I have been delving into the question of destiny and the choices we make that carry us toward its fulfilment. For the ineluctable fact is that each one does have a particular, specific destiny; this cannot be denied. Usually at certain crossroads in life we are allowed to have a glimpse of the larger plan for ourselves, and we then seem to make more conscious choices. But the moment passes and the veils close in around us again; we are then driven along in total ignorance of where we are headed and, indeed, why we are here at all.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>We accept that our natal horoscopes provide the image of that Plan for us as individuals. But when it is <em>flat <\/em>and<em> uni-dimensional<\/em>, then the viewpoint or the reading of the destiny contained in a particular chart is also flat and lacking in depth, breadth and height; what we might call its <em>multi-dimensionality<\/em>. It would then be a <em>composite reading<\/em> containing aspects of destiny which are not apparent if the chart is flat. It is still a broad view but with many details lacking which provide the nuances that are necessary in order to bring the destiny of the subject into sharper focus. We <em>zero-in<\/em>, as it were, to discover other aspects in the reading.<\/p>\n<p>The horoscope \u2013 which is the condition of the heavens converging on an individual born on Earth at a particular isolated moment \u2013 is not simply uni-dimensional; that is, a flat <em>horizontal<\/em> plane like the first floor plan of the Mother\u2019s Chamber (<em>vide <\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.matacom.com\/\"> www.matacom.com <\/a>). Contained within that singular moment frozen in time through the infant\u2019s first breath is a <em>vertical<\/em> dimension. That vertical element is how imprinting is done when it meets the breath of the infant through which it makes contact on the material plane, localised in that frozen moment and stamped on the aether for ever after. Breath is the primary ingredient; therefore it is the first independent breath of the infant that marks the exact time for construction of the horoscope.<\/p>\n<p>If we use the four plans of the Inner Chamber as our guide in this exploration into the deepest recesses of Destiny, the results are conclusive. The first, from the Transcendent\u2019s poise, demonstrates the uni-dimensional overview, the broad lines of destiny that became imprinted when an fragment of time was captured as if on film by this unique arrangement. It shows us the horizontal which in the case of a horoscope is the stamp of the actual universal convergence on Earth at a particular location. It is physical entirely, but of a special order. The important factor we must note, if we wish to uncover the real nature of Destiny, is this question of <em>convergence<\/em>. This is the aspect of the operation that is the most essential ingredient for a deeper comprehension of just what a horoscope is. <em>It is the subject\u2019s first in-drawn breath that sets convergence in motion from all sides and breathes life into a particular destiny, or onto the CENTRE <u>which is the individual soul<\/u>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>One\u2019s \u2018time\u2019 is given its unique pulsating rhythm from that moment of imprinting via the infant\u2019s <em>exhalation<\/em>, a pulsation that is maintained for the rest of one\u2019s lived experience on Earth. Woven into the inhalation and exhalation process is the pulse of the Sun, like a central Axis around which the individual\u2019s own axis is yoked at the instant of suspension between inhalation and exhalation.<\/p>\n<p>Sri Aurobindo embodied the Transcendent aspect in the Descent of the Solar Line. His life and works describe very accurately what a vision of transcendence can be. But regarding an individual\u2019s horoscope, the breadth or scope of the vision would be determined entirely by the <em>height<\/em> from where one perceives. In Sri Aurobindo\u2019s case it goes without question that he has given evidence of a poise so elevated that the diameter of the circle encompassed by the capacity of his seeing Eye was of a vastness that appeared to be limitless.<\/p>\n<p>Since <em>convergence<\/em> is the most important aspect of Destiny to understand as it is presented to us in an individual\u2019s horoscope, naturally this is the feature of astrology most hotly criticised by Science: the Earth-centeredness of the chart. But the first of the Inner Chamber\u2019s plans reveals what this means. It is convergence onto the perfect centre (the Globe and the Pedestal) from all twelve sides of the Chamber <a title=\"_ftnref1\" href=\"http:\/\/patrizianorellibachelet.com\/TNWblog\/wp-includes\/js\/tinymce\/blank.htm#_ftn1\" name=\"_ftnref1\">[1]<\/a> that takes place with the first <em>in-drawn breath,<\/em> joining the entire cosmic surround to the central (invisible) axis of that individual\u2019s destiny. The vertical, which we will discuss further on, remains an essential element of one\u2019s destiny <em>but invisible, <\/em>just as one\u2019s breath is invisible but essential for life. After this imprinting of the converging moment frozen in time, the axial \u2018ladder\u2019 remains veiled as it were. To uncover this hidden yet essential aspect of one\u2019s destiny a special process has to be undertaken. A new dimension is then added \u2013 the Vertical.<\/p>\n<p>For most individual\u2019s born on planet Earth that invisible \u2018ladder\u2019 just does not exist. Therefore the horoscope can be read as a flat, uni-dimensional chart. The broad lines of destiny are visible in this way and can be seen (the scope of which depends on how high the astrologer\u2019s consciousness is poised), but any question of a \u2018higher\u2019 destiny does not exist in the conscious experience of the subject\u2019s trajectory through Earth time. That is, it exists <em>in potential<\/em> yes, but only in potential. Until the process is experienced in time which causes the existence of the \u2018ladder\u2019 to be disclosed, there is, for all practical purposes, no vertical dimension to the horoscope.<\/p>\n<p>That process is known in the Veda as \u2018the 9 becoming the 10.\u2019<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">[Link to <a href=\"http:\/\/patrizianorellibachelet.com\/TNWblog\/?p=52\" target=\"_blank\">Part 2<\/a>]<\/p>\n<hr align=\"left\" size=\"1\" width=\"33%\" \/>\n<p><a title=\"_ftn1\" href=\"http:\/\/patrizianorellibachelet.com\/TNWblog\/wp-includes\/js\/tinymce\/blank.htm#_ftnref1\" name=\"_ftn1\">[1]<\/a> <em>\u2018\u2026The twelve walls are the months of the year\u2019,<\/em> the Mother stated in January 1970.
