In that of the Jupiterian, we find the bigness - or the
influences as have most to do with that of material gains
and material relationships; yet these are only as secondary
influences in the entity's experience, being ruled rather
by that of the Mercurian - through the mental forces, rather
than of position or power; yet being in that influence brings
the usage or the applications OF such influences to the
entity, and as to the application of self and the usage
of same may the entity gain or lose most in the present
experience. Also we find in certain PERIODS do the
influences of that seen in Uranus bring much influence in
the experience of the entity, so that there has been, there
will be, those periods in which many judge the entity -
in its usage of self, in usage of self's experience in the
application of the experiences of life - as an extremist;
being rather one, then, who has moods and angles, as it were,
to the manner of thinking, acting, speaking, and activities;
taking, then, those of the various sports, or of the various
conditions as may be presented, as one that acts on such in
an UNSEEMLY manner, to some - yet they are as but fads to
the entity.
In the abilities as then may be seen, the OPPORTUNITIES come
to the entity through those of the mental forces of self, and
of that as is seen in the Venus and Jupiter influence. As
duty, never. As privilege, much. As abilities, many.
As to the conditions that may be builded, these will depend
upon the APPLICATION of self in the direction of the USAGE
of that as IS as of talents or abilities in the relationships
of the entity, whether as friend, foe, or associate, or
acquaintance.
In the appearances, and their influence in the present
experience:
These, as we find - while few in the earth's plane - have
been VARIED in their application, and in the experiences
as have been had by the entity IN the various appearances.
In the one, then, before this, we find in that period when
there was the rebuilding of the temple; the entity then among
those who, under the teachings of the aide to Ezekiel in this
period, gained much as to those influences in the application
of abilities in music and song in the temple worship; being,
then, of those that were raised to those positions as aide to
the PRIESTS in that period, the entity - in the name Zeliah -
gained during that experience, and in the present much of the
mental and of the love forces is that as manifested in the
present entity. These of religious convictions, these of
decided opinions, these as of the activities in soul forces,
are as but the reflection of experiences in the Holy City.
In the one, then, before this, we find in that land known
as the Peruvian land, during those periods when there were
builded much of those in the Incals' influence. The entity
then of the peoples of the land, suffered much in PHYSICAL
during this period, being of those who were close to those
who guarded and kept the temples, yet the entity did not
WHOLLY - in its MENTAL self - conform to the ritual ideas
of those peoples. In the present we find much of that as is
innate as respecting ritual and of ceremony. While these are
not as contempt, or contemptible TO the entity, to the entity
they are as UNNECESSARY, as that they may be reached by a
more direct route than by a VARIATION as to the APPLICATION
of self as respecting ceremonies. In the name Is-Ist.
In the one before this we find in the land known as the
Egyptian, and the entity among those who were of the peoples
that were conquered in the establishing of the first of
those that brought to the peoples an understanding OF
the relationships to the divine influences. During this
experience the entity gained and lost in this experience, for
the entity one among those who did not concede that they were
a conquered people, or that that presented by the invaders -
or intruders, as felt, during the experience of the entity -
was equal to, or better than, that life as was aforetime to
the entity; yet in the latter days, with the establishing of
the various variations in speech, in the application of the
vocational folk of the experiences of the law as respecting
man's relationship to man, man's relationship to the divine
forces, in the teachings in all the various arts as presented
by the peoples under a combined force, the entity became one
of these who finally acted as a bearer of tidings to their
own peoples. In this the entity gained. In the applications
of resentment the entity lost. In the name El-Ind.
In the abilities of the entity in the present, as may be
seen these lie in VARIED directions; yet the ability to
carry tidings of understanding to those who are in ceremonial
lines, or those who would stand alone on ceremony and
pattern, may the entity add most to self's understanding, may
the entity gain the most in the present experience; for in
enabling self to be a carrier of such, one first learns to
conquer, to master, to understand, and to aid self. Keep
true to those builded in the Holy City. Keep aligned with
the messages as were given through the armor bearer to
Ezekiel, for in the lines as are given in the forces of that
one may the entity come to understand self best. We are
through.
