Magnus Opus

CHAPTER 1

The objective of the Great Work is to transmute, to transform the Moon into the Sun.  The Moon is the Soul.  The Sun is the Immolated Lamb.  When the Lamb enters the Soul, He is transformed into Her, and She is transformed into Him.  From this marvelous symbiosis comes that which our dearly beloved Jesus Christ so rightly called the Son of Man.

The “Magnus Opus” has twenty-two fundamental keys.

The sexual force comes from the Third Logos.  The Third Logos is the Holy Spirit.

The Animal-Man makes the energy of the Third Logos flow “downward” and “outward”.  The Angel-Man, by means of the “Magnus Opus” makes the energy of the Third Logos return “inward” and “upward”.  This is how the Angel-Man becomes a creator in other higher levels of consciousness.  First, he becomes a creator in the Astral Plane, then in the Mental, and afterwards in the Higher Worlds of Pure Spirit.

The laboratory of the Third Logos is our sexual organs themselves.  The ascending flow of the Sacred Fire is the result of sexual transmutation, and this sexual transmutation has twenty-two Fundamental Arcana.  Here we have the twenty-two Greater Arcana of the Tarot:

Arcanum 1 – The Magician:  This Arcanum represents man.  It is the masculine principle.

Arcanum 2 - The Priestess-Wife:  The Magician's Wife.

Arcanum 3 - The Celestial Mother:  The Empress.  The Soul is Christified by means of the Arcanum A.Z.F.
