Good morning people. Welcome to the Progressive.
I want to talk to you something interesting today.
In this series we will try to speak about
the various aspects of the human being which come out in the
twelve ascended. So first one in the foremost and the most bad as being
the ego. Everybody has ego issues. So we will talk about the ego issues.
How it plays out in the twelve ascended. So follow this
brief presentation and you will see what I mean with respect to the houses
etc etc the diamond chart. So ego and how it plays out in our life
in different areas for different ascended.
Just think of it as twelve colours of rainbow
if you will. Not seven this time twelve.
So everything is about twelve. Even in the new energies everything is about twelve.
There is a hint right there. So follow this presentation
and we will take it step by step. I had to do it in the presentation format
so it will go quickly. Keep following the presentation.
Take care. Have a nice day.
Welcome again people. So we spoke about the soul, the sun
the self, the ego. So the ego is basically
signified in Melika's psychology by the sun. The sun is also the
soul. Now why these two dichotomies? Why these two aspects?
One is called the ego, one is called the higher ego or the higher self.
Well when the soul comes to play it comes to play in the ascendance
and it plays through the twelve signs in different ways.
But when it comes as an embodied self, when the soul which is pure
abstract awareness of all that is, when it comes into the body
it assumes the form and shape of an ego. It has to have
an identity, a standpoint or perspective. Where
are you going to measure the perspective from? It's every time individual, isn't it?
So the sun or the soul's self just to recap
what is the sun's stand for? This is the symbol of the sun right there.
It stands for what? It stands for a sense of self, ego, fame,
recognition. The self-illuminating principle
of the soul is the ego. This is a self-illuminating principle.
Meaning it does not require illumination from an external source.
It wants to find its illumination in and of itself.
That's why it feels the ego. It's a
significator of all ascendants. The first house is where the sun shines.
One of the places where sun shines also is the tenth place
but the first house very predominantly. For all ascendants
so if you are a Virgo or a Gemini even if
the ascendant is governed by Mercury, sun is shining through
Mercury through your head because first house is also the place
of the head. So all our difficulties lie, isn't it? The constant
mind chatter. What I feel like. Where is the eye residing? It's the residing
in the head. Everybody's ego is in the head all the time.
So it gives light to every other lord of the first house.
Every lord of the first house. For all the 12 ascendants, sun shines in the first house.
It's the karaka. It's a significator.
It's also the nari-shar, the father figure. The authority figure. Sun loves
authority. It loves direction towards itself. That's the ego.
Ego loves direction towards itself. It says look at me.
The look at me principle of the ego is the sun.
It's the sole light of the ego which wants to shine
through expression, knowledge, pursuits, wants to express
presence, ego and authority in this. That's the sun. That's what it wants.
Sun's place in the chart determines where the ascendant wants to show its presence
this lifetime around. It's just this lifetime. Even if you
have taken 12 birds and you have gone through all the 12 ascendants, you know pretty much
what it feels like to be under each ascendant. This is why the souls take multiple
lifetimes to learn. Where the sole light through ego is felt
strongly. This is just a recap. Now let's see through the ascendants.
This is the ascendant chart. Aries, first one.
So where do the aries people feel the ego, the maximum?
We have to look for the house of the sun. In this case, it's in the
fifth house. The fifth house stands for education, creativity, romance,
creative, intelligence, love, children and all kinds
of basic education. This house number five. This is the house of
the sun. So one through 12 ascendants, we will be
looking at wherever five falls in. So for the aries
it falls in the house of education and children.
So for an aries man or woman, they will be looking
at this area of their life to
feel their maximum ego. Their egotistical sense of
accomplishment will be felt in the fifth house. They might
be egotistical towards their children. They might want to dominate
their children if especially sun is present here.
They might want to dominate in quality if the sun is actually present here. This is the house
of the sun. Number five is the house of the sun. Physical placement is different
for every ascendant.
But this is where the person wants to feel their ego. They want to feel their ego in their
education perhaps. They might want to be very well educated, their aries people.
Because they feel their ego there. If I am
not well educated, if I don't have n number of professional degrees to my name, who am I?
Where do I belong? All these kind of things the
aries ascendant wants to feel and not a woman.
Very strong egotistical attachment felt in the fifth house.
They might be strongly romantic people. Because this is also
the house of love and romance. They might be very romantic
guys or women. So they might feel their
ego present. If they are refused in love or if
they are not getting the word here. If they are
unsuccessful in their courtships and their love relationships
there is going to be a big ego hurt felt. Because
house number five is ruling that for the aries ascendant.
One more reason. One more place
is creative intelligence. These people might want to associate
everything with creativity. They might want to make their presence
felt in their creative endeavors. Because this is where their ego
is felt again. Wherever house number five decides
for every single ascendant you will feel ego more strongly. Let's go to the next
one. For the aries ascendant. Number five
has now shifted to house number four. So in the fourth
house which is for home and family. The aries will feel strong
egotistical presence there. They might since it's the house of
the enemy for this ascendant. Because Venus is
ruling the first house. Venus and Sun are not friends with each other.
