I was wondering if anyone knows and wants to share information about what meaning the Sabian symbol of your birthday has in your life. I know they say something about considering the one before and after your birthday too, but I have no idea what these could represent. Any information welcome. Thanks,
Zelmira
Gosh I am so sorry I usually visit AT much more frequently but I was blessed with a trip to the centre of Australia - but Im back!
Zelmira - I offer some thoughts below - they are a collection of my thoughts and thoughts of others I have learnt from - Lynda Hill, Elven etc...
Karmic Condition Focus Quest
the sabian symbol directly before your birthday sabian symbol is known as your Karmic Condition, and the sabian symbol directly after, known as your Quest. The astrological information on either side of your Focus gives valuable insight into your astrology.
Karmic Condition is the mission you have set out on, and the tools you have available to you to succeed.
Focus is your strength and power source, your movement through life.
Quest sheds light onto the outcome and experience; it is the culmination of your efforts.
Example: Born on the 19th of August, the Focus is a Rainbow. (in my book I associate each degree with a crystal as listed below)
Leo 25
Karmic Condition
Desert Rose
sabian symbol A large camel crossing the desert
Leo 26
Focus
Rainbow Fluorite
Sabian symbol A rainbow
Leo 27
Quest
Citrine
Sabian symbol Daybreak
I see the sabian symbols like a best friend - I try to give them as much as they give me - I see them as signs - warning signes signs of hope - a friend to ride the good and the bad with.... a guide to being who I am - but more than that I suppose its an insight.. its up to me to see how that works in my life - its it physically or metaphysically, spiritually, emotionally or is it just the colour, location, description that resonates with me...
my sun symbol is

I hope I am moving into a place where I
Compassionately mirror myself in others, hopeful that it is returned (increasing unconditional love and peace)
I hope I am moving towards being a carer- nurtere and protector... communicating kindness and love to those I meet.
My Affirmation for this degree is: I invite mutual love and devotion into my life.
so I am also looking more and more to invite and live in a life of spiritual awareness.
