Correspondences

Mirrors and Maps

Planetary mythology and Chinese medicine are not fate-assignments. They are symbolic correspondences — ancient languages that mirror the energetic patterns within the eight functions.

Planetary

Eleven celestial bodies as mirrors of function — Moon through Pluto, plus Faunus and Iustitia.

Chinese Medicine

Organs, meridians, the five souls, and the trigram connections.

Wu Xing

The five phases — generating and overcoming cycles, combined phenomena.

Zodiac

The twelve signs as expressions of the eight functions and four principles.
