- Vic DiCara: 11:39:50
- how many cardinal points are there?
- Jayananda Das: 11:40:17
- 4
- Vic DiCara: 11:40:32
- east, west, north and south
- Jayananda Das: 11:40:37
- yes
- Vic DiCara: 11:40:39
- which house is which?
- Jayananda Das: 11:41:06
- east 1st, west 7th, south 10th, and north 4th
- Vic DiCara: 11:41:15
- brilliant!
- Jayananda Das: 11:41:18
-
- Vic DiCara: 11:39:33
- ok the house BELOW the cardinal point will support the cardinal point
- Vic DiCara: 11:39:44
- and the house ABOVE the cardinal point will erode it
- Vic DiCara: 11:45:17
- the first house is the physical self
- Vic DiCara: 11:45:54
- the second house is physically BELOW the first – it gives what we need for physical sustenence and growth: money, for example
- Vic DiCara: 11:45:59
- the twelfth takes it away – expenses
- Jayananda Das: 11:46:07
- Awh!
- Jayananda Das: 11:46:12
- wait
- Jayananda Das: 11:46:40
- give me that same examples for the 4th house, and the 7th house, and 10th house.
- Vic DiCara: 11:46:46
- no!
- Vic DiCara: 11:46:48
- because
- Vic DiCara: 11:47:00
- it is not apropriate for the 4th and the 10th!
- Vic DiCara: 11:47:15
- there is no house below the 4th
- Vic DiCara: 11:47:25
- and every house is below the tenth
- Jayananda Das: 11:47:39
- i meant like give the same example for the supportive house and the disppitated house for the 4th and 10th house
- Vic DiCara: 11:48:06
- there are no supporting and dissipating houses for the fourth and tenth
- Jayananda Das: 11:48:17
- oh!
- Vic DiCara: 11:48:32
- this supporting/disspating above/below thing can only apply to the two cardinal points east and west
- Vic DiCara: 11:48:35
- only to the horizons
- Vic DiCara: 11:48:49
- because only they have neighboring houses above and below them
- Jayananda Das: 11:48:47
- OMG i cant believe i missed itt
- Vic DiCara: 11:48:51
- hahaha
- Jayananda Das: 11:48:59
- now i see (a) The house to the East will cause the cornerstone house to become
more tangible and more self-focused.
(b) The house to the West will case the cornerstone house to become more
intangible and group-focused.
- Vic DiCara: 11:49:08
- brilliant!
- Vic DiCara: 11:49:15
- good work
- Vic DiCara: 11:49:31
- so the first house is the physical self
- Jayananda Das: 11:49:36
- yes yess
- Vic DiCara: 11:49:40
- the second house gives stuff that supports the physical self
- Vic DiCara: 11:49:57
- the twelfth takes away stuff that supports the physical self (for example, spiritual knowledge)
- Vic DiCara: 11:50:03
- then you have the 7th house
- Vic DiCara: 11:50:09
- it is death, endings, and other people
- Vic DiCara: 11:50:22
- the sixth house (below the seventh) gives things that support death – disease
- Vic DiCara: 11:50:27
- support endings – quarrels
- Vic DiCara: 11:50:32
- support OTHERS – enemies
- Vic DiCara: 11:50:53
- the eighth house (above the seventh) takes away things that support death – it creates longevity
- Vic DiCara: 11:51:20
- it takes away endings by giving one metaphysical understanding of the interconnectedness of all time phases – that ends are only beginnings
- Vic DiCara: 11:51:38
- it is also sexuality, which in many ways is the exploitation of others
- Vic DiCara: 11:51:46
- make sense?
- Jayananda Das: 11:51:55
- omg yes
- Vic DiCara: 11:52:16
- then we have the tenth house, which is the public self
- Vic DiCara: 11:52:23
- to the east of it is the 11th house. so things from the public move towards us, we enjoy rewards, profits, and social benefits in the 11th house
- Vic DiCara: 11:52:56
- to the west of the 10th is the 9th house. so things from the public move towards others. we endeavor to act in moral ways that are beneficial to others – that is the essence of morality, and religion in the 9th house
- Vic DiCara: 11:53:34
- ok?
- Jayananda Das: 11:53:51
- yes, exactly what i was expecting you to clarify to me
- Vic DiCara: 11:55:38
- ok the fourth house...
- Vic DiCara: 11:56:25
- it is the place of treasures, emotions, things that carry us
- Jayananda Das: 11:56:55
- mhm
- Vic DiCara: 11:57:01
- to the east of the 4th house is the 3rd house… it is where treasures and emotions and such move towards us – in the third house is our ambition to aquaire such things for ourselves
- Vic DiCara: 11:57:46
- to the west of the 4th house is the 5th… is is where treasures and emotions move towards others – in the 5th house we want to share our inner treasures with others and we develop the intellect and creativity to do exactly that
- Jayananda Das: 11:58:12
- (awh I see )
- Vic DiCara: 11:58:25
- this is how the ROOT meanings of the four cardinal directions branch out to form the PRIMARY meanings of all the 12 houses
- Vic DiCara: 11:58:31
- cool, right?
- Jayananda Das: 11:58:38
- yesss
