The Flame of Easter

Have you ever considered the tradition of a sacred candle, it was made from the fat of a sacrificial lamb, the first born. In some biblical stories it was the first-born son who was sacrificed to YHVH
a blood thirsty demon, one might thing.

 

There are 12 tribes of ancient Israel, yes, they represent the zodiac. The first sign is Aries, the ram/lamb, the first sign representing among other things, your ego. Upon the spiritual journey Aries is the first born. There are 2 baptisms expressed in this lineage – birth, baptism by water, and initiation by fire. Light, enlightenment, is created by your soul devouring what you thought you were. There is a sarcophagus within the pyramid for a reason. Christ overcame death to tell you this.

 

In many images, above his head are the letters INRI, Jesus of Nazareth, king of Israel. The alchemic/initiatic translation is, “All Nature is renewed by fire”.

The matter the flame feeds upon is the fat of the first born in the second birth, creating light, enlightenment.

All my work is rooted in what I call the Tetragrammic Key, YHVH.
This key opens the door.
YHVH written in Hebrew and aligned vertically creates a hieroglyphic of man.
“In Gods image were we created”.
I have posted this image many times.
The Zohar, the book of enlightenment places the 4 letters upon the 4 divisions of a flame, burning dogma away and exposing the light.

The 2 Hey’s
one above and
one below
Heaven and Hell.
Heaven and hell may be different words in other languages, but you are here now, you can only understand this now, these divine things have their Tao, their way. The lower H is the burning wick, a red-hot hell, the above H is the white light, heaven – simple enough?  A flame is ignited by another flame, this being the divine flame, the letter Shin,
the spirit of God, ignites, giving us the name YHSVH  Jeshuah, Jesus; God incarnates, baptism by fire.

Light a candle and observe the 4 divisions for yourself: the burning wick, the blue-black flame, the white light and a subtle all-encompassing flame. “For the Lord YOUR God (Your God not mine but yours) is a consuming fire”.

In the image there are 3 being crucified, Christ and the 2 thieves: Sulphur, Salt and Mercury. The symbol of alchemic Sulphur/soulfire is an upright triangle rising above a cross, a flame rising from matter, death transcended. All 3 HVH (Hey Vaw Hey) are within the one Y (Yod), the all-encompassing flame, just as the spirit, Shin, igniting the flame is 3 in one, “I and the father are one”, as above so below.

The rest I will leave for your contemplation.

For there to be a second birth there must be a death.

Happy Easter, love one another in this Easter of the changing.
