Main Triad
Rising: Taurus
Sun: Gemini
Moon: Libra
Taurus is hard work, practicality, down to earth dedication to empiricism. Gemini is all about motion, bouncing from one idea/interest to the next, one day it's psychology, the next it’s politics, next, linguistics, then neuroscience, afterwards religion and theology. The Taurus Rising binds the Gemini Sun keeping it on track and actually allows him to finish the things he starts (although it’s easy to see why meanders around when asked difficult questions). It (Taurus) also makes him Stubborn, which gets him in trouble when his Gemini talks him into a corner. But that's no problem because Gemini’s make the best Used Car Salesmen *Cough* I MEAN Lawyers, Politicians. Etc.…. The Moon in Libra is interesting here. This placement usually indicates the need to “Beautify” life (apparently JP has quite the art collection at home) which should have a double effect because Taurus and Libra are both “Venusian” in their nature. However “Moon in Libra” people usually avoid “unpleasantness”, this is strange because as a psychologist it means he constantly studies “unpleasantness” in the Human Condition (he apparently did his dissertation on alcoholism. FYI anyone who's lived/interacted with real alcoholics knows how dark that world can get). Perhaps this created a “Corner Stone” in his Psyche which led him into making a system or set of teachings to try to dissolve the causes of “unpleasantness” in life. You know… Hence his following.
Sub Triad
Mercury: Gemini
Venus: Cancer
Mars: Taurus
Mercury is the Mind and in Gemini we merely reinforce the mental agility, speed, fluidity. Mars is Action, and in Taurus it just makes him even more stubborn and set in his ways (WE’LL SEE WHO CANCELS WHO!). What makes this more interesting is to notice that Gemini is an Air element (Abstract, Dynamic, Spiritual) and Taurus is an Earth element (Practical, Solid, Materialism). These two are complete opposites which seem to be expressed in his weird Epistemology. Half of JP seems to use a down to earth “William James” like Pragmatism, while his other half uses a completely wild abstract, subjective, metaphysical set of principles. Hence why his definition of truth avoids “Objects” and focuses on “Meaning”. (It’s too bad he’s progressively watered down his style to become more mainstream. I would like to hear him talk on “OOO” or go in depth into “Phenomenology”).
As for Cancer in Venus, this makes his personal relationships deep and important. Which is probably why he went off the deep end when his wife almost died from cancer. It is *whimper* also why *strained tears* he gets so sad in interviews *continuous crying*.
Final Duad
Jupiter: Pisces
Saturn: Aquarius
Jupiter is about what makes you grow. Pisces is about emotions. Crying on the Internet and becoming a social Martyr is basically his super power. Seriously, all the trials which would have crushed his peers were the triggers that made him stronger and stronger. Every interview, every debate, win or lose. It was all fuel for his fire.
And finally, Saturn in Aquarius makes him despise injustice or the perceived “sensation of being in a cage”. He also adopts, copies, and mirrors (like a lake reflecting the moon) his notions and values from those he respects the most, which in this case would be his favorite authors i.e. Dostoyevsky, Nietzsche, Jung. Make of that what you will.

Conclusion: You are never going to change his mind. The more you try to push him of course the harder he digs his “hooves” in. (UP YOURS WOKE MORALISTS!) The Gemini abstraction and Taurian pragmatism make him a perfect outsider, and fringe thinker, which is where he belongs. Not in the mainstream. In the mainstream he’s just gonna say wack stuff on twitter and then continually double down. He should go back to interpreting Jung and trying to comprehend Alchemical Symbolism instead of politics. What the world needs from him is a lecture series on something like the Gnostic Gospels not Chinese C*** Milking Pr0nogr*phy.

Forwarded from Self-Immolation
"The best response to negative emotion is to allow it to self-liberate, by remaining in non-dual consciousness, free from attachment and aversion. If we can do this, the emotion passes through us like a bird flying through space; no trace of its passage remains. The emotion arises and then spontaneously dissolves into emptiness."
