The Cry of the 19th Aethyr, Which is Called POP[1]
19. "The Path of Gimel (The Hegemone between the Pillars.
Preliminary: The Vision of the Unguided Universe.)"
Approaching Initiation at Tiphareth
At first there is a black web over the face of the stone. A ray of
light pierces it from behind and above. Then cometh a black cross,[2]
reaching across the whole stone; then a golden cross, not so large. And
there is a writing in an arch that spans the cross, in an alphabet in which
the letters are all formed of little daggers,[3] cross-hilted,
differently arranged. And the writing is: Worship in the body the things
of the body; worship in the mind the things of the mind; worship in the
spirit the things of the spirit.[4]
The “black cross” seems like the Tau of the Universe Atu, while the “golden cross” seems to represent Tiphareth. That the daggers are also made of crosses, we have the symbol of Air/Intellect and the Ruach.
