The most important question that everyone has to ask is why?
Why am I here? What is the purpose of my life and how can I go about following and fulfilling it?
There are many attempts made to answer this fundamental question, through religion, philosophy, psychology, science etc, but none of these are specific to you.
Only astrology can offer this type of answer because despite their protestations of uniqueness, those other disciplines have no mechanism for truly understanding someone’s own individual path in a way that is different from anyone else’s.
Through astrology we see our own natal chart, the patterns and paths we have to (and are meant to) follow in this life. We can even see particular time periods in our life when those paths are highlighted and the demands and rewards become greater.
For me Saturn and Neptune are the dominating planets.
I am a triple Capricorn with a 12th house Sun and Moon, a Venus/Saturn conjunction and an exact T square apex Neptune in the 9th house.
My life has been and always should have been an expression of these energies, but there was one particular period when they became very powerful.
This was around their conjunction in Capricorn in the late 1980s.
Neptune was conjunct my Sun in 1986 – 87, Saturn in 1989, (Uranus was also there in 1988).
This coincided with a three year spiritual retreat which changed my life and gave me a calling and a career which lasted for 30 years.
At that stage I had been studying astrology for a decade so I knew it was coming, although I was still taken by surprise by it. But I was aware enough to be able to respond and take full advantage of the opportunity, even though it meant walking away from what I laughingly referred to as my life up to that point.
This year Saturn and Neptune form another conjunction and this time it is in Aries, square to my Sun.
I have seen this coming for several years and have been mining a spiritual theme in preparation for it.
I am still open to being surprised by coming events, but my feeling is that this one will give me the greatest opportunity to bring together all the Saturn/Neptune themes in my life.
I am in my 70s, so there is a real sense of the need to take full advantage of this one because there is no question of my having a similar opportunity later on.
Over the last decade, I have had a growing sense of reincarnation and my own past lives, which was powerfully fuelled by meeting my true soulmate and giving up everything to move to the other side of the world to be with her.
This was accompanied by the revelation that the astrological method by which soulmates come together is that of Secondary Progressions.
From this discovery came the logical follow on that if this method worked, we could use it to identify when they were last together in a previous life.
Hence the science of Secondary Regressions came into being.
Over the last couple of years I have been developing this method and now have an extensive and extremely specific way of seeing how past life events and patterns are continuing to play out in our lives and our relationships this time round.
In fact it is through these methods that we can answer the why question.
Why have I been born with this particular astrological combination and who chose it for me?
The answer to that question is you chose it yourself in order to experience a life where there is a carry over of certain specific themes from past lives with other members of your soul group.
So to truly comprehend our current life patterns and relationships we have to look back to see where they have come from.
Over the last couple of years, I have done more than 100 past life reviews for clients, but I feel a tremendous Saturnian responsibility to share these discoveries with as many people as I can while I am still able to.
A past life review is a much more work intensive process for me than any of my other astrology offerings. Despite this I have kept my fees very low in order to try and make this method available to as many people as possible.
For that reason I have come up with the Past Life Introductory Review for AU$ 100 which gives you the main themes of a previous life with the opportunity to go on to take the full review (for a further AU$ 100) which examines your relationships with the other people around you in that life and who those people are in the current one.
Many people might ask why should I do take a past life review, what purpose would it serve in my current life.
One person who asked such a question was C.
C started with the introductory review and was so impressed that she wanted to go on to have the full one.
It feels important to mention that I had no information about any of the people in C’s life apart from their birth data.
I have taken excerpts from her full review here.
You have the Sun in Sagittarius in the 3rd house and the Moon in Aquarius in the 6th with a Virgo Ascendant.
The strongest pattern in your chart is the square between your Sun and Ascendant with the Uranus/Pluto conjunction rising.
This is particularly the case once we include other aspects to it, because this brings into play the quincunx with the Moon.
So if we are looking into a past life review, it makes sense to focus on this pattern.
By regression the Sun moves backwards through our chart at approximately one degree per year.
So we would be looking for when the regressed Sun formed a conjunction with your Ascendant and Pluto.
This takes us to the years 1882 – 86.
In July 1882, the regressed Sun was exactly conjunct your current life Ascendant.
Your regressed Mars was exactly conjunct your current Mercury.
Your regressed Venus was exactly sextile itself.
Your regressed Mercury was opposite your Saturn.
The chart itself has a T square based on an opposition between Mercury in the 4th house with Saturn in the 10th and an apex Moon in the 7th, suggesting a three way conflict between family, career and relationship.
Four years later the regressed Sun had moved on.
In August 1886 regressed Sun was exactly conjunct your current chart Pluto.
Your regressed Moon is square to your current Neptune.
Your regressed Mars is sextile itself.
This chart has some powerful aspects.
There is a T square involving the Moon opposite Venus and Jupiter with an apex Neptune.
There is an exact opposition between Mercury and Saturn.
So this period is clearly a very important one in your past life history.
I have a method of identifying someone’s birthdate in a past life which involves the regressed Sun forming an aspect with their 4th house ruler.
