它的原理主要是根據(jù)新柏拉圖主義,它的精神是The God of Hosts,是萬王之王的意思。
馬克(Marc Edmund Jones (October 1, 1888 - March 5, 1980)先生這位被譽(yù)為美國占星學(xué)之父之稱本身也是屬於希伯來系統(tǒng),在西元1926年有一位西班牙基督教徒以他可以被書叫做「生命之源」而獲得啟發(fā)。到了西元1932年完成了整個理論架構(gòu)後跟一位名字叫做Elsie Wheeler會通靈的小姐互相合作,當(dāng)她手上拿到卡片時腦中所浮現(xiàn)的印象加以一一紀(jì)錄在紙條上,一共有360條,每一條如同詩般地描述黃道360度上每一個度數(shù)涵義,而大功告成。這位小姐是馬克先生的學(xué)生。 Marc Edmund Jones將它取名為(Sabian Symbolism)。他之所採用的Sabian這個字。其實(shí)是因?yàn)镸arc Edmund Jones曾經(jīng)在1923年指導(dǎo)一班名叫Sabian Assembly的團(tuán)體,後來他才發(fā)現(xiàn)原來在蘇美人希伯來人巴比倫人祕教系統(tǒng)中,Sabian有他神秘的意涵,頗符合他發(fā)展的本意,因此,經(jīng)過了23年的研究,重新修訂出版了The Sabian Symbols in Astrlogy這本書,但是,注意的人很少,後來Dane Rudyar先生更將Sabian Symbol重新詮釋,並且不斷地在雜誌上發(fā)表解說,因此,獲的了世人的重視。
星圖上每一個度數(shù)都會有一個象徵,而每一個象徵都能幫助我們邁向生命的祕密花園,每一個人都擁有一把鑰匙,幫助我們在昇華之前,必須要完成這實(shí)現(xiàn)真實(shí)性,就是我們存在的價值。
讓我們舉二個例子說明Sabian度數(shù)的象徵
金牛座16度代表年長教師對傳統(tǒng)知識傳承的無力
這個度數(shù)的涵義是,雖在傳達(dá)傳統(tǒng)的知識上失敗,然而卻在傳達(dá)革新知識上獲得成功。這個度數(shù)的人從事教育工作的比率很高,對構(gòu)築新穎的獨(dú)立體系,也有很多人野心勃勃。當(dāng)面臨危機(jī)、處理現(xiàn)實(shí)的生存問題時,容易發(fā)現(xiàn)過去傳統(tǒng)的知識已不能再照本宣科的使用了。
從這個16度開始的5度,是確立個性的出發(fā)點(diǎn),所以必須回到自己根本存在的原點(diǎn)。創(chuàng)造性的能量雖然充足,其表現(xiàn)的具體方向尚未決定。想獲得大成果,仍屬於摸索的階段。這個度數(shù)的人,如果毫不自覺的話,共會變成胡鬧強(qiáng)索、我行我素的個性。
魔羯座17度象徵受到壓抑的女性,在裸體主義中發(fā)現(xiàn)心理的解放
在身心完全均衡的觀點(diǎn)土,現(xiàn)代人的生活方式,因?yàn)橐酝虒?dǎo)人把肉體和精神分離的宗教惡意的壓抑,發(fā)覺到有被扭曲之處,因此而產(chǎn)生了許多的神經(jīng)癥??墒?,在這個度數(shù)中,為了使它重新回到原本正確的健康水準(zhǔn),而想要突破身心的一切壓抑,放在判斷事物之擦,則以身體確認(rèn)的姿態(tài),總之,就是不論任柯事,都要親自看見、確認(rèn)之後,才會相信的那一類型的人。如果16度表示小孩純真的健康,那麼17度則暗示著大人渴望再度回歸小孩一般的單純之裸體生活方式的衝動,即想要從任何限制中逃出的願望,具有對自由的渴求。
