this is often shown through progressions . . . as the unfolding of certain attributes, delineated through interactions with the "essence / energy" of planetary signatures
will conjoin to kick-start a new way of "seeing"; spatial relationships between planets will typically manifest as external events
bringing up the chicken & egg dilemma -- did the change in consciousness "bring on" the event
or was the event designed, put in place
in order to facilitate the change in consciousness
Astrology is not a static blueprint where everything stays the same . . . it is a morphogenetic dance in which planetary "vibrations"
move towards and away from the energies of the other Planetary Lights
I look at an Astrology Chart in much the same way one might look at a seating chart for a dinner party
some planets are happy with the arrangement, some not so much
and the ways in which they work it all out during the party
will determine how happy everyone is at the end of the day
but progressions show how personality shifts and personal choices will add, or subtract
to the fun one has at the party
sometimes you start off sitting in the corner, then someone comes over and you're chill and suddenly the life of the party
but if Person A hadn't shown up, perhaps you would have sulked and hung out all night next to the cheese tray
such is life, and such is the power of Astrology
to map out if, when (and to a lesser degree, why) Person A "shows up"
and how that is likely to impact your choices moving forward
