Libra 25 degrees “Information conveyed by the symbolism of autumn leaves” * New perspective conveyed by “fractals”
The Sabian sign for the Sun around October 18th. Behind even the microscopic phenomenon of the shape of a single leaf, certain laws that flow through nature and the universe are condensed. Re-examining things from a macro (big) perspective can provide clues for attuning your consciousness to these laws. This degree, which indicates the spiritual “completion” of the Libra sign, conveys a new perspective… We will use numerous photographs to clearly explain the “fractal structures” that can be seen all around us.

Fractal Structure
We see every day
like a single leaf.
Did you know that the shape of such a leaf
is a manifestation of one of the laws of the universe and nature: “similar shapes” = “fractals”?
One example of this is the “Koch curve.”

1. Draw a line segment. (Step 0, upper left of the image)
2. Divide the line segment into thirds, draw an equilateral triangle with the middle segment as one side,
and erase the bottom side. (Step 1, upper right of the image)
3. Repeat the same process for the four resulting line segments. (Step 2, lower left of the image)
4. Repeat the same process for the 16 resulting line segments. (Step 3, lower right of the image)

In other words, the same shape replicates like a clone,
creating a larger shape.
A fractal is a shape that can be seen both from a microscopic and a macroscopic perspective.

The same goes for the shape of the tree.
There are also other
shapes similar to this “Koch curve.”

You can see it in a variety of places.
Now, when you think about it like that,
it’s as if the perspective and attention that were focused on that one leaf you picked up on the street
steps back all the way,
and your attention shifts to the greater “natural flow” behind us.
And what happens then?
Even when you look at the same “leaf,”
doesn’t it feel like you’re seeing it from a different “perspective” than usual?
A perspective that sees the “whole.”
For example,
If you look at the Libra scales only from a close distance,
and are anxious about whether the right will go down or the left will go down,
it will appear as a binary opposition, such as “good” or “bad” for you.
But if you take a step back, you can see both the upward and downward movements
as contained within the scales, allowing you to grasp the “whole.”
This symbol conveys that there is something to be gained by viewing
what appears at a microscopic level from a macroscopic perspective.
Sabian 25 Degrees of Shedding
In the Sabian symbol, 25 degrees is said to represent the spiritual “completion” of that sign.
In Libra, while everyone in the situation is trying their best to make life more comfortable,
sometimes being dragged down or hurt by selfish people,
through trial and error, this degree allows you to adopt a broader perspective,
one that includes both sides of the duality of things,
and allows you to see things from both sides.
Then you can even get involved with how you appear to others.
Utilizing a fractal perspective
Now, let’s recall the “fractal structure” we discussed at the beginning.
In this context,
we can say that “what is inside is also outside, and what is outside is also inside.”
Just like a matryoshka doll.
If you were the middle doll in the picture above,
the smaller dolls would be your body and subconscious.
The larger dolls would be the house you live in.
And Japan, Earth…
Or perhaps the solar system or the galaxy.
This world, where what’s “inside” influences what’s “outside”
and what’s “outside” influences what’s “inside”…
This is the world of fractals.
So, looking at things from the “big perspective” mentioned earlier means looking at things
from the “consciousness” one level higher.
That’s why you can see both sides of the doll below, both the front and the back.
By adopting this perspective,
your “consciousness” will gradually draw closer to the “great flow” of the universe and nature.
This will help you to receive unexpected information and support more easily.
Just as autumn leaves symbolize being part of something bigger,
this will help you realize that we ourselves are part of the universe and the natural world.