在西元1893年在芝加哥有一個博覽會,馬克先生特別中意漂亮的水晶以及一些木頭,他會探索為何會覺得美,為何每個美都不同?他的哲學(xué)理論是動態(tài)理想主義,每一個石頭的價值以及色彩一定有它的連續(xù)性,到了西元1913年開始研究星象學(xué),而把卡巴拉跟哲學(xué)整合在一起,要參考行星黃道的位置來以及整合。
英文字YAHWEH在希伯來文的意思代表著耶和華,英文字SOBOATH=LOAD OF HOST,其來源可追溯自古文明美索不達(dá)米亞,有聖經(jīng)的經(jīng)典依據(jù)。
1.純正、純潔:
人類的認(rèn)知範(fàn)圍內(nèi)經(jīng)常會忽略到其實(shí)自己本身就是創(chuàng)造主。在命運(yùn)的存在中要能夠善用純正的力量。是認(rèn)為上帝要給你很大的考驗(yàn),你才能夠純潔。其實(shí)不要把自我發(fā)展的權(quán)利全部交給上帝去決定。只要我們自己能夠進(jìn)入到神的世界。因?yàn)槟闶且晃患儩嵉娜耍瑏K沒有居心不良,必然能夠呈現(xiàn)生命的實(shí)相。能夠應(yīng)用之後,就能夠遠(yuǎn)離意外以及自然所帶來的傷害,是因?yàn)槲覀円呀?jīng)能夠控制自己處事的型態(tài),也就是改變心態(tài),改變?nèi)松瑤硇腋5娜松?,不受到外在環(huán)境的限制。
2.健康健全:
在宇宙中每一件事情的存在,不論是人事物,都有存在的價值,都具有健全的態(tài)度去完成每一件事情。要用健全的意識,要能夠從現(xiàn)實(shí)中把自己釋放出來,保括情緒的不安全感,心智的不穩(wěn)定,環(huán)境受到限制等等要加以改正,突破四體帶來的障礙。 假設(shè)一個生命沒有受過限制以及衝擊,那就顯得死氣沉沉。壓力越大成就越高。也提到治療的部分,對於心智的展望、洞察力以及克服情緒的障礙的勇氣,以及對你所選擇的道路的持續(xù)力,如果都能夠達(dá)成目的就能夠完成最大的成就。再假定宇宙中有一個宇宙物質(zhì)是存在每一個人事物當(dāng)中,每一個物質(zhì)都潛藏具有積極的表達(dá)力也就是我們稱作為潛能,通過創(chuàng)造的力量,找到機(jī)會點(diǎn)來表現(xiàn),機(jī)會是要自己去領(lǐng)導(dǎo),自己掌握自己的生命。 宇宙的發(fā)展是無窮盡的,當(dāng)外在一切改變時,是要秉持利貞,就可以以靜制動,以不變應(yīng)萬變而。焦點(diǎn)要放在什麼是真正的生命的價值,什麼是生命真正的方向,不要隨波逐流。所有的存在體都應(yīng)當(dāng)堅守他的生涯,不要太憂慮,腳踏實(shí)地的面對生命的結(jié)構(gòu),知命而不認(rèn)命。
3.歸屬感,親密的關(guān)係:
每一個人都不是單獨(dú)的存在,除了家庭以外,還必須有社會的歸屬感,在我們了解了之後就明白建立人際關(guān)係的重要性,幫助我們個人從家庭到社會到人類到宇宙,建立一層一層的歸屬感,而不同於一些狂熱分子所聚集的團(tuán)體。能夠跟志同道合傾向正面發(fā)展的團(tuán)體或是主義而產(chǎn)生互動的歸屬感以及建立親密的人際關(guān)係。我們要懂得達(dá)到很適宜的狀態(tài),不要被別人排擠,是提醒我們大家要和平相處,當(dāng)中要理解彼此的意識以及潛意識,對於習(xí)俗慣例相 同的部分。強(qiáng)調(diào)不要將自己禁錮在地球之上,自我囚禁靈魂,一個人要能有勇氣增加自己的鍛鍊,吧不當(dāng)?shù)牟糠窒?,接納群體的挑戰(zhàn),因此,我們必須要有良好的身體,身心健康,主動積極參加群體歸屬感中。雙方的條件要加以平衡,思想以及精神要有一定的品質(zhì),達(dá)到質(zhì)量並重。
