'''Planetary intelligences''' are one of the seven divine beings associated with each of the seven traditional planets of [[astrology]]. Each planet is part of the Great Chain of Being and has a vast hierarchy of [[planetary spirits|spirits]], intelligences, [[angel]]s, deities, plants, stones and minerals as partaking in its nature. | |||
Within this conceptual framework, the planetary intelligence is the part of the planet that corresponds to the mental plane, the plane of abstract thought. | |||
==Good vs. evil== | |||
In some respects, the planetary intelligence many be thought of as the positive aspect of a planet's energy, while the planetary spirits embody the negative aspects of a planet's energy. Through the many centuries of scholarship on this topic, these positive and negative traits have been conflated into [[angel]]s and [[demon]]s, although they are not explicitly good or evil. | |||
==Use in ceremonial magic== | |||
Planetary intelligences are invoked through [[ritual magic]] to control the forces of the planetary spirit, specifically in the creation of astrological [[talisman]]s. The planetary intelligences are also formally invoked to help ameliorate poorly dignified planets in a natal chart. | |||
Most [[magician]]s view these intelligences as somewhat violent in their natures, being possessed of a thought-process which exists completely outside the capabilities of mortal humans to comprehend. Their power and abilities are similar to the fictional "old ones" found in the writings of [[H.P. Lovecraft]], which imagines cosmic gods who are blind and insane, causing madness among any human who makes contact with them. Most ceremonial magicians are extremely wary of working with the planetary intelligences and [[planetary spirit]]s. | |||
