Hellenistic vs Modern — Why Only Seven Planets?
from I Am Astrology Readings Podcast with Paul Heath
T Visions wants to know why Hellenistic astrology only uses seven planets. Paul breaks it down — the two luminaries, the planetary rulership chain, why the outer planets were added later when modern astronomers discovered them and astrologers tried to incorporate them. T Visions pushes back. We're evolving. Square wheels became round wheels. Why stick to the Ancients when we're moving forward? Paul's answer is clarifying — practicing Hellenistic doesn't mean ignoring everything else. It means having a foundation. And Spirit just confirmed it in real time.Takeaways:The seven visible planets form a balanced system in Hellenistic astrology — each ruling one or two signs symmetricallyUranus Neptune and Pluto were incorporated into modern astrology when they were discovered — they weren't part of the original systemPracticing Hellenistic astrology doesn't mean rejecting modern techniques — it means building on the most ancient foundation firstThe law of oneness means every system is speaking the same language — the tools connect when you understand the underlying principlesEvolution of knowledge doesn't always mean abandoning the old — sometimes the old is the deepest rootLinks referenced in this episode:iamastrologyreadings.comCompanies mentioned in this episode:IamastrologyreadingsPayPalVenmoCash AppSupport the mythic classroom: https://i-am-astrology-readings.captivate.fm/supportBook a Reading: https://i-am-astrology-readings.captivate.fm/book-reading#astrologyrideoftheday
