Some thoughts about Algol

I have always been strongly connected to Algol as my Sun exactly conjuncts with Algol in Taurus. I just read some very interesting things about this topic and I had a little “discovery” which I would like to share. And I also would like to put an end to some irrational fears.

Everyone knows this fixed star, Algol, the “Head of Medusa”. Maybe many of you have also conjunctions or other aspects to this star.
Usually people fear Algol and are worried about it. We know Algol is being portrayed as the most destructive and dangerous star. It is of the nature of Saturn and Jupiter. Astrologers say it causes misfortune, violence, decapitation, hanging, electrocution, extreme sickness, mob violence, murder, terror, and gives a dogged and violent nature that causes death to the native or others…etc. The list of the negative and horrific things is endless.
BUT…is it really true or is it true in every cases?

See the mythology first.
Algol represents the head of the Gorgon Medusa who was slain by Perseus. Medusa, who was the only mortal one of the three Gorgon sisters, was originally a beautiful temple virgin but her hair was changed into hissing serpents by Pallas Athene because of in consequence of her having become by Neptune the mother of Chrysaor and Pegasus in one of Pallas Athene’s temples.

Perseus was the son of Zeus.
According to the myth Zeus visited Danae in the form of a shower of gold and got her pregnant with Perseus.
As a young man Perseus undertook a mission to kill the Medusa. He was furnished with the sword, cap and wings of Mercury and the shield of Pallas Athene. He killed the Medusa by cutting off her head and afterwards killed the sea monster Cetus and then rescued and married Andromeda…

But Perseus could have died in his quest to kill the “evil” Medusa but with divine help he triumphed and cut Medusa’s head off and recruited new helpers and later on with the help of Medusa’s head, he was victorious over his other enemies. One look into Medusa’s eyes would turn anyone into stone and there were snakes on her head instead of hair – Perseus taking advantage of these powers held Medusa’s head in his hand and defeated his enemies.

As we know most of these myths are spiritual allegories.
And here comes the point: What does Algol represent in fact?

Algol is also called the “Evil Star”. The Arabians called it Ra’s al Ghul.

The jews called Algol as Rosh ha Satan, Satan’s head! And Algol was also called Lilith.
Why did they call it “Satan’s head”?

Medusa is in fact, the most powerful helping weapon if we hold this energy in our hands, and is present in Algol.
According to the primordial traditions the power of Algol is Mother Nature, the Kundalini energy!
If we look at Medusa’s picture, we can see that her head is surrounded by snakes.

The snake represents Kundalini and also it is an ancient symbol of healing, initiation and rebirth.
Such as the Ophiuchus, the “serpent-bearer”, constellation which is in connection with the Milky Way.
The serpents in Medusa’s hair connect her to the Ophiuchus constellation also known as the “medicine man”.
The word “medicine” comes from the same root as Medusa, the name of the sorceress Medea also comes from this root. The “blood” from Medusa’s left side was poisonous and the right side was used to heal.

The other name of Algol is “Demon Star”. The Arab word for alcohol means “the Demon”. Alcohol comes from the word Algol. The other word for alcohol is spirit. Another term for alcohol is Latin “aqua vitae” meaning “water life”…
We already know what these words mean and made the connections…

We also shouldn’t forget the fact that Algol is the second brightest star (Beta star) of the Perseus Constellation.
Algol is a star which gives out light. Some astrologers say that every celestial sign which gives out light or in other words transmits light helps us.
“It is time to redefine those light giving starts which are labelled as bad and evil just like Algol which manifests the basic natural feminine energies. The negative labelling of Algol suppresses energies and desires only to create and magnify fear.”

Murder is a common concept associated with Algol.
In a spiritual sense murder means the transformation of the inner energies and their elevation to a higher level (as death is not the end, only taking off the body-clothes when the soul enters a higher dimension).
Algol is in opposition with Scorpion which also represents passing away, transformation…

Algol is the face of the feminine most feared for her raw passion and power.
“She is the kundalini energy… the power of the feminine or the potential power of Mother Nature, not to be called evil for being strong.” Algol carries the collective rage for the suppression and repression of this power.

The jews FEAR the female energy. That’s why they also smeared Algol. You can see many of the astrologers – most of them are jews – even connect the effects of Algol to the holohoax and tries to emphasize their lie.
Many jewish astrologer and other idiot chrisitans depict the Algol as the star of mass murderes and serial killers and they love bringing the nazis as examples. Bad examples as the nazis weren’t serial killers…

Yes, many of the nazis had conjunctions, oppositions, trigons to Algol.
For example, Mars was in conjunction to Algol in Borman’s chart.
Saddam had his Mercury conjuncted to Algol.
General George Patton’s Neptune conjuncted to Algol.
And if everything is true Hitler has his Vertex point on Algol!

The jews also corrupted and perverted the meaning of the Black Moon point, today it’s commonly known as “Lilith” in the chart. And they did the almost same with the meaning of Aldebaran too.

In the ancient vedic astrology Algol and Aldebaran (and also Rigel and Antares) are the most powerful stars. If someone has the Sun, Moon or Asc in conjunction with these stars it can mean great wealth, power, leadership and other benefical things.
Besides my Sun-Algol conjunction I also feel strong relation to Rohini (Aldebaran and their neighboor stars) which is my Nakshatra according to my vedic chart. My Moon conjuncts with Aldebaran.

On the negative influences of Algol…
Algol is double star. And it’s true that Algol is related to the pain too. The medical term “Algology” means the study of pain. If it’s badly aspected and is in 8th house for example then it can cause dangerous situations, accidents, troubles, difficulties…Some astrologer thinks Algol can bring the ability to rise above all the terror.
The ability to handle anything. This star puts itself in these situations, whether it’s purposefully or subconsciously attracting the situations to them. Those with strong Algol influences in their natal chart are usually well suited to handle these difficulties.

Algol people can be great warriors and leaders. Who do not fear death, pain, rejection, and are willing to go through torture, to reach a specified goal.
I’m sure many of you, sisters and brothers here have Algol in their chatrs someway. If you have, don’t be afraid of it, even if it’s in your 8th house. But always check the actual transits to Algol too…
