The Twelve Labours of Heracles<br />

1. The boar of Mount Erymanthus is a Sun symbol depicting the issuing forth of the Sun<br />

on its annual journey. It relates to the Higher Self "slaying" or emanating the Lower Self.<br />

2. The Nemean lion is the lower personality the desires of which must be killed out. Then<br />

Heracles wears the lion skin just as a yogi sits on a tiger skin.<br />

3. The hydra or hundred-headed serpent is a symbol of the ten sign zodiac. It is slain only<br />

when the Soul reaches perfection and frees itself from the Wheel.<br />

4. The hind of Artemis, the power of the Virgin in Virgo, is hunted for one year (the full<br />

cycle of the zodiac).<br />

5. The Stymphalos birds represent the lower desires of the marshes of the Astral Plane<br />

(the sea of desire).<br />

6. The Augean stables denote the cleansing of the Lower Self by the two rivers (energies<br />

of the two serpents Ida and Pingala).<br />

7 .The Cretan bull is Taurus through which the Monad descends into incarnation as the<br />

Gemini twins of the Higher and Lower Selves.<br />

8. The four mares of Diomedes are the Lower Self.<br />

9. The Girdle of the Amazon is the belt of Venus - Ares denoting the Aries (Mars) Libra<br />

diameter of the zodiac.<br />

10. The cattle of Geryon are the (50) spiritual energies of the seven planes.<br />

11. Cerberus with three heads is the Lunar Triad or Lower Self.<br />

12. The golden apples (Gk. melon or fleece) are at the top of the Aries-Libra axis in<br />

Aries, the spiritual source of the Monad.<br />
