          <\/em><\/strong>  In the 21st<\/sup>C, human developmental psychology has largely left 20th<\/sup>C theorists such as Sigmund Freud & Jean Piaget in its rearview mirror; and, of course, astrology was left behind long before this psychology appeared as a field of academic study; CLICK HERE<\/a> for FA\u2019s discussion of the degree to which this vitally important field is short-changing its history and pre-history<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

           <\/em><\/strong> \u201cDevelopmental astrology\u201d is the \u201csaviour\u201d of \u201cthe individual\u201d. To be so, astrology first needs to be \u201csaved\u201d from \u201ctraditional astrology\u201d (i) Ptolemy\u2019s incorrect \u201cregressive\u201d \u20181<\/u>–12<\/u>–11<\/u>–10<\/u>–9<\/u>\u2019  was \u201csaved\u201d by Copernicus, (ii) \u201811<\/u> Lamarck\u2019\u2019s incorrect idea of \u201cstriving to improve &\/or perfect\u201d was \u201csaved\u201d by Darwin & (iii) the \u20181<\/u>–12<\/u>–11<\/u> trick\u2019 of Satan \u2013 that the future can be \u201cconsciously\u201d \u20189<\/u> divined\u2019 & \u201810<\/u> controlled\u2019 \u2013 was \u201csaved\u201d by Freud.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

            <\/em><\/strong>The astronomical-biological concordance between the perpetually anti-clockwise Lunar cycle & the menstrual cycle is the basis of \u201clife cycle astrology\u201d\u2026 that, itself, is the basis of \u201cdevelopmental astrology\u201d (e.g. Freud-astrology, Klein-astrology, Jung-astrology, Piaget-astrololgy); as important as Anna Freud\u2019s conception of \u201csecondary autonomy\u201d is, \u201cego psychologists\u201d do well to prioritize \u201ctertiary autonomy\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

            <\/em><\/strong>When \u201cindividuality\u201d is sought, astrology can flatter-to-deceive insofar as the birth horoscope highlights \u201cthe individual\u201d\u2026 but, then, it receives a \u201ccollective\u201d interpretation with an \u201castrological cookbook\u201d. More concerningly, \u201cthe individual\u201d is often narrowed down to the 1st<\/sup> house of the birth horoscope, a house that is often taken to feed-(back)-up into the collectivistic-pathogenic 4th<\/sup> quadrant. The \u20184<\/u> I.C.\u2019 is \u201cme-in-here\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

            <\/em><\/strong>\u201cThe individual\u201d does well to leave the ascendant behind at the earliest opportunity & establish a strong sense of \u201cself\u201d in the 4th<\/sup> house, strong enough to process endogamous \u201ccomplexes\u201d & to set sights on further development \u2018up-into\u2019 the exogamous 3rd<\/sup> quadrant; clockwise conceptions of the horoscope indicate an attraction to collectives that, when acted upon, instigate unbalanced power trips & psychopathologies<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
