The Esoteric #stro!o$ica! -yste is intiate!y re!ated to the essentia!s o" esoteric occu!tphi!osophy, upon 6hich it is "ounded 'oncepts such as the unity o" a!! thin$s, the e7istence o"!esser !i8es 6ithin $reater !i8es, the trip!icity, and the septenary appear abundant!y in the esotericastro!o$ica! syste, 9ust as they do in esoteric occu!t phi!osophy

e"ore considerin$ the speci"ic coponents 6hich constitute this syste, it is he!p"u! to ha8e inind certain $enera! princip!es that describe the orientation o" the esoteric approach to astro!o$yThese $enera! princip!es "a!! rou$h!y into three cate$ories:

1 Princip!es o" 'ausation, e7p!ainin$ the ori$in o" astro!o$ica! ener$ies

2 Princip!es o" In"!uence 3isseination, describin$ the distribution o" ener$ies throu$houtcreation, and
