Culture, milieu..the tropical zodiac

Simply stated, our very culture..

(Etymology From Latin cultūra (“cultivation; culture”), from cultus, perfect passive participle of colō (“till, cultivate, worship”) (related to colōnus and colōnia), from earlier *quelō, from Proto-Indo-European *kel-(“to move; to turn (around)”

It's deepest language of archetypes is fully rooted in the dual system we call astrology. (The duality being a combination of the tropical & sidereal zodiac) or the cosmic and the mundane really. Of course mundane astrology is really the study of collective political.. of course none of this is separate.. politics from anything. The self, large and small. The cosmic to the seasonal spiral forward.. astride all of our polarities.. it is prior to belief.
Astrology is not a God which requires our belief. It is kind of like one fish asking of another fish, if they believe in this thing called water..??
I will continue adding to this post more examples of how "astrology" is all around and up in it.

Of course in this image/label (below), the "zodiac" is divided up into too many polarities.. 8. Or what would be considered 16 houses. The natural zodiac is made up of 6 polarities or 12 archetypes/houses/signs..

Regardless, it begins with the 4. Otherwise known as the equal arm cross. One of the most fundamental symbols on earth. Or really OF Earth really.. AS Earth.. the cross of matter becoming..the wheel.. in the Tropical zodiac, to which our human Earth bound cults of belief/religeons largely refer, this cross is found in/tied to the seasons. The reasons for the seasons. And the seasons for the reasons as it were..

Let us look at the definition of CULTURE one again.. "to till/cultivate as we/it turns circles" (spirals really, as we will never return to the exact same place twice)...

"The term zodiac derives from Latin zōdiacus, which in its turn comes from the Greek ζδιακς κύκλος (zōdiakos kuklos), meaning "circle of animals"

With this..the animals and seasons of the zodiac turning, we cultivate the self-same soul or center that is everywHERE. Well, really this self-same soul center is already. What we are really cultivating and refining is the "animals"/ representations and signs of our becoming. The evolution of our parts. The qualities and motivations of beingness.
