Elenbaas, Adam – The Esoteric Doctrines of the Essential Dignities

In this talk, we will seek to uncover some of the secret, esoteric meanings of the essential dignities. We will specifically explore categories, like “rulership” and “detriment,” as well as “exaltation” and “fall.” Where do these categories come from, what do they mean, and why did we ever start using them in the first place? Are these just outworn, prescriptive artifacts of a bygone astrological era, or have they always contained deeper teachings about the mind, reality, and consciousness itself?
