Sabian Symbols: An unexpected thunderstorm

An unexpected thunderstorm
An unexpected thunderstorm
This universal idea is best expressed through planets in

Aquarius 2 (1° - 2°)

ALL LIFE IS EPHEMERAL
​Even though we want to cement our lives into secure structures, nature always wins in the end
"Submission to unforeseen and uncontrollable forces"
Nature is a constant existential challenge to the works of people; fires, floods and winds tear down our strongest buildings in moments, and time itself erodes everything eventually. By this fact we are reminded not only how small and insignificant we are and how magnificent is any creation that stands against Nature for a while, yet also we remember the need to develop inwardly the strength to cope with it all.

AN UNEXPECTED THUNDERSTORM

Accident

An unexpected thunderstorm
Picture
With optimism and confidence, setbacks will always further our ends

Civilisation has developed to protect us against the cruelty of Nature, yet in the end we all have to take precautions against accidents, and quicken ourselves in the presence of such primitive forces as thunderstorms. The storm image is appropriate on the psychological level too, as society also tries to mitigate emotional pain and inconvenience as much as possible.

Nonetheless, it is more or less certain that we will be thoroughly inconvenienced in our lifetime by the shifting patterns of events in which we are obliged to participate. The appropriate attitude is one of alertness rather than complete temperamental instability. It is idiocy to shout threats at the thunder.

In all the strands of a normal life – career, relationship, spirituality and family – we will likely have to come to terms with the loss of love, of position, of health and of our hopes – often as a result of an unexpected, unwelcome, forceful or stormy event.

It is better to recognise the positive aspect of crisis. Without it, opportunities for maximum self-development are rare, and the bonding convergence of relationships is absent. Life needs crisis to deepen.

The masterly approach is to seek out such events and ‘chase the storms’, so to harvest the juice they contain. With the right mind of optimism and confidence, we can call up our genius to create opportunity out of disaster, and use setbacks, and even catastrophe, to further our ends.

Accidents by their very nature are unexpected – but only as to their timing and particularities. They are entirely predictable as to their inevitability. So we can prepare for them, train ourselves in how to respond to them – and take full responsibility for their implications in our lives. Nature’s potentialities lie beyond our jurisdiction – so we must develop strategies for how to act when we are not in control.

At an advanced level of understanding, we see that all control is illusion anyway. Everything we plan is subject to modification, and the final mystery of life is accessed only through surrender.
Thunderstorms, by their very unpredictability and awesome power, help us find our way towards this subtle, counter-intuitive comprehension.

Advanced Level: Elven Star Analysis

​Although we can find relevance in some way to all 360 degrees, each degree resonates particularly, and mysteriously, with the 6 other points of its Elven Star and clues, from the 7 Words System, and the Sabian Journey, are shown in the text below. This second degree of the Expression "Balance" is the Contrasting principle.

The scope of Aquarius 2 is "Submission to unforeseen and uncontrollable forces", and its means of expansion is Cancer 6, "Potentials expanded through ruthless self-honesty". Its preferred path, Sagittarius 10, "Listening to criticism and clues", leads to its principle challenge, found in Taurus 14, "Self-sponsored emergence within a community setting".

Awareness of its spiritual purpose is described in Libra 19, "Participation in collective new understandings", which generates the feedback found in Pisces 23, "Notice how people suffer and live in confusion" and thus the evolutionary gateway offered by Leo 27, "Being renewed moment by moment". 
​
​(This list will differ slightly from your Elven Star points unless your degree is exact, such as Taurus 15:00 not Taurus 15:39)
