13.30 - Phoenix Bird, Resurrection, Re-Creation, Regeneration
The Phoenix bird is symbolic of Russell's Principle of Regeneration:
"Generating Mass seeks higher pressure zones. Degenerating Mass seeks lower pressure zones. Regeneration is effected by Degenerative Impact in inertia, thus reversing sex [polarization/dipole]." [Russell]
"Of this more will be written when further consideration of causes make the effects of those causes more comprehensible.
All male actions are centripetal and all female reactions are centrifugal.
Variance of centripetal or centrifugal force is variation of potential.
Union and reproduction are always governed by sex periodicity in electro-magnetic charge, the order of which will be written down and charted.
Consider, for example, the reproduction of the sound of the human voice echoing in the hills. Sound, like all other forms of energy, is an accumulated potential.
Release this high potential and it immediately expands.
Expansion is radiation.
Radiation is discharge of accumulated potential.
As the sound of the voice, as accumulated potential, radiates into the silence of higher octaves of lower potential, and impacts against the closely integrated high potential of the cliff side, the degenerative discharge is reversed and becomes generative charge.
Expanding lowering potential is reversed to contracting higher potential.
In other words, the sex opposites in the radiating sound waves are forced into closer contact by the impact, so that the wave dimensions which originally produced the sound are restored.
The counterpart of the sound as cause has been produced as a reproduced effect of that cause.
It is not the same sound, it is another sound.
It is a reproduced counterpart, a regenerated reincarnation of the state of motion which originally produced the sound.
That which is true of regeneration by echo is also true of reproduction by radio or any other similar process. All are but the reversal of radiation into regeneration by impact against the inertial planes of higher potentials.
Generation or re-generation is an effect of gravitation. An impact of radiative energy against any lower octave of integration will set up the necessary resistance to the radiative energy to regenerate it into its original form." [Russell, The Universal One, Book 1, Chapter 10]
"Here is shown the Phoenix, which burns in its heart with a fire flame. Sun and Moon rise from the wings of the same bird, while the crown sits on its head. In its claws, it holds the imperial orb and scepter. The enlightened ones explain the Mercurial process: The highest spirit unites the body, and when the water joins the fire flame, the Sun returns to the heart of the bird. Sun and Moon delight in the same nest, and the fire flame glows in their centers, where their cores are purified. In both matters, the unification of the body and spirit is necessary. When the earth is ready, the purified water is born, and the bird's crown returns to the earth, symbolizing the perfected transformation. Water, fire, air, and earth unite in a single form and pure force: this is the first work on earth, and the Son of the Sun is born from it. Explanation thereof: The philosophers state that for this fire to work, there must be the purest fire in their work, namely under the fresh Sun. It should be dried, which binds it; from there, it serves one for drying and the other for moistening. These are philosophical secrets. One shines brightly but has no wings; the latter's sympathy brings forth the magnetic power and binds the earth to water and water to the earth, uniting them. It is solar, though not fiery, the red, the other pale, both must be united. It is the birth of the heavenly Sun and Moon, whose blood must fall together. When the earth is transformed into water, the dry fire begins its work, which is essential for growth and transformation. Canon Ninus: “Though a black raven grows from a noble man, And stands firm before such heat, Haste is not needed here; So many fruits ripen in time.” Explanation thereof: The common saying goes: “If it is possible to make a white dove from a black raven or a white swan from a black one, the philosopher in his Hermetic art will achieve no strange or rare thing, but something easier than expected.” What Noah tried with the raven—that it should be used as a scout to see whether the waters of the flood had dried up—turned out that the raven sank into the water and did not return. This also happens with the philosophical raven in Mercurial water: it drowns and sinks so deep that a white dove can rise, bringing forth the conjunction of the white stone. But the latter, the black one, cannot assist the artist further if it is not kept moist with the humid fire, until the blackness is hidden and the white paradisiacal stone comes forth. When the black turns white, it displays beautiful, plant-like colors, just like a newborn. These intermediate colors emerge between these two extremes. At the same time, the humid fire dominates, and the blackness is gradually removed. When the dry fire begins, the colorful air hues also gradually vanish, and everything must finally turn into white."
