Forms are altered and dissolved. Religions die. The human spirit leaves them behind, as the wayfarer leaves the fires that warmed him in the night, and goes in search of other Suns, but Religion remains.

This world is a World of Resonance, and, according to this fundamental universal principle, man has been transmitted knowledge and wisdom since the beginning. As evolution moves on, religions are given to man, but as a trial and a test how; ever, not as a reward.
This world is the World of Two Spirals that are intertwined. As the elements evolve on the cosmic scale, Spirit “involves” seeking out its potential. Therefore, the further and wider the elemental world unfolds, the deeper the Creating Spirit reaches into itself to illuminate its fathomless depths.
While evolution moves on, religions appear when man can catch the sparks of divine Wisdom. Nevertheless, religions are but fragments of the Mosaic which, in its entirety, is Religion. Step by step the universal plan unfolds, and step by step the way of man leads on toward final revelation. The world is not finished yet. There are more suns shining in interstellar space, and man should contemplate his origins and his tasks. God created Adam in his image. Yet what is the image of Adam?
Looking up to the sky on a cloudless day, the flaming disk of the sun is seen as it throws its rays of light to Earth. This planet receives solar energies in order to absorb and transform them. Whereas the sun at the center of the planetary system is visible, there is another Luminary which, however, is not visible, and because it cannot be perceived with the human senses it is called the Black Sun, it’s light being the Luminous, Shining Darkness. This Sun at the center of the Realm Hidden, is our Spiritual Sun, the Beacon beyond the Barrier of Visibility. It is the true Light to be sought.
While the visible sun spins in black space millions of miles distant from Earth, the Black Sun spins brightly in man himself, its spiritual luminosity guiding the individual on his Pilgrimage up the windings of the World-Mountain. The Earth absorbs and transforms the solar energies biospherically; the Black Sun, on its Orbit of Mystery, transforms man spiritually. When the Darkness is seen shining inwardly, the Deeps are rippling with revelation and the Light-Seed is being liberated from its imprisonment in space-time. Finally, the Eye is opened to behold Truth, and the Mosaic of Meaning is completed. Light over light, though Light is not as light.
The Seed is in man, and it is either physically or intellectually indestructible. However, with the Fall into space-time, it was buried deep in the Bowels of Earth, and it is exactly and only there where it can be found.
During the Fall, it was Luzifer who lost one of his Two Wings, thus becoming a prisoner on this planet. Now it is man’s task to recover that second Wing, because he is one with Luzifer, and the Seed of Light is in him.
There is a species that came from the stars in the past of earth history. They are the First Creation, which came out of the Waters, being the Messengers of the One, and their mission is to further Its plan. They are the Seed implanted, the Message, the Ray of Guidance to the Sanctuary that must be sought, and by seeking man must learn to read in himself. The inner is like the outer. Indeed, they are the symbols they brought with them out of the interstellar depths. And the individual transformed, the Venturing One, the Pilgrim; having recovered the Key to the Mysteries, will have become a symbol as well.
The Seed is in man, just as the Word is in man. The Word has been lost, and the Word must be found again. This world is a World of Resonance. There is a candlestick with seven branches. Yet what of the stick itself? There is a Serpent with seven heads. Yet what of the Being from which they protrude?
Seven Rivers flow forth from one Fountain. Seven is also the number of the Spectrum of Light in space-time. Eight is the number of the Oracle, the hidden energy-center in man, the Gateway-out-of-Space-Time.
The Pilgrimage to the Sanctuary is the Sacred Quest, the Journey leading up the World-Mountain, whose Beacon is the Black Sun spinning in the Space of Spirit. This Mountain is the Axis of the World, the Axis Mundi, its Summit the Pole. The Pilgrim climbs the Mountain of Salvation in spirals, it’s every winding a juncture of esoteric progress. So even the fiercest vicissitudes of life are to be used for the Awakening. Then, the Pilgrim becomes a dragon slayer, eventually taking a bath in the dragon’s poisonous blood, only to transform its property into a healing balm.
The Summit is the Pole. In ancient times Earth was often pictured as a Ship Overturned, being a profound esoteric symbolism in the Tradition of the Mystic Pole, in which the lower part of the body is the North Pole, and it’s upper part the South Pole.
