Keywords for the Planets
![]()
Here, for each of these inhabitants of the zodiac, are some key associations and words. Our aim in moving from personality centre to soul centre (and thus integration) is to move from the words to the left to then manifest the energies of each planet through the words to the right and then onwards to the esoteric manifestations. If you click on the symbol for each planet it will take you to the esoteric meanings of each one. Then click back on your browser to return.
