In "Universal Astrology" it is understood that the basic building blocks of astrology are the same regardless of the systems used. Here is an analogy. Whether you build a house in the United States, China, India, South America -- if the house is going to stand and be structurally sound, the same principles of architecture must be followed. Dwellings must be erected with supports on four corners, buttressed in certain ways, be built on flat ground, with a pitched roof, et cetera. If these rules of architecture are not followed, natural laws like gravity, rainfall, erosion will destroy the house quickly. These are the constants of architecture, the mechanical underpinnings that allow for the structure to stand solid and sturdy.

"Anchoring Principles" - No matter which system you are using, the Sun is always referred to in the same way – so is Venus – so is the Moon, Mars, et cetera. The same is the case with astrology houses, the common reference points as measured from the rising sign. They will be the same no matter which system you're using. The eighth house will always be just about to disappear below the horizon, the 10th house will be right overhead, et cetera. The same is true with the astrology signs and/or stellar portions of the sky.

By going deeply into each Anchoring Principle - by focusing on the common, holistic principles they share - an enormous amount of depth is revealed. This depth focuses any system of astrology, because it is deeper than the systems themselves. Anchoring Principles are like the brick and mortar that allow a Chinese architect to build a home in Texas or France, using Chinese or Western architecture.

"Anchoring Principle of the Moon"

The capacity to Receive, Feel and Integrate 
comes from the moon. A life of heart centered 
connection and peace of mind is the goal of the Moon. 
Dismantling our emotional protective strategies 
with vulnerability and courage gives rise to the 
innocent, perceptive mind of the present moment. This 
purity and innocence refers to the core of s
elfless love and peace we are becoming.

"Anchoring Techniques"  - Organizing these principles into common, clear techniques is the challenge before us. I have begun this path already. I have devised close to 20 Anchoring Techniques that are based on the common principles of astrology. These Anchoring Techniques are based more on the common, core qualities in Astrology and the holistic universe itself. These techniques work for any system. They are based on the deeper attributes of the planets, the elements, the spatial relationship between planets, signs and houses in the three dimensional universe, and other factors outlined in "Universal Astrology".

Using a combination of Anchoring Principles and Anchoring Techniques students of any path of astrology will immediately deepen their understanding. I think the single biggest challenge facing astrology students today is they lack techniques that help them organize the overwhelming amounts of information they have gathered. It has been my experience that students do not need more information, they need clear and concise methods and approaches that help them integrate what they (think they have) learned. The Anchoring Techniques in "Universal Astrology" are such methods. Not only are they clear, concise and accurate in their own right, but they provide a powerful structure of support for whatever methods and techniques are applied later.

Additionally, there is the "Anchoring Process" that alludes to the ever evolving consciousness within us that is being expressed astrologically. It is not enough to simply be able to give a planetary assessment or profile in the moment. We must be able to project the growth of astrological indicators into the future. But first we have to understand the goals and growth processes of any given planet, sign or house. I have found this type of explanation to be sorely lacking in most astrology books. In fact, I've never seen it explained properly – if at all.

Life is a process of evolution. Each of the planets is a specific energy in that evolutionary process. Anchoring Processes Deepen our understanding of where the planet, sign or house is trying to lead us. This allows us to more effectively suggest remedies, because we will better understand the psycho-spiritual goals of any astrological situation.

“Anchoring Process of Mars”

“From fighting to strengthen the physical body (Tamas) to
surmounting external challenges and conflicts (Rajas) to the
disciplined yogi, courageously facing their deepest
self (Sattwa) is the Anchoring Process of Mars”.

"Anchoring Conditions" bring relevance back to actual space/time reference points that a two-dimensional astrology chart hopes to convey and that the skilled Astrologer hopes to decipher. The proximity of planets to the Earth, Moon, and Sun, the Angles (Directions) Each other, etc. and other important Phenomena such as Night Birth / Day Birth, Planets Above / Below the Horizon, Retrograde, Combust (The Sun), and other reference points take precedence over specific, minute details of each system or bewildering calculations. System specific Details and calculations are important within each system though for sure, allowing astrologers to make accurate, specific predictions. Yet without understanding "Anchoring Conditions", those predictions will often lack meaning for the client.

One of the most important "Anchoring Principles" is the "Moon Principle". The moon anchors our psychology. It is the subtle bridge between our Earthly perceptive mind and the ultimate Soul nature we are becoming. The Proximity of Planets to the Moon will condition our capacity to Receive (before the Moon) Feel (Joined the Moon) and Integrate (After the Moon). Also planets in angles from the Moon will provide a structure for the psychology.

Excluding The Sun and the Lunar Nodes we find:

Venus Rises Before the Moon
Mercury Joins The Moon
Mars Rises After the Moon
Saturn in the Fourth from The Moon
Jupiter in the 10th from the Moon

"Anchoring Moments" relate to the current astrological weather. Stated in more common language, these are transits and other the dynamic astrology factors ("Anchoring Conditions" are more static from the native chart). Again, when viewed through the lens of "Universal Astrology", transits will have an absolute position to a birth chart or an event chart regardless of the system being used. Therefore, a deep understanding of the anchoring environment will supersede reliance on individual systems, deepening the connection to the universe directly.

"Anchoring Principles", "Anchoring Techniques",
"Anchoring Processes", "Anchoring Conditions"
and "Anchoring Moments" are the five main
components of "Universal Astrology"
