     O child of Adam�察�this is the Tablet of Love。 Meditate thereon�察�as the 

last   of  the  triune   God。    In  this  Tablet   lies  the  secret   of  suffering   and 

pleasure。 He who vibrates in pain will quiver in ecstacy。 Only those who 

have agonized in Hell can thrill in Heaven。

       TABLET THE FOURTH 

    The Moon 

     SYMBOL 

    NIGHT 

    A wonderful spider's´web�察�

    The web glitters in the faint moonlight against a dark background of 

blue�察�moon invisible�察�on the outside of web a star�察�in the center a spot of 

light�察�underneath a coffin filled with stones。 

    IV 

    REFLECTION 

    TABLET THE FOURTH 

    The web of life has caught the monad of the soul and thus incarnated 

the universe�察�for each soul incarnates its universe at birth�察�each one's world 

being different�察 �and peculiar unto   himself。 At   the  first   breath�察 �the  young 

child   polarizes   his   relations   to   stars   and   earth�察  �and   it   is   the   affinity   and 

repulsion which make his life experience。 And the stars weave the web in 

their lines of sextile�察�square and trine�察�of opposition and conjunction�察�thus 

enveloping the monad in the Circle of Necessity。 

    Outside   the   star   of   the   spirit�察  �the   Ego�察  �shines   clear�察  �free   from   the 

entanglements of the web and unaffected by the magnetic glamour of the 

Moon。 And lo� �the coffin is filled with stones�察�a symbol of death and the 

Moon�察�which is but a casket of stones。 Therefore�察�little monad�察�caught in 

the tangle of the web of life and the glamour of earthly things�察�take heart�察�

for�察�beyond all�察�is the star of your being。 Call down the law of that star into 

yourself�察�and the web is broken and waves its tattered shreds in the breeze。

                                 THE LIGHT OF EGYPT 



The   moonlight�察  �the   reflected   light�察  �pales   as   the   Star´Sun   of   your   being 

rises�察�and the moonlight of Earth gives place to the Sun´spheres of Ra。 

     O child of Adam� �The beginning of sorrow is the dawn of spiritual life。 

The wise man rules the stars�察�the fools of Earth obey。 

       TABLET THE FIFTH 

    Mars 

     SYMBOL 

    An   immense   helmet   on   pedestal�察  �across   which   a   streak   of   lightning 

flashes�察�beside it a naked child painting pictures on the helmet�察�beneath�察�a 

broken sword。 

       V 

    REFLECTION 

     TABLET THE FIFTH 

     Can    greater   irony   be  shown     than  in  this  astral  symbol。    Mars    is 

externally  represented   as   a   fierce   warrior�察  �awful   to   behold�察  �the   reality�察  �a 

little child�察�painting toy pictures on the helmet�察�too big for his curly head。 

The lesson in this is indeed�察�that the pen is mightier than the sword�察�that 

the big and blustering helmet will become a plaything for the child。 Soon�察�

that   the  sword    of  bloodshed�察   �rape�察 �and   ruin�察 �will  be  broken    and  war 

relegated   to   the   past�察  �looked   at�察  �but�察  �as   pictures�察  �painted   with   hideous 

reality by the childhood of the race。 

     The   symbol   also   reveals   the   great   executive   forces   of   humanity�察  �the 

child。 The soul can paint�察�execute its ideas�察�its hopes and its fears in any 

colorthe lurid red of blood�察�the black of ignorance and crime�察�or in the 

living light of beauty。 All the same�察�it is the childhood of man painting its 

ideals in the material world。 

     O child of Adam�察�curb the anger of Mars�察�that thy painting may set the 

dove   at   liberty。   Let   the   magic   of   thy   soul   transform   the   savage   of   the 

desert into the angel of mercy。 

       TABLET THE SIXTH 

     Jupiter 

     SYMBOL 

    A cave in the mountain side�察�a face like the sphinx comes out of the 

cave�察�there is a blackness behind it�察�it looks with upturned head to a light

that   is   way   beyond�察  �it   is   a   face   that   means   something   awful�察  �a   godlike 

defiance to the things that are。 

     VI 

     REFLECTION 

     TABLET THE SIXTH 

     Again   we   are   impressed   with   the   contrast   of   internal   and   external 

things。   Jupiter�察  �the   symbol   of   authority�察  �conservatism�察  �church�察  �and   state�察�

and the stability of human institutions�察�and the things that are�察�as the things 

that are the best。 But oh�察�how widely different the internal�察�the real Jupiter�察�

that governing power of the spirit that hurls defiance at unjust authority�察�

the cruelty and tyranny of the world。 The soul sees the light beyond�察�and�察�

emerging   from  the   dark   chasm   of   matter�察  �knows   the   battle   that   must   be 

fought against wrong。 It is the awfulyea�察�terriblesymbol of defiance to 

gods and men who oppose its onward�察�upward march to the shining goal 

of light。 Make way�察�then� �Make way� �For Earth has given birth to her giant 

sonthe Spirit。 For�察�listen closely�察�my friend�察�to the axiom of Immortality。 

What is soul�拭�Not   the  spirit�察�mind   you�察�not   the  deathless Ego�察 �of   which 

you at present�察�perchance�察�know absolutely nothing。 Soul is mere memory�察�

a scavenger in earthly states�察�and a gleaner�察�a hired help�察�in the fields of 

heaven�察�and to become immortal�察�there must be something more than soul 

as   the   result。   It   must   take   such   a   vital   interest   in   its   Lord's   work   that�察�

finally it becomes too valuable to lose�察�and must be taken into partnership�察�

so to say。 The EgoLord has found a valued servant�察�a trusted steward�察�

after much seeking�察�and at once adopts it as its very own。 And so the soul 

becomes      heir   to  the   heavenly    estate   and   receives    the   immortal�察   �vital 

principle of spiritual union�察�and awakes from the son of Earth a God´like 

being�察�free from the shackles of Timea dweller in eternity。 The soul must 

awake and realize the Deific atom around which it revolves before it is too 

late。 Unless this is so�察�the seed of immortal life�察�sown in matter by the Ego�察�

has   not   germinated�察  �and   it   returns   unfruitful   and   diesit   is   an   abortion。 

Many�察�many seeds never germinate。 Many good orthodox�察�but animal´like 

lives�察�live�察 �move�察�and   die��yes�察�die   in very  truth。 Would to God   I   could 

make all mankind realize this awful�察�inconceivable privilege of life�察�that�察�

Jupiter´like�察�they would turn and face the light。
