become involved in material form�察�that shall make it the master�察�and give
it the victory over death and material forces。 Surely�察 �this is truly the
promise of a new day�察�and higher state of existence。
It will he instructive to study this by a comparison of the zodiacal sign�察�
Capricorn�察�as set forth in the ;Light of Egypt�察─�Vol。 1�察�wherein we read�此�
;This sign signifies the knees�察 �and represents the first principle in the
trinity of locomotion�察 �viz。�察 �the joints�察 �bending�察 �pliable�察 �movable。; The
analogy is perfect。 The soul�察 �which has been pliant�察 �bending to material
forces�察�now reverses this action�察�and bows the knee in awe and reverence
to the higher powers of its being。 When refracted upon the human
organism�察�we find that the cold�察�lonesome state�察�and weary struggle within
the mineral realm�察 �becomes love of self�察 �directing its energies to the
attainment of selfish ends。 What could be more natural�拭�
XI。 Aquarius
;And from Aquarius' urn a flood o'erflows。;
The soul�察 �released from its crystallized cycle of matter�察 �now rapidly
evolves into states�察�though material�察�yet entirely different。 Its previous arc�察�

THE LIGHT OF EGYPT
from Libra to Capricorn�察�has been amid inorganic matter。 It is now rushing
with lightning speed upon its weird�察 �toilsome�察 �upward�察 �journey through
purely organic forms�察�from vegetable to animal�察�and�察�as all organic forms
have their primary origin in water�察 �so does this celestial urn express the
primary conception of this physical state。 Further�察 �to more fully express
this�察�Aquarius is typical of man�察�as prototype of the last grand goal of the
soul's future material statein other words�察 �the last quadrant of the four
elements�察�viz。�此�Bull�察�Lion�察�Eagle�察�Man。
There is something exceedingly significant in all this�察�and the more we
ponder on this spiritual allegory of the shining constellation�察�the more we
are impressed with the divine wisdom of those early instructors of our race�察�
who thus preserved truth in an incorruptible form。
From this weird�察�but beautiful constellation�察�we learn how the soul has
progressed�察�finding innumerable avenues of expression of its latent forces�察�
the manifestation of its powers in the various chemical changes�察 �and
development of functions expressed through countless forms�察�on the lower
planes of existence。 The sacrifice of its angelic innocence�察�the imperious
defiance and deathless courage�察 �symbolized by Leo�察 �have obtained the
victory over the lower kingdoms�察�which will be incorporated into his vast
empire。 Yet�察�unstable as water�察�it cannot excel�察�or�察�in other words�察�cannot
rise to a higher state within this are�察�of its progressive life。
We find that the astrological expression of this constellation�察�the sign
Aquarius�察�governs the legs�察�and is the natural emblem of the changeable�察�
moveable�察�migratory forces�察�of the body�察�forming a perfect parallel with its
interior symbol。 There is a great deal contained in this zodiacal sign
worthy of deep study and reflection。
XII。 Pisces
;Near their loved waves cold Pisces take their seat�察�With Aries join�察�
and make the round complete。;
Once more a reactionthe last scene of the soul's impersonal drama。
The constellation ��if Pisces is the symbol of rest and expectation。 The soul
has now completed the first round�察�or rung�察�in the Cycle of Necessity�察�and
its next state is that of incarnated man。 It has triumphed over every sphere
below�察�and defied�察�in turn�察�every power above�察�and is now within that sixth

state of the embryonic soul´world that transforms all its past knowledge�察�
sorrow�察�and suffering�察�into experience�察�and produces the impersonal man。
It has traveled through constellated states within matter and spirit�察�and�察�
as a human soul�察 �with reason�察 �intuition�察 �and responsibility�察 �it will�察 �in its
next state�察 �become subject to those same powers when reflected from a
different plane。 The twelve constellations of its soul will manifest a
complete rapport with the twelve signs of solar light and power。
With this we close。 The mystic sign of this constellation is �����察 �or
completion�察�a seal and a sign of its past labors。
And�察 �as we have seen�察 �the shining constellations are the soul's
progressive history from its genesis�察 �to its appearance within embodied
conditions as man�察�and so�察�by correspondence�察�are the twelve solar signs
symbols of man and his material destiny。 The foundation has been laid�察�the
material and resources are at hand�察�for his kingdom is exclusive。 With his
own hands he must build his temple ��the symbol of the perfected man���察�
each stone accurately measured�察�cut�察�polished�察�and in its proper place�察�the
proportions symmetrical�察�hence�察�harmonious�察�the keystone of whose arch
is WILL�察�its foundation love。 This accomplished�察�be will have completed
the second round of the great Cycle of Necessity。
And who�察�after contemplating the wondrous harmony of this beautiful
system�察�and the complete accord of each part�察�can refuse to agree with the
truly inspired Addison that
;Ever moving as they shine�察�The hand that made us is divine。;

CHAPTER III。
THE SPIRITUAL INTERPRETATION OF THE TWELVE
HOUSES OF THE HOROSCOPE
As a sequel to the foregoing subjects�察 �viz。�察 �the Zodiac and
constellations�察�we will add the spiritual interpretation of the twelve houses
of an horoscope�察�which completes the triune expression of these celestial
symbols of eternal truths。
In revealing this mystery�察 �we would impress upon the mind of the
student that the order of the Zodiac is the reverse of the external�察 �in its
spiritual application�察�to the twelve houses of the horoscope。
As the four cardinal signs�察 �viz。�察�Aries�察 �Cancer�察 �Libra and Capricorn�察�
correspond to the four angles of a natal figure�察�it is our purpose to explain�察�
first�察 �the symbology of the four angles�察�or cardinal points�察 �believing the
whole revelation will thus become clear and forcible。
The four angles of the horoscope correspond to the four elements�察�the
four triplicities�察 �and the four cardinal points�察 �or epochs�察 �in the soul's
involution from pure spirit to the crystallizing�察�inert�察�mineral state。
The first angle is the ascendant�察 �or House of Life。 It is the eastern
horizon�察�and symbolized by Aries。 Upon the interior�察�this first angle stands
for the birth�察 �or differentiation�察 �of the Divine Ego�察 �as the result of the
creative action�察�or impulse�察�of the Deific mind。
The Ego rises upon the eastern horizon of celestial states�察�a glowing�察�
scintillating atom of pure intelligence�察�an absolute�察�eternal Ego�察�rising out
of the ocean of Infinite Love。
The South angle�察�meridian�察�or Tenth House�察�pertaining to honor�察�etc。�察�is
symbolized by Cancer�察�the highest point in the arc of the soul's involution�察�
as a differentiated atom of Deity within angelic spheres。
Having evolved the
