In this video I set forth the outlines of a new approach to astrology using insights of late Heideggerian Phenomenology. I argue that phenomenological astrology may allow us to overcome some shortcomings in Heidegger's own etymological and poetic method that he adopted in his later writings.

I begin by examining Heidegger's analysis of the essence of modern technology as not itself technological, a mode of revealing the world: (1) presenting the world through the demand to set upon it as something to be exploited, and (2) representing it as as standing-reserve (Bestand). Heidegger calls this essential revelatory dimension of technology, enframing or (Gestell).

In contrast to technology, stands what Heidegger calls "the thing", and the fourfold that it manifests. Instead of treating entities as equivalent pieces of standing reserve to be used for our purposes, the thing lets things stand in their determinacy. When they do so, Heidegger claims that they take the character of the fourfold (Geviert) of earth, sky, divinities and mortals. Heidegger attempted to do this by meditating on the etymology of words found in the fragments of some pre-socratic philosophers and German Romantic poets (e.g. Hölderlin and Novals).

I argue that the language of astrology is a promising alternative approach to carrying out the late Heideggerian project. Not only is its language explicated in terms of the fourfold, but it also allows one to overcome some problems associated with the Heideggerian position, viz. it is more accessible, has a more essential relation to the fourfold, and can overcome the residual subjectivity of Heidegger's approach.

Finally, I conclude by arguing for why the development of a phenomenological astrology could be beneficial to the practice of astrology itself. As it stands, Western Astrology is divided between two primary approaches to the field. On the one hand, those who practice traditional astrology tend to look at it as a divinatory practice that seeks to explicate how external events will unfold in a person's life. On the other hand, more modern approaches, tend to view it as setting forth the dynamics within the psyche of an individual. I argue, in a Hegelian manner, that a phenomenological astrology is capable of synthesizing these two traditions, bringing astrology from it's in-itself-moment (traditional astrology) and for-itself-moment (modern astrology), to its in-and-for-itself moment (phenomenological astrology).
