The Soul <strong>of</strong><strong>the</strong> <strong>Kabbalah</strong><br />

Hexagram, and is like <strong>the</strong> Soul <strong>of</strong> Microprosopus or <strong>the</strong> Elohim<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> human Tetragrammaton. Therefore in <strong>the</strong> head,<br />

which is its natural and chiefseat, are formed <strong>the</strong> seven apertures<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> head. This is <strong>the</strong> Spiritual Consciousness as distinct<br />

from <strong>the</strong> human consciousness. It is manifested in seven<br />

as just said or in eight if Daad: be included. The Fa<strong>the</strong>r is <strong>the</strong><br />

Sun (Chokmah). The Mo<strong>the</strong>r is <strong>the</strong> Moon (Binah) The Wind<br />

beareth it in his bosom (Ruach). Its nurse is <strong>the</strong> Earth (Nephesch).<br />

The power is manifested when it can be vibrated<br />

through <strong>the</strong> Earth.<br />

The following is <strong>the</strong> true attributions <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> seven apertures<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> head:<br />

Right Ear - Saturn<br />

Left Ear - Jupiter<br />

Right Eye - Sol<br />

Left Eye - Luna<br />

Mouth - Mercury (who is <strong>the</strong> messenger <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Gods)<br />

Right Nostril - Mars<br />

Left Nostril- Venus<br />

These latter represent here <strong>the</strong> sonoriferous sense. The<br />

right and left eye, <strong>the</strong> luminous sense, as <strong>the</strong> Sun and Moon<br />

are <strong>the</strong> luminaries <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Macrocosm. The right and left nostrils<br />

through which <strong>the</strong> breath passes, giving strength to <strong>the</strong><br />

physical body, are under Mars and Venus. The mouth is under<br />

Mercury, <strong>the</strong> messenger and <strong>the</strong> Speaker.<br />

This spiritual consciousness is a focus <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> action <strong>of</strong><br />

Neschamah. The lower will-power should control <strong>the</strong> descent <strong>of</strong><br />

this spiritual consciousness into <strong>the</strong> Ruach, and <strong>the</strong>nce into <strong>the</strong><br />

Nephesch, for <strong>the</strong> consciousness must descend into <strong>the</strong> Nephesch<br />

before <strong>the</strong> images <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Sphere <strong>of</strong> Sensation can be perceived.<br />

For it is only <strong>the</strong> rays <strong>of</strong> this consciousness permeating<br />

<strong>the</strong> Ruach that can take cognizance <strong>the</strong>re<strong>of</strong>. This faculty <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

spiritual consciousness is <strong>the</strong> seat <strong>of</strong> Thought. Thought is a<br />

Light proceeding from <strong>the</strong> radiation <strong>of</strong> this spiritual consciousness,<br />

traversing <strong>the</strong> Ruach as Light traverseth Air, and encountering<br />

<strong>the</strong>reafter <strong>the</strong> symbols reflected in <strong>the</strong> sphere <strong>of</strong><br />

Sensation, or magical mirror <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Universe. These symbols<br />

are by its radiation <strong>of</strong> (i.e., that <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Thought) reflected again<br />

into <strong>the</strong> Spiritual Consciousness where <strong>the</strong>y are subjected unto<br />
