apollonUPDATE 2010: As with anything, time, age and experiences increase one wisdom of understanding. I undertook a six-month work of love to redefine the Uranian planets into a modern context of understanding. And I produced these eight monographs on them. Now, twelve years later, with more knowledge and experience, I am adding my latest understanding of them in this blog.

Symbol: Jupiter with the glyph of Gemini contained within it. Unlimited expansion of Jupiter coupled with the multi-abilities/skills/talents of Gemini. Apollo was the son of Zeus (King of the gods) and Leto, in Grecian myth. He was the Sun God and ‘god of wisdom’ and prophecy. It always means “two of something” in keeping with Gemini the Twins.

MEDICAL RULERSHIPS OF APOLLON:

  1. “Two” of something–can be two medical or health related problems at once that impinge upon the person. Something might happen to the person and then to someone they love or know.
  2. Having to experience illness; and through the gaining of it, a new perspective and appreciation that the person, can in turn, view others through this lens and creates understanding and compassion instead of impatience or arrogance.
  3. Having twins. Or, multiple births.
  4. Two complications.
  5. Increase of a health problem–such as the ‘spreading’ of the disease or symptoms. Poison Oak/Ivy is a good example of this–it ‘spreads’.
  6. Multiplication of some ‘thing’–can be a tumor–the multiplication of cells until they are out of control (Jupiter–unlimited expansion with no boundaries to stop the cell proliferation) and you get benign as well as malignant tumors out of the situation.
  7. Strep A bacteria–unlimited expansion of necrosis/dying flesh.
  8. Any sting or poisonous bite that ‘spreads’ throughout the body wreaking havoc.
  9. Lyme disease (tick) ‘spreads’ to the entire body and creates arthritis-like symptoms.
  10. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome ‘spreads’ throughout the body and renders the person fatigued/tired/exhausted.
  11. The spreading of cancer via the lymph nodes/glands.
  12. Increases some ‘thing’ (like a headache that turns into a migraine as an example).
  13. Learning through the EXPERIENCE of being sick–wounded healer–brings compassion to us for others afterward.
  14. Nerve-related illness (Gemini link). Being easily stressed out because their central nervous system is highly sensitized. They must not push too hard or they ‘burn out’ and collapse on a nervous system level.

PSYCHOLOGICAL UNDERPINNINGS OF APOLLON:

