- The energy of Apollon entered as a bright, radiant, shining white solar
being, positive and full of assurance, with a laurel wreath of victory on
his head.

- Apollon relates to energy in manifestation - he is a light-being,
forthcoming and open.

- he is Light and brilliance (not in the intellectual sense, tho it can
manifest there as well)

- Apollon is the Light shining thru the prism, and also is the prism that
unfolds the full-spectrum rainbow out of that pure light, breaking a pure
energy stream into differentiated multiplicity in manifestation so that it
can be experienced more fully.  This is a different flavor of manifestation
than the cornucopia of Cupido.

- This is the finely cut gemstone, a diamond cut to show all its potential
radiant brilliance from all angles. 

- Apollon is the Sacred Geometer, master of divine proportion, measure and
harmonics, all of which are manifestations of the unfolding expression of
universal laws and principles.  There is beauty and rhythm here. 

- Multiplicity - fractals, sacred spirals, Fibonacci series - which echo the
same out into further permutations.  It is this same principle that
manifests multiplicity of any gift, lesson, or expression, so that we may
know and experience it from more than one perspective and thus gain greater
depth of understanding.

- This one is a master of energy in all the ways it moves and manifests. 

- Apollon is more extraverted than other ones (transneptunians) we have
visited.

- Commerce, business, money exchange - these are manifestations of energy
dynamics.  Money is a form of energy, and its movement and exchange provide
one perspective or measure of relative value as it shifts, cycles, and
fluctuates.

 

- "Rhapsody in Blue" - Gershwin's jazzy modern classic - complex, upbeat,
forward moving, busy, multifaceted. 

- This energy just *is* - it has neutrality, non-investment, non-attachment.
It has acceptance of universal flow as a medium and process. 

- Apollon has a natural curiosity of "what if??", then moves to manifest and
explore all the options. 

- It is like a reckless field of wildflowers. 

- Recalls Gregory Bateson's learning levels model in which each level
considers the context as a dimension of the content in the previous level.
Apollon provides the opportunity to take a step back, to see the whole
context within which the variability of possibilities of expression
manifest, to see the forest as the entire ecosystem and not get lost in
focusing on the individual tree.  Thus, it is a teacher of life and life
processes.  Unfortunately, not many seize this opportunity of totality of
perspective, but rather do focus on the separate pieces or "notes" of the
whole composition.  Then, fragmentation and distraction result rather than
balance, awareness, integration and flow. 

- Recalls the Buddhist concept of "interdependent arising", which
understands the extreme multiplicity of factors interacting that bring about
any situation, thus dispelling any illusion of singular "cause" or "blame".
Kindness, acceptance and compassion arise from understanding this gift of
Apollon, as the vast interplay weaving the cosmic web allows all, and
de-personalizes for greater freedom. 

- This is like a complex ecosystem, where every plant, animal, element
factor has its place within the interactive whole.

- There is an element of gaming, speculation, risk-taking, and then moving
on.  Apollon is energy movement, dynamic, never static - a master of
manifestation, somewhat like the Tarot card of The Magician.

- Variability of coin, diversity. 

- Like watching a kettle of stew simmering, all the bubbles forming, rising,
popping, splashing, rolling on....

- Apollon has fire/air energy.

- Like druzy quartz or a crystal cluster, many shining facets and points
radiating out in all directions.

- Apollon rules kaleidoscopes!

- This energy is like a group of drums from Africa or India, or a Balinese
gamelan orchestra, each instrument beating its own pattern, all of which
combine into a beautiful, complex, organized power movement of rhythm and
sound, awakening the lifeforce energy in all who hear. This is a call to
wake up, move, and join the dance of life in joy and possibility - dazzling!
