This is an awesome resource!
The article about Pegasus Syndrome is here as well. I want to express my gratitude to its author, but since the article appears all over the internet, I am not sure of its origin.

Pegasus Syndrome
Here is a wonderful insight to contemplate about the meaning of the constellation Pegasus:
", as exemplified in the legends of Perseus and Bellerophon, is concerned with the innate ability possessed by some people to negotiate difficulties by rising above them, on the one hand, and the danger of overreaching themselves, on the other.
Pegasus, by birth, is the child of Medusa and Neptune, symbols of 'wisdom' and 'emotion,' respectively, which shows the dichotomy of his nature.
As in the story, Bellerophon attempted to fly to Olympus (overreach his potential). He believed that Pegasus was subject to his will. However, it was Pegasus who made it to Olympus, while Bellerophon was tossed back to earth, lame and reproached by others.
It is unwise to take any situation for granted as the 'lesser' person (or, in this case, beast) may be the very one to teach us the much needed lesson in humility.
Pegasus is also indicative of a specific mission in life which the inquirer will always find the time and energy to pursue, although the path may be sewn with difficulties (the Chimaera) and limitations (Bellerophon's doubt or arrogance). So, the Pegasus Syndrome is the seeming ability to "fly over any situation," though the reverse may be a lesson in humility, being "taken down a peg," as it were."

Fixed Stars in Pegasus
The magic of this ritual involves accessing and connecting with the energies, meanings, lessons, and other influences of the fixed stars in the constellation of Pegasus.
These stars if places significantly in the natal chart can influence various connections with horses: healing them, controlling them, and understanding them on a deep level. They incline towads the powers of the horse-whisperer, or the person with the horse as their spirit guide.
Here is a link to commentary by ancient writers about the fixed stars in Pegasus.
If negatively aspected, these stars can encourage the states of imbalance deiplayed by Bellerophon and Pegasus in some tales: e.g. impulsiveness, rage, violence, etc....all things UNBRIDLED, so to speak. Other negative influences of this constellation result in destructive powers of water.
