The ark of the Divine Mother is the carris-navale or carnival such as that at Baris. The<br />

boat-shaped cups of the Mysteries are the arga of Zeus-Soter or Zeus-Pitar who is the<br />

"saviour" or "father" (pitri) who guides the Monads into and through the new cycle of<br />

manifestation. Zeus-Pitar is, of course, Jupiter, the planetary ruler of Pisces, the Great<br />

Sea.<br />

In Athens at the Panathenaea the sacred ship was borne through the city to the temple of<br />

Demeter with the greatest reverence. An ark was also used in the mysteries of Bacchus<br />

held in March to accord with the zodiacal period of Pisces. The Celtic goddess Ceridwyn<br />

also had a sacred boat or ark (argat, arck or arawn) and the Christian church retains the<br />

nave or ship and the piscini or font of the fishes of Pisces before the altar at the East Point<br />

of Aries. So the Mysteries transcend Time.<br />

The Ark as a Vehicle of the Star-Monads (B)<br />

It has been customary in the Christian festival of Shrove Tuesday to carry the Virgin<br />

Mary in a ship or ark to and from the church. This represents the passage of the Monad<br />

through the Great Sea of the Virgin Mother in Pisces.<br />

In the rites of Astarte, Isis or Venus the ark is the "ship of life" which, as the ark of Noah,<br />

carries the seeds of life into manifestation. These are the seeds of the pomegranate on the<br />

hem of Aaron's ephod or robe. Birth is from the egg of Ra issued from the mouth of<br />

Kneph (the serpent energies of Fohat). In Babylonia the egg is sacred to Beltis or Ishtar<br />

as a symbol of resurrection and eternal life. It is the Easter Egg of Aries.<br />

The Lotus floats like a boat on the Ocean of the Cosmos being, fecundated by the central<br />

cell in the procreative Waters. In Hinduism Vishnu urged the Manu Vaivasvata to build<br />

an ark to escape the flood. In fact the Manu Vaivasvata is the spiritual leader or controller<br />

of the Monads for a particular cycle (See The <strong>Aquarian</strong> Mandala).<br />

Deucalion built an ark for his family and animals, as did Seisithros of Armenia, Xisuthros<br />

of Chaldea, Cox-Cox in Mexico, and Hyrm of Scandinavia. This is a Cosmic Symbol of<br />

the transfer of Monads.<br />
