Good to hear from you, Mick. A few thoughts on Jesus in the spirit of the model.
Psychologically, I'd place him as meaning/narrative-stabilized with a secondary esteem/status stabilization. His teaching organized reality around a cosmic story - the Kingdom, redemption, the arc of salvation - and his own role within that story was one of ultimate significance. That's narrative architecture with a status overlay.
Historically, the Jesus movement represented a process that was essentially the inverse of what the stabilizer model describes as happening now. He and his successors took a particularist Jewish redemptive narrative and universalized it. Paul and the early Church then took the non-redemptive tragic worldview of the Hellenistic world - everyone to Hades, no cosmic justice, life as weight - and replaced it with a redemptive one; lightness displacing weight, hope displacing tragedy.
The Abraxian framework describes the opposite: redemptive narratives failing under accumulated and intensifying contradiction pressure, pushing those who can no longer metabolize them toward non-redemptive architectures. Here weight displacing lightness. This isn’t because weight is better but because the lightness has stopped being credible for certain constitutions under certain conditions.
Astrologically, there's a structural parallel worth noting. Christ represented the shift from Aries to Pisces, i.e. gods of war to the suffering servant. He held the crucifixion of opposites within himself and mankind offloaded the crucifixion onto him. That's the Piscean arrangement: the central figure bears the tension and the community is stabilized through participation in that bearing. But in Aquarius, the water bearer pours out - each person is increasingly required to carry the psychic burden of individuation, of the crucifixion, on their own. No central figure to offload onto. The infrastructure is withdrawing, the water is being distributed.
The stabilizer model is an attempt to map what that looks like for different constitutions and why most people, rationally, will keep looking for someone else to hold the cross for them.
