Man, briadly speaking, is a duplex mirror, reflecting the stellar forces in two directions; 1st., the astral influx from his body to the planes below humanity; 2nd., the finer ethereal essences of the stars from his soul to the aerial races in the spheres above.

Grasp this grand union of the soul and the stars; this mystical chain, which binds the infinite multiplicity into unity, as well as diversity into indentity.

Man, the microcosm, is, in himself, a miniature universe; composed of infinite atoms; which are in a constant state of action and re-action; not only among themselves; but also, with the infinite atoms of the larger universe, the macrocosm.

So different are the people and the conditions which surround us; from the those who lived in the days of old, when the wise men of Chaldea communed with the beautiful constellations of heaven; and learned therefrom, the mighty secrets of the souls origin and destiny; as well as the material details of their physical lives.

The head, hands and feet, are the 5 points of projection from which, streams of vital force are constantly radiating. These 5 are symbolized by the 5 pointed star and the 5 sided figure. This quintile, the Grecian symbol hygeia, was the Pythagorean symbol of health, and when these 5 points radiate their forces in straight lines from their various centere, the result is perfect health.

Man has 5 positive points of projection and 4 pisitive centers of energy, thus making up the mystical nine, the symbol of Deity. In addition to these, he has one great receptive center, which completes the number of the 10 Sephiroth.

Goodsness alone is Power.
