Libra’s rulers connect 5 other signs in a “six-pointed star of evolution”
Libra, together with five other signs—Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Capricorn, Aquarius—creates one of the “six-pointed star of evolution”, where each sign is connected by Libra’s Orthodox, Esoteric and Hierarchical ruling planets: Venus, Uranus, Saturn.
Libra is at the point of balance in one of the six-pointed stars of evolution, with its three ruling planets peculiarly concerned with the expression of the Christ consciousness in the world
. The rays of these three planets are all upon the first major line of force, the line of will or power and of purpose and visioned goal
. This is expressed by Bailey as the occult version of the Christian trinity, driven by the first three principles (and rays) of Will, Love-Wisdom, Intelligence:
- Uranus, 7th Ray of Ceremonial Magic. The Father—the Source of Duality who perceives the end from the beginning. Relation.
Spiritual consciousness: Intuition to Inspiration - Venus, 5th Ray of Mind. The Son of Mind—who includes. Inclusion.
Egoic consciousness: Intellect to Intuition - Saturn, 3rd Ray of Intelligence. The Holy Spirit—who knows. Mind.
Human Consciousness: Instinct to Intellect
It is for this basic reason—founded upon the above triple relationship—that Libra is the “point of balance” in the zodiac. (EA 248)
