Every planetary placement has its challenges and strengths. The exaltation schema provides a clear contrast between power and pain, especially when explored through a socio-cultural lens. What skills and perspectives can planets in exaltation and fall offer each other, and how does that give us a model for reparative conduct (healing each other and the world)?
In this lecture, we will engage with the exaltation schema from the context of reparative conduct and world-building. We’ll explore the power and pain of each exalted planet and how that intersects with the pain and power of each fallen planet. The connections found in these intersections generate new ways of thinking about how we create culture through repairing our inner and outer worlds. By better understanding collective pain (fall), we can also better understand collective power (exaltation), landing us more deeply into love.
