The Emerald Tablet of THOTH Tablet 11 The Key to Above and Below

 



"That which is Below corresponds to that which is Above, and that which is Above corresponds to that which is Below,to accomplish the miracle of the One Thing." BE this the constant of the interchange, of each element, of all life forms, of the call to unity, of the quest for purpose, of the PRESENCE of Beauty, of TRUTH, of BEING. Behold the sacredness of counsel, of light, of grace.



The Emerald Tablet of THOTH
Tablet 11
The Key to Above and Below
"List ye, now to my voice and become
greater than common man.
Lift thine eyes upward,
let Light fill thy being,
be thou ever Children of Light.
Only by effort shall ye grow upward to
the plane where Light is the All of the All.
Be ye the master of all that surrounds thee.
Never be mastered by the effects of thy life.
Create then ever more perfect causes
and in time shalt thou be a Sun of the Light
Free, let thine soul soar ever upward,
free from the bondage and fetters of night.
Lift thine eyes to the Sun in the sky-space.
For thee, let it be a symbol of life.
Know that thou art the Greater Light,
perfect in thine own sphere,
when thou art free.
Look not ever into the blackness.
Lift up thine eyes to the space above.
Free let thine Light flame upward
and shalt thou be a Child of the Light."

... yes, and I invite all to take counsel...

"...Lift thine eyes to the Sun in the sky-space.
For thee, let it be a symbol of life.
Know that thou art the Greater Light,
perfect in thine own sphere,
when thou art free.,,"


...and so too, I proclaim...

Light Be Known
from shadows light be known
a rising day this moment shown
the quest of light ever present be
in this firmament, this celestial sea
hues and tones of moving grace
within a timeless moment I embrace
eternal majesty be the sky above
blessed I am with this the Creator's love
within this beauty a moment sublime
within this moment light's quest divine.

The 4th Day of Christmas



On the 4th Day of Christmas my true love sent to me


Four Calling birds
A calling ever ever heard
The voice of song so very sweet
Upon the wings of Spirit to greet
A call to peace, gratitude, faith and love
To this wondrous earth and heaven above
And to those in memory now cast
Love for days now past
To the hearts and souls of all that live
A calling to all for life's gift to give.
Blessings to All

Post Laureate
Orangetown, New York

It has been put forth: :"Four calling birds symbolizes the four Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, which spread the good news of Christ's life and teachings."

ANOINTED

 



At one time in history the poet was revered for the soul of his/her words.. a philosopher, a mystic, a counselor, a lover of truth and beauty, a visionary... ever in revelation...❤

Heard is the lament, offered are the words of A POET Counselor...
Shared in reverence, in revelation, in resolve...
                                                    ... be this the counsel of the soul...

ANOINTED
webs of thought, echoes of time sound
the din of shocked sensibilities
what was, now is once more
hush, hush be the cry, the plea
free what is trapped deep within me
shed these shackles of shadow and despair
heed the cry for resolve and Creation's care
listen, listen, and there shall be heard
the search, the want of the guiding WORD
let there be a command of self whole and true
let the bonds of torment give way to light ever new
live the embrace of GOD's majesty and supernal love
the blessings of grace, the sun, the moon. the stars, above
within your BEING the power, the volition to be
Anointed by the PRESENCE OF THEE.

...and I in respectful response... a shared perception ...
Begetting Treasure
the garden will be attended to and the weeds will grow
the rooms will be put in order and the clutter soon to show
the bills will be paid and more due to come
what is completed will again call to be done
but when a poem I come to write all is complete and shall ever BE
words a Birth Eternal granted unto you unto me
the garden, the rooms, the bills and too, poetic pleasure
words, words, each its own ever present begetting treasure
a poet laureate, I am in designation named
within THE MUSE entreats a word, and so its poetic claim
received I, honor in Proclamation, for words from heart to share
and to this, blessed be the knowing of the Creator's loving care.

...letters in commune... letters differently delineated ... 
and so meanings of its own nature...

...and asked... what be you poet ...
I in the glory of the triune... the calling within each letter of P O E T ...
the pulse, the passion, the purpose
the omnipresence, the one , the offering
the exchange, the evolution, the eternal 
the trust, the truth, the treasure 
I in the glory of the triune... the calling within each letter of P O E T ...
