STRIDER   IN   THE   WILD

 

The One Ring was created by Sauron alone in the Chambers of Fire, Sammath Naur. This was the most powerful of the Rings of Power.

The Lord of the Rings, page 65:

"He only needs the One; for he made that Ring himself, it is his, and he let a great part of his own former power pass into it, so that he could rule all the others. Unlike the Seven, the Nine and the Three which each had a gem, the One was a plain golden circle with no markings, but when heated, the Ring showed two lines of a verse known in Elven Lore.

The verse is:

Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

Viggo's Mars in Gemini, Mercury semi-sextile Saturn:

"From the Twins [Gemini] come less laborious callings and a more agreeable way of life, provided by varied song and voices of harmonious tone, slender pipes, the melodies inborn in strings and the words fitted thereto: those so endowed find even work a pleasure. They would banish the arms of war, the trumpet's call, and the gloom of old age: theirs is a life of ease and unfading youth spent in the arms of love. They also discover paths to the skies, complete a survey of the heavens with numbers and measurements, and outstrip the flight of the stars: nature yields to their genius, which it serves in all things. So many are the accomplishments of which the Twins are fruitful."

Manilius, Astronomica, 1st century AD. p.281

 

Arda Encyclopedia provides these dates for Aragorn:

1 March III 2931 to IV 120 (lived 210 years)
Chieftain of the Dúnedain (in minority) from III 2933
King of the Reunited Kingdom from 1 May III 3019

Some of His Titles: Chieftain of the Dúnedain
Thorongil, meaning 'Eagle of the Star'
Dúnedain, Envinyatar, King of the West
Elessar - it was long foretold that he would take this name; it was given to him in Lórien by Galadriel (on 16 February III 3019). When Aragorn took up the kingship of Gondor, he assumed the name, and later references to him take the form 'King Elessar'.
Wingfoot, Éomer’s name for Aragorn [The Two Towers III 2 The Riders of Rohan] because he and companions Legolas and Gimli had covered about thirty-four miles each day.

Power Symbol: Star of the Dúnedain, the badge of the Rangers
A brooch in the shape of a silver star emblazoned with rays, worn by the Northern Dúnedain on their left shoulders. It was carried by Aragorn in his time as Thorongil in the south, and was the source of that name, which means 'Eagle of the Star'. When the Grey Company came to Aragorn's aid in the War of the Ring, they, too, wore star-brooches of this kind. Sometime after the War, Aragorn conferred one of these Stars on Samwise Gamgee.

 

The Fellowship of the Ring introduces the Ranger Strider patiently awaiting the Hobbits at The Inn of the Prancing Pony - as per Gandalf's request. Strider hides Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Pippin in an inconspicuous room as the ominous Riders in Black arrive in the small town of Bree. Strider then leads the four Hobbits into the wild toward Rivendell, with the hope of losing their deadly pursuers.

This neat and tidy dodge with death alludes to the eventual meeting between Aragorn and The King of the Dead that is destined to occur in the last book of the trilogy, Return of the King. Strider is guided by higher soul counsel throughout the saga, akin to Divine Providence. He is destined to meet many representatives of the infernal regions but never compromises his integrity.

The next confrontation with the Riders in Black after the near miss in Bree will take place in The Weather Hills at the watchtower of Amon Sûl. Again, this sets up a foundation for the eventual show down between two powerful polarized forces. The terrain, atmospheric conditions, and architecture establish the vivid contrast between both armies. The White Tower is a name used for Minas Tirith in Gondor, especially due to the glistening Tower of Ecthelion, emphasising its opposition to Sauron's Dark Tower of Barad-dûr.

 

 

The Nine slaves of Sauron represent the race of men in a trapped state of corruption, due to their amoral attachment to the nine rings of power. The library of Minas Tirith provides the time line and story of these nine winged shadows in the journals of Isildur. They first appear during II 3441, around the time of The Last Alliance [II 3429--II 3441], the same time the Lord of the Shadow Host and his followers broke the oath of allegiance they swore to fight with Isildur.

The nine Ringwraiths travel a negative dimension [generally defined by properties associated with Yesod] in a space and timeframe in contrast to Strider-Aragorn. At the time of the War of the Ring, Aragorn would lead the King of the Dead and his legions into battle with Anduril, an opportunity they have long awaited. As Isildur's true heir, Aragorn could offer the King of the Dead and his army the chance to lift the curse of Isildur forever. They agreed to a deal with Aragorn who promised to release them from their agony in the haunted caverns beneath the Ered Nimrals, and fought to free Minas Tirith at the Battle of Pelennor Fields. This subtle form of exorcism indicates Aragorn's true nature and suggests he is predestined to finally defeat Sauron.

 

* In Tolkien, we have two almost identical 'ladies in white': Lúthien in The Silmarillion, and Arwen in The Lord of the Rings. Both these Elf princesses are considered the most beautiful women of their time; both have eyes that shine with light, and skin as white as snow. Both are connected with a white star-shaped flower called Niphredil. This is a flower that first bloomed in celebration of Lúthien's birth, and blossomed eternally on both Lúthien and Arwen's burial mounds. And finally, the winning of both required near-impossible quests. For the mortal Beren to win Lúthien, the Silmaril had to be captured; and for the mortal hero Aragorn to win Arwen, the One Ring had to be destroyed.

-David Day, Tolkien's Ring [illustrated by Alan Lee]

Tolkien's original Ley of Leithian reference and introduction to the story first told by Halog [Professor's handwritten note, the first beginning of the poem, Oxford 1919-1920, Alfred Street]

And Beren caught the elfin maid
And kissed her trembling starlit eyes:
The elfin main that love delayed
In the days beyond our memory.
Till moon and star, till music dies,
Shall Beren and the elfin maid
Dance to the starlight of her eyes
And fill the woods with glamory.
