Introduction

This page provides an introduction to the main asteroids, the Kuiper Belt asteroids and Dwarf Planets, objects in the Oort Cloud, and how to explore the astrological nature of a newly discovered planetary body.

Exploring the Astrology of newly discovered

Asteroids and Dwarf Planets

The rapidly increasing rate of discovery of new planets in our solar system and of other astronomical objects in our universe is a direct statement of humanity's rapidly expanding consciousness occurring on Earth. Life on any planet uniquely evolves in a harmonic environment created by the planets and their interacting orbital cycles occurring in a star system. Thus we are not separate from these planetary resonances, nor from their cycles, no more than we are separate from the environment of Earth herself. These resonances drive our biological rhythms and express through the very nature of our entire mental, emotional and physical lives. To explore the astrological nature of the astronomical reality in which we live is to explore our very own consciousness—and this is the nature of astrology.

The discovery of new planetary bodies in the far reaches of our solar system is a recognition of more transcendent facets of ourselves becoming consciously available for humanity to acknowledge, explore, work with, and be responsible for. To explore the astronomical and astrological nature of these planets is to seek to know our selves at a far deeper level then we have known possible.

Like all planetary bodies, when discussing the asteroids and dwarf planets in astrology, we are exploring the synthesized mental, emotional, and physical facets of ourselves—our "astrology." Although it requires astrological research over a lengthy period to truly validate and hone in on the astrological nature of a newly discovered planet or asteroid, there are several things to explore that can give us initial insight into the astrological nature of any new astronomical body.

These are outlined in "Guidelines on How to Explore the Astrology

of Newly Discovered Objects in Our Solar System."

The Main Belt Asteroids

There are nearly 400,000 asteroids that lie in a belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. Several thousand have been given names. The four primary asteroids are Ceres, Juno, Pallas and Vesta. Because there should be a planet in an orbit between Mars and Jupiter based on the harmonic distribution of the planetary orbits, it is believed the asteroids are either formative material that did not coalesce into a planet or they are the fragmented pieces of a destroyed planetary body once situated between Mars and Jupiter.

The primary asteroids are most often associated with how we interrelate in the world, our stance in life, and with emotionally fragmented areas of self requiring integration. The 2nd chakra (bio-energy, neurological centre) is generally the most fragmented and disintegrated bio-energy centre of humans. It is like a gyroscope creating balance in life. The energy pattern radiating from this chakra attracts and filters the type of relations we attract into our lives.

The Main Belt Asteroid Orbits create a cocoon around the inner planets—Mars, Earth, Venus and Mercury.

Asteroids reveal issues at some level that need to be integrated within us all. Disintegrated asteroid issues fragment and scatter our energy outward in dysfunctional ways in the world. Integration of the issues embodied by the asteroids leads to the ability to interrelate in the world from wholeness, integrity and wisdom. The asteroids significantly fill in the missing pieces to the astrological chart, particularly when exploring aspects with other planets.
