Astral Avatars// Brynner (Yul Brynner)

Brynner is a stag from the celestial realms of Asabove. Specifically from a city in the stars by the name of Hydra (Cancer, Decan 2), home to resilient and self-establishing avatars who can be quite difficult to understand due to their secretive personalities.

He was formed at the point in time when Yul Brynner took his first mortal breath, and is the result of a specific heavenly constitution, including: Cancer Sun in the 12th house, Taurus Moon in the 10th, Leo in the 1st and an Aries Midheaven.

As the Sun creates the ego; its position at the time of birth speaks of one’s essence, and as such the 12th house of the unseen, unknown and subconscious formed a very mysterious stag indeed—more selfless than the rest of his brood, wildly imaginative and nomadic.

From his inner Luna influence emanates the colour dark green—indicative of the Earthy and aesthetic Taurean mindset.

The Deer: The light of the Sun filtered through the constellation of Cancer produces the cosmic deer. Earthly representatives of this energy are impelled by Cancerian nature—ruler of the mother’s house and disciple of the Moon. Just as the moon governs the emotional landscape, a mother’s nurturing shapes the mind of her child, and so the doe hides her fawn from danger until he is grown. One might think leaving her fawn alone in the forest is risky, but mother knows best; for integral nurturing is not about smothering fawn with affection, but preparing him for the hardness of life. This is why we relate Cancer to the crab, with its strong outer shell.

The Whitetail: If the Sun shapes the ego than the Rising Sign forms its outer shell, or, in Brynner’s case, the specific type of deer. Leo Rising is known in Sobelow (man's realm) as the Whitetail. Leo’s element of fire mixed with the watery sign of Cancer gives the Whitetail its supreme adaptability; at home in the woods or in the heat of an open prairie. As Leo keeps an eye on his pride, so too does the Whitetail flash his distinctive tail to warn his fellows of danger. And just as Brynner’s mortal counterpart was known as a king in his profession, the Whitetail is the King of Stags.

Mercury, Jupiter and Neptune are also at home in Brynner’s Rising house, making him a clever, larger than life and charismatic enigma of a Whitetail!

The Crown Pendant: Avatars who earn pendants are those who embody the lessons of their Midheaven (AKA: 10th house), the house of career and public image. For Brynner, this pendant comes in the form of a crown, the symbol of Aries—strength, fire and independence are the hallmarks of Arian profession, along with the power to blaze one’s own path through life. Individuality reigns! They are kings and queens of their careers.

Astral Avatars are part of a new, socially interactive art and story-telling project, blending astrology with love for the animal kingdom! The goal is to assign avatars based on everyone's natal chart details, and because there are over 140 different animals for every combination of signs, the species of your avatar will be almost as unique as your personality!

Very soon you'll be able to discover and order your avatar at asaboveavatars.com

But for now, comment your natal chart details (available at: astro.com) if you'd like to have your avatar featured here on steemit, or you can check out the project's creation page in progress here for more artwork and info.
