There is a passage in the bible that seems to describe the symbol for the sign of Aquarius:
As you enter the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him to the house that he enters, and say to the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?’ He will show you a large room upstairs, all furnished. Make preparations there. Luke 22:7
Astro-theologists have interpreted this passage to be a nod to the Age of Aquarius. Aquarius is the man holding the jar of water. This is particularly so because women did not carry water in biblical days, but the sign of Aquarius has been represented by a man holding a jar since ancient Mesopotamia.[ Babylonians identified Aquarius as Gula, “The Great One.” Gula was also known as “the Irrigator,” who harnessed the power of rain and floods. Gula was often depicted with fish swimming in the streams flowing from his shoulders. He’s also seen pouring water from an urn or holding an overflowing vase over the earth.] In fact, as an astrologer, if you read the bible you will see astrological symbols littered throughout. Easy to miss for those who don’t study the stars, but obvious for those who do. This is likely what is meant by ‘for those who have eyes to see’. Everything is hidden in plain view.
On December 7th, 2024 a ceremony to re-open Notre Dame de Paris was commenced with dignitaries which included the President of France, Marcon, President Trump of the USA, Prince William, and many others. The Cathedral dramatically burned almost to the ground in 2019 in an event that many saw as a massive sign of the times. The Catholic Church had been experiencing a dramatic loss of status in the eyes of the faithful with countless scandals involving sexualized abuse of children and other scandals.
Shortly after the fire, many discovered that lying beneath the Cathedral was the remains of a Roman temple dedicated to Jupiter. The truth however is that Notre Dame was the location of a Celtic/Gaul place of worship before that. It is said that the Gauls named it Parisi after the Gaul word meaning a boat; depicting the shape of the island that the Cathedral sits on. Some, however, have claimed that Paris is Par (for) Is (Isis). Notre Dame means “our lady”.
The day of the re-opening was highly significant. Pluto, Ceres and Venus lined up at 0 degrees of Aquarius. Aquarius has been consistently associated with technology, machines, and anything futuristic. It’s also been associated with communism, groups and friendships. Some have linked Pluto in Aquarius with secret societies. And secret society has been associated with the Notre Dame Cathedral.
Ceres is the mother of Persephone, who Pluto stole into the underworld. She is nurturing and in Aquarius, she nurtures individuality and accepts our uniqueness. As a mother, she provides freedom to be. Sometimes too much freedom, which results in us needing to define our boundaries and limits.
Pluto is the planet of transformation. He drags us, as he did Persephone, into the underworld. He’s only just arrived in Aquarius and over the next 19 years will transform our experience of humanity; our freedoms, uniqueness, innovations, individuality and individual expression. Our experiences of groups, friends and associations are also set to transform. Pluto newly in Aquarius is why we care about what happens around the re-opening of Notre Dame as the events in the early days are a setup for what we can expect over its duration.
The planet Venus represents love, our values and relationships. In various times and in various cultures Venus has been Aprhodite, Istar, Inanna, Isis. In esoteric Christianity, Venus is associated with Mary Magdelene and the divine feminine. Some have equated Venus in the underworld (when she has transited too close to the sun to be able to see her) with Persephone (Rome and Greece) and Erishgigal (Mesopotamia). Venus right now in Aquarius is high in the night sky shining brightly and she can be said to represent a version of Venusian energy that is in her power. Unique. Individual. Filled with love, peace, and compassion for humanity. Confident and rebellious she is individualistic, non-conforming and a seeker. Esoterically she loves astrology and she can show us the meaning of the man with the Jar. In so doing she expresses the side of Aquarius that is electric energy; tulluric, and cosmic.
But this is the expression of each of these planets in Aquarius on their own. What do they look like operating together?
Ceres is associated with food and grain and it’s where we get the name cereal. During her sorrows, when she was mourning the loss of her daughter, Ceres starved the nations, causing drought and famine. Many with Pluto and Ceres conjunct in their charts suffer from food disorders. With these two together in the sign of Aquarius, we may see her lash out and reverse her Aquarian nurturing, limiting our uniqueness and freedom instead. Ceres stands beside Pluto in Aquarius at a critical degree making what happens here of even more importance. However, Venus combined with Ceres brings together a value and love of nurturing freedom, creative innovation, unique beauty, and uniqueness of thought and style. Venus gives Ceres what she needs, and fulfills something inside.
The truth is the three of them together may swing back and forth between the extremes of loss and loving.
But Pluto is also alchemical. Alchemy requires processes of calcination, dissolution, separation, conjunction, fermentation, distillation and coagulation. The entire process is meant to transform material or us into purified gold.
The moon makes an applying conjunction to Saturn. Saturn in Pisces is weakened while the Moon in Pisces is strengthened. Cancer is rising and the Moon it’s ruler is in the 9th house of religion. Pisces, the sign of the moon in this chart, is the higher octave of Venus. It’s unconditional love, but Pisces ruled by Jupiter, is in the 11th house of groups opposite the Sun and Mercury retrograde. Jupiter, the Sun and Mercury retrograde are in the Gemini/Sagittarius polarity, which is about religion, belief, and thought. This entire combination with the Moon, its ruler and the aspects to its ruler points to a struggle that remains with belief and fanaticism, church and the true meaning of faith and spirituality. It feigns unconditional love and still needs to figure out its true meaning. After all, it was Jupiter that the Romans built their temple to remind us of the remains of the Roman empire. Jupiter is in the twin sign of Gemini; The twin towers of Notre Dame did not fall during the fire of 2019 so structures of Catholicism remain. But while the exoteric Catholic structure remains, so too does the esoteric… the hermetically sealed as revealed in the Picture of the Archbishop banging on the doors.
