       TABLET THE SEVENTH 

     Libra 

     SYMBOL 

     A crowned king�察�with a scythe raised in the air�察�looks closely at two 

boys wrestling beneath him in a field of grain�察�a red poppy below them。 

     VII 

     REFLECTION 

     TABLET THE SEVENTH 

     The   symbol   of   Nature's   eternal   war   for   the   impossible   equilibrium 

between   spirit   and   matter�察  �the   symbol�察  �also�察  �of   Time�察  �which   is   but   the 

illusion   in   which   eternity   clothes   itself�察  �forever   putting   on   and   forever 

putting   off   new   garments   of   matter。   The   crowned   king   is   the   victorious 

soul�察�waiting�察�with the scythe of Time�察�to   reap the harvest   of the   world�察�

while incarnated man�察�as represented in the wrestling youths�察�is struggling

for   that   which   he   did   not   produce�察  �and   which   only   death   can   reap。   The 

poppy reveals the secret of the illusions of Nature's master´showman。 All 

earthly things are unreal to the spirit�察�which is the only real thing。 Man's 

effort   to  hoard   and   save  the  things   of  this  world   IS  INJUSTICE       TO 

OTHERS。 The struggle is eternal�察�and no matter how careful or cunning 

man is to monopolize either power�察�truth or wealth�察�swift´footed time will 

readjust all things without error。 

     O   child   of   Adam�    �Lay   not   up   for   yourselves   treasures   upon   earth�察�

where   moth   and   rust   doth   corrupt   and   where   thieves   break   through   and 

steal。; 

       TABLET THE EIGHTH 

     Scorpio 

     SYMBOL 

    A wide�察�and plain�察�on it a skeleton�察�a dull�察�grey sky�察�in which an Eagle 

soars�察�full´fed�察�it seems�察�from the flesh of the skeleton。 

    VIII 

    REFLECTION 

     TABLET THE EIGHTH 

    A  significant   symbol   to   the   seer�察  �showing   forth   the   two   ultimates   of 

life and death�察�of earthly things and sex。 Scorpio is both the eagle of the 

spirit�察�soaring aloft�察�well fed with all that is worth carrying away from the 

earth�察�and also the scorpion�察�whose natural home is the desert。 

     In sex�察�either way�察�life is given。 Shall it be to your spirit making fat 

and full your immortal self�察�or will the other interpretation be yours�拭�And 

will you leave yourself dead and annihilated�察�a skeleton�察�to the Ego�察�the 

Divine spirit�拭�For sex is indeed the foundation of all。 Raised to the region 

of Libra�察�it is power and magnetism。 To the bosom it is love�察�to the brain it 

is enthusiasm。 It is   the promethian fire of  life�察�the creative force�察 �giving 

vigor to whatever region to which it is raised�察�or�察�lowered�察�to be spent with 

no returns�察�it debases and renders life a desert of dry bones。 

     O child of Adam� �Reflect on the fall of man from spirit to matter�察�and 

combine the wisdom of the serpent with the purity of the dove�察�and ;lest 

ye partake of the tree of life ye shall surely die。;

     Saggitarius 

     SYMBOL 

     A child in a shell�察�holding in its hand a feathered lance�察�is drawn by 

five stars�察�grouped in an under arc。 

     IX 

     REFLECTION 

     TABLET THE NINTH 

     The symbol of the conscious soul。 The shell is the body�察�drawn by the 

five   sensesstarswhich   form   an   under   arc�察  �to   represent   the   world   of 

material     things   and   our   relation   thereto。   The   child�察  �armed    with   the 

feathered   lance�察  �is   the   soul�察  �riding   thus�察  �fully   armed�察  �in   the   shell   of   the 

body�察�it realizes the duality of truth�察�that all things are changeable�察�and that 

each thing is true upon the plane of its manifestation�察�while an illusion to 

that   which   is  interior   to  its   life�察 �while   the   soul  is   in  its   dream   state。 

Sagittarius   represents   conservatism   and   the   permanence   of   crystallized 

institutions�察�but�察�when the spirit awakes and bursts the shell of matter�察�the 

senses�察   �instead   of  being   the   guardians    and   jailors  of  its  environment�察�

become   its   servants�察  �and   the   means   by   which�察  �united   as   the   one   Ego�察�

sense´perception�察�it races o'er the fields of Aetha being of life and beauty�察�

shining in the empyrean of God。 

     O child of Adam� �Ever remember that temperament and environment 

constitute the north and south poles of human possibility�察�and that ability�察�

combined with opportunity�察�is the measure of responsibility。 

       PART 1 

     Here beginneth Chapter 4 of the Book which is called;The Tablets of 

Aeth�察─    �wherein     is  transcribed    the   Fourth    Quadrant      of  the   Twelve 

Mansions。

     ;Beware�察    �O   my   son�察  �of  self´incense。    It  is  the  most  dangerous     on 

account of its agreeable intoxication。 * * * Learn�察�O my beloved�察�that the 

light of Allah's truth will often penetrate an empty head more easily than

       TABLET THE TENTH 

    Capricorn 

    A deep�察�black ground�察�o'er which shimmers a phosphorescent light�察�at 

each side an aurora borealis rises�察�mountain like�察�above all�察�a tiny star。 

    X 

    REFLECTION 

    TABLET THE TENTH 

    Here is revealed the symbol of the messenger of the Most High。 The 

star hovers over the phosphorescent light cast on the darkness as the spirit 

hovers   over   the   blackness   of   matter。   The   aurora   borealis   stands   as   the 

emblem for the magnetic attraction of Earth on spirit�察�the Christ soon to be 

born    in  the  manger   of  the  Goat�察  �the  descent  of  the  Holy   Ghost   into 

material form�察�so that heavenly truth may illumine the drear speculum of 

earthly   thought   with   the   Divine   iridescence   of   celestial   light。   It   is   the 

lowest arc   of the   cycle   that reveals   the new  birth   of death unto   lifethe 

divine egg of Brahma�察�containing the promise of the new law�此 �Peace on 

Earth�察�good will towards men。; 

    O   child   of   Adam�   �Be   thou   the   star�察  �and   not   a   dweller   of   the   outer 

darkness�察�and ;Let your light so shine before men�察�that�察�they may see your 

good works。;

    SYMBOL 

    A stormy sea is seen�察�above it the eight stars shine�察�brilliant and clear。

    REFLECTION 

    TABLET THE ELEVENTH 

    This    tablet  symbolizes    the  complete    materialization    of  manman�察�

perfect on the earth and the lord thereof�察�in so far as material forces are 

concerned。 The storm is the tempest of life�察�the whirl of the elements of 

matter in their battle with the spirit。 The eight stars�察�brilliant now ��for they 

are the same stars that were dimly seen in Gemini���察�show that the conquest 

of matter is complete�察�the great fall of spirit finished�察�the end of involution。 

And   this   would   bring   stagnation   and   death�察  �if   peace   now   ensued。   The
