Good morning ladies and gentlemen, welcome to my channel.
We are in the 15th Excel worksheet of psychological astrological tests.
This one is more along the lines of time experience.
This also pertains to your experience of reality and how you perceive it.
Typically spiritual people tend to go into soul level without understanding the psychological level first.
That would be an error in my opinion because all you are functioning from first is your mental energy.
Your mind, your thought process, your psyche, your subconscious mind.
So experience as association or dissociation typically means are you experiencing your reality with complete sort of binding or detached way?
Are you attached or are you detached?
So the neuro-linguistic system which is what this test is about, it shows whether you are working in a sort of associated way or a dissociated way with reality at any time.
So these are about 20 to 30 common questions which you can reply yes to here in the answer box and this pie chart is going to change.
The link is in the description box. You can download these Excel worksheets and do it yourself.
Now why am I approaching this psychological to astrological?
And there's a reason for everything that I'm doing.
The reason here being if we understand or if we take the starting point of analyzing our own functioning as a mind, as a psyche,
as unconscious and subconscious both put together, how are you experiencing your reality in different contexts?
That's what we are doing with all these worksheets.
Then you typically understand what planet here is dominant as functioning in your psyche.
Not as a predictive means but as a means of stretching our knowledge or bridging our knowledge from psychology to astrology.
That's the purpose of the exercise.
So you take these common everyday questions.
Each question has two options as you can see.
How you engage in social events and parties?
For example, the fourth question.
Being actively involved feeling excitement and energy of the crowd?
A. Which is association typically or observing the event and people enjoying the atmosphere without feeling deeply involved.
That is dissociation as you can obviously see.
So the test case here has a 50% association and 50% dissociation mode of functioning or mode of experiencing.
It's a way of experiencing in much the similar way as time experience.
You can draw parallels with time experience by the way.
Because it's a way you experience reality.
These are very subtle psychological and deep innate drives that we have.
Experience. Let's go through this text.
For example, association is when the experience is felt to be part of you or that you are a part of the experience.
You seem to be identified with the experience or connected somehow with it.
You see what I'm saying?
This is more like being in time.
Association is similar to end time experience.
Association is useful when you want to feel more connected or one with a pleasant experience or a powerful experience or a future desirable state.
It can be anywhere in time, not necessarily in the present moment.
Like if you're projecting, if you're imagining something in the future, your life or your career, let's say you want to achieve a CEO post.
So you're imagining yourself connected to that experience very powerfully is association.
Dissociation on the other hand is when you feel you're watching,
listening to or observing an event from the outside, sort of a detached mode of observing reality,
more of an observational mode rather than a participatory mode.
Association is more participatory. You're in it.
You're feeling all the pain, pleasure, burns, everything in it.
But dissociation is stepping back from it saying, this is happening to my body or this is happening to my mind.
This is happening. I am feeling such and such at this moment.
It's a very crucial, very finely defined psychological aspect.
So it'll be very useful even if this is common end time experience in through time as well as association and dissociation to see how well you are connected with reality.
Forget the astrology. Even if you're just doing this for the psychological evaluation, if you're a child psychologist, a mentor, a coach, a counselor, this will be very useful to take for your subjects.
Dissociation is useful when you want to feel relief from past pain, present stress, or when there is a future goal towards which you want to be motivated.
Now, dissociation is what spirituality or most contemporary spiritual practices encourage you to get into.
Dissociate your ego yourself from the event or from your mental thought processes in order to watch, listen as detached or as you're observing from outside.
Sort of like saying, I observe my own thought processes as if I'm just looking at it.
This is what most spiritual practices will encourage you to do one way or the other.
Detach from it. The whole concept of detachment from mental process or feeling the bodily pains or feeling the emotional pains.
Dissociation is typically used when there is a lot of pain being felt. There is a lot of energy that one is not able to release or it has solidified in the system.
Mental, physical, emotional, wherever it may be.
Like it says, it's useful when you want to feel free from association. Much association is bad and dissociation is used to dissociate. Psychologists and psychiatrists typically use this a lot in their practice.
So that's one thing to keep in mind. I'm going deep dive into this because this is so subtle yet we function in this all the time.
Now let's see the astrological aspects.
Astrologically speaking, in my opinion, association has more to do with Mercury. Mercury looks sideways.
Like I said, the glance of the planets is one thing which is neglected a lot in astrology. Mercury has got a glance as a planet which is sideways.
So it looks to the left and the right. It looks for company. It looks to associate with an event. It is the third house of skills.
I'm talking astrological aspects now.
Third house of skills, sixth house of work, daily routines where you are strongly associated with a task, a skill, something you are cultivating, something you are consciously working on.
Although it comes from the subconscious or the unconscious mind, that's Mercury. Mercury is more of an associative kind of planet.
Jupiter, on the other hand, is dissociation. Jupiter likes to disengage, detach and observe sort of as a neutral observer.
You're standing back. You don't want to have too much to do with the experience. You just want to watch and learn.
So you might say in this context, Jupiter comes as a learning master. It is also a teacher, but it is more of a perfect learner.
The teacher himself is a perfect learner, isn't it, in this context? When can you learn from something?
When is the real knowledge of anything as a experience? Because we are talking about experience here.
When is the experience really distilling some sense of worth or knowledge, what you call as knowledge, knowing?
That's what Jupiter is responsible in your chart for. It is responsible for distilling the knowledge when you are detached or dissociated from whatever is going on sort of in front of you.
So if you take this test and if you find more of detachment, you are more of an observational kind of talented person.
If you are in an association kind of, then Mercury is strong in your chart, wherever that might be.
That's the way we analyze this. So take this test, download it. The link is in the description box and I will see you in the next with the next worksheet.
Take care, take care. Take care. Take care, take care.
