CHAPTER XXIV.
THE TWELVE POSITIONS OF URANUS, OR HERSCHEL.
ijt : ( Uranus)
its Function.
THIS is the farthest from the sun of any planet we
use. Its influence is almost entirely of a metaphysical
character; therefore, in dealing with this planet, we
find that it affects the physical body only in the sublimated
life forces, preparing them for the higher metaphysical
uses. Its real nature and influence cannot be
fully expressed by any organism on this planet therefore
it
;
produces very strange effects upon the mind and
life ;
and its influence is less potent than that of any
other planet, except when it is in the life; that is, in
conjunction with the earth at the time of birth. It is
also potent in Libra and Scorpio for as it revolves in
;
an opposite direction from the other planets, it also acts
in an opposite direction upon the life forces, turning the
sex inclinations away from expression in that function,
and directing them upward for the uses of the brain.
The same is true, more or less, in all the signs and functions
;
for it serves as a depolarizer, turning the forces
away from the animal, toward the spiritual.

( Uranus) in V (Aries).
This stirs the mind to activity,
and gives a clear idea
of the unseen, a love for the spiritual,
and a desire for
philosophical and metaphysical research and the study
of causes. It leads the mental tendencies almost
entirely in that direction.
