The Influence of Planets on Youth and Maturity According to Anthroposophy 🆙

To carry out our mission here on Earth, we bring four main provisions:

Coming from the zodiac;
Of the planets;
Of the temperaments (choleric, sanguine, melancholic and phlegmatic);
Of heredity.

Then, other things will influence: the place where he was born, the race, the time, the language.

Today, we are going to focus a little on the influence of the planets on our predisposition and on how they act in each seven-year cycle (seven-year cycle). Further down you will also see how they influence maturity (from 63 years old).

The Planets and the Septenes

0 to 7 — Second: plays a fundamental role in determining our form and constitution, as well as bringing, during life, the forces of the past to the present.

7 to 14 — Mercury: acts with its beneficial and harmonizing influence. It is the period when we are (potentially) furthest from death.

14 to 21 — Venus: exerts an intense influence on the erotic sphere and on the ideals of the third period of seven years.

21 to 42 — Sun: particularly shape the development of our soul. This is the sphere from which humans get the power to assimilate past events and develop them. From this period on, we increasingly have the opportunity to walk towards the future and free ourselves from the past, in order to achieve the goals we have set ourselves in life.

42 to 49 — Mars: works on individuality.

49 to 56 — Jupiter: allows us to structure the course of our life with increasing wisdom.

56 to 63 - Saturn: allows us to look back on our lives, which leads us to adopt a questioning attitude: “Have we achieved our goals?”.

The positive influence of the planets on maturity

After the age of 63, we begin to experience a “new childhood” and the planets begin to influence us in a new way. In fact, we cannot even call it “influence”, since, for anthroposophy, these are the so-called “free years”, and there is only a potential (depending on the inner work) for something to happen:

Moon: impulse to adopt a new lifestyle.
Mercury: healing forces introduce new vitality and longevity.
Venus: purified beauty, the glow of old age that comes with wisdom.
Mars: daring.
Jupiter: renewed creativity and a proud bearing.
Saturn: reverence for life and moral stature.

The negative influence of planets on maturity
