Man is a microcosm, a universe within himself, and as such, he is a perfect epitome of the infinite Universe, the Macrocosm. The Chaldean sages, therefore, when constructing their mighty system of sidereal astrology, held to this idea throughout the whole of their philosophy. In order to penetrate the mysteries of God, they first sought out the mysteries of man, and then formulated a complete science of correspondences. The Human organism, so complex in its wonderful mechanism and so beautifully harmonious in all its parts, became their architectural design upon which they constructed the Grand Man of the starry heavens. The twelve signs of the celestial zodiac were divided into sections of the human frame, so that the entire zodiacal belt was symbolized as a man bent round in the form of a circle, the soles of the feet placed against the back of the head. Each of the twelve signs contains 30 degrees (of space) the whole making the 360 degrees of a circle. This 360 is the symbol of completion. When the 3 and 6 are added together, they make 9, thus 3+3=9, which is the highest unit we possess, and as such is held to be the sacred number of Deity. It is a triune trinity — 3x3. The mystical symbolism relating to the 12 signs of the zodiac and the human organism holds an important position in our system. In this connection, they form the body of a musical instrument as it were, while the Sun, Moon and planets constitute the strings. Our bodies then, when astrologically considered, are merely sounding boards for the celestial notes, struck by the starry musicians during the performance of their celestial opera, 'The Music of the Spheres.' As it is above, so it is below. As on Earth, so in the Sky."—Thomas H. Burgoyne, The Light of Egypt

You must write. You must visit the water. You must talk to the trees, and to God. You must love. You must remember. You must learn to eat better. You must call down your dead with drum and gin. You must—live. Again and again and again.

The most dangerous forecast is the one that tells you exactly what you hope is true. Always be discerning about who you listen to.

‘Reaching down, deep inside No idea what I'd find The dream is over You crossed the fucking line Chaos ensues There's always so much more to lose Chaos ensues Just when I felt I was breaking through A lifetime of want Summed up with everything gone No remorse You never even said you were fucking sorry You piece of shit Now it's too late’ Crash and Burn - Hollow Front @hollowfrontband @jtcavey
