The Ascendant - the astrological sign on the horizon at the moment of birth
Forrest Fenn's Ascendant is in the sign of Scorpio
The sign of Scorpio was on the horizon at the moment of Forrest Fenn's birth.
Understanding Forrest's ascendant and how it influences him is one of the most beneficial considerations a searcher might have in understanding how he operates in the world.
The astrological sign of Scorpio holds 3 levels of spiritual evolutionary development.
1. The Scorpio
2. The Eagle
3. The Phoenix rising from the ashes symbolizes transformation
Transformation of self, others and society is a reoccurring theme in Forrest's life and will always be his underlying driving force.
The Scorpio rising gives Forrest a penetrative gaze. He will intuitively sense your gifts, short falls, weaknesses and intentions.
This makes Forrest the finest of friends and a formidable foe.
Forrest's nature is passionate and instinctive.
His physical presence is profound and his strength is quiet yet pronounced.
He has access to powers of healing and regeneration which he has used for his own healing and also the healing of others.
This healing may be of a physical, spiritual, emotional or even psychological nature.
These transformative and regenerative powers have been gleaned over his lifetime as he learned to follow his instincts and focused his extremely strong will toward positive intents.
The ruling planets of Scorpio are Pluto and Mars.
Mars is action, purpose and direction on a personal level in the physical world.
Pluto is transformation, regeneration and death, it operates in the depths of the psyche.
Forrest's Mars is in his eighth house, or area of his chart, that deals with death and transformation further indicating his drive towards all things transformational and regenerative.
His mars is in the sign of Gemini indicating skill is working with his hands, dexterity, cleverness, quickness of response both physically and mentally.
Talent with words, language and writing are pronounced.
This placement gives Forrest a very shrewd nature.
Pluto is in the sign of sign of Cancer in Forrest's ninth house of philosophy, travels (both physical and mental) higher education, either formal or self directed, justice, spirituality, foreign cultures, etc.
Cancer is the home, the Mother, the nature of nurturing and protecting one's self and others.
This is a place of expansion and growth and is how Forrest has transformed his very foundations through these things.
My commentary of how Forrest's Ascendant can effect. searchers.
When I look at Forrest's Scorpion ascendant and how it relates to other indicators in his chart, I see one overriding point to make to searchers.
Questioning Forrest's personal integrity, is to put yourself at a great disadvantage.
When searchers believe that Forrest is misleading, lying or speaking of the treasure symbolically, what is happening is that they are projecting something about themselves onto Forrest.
This happens because at an instinctual level people sense Forrest's ability to feel other people's motives and intentions.
Someone with dishonest or selfish motivations who are thoughtless of others will react in their physical and emotional bodies with a tightness or fear just watching videos of Forrest, or reading his words. You don't have to be in his presence to feel it.
This interferes with a deceitful or selfish searcher's ability to accurately understand Forrest and therefore his poem because they are looking at him through the inaccurate lens of their projections.
This cannot be overemphasized.
Believe Forrest, hear him, and listen good.
