We identify with elemental traits and think we are them.We are posessed by the elements in elementary school.This idea is expressed in the occult technology of the pentagram.The inverted pentagram is considered to be the evil goat's head, symbolic of the destrutive nature of the sacred feminine.
![]() Many incarnations ago we payed attention to the elements and saw a force within them that was compassionate and loving and of a feminine nature that caused things to LIVE. We also notice that these same elements had a destructive nature in reverse , so we reverse the word LIVE to EVIL. We decided to name this destructive nature that caused that which once LIVED in reverse ,the DEVIL Throught history as the sacred femine became supressed, her true nature was covered by a VEIL of our own ignorance which only serves to conceal her true nature from the profane. ![]() In the image of the up right pentagram the spirit is dominant above the elements. Genesis 2 King James Bible 10 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads. ![]() ![]() ![]() Two of them are through the hands or the lower wrists, between the radius and ulna, where the nails of the cross-beam of the cross on which matter is crucified are inserted. Two are through the feet where the nails passed through both to the vertical beam. The final wound is in the side. According to the the internal spiritual process the essence of the five wounds is recieved in a holy grail, the sacred feminine. ![]() In this crystaline phase of the process we must extract the quint essence from the five elements in to the grail ,only to give birth to that essence.This process can be seen in the image of the hang man of the tarot.Notice the position of the arms creating the alchemical feminine symbol for salt. This is the same position of the Catepillar stage of the butterfly.This is a symbol of vulneralbility and great transformation as the initiate hangs himself up side down, and the once ignorant becomes wise ,symbolized by the illuminated head in the image. ![]() ![]() 1 Thessalonians 4 >> King James Bible 15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. 16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words. This is the spiritually dead, for we are waking by the numbers from the tomb/womb of ignorance,for darkness is the mother of all light.. ![]() The alchemical formula Earth Water Air Fire Sulphur suffer Salt Mercury closest to the sun or spirit. The candle burns all the sacrificial fat until there is nothing left to burn and the GREAT WORK IS FINISH ![]() We must suffer,there is no way around it.It is expressed in the alchemical story of job.The question is will we curse god are the sacred feminine and die, or do the Job we all came here to do.In the esoteric we are known as Merchant marines(mercury) and the title for the GREAT WORK is the DIVINE E CONOMY ie economic collapse.E being the fifth letter of the alphabet which also shows the trinity in man containing the E ther. We are the ones who are posessed by the elements. ![]() Examples 1 I am sick 2 I am angry 3 I am broke 4 I am depressed 5 I am moody 6 I am afraid 7 I am black or white and the list goes on. We are none of these. All emotions can be matched up with one of the four elements ,that only serve to trap our spirit.Every time we (earth) feel (water) breathe (air)imagine (fire),Our thoughts become emotionally charged and we reap what we sow.Our actions and thoughts should liberate us instead of bound us. The I am must be set free. All of the adjectives we attached to our I AM, keep our sword frozen in the anvil in the lower kingdom of the tree of life. Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken. 24 So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.Hebrews chapter 12 King James Version 1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, 2 Looking unto (ourselves) Jesus the author or AURTHUR and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before (us) him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. 3 For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds. The greatest power we have is the power of decision, symbolic of the sword. To have the sword is one thing, but the courage to use the sword is another.We decide and honor our decision without looking back. When the I am is free to decide, we remove the sword from the anvil, and all in the kingdom knows the riteful heir. ![]() ![]() ![]() Another important representation is the king who is taking a bath. The conscious is the king, and the bath or bath water is the unconscious. By bathing he enters into the unconscious. In alchemical terms he is being permeated by the feminine waters. ![]() ![]() The task of man is to feel and be responsible for all his emotions, not to repress them, but to change and transmute them into higher feelings. Repression chains man to the very objects of repression, but purification will transmute those positive elements bringing him closer to his true essence. As long as we do not take up the Great Work, pain and misery will disturb our lives. ![]() ![]() This task is not for the would-be initiate. It is only for the brave who dare to face the darkness of their souls. Many will fail in their courage and return home. Thus the pilgrim is not going on an easy path, as the world of external blame and love of pleasure is not his anymore. He or she has chosen the path of the Goddess leading to many dangers and difficult paths, in solitude and starvation, but eventually they will become immortal. He who will lose life, shall find it. This is the path beyond the two pillars,not distracted by friend or foe. ![]() Those of us who refuse to change from within, well you know the story. ![]() The Keys are LOVE, Intuition and ADAPTATION ![]() I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.( LUCIFER \VENUS) 17 And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely. King James Bible LUKE 22 7 Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed. 8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat. 9 And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare? 10 And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in. 11 And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples? 12 And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready. 13 And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover Not he but she, an effort to hide the power and role of the sacred feminine.For it is she who pours out the aquarius waters of life freely. ![]() ![]() "Ascend above any height, descend further than any depth; receive all sensory impressions of the created: water, fire, dryness and wetness. Think that you are present everywhere: in the sea, on earth and in heaven; think that you were never born and that you are still in the embryonic state: young and old, dead and in the hereafter. Understand everything at the same time: time, place, things: quality and quantity. Last edited by 777 The Great Work; 01-13-2009 at 09:53 AM. |

