Stella Maris - Symbolism - Gnostic Alchemy

The Cosmic Mother is the astral signature of the sacred sperm. She is the shiny star that emerges from the bottom of the sea, from the metallic Chaos of the sperm. She is Stella Maris, the igneous part of Mercury. She guides and directs us in the Great Work. She is the one who helps us in the whole work of the Great Work.

Stella Maris is the Virgin of the Sea, of the interior spermatic sea that one carries within. It is from this sea that this generous star emerges, which is the igneous part of the sperm.

Stella Maris is the symbolic star that guides every magician. She is the one who directs the Great Work. She is the astral signature of the sacred sperm. She is the Divine Mother Kundalini Shakti.

The Metaphysical View of Death and Life After Death

From:www.worldtocome.org
At times the soul undergoing transition is led across rivers with the aid of an escort. In Greek myths, Charon, the boatman, was assigned the task of guiding souls to the Other side. Hermes, acting as psychopompos, led deserving souls to Olympus. ... In other religions, the escort of the soul is the Angel of Death,
Muslims call this Angel of Death, "Izrail."
There is a possibility that escorts of the soul do not always fetch departing souls from the Other side. They may, in fact, also come from our physical dimension aiding souls in their transition. What we are intimating is that the mastery of astral projection or lucid dreaming actually gives the mystic or psychic the power to act as psychopompos, or guide of the soul.

The Hebrew Letter Hei

Hebrew Letter Hei

Which in Kabbalah symbolizes the uterus, the primordial matrix or matrass ה “Hei”
 ה “Hei” encloses the three Divine manifestations of God : Father (the seed, Prana), Mother (the land, Akasa) and Son (the Universe).
The human soul or consciousness has to create (within uterus ה) three vehicles of expression (bodies or garments); these are the Astral Body, the Mental Body and the Body of Willpower.

The three lines which compose the form of the letter “Hei” correspond to these three bodies that we need to create:
the upper horizontal line symbolizes the body of the will of God;
the right vertical line is the Human Mind directed by the will of God;
the unattached line is related to emotional actions based on the connection or disconnections of our human heart to our divine thoughts and divine will.

Symbol of the Pentagram


pentagram
Gnostic Teachings:
..the flaming pentagram, the blazing star, the sign of divine omnipotence. This is the ineffable symbol of the Word made flesh, the terrifying star of the Magi.
When the pentagram elevates its two inferior rays towards the sky it represents Satan.
When the pentagram becomes light, it elevates only one of its rays towards the sky; this represents the internal Christ of every human being who comes into this world.

The human being with his legs and arms spread out to the right and left is the star of five points. Brain and sex live in an eternal struggle. Brain must control sex. When sex overcomes the brain, then the star of five points (the human being) falls into the abyss with the feet pointing upwards and the head pointing downwards; this is the inverted star, the male goat of Mendes. A human figure with the head aiming downwards and the feet aiming upwards naturally represents a demon.
The entire science of Gnosis is found summarized within the flaming star. Many Bodhisattvas (human souls of Masters) have fallen inverted, like the five pointed star, with the superior ray aiming downwards and the two inferior rays aiming upwards.
gnosticteachings.org

From Wikipedia:
Sumerian: Sumerian hieroglyphs/pictograms it is shown with two points up.
Babylonian
In the Babylonian context, the edges of the pentagram were probably orientations: forward, backward, left, right, and "above".These directions also had an astrological meaning, representing the five planets Jupiter, Mercury, Mars and Saturn, and Venus as the "Queen of Heaven" (Ishtar) above.

Pythagorus
The Pythagoreans called the pentagram ὑγιεία Hugieia ("health"; also the Greek goddess of health, Hygieia), and saw in the pentagram a mathematical perfection (see Geometry section below).

The ancient Pythagorean pentagram, with two legs up, represented the Pentemychos (πεντέμυχος "of five sanctuaries"), a cosmogony written by Pythagoras' teacher and friend Pherecydes of Syros.It was the "island" or "cave"where the first pre-cosmic-offspring had to be put in order for the cosmos to appear: "the divine products of Chronos' seed [σπέρμα spérma], when disposed in five recesses, were called Πεντέμυχος (Pentemuxos)".

from guardiansofdarkness.com
The true Pythagorean pentacle was (and is) two points up and was considered a Pentagrammon - a house in the center, a pentagon (pentagonas) representing the Self, and the five points or blazing angles (pentalpha) represented the Pentemychos - inside the angles, and outside of them - every single line has meaning in this Master Glyph
So, the pentagram was also a symbol of the Ammon, which is Pan.

bibliotecapleyades


Dove - Peace

Symbols Snake, Eagle, Bird & Cat

... interventions can be found in all ancient mythologies, that speak of how the 'Gods' keep on meddling in human affairs, and keep on having fights among each other over these interventions... Quite often these mythological stories mention snake people, which usually is a reference to the Sirians, whereas bird, eagle or cat people usually refer to the Lyrans and Pleiadians.
(Sometimes, however, the 'snake people' are a reference to a third group of aliens, the Draconian group, or 'Lizzies.' Even though there are indications that these aliens, too, have been around on this planet for tens of thousands of years, they have only recently started playing an active part in its history, again!).

 At a given moment in time, members of this Sirian Group started needing ‘workers' to assist them in colonizing the planet. Through genetic manipulation they created mankind, by blending their own DNA with the DNA of earth primates and the predecessors of man (Neanderthal).

From that moment on, Earth becomes the scene of constant disputes between, mainly, two groups of alien civilizations.
  • On the one hand, there are the Sirians, joined by some Vega\Vegans, some (renegade) Pleiadians and some Orion civilizations
  • On the other hand there are the Pleiadians and the Lyrans, also joined by some Orion civilizations
The fights nearly always were over mankind, and on several occasions they interfered in our history.

Life has initiated its return towards the Great Light and in these moments we have to define ourselves by becoming eagles or reptiles, Angels or demons.
