Sun-Biquintile-Venus
(Transit Sun → Natal Venus)
Avelom Podvodnyi. Aspects
Sun’s biquintile: A promising direction for eradicating crime lies in the universal application of mercy. This aspect directs a person’s initiative in the planet’s spheres toward lower and imperfect forms of life, which on a low level manifests primarily as instructions and directives imposed authoritatively, yet with poor understanding of the essence of the matter. In reality, this aspect indicates that a person can take constructive part in the issues of lower life, and moreover, such life requires their volitional impulses and initiatives—but only provided there is genuine understanding and not merely selfish interest. Then the individual can achieve much, and in doing so, not only their own vitality will grow, but also their human essence will manifest. Debilitation of the Sun signifies strong dictatorial tendencies, a propensity to disregard the complexity of inner antagonisms and problems of lower life, and an emphasized separation of it from oneself as evolutionarily higher; Debilitation of the planet indicates the complexity of lower life issues (including in corresponding spheres) and the strength of one’s own egoism. Harmony between the Sun and the planet signifies the temptation of purely selfish, easy consumption of lower life forms, which will offer no noticeable resistance and, on the contrary, will initially be only delighted by any attention from such a lofty companion, even if he sprinkles them with dill and spices them with garlic in a quite obvious manner. For example, a harmonious biquintile between Sun and Moon provides good understanding of domestic animals and affectionate relationships with them, either urban type (“beloved dog sleeping with owner on the same bed”) or rural type (“eat, eat, little pig, until autumn when we’ll slaughter you”). Biquintile of Venus: The philosopher goes deep, the politician rises upward, while the average person splashes about in a puddle of irresponsibility. This aspect brings in the planet’s spheres a socialized attitude toward lower forms of life—that is, the person here is under strong influence of social stereotypes, which on a low level has rather positive meaning (for example, the attitude “children and animals should not be mistreated”), while at higher levels it may produce strong snobbery, that is, pronounced separation and distancing (for instance, the disdainful gaze of a city dweller toward provincial life, or of an economically developed country toward a backward one). Deep work with this aspect, especially biquintiles to planets of the third and fourth levels, provides insight into social progress within karmic programs and the evolutionary development of humanity (which is not simple, since these processes are often directed oppositely); at an intermediate level, the person will be interested in the lives of various social strata, especially lower ones, their characteristic problems and contradictions—humanity. In its harmonious variant, this aspect grants tact, charm, and ease of understanding in communication with lower social classes, perception of beauty in subhuman life forms (animals, plants, etc.), and natural joy in interacting with them (within the planet’s spheres); when afflicted, it brings various emotions—including love and hatred—toward lower life forms, during which, in any case, one should primarily seek expression of the humanity embedded within the individual.
