Man & His Symbols – Microcosmic
& Macrocosmic
The Aquarian
Full Moon Meditation precipitated insights into microcosmic & macrocosmic
man.
The following
simple realisations emerged from study & reflection on the ‘ Heavenly’ &’ Earthly’ Relationship.
The simple
diagrams below point to the ‘crude’ yet profound esoteric & exoteric
symbology & significance of the physical
( hu-man, god-man) form.
Symbols arise when
existence & spirit mingle.
Symbols out-picture
inner reality into objective expression
revelation comes.
The body is a symbol.
The body is
metaphysically alive.
The body - previously
an instrument of separation
‘appearing’ like the
opposite pole to the universal
Both are ONE
Illusions overturn
The body - a physical experience of the ONE LIFE
The non-physical birth
Life reaches through
symbols to lift the veil
No longer symbols but
Life in ‘appearance’
The Spirit &
Matter - the new androgynine
Inner & outer
become ONE
Fragments synthesise
Spirit & Matter
reconcile
The beginning &
end - The alpha & the omega
God & man
‘real-ise’ each other
The Fourth to the
Fifth.
The
body, symbolises & attests to the path
As a Virgo Sun,
spirituality has always had to be ‘grounded’ in ‘hands & feet.’
Out of the harvest of
the probe & post full moon in-sights, the following poem emerged …
Spiritual
Androgyny
From behind the veil
Your promise has often
kissed my face,
Spirit has touched my
body
Secretly my feet
danced Your song
In my eyes burnt
Your Kingdom
My heart -
surrendered to Your love unknown
Closer than hands
& feet was Your promise,
but only my hope ...
Then today a
mirror,
My fingers,
held out Your hand
My feet,
the place where You
stood
Your Word
Written in bone
Etched in the curves
of my body
My blood
filled with the hieroglyphics of Your name,
Pulsed from the Heart
of Your Existence
Every sunrise a
painted heaven,
Every bird song an
angel’s call
Nurtured in ‘the womb
of time & space’
Through the age &
the aeons,
Your Breath sustained
me
The Lily takes
Her place
The veil between us
Pierced,
In the breast of Your
Silent Fire.
