1.2 Seven Levels of Creation
There is a remarkable symbol that represents the seven levels of creation
as described in the first chapter of the Book of Genesis. The figure
below shows this symbol. It is called the Enneagram (ennea or
enniá is Greek for nine).
It was Georges Ivanovitch Gurdjieff (1868 – 1949), who brought the
knowledge represented in this symbol out in the open. In order to
make sure only the true seekers of Wholly Science would discover
the knowledge hidden in the Enneagram, Mister Gurdjieff deliberately
altered some details. That is why my explanation as described
below differs from the ones Piotr Dimianovich Ouspensky (1878 –
1947) gives in his revealing books.
The explanation of the mysterious symbol of the
Enneagram begins with the two small triangles,
corresponding to the two lower corners of the
dotted triangle within the circle. The small triangle
pointing upwards represents a male shock
(yang), while the small triangle pointing downwards
represents a female shock (yin). Both
shocks are necessary to overcome the vibrational distances between
the neighboring wholly tones that lack an intermediate semitone.
The female, yin shock is directed inwards, which means incoming
or positive (+). The ingoing, female shock occurs between the Mi

and the Fa. The male, yang shock, on the other hand, is directed
outwards, which means outgoing or negative (-). The outgoing, male
shock starts between the Sol and the La, but his effect occurs between
the Si and the Do (where this shock is needed to overcome the
vibrational distance between Si and Do).
Day Tone Meaning Number
0 Do Dominus, the Lord 1
1 Si Sidera, all stars 2
2 La Lactea, Milky Way 3
3 Sol Sol, sun Helios 6
4 Fa Fāta, fate, planets 12
5 Mi Microcosm, Terra 24
6 Re Regina, moon Luna 48
At the top level of the Ray of Creation, we find the wholeness or
unity of the tone Do meaning Dominus or the Lord. The number 1
represents this wholly (or Holy) unity. In the first chapter of Genesis,
this corresponds to Day 0 of the Creation.
At the level of Si meaning Sidera (all stars of all galaxies), we
find the creation of the division between the stars and the space in
between these stars. This is the duality between light (yang) and
darkness (yin). The number 2 represents this duality. In the first
chapter of Genesis, this corresponds to Day 1 of the Creation.
∆ male Light Fire electric outgoing yang -
∇ female Dark Water magnetic ingoing yin +
Light corresponds to the electric energy of Fire (yang), and the Darkness
with the magnetic energy of Water (yin), as shown in the table
above. Fire and Water are the names of cosmic energies. That is why
the first chapter of Genesis repeatedly mentions both light and water.
At the level of La meaning Lactea or the Milky Way, we find the
creation of the trinity. The number 3 represents this trinity. In the
first chapter of Genesis, this corresponds to Day 2 of the Creation.
