Pisces 12. A fantastic archaeological find is being kept secret. (Omega Symbol) Transforming/Sensitive
(Degree Angel Name: Nithael (NIT-ha-EL) The Death of Death, Rejuvenation and Eternal Youth)
TITLE: PROTECTION OF THAT WHICH IS TRULY IMPORTANT or THE ABILITY TO WAIT FOR THE RIGHT TIME TO BRING FORTH THE CONTENTS OF SELF
The past houses secrets which, if they could be known might have a transformative effect on the present. This degree is aware of how the self is always keeping secrets from itself – it is a technique the ego uses to try to maintain the structure it imposes on reality. There’s a persistent desire here to allow all secrets to be revealed, and to open up the treasure house of the past, even at the risk of threatening the ego.
The Chandra Symbol for this degree is “A woman asleep in a ring of flames.” One of the places in literature where this image is found is in the last part of “Die Valkure,” where the Valkerie Brunhilde is placed in a ring of flames by the king of the Gods, Wotan. She is to sleep there until a person with the requisite courage comes who has the power to rescue her. She, like the archaeological find of the Omega Symbol is, in a sense, being kept secret where she sleeps, high on a mountain.
On another level, this woman is the Shekinah, the Kabbalistic female spirit of one’s own wisdom, each one of us being the hero who will eventually pass through the frightening flame barrier of our own ego to wake her and unite with her.
Through total rest, through deep sleep and merging with pure being an alchemy is allowed to work and to draw to itself whatever will awaken it to a new world.
This degree may experience an intense yearning, but not be able to define what it is that it yearns for. It carries within itself a secret which, in lower stages of development, it may not even be aware of. The secret is the knowledge that the perfection one seeks is there, waiting, within, and will inevitably be discovered. This is the source of the mysterious patience and hope this degree brings to whatever it contacts.
The archaeological find of the Omega Symbol is actually your true self, which in fact you never lost, but which, until enlightenment, you’re keeping secret from yourself.
Pleiadian Symbol: A professor of symbology explaining a ritual. Thorough knowledge of the implications and deeper meanings of life’s patterns and structures.
Azoth Symbol: A horn used to convey messages over long distances. The ability to contact the deepest layers of self and others and to find a way to be heard. Even though the woman of the Chandra Symbol is isolated in her ring of flames her spirit calls out to her rescuer.
Seed degree: Leo 24. A drowning man turns into a fish. (Omega Symbol). That such a magical thing can happen is kept secret by the narrowness of our mind, only revealed when the mind is ready to let go of its limits.
Sunrise over Stonehenge. (Chandra Symbol). Becoming conscious of the beautifully balanced cosmic patterns in which we live, we perceive the inner goddess latent within ourselves and yearn for her awakening.
Fulfillment degree: Virgo 29. Pagans purifying themselves beneath a waterfall. (Omega Symbol). Letting go of searching out secrets, we give our curiosity a rest and allow the cleansing forces of nature to renew our spirit.
A witch preparing magic mushrooms. (Chandra Symbol). Drawing on the spirit of the inner goddess sleeping within us, we work with the forces of nature to create healing.
Oracle
Having gained the trust of the highest level of priestesses of the order of Quanaan, I have been informed that a certain archaeological find, discovered more than 100 years ago, has not yet been made public. This find is so amazing that I was told nothing of its nature. The secret was revealed to me, though, as a means of explaining an important principle.
This find, said my informant, reveals knowledge of such a profound nature that were it to be made public it would be misunderstood.
For the nature of knowledge is highly similar to the nature of life forms: Each bit of knowledge dwells in its own climate, is living, and needs highly particularized and specific conditions to sustain it. When the time is right, I was informed, this archaeological discovery and the wisdom it imparts will be eventually given to the world — when the consciousness of humanity is ready to receive and support its flowering.
