The combination of Virgo with Leo at its best
Thanksgiving Chapel is part of the Thanksgiving Square area which was created in 1976 in the center Dallas, Texas the world capital of oil production. The tiny chapel was built as a contrasting element amidst the assembly of tall skyscrapers of the Texan oil empires. The position in Virgo the sign of reason, retreats, health, herbal medicine, doctors, yoga culture, gardening, ecology and protection of nature and plants resonates with its role as a symbolical last refuge for mother nature in the very heart of the extremely aggressive and destructive heart of the Texan oil cartels and the homeland of the ruthless exploitation of mother earth and its effects of global warming, climate change and the final destruction of the former stability of global weather systems under the flag of the USA and its world capital of the oil industries, lobbyists and profits.
Astrogeographic position for morphogenetic field level 4 (exact position) which describes the energetical topics of the chapel itself: the chapel is located in the center of self-protective earth sign Virgo the sign reason, health, protection of nature, spirits of plants, gardening, parks, the harvest season and of storing and protecting the harvest. Virgo is to some extent also an indicator of the allusion to the snail shell and to the recycling of existing material. and for the small protected places dedicated to remind people of the energies of mother nature in an extremely functionalistic, urban, technocratic area surrounded by skyscrapers and steel and concrete buildings. The 2nd coordinate is in the last degree of highly energetic, magnetic, emotional royal fire sign Leo the sign of the Sun, light, colors, heart, power plants, self-expression and energetical centering. Because of its relatedness to the Sun Leo is also a natural resonator for fossile resources and through its self-centeredness also for the appeal of humans to the right to burn away all available material resources.
Before calculating the astrogeographical position I expected the construction site to be in Sagittarius the sign of circles and main indicator for round forms, circles and the focus on design and ornamentation. But Sagittarius is not present here!!! Therefore the spiral does not resonate with the Sagittarius related topics of seeking and finding a path centering around the road and the way itself in the first place. From the point of view of the astrogeographical evaluation the spiral has to be examined as related to the centralist absolutist reflexes of the appeal for a royal status of fire sign Leo. The spiral therefore depicts a path to the center of light and from the heart of darkness – emphasizing the character of the church as a sun temple and a memory of an escape from the center of Dallas – where the Thanksgiving prayers of the oil cartels rather relate to the crude oil and dollar harvest than to food production.

Astrogeographical position for morphogenetic field level 4 (exact position) which describes the energetical topics of the chapel itself: the chapel is located in the combination of earth sign Virgo the sign of reason, retreats, health, herbal medicine, doctors, yoga culture, gardening, ecology and protection of nature and plants. Virgo therefore resonates with the allowance of plants growing inside the church and of the vision of the plants that surround the chapel. The 2nd coordinate in highly dynamical fire sign Sagittarius the sign of style, design, ornaments, composition, healing, shamanism, philosophy, thinking, travelling and mental conclusions. The empty ring above the altar seems to suggest a vision of god that goes without any image than the world itself. The ring is symptomatic of Sagittarius
