Hello Deva and All,
I am studying the DVDs and currently, I am watching the 24th, but so far I have not seen anything regarding the role of culture in evolutionary growth and to be honest, I have seen each DVD about six times. Could you please let me know how I can take culture into consideration?
For instance, I am from Iran and my country has long been in crisis and war, and the people here have never had the chance to experience economical or political stability.
I would like to know how this could be described in the birth chart of Iranians.
Regards,
Maryam
Hi Maryam,
I am following on from Rad's reply to you with regards to your question about culture and politics. You have brought up a great question, especially for all EA practitioners.
As Rad has already explained, understanding cultural norms and customs is important when working with a natal chart because without that context, one wouldn't be able to decipher a chart correctly.
In JWG's book Pluto Volume II, Chapter 4 covers the topic of "Social, Cultural, Parental and Religious Imprinting." The chapter explains these fours areas and how it can affect one's Soul evolution and life journey. This is worth a read if you haven't already. If you have, it's great to re-read because as our knowledge grows, our interpretation also expands and it can give you a different perspective which you may not have had before.
Best wishes,
Rav
