Astrology and occultism

   The astrology is pseudoscientific, but an essence its, its spirit is hidden in depths - in esoteric doctrines, in occult doctrines. And without understanding it, really it is impossible to seize astrologging. The occultism in representation of contemporaries contacts a set of prejudices and superstitions though primary principle of the esoteric doctrine proclaims that is close to heart of any reasonable person: "The world is built under uniform laws, organized hierarchically and bringing into accord all with everything".
   In general the sphere of occult researches is the Hidden World which division is considered the world of visible forms and external subjects. Occultists investigate the hidden interrelations of things and phenomena inaccessible to direct sensory perception. Scientists within scientific researches consider only the phenomena and laws. Occultists in addition to it study the high Principles - the most general Ideas which are equally shown both in all phenomena, and in all laws. Occultists investigate rules of interaction hidden and visible, thin and dense, ethereal and rough, and investigate these relations specifically and substantially that allows them to make if necessary the operating and correcting impact on the world of external forms by means of actuating of hidden forces.
   As the esoteric discipline an astrology is some kind of axis of an occultism, such core of all esoteric science about the person. It is very important to understand it, without having distorted, without having deformed understanding: the astrology - at all not science, more precisely, it is special, esoteric science, in a root other than all known types of profanny, available to all, knowledge. The astrology is an explanatory model which use assumes existence at the astrologer of uncommon observation, latitudes of attitude, sharpness of thinking and a subtlety of intuition. It both the myth, and poetry, both an artistic image, and the scientific concept - all this at the same time. The astrologer is a certain mysterious alloy of the scientist, artist and priest. The astrology is a synthesis of science, mythology and art. In it (in fact the applied methods and on nature of vision of the world and influence on it) it is similar to medicine, psychotherapy, policy, priesthood and practical psychology of self-improvement. Profananation of sacral science in the Middle Ages led to degeneration of an astrology in astronomy - synthesis of mechanics, statistics and physics of a solid body. The astrology is a special intuitive art of penetration into intimate meanings of observed phenomena. Not only the astrology, but also original philosophy, and deep psychology are also esoteric. They are created and are applied for the sake of self-knowledge and self-development of people, they serve cause of an increment of spiritual experience of the personality and therefore are implanted in sacred occult knowledge.
   The astrology Esotericism doesn't mean its full closeness from the interested at all: everybody is different. Simply the candidate has to prove consistently and persistently the right for finding of the highest, secret knowledge which is actually equated to keys from the mechanism of management of the world and people. During studying of an astrology of people expands the vision, gets acquainted with tops and chasms, gradually clears up for itself sense of high ideas and difficult concepts. Only beginning right to see the world and coming nearer to comprehension of its laws, the searcher is capable to enter Spiritual Space, that is to find a direct communication channel with Hidden, as is the main condition of successful astrologging.
   Astrologging relies on purposefully developed intuitive abilities, and in this sense it no more "scientifically", than chiromancy or guessing on runes. But, strangely enough, it doesn't reduce efficiency of technologies and methods of an astrology at all. The intuition connected to exact calculation of celestial motion and clear analysis algorithms of a horoscope is extremely productive. The astrologer receives the correct answers on truly formulated questions. From here special style of the relations of the astrologer with the world. The astrologer loves the universe, each step he treats responsibly, and everything met - with limit care and enviable accuracy.
   For those who starts studying of an astrology, it is very important to understand from the very beginning basic limitation of narrow and mental, formal and scientific, superficial and objective understanding of Reality. To comprehend the world and the person, it is necessary to leave in other plane of perception: it is necessary to expand borders of the opportunities, to seize meditative technologies and dared to get into hiding places and treasuries Hidden. The astrological symbols organized in psychorhythmological cards (horoscopes) are concentration focuses the attention to which initiates entry of the astrologer into a meditative state and steady advance on semantic channels and semantic fields. Actually the astrology represents special type of "the philosophical car" which can make necessary information only in case the astrologer deeply and seriously during long studying and creative practice seized the meditative potential and a deep meaning of the used symbols.
   Astrologies other types of "philosophical cars" are close: mantic systems of Taro, I-jing, Futark, Saba, Numerology and others. But astrology is the above mantic systems, because it is much more difficult, and most importantly - is directly related to the physical progress of time actually connecting the processes of the Subtle World and the phenomena of objective reality.
   If to understand life as a dynamic range of values, as a mosaic stream of the symbols and meanings which are naturally replacing each other, it will become clear that "accident" of these or those combinations of astrological badges in a horoscope is illusory. The astrology allows to get in naturally structured ranks of meanings and to draw that invaluable quintessence which people call Wisdom from cycles of life experience.
   From all aforesaid it is clear that as esoteric discipline the astrology is vital both for education, and for treatment, and for the organization of life of people, for determination of new vital values and identification of optimum ways of their achievement. As a matter of fact tthe he astrology represents primary skilled substance of knowledge of God, synthesizing Science, Occultism and Religion. The science answers the questions "as" and "what", the Occultism answers the questions "why" and "because of what", the Religion is set immemorial "where" and "why". In a sense the interpretative role of an astrology in culture is absolutely necessary and isn't replaceable anything.
   It is possible to call an astrology the central discipline and axial cultural practice of mankind. She opens general relationships and specifically analyzes interaction between causal chains of events of the Thin and Dense Worlds. She organize systems of meanings of the events and reveals nonrandomnesses in contexts of General Sense. The astrology relies on idea of the Only Way traced to any living being and also on concept about the Purpose of General Development which is hierarchically organizing everyone and everything.
   Astrologers claim that any event and any organism have the purpose, the task, the role, the function, the vital program. Without understanding of sense of this movement, without idea of predefiniteness of existence of live psychosystem, without studying of dynamics of behavior of a vector of the purpose in principle research of an individual karma is impossible, so, subject studying of semantic interrelations between the studied subject of a horoscope and its environment is impossible.
   Than the person is more talented, than he more harmonious also is evolutionarily more wealthy, that more he corresponds to the general line of the development traced in an individual horoscope. The astrology claims that a karmic problem of subject of a horoscope always naturally co-directed to problems of a collectivity or an egregor, and available condition of the person of identically complete situation in which it is at the moment.
   In an astrology the universal, global models suitable for the analysis of any private phenomenon are used. The astrology as if accepts in itself all live objects, recoding the most important factors of their existence in signs of the special symbolical alphabet. Technologies and models of an astrology allow to broadcast easily and simply a reality of observed phenomenal life in language of high level, actually directing bridges of semantic interaction between the most various phenomena and subjects. Certainly, in an astrology there are various schools, various methods are used, however strict rules of a symbolical semantic translation from language of live systems on language of the abstract scheme are everywhere followed.
   In a sense the astrology is the initial model allowing to analyze a subject of any complexity with the maximum resolution as astrological classifications (planetary, house, zodiac) are quite natural because rely on the objects and the phenomena observed in the outside world. Keeping integrity of vision, astrologging allows to penetrate into as much as small subtleties of deep structure. It is clear that the mankind simply has no knowledge similar to an astrology!
   So, an astrology - science sacral, esoteric, the highest. To master its technologies and models, the seeker has to address to self-knowledge, to self-improvement and make every effort, mobilize all reserves of soul for implementation of consecutive and effective self-education. It is also necessary to notice that the esoteric discipline, besides the general acquaintance to it, demands from each looking for accurate delimitation of application of the received knowledge and delineation of the sphere of interests. In other words, the pupil has to formulate accurately everything for what he waits from studying of an astrology - otherwise sooner or later he will throw this knowledge because, remaining not applied, it will prove to it simply "too hard".