4.自發(fā)性:
無為、無不為,合乎對的才去作。要合乎宇宙「道」的精神,在文化以及文明上要非常謹(jǐn)慎的運(yùn)作,不是只有小我的存在,一言一行都會影響到周圍,當(dāng)不妄為才能影響別人,情緒很自然的流動,不在意識形態(tài)上造成錯誤的影響,才能展現(xiàn)人類的本性,以正當(dāng)?shù)谋憩F(xiàn),放下不當(dāng)?shù)乃枷?,表露出情緒的正當(dāng)狀態(tài),建立積極的行為,會去影響到周遭的環(huán)境,也就是行不言之教,讓周遭人耳濡目染潛移默化受到影響。經(jīng)的起考驗(yàn),正當(dāng)?shù)?、理性的,如此可以消除許多犯罪的衝動而達(dá)到社會的祥和。也就是說,消除人類的自私,達(dá)到善的循環(huán),強(qiáng)調(diào)要照顧別人的動機(jī)才能,對社會有更多的貢獻(xiàn)。生活的每一天都要往好的方向邁進(jìn),互動之下在產(chǎn)生社會人心的改善,需要別人人起而行,自動歸到善的行徑,要善用潛意識的能量。
5.責(zé)任:
每一個人誕生到這個世界人來就是自己的舵手,自己要掌握生命的方向,自己要有意願決心往正當(dāng)成長的道路上前進(jìn),即使觸礁也要邁向?qū)Π?。遇到環(huán)境變化,如何用覺知來調(diào)整情緒體心智體,不能夠做無謂的犧牲,要尊重生命的存在價值。身體是靈魂的具體表現(xiàn),健康的身體可以綻放魅力,是靠內(nèi)在的氣質(zhì)所影響的,其目的就是要能夠與周合而為一達(dá)到圓融。人類的情緒體不容易掌握,當(dāng)你在憤怒時,會影響周遭的人,所以當(dāng)我們能夠處在積極正面的能量之下,就形成一個保護(hù)網(wǎng)保護(hù)我們,當(dāng)我們看到外在的環(huán)境不在我們?nèi)萑痰墓?fàn)圍內(nèi),這個時候我們要能理解到,當(dāng)我們受到外在的衝擊,所得到的結(jié)果是什麼?那是因?yàn)槲覀儧]有妥當(dāng)?shù)貛椭鷦e人走向正途。我們除了是自己的舵手之外,如果別人生命的提昇是我們的責(zé)任,我們就必須延伸之。精神的成長是透過我們對別人的貢獻(xiàn),有一天善的循環(huán)會回饋的你,靈魂是身體的一部分,不是單單的一個零件,也不是獨(dú)立的零件,當(dāng)我們在提升精神時候,靈魂也獲得滋養(yǎng)。如何善待理性的精神是最重要的課題。
6.羅曼史--慈愛、大愛、善待周邊的人:
如同媽媽照顧小孩一樣,不讓小孩受一點(diǎn)的傷害,對於鄉(xiāng)里鄰居提供幫助貢獻(xiàn)法會,發(fā)揮人類的愛,再延伸到社會國家世界宇宙,讓人類處在沒有恐懼之下,從日常生活中遭到特殊意義,提昇生活到理想的層面,這過程中隱藏了些微英雄氣質(zhì),對於該冒險的也要浪漫的展現(xiàn),不需要過度的矜持,才能消除人與人之間的隔閡,拉近彼此的距離感,幫助人類追求真正的情感。經(jīng)常展現(xiàn)笑容就是一種浪漫的表現(xiàn),會拉近人與人之間的關(guān)係,把自己的感受與敏銳型更精緻化。不要變成情感麻木,要敞開心胸,又能夠敏銳的感受到別人的情懷,我們可以邁向更大生命的掌握,故步自封和自以為是是增加別人對我們的敵意。
7.開創(chuàng)、直覺。
