Dear Peter, >> Upon viewing the structure of the Tiphereth temple I am struck by the fact that the zodiac symbols go counter-clockwise as opposed to the clockwise formation that I have seen everywhere else. I know there has got to be a reason for it, I'm just wondering what it is. <<< I did it that way just to confuse *you*! ;-) ;-) ;-) Just kidding, of course. There's a specific reason. Have you ever seen a natal astrological horoscope? The signs are placed in counter-clockwise order because the perspective is geo-centric. In other words, the *sky* moves, not the observer. If you stare at the eastern horizon, the Signs rise and move clockwise across the heavens -- the horizon/observer though, remains stationary. Since much of the work to be done in the exploration of those Temple passageways is about the *Individual's* past incarnations, I used the geo-centric perspective. My best to you, :) Rawn Clark 22 Oct 2003 rawnclark@... rawn@... http://www.ABardonCompanion.com http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BardonPraxis http://E.webring.com/hub?ring=arionthebardonwe
