Matter is spirit, Spirit in matter.
The basic duality – of feminine & masculine.
Woman & man – a basic foundational duality in our world.
Duality is the basic law in manifestation.
Together they create a whole, a holy union.
Male/Female – the givers & the receivers.
Two activities that exist in all humans.
The energies – the outward & the inward, the positive &
receptive, the day & the night.
Male/Female – not by one’s outer form.
But as energies – right side & left side.

All theologies consider God as male/female.
Gemini shows us this duality.
Like a line of light beams – revealing the basic duality in form & matter. Gemini reveals male & female, the relationship of spirit & of form. The conscious light of that relationship.

Elements – the basis of nature.
The basis of astrology.
Fire, earth, air, water – emanations of the Four Recording
Angels (Rosicrucian. In the 1st chapter of the Bible, the elements are called forth, elements – electro-magnetic emanations from the Four Recording Angels. And as they came down into matter, the first day was fire, the 2nd air, 3rd water, 4th earth. The Fixed Cross – the precipitation of energies & forces as elements.

We are made of the elements.
As humanity, the 4th Earth period of Reorientation, the elements shift, reorganize, reorient to finer & finer essences.

The first level of understanding nature, self, life, astrology is the study of elements.

Spirit coming into matter, Lords of the Zodiac, the Law of Sacrifice, sacrificing their spiritual essences in order to embed themselves into man (humanity).
Fire & water – two elements that need to be harmoniously blended, is the work of every aspirant. Fire & water – blending of the spirit & its control of one’s emotions, desire lifted up to the Aspiration, the emotional transmuted. When this occurs a spiritual essence comes forth within the brilliancy of the Soul body.

Thus the 12 signs of the zodiac comprise the four triplicities of Fire, Air, Water & Earth.

All Mystery Teachings are connected with the Mother Science called Astrology. Astronomy came after Astrology. The Four Elements, the Path of the Zodiac, the Seven Planets, all are the foundations of the Path of Initiation & Sacred Teachings, previously represented in Zoroastrianism (Persian sacred teachings) in Persia in underground sacred caves.
In ancient temples, painted with Sun, moon & stars, sacred dances were performed imitating the motion of the stars, the dances of the gods. The dances acquired such perfection that the entire Pythagorean philosophy was displayed in the dancer’s movements. This has been lost to humanity.

One of the Temple Grecian dances was about the four elements – Fire, Air, Water, Earth. Another was about the journey of the hero encountering the 12 signs of the zodiac. Another was the love story of Venus, Mars & Vulcan.

The Holy Temples of ancient times held that all the fine arts were to be offered in the temples – that of dance, music, poetry, architecture, painting, drama, all thought to have magical properties that spoke to the Soul of the people. Most of the sacred legends taught to the people were done in rhyme, in dance, in drama. This has disappeared as our world became more & more secular.

The forms of poetry, rhyme, music, dance, drama, etc. are forms of the Feminine Principle of the Logos (The Word), the creative imagination, the image forming principles within each of us, which is OUR MOST IMPORTANT SPIRITUAL FACULTY.

This feminine Principle (the Word) is actually the focusing center of the rhythmic emanations of the four creative Hierarchies of Fire, Air, Water & Earth.

The entire creation & all in manifestation was created & is sustained in creation by the music of the spheres. These are also the great Archangels who represent the entire Hierarchy, each with its own specific function in the universe. Their archetypal pattern lies behind all created things in our world.

The Initiatory Path leads the novice through experiences with the Four Degrees which are the degrees of Fire, Air, Water & Earth, the name of definite work done in Initiation.
The work done each day is as if we are in a Laboratory. Daily life the Mystery School of learning.

The student/disciple works with & studies the four elements – the basic principles of human nature. In time they form the understanding of the Philosopher’s Stone. The Stone (one’s life, personality, Soul) – one’s life is tested by the elements – by fire, water, air & earth. The stone changes colors, sometimes red, sometimes white, sometimes all the colors of the rainbow (Rays). Depending upon the work/Work being done.

Water is the purification test of the emotional nature. Fires test one’s strength & power. Air, one’s thoughts. Earth – is that of distillation & transformation to transmutation – so the essence of one, the Spirit/Soul body, shines forth.

One must, at the end, be “made into gold” To enter into the Temples of Heaven. The preparation for this is what our Work here is all about. Beginning with Astrology, the mother of Sciences. Risa

We are the Servers, standing with the Forces of Light, with our hands outstretched to humanity, one hand holding a fiery sword. Risa