The ceremony for the re-opening of Notre Dame consisted of singing Psalm 121[ On the church’s website they post Psalm 121 (it’s Psalm 122).] three times in response to the Archbishop banging on the front door with his staff (or crozier). He then entered followed by President Macron (Pluto)? his wife (Venus)? and Jill Biden (Ceres)? This may have been the Church’s (and the elite’s) attempt at the embodiment of this energy! But we notice something else. As the Archbishop bangs on the door with his electric blue glassed crosier, beside him is the iconic bass relief depicting what Fulcanelli calls the primitive substance or elementary matter (mother), the Prima Materia in alchemy.

This is what Fulcinelli says of the bass relief:
In the place of honour, facing the parvis, alchemy is represented by a woman, with her head touching the clouds. Seated on a throne, she holds in her left hand a sceptre, the sign of royal power, while her right hand supports two books, one closed (esotericism), the other open (exotericism). Supported between her knees and leaning against her chest, is the ladder with nine rungs-scala philosophorum-hiero-‘\ glyph of the patience which the faithful must possess in the course of the nine successive operations of the hermetic labour ‘Patience is the Philosophers’ ladder,’ Valoisl tells us, ‘and humility is the door to their garden; for whosoever will persevere without pride and without envy, on him God will show mercy.’ That is the title of the philosophical chapter of this Mutus Liber, the gothic cathedrai; the frontispiece of this occult Bible, with its massive pages of stone; the imprint, the seal of the secular Great Work on the very face of the Christian Great Work. It could not be better situated than on the very threshold of the main entrance. Thus the cathedral appears to be based on alchemical science, on the science which investigates the transformations of the original substance, elementary matter (Lat. materea, root muter mother). For the Virgin Mother, stripped of her symbolical veil, is none other than the personification of the primitive substance, used by the Principle, the creator of all that is, for the furtherance of his designs. This is the meaning (and, indeed, a very clear one) of this strange epithet, which we read in the Mass of the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin, of which the text reads : The Lord possessed me at the beginning of his ways. I existed before he formed any creature, I existed from all eternity, before the earth was created. The abysses were not yet and already I was conceived. The fountains had not yet come out of the earth, the heavy mass of the mountains had not yet been formed*, I was begotten before the hills. He had created neither the earth, nor the rivers, nor strengthened the world on its poles. When he prepared the heavens, I was present; when he confined the abysses within their bounds and prescribed an inviolable law; when he confirmed the air above the earth; when he balanced the waters of the fountains; when he shut up the sea within its limits and imposed a law on the waters, so that they should not pass their bounds; when he laid the foundations of the earth, I was with him and I regulated all things.’ Obviously what is dealt with here is the very essence of things. Indeed, the Litanies tell us that the Virgin is the Vase containing the Spirit of things: vas spirituale. ‘On a table, breast high to the Magi,’ Etteila 2 tells us, ‘were on one side a book or a series of golden pages or plates (the book of Thoth) and on the other side a vase full of celestial-astral liquid, consisting of one part of wild honey, one part of terrestial water and a third part of celestial water. . . . The secret, the mystery was therefore in this vase.’
And here we return to the Aquarian jar (vase) and its contents – The divine feminine. The Goddess! In the Jar of Aquarius is the spirit, found in water. Notre Dame, as with all of the Gothic Cathedrals, was built on “clear waters”. Waters that Fulcinelli calls “dry”. Waters that the Druids/Gauls/Celtics all accessed before the Catholic Church and before the Romans without the need for a building. The waters consist of “everything needed for the great work”
In the Church are world leaders, celebrities and billionaires. Salma Hayek was there with her billionaire husband who donated millions for the rebuilding. They, the leaders and elites, are represented in the chart by Mars which is stationary retrograde in Leo. They oppose the transformative Aquarian energy and bring a domineering, thwarting energy. They see themselves as the needed parents of society and create a suffocating presence. Mars is retrograde though and so their attempts to control will be greatly debilitated. Actions that are egotistical and narcissistic will not go over well.
Interestingly, Salma Hayek played the character Esmeralda in the 1997 television film adaptation of The Hunchback of Notre Dame. In the story, Esmeralda is a woman who both the hunchback, Quasimodo and the priest fall in love with. Esmeralda gets into trouble and Quasimodo gives her safety in Notre Dame to prevent her from hanging for a crime she did commit. The Priest in love with her, turns to dark ways in an attempt to own and control her. When he cannot, she is thrown out and meets her death. Esmeralda represents the divine feminine who society condemned and the church sought to control. Those days are on their way out!
The Sabian Symbol is An old adobe mission. This speaks about projecting ideals onto structures of beauty in the search for an ideal. The adobe mission like Notre Dame are structures that seek to create a temple for the pursuit of an ideal.
But the true temple, the true cathedral is the individual!
You can visit Notre Dame, and you can even seek out the esoteric knowledge hidden in plain sight on the front door base relief (the door is canopied with seven spheres depicting the way through the seven spheres and is surrounded by base reliefs providing knowledge of the path of true spiritual growth) the truth is we are the temple and the land, the clear waters of Notre Dame, like many of the lands where Cathedrals are built, will provide us all the support we need in our transformation and personal growth, whether there is a cathedral of not!
The new moon is at 1 degree of Aquarius. Aquarius represents technology (computers, artificial intelligence), media (including social media), groups and networks (humanitarian and political) and innovations, but, it is also a deeply spiritual sign! Many think that Aquarius is secular, representing communism which rejects belief or religion. The symbol of Aquarius is represented by a man pouring out water from a jar.
