divided equally into four Quarters, or four modalities, according to the Sun’s placement in the sky relative to the Earth at any particular time of the year. The four Quarters are numbered and titled as “Initiation (1),” “Civilization (2),” “Duality (3),” and “Mutation (4).”

       THE FOUR QUARTERS OF LIFE THEMES

      Wherever the Sun is placed at the moment of our birth is the portion of the sky or the star fields from which we receive 70 percent of the energy in our Design. The Quarter in which your Conscious Sun is placed determines the drive behind your lifetime.

       1. If your Conscious Sun’s placement is in the Quarter of Initiation (1), you are an “initiator” who is always at the forefront of getting things off the ground; opening new ideas, styles, projects, research, proposals, and experiences; and questing for new knowledge, feelings, and potentials.

       2. If your Life Theme is in the Quarter of Civilization (2), you are helping to open and establish communications and ways in which people can relate better with one another. This happens through architecture, music, writing, speech, diplomacy, agriculture, arts, travel, teaching, and many other ways, and you are receptive to how people interact and cooperate together.

       3. If your Life Theme is in the Quarter of Duality (3), you are exploring every conceivable way to bring about growth or improvement. You’ll likely question all the multiple ways in which life can be lived from both male and female as well as other dualistic perspectives; your attention will be drawn toward the strength and fragility of life, health and well-being, safety issues, and ultimately questioning what we are doing here as individuals.

       4. If your Life Theme is in the Quarter of Mutation (4), you are in the forefront of changes and transformation. You watch the ways in which life grows and expands through the thrust of creative evolution, sometimes as a result of your direct involvement, and at other times you’re observing in amazement as life around you twists and turns into new shapes and forms.

      Each Quarter commences with a version of the Personal Life Theme of Direction, “the Sphinx,” which sets the stage for the upcoming season.

      Each Quarter concludes with either the Interpersonal Life Theme of Incarnation or the Interpersonal Life Theme of Refinement.

      Every Life Theme has a direct connection into each of the four Quarters except for the Interpersonal Life Themes of Incarnation and Refinement, and the Fixed Life Themes of Rationalization, Retreat, Alertness, and Need, which are contained in two Quarters each.

       HOW LIFE THEMES COME TO BE

      The 192 Life Themes are sometimes called “Incarnation Crosses” because they are constituted from four points in the sky at the moment of your birth, or at the moment of a creation or a particular event. When these four points are connected together through a wheel representing the sky around us, they look like a slightly skewed cross. The four points are set from the placement of the Sun and Earth (which are opposite each other) for the particular “birth moment,” and also the placement of the Sun and Earth for a moment in time exactly 88 degrees of Solar Arc (approximately three months) before that birth. So the angle of the “cross” is set at 88 degrees.

      As the Sun appears to move around us throughout the seasons of the year, it passes from one Life Theme to the next, moving from Personal to Fixed to Interpersonal and on to Personal in a regular sequence.

      The placement of the Sun at birth represents 70 percent of the energy available in any Life Chart, so we have equated the name of each Life Theme with the placement of the Sun and the name or association of hexagrams/Gates in which it sits. The Conscious Sun’s placement in the Life Theme carries the conscious agenda for the lifetime, whereas the Sun and Earth placement from 88 degrees of Solar Arc before birth carries some of the unconscious, genetically inherited aspects of the Life Theme. Each Life Theme is a blend of conscious and unconscious attributes that meld together.

      Your Life Theme stays with you throughout your lifetime and gives you a quiet reminder as to where best to place your attentions, gifts, and natural abilities. Your Life Theme is best considered from an objective standpoint: it is what it is, and the more you allow yourself to relax into it, the more it serves you in your journey throughout your lifetime.

      Most of the Life Themes include in the margin a list of noted people, and in rare cases events, that share that Life Theme. Because Fixed Life Themes are so rare, we have only been able to find a few celebrities who share them. We would love to hear from you if you know of others. Enjoy!

       The Personal Life Theme of DIRECTION (THE SPHINX) (4)

       Sally FieldEthan HawkeMaria ShriverMarie CurieEmma Stone

      Direction is your purpose in life, whether you are finding a direction for yourself or showing the way for others. Many will see you as a lighthouse that allows others to find their own bearings. At times you find yourself pointing a way that defies normal explanation, but if you are true to yourself and your creative impulses, the direction will be the right one. On our planet, the Sphinx in Egypt symbolizes an ancient, forgotten, yet ever-constant mystical guidance toward something greater than ourselves. Somewhere in your being, you remember.

      Be aware that your ability to point the way for someone does not automatically imply you then have to take the lead for them, or that it is your responsibility or obligation to carry others through their lives, even if you could. If you find yourself overly obliged to others and continuously helping them find their way, you might consider reviewing how healthy those relationships really are. Pointing the direction for someone and then encouraging them to engage with their own abilities is the best approach. Ultimately, everyone is responsible for their own life journey, and forgetting this can entangle you in one distraction after another.

      With your Conscious Sun in Gate 1, you express yourself creatively, whether it is through your inherent artistic ways or in how you provide more creative guidance for the world around you. There is always something fresh and creative in how you interact with life. Whether you give direction in more subtle ways or with overtly deliberate precision, those who come to you for guidance get ingenious instruction about how to proceed. Taking the path less trodden is your way, and while you prefer that everyone comprehends this about you, you are also able to explain what you are aiming toward and why. Remembering your Type and Authority always clues you in to those people and situations that merit your guidance.
