Hegel was born with
Mercury conjunct Neptune and it is easy to apprehend this combination
in his writings. As Neptune is the ideal realm, Hegel was the greatest
of the German Idealist philosophers. Hegel's work concentrates on reconciling
the ideal--the world of truth, beauty, goodness, and eternal forms--with
the material, which he attempts in his magnum opus, The Phenomenology (Mercury)
of Spirit (Neptune).
Uranus-Mercury is also
highly evident in Hegel. Uranus-Mercury not only grants brilliance in thought
but it also bestows the individual with what one might call higher order thinking--the
ability to transcend one's perspective and to hold multiple perspectives at
once. This capacity is highly evident in what is somewhat inappropriately
called Hegel's dialectic--the
co-presence of opposites reconciling as a synthesis. Envisioning the world
in this way is highly indicative of the Uranus--Mercury combination. The
Pluto--Mercury combination is what elevates Hegel above his Idealist contemporaries.
Hegel's idealism has to be taken more seriously than most idealism because
of his credible reconciliation with the ideal and material realms. Thus,
Hegel is able to incorporate the necessity of the Plutonic--the evolutionary
manifestation of spirit in and through the material reality.
