Aries Leo and Polaris … are doubly connected through the medium of the Pointers. (EA 197)

Aries

Aries is … closely connected with the Great Bear but peculiarly so with one of … The Pointers

The pointer furthest from the pole star (Merak) is expressive of ‘divine will’. (EA 196)

The energy of the first ray … has been esoterically described as “unavoidable directed purpose”

Aries, in which the will to create or to manifest makes its appearance…

…then [after the influence of the other, Leo-related Pointer Dubhe is assimilated] the energy of the Pointer furthest from the Pole Star [Merak] begins to make its presence felt and a sense of right direction or guidance is registered by the disciple upon the Path, and such guidance (when followed) leads [us] nearer to the Hierarchy. (EA 195-6)

Leo

Leo is the sign wherein the consciousness of individuality is developed, utilised and finally consecrated to divine purpose. It is related to Polaris, the Pole Star … and it is peculiarly susceptible to the influence of that Pointer nearest to the Pole Star.

This pointer is known as Dubhe, and:

the Pointer nearest the pole star (Dubhe) is ‘expressive of a lower aspect of will … self-will…the Mutable Cross’

the energy emanating from [Dubhe] guides humanity upon the involutionary path, and is constantly active [on those who are] still upon the Mutable Cross. (EA 196)

Polaris

Esoterically speaking, the Pole Star is regarded as the “star of re-orientation” whereby the art of “refacing and recovering that which is lost” is developed. This eventually brings a person back to their originating source. It might, therefore, be correctly inferred that [Dubhe] and the energy emanating from it guides humanity upon the involutionary path, and is constantly active in its influence upon the man who is still upon the Mutable Cross. Then the energy of the Pointer furthest from the Pole Star [Merak] begins to make its presence felt and a sense of right direction or guidance is registered by the disciple upon the Path, and such guidance (when followed) leads Humanity nearer the Hierarchy.

…the two Pointers and the Pole Star… are mysteriously connected with the three aspect of incarnated Humanity—Spirit, Soul and Body. […] These three stars are embodiments of the three aspects of divine will. It is the three aspects of all expressions of divinity in manifestation which underlie the Science of Triangles.’

Polaris—The Star of Direction—governing Shamballa.

When the two Pointers are symbolically aligned in humanity, and the personal will is congruent with the soul’s purpose, the influence of the Pole Star can begin to take effect: ‘It is here that the divine necessity of achieving alignment is portrayed for us in the symbolism of the sky and when it has been achieved there is a direct inflow of divine energy and [we are] linked up in a new and creative manner to sources of divine supply. (EA 196-7)

Astrologers will do well (in connection with the horoscopes of disciples and particularly of initiates) to consider the two Pointers [Merak and Dubhe] and the Pole Star. They are mysteriously connected with the three aspects of incarnated [humanity]—Spirit, soul and body. … These three stars are embodiments of the three aspects of divine will. It is the three aspects of all expressions of divinity in manifestation which underlie the Science of Triangles. (EA 197)
