Galactic Center, the Higher Self

Saturn is the physical self, the Moon is the emotional self and the Sun is the mental self. They are the three centers of consciousness that direct the energy of the tool planets (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and the main asteroid belt).


The Galactic Center is the Higher Self, the center of consciousness that directs the energy of the spiritual planets (Uranus, Neptune and the transneptunian objects).


Power of the High (image of the 34th hexagram of I-Ching)

The thunder, the electric force, rises in spring towards the high. This movement is in harmony with the trend of Heaven. Is, then, a movement that coincide with Heaven, circumstance that originates high power. But the true greatness is found in being in harmony with what is right. Therefore the noble, during times of high power, makes sure in not doing anything that does not reconcile with keeping order. (Richard Wilhelm, 1923; "I CHING. Book of Changes")

Galactic Center, the Development Plan designed by the Soul

The Galactic Center represents what Jung described as the Self, which emerges from the totality of the psyche (subconscious, conscious, superconscious states) and at the same time controls and reorganizes the activity of the parts. Due to the activity of the Self is in some way aware, it is also usually called Higher Self or Higher Consciousness. It is the organizer center that regulates the psychic development, through which occurs the process of individuation.


The Galactic Center also represents what Annie Marquier described as the Soul, which is responsible for attracting and coordinating the various elements of our lives in accordance with the Plan of Individual Development. This plan is designed depending on our karmic past and our future potential, and is updated at any moment depending on the learning process.
