<strong>The</strong> circles symbolize perfection, rhythmic movement and wholeness. <strong>The</strong><br />
fourth zodiacal impulse as well as the tenth are associated with wholeness<br />
and the rhythmical movement <strong>of</strong> the cosmic manifestation in a special<br />
manner. <strong>The</strong> right circle is linked with the arc touching it from the bottom<br />
suggesting that the residues <strong>of</strong> experience during the process <strong>of</strong> their<br />
transmutation into the Pure Essence, have to pass through a series <strong>of</strong><br />
changes bringing the entity into deeper layers <strong>of</strong> materiality.<br />
<strong>The</strong> two circles <strong>of</strong> the symbol show that Cancer represents a mini-world <strong>of</strong><br />
creative energies. At this level <strong>of</strong> manifestation there exists concretized<br />
duality as spirit and matter, form and consciousness, latency and full<br />
blossomed potency. Cancer has the unique quality <strong>of</strong> extending its realm <strong>of</strong><br />
operation from the lowest depth <strong>of</strong> human experience to the highest bliss<br />
attainable. It is the stage where intelligence has polarized, duality has<br />
become manifest and the outward evolutionary journey into the realm <strong>of</strong><br />
time and space has begun. In actual life, one finds that the Cancer born<br />
person has a wide range in which he can function. No attainment is too high<br />
or no degradation too low. Cancerians can feel at ease in the realm <strong>of</strong> matter,<br />
physical action and social relationship. At the same time they can operate in<br />
the psychic world, the plane <strong>of</strong> thought and emotions, and on the spiritual<br />
plane as well.<br />
5 LEO<br />
SIMHA<br />
<strong>The</strong> fifth sign <strong>of</strong> the zodiac, Leo, is indicated by a lion, which is the meaning<br />
<strong>of</strong> its Sanskrit name 'Simha'. Emblematically, it is represented by a circle<br />
connected with an upward curving arc at its right top corner which tapers<br />
downward with a slight twist to the right. <strong>The</strong> lion and the emblem for the<br />
Leo stand for the stage <strong>of</strong> individualization. <strong>The</strong> roaring lion indicates the<br />
individual soul separated from Anima Mundi or the world soul. It roams<br />
around the forest <strong>of</strong> chaos, the Great Illusion or Maya, and ultimately<br />
accomplishes its destiny by realizing itself. <strong>The</strong>se symbols refer to the root<br />
<strong>of</strong> the divine creative impulse. Leo enables the inner being to manifest on<br />
the outer plane. This exlernalization <strong>of</strong> the subjective essence is the outcome<br />
<strong>of</strong> the Divine creative impulse. Several stages have to be crossed before its<br />
final result is achieved.
