HOROSCOPES

Born of the
same moment

YEARS AGO I contemplated a way of ‘‘scientifically’’

proving the efficacy of astrology.
... Partheno — virgin. Genetic-origin.

thenogenetically”’

That is, ‘“‘par-

Self-fertilization. In nature, no two creatures exist with the
very same genetic structure except those born of the same

moment — identical twins.

Suppose, | thought, by a series
of parthenogenetic births (at dif-
ferent ‘‘times’’), a group of
creatures exists ... ali of whom
have the same genetic
background. Such a par-
thenogenetic experiment had taken
place in England.

The egg of a frog killed by ul-
traviolet radiation had ‘been
brought to develop into a fully
developed frog by the injection of
a single cell.taken from the origi-

Robert

nal frog’s intestinal lining. Both .&

frogs, as a result, Possessed iden-
tical genetics.

A series of such experiments
would demonstrate scientifically
the efficacy of astrological ‘‘influ-
ences.’’ Of course, great care must
be taken.to keep the series under.
identical environmental influences
(isolated environment kept . as
“‘scientifically’’ identical as possi-
ble).

This would leave the moment of
birth as the only deciding ‘‘influ-
ence”’ on the individuality of each-

creature. This would answer the -

question: ‘‘What is the -difference
between one ‘time’ and” another
.?? And, of course, the dif-
ferences in each individual
creature could only be explained
“‘astrologically.’’ ;

As “‘different,’’ as unique as we
are, our similarities are much
greater than our differences. I
have been constantly reminded of.
this for-the past 30 years of
astrological study arid practice. ©

Astrology, conscientiously ap-
plied, does not need to be ‘‘scien-
tifically proven’’ to me, I never
cease to be astounded by the

validity of our collective projec--

tions. As above, so below. As
without, so within. We are em-
powered when we ‘‘own back’’
those projections. They are us.
Those planets and stars ‘out
there’? are us ... and ‘‘we’’ are
“they!”

For the week of Jan. 12-18, 1992

ALL SIGNS

The organic unity of trillions of
cells is a human body. This, in
turn, forms the nucleus of a huge
invisible spiral of life, or we may
say, of the infinite. The periphery
of the body reaches to the endless
end of this universe. Therefore, it
is said that we are immortal, im-
perishable and invincible.
