A Newly Formed Continent is the Sabian Symbol for the 19th degree of Taurus. Here it is described using the 7 Words System - a way of understanding the complexity of human interactions that can be applied to all aspects of self-awareness and relationship, so that you quickly change your perspectives and get to a deep sense of what to do to improve things.
Have you ever thought that your sun sign,
while it may say quite a lot, does not truly classify you very specifically? Surely not with an exceptional sense so that all of your life experience has to seem so very altered from then on. Well then, have a glimpse at these Sabian Symbols – they could well compel you to adjust your attitude! The Sabian approach certainly is somewhat unique.
What are the Sabian Symbols all about? There are 360 Sabian Symbols – one for each degree – that have been clairvoyantly derived by a female mystic, Elsie Wheeler, and explained by an astrologer, Dr Marc Edmund Jones. Each one gives a subtle hint about the focal point of meaning of that degree, which usually can reveal some very useful and stimulating perspectives that undoubtedly will get you thinking.
It works even if it’s not your particular degree – and yet a lot better if it is. It’s best to allow yourself time to do it slowly, like a meditation. Let each of the short paragraphs sink in slowly and try to feel what it means, as well as using the mind…or just sit with the images for a while and use your power of imagination to create some playful stories around it.

Having come to some new realizations about the essence of who you are, there is another stage you can adopt – to decide to be different. You can influence a lot more of your circumstances than you usually do when you engage fully with the deepest part of your unique identity, by taking on the qualities indicated by your Sabian symbol.
Also if you are clearer about who you are, then you become a lot more certain about what you want out of life. You can set your goals according to an overall vision of the bigger picture, and that itself leads to a much greater chance of success. It helps with focus so that you keep your attention fixed on the required outcome.
Reading your own Sabian Symbol is a bit like getting a brother or sister to speak honestly about you. They know you well, with all your dark bits and your light, and although they love you, they’ll tell you the hard truth! It can be difficult to hear, yet useful for those who are trying to become better people. It may be necessary to reread it a few times and think deeply about what is actually being said.
There is so much we could do with our lives! Opportunities are endless and very diverse, each day bringing little clues and teases to nudge us toward a little more unfolding of potential. Saying No to this and Yes to that surely requires us to trust our feelings and surrender to the inevitable – that, come what may, we all end up being who we are: nothing more, nothing less.
Raw substance emerges on earth through the interaction of unimaginable forces that can push tectonic plates into mountain ranges and form new continents. Within each individual the same potency is available; those who claim it have access to awesome creative power – that which brings new matter into existence.
Matter and energy interchange throughout eternity, in a long, slow, endless dance without limits of expression. Through cycle upon cycle, reality is reworked into different demonstrations of form by the constant process of recreation.
The very ground of one’s existence is shaped by personal experience to conform to one’s desires. In other words, at this intensity of passionate involvement with life at its most basic level, substance is shifted to conform to individual will.
Unlikely as it may sound, the entire face of the universe is subject to this process. It takes a mighty confidence to know and trust this, yet with such confidence, one can remodel reality entirely.
This is none other than the dramatic exposition of a profound cosmic truth – that humanity has the ability to constantly re-establish itself, and its complete character and circumstances, according to whatever new powers and opportunities may present themselves to whosoever is ready and willing to grasp the nettle and claim such authority.
The danger that goes with such influence is the genius one can have for futile turmoil and finding cause for upset in everything.
At a very high degree of attainment, the individual will experience this capability as the gift to establish a link into the absolute stream of life force that descends through the crown as a flow of energy and comes to rest eventually in the origination of entirely new substance.