建立締造,就是去做去行動。另一種是自己做不來,必須藉由儀式、同伴來一起完成。或自己行動力不足也必須藉儀式來進(jìn)行。可在執(zhí)行的過程中不斷修正,但是如果拖延就永遠(yuǎn)沒有開創(chuàng)希望了。在精神的發(fā)展上也是一楊,如同宗教受洗的意義,強(qiáng)化掌握時間的重要性。自己可自行定計畫書,在追求精神的成長上要自我耕耘,自己更高的精神價值是來自於自我精神的轉(zhuǎn)化,不可假手於人。不要一味模仿別人,要有創(chuàng)造性的生涯。較高的精神意識是需要有感知的,要要透過理光的洗禮,非模糊進(jìn)入精神大道上,要把光形成光束,才能在黑暗中展現(xiàn)「我」的存在,不但如此,同時幫助別人照亮她們的道路,手電筒是指引的提示。如果自己成長而沒幫助到周圍的人,不是最高的成就或奉獻(xiàn)。讓世界因?yàn)槟愣@得光明,要秉持像童子軍日行一善的精神。
8.奉獻(xiàn)。
因人類在世間有一個自我毀滅的趨勢,並無繼續(xù)創(chuàng)造光明的方向,人類要善待生命,不能摧殘別人。提醒健全的社會架構(gòu)及發(fā)展有無本末倒置,有這樣的奉獻(xiàn)心才是。追求完美圓融就不得做有害的行徑。以正面光明積極的人類思想來從小地方開始做起,不得摧殘那些幼小心靈的兒童,因?yàn)闀羞L而復(fù)始的習(xí)慣性養(yǎng)成,有兒童有模仿性及延續(xù)性。Sabian教導(dǎo)在奉獻(xiàn)時並無要你犧牲個人的志趣或喜好。要體驗(yàn)內(nèi)在深邃的感覺,也並不需要近乎狂熱的宗教虔誠,追求提升生命價值的工作在每天工作上去進(jìn)行。老子曰:「無為而治」達(dá)成貢獻(xiàn)。要讓自己有崇高的理想,又輕鬆在日常生活中呈現(xiàn)。依地球的靈魂進(jìn)化特質(zhì)分為三大類: 1. 植物----求生存的靈魂。 2. 動物---生命+動物的靈魂,有喜怒哀樂。 3. 人類---生命力、意識、覺知,也有動物性的靈魂,需要理性的靈魂來駕馭。
9.想像力、創(chuàng)造力、理解力。
重點(diǎn)是放在成熟的心智上,不要放在無聊的事情而浪費(fèi)時間。人類心智中擁有非凡的力量,因此想要落實(shí),真正的驅(qū)動力是想像力,這種能力是人類的潛能,可有非凡之成就。在善的基礎(chǔ)上容易實(shí)現(xiàn)。把想像力當(dāng)作是命中創(chuàng)造希望的一種工具,也可比擬自己是宇宙的創(chuàng)造主。Sabian教導(dǎo)我們了解到我們的感官是透過生命的靈魂駕馭物質(zhì)的需要,維護(hù)生命的成長。情緒體的作用是透過動物性的靈魂了解人與人往來所需要的理性。因?yàn)槿耸侨后w動物,過度感性的的人並非完美。
10.挑戰(zhàn)。
非挑性,是面對困難要能克服完成。要懂得如何善用工具?包括本身的才華及能力,突破困難,成就想像力的落實(shí),在地球上有四個層面可資運(yùn)用: 1. 礦物:具體的能力。 2. 植物 3. 動物 4. 人類:心智能力 5. 星體(老師加的) 要善用以上的能力,我們可透過管理來增加克服困難的限制。Sabian在星象學(xué)中提醒人的心智部分是非常有價值,可建立倫理道德的規(guī)範(fàn)來實(shí)現(xiàn)。根據(jù)藍(lán)圖及道德標(biāo)準(zhǔn)去做,才能掌握確實(shí)性,引導(dǎo)別人生命的價值。人是必須被極度尊重的,要達(dá)到真實(shí)的生涯,不得偷拐搶騙。同時還不能過度的追求物質(zhì)及自甘墮落,在達(dá)到創(chuàng)造性的人生,在意識能量中可以以密度低的能量來管理密度高的能量。
11.精通、熟練、領(lǐng)導(dǎo)力、支配力。
