The Concordance Grand Quintile Sequence

Johnny Mirehiel

(October 12, 2004)

 

Now Hear This

There is NEW astrology! This has very much to do with the Grand Quintiles which I have discussed before. One of our web site visitors, Linda Beadle, first alerted us to the presence of a THIRD GQ at the end of November. When I checked out her reference, I found that, with a certain caveat, there is indeed a third Grand Quintile formed on November 25th, between 5:39 am and 9:52 am, UT at Greenwich.

The Caveat

In order to see this quintile, astrologers must extend the orbs for the Quintile aspect to 3° 30".  I understand this to be a controversial move for many astrologers.  Indeed, it was an idea that I myself had rejected upon first reading Linda's message.  I wrote and told her so, but the image stuck with me for couple of days, and I decided to revisit it in detail just in case I might want to incorporate the information into the teaching that we are currently doing about these wondrous times.

As a matter of fact, a good sized handful of astrologers discounted the existence of the Harmonic Concordance Grand Sextile because I had used orbs (5° 35") for the Sun and Moon that they considered too wide to be effective.  In the face of that particular criticism, I was happy that aspects in the first two GQs fell within tight orbs.  But in spite of it, I am going to set aside my previous stance vis-à-vis the allowable orb for the Quintile series, and agree to the wider orb of 3°30".  Doing so dramatically enhances the elegance of the Sequence.

For me, therefore, there is this third astrological event that fits perfectly, and logically, into this VERY powerful sequence of what I am calling the Concordance Grand Quintile Sequence.  I take the liberty to use this term because the Harmonic Concordance has become a recognizable metaphor among the Spiritual Community of Conscious Seekers to whom we speak which captures the essence of the Collective of Spirit in these times.

The Third Quintile

If one were inclined to accept the Quintiles' orbs as being 3°30", then the 3rd GQ exists.  Here's the chart, mid-way between the moon's entrance onto the Star Pentagram pattern (5:39 am UT/GMT) and the time of its passage out of it (9:46 am).  Note the degree of the Moon.

First of all, it seems to me that it is perfectly in tune with the "Trintizing" quality associated with three of anything found throughout the Spiritual Literature of the Ages, and that is at the core of the Ascended Relationship.  On those grounds alone, I could embrace it as legitimate in the astrology that I practice.   Indeed, the presence of the Quintiles in these charts has also encouraged me to give this aspect a greater power than I had formerly ascribed to it.   This in particular because I now see, retrospectively, that my own exact Moon/Venus Quintile has been working in my life all along.

It has even been suggested elsewhere that the current interest in the application of the Quintile aspects might be analogous to the times of the discovery of Pluto and Chiron.  When first encountered, practicing astrologers were slow to take up the use of those two bodies as planetary energies.  So too may be the case with the recognition of the heretofore lightly regarded Quintiles.  Along with the inquiry into the weight of these Quintile aspects, this investigation might also see a reconsideration of their allowable orbs of effectiveness.  And since this time has been heralded as one of the return of the Divine Feminine, is it not also an appropriate moment to re-embrace the Quintiles within the pantheon of aspects that astrology calls "the basics?"  It is also interesting to note that the astrological school which most readily embraces the primacy of the Five aspect series is John Addey's "Harmonic Astrology."  It seems that the time is right to revisit this most feminine of aspects, (the components of Her Star Pentagram) and its rightful place in the astrological hierarchy.  Just as the Divine Feminine is returning to Consciousness now, so too should her aspect.

The Five Station Sequence

Considering this context, one could actually say that we are currently in a "five-station" sequence of events associated with the five-energy of the Quintiles.

Station One = 1st GQ - October 1st
Station Two = Solar Eclipse - October 14th
Station Three = Total Lunar Eclipse - October 28th
Station Four = 2nd GQ - October 28th
Station Five = 3rd GQ - November 25th

Each of these events gives us an opening through the window of the Taurus/Scorpio sign pairing.   The Venus connection (harkening back to her dramatic retrograde conjunction with the Sun of last June 8th), is apparent here too through her rulership of Taurus, highlighting our truest values and our spiritual intentions concerning relationships, balance and harmony.  And let's not forget that this pairing is a VERY important point in our spiritual and physical evolution as it  anchors in the heart of the first of the traditional Four Horsemen.

There is also the internal evidence of the connection between the 3rd GQ and the other members of this Quintile family.  It is associated with its sisters by its Moon's connection to the very degrees of the Taurus/Scorpio Moons in the other charts.  (Note that the Moon is the primary Feminine energy in a chart.)  Therefore it is also connected to the other "Moments" that preceded them in their astrological lineage (i.e., the original HC event, the 8/11/99 Solar Eclipse, etc).

That the Grand Quintile Sequence happens three times, EXACTLY within two Lunar cycles, should also be noted.  The very fact of the precise lunar cycle of these charts encourages us to make that long awaited shift to the truer Lunar Calendar.

All in all, this third Quintile definitely belongs in the mix and, as the final offering in the sequence, may offer the ultimate pay-off to it.

Yes, it is indeed a time of great JOY, HOPE and LOVE.

In Gratitude,
