Dog Star Manifesto
I. Opening of the Mouth
Astrology is to sit and face the Oracle. The cosmos is both a reflection and manifestation of consciousness which communicates with us at all times through its fractal and harmonic nature. Within this ancient system and through intuition we can interpret its mysteries.
II. Rejection
The question of planetary causation or reflection is irrelevant because they exist simultaneously. Oversimplification of the Practice leads to categories of people and fixed personality descriptions which cannot exist. This leads to the commodification of personhood and of spirit, taking civilization into further decay. To truly reconnect with each other can only be done when the invisible is allowed to exist. Knowledge and imagination are not separate here.
III. Symbol
The Planets and Signs show us where our place is in this cosmos, and where the universe acts from within each of us. They are the guides to show us how our paths are laid out before us and how we can choose to step along it. Free Will coexists with Fate.
IV. Practice
The Practice will be focused on the Native. Personal or personalized interactions that require time and creativity. Looking at what’s in front of us rather than typecasting. Ambiguity is part of this; symbols can have multiple or contradictory meanings, but through the whole narrative comes the message.
V. Principles
1. Astrology is done slowly
2. Astrology is for all levels of Being
3. The Cosmos is a living entity
4. Symbols are larger than definition
5. Interpretation is Encountering, not de-coding
6. Imagination is Perception
7. Astrology is Divination, not Science
VI. Invitation
To look upwards and to open oneself up is when the magick happens. To claim the Gifts that await us requires courage and empathy - the separation between us is permeable.
Fortune smiles at those who come prepared.
