666.00.00 Campanulidae
Names: Campanulids; Bellflower class; Euasterids 2; Campanula Subclass.
Botany: Asteranae; ovary inferior; petals fused early; stamens equal petals, fused with petals.
Taxonomy
Campanulidae is one of the big Subclasses in the Asteridae Class in the Apg3 classification. In the Apg1 and Apg2 it was called Euasterids 2. It contains the Orders Aquifoliales, Bruniales, Campanulales, Dipsacales and Apiales.
In the Plant theory the Campanulales have been split in Campanulales and Asterales. This possibly makes the Campanulales polyphyletic. The strong Boron quality in Campanulales and the Carbon quality in Asterales makes the split inevitable. A similar situation is that of the Apiales. The Order has been split in Araliales and Apiales, which makes Araliales probably polyphyletic. The Nitrogen quality of Araliales is strong and the Chlorine element of Apiales is strong, making the split necessary.
Phases
1. Aquifoliales: they feel an outsider in their striving for autonomy.
2. Bruniales: they adapt, in contrast to their striving for autonomy and spirituality.
3. Campanulales: they are unsure and doubting their striving for autonomy and spirituality.
4. Asterales, Asteraceae: they feel justified in their aim for autonomy.
5. Araliales: they feel limited in their expansion in for autonomy.
6. Dipsacales: they feel used in their striving for autonomy and spirituality.
7. Apiales: they feel rejected because of their striving for autonomy.
Introduction
The themes of all the series are present: Hydrogen, Carbon, Silicon, Iron and Silver series and Lanthanides. But the emphasis is on Lanthanides.
The striving for autonomy is paramount. They want to be free and live their own lives. It goes together with a striving for psychological and spiritual development. They do all kinds of courses and therapies, following yoga, meditation, tai chi and the like. Often they become therapists themselves.
There is also a strong feeling of being responsible for the world. They want to make the world a better place for everyone. They transcend the cultural boundaries, do not want to feel limited by cultures, religions and rules.
They are often not very interested in worldly matters. Social opinion is not so relevant. They hate hypocrisy and phony behaviour, preferring honesty and directness. The show of the world is perceived as fake.
They do not understand how people can be short sighted, not seeing the spiritual world.
They do not know if they can become spiritual.