才能是需要培養(yǎng)的。個人要達(dá)到某種程度的完美,又必須有特殊的訓(xùn)練,認(rèn)證制度是必要的。同時要具有理論與實(shí)務(wù)並重,又要有接受挑戰(zhàn)的準(zhǔn)備,要人不斷地努力超越一般的標(biāo)準(zhǔn),日益求精,尤其是精神導(dǎo)師的路上,更需要具有社會的觀察力,有宏觀的視野,廣博的經(jīng)驗(yàn),又要有寬闊的心胸接受各派的理念。Sabian可從精神導(dǎo)師圖上了解根源?;A(chǔ)一定要能融合各門派的管道,才能充分成長茂密的枝芽。應(yīng)用時如何掌握?要不斷地在生活層面,社會宗教政治領(lǐng)域察覺,從中找出偏見及限制,懂得重新思考,找出理論,讓眾生容易接納社會的思想。
12.勇氣。
並非魯莽的英雄行徑,當(dāng)我們面臨到危難以及關(guān)鍵時刻能夠去面對,生命中要有克服困難的勇氣、信心,包括面對家人長者,包括在學(xué)習(xí)上遇到無聊困頓的時間也要面對,包括堅毅達(dá)成較崇高理想的生活,才能邁向生命較高的追求及讚美、尊敬。所謂的哲人就是覺知較高的成長,真正有精神目標(biāo)而又有勇氣追尋的人。讓我們保持積極面對日常生活,當(dāng)能提升我們的意識時,就能了解到自由的空間,更多的知識以及精神發(fā)展會更有能力開闊我們的心胸。
再邁向靈性創(chuàng)造的人生,善用太陽的能量,把陽光代表人的意識,將你的生活引導(dǎo)到你所處的星座所代表的價值,一定要保持在社會上的積極活動力。
13.靈感、啟示。
人會到不當(dāng)?shù)撵`感影響,靈感有好有壞,要能夠切斷,要能分辨是非的能力,要增長知識,內(nèi)在的基礎(chǔ)上理解社會的價值,不要過度追求物質(zhì)化的觀念,流行並不一定是好的,要以啟蒙的方式去糾正不當(dāng)?shù)奈幕?.,要去體驗(yàn)光明的所在,可透過智慧文字傳播,讓人增加是非判斷的能力,從事文化工作者尤其重要。
14.確定性。
世間沒有一件事是純?nèi)淮嬖?,都是有相對性的。我們要懂得相對就是確定性,了解在精神領(lǐng)域用科學(xué)的類比法則尋找真理,哲學(xué)科學(xué)本一家,代表真理是透過求證而來,達(dá)到時效。在Sabian中代表我們能在適時適地去提供一個確定性,表示你能掌握時間與空間的因素。在哲學(xué)中提醒在宇宙當(dāng)中相互之間的作用會因我們處在喜悅的狀態(tài),而讓我們對環(huán)境的期望獲得定性,創(chuàng)造「確定性」。當(dāng)一個人能強(qiáng)化他的意志,其目的及目標(biāo)而成就他的確定性,善用因果律,就能實(shí)質(zhì)呈現(xiàn)期望的效果。
15.優(yōu)越性、本性、特性、榮譽(yù)。
當(dāng)人在生命中有某些才能有優(yōu)越性,是經(jīng)過了此人長期努力獲得,所獲得的榮譽(yù)可以幫助別人,一個有才能的人應(yīng)該去對社會有所貢獻(xiàn),不要輕視別人,不得逃避之。而要利用機(jī)會提供你具體的貢獻(xiàn),如此才能成就不朽的意識。要像媒介一樣去幫助別人,幫助比你不足的人,你要以近乎不朽的智慧去幫助別人。
16.價值、影響力。
對周遭的人具備有影響力,助益別人從事有意義的發(fā)展,能幫助別人讓她們的能力呈現(xiàn)出來,不吝於成就別人成功。本身又須具備理論的知識,以及對實(shí)際環(huán)境了解的經(jīng)驗(yàn)。自己有深髓的Know-How,而能提供給別人,是一位真正有影響力的人。讓我們確切展現(xiàn)我們的潛力,以及我們的影響力,首先要聚集資源,卻且完成生命的價值,要非常友善地進(jìn)行。