If we apply this to you, the regressed Sun would have been conjunct your Jupiter in October 1868, making you between 14 – 18 years old at the time of these events.
Using dowsing, I have found that you were born in Newport in the UK.
A Past Life Horary is the most important chart as it will give us the major themes of that life, particularly in terms of their relevance to our current situation.
When you request a review, this is the astrological equivalent of going for past life regression hypnotism.
We are accessing the deeply subconscious part of your brain that knows what your past life experiences were.
A horary for that moment will reproduce these in astrological code. The chart will describe your past life experience.
This is that chart.
In any horary, the chart ruler signifies the person asking the question so in a past life review it will describe you in that life.
As Pisces is rising, Neptune signifies you.
Neptune is in Pisces, so you would be female again in that life.
Neptune is right at the end of the sign so that would be a factor in that you were coming to the end of a particular experience.
Neptune is in the 1st house, so we are focused on your own personal expression.
Neptune is conjunct Saturn.
Saturn could be identifying a quality, in which case there is something that was restraining you, holding you back and stopping you from being able to express yourself clearly.
Saturn rising seems to suggest a life of austerity and reduced circumstances.
Neptune in Pisces in the 1st house conjunct Saturn seems to point to a form of spiritual retreat, perhaps enforced by your life circumstances.
Neptune is in very close square aspect with Mercury in Sagittarius in the 10th.
Mercury could be an employer, who would be male, who would have taken against you.
On the other hand, Mercury is the ruler of the 7th house, so could be your husband.
If this is the case, in Sagittarius in the 10th house, he would have left you and gone abroad in order to further his own career.
More information can be found by looking at your regressed solar return for these years.
This is a very intense solar return.
It falls on an exact Full Moon. The opposition falls between the 1st and 7th houses.
Venus is right on the Scorpio Ascendant with Mercury but is opposite Pluto in the 7th house.
It is clearly focused on relationships but there is serious conflict going on here.
Given your age at the time (nearly 14) and the regression chart for the year with an apex Capricorn Moon in the 7th house, I believe that you got involved with an older man and left home and school to be with him.
This would have naturally caused a scandal at the time.
Moving on to the return for 1886.
The Moon is in Sagittarius opposite Pluto in the 7th house suggesting the end of the relationship.
Mercury is opposite Saturn in the 9th house, so it’s looking like your man left you to go abroad for business reasons.
The Moon/Pluto is part of a Kite with a Grand Trine involving Venus in the 4th house.
This says you returned to your family who welcomed you back.
The other part of the Grand Trine is a Jupiter/Uranus conjunction in the 12th house.
Jupiter and Uranus are also the apex of a T square from Mercury and Saturn.
I believe that this whole experience pushed you towards some kind of religious awakening.
Going further with your regressions.
Six years later, at the age of 24, your regressed Sun was conjunct your current Uranus.
Your solar return for that year.
The Sun is in the 9th house opposite a tight Neptune/Pluto conjunction and forming a T Square with an apex Jupiter in Pisces in the 11th house.
At this stage in your life you went to live in a spiritual community.
I believe you stayed there and lived on until your mid 50s.
There is a method of working out who these people are in your current life based on the Past Life Horary chart.
This involves looking at the house rulership of the planet concerned and/or the sign position to see if it resonates with any major placement in one of your current life family’s charts.
In the earlier part of the review, I mentioned the following.
“In any horary, the chart ruler signifies the person asking the question so in a past life review it will describe you in that life.
As Pisces is rising, Neptune signifies you.
Neptune is in Pisces, so you would be female again in that life.
Neptune is in very close square aspect with Mercury in Sagittarius in the 10th.
Mercury is the ruler of the 7th house, so could be your husband.
If this is the case, in Sagittarius in the 10th house, he would have left you and gone abroad in order to further his own career.”
Let’s try and identify Mercury.
As ruler of the 4th and 7th house, this man would be either your parent (4th) or a partner (7th).
There is only one of these with a placement in the later degrees of Sagittarius.
S has Venus at 24 Sagittarius, in square to Uranus and Pluto, a combination that would fit with the idea of taking a young lover and abandoning her to go abroad.
Let’s regress his chart back to July 1882 to see if he was there.
S’ regressed Sun is exactly sextile his current chart Jupiter.
His regressed Moon is exactly quincunx his current Sun.
We don’t have a birthtime for S but it’s possible his regressed Moon could be exactly conjunct his current Jupiter, it certainly is conjunct his regressed Jupiter.
His regressed Mars is trine his current Jupiter.
His regressed Ascendant is exactly sextile his current Saturn.
All of these indications put him in your life back then. The fact that most of them involve his Jupiter definitely points to S as that man in your past life.
Let’s have another look at the horary.
Neptune (you) is closely conjunct Saturn in Pisces in the 1st house.
Saturn is the ruler of the 11th house so would be someone (probably older than you) in that spiritual community (possibly the head of it) that welcomed and mentored you.
