Nenamerno si Ivane otvorio vrlo zanimljivu temu o tome kako se iz partikulariteta koje percipiramo u stvarnosti, bavljenjem astrologije, podizemo na lestvici duhovne hijerahije tako sto sve prepoznajemo u svemu drugom. Citiracu Rodnija Blekhirsta o vezi izmedju metafizicke univerzalije i njenih manifestacija, te kasnijeg povezivanja tih univerzalija, odnosno, svih 7 planeta u jedno:
"To use a simple example, it is one thing to note a correspondence between the Sun in the celestial order and a particular manifestation in the sub-lunary order such as, say, a sunflower, but it is another to realize what it is that these two things ultimately have in common and, as well, to realize that, theoretically at least, all manifestations in the sublunary order have a correspondence with the Sun, as with all the other planets. It is never finally enough to ask of what planetary nature is such and such a thing, as if the things of the world could be neatly compartmentalized into seven planetary boxes; similarity points to identity; the real correspondence between the Sun and a sunflower lies in the Being of God and not in the things, qua things; as things, rather, they manifest only difference, which is the difference inherent in manifestation Multiplicity itself. This fact explains the experience of all astrologers at a particular point in their development; there comes a time when similarities appear, often in lightning-fast sequences of associations, everywhere, and the astrologer is overwhelmed by a profusion of correspondences that are so broadly interconnected and widely interchangeable that nothing intelligent can be said of them at all; all is confusion. The astrologer may note, for example, that while the correspondence between the Sun and a sunflower is immediately obvious, on further consideration the sunf lower, as seen in its yellow petals, its upright „dignity‟ and so on, partakes of the nature and has the qualities of the planet Jupiter. While these qualities appear to be distinct, he may then note certain things about the flower that could justify describing it as Mercurial, and then as Saturnine or Martial or Venusian or even Lunar. Referring to the sphere of the fixed stars and the twelve zodiacal signs is no better, for sufficient contemplation will eventually reveal that the sunflower “belongs” to and has the qualities of them all.
This experience is only to be expected. After observing astrological correspondences for some time, the astrologer suddenly comes under the sway, as it were, of a centrifugal attraction towards Unity and Identity. Suddenly, all he sees are similarities that together lead into an interconnectedness that is very quickly beyond being encompassed with the ordinary operations of the mind..."