It's an enemy house for the Taurus. The fourth house. And now Sun has landed there.
So they might be enemy-killed towards their spouse
towards their kids. They might have forgotten
energy of enemy. And they might shower it on
their house home front. Because there is an enemy there.
Also they will have a strong egotistical attachment towards their
home front. Meaning they might be
their dark sides or their shadow aspects of
self which is ego basically. Might show up strongly
in their homes. They might show it off with their spouse.
They might show it off with their kids. They might show it off if they are staying with parents
and so on so forth. Not a very good place for the
Torian ascendants. And when you say ascendants we mean lagna
as they call in Sanskrit it's called lagna. The lagna is more important
because of this. Where is your lagna? Where is your ascendant pointing towards?
In this case the lagna is Taurus or Rishabarashi
as they call it. So
Torians will feel more on the
home front. There
will be more ego in their home front. If they have good houses
if they have good environments to live in they will feel
ego through that. Look I have a 3 bedroom house or a 4 bedroom house
or I have a good house to stay in. They will feel their ego
in that. But since this is an enemy sign it's like they have
lots of tussles at home. Torians have natural tussles
at home. Doesn't matter what the other planets are because this is an enemy house for them.
This is crucial to understand for every ascendant.
It goes whether the friend or the enemy is there
because that's where they are perceiving things from. They are perceiving things
from the ascendant. So obviously everything is measured from the head.
Next one the
Germany people. Germany is ruled by Mercury.
House number 3 comes in so they are very mentally driven.
That's the first aspect. House number 5
here for them lands in house number 3. The sign number 5
lands in house number 3 or the house of skills or the hands.
The handset is where shoulders and hands
is what house number 3 physically stands for as per Vedic astrology.
These people it's a friendly sign but where will they
feel their ego? Their ego or their sense of self is very strongly
attached. Sense of self
is not voting today. Their sense of self
is very strongly attached to their
skill sets. House number 3 is for skill sets. It's for their communication.
It's for their intelligence which is used in communication. In social
media these people might be very dominant in social media.
The Germany people. Germany ascendant.
So this is where they will feel their
ego the most. It also stands for physical
intimacy. So wherever it comes to physical intimacy with their spouses
these people might be wanting to dominate that area. They are very dominant
in the area of physical intimacy with their partners
because number 5 is ruling the third house
which also stands for physical intimacy. It stands for social communication
social media. It stands for hand skills. If you are a very handy person
art and crafts may be depending upon where the venous is
that's where they will feel their ego as well.
Next on our list cancer. Cancer
ascendant number 4 it's ruled in the ascendant by the moon.
So straight off they have more emotional inclination towards
everything. They will drag emotions all over the place.
And sign number 5 comes in house number 2 the second house as you can see
here. So the sign of Leo comes
in the second house. Second house is for face. It's for
all the aspects of the face. Your physical, facial features
your facial appearance. They have a lot of egotistical
attachment towards their physical beauty. Their face. Because face
is where the most of the ego lies of a person. So people keep
admiring themselves in the mirror all the time. Because it's the face. It gives you a sense
of ego there. For cancer it is very predominant because
house number 5 itself lands in the second house. It's friendly sign for them
so there's not much of an issue. But for cancer ascendant
if you want to flatter them, if they are your spouse or friends
just compliment them on their face and they will be all filled with themselves.
Leo now the
house number 5 lands in the head. When the house number 5 lands in the
head itself, the person by default without requiring
anything want all the attention towards themselves.
This is the most egotistical sign of all because they want all the
attention which is going to their head all the time.
This includes the face by the way like the cancer but Leo
since number 5 is landing in the mind, the first house
and son is the caracal of the first house. So
it is the son house of the son supported by the son's house.
It's like a double whammy of kinds. These
people that's why Leo ascendants can be highly egotistical. The Simmarashi
Simmalagna. The lagna is Simha
or the lion or the Leo. So these people
will be egotistical by default. You cannot
defeat that. This is what they have to learn to temperate with their
other signs. They have to learn to work with their home and family
with their kids, with their spouses, with their
higher knowledge, go into spirituality. All these friend signs they must move into
to discover more and recalibrate that
aspect which can become very egotistical and make it
more aligned with a higher self.
For Virgo ascendants,
number 5, sign number 5 comes in the 12th house. As you can see we are
all going backward in the scheme of things. So for Leo
it was here. So for Virgo it is there. For Libra it is going to be there
and so on and so forth. So for Virgo
your house, sign number 5 lands in
house number 12, the 12th house as you can see. The 12th house stands
for spirituality renunciation. So they find their ego
which is very ironical to find ego in the house of spirituality but
that's the fact. How much spiritual knowledge
they think they have, mind the words, they think they
have or they will go on showing off that I have learned this
I have read so and so books on spirituality because this is still an earth
sign. Virgo is the earth sign and they
are ruled very much by practicality of the mercury.
But they want to show it off as an ego factor because
Sun rules the 12th house to all their family, friends and so on.
Spiritual knowledge is like a feather in the cap for
Virgo ascendants.
