Third Planetary Order
While it's easy to let my conscious ego self set goals, sometimes it's very interesting to just let myself be guided in my study and contemplation.
An early example of this was my meditation on the relationship between the Chaldean Order and the sequence of the days of the week. Each day of the week is ruled by a planet and by going through the 24 hour sequence of the planetary hours, arranged in the Chaldean Order (slowest to fastest planet) the first hour of every day is ruled by the planet that rules the day, giving us the order of the days of the week. Exploring this led to the discovery of beauty and order, in the planetary hours star of the week, which you can see on my Planetary Hours page
Recently I stumbled across another piece of the puzzle, which was that the sequence of days of the week for leap days, February 29th, were in the Chaldean Order! So not only did the Chaldean Order change into the days of the week, but the days of the transformed back into the Chaldean Order! How did this happen? My exploration had begun and I give a detailed explanation on my new Third Planetary Order page.
As you will see, I learned what modular arithmetic was and discovered that the Chaldean Order and the days of the week sequence are fundamental 7 fold orders, but that there is an additional fundamental 7 fold order, which I call the Third Planetary Order. What use this order may have for astrological prediction and magical power remains to be seen, but the incredible order and symmetry of the Cosmos is once again revealed.

- The "original" Planetary Symbols?
I had a question recently about what the original, read "best" planetary symbols were. Of necessity there is a good deal of subjectivity involved with magic. We can't hook up our magicometer and see that sigil A produces 1346 milli-potters while...
