When a new solar system body is discovered, clues to the astrological meaning comes primarily from studying the planet in a large number of charts to find common themes. This book is an attempt to do this for Sedna. Drawing on two years of research, New Zealand astrologer, Alan Clay, calls it ‘the soul’s path of destiny’.
Many astrologers believe that each new planet discovered represents a new aspect or level of consciousness that humanity starts to embrace from that moment and, if this is true, Sedna represents the weird new outer limit of our consciousness which is stretching our concepts of reality and is pulling us to look at ourselves as part of the very big picture.
To understand Sedna, the book also looks at the physical characteristics of the planet, at the myth behind the name and at past cycles, finding a connection with the Ice Age cycle and with evolutionary changes on Earth. It also looks at discovery events in 2003 and finds a link with the emergence of neural networks, which is the basis for Artificial Intelligence and with Dark Energy and Dark Matter, which together make up 95% of the universe… that’s right, Sedna teaches us that we’ve only discovered 5% of what is really around us.
Then we look at Sedna in the signs and the houses and at the aspects with all the inner planets, so you can begin to interpret this evolutionary planet in your own life. The book includes a comprehensive aspect analysis with all the traditional planets, plus all the new dwarf planets including: Ceres, Pluto, Ixion, Orcus, Makemake, Haumea, Varuna, Quaoar and Eris.