The Tradition of the Mystic Pole is the Lore of the Goddess. Her esoteric teachings are “Polar.” Connected with it, there is the symbolism of the Black and the White Stone. A Black Stone of the Goddess is considered to be standing at the North Pole, because it is just there, geographically reversed, where the Whitening of the Stone takes place. Analogously in Alchemy, it is the Northern Sea whose Cover of Ice is to melt away so that the Seed can awake. Spirit mirrors itself upside down.
The symbolism of the Great Goddess, known under such names as Tiamat, Isis, Cybele, Magna Mater, is manifold. On the cosmic scale, the Goddess is the life-giving principle, the Matrix of God, universal manifestation.
As shall be seen, the universe is the Seventh Impulse of Creation, the Womb of the One. In this Womb universal evolution, the unfolding of the elements can take place. The Way of the Pilgrim to the Pole, however, leads out of this Womb. This is called the ‘Rite of Involution’ because we speak of the Two Spirals that are intertwined since the beginning. As the child emerges from the mother’s womb, man must emerge from the Universal Womb. And the Gateway is in flesh and blood. Being born into manifestation, the child comes from Day into Night. So the individual must return into Day, awake from Dreaming. Accordingly, the Work of Alchemy is completed “during the Night.” This is the Cosmic Solstice, Light to Light, Sun to Sun; Light Woven dissolves again into Light Unwoven.
The Seed is the Gift of God, given to man in the Days of Old. It is the Fifth Element, perceptible to the inward-looking one. And it is the goal to see the outer existence with the inward sight so that the Inner Realm can reveal itself in the outer world. Then, indeed, the Invisible Sun becomes visible and life can take its true Refuge.
Polar Knowledge is Knowledge blossomed to Wisdom. It is the Wisdom of the Goddess man must seek, and the Lore has been handed down the ages by means of an initiatory language, known to such prominent writers as Jules Verne, whose visions anticipated the era of space travel, and Howard Phillips Lovecraft, America’s “secret alchemist”, whose works contain a message only now to be understood in its esoteric profundity.
However, both authors encoded their messages of greatest significance by means of the so-called Phonetic Cabala, also called the “Green Language.” It is the “Argot” in French, and its Initiates are called the “Argotiers.” They steer the White Ship on its secret course through the world of man for the recovery of the Paradise Lost. Their language of initiation is called “green,” in that it is the Voice of the Green Zeus, of Arcadia Found.
The “Phonetic Cabala” derives its name from the Latin word cabzus, that is, “horse”. The similar Hebrew word kabbalah means “tradition”.
This Language is allegorically connected with Pegasus, the Winged Horse, Child of Medusa. In Greek myth, it was Perseus who set out for the beheading of that Gorgon, the hero being aided by Hermes, the Thrice-Great-One. Hermes gave Perseus a sickle with which to cut off Medusa’s head; a pair of winged sandals for divine swiftness, a magic wallet to contain the head, and the dark Hadean helmet of invisibility. In the Land of the Hyperboreans, beyond the Realm of Boreas, the North Wind, Perseus found Medusa, one of the Three Gorgons, asleep and managed to cut off her head with one stroke of the sickle. But from her dead body, there surprisingly came forth Pegasus, a strong Horse with Two Wings.
Medusa is the terrible aspect of the Goddess, and Pegasus springing from her beheaded body, became the symbol of Resurrection, one in meaning with the fabulous Phoenix that is reborn from his ashes.
The Phonetic Cabala is the Art of Words, used in such a manner as to pass on messages secretly. The Language of the Birds, as it is also called, la langue des Oiseaux in French, is of initiatory nature and purpose and relates to the Mysteries of the Goddess. Though used throughout the millennia, it was a particular characteristic of the French Troubadours in more recent history who were esoterically closely affiliated to Catharism and Templarism.
It was the view of the Troubadours and the Cathars that Heaven can only be reached through the love of a woman. And the male’s desire to be with a woman is based on his inborn desire to be spiritually reborn. He loves in the woman what he seeks in spirit, and while he must transform to deliver the Spirit-Child, the woman gives birth to the Child of Flesh and Blood. Indeed, the woman is the Soul to be sought and guarded by man, both Way and Destination at the same time in Troubadour thought. And indeed, only Love can find the Way to Heaven.
The Language of the Birds is the Language of the Gods. Called by Cyrano de Bergerac “Voice of Nature,” it is the Language of Tia-mat-Isis. It is also said that it was the knowledge of this initiatory language that Jesus revealed to his Apostles. Tradition also goes that it was spoken by man prior to the building of the Tower of Babel. In its allegorical poetry, there are hidden the Secrets of the Gods, the Secret of the Seed.
