If you have never used other levels of rulership, try looking at the sign on the Ascendant of your natal chart first. What Sign is rising.?What are that signs manifesting ray/rays? What are the Exoteric/Esoteric Planetary rulers, the Signs they manifest through, and their rays? What type of aspects {if any} are the rulers making to each other? What houses do they occupy?

For Leo, Scorpio, and Capricorn, where the Soul-Centered and Personality-Centered rulers are the same, it is important to look at the Sign the rulers are in, see which rays are manifesting through the planets, and know the levels of expression of the sign Ascending to gauge the nature of the relationship. For example, Leo entirely focused in the personality Life, needs admiration, attention, to be a shining star, and desirous of  possesions that reflect this state of being. The use of Will is instinctive.

For Leo awakening to the Soul, the use of will becomes more conscious. Although there is a need to make a mark on the environment, there is an ever growing awareness of the relationship to the Collective.


Another story begins to unfold on the more subjective side of things which can aid in seeing the whys of the objective events...resulting in a greater objectivity regarding those events, which eventually results in  greater detachment. {attachment to the Soul}. This process  helps to see an increasingly larger picture...the Universal {not only personal} process...of which we
All are a part.
