This is going to be a mini project. I would like to list those Sabian degrees which refer to spiritual or occult practices or states. One could argue that all sabian symbols have a layer of spiritual meaning. True, but some are prominently so. I'll list these first as I find them and organise later. Please feel free to assist . I'll use this site: www.mindfire.caLIBRA
2°: THE TRANSMUTATION OF THE FRUITS OF PAST EXPERIENCES INTO THE SEED-REALIZATIONS OF THE FOREVER CREATIVE SPIRIT (The degree for the Super Galactic Centre). KEYNOTE: A repolarization of inner energies leading to a creative centralization of consciousness. 4°: AROUND A CAMPFIRE A GROUP OF YOUNG PEOPLE SIT IN SPIRITUAL COMMUNION.KEYNOTE: The necessity to unite with kindred spirits as one enters unbeaten paths illumined by the still-insecure light of a dawning intuition of new values. 25°: THE SIGHT OF AN AUTUMN LEAF BRINGS TO A PILGRIM THE SUDDEN REVELATION OF THE MYSTERY OF LIFE AND DEATH.KEYNOTE: The ability to discover in every experience a transcendent or cosmic meaning.
