Loading ...While I have not yet finished listening to the video, I feel compelled to point out that Mr. Cioccolanti is in error in that at 19:33/34 he said the only woman in the sky is the constellation Virgo. There are two other women depicted as constellations in the sky for a total of three: Virgo, of which he speaks and
Andromeda, representing the 2nd decanate or the Pisces-Cancer decanate of Self-Sacrifice:
Andromeda constellation
Andromeda is one of the 48 constellations listed by the 2nd-century Greco-Roman astronomer Ptolemy and remains one of the 88 modern constellations. Located north of the celestial equator, it is named for Andromeda, daughter of Cassiopeia, in the Greek myth, who was chained to a rock to be eaten by the sea monster Cetus.

Cassiopeia, representing the 3rd decanate or the Pisces-Scorpio decanate of Vicissitudes, also known as the Cloak of Death or the Tree of Life
Cassiopeia constellation
Cassiopeia is a constellation in the northern sky, named after the vain queen Cassiopeia in Greek mythology, who boasted about her unrivalled beauty. Cassiopeia was one of the 48 constellations listed by the 2nd-century Greek astronomer Ptolemy, and it remains one of the 88 modern constellations today. It is easily recognizable due to its distinctive ‘W’ shape, formed by five bright stars. It is opposite the Big Dipper.
Naturally, the astronomers who wrote about Ptolemy neglected to mention that he was also an astrologer…and I know this because I am in possession of his book “Ptolemy’s Tetrabiblos.”
As to the constellation Virgo…Virgo is an earthy sign and to those who understand stellar doctrine, the Sun’s entrance into this sign symbolizes the descent of the soul into matter. Such traditions are among the oldest in Egypt and Chaldea.
Long before the Christian era the Egyptians honored Isis, the Virgin Mother, with yearly pageants and processions of virgins who carried sistrums in their hands; and we are all quite familiar with the Christian adaptation of the story of the immaculate conception and how the Virgin Mother, warned of the enmity of Herod, fled for a time into the land of Egypt.
Egypt was ever considered by Bible characters as the land of darkness and as the Virgin persecuted by Herod sojourned for a time in the dark land of Egypt, so also the Sun, immediately after its station in the sky pictured by the Virgin, must pass across to the dark half of the year for a time, where the nights are longer than the days.
Thus it was taught that Mother Earth is the place of the soul’s gestation; and that after the preparatory development which is supplied by the earth – after it has partaken of the fruit of the tree of good and evil which alone enables it to acquire knowledge – it will be born into a more glorious life.
Furthermore, because Virgo is the harvest sign, in addition to revealing the necessity of the trials and tribulations of earth to teach us wisdom, and that after such necessary preparation there will be a passing from the physical to be born into a new and better life on a higher plane, it teaches that as we sow so shall we reap.
At all times we are sowing in the soil of our own consciousness. We are building thoughts into ourselves of various kinds. In turn, when sufficient energy has been supplied to these thought-cells to give them strength, they work to attract events of a similar quality into the life.
Therefore, the great lesson of the constellation Virgo is that to reap harmony, success and happiness in life one must sow thoughts of harmony.
It is no accident that directly across the heavens from the constellation of Virgo and its Garden of Eden we find the constellation of Pisces…the other two heavenly ladies…and the Tree of Life.
