As narrated over the years -
In the beginning the Sun and Moon, the king and queen of the heavens. Absolute monarchs of all they surveyed from their constellations Leo and Cancer. When Mercury (who rules communication) saw that they owned everything, he requested for some land in the zodiac. The Sun, being magnamious gave him Virgo, the constellation next to his Leo. Now, Mercury who is known as the dual planet the master of duplicity, who speaks with a forked tongue waited the whole day and approached the Moon at night (Mercury rules both day and night) for more land. Reminding the Moon of the Sun's generosity, he requested Moon, queen of the night that will she allow the Sun to outdo her ?
Now, Sun is the soul and Moon is the emotional mind. Mind is insecure , knowing that it has no indenpendent light of it's own, that it only reflects the soul. Since it is insecure, it is only trying to aggrandize itself, and so it often tries to duplicate processes which are part of the life of the soul. This, for example is the reaon why the mind frequently tries to convinve itself that it might live forever. So, Moon replied to Mercury, that it may take Gemini, the plot next to the Moon's Cancer.Thus, mercury the thinking mind gained possession of Gemini and Virgo.Venus (desire) saw what Mercury (thinking mind) had done made the same request. Sun, who is very honest and would not gift the same space twice gave the next zodiac space which was Libra. Venus then made the same request to Moon and obtained Taurus. Seeing what Venus (desire) had done, Mars (action) did the same , obtaining Scorpio and Aries from the Sun and Moon respectively. Requests from Jupiter (wisdom) gained him Sagittarius and Pisces, and finally Saturn (renunciation) got what was left on both sides : Capricorn and Aquarius. This also indicates the order in which the different planets are from the Sun. Mercury the closest followed by Venus and so on.
The evolution of embodied consciousness, which arises from the soul and is first experienced in the emotional mind. As objective thought develops so does the thinking mind. The more the mind thinks, the more it desires. Desires lead to action, in order to fulfil those desires. Wisdom comes from action as one learns the beneficial and detrimental results of good and bad action. When wisdom finally matures, renunciation becomes inevitable, becasue you are satisfied with what is bestowed upon you by nature; you are happy with what remains.
