“Bakara sûresinin sonunda iki âyet vardır ki, bir gecede okuyana onlar yeter; onu her türlü kötülüklerden korur.”  (Buhârî, Fezâilü’l-Kur’an 10; Müslim, Müsâfirin 255)

"Dört şey Arşu'r-Rahman'ın altındaki hazineden (Cennet hazinelerinden) indirilmiştir. Bunlar Fatiha-i Şerif, Ayete'l-Kürsi, Sure-i Bakara'nın sonu (Amenerresulü) ve Kevser Suresidir."  (El-Mütteki, Kenzu'l Ummal, 1/558)

"Bu iki ayet bir evde üç gece okundu mu artık şeytan o eve yaklaşamaz." (Tirmizî, Sevâbu’l-Kur’ân 4)

"Peygamber Efendimiz’e (sas) miraçta üç hediye verilmiştir: Beş vakit namaz, Bakara Sûresi’nin son iki ayeti, ümmetinden Allah’a şirk koşmadan ölenlerin büyük günahlarının bağışlanacağı müjdesi." (Müslim, Îman, 279)

“Allah Teâlâ, Bakara sûresini iki âyetle sona erdirdi ki, bunları bana arşın altındaki bir hazineden verdi. Bunları öğreniniz, kadınlarınıza, çocuklarınıza belletiniz, öğretiniz. Çünkü bunlar hem rahmettir, hem duadır, hem Kur’an’dır.” (Dârimî, Fezâilü’l-Kur’an 14)

"Dört şey Arşu'r-Rahman'ın altındaki hazineden indirilmiştir. Bunlar Fatiha-i Şerif, Ayete'l-Kürsi, Sure-i Bakara'nın sonu (Amenerresulü) ve Kevser Suresidir." (El-Mütteki, Kenzu'l Ummal, 1/558)

Allah Teâlâ, İbrahim aleyhisselama sorar:

- Seni kendime niçin dost edindim, bilir misin?

+ Bilmiyorum Ya Rabbi, niçin?

chapter eight

Three days after her Westruun trip, Keyleth returns home in the evening at the end of a marathon of meetings to find her father waiting outside. This is hardly unusual; Korrin is almost always hovering somewhere near the door, trying not to seem like he’s worrying. Tonight, though, he’s got a funny look on his face, the kind that suggests a conversation needs to be had before going inside. “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing’s wrong,” he says unconvincingly. “It’s not bad. I mean, I don’t think it’s bad.”

“Oh gods.” Keyleth pushes inside, where she’s greeted by the distant, unmistakable sounds of arcane magic from somewhere up above. 

“We probably should have asked first!” Korrin calls after her as she scurries as fast as her wobbling legs will take her upstairs. It’s not hard to follow the low bangs and shuffling all the way toward her bedroom, or rather, the room next to it, which she opens hesitantly. 

“No, not yet!”

But it’s too late. Keyleth stands in the doorway, staring at Gilmore with a slack jaw. He’s frozen in the middle of the room, the setting sun illuminating him from behind like a halo, his usual purple robes rolled up to the elbow and his beringed fingers waggling in the air as he levitates an ornate rocking chair near the window. He grins sheepishly. “Surprise?”

The room is…transformed. Keyleth’s known for some time now that this is the room she’ll be using for a nursery, given that it’s right next door to her own, but she’s been putting off actually doing anything with it, given the general state of her life. Now, instead of bare walls and a plain wood floor, the room has come alive, with vines climbing up toward the ceiling in swirling patterns and thick, mossy rugs of every shade of green and furniture, which, she admits, is probably important. A crib of white oak and a matching armoire in the corner, each hand-carved with intricate botanical patterns and the symbol of the Ashari—the aforementioned rocking chair, plushly padded and now magically rocking on its own—a pair of raw wood shelves laden with children’s books in several languages, including Celestial, which she has to imagine comes from Percy—a changing table exactly the right height for Keyleth, with a mysterious door in the side—hanging from the ceiling, just above the crib, a delicate mobile of black birds that circle round and round by either mechanical or arcane means, she can’t be sure. 

Her throat is instantly thick. The room is beautiful, absolutely stunning, full of life and light and joy. The more her eyes roam around, the more details she spies that nearly take her out at the knees. The stuffed bear in the crib, covered in tiny pink bows. The toy lute tucked among the books. The blanket draped over the back of the rocking chair, embroidered with the sprawling branches of the Sun Tree. A bouquet of snowdrops on a side table in a water jug that looks remarkably like the one Grog liked to eat mayonnaise from. A miniature golden robot, quill in hand, on a shelf. The small wooden raven perched at the head of the crib, its long beak curving down in stoic watch over the bed inside. 

Gilmore crosses over and gently hooks his arm in hers to pull her inside. “I didn’t get the chance to catch up while you were in Westruun, but that’s fine, because it gave me the opportunity to do this.”

“Gil…” she chokes out, nose snotty and eyes wet. “It’s…it’s just…”

He pats her arm. “Let me give you a tour.”

Brennan is a Hellenistic astrologer from USA, he owns a youtube channel called The Astrology Podcast where he introduces people to hellenistic astrology and inherent branches of astrology in long But very interesting episodes. This is his chart from astro dot com...

The 1st thing that drew my attention in his chart is his Ascendant which is conjunct the fixed star Sualocin of the constellation Delphinus. This is the star of the oracle of Delphi and it's related to divination , literally his career and life direction.

The moon is in his 1st house. The moon is the past - history. In his book "Hellenistic Astrology - The Study of Fate and Fortune" he focused a lot on the historical background of astrology which paved the way to the development of hellenistic astrology.

He has 7h ruler in 10h which is the sun in Scorpio. His partner is also an astrologer. If you have a connection between the 7th and 10th house your partner will be involved in your work or you work together.

Venus rules his 9th house of divination and astrology , and it's conjunct his midheaven (career indicator), and this Venus has dignity by being in its own bound in Sagittarius. His midheaven is in Jupiter bound and Jupiter is his benefic of sect since he was born during daytime .

His Lot of Fortune is in Gemini and also in the bound of Mercury. Mercury having rulership over LoF is good for becoming an astrologer. Mercury is also conjunct his asc lord which is saturn in 10, and mercury rules his saturn by bound.

He is double Aquarius, he is rational, intelligent , scientific .. Aquarius usually goes against the current and sets a new trend. While modern astrology was spreading in the west , Brennan is contributing to the popularization of hellensitic astrology among the youth. Some wouldn't have discovered Hellenistic astrology if it wasn't for The Astrology Podcast.
