A New Day is Born...
When the Sun rises at the winter solstice, it is in Capricorn, an earthy sign; and, as the Sun is then lowest in declination, this position often is referred to symbolically as a tomb or cave. Thus it is that Mithra, the Persian god of light, is held to have been born in a cave; and Jesus remained three days in the tomb before the stone was rolled away and he emerged.
When the Sun has remained three days at its lowest declination, it then starts climbing, and continues to climb during the next six months until it reaches its pinnacle. This persistent tendency to climb, the ambition to mount higher and higher, is one of the chief characteristics of people born while the Sun is in Capricorn, from December 22 to January 20; therefore, the ancients who traced the starry figures in the firmament, to portray this attribute of both Sun and people born in the sign, employed the picture of a Goat, an animal which customarily moves to the mountain tops.
In addition to vaunting ambition, the natives of Capricorn also possess a flair for diplomacy. They can employ whatever is at hand to best advantage, giving the sign its Key phrase, “I Use.” They are equally at home and able to adapt to any environment. Therefore, the ancient constellation represents not a common Goat, such as travels merely on the land; but one with the tail of a fish, enabling it, when occasion requires, to also live in the water.

O Thou Eternal Spirit, in Whom I live, move, breathe and have my Being! Awaken in me the knowledge that joy and mirth, love and music, beauty and art are good. Help me to express more of the gaiety in life. Give me courage in difficulties, let me smile in adversity and above all bring to my heart the realization that the interest of all is more important than the interest of self.
In this classic series, Elbert Benjamine explains the astrological significance of the sign Sagittarius and its relationship to Arcanum VII, The Conqueror tarot card...
Cosmic Alchemists “view the world as one big organization of workers in which the success of the organization depends upon the development of the highest possibilities of every person, and upon the opportunity to fully exercise these abilities. World progress depends upon the advancement of all people.”
“It is the desire of the cosmic alchemist that all the people of the world shall make as great intellectual and spiritual progress as possible, and for reasons briefly stated in Chapter 1 the cosmic alchemist believes this can be accomplished only by providing freedom from want, freedom from fear, freedom of expression and freedom of worship to all the people of the world.”
As America became engaged in WWII, President Roosevelt outlined these four freedoms and artist Norman Rockwell created a series of paintings outlining them as goals that extended beyond defeating the wartime Axis of powers.
It is good to remember that as citizens of the Cosmos we are here on this planet to develop our abilities and flourish as emissaries of Deity by Contributing our Utmost to Universal Welfare and to work toward the realization that all people of earth will enjoy the four freedoms.

Why Astrology and the Tarot are so important to understanding Traditional Knowledge
“The word Kabala signifies traditional knowledge. It thus refers to the Oral Law, as handed down from antiquity; and embraces the occult traditions of all lands and all peoples. Often it is used merely as referring to the esoteric doctrines of the Jews; but in its broader sense it includes also the secret doctrine of other races. This secret doctrine, common to many lands, was jealously guarded from the profane, and was never permitted to pass into writing except in such ambiguous terms as to baffle the uninitiated as to its true purport. “In this sense the sacred books of the world, including the Avesta, the Vedas and the Bible are largely kabalistical; for they set forth traditions that are capable of an inner, or esoteric, interpretation. In fact, there are usually several interpretations possible, each more inner version revealing a deeper truth to those who have advanced along the path far enough to comprehend it.”
“And this seems the proper place to point out that the unwritten kabala, like the written kabala, is set forth in symbolical language, with purposeful blinds and subterfuges to confuse the uninitiated; so that of the few who undoubtedly exist at the present day who have received it, most remain in as much ignorance of its true interpretation as the majority of students do after studying the more accessible written kabala. “This unwritten kabala has been transmitted only through certain secret schools. Those receiving it well merit what is given to them. They are left to their own devices in the matter of interpretation. And because the real keys to its interpretation—astrology and the tarot—have been largely ignored, or distorted, they have floundered sadly in arriving at its meaning. Whether written or unwritten, the kabala is a philosophy correlated to esoteric astrology as exemplified by the tarot; and it can only be comprehended fully by those who perceive the true relation between
astrological energies and their pictured tarot exemplification.”
