This is the fundamental question concerning all astrology also. It simply means that we are not designed to live only our small, narrow existence. We live to fulfill tasks that concern the whole Earth and even the cosmos. By constantly battling and mak- ing decisions in facing the challenges of existence, we insert ourselves into the greater processes of cosmic evolution. In addition to this, we have reached a point in history where we must learn to formulate and practice the decisions out of our own inner resources of spiritual activity and from a deeper insight than the intellect only.” Willi Sucher This is the first publication of this second half of the Star Journals (and the second of the three volume study series called Practical Approach) since they were originally written and mailed to subscribers from June 1968 to October 1970. The journals have been reproduced in their original text and form, with minor editing. All significant changes or additions from the editors will appear in [brackets]. Most of the monthly calendars and commentaries have been ex- cluded, unless they contained information relating to the subject matter of the journal or to research information. The Astrosophy Research Center was founded in 1984 by Willi Sucher, along with a few friends. Born August 1902 in Germany, he was inspired already in his teens to create a new astrology. With the impulses of Dr. Rudolf Steiner, he began work at age 27 to develop astrosophy—a new star wisdom. In those early years he worked with Dr. Elizabeth Vreede, and he continued this work with many others for the next 57 years until his passing in May 1985. The Center is a non-profit public benefit corporation and is not organized for the gain of any individual. It is a place for study and research and is open to anyone with an interest in this pioneering work. Accommodations are available upon request, please contact the Center for room rates and further information. If you wish to make a tax deductible donation toward future publications, please send a check payable to the Astrosophy Research Center.

On the other hand, to check possible historic implications in connection with such rhythms can be equally revealing. Ear- lier, in connection with those rhythms or the conjunctions of Venus (see Mar. and Apr. ‘66), we have demonstrated how we can investigate their challenges over the centuries. Thus many of the modern historic developments that are deemed to be novelties might appear in amazingly old-fashioned company. In connection with the conjunction of Mars with the Sun in 91°, the years 1953 and 1936- 8, indicating the rhythm of 15 to 17 years, have been mentioned above. We would recommend restudying, in this context, the history of the years preceding the Second World War, and also the war in Korea and its conclusion by the uneasy Armistice of Panmunjon on July 27, 1953. It is, of course, obvious that the rhythm of approximately seven years, associated with the cycles of Mercury, is closely bound up with the rhythms of individual human life. Jupiter in the Twelve Constellations As promised, we will now concentrate more on the presentation and investigation of individ- ual charts. We also want to follow up further on our study of the manifestations of the planets in the constellations of the Zodiac. In order to combine both aspects, we will select one individual chart for each of the twelve positions of Jupiter and also of the other planets, which can be regarded as representative for the corresponding twelve diversities. Jupiter in the constellation of Aries: As a representative we have chosen the nativity and prenatal chart of Ulysses Simpson Grant, the great and successful general of the Union armies against those of the southern Confederates during the American Civil War and later the 18th president of the US. The following diagram (Fig. 1) depicts the positions of the planets, etc., at the birth in the inner circle, according to the customary astrological practice. In the outer circle we add the movements of the planets during gestation, starting from the astrological epoch, according to the Hermetic Rule. One of the basic features of this chart that strikes us straightway is the fact that the Sun, Saturn, and Jupiter are close to the rising point, or astrological ascendant (data adopted from Alan Leo’s A Thousand and One Notable Nativities, No. 237). This is a key position in the chart. Jupiter was in the constellation of Aries most of the prenatal time. Saturn was also there. (We mentioned this in the Jul. ’67 issue.) Therefore, the two must have been in conjunction. In- deed, there were three such conjunctions: one shortly before the astrological epoch (approxi- 6 STAR JOURNALS TWO mately the time of conception) and two more during the embryonic cycle of Grant. They happened three times because of the retrograde movements of the two planets. Thus we find here a remarkable engagement of the constellation of Aries at birth. We can understand this and the particular realization of these impacts by Grant (see also Jul. ’67 issue, in connection with Saturn), if we contemplate the enormous and decisive influence this individuality had, simply by his actions—perhaps, not only on the development of the United States but the whole of modern humanity. In another theatre of history it was accompanied by the Emanci- pation Edict of Czar Alexander II of Russia, which declared the Russian serfs legally free (March 13, 1861). Of course, there were many others involved in these events, such as Abraham Lincoln who was also at the moment of his incarnation connected with the constellation of Aries, though from a different planetary angle. Figure 1 Ulysses S. Grant Born: April 27, 1822 Epoch: July 23, 1821 7 PRACTICAL APPROACH II In order to discern the specific implications associated with Jupiter, we suggest restudying its description in the Feb. ’66 and May ’66 issues. To this, in this specific case, we now add the two factors: that it was in conjunction with Saturn, and it was at the point where the prenatal Sun-curve came to an end, i.e., where the Sun was at birth. The conjunctions of Saturn and Jupiter repeat themselves in approximately the same sector of the Zodiac according to a rhythm of about 60 years. Thus the one conjunction of 1821-2 recurred in 1881. However, a closer study reveals that they shift forward in the Zodiac by about 9°-10° within one 60 years’ cycle. The events of 1821 took place (heliocentrically) in about 23° of the ecliptic, whereas the fol- lowing one in 1881 was already in 31.6°. Furthermore, we discover that conjunctions of this nature happen in two other localities of the Zodiac.

Sounding Nostalgia In Post-World War I Paris Abstract In the years that immediately followed the Armistice of November 11, 1918, Paris was at a turning point in its history: the aftermath of the Great War overlapped with the early stages of what is commonly perceived as a decade of rejuvenation. This transitional period was marked by tension between the preservation (and reconstruction) of a certain prewar heritage and the negation of that heritage through a series of social and cultural innovations. In this dissertation, I examine the intricate role that nostalgia played across various conflicting experiences of sound and music in the cultural institutions and popular media of the city of Paris during that transition to peace, around 1919-1920. I show how artists understood nostalgia as an affective concept and how they employed it as a creative resource that served multiple personal, social, cultural, and national functions. Rather than using the term “nostalgia” as a mere diagnosis of temporal longing, I revert to the capricious definitions of the early twentieth century in order to propose a notion of nostalgia as a set of interconnected forms of longing.

  • Defining the Role of Drumset Performance in Contemporary Music
    Defining the Role of Drumset Performance in Contemporary Music Benjamin N. Reimer Schulich School of Music McGill University Montreal, Quebec December, 2013 A doctoral paper submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Music in Performance Studies © Benjamin N. Reimer 2013 Abstract Traditionally considered an instrument used primarily for improvisation in popular music, the drumset has emerged in contemporary music as a solo instrument with prescribed notation. While there is a growing interest in this repertoire today, composers have drawn inspiration from the drumset since the early developmental stages of the instrument itself in the early twentieth century. In the context of popular music, generations of drummers have explored new musical and technical possibilities of drumset performance. It is this history that remains linked to the drumset even when crossing over into the context of contemporary composition. Drummers in popular music have influenced the musical content, the approach to performance, and even our preconceived ideas of the musical and technical potential of this instrument when it is used in contemporary art music. This thesis presents four unique approaches to composition identified and defined as the Tourist, the Snapshot, the Non-idiomatic and the Confluent. Although many works are discussed, the chapters focus on Darius Milhaud’s La Création du Monde, Christopher Rouse’s Bonham, James Dillon’s Ti.Re.Ti.Ke.Dha and Nicole Lizée’s The Man with the Golden Arms. The purpose is to highlight new performance techniques and musical possibilities for drumset performance used in contemporary art music, while identifying the composed repertoire’s links to traditional and fundamental drumset practices.