  1. These people are charismatic. They come into a room and you know they are there. They ‘shine’ like the Sun. Like the Sun God, Apollo from Greek myths, he was the Sun God. They are not necessarily arrogant; but they simple ‘glow’ with who they are and the energy that runs through them and throbs around them in their vital force/aura.
  2. Usually very good looking, beautiful, handsome, attractive individuals. They dress fashionably; very aware of fashion. They like bright colors, ‘flash’ and make splashy entrances.
  3. They are dramatic, PASSIONATE about life and living life. They live out of their emotions/heart center. If their passion is snuffed out, this will bring on health problems. They do not like darkness within themselves or external situations. Their ‘job’ is to bring ‘light’ to those they are involved with.
  4. “The Beautiful People”–those who are rich or famous or both. Political ‘stars’. They are cultured people; love the arts and the sciences. They frequently enjoy the opera, museum openings, a play on Broadway, reading of poetry, attending conferences to learn from or to teach others about a specific topic. They are voracious about learning/educating. Intense curiosity about life. They love to learn. They are great readers of books. Computer friendly people. They frequently have a college education, or you may find them in Academia as professors. Easily bored.
  5. When sick, they need fresh air, sunshine, to be ‘home’, not in a hospital (they HATE hospitals/institutions of that ilk–such as a nursing home). They heal up best a ‘home’ where sunshine can pour in, and fresh air can circulate around them.
  6. Breath and breathing has great and deep meaning to them. That is why fresh air, when ill, is a must as part of their recovery.
  7. Suggest they own their own small business. They are always happy to ‘expand’ on something and ‘increase’ it. They are the business corporate tycoons as well. Corporate raiders. Corporate kings and queens (the Fortune 500 group) will all have Apollon prominent in their charts.
  8. If interested in a science, have them get more education in it; even if it is just a ‘hobby’.
  9. Anything that will involve their mind/mental processes; such as reading, learning from the Internet, attending classes, etc.
  10. If they show an interest in finances or the stock market, suggest classes to become familiar in them.
  11. Have them write poetry to touch more deeply into their hidden side of themselves and bring up anything that is suppressed/repressed in them.
  12. They are great teachers; natural teachers–so encourage them to ‘teach what they know’ if only to a few.
  13. They must have a room that is rich in cultural things they love to have around them; such as having it decorated with bright, clean colors, having classical music playing, perhaps a little fountain gurgling, green plants, windows to allow in fresh air and sunshine–that is health to an Apollon person.
  14. If they love to tell stories (most do) have them become a story teller at a local bookstore once a month. Here, they can ‘shine’. They are passionate storytellers, so help them take advantage of this skill they have in place.
  15. Suggest a writing course to them. They will excel!
  16. They have a great love of art. Suggest taking a painting class or course in art or art history.
  17. They may be able to write a children’s book–so urge them to get the training to do it–they’ll illustrate it, too!
  18. They love languages and are quite adept at it. Suggest a class in their favorite language.
  19. Have them join a debate team, or the Friar’s Club. They are wonderful speakers; have them hone these abilities.
  20. Urge them to use their LIFE EXPERIENCES and to turn it, somehow, into a creative use–such as writing an article, book, talking in front of a group, about it.
  21. Apollon people learn through experience and ‘hand’s on’ type of situation as easily as going to a university and book learning. They then, have the ability to turn around and share it with others. Tap into this to help them get well, health wise.
  22. Often associated with the “sciences” more than the ‘arts’ (Cupido’s area), an Apollon person may well have a science related career but be equally gifts in the arts in some way.
  23. These are the builders, whether building software to create a new world, pouring concrete to create a building as a civil engineer, or gene splicing to change the world, all fall under this Uranian planet’s rulership.
  24. There is a powerful interest in communication of all types and kinds. Whether the written word, spoken word, an email, a blog, a website or a creator of software.
  25. They have a ‘can do’ spirit. They don’t consider losing. They have a powerful vision and will work hard to ground and then manifest it. They learn from their failures and keep holding the vision of their success in front of them. They might get knocked down, but you can never count them out.
  26. Having a mind for mathematics, geometry, calculus and physics. Some of the greatest visionary minds (Stephen Hawkings for example) stretch the boundaries of our known Universe and beyond. Quantum physics and mystics meet here and begin to understand one another.
  27. Like the Greek Sun god, Apollo, there is a natural radiance, a ‘light’ that burns brightly in these people. They are beacons and way showers for the rest of us. They are the ones who pull old information that has been lost for millennia into the present so that it can be utilized once more.
  28. They have a keen interest in GREEN whether that means making of money or the greening of our planet and creating and manufacturing items to help it be sustainable.
  29. The “Midas Touch,” is here with this planet. The person has luck and fortune when others do not. It is based on hard work and application, as well. They don’t get a hand out but because of their discipline, organization and vision, those doors open to them a lot easier than it does for others.
  30. Like the Sun, Apollon people have incredible, dynamic vitality and vigor. They can out-endure everyone. The Sun’s energy is always there and so it is with the people who have this planet prominent in their natal chart. They are the “Energizer Bunnies” of the Cosmos. No grass grows under their feet!
  31. Their ‘fire’ comes from Apollo, the Sun god. Whether one calls it passion or vitality or just sheer will up against something else, doesn’t matter. What does matter is Apollon people will ‘burn through’ a situation and make it happen. Liken them to a focused laser who can cut through anything. The powerful WILL of Apollon cannot be matched by any other planet. Will it, and so it will be…
  32. Apollon brings forth ages of science and invention. As an example, the Industrial Age. The age of computerization. Genetics and the splicing of genes and having our genome understood, all fall under this planet’s rulership. When a new sine wave of vital energy is showered upon our planet, it comes through the lens of Apollon.
  33. People with Apollon conjunct another planet are usually highly skilled in some science-related area. Such as software programing, working on a rocket, creating metal inventions, or inventions of any type that will help us. The “nuts and bolts” kind of mind that can move things around spatially and see it from four sides type of intelligence. They could be a car mechanic, an airplane mechanic, an electrician or plumber. They can be in construction from housing to building the largest and tallest skyscrapers in the world. They can figure out what is needed, invent it, and then market it.
  34. Their minds are very left hemisphere; grounded more in the third dimensional reality. They are common sensed. Practical. Yet, if they can make that quantum leap, they move from the prove-it-to-me scientist to the awed mystic. Most, however, never get beyond the veil of the third dimensional world. If they do, they soar across the sky like the Sun god, Apollo in his shining chariot driven by four galloping horses.

HEALING TOOLS FOR APOLLON

  1. Yoga which involves breath work.
  2. Specific types of breathing exercise to increase depth of breathing. The deeper, the better for them.
  3. Breath work in the realm of rebirthing methods.
  4. Being out in sunlight and fresh air; a walk, or puttering outside in some activity.
  5. Being able to tap into their creative side. Suggest a class in music, art, dancing, writing or poetry to them.
  6. Get them interested in being an entrepreneur.

FLOWER & GEMSTONE ESSENCE CONSIDERATIONS FOR APOLLON:

  1. Echo Blue–to help them tap into their treasure chest of ‘seed ideas’ on an inner level of themselves.
  2. Goldenrod–to help bring back the ‘light’ to the person, the joy and sense of happiness about reconnection with all of Life.
  3. Almond Blossom–to help bring back the playful child side of an adult (or child) that may have been lost.
  4. Pear Blossom–about fertility on all levels; whether brain children or actually pregnant or wanting to get pregnant–with ‘ideas’ or a baby. Reestablishment of fertility of mind and body.
  5. Desert Paintbrush–to get the person to stand on their own two feet and believe in themselves instead of always working through others. Codependency where person doesn’t embrace their own unique skills and creativity. It supports them in stepping off in their own direction with confidence instead of letting others do it instead.
  6. Pink Penstemon–for learning to live life with a passion. Re-igniting a passion for Life, for what the person loves to do (and it may have been extinguished).
  7. Citrine–to tap into a person’s mental wealth and ideas. Excellent for use during tests when one ‘freezes up’ and forgets what they already know.
  8. Aquamarine–to soothe a fractious and taut central nervous system. Also helps the person to sleep and addresses insomnia from a “squirrel’s cage” mind that won’t shut off and stop thinking.
  9. Shasta Daisy–to help trust your own intuition, your own sense of knowing what is best for you. Following your own knowing. Trusting it. Also brings childlike “play” to a person’s life and lens on reality. Work is seen as play.
