Random Archetype Insights

[Nau7ik]

I decided to start Book 4 again for study and I had an interesting insight with the Star and the Moon yesterday regarding the 1) the black and white diamond in the Star, and 2) the black and white pyramids and jackals in the Moon. I was able to look a little bit more deeply than I had before...



The black and white diamond in the “Catalyst of the Spirit” represents the dual-potential of catalyst. That it can be used for positive or negative polarization. Now, the diamond in the Star is broken in half and become pyramids in the Moon. (I can’t find the image for the Moon in the Church of Light deck design, so I’m using a similar representation.)



The pyramids with the jackals of reverse color on each side represent the experience of the spirit. The white pyramid is STO polarization with a black jackal guarding it. The jackal is black because seemingly negative experiences help us to develop positive STO biases whereas the black pyramid with the white jackal represents STS polarization with seemingly positive experiences producing negative biases. This is quite appropriate under the Moon for the Moon may reveal “truth in shadows” or falsity.

That’s all I have for now regarding these two. Plenum has already spoken on these two, but the symbols finally clicked for me so I thought I’d share my understanding. Ra said that we should attempt our own understandings so that’s what I am trying to do now.
