 04, 2009 03:47 AM

Dear Fulton
If you want to get some deeper insights into the Astrological key to the Secret Doctrine and the 7 keys that must be turned 7 times go to this website. There is also a wealth  of information  on the importance of cycles and numbers. This website is not for the beginner and demands a lot of focus to understand.
This man, Stephen Pugh has spent an entire lifetime working with HPB's work.
If you are closed off to the Alice Bailey teachings don't waste your time since he cross references both with excruciating detail and insights. His work is parreled with the works of a true  visionary artist Lynda Vugler and is a feast for the eye and soul for any artistic and architectural types.
Sincerely Duane

Subject: Theos-World Re: 4th sub-race


One thing that puzzles me in the midst of all of this discussion is 
the comments that HPB made in regards to the "Seven Keys" which must 
be turned in order to understand the SD correctly. In this case, I 
refer to specifically the key of astrology.

In the "Divine Plan", Barborka touched upon the Yugas and the 
procession of the Equinoxes. Where is the astrological research that 
validates the timing of the races / sub-races, etc.? The only 
specific day that I recall having been specifically mentioned to us 
is the battle in the Bhagavad Gita, along with its astrological 
configuration.

Also, in relation to this question, any ideas on the relations of 
Subba Row's article on the "12 Signs of the Zodiac" to the subject at 
hand?

Thoughts?

Joe
