Obtaining needed books is no problem for them. Tends toward paradoxical preaching. Rarely religious. Believes more in science. Linguist, programmer, foreign language teacher.
Francesca Sakoyan. Planets in Houses
The ways of the Lord are inscrutable until they are walked. This person has complicated relations with the ideal “I,” and this ideal does not always demand adherence to standard, socially approved virtues. Sometimes the ideal excuses actions that seem clearly bad and even appears to mock conventional expressions of conscience and duty, while at other times it demands seemingly insignificant things; later, it may turn out that this was inappropriate. Here, the developed ideal includes a striving to grasp what seems completely incomprehensible, and to materialize plans and objects that have always been considered subtle, ephemeral, and almost inaccessible—not merely to use, but even to clearly perceive. Here, the ideal “I” possesses a fine sense of humor and the ability to view things unconventionally, including philosophical generalizations and religious concepts; the process of integration brings forth these qualities in the individual themselves. Generally, the presence of Chiron, and especially the outer planets, in the ninth house indicates direct intervention by a higher egregor in the formation of the ideal “I,” and the person must listen very carefully to its indications, remembering that here one can feel the direct breath of destiny. Relationships with spiritual teachers may sometimes be paradoxical; teaching methods may resemble those used in Zen Buddhism, but chances for chaos are greater than for enlightenment, and one must learn to remain patient while gathering the remnants of the former worldview into a new mosaic and trying to understand at least something within it. In foreign countries, there may be astonishing events or ones that are profoundly disorienting, whose meaning will become clear only much later. Attitude toward unfamiliar cultures is one of curiosity, and deeper engagement may bring unexpected achievements—both outwardly (clever synthesis of different cultures) and inwardly (a leap in evolutionary development). When integrated, there emerges a very interesting approach to foreign cultures, a fresh perspective, and unique interpretations.