Phonetic Cabala is a language of multilingual puns, double entendre, in the middle-ages mostly consisting of Greek, Latin, and French. It is allusive and allegorical, biblical and mythological, and sometimes even contextually paradoxical. In the Cabala, the word Amor, that is, Love in Latin, serves as a code for “Rome,” being the reverse image of Truth. Amor is the Dark and Hidden Mistress, the Sleeping Beauty, Notre-Dame-Sous-Terre, the truthful source of inspiration and revelation. The Beauty is connected with the astrological sign of Virgo. Also, Virgo is Crater, the Secret Vessel of Resurrection in Alchemy, belonging to Caridwen in Celtic lore, being Odin’s Cauldron of Poetic Inspiration in Eddaic tradition, and possessed by Medea in Greek mysticism. This Vessel of Mysteries is linked with the Grail. Indeed, it is the Holy Grail itself. To the famous alchemist Albertus Magnus, Virgo was the sign of the Christ Rising, of the Second Coming.
The Language of the Birds is the Voice of Resurrection, its symbol being Pegasus, the Winged Horse reaching Heaven with his Two Wings. He is a true symbol of the one venturing up in spirals the thorny reaches of the World Mountain, for it is the Hidden Logos man must recover eventually. And having been healed from the wounds like the Fisher King no longer suffering from his infirmity, he can reach out for the Stars and the Spaces of Spirit.
The Lore of the Seed is written in the Book of the Deeps, and these Deeps are the Summit, the northernmost heights, clad in the everlasting Fog of Fire.
The Lore of the Goddess is the Tradition of the “Mystic Pole” which derives its name from the “pole,” “the end of the axis,” that is, polus in Latin. But there is a double-meaning in the word pole to be uncovered: Polus is derived from the “p-l-stem,” whereof words like A-p-o-l, i.e. Apollo, identical with the Abyssos, A-P-U-L, Apsu, the Babylonian God of the Waters, are composed. Since the above “p-l” -configuration is one with the “f-l-stem” in Indo-European Ianguages, we find such words as the Gothic F-u-l-a, Latin P-u-l-l-u-s, and Greek P-o-l-o-s designating the “young horse.”
Now, the Pole Tradition is uncovered as not only being the Lore of the axial World-Mountain but moreover as being symbolized by the Young Horse which is the newly born Winged Pegasus. Due to the etymological connection with the Babylonian word Apsu, designating the God and the House of the Waters, the Mystic Pole Tradition can also be called the Lore of the Deeps, the primordial teaching dating back to the times of the Order of Yore, of Tiamat and her Allies, as shall be elucidated in this book.
Life emerged from the Waters of the Deep, and in these Deeps it is where the Stone is hidden. This Stone is the Grail that fell from the Heavens, being the Miraculous Vessel of Isis, the Crater, the Virgin, being truly the Cauldron of Goodness and of Plenty. And its mysteries the alchemists of all ages have sought for their perfection.
Alchemy is the Sacred Science and its purpose was well summarized by Manly P. Hall (M. P. Hall, The Secret Teachings of All Ages, Philosophical Research Society, Los Angeles, 1994): “Alchemy teaches that God is in everything; that He is One Universal Spirit, manifesting through an infinity of forms. God, therefore, is the spiritual seed planted in the dark earth.”
The Seed spoken of is symbolized by the Black Stone or the Black Virgin, for it is the Pure that is hidden in the Impure-Janua Coeli, the Gateway of flesh and blood.
There have been Four World-Ages, the present being the fourth. The Fifth Age to come is that of Liberation, of the “Quintessence.” In this Kali Yuga, Luzifer and the Seed are caught. And it is in this present Age that it must be liberated from Exile. Another Golden Age is approaching, and Wisdom long lost for the majority of mankind will surface again. The Apex is missing, yet restoration of the Old Law brings round the Oracle of the Gods.
Heaven is a Place on Earth. The Gateway is here, and the Stone is buried deep in man himself, as it is buried deep in Earth. It is “of” the Heavens, and it is “from” the Heavens. It is “of ” the Heavens because it is of divine nature. And it is “from” the Heavens because it is the Gift of the Fallen One and the Wisdom of the Goddess. Luzifer is the Fallen One, and Luzifer is in man. Truly, the Stone is the Treasure of the Gods, the Eight Plane rising from the Seven.
