Natural Rulers

Shabbat shalom. It is Sun Cult oppressor behavior to assign single planetary stereotypes as the “natural ruler” of any human culture, and if you’re out here continuing to say “Saturn rules Jews,” I see who you’re working for.

WITHIN Jewish culture, the People are identified with the Moon and the Divine with the Sun — in accordance with, you know, fundamentals of astrology — and all the lights play their part. As they do for… everyone.

This is why we use a lunar calendar, for instance.

Meanwhile, Roman dudes who self-identified as the Sun and named solar months after themselves are like, “Yeah, those exhausting people on the margins, they’re the opposite of the Sun,” and everybody who accepts their gold-plated dildo culture as law passes it down the centuries.

Now is as good a time as any to state my position on Hellenistic astrology in general after a year and a half or so of study, which is that I find it TECHNICALLY powerful but philosophically and spiritually untrustworthy, in keeping with my general views about Hellenistic things.

My mistrust has to do with the development of universalizing philosophical abstractions to explain reality, which is a project that became necessary to empires once they started attempting to assimilate localized land-based cultures.
