lead now is spiritual death. Only Intuition (Virgo) can awaken the Soul to its true<br />

purpose.<br />

On an Etruscan vase there is a depiction of the scene where Alcestis is parted from<br />

Admetos as appeared on one of the columns of the temple of Artemis of Ephesus.<br />

Admetos is the Monad, Alcestis is the Soul<br />

and Heracles (Sun in Leo) who defeats Thanatos is the Atma-Sun, ruler of Leo, who rules<br />

the Higher Self. Apollo, the Sun in Aries had granted immortality to Admetos, who is our<br />

Monad, or Father in Heaven. Thanatos carries the two serpents of Ida and Pingala<br />

strangled by Heracles at his birth. He has the winged sandals of Mercury, the<br />

psychopomp or leader of Souls to and from the Lower Self in the Hades of Earth-life.<br />

Some Residents of the<br />

Greek Hades<br />

Sisyphus was a descendant of the first man, Deucalion. Zeus sent Thanatos (Death) to<br />

seize him but Sisyphus chained him like Satan in the Bible. When his physical body died<br />

Sisyphus asked Death if he could return to Earth to bury it but failed to return to Hades<br />

afterwards. As a perpetual punishment Zeus<br />

made him roll a stone up a hill. When it fell down he had again to roll it up. (This stone is<br />

the Soul and the rolling is the cycle of the zodiac. We reincarnate around the Wheel of<br />

Life many times before we become perfect even as our Father-Monad which is in Heaven<br />

is perfect.)<br />

Tantalus was placed in a lake (the astral desire level) with a branch of fruit above him.<br />

When he tried to reach the fruit it receded from him. Our unsatisfied desires bind us to<br />

the physical plane.<br />

Ixion was fastened to a wheel of fire (the zodiac) because he tried to rape Hera (the<br />

Mother Goddess or source of the Soul in Pisces, the Cosmic Ocean of Love-Wisdom).<br />

The guardian of Hades is the three-headed dog Cerberus who has serpents' tails. These<br />

three heads symbolize the three parts of the Lower Self or Lunar-Triad ruled by Scorpio<br />