Thanks everyone for reading,this process is the secret of all secrets for thousands of years.If we can master our emotions , we become masters of the four elements and our bodies/grail become indestructable by extracting from that which restricts us. This is the quest for the philosopher's stone. Wow,we were told all we had to do was believe.

An interesting read. Thanks 777.
A few random observations on suffering that I am writing as a break from what I'm supposed to be writing! It has been an important stage for me to distinguish 'natural' suffering from 'unnatural' suffering. Natural suffering includes physical pain like burns or childbirth, and maybe when babies are sore and fretful when they're teething it serves to remind even the most experienced of souls they're landing back in a body again. And natural suffering includes grief too, even when grief sits alongside relief/gratitude etc about the passing of who or what was that is no longer in the old familiar form. 'Unnatural' suffering is I think what happens when we suffer as a result of our own or other peoples' belief systems. The appallingly dark mood i was in earlier is absolutely me giving myself a hard time for not matching up to my own expectations, and history is littered with examples of how people pay with their lives because they contravene dominant belief systems. I'm not saying the suffering of such people is not real, only that it is imposed by belief systems or mental constructs. Anyway back to what i'm supposed to be doing! hope someone finds the above useful. love to all |

There is no waste in nature, so all those heavy thoughts can be transmuted into power over the elements(Example).So i sit in my glass house and keep my bricks because nothing is wasted.Toxic waste, chemtrails,viruses and famine are all going to be used in some benevolent way to tranform and uplift the whole.

This is most timely and inspiring to my current state.
Thank you, and I'm catching on with your symbolism. I find it important to learn about this, and you have given me a way to understand. The only part I struggle with is this: Quote:
Suffering is surely an issue worth pondering and I do so greatly, in fact too much. I have not overcome this yet. Yet, I believe that the story of Job was a story of someone who wanted to suffer, and I believe that this attitude is unnecessary, it is a result of a preaching of the sin and repentance. The thing with the e conomy eludes me. Maybe just too far a leap? Also, I have started another post on the four/five elements in the western/eastern system, which sadly wasn't seen. This thread and my own research more than answers my questions, though. I can see now that the western and eastern philosophies are not so different at all. Thank you again, for re minding me to re cognise. ![]() |

In the esoteric or life period,it is important to have 360 degrees of perception. this is the meaning behind the number 666 which is also 999.In other words conciousness operates as a reflecting mirror of cycles until they are broken. You can control the people with words without fireing a shot if they are unaware of the dual construct. For example, Obama promised the masses change, but change is inevitable. All physical effects are from spiritual causes and not the reverse.A great example is the pentagram that is only seen as pure evil to the unaware. If there is a physical e conomy,then there has to be a divine e conomy.The alchemical ingredients in the formula for turning base metals into gold have to submit to the power and will of the alchemist by being brought to a state of equalibrium. The world economy has to collapse in order to bring the masses to a state of equalibrium. This very act is a step towards synthesis as the two opposing parties will began to work in harmony to give birth to the dictator. The world is literally being taken through the alchemical process of transformation on both spiritual and physical levels. The destrutive powers of thought have to submit to the will of the divine in order to transmute darkness to light. Start playing with the words and you will see a pattern emerge that is of a high spiritual nature.Emergency or Emerge and See. The E is the image of 3 pillars if you lay it on its side. ![]() E H arm on y Notice the dual tongue in the image. the Indians said that the europeans spoke with fork tongue, which is so true. ![]() Last edited by 777 The Great Work; 01-13-2009 at 11:59 PM. |

I came back to this a second time to reread it, just as powerful as the first.