I feel that the only person in your group whose chart resonates with all this is your mother
We don’t have a birthtime for your Mum but a chart cast for noon gives her the Moon at 28 Sagittarius.
It is also a very important placement in her chart as it is part of a T square involving an opposition with Saturn and an apex Neptune.
To check whether your mother was this person who welcomed you into the community we need to regress her chart back to that date.
Her regressed Sun is exactly sextile her current chart Moon.
Her regressed Venus is exactly trine her current Moon.
Her regressed Moon forms a tight square with her regressed Saturn, recreating the Moon/Saturn opposition of her current chart.
I believe this is a clear indication that your mother was your past life spiritual mentor.
There are two other aspects in the horary that Neptune (you) have, a trine with Jupiter in the 4th house and a sextile with Uranus in the 3rd.
This indicates a parent and a sibling who welcomed you back home after you eloped to be with Mercury.
Jupiter is ruler of the 10th house, so could be your father.
With the Moon in Cancer, this seems a likely connection.
If we regress him back to 1882.
Your father’s regressed Sun is closely square to his current Saturn.
His regressed Moon is exactly conjunct his current Saturn.
His regressed Venus is exactly quincunx his noon chart Ascendant.
This definitely places him as your parent in that life, particularly as when you returned home his regressed Sun would have been square to his Jupiter.
My feeling is that this parent was a mother.
Your sister in that life was indicated by Uranus at 27 Taurus in the horary.
The only person on your list who has significant placements in the last decanate of Taurus is your husband P.
If we regress P’s chart back to 1882.
P’s regressed Sun is exactly opposite his current Pluto and square his Mercury.
His regressed Ascendant is closely conjunct his current Sun.
So this puts your husband as your sister in that life.
This is your birthchart for that life.
The Sun is in the 9th house of higher studies.
But the most powerful pattern is the T square with the opposition between the Moon in the 1st house and Uranus in the 7th indicating the unconventional and scandalous relationship with that man.
This opposition projects is trine and sextile Pluto in the 4th house, showing the family upheaval that it caused.
The opposition points to an apex Neptune which shows the resulting move to a spiritual community.
In 1882 when you went off with this man, transit Uranus was conjunct your Venus.
When you left home to join the community in 1886, transit Saturn was in your T square opposite your Moon.
You died in 1923, aged 55 with transit Pluto opposite your Ascendant.
This has been a fascinating review with some interesting family connections to your current life.
On reading the review, C wrote back
“THIS IS INCREDIBLE!
The current life connections are really amazing.
Mum (who you placed as the head of the spiritual community) was incredibly pious and devoted to her religious understanding. Not just going to church, but doing community work, going to silent retreats, one-on-one retreats, bible study, and teaching newcomers about her faith/religion. I used to ask her why she became a mother and not a nun, and she said she had always had the burning need to be a mother. She didn’t believe in past lives, but wow, I can see it here in the regressions and in the way she was when she lived this lifetime that being devoted to faith was so ingrained in her soul.
Dad (who you’ve placed as my mother in the previous life) was a very forgiving person. Of all my family, he is the one who would have welcomed the disgraced daughter home and to hell with what anyone else thought. Family was most important.
P being my sister in this previous life is also so sensible. He and Dad got along so well, always. We’d often go on holidays, the 3 of us, and it was easy. It makes sense as to why this was a natural thing to do.
S is the most amazing (and yet, of course he is) connection. We met in this life (in our 20s) in the most bizarre of circumstances, immediately connecting as if we’d known each other forever. After we’d met, a heap of stories came to me that I wrote and took to a writing workshop where they were eviscerated! LOL! But they were about Past Lives, which was a stretch too far for the teacher. S put me onto a deeply personal spiritual journey to find out about myself and what he’d triggered within me. We are still best of friends; not more because his view was that our relationship would be ruined by real life. I would have expected that I’d have argued against that, instead there was a deep truth to what he said and I accepted it. So the mirroring is quite incredible. In the Past Life story I wrote, I ended it by this life being a time when I needed to learn to live without him by my side… but maybe there have been more than one life where I needed to do that.
You’ve floored me with this. Thank you so very much. It’s a fascinating gift that you have, being able to tease this out of charts. Thanks for sharing it with the world.”
The same people turning up in similar roles seems to occur consistently through many past lives and is clearly identified by the method.
With a horary cast for the moment a past life is requested, the chances of the ruler being in positive or negative signs is 50/50.
In my experience they have been placed in the same gender as the client about 90% of the time, therefore suggesting that people are far more likely to return as the same sex, a fact which also underlies the correctness of my method.
I would also say that at least 90% of my past life clients have found that the review strongly resonates with them, even down to the place where that life occurred.
Many like C have confirmed powerful similar times that they have with the same members of their soul group in their current life.
They also say that the review has given them a different perspective and more understanding of their connections with family members.
Why not join this growing band of people who have this advantage by taking up a Past Life Review?
Who knows with the upcoming Saturn/Neptune conjunction in the past life horary, you too might find your Dad was your Mum and your Mum was a nun.