Kind of a strange energy but yeah.
For the Libra people, the Tula Lagna people
the house number 5 falls in
sorry, sign the Leo
sign number 5 falls in house number 11, the 11th house.
This will make
Libra's seek the maximum
recognition, the fame or the recognition in the community, in the
worldwide community, in the worldwide web or the larger community of people.
All their life they will be seeking recognition there.
Another place where you can see for every ascendant is the seeking of recognition.
That's where house number 5 falls in. That's where they are seeking their recognition.
That's where they want to feel themselves the strongest.
The drive to feel strongest.
So these people will seek recognition in the community, in the
worldwide web network or social media and so on and so forth.
That's an enemy house for Libra because it's the house of the sun which is
antithesis to Venus.
So they might find a lot of enemies in social media and the social community but this is
where they seek it. They feel very happy with their ego or
sense of achievement if they achieve some recognition in social media.
That's what they will be seeking.
For Scorpio they will seek in the 5th house.
For Scorpio, all these kind of aspects of ego are
very crazy in a way because Scorpio are very introverted sign.
8 is very introverted, secretive, manipulative
and introverted internal sign.
For you to be seeking recognition in career
in your work is very strong. You feel very well recognized
and you get an ego boost or feel
on the downside you might be very narcissistic person because you are an introvert.
If you find recognition in your career
because it comes in the 10th house, 10th house is the house of career, fame, recognition.
Whatever work you are doing in the external world means a lot
to the Scorpio people. What do my friends think?
What do my colleagues think? What do my business partners think?
It's very important to Scorpio as in people because
their sun is shining here.
For the Sagittarius ascendant people
it will be going towards the 9th house.
Sign number 5, the Leo Falsen 9th house.
9th house is for higher education, knowledge, foreign lands.
You might want to get more recognition in foreign countries. You might even want to desire that.
I want to go to America and make it there.
I want to make myself a millionaire, billionaire. Sagittarius ascendant
are driven towards finding higher knowledge, higher education
9th house stands for higher education, foreign lands,
philosophy, all of these kinds of things. So if the house of sun
falls there, they will seek their recognition
and fame from this aspect.
That's very strong for the Sagittarius people
because Leo is ruling that 9th house for them.
For the Capricorn, it's in the enemy
house because Capricorn is ruled in the ascendant by Saturn which is the enemy of sun.
Saturn is all about others
and sun is all about me, I, me, myself. Now this falls in the 8th house.
In the 8th house is the house of secrets.
It's a house of very treasures. It's a house of
physical intimacy, life after marriage, intimate life of a marriage,
in-laws, hidden treasures, whatever is buried underground
it's a house of unerthing secrets, treasures,
sudden changes of life.
So they might find their ego in intimate aspects.
Why? Because Capricorn wants to feel things physically.
Physical intimacy is very important for the Capricorn ascendant.
Everything is felt in an earthly fashion. They want to feel stuff.
And this being the house of physical intimacy
this is where they will feel a lot in terms of
bad pleasures and all that physical intimate stuff with their spouse.
They might have secret affairs. This is an enemy house for Capricorn
so they might not do very well in this terms.
Why? Because 5th house is ruled by sun.
It's an enemy of Saturn. So they might find
continuous challenges through their life with respect to
physical intimacy aspects that they seek. Saturn wants to see all
grounded stuff.
Coming to the house of Aquarius, that house
5 falls in the house of spouse. They might have
anemical spouse. They might be anemical towards the spouse because Saturn
is opposite the sun. House of Saturn which is the
ascendant here, go ruled by Rahu. Also Uranus if you want to go there.
is looking at the spouse itself
your spouse, your business partner or all about
other 7, house number 7 is house of everybody else other than you.
Starts with the intimate relationships. That's where your other aspect
come out significantly. The Navamsa or whatever you want to call it.
Here these people might become very anemical towards
spouse. They might feel if they have dominated
one of the aspects of Saturn is to dominate. It's a rebel
of sorts. It's rebellious towards its spouse. So if it does
its job well, if it tries to dominate the
spouse, they will feel their ego there.
In this case Aquarius becomes very
narcissistic in this way. They have a tendency
to go very narcissistic with respect to their spouse. Because house number
5 is falling and it's an enemy sign for them.
Pisces ascendant, it falls
under house number 6 which is for daily
work. So for the Pisces ascendant, they will find
their sense of egoistic satisfaction
in the house of daily work. So they might want to
find themselves or go and move for
how they work in their daily
routines, in their daily grind as they say. So whatever daily
work these people are doing, they will find a lot of satisfaction and a lot of
ego attached there. You cannot criticize the Pisces for their
whatever work they are doing. They will be very angry. They will lash out at you.
Because when anybody is attacked in their ego or
feel like that, they will rebel. It's a touchy area. Number 5 is
touchy area for every one of us. It's also the house of enemies,
disease, etc. So if this house is not well placed, these persons
might have a number of health issues as well.
So that ladies and gentlemen is my think
on where the ego falls for each one of
the 12 ascendants. Take care, be safe and
have a good day.
