The twelve cosmic rays of the Zodiac are configured into a trinity with four rays at each point. The Cardinal signs are Aries, Libra, Cancer and Capricorn. Each Cardinal sign begins a solstice or equinox that initiate the seasons. The word "cardinal" refers to first, prime or principal, and it originates from "something on which other things hinge". The four Fixed signs are Leo, Aquarius, Scorpio and Taurus, and they each come in the middle of the seasons. "Fixed" denotes binding and fastening, just like the part ligaments play in our bodies for movement. The word "ligament" iz akin to the true core meaning of the word "religion". The Mutable signs Sagittarius, Gemini, Pisces and Virgo come at the end of each season revealing the changeable forces. Each of the twelve cosmic rays iz assigned one of the Divine Architect’s forces--fire, air, water or earth. The above description creates the foundation to this thought: the stars that bring the rain.

Now for the three homophonic words that depict the twelve rays of Mazzaroth in its cosmic triad. The Cardinal point of the triad iz reign, which can be found in the word "sovereign". Sovereign means prime. "S-over-reign" denotes the seven levels of being reigning over this world. The whole universe iz ultimately the Empire of the Sun, and Earth’s population iz contained in this Empire. The word "empire" can be defined as absolute sovereign dominion. Here, "absolute" means in all light and dominion speaks of a dome, a sphere of influence. All hinges on the Creator’s absolute sovereign dominion. This Law iz unchangeable.

The second word in our triad iz "rein" and relates to the Fixed signs. We see this word in reindeer during the Christmas holiday season in relation to Saint Nicholas. Reins are lines of force analogous to ligaments which can harness power and direct it, like when used with horses. In the biblical Book of Job we see these ligaments in action with the loosening of the bands of Orion and the binding of the sweet influences of the Pleiades.

The third point of the triad iz "rain" which correlates to the Mutable forces. It must be remembered that it can rain fire as well as water. Each of these forces can change and create change in various ways.

There iz an ancient legend thousands of years old that tells of a time when Earth’s inhabitants knew perfect peace in heart and mind. During this era our solar system was moving through a different part of the cosmos. In the story of the lost continent of Mu in the South Pacific there was a constellation of stars, known today as the Southern Cross. When this group of stars passed over Mu at a specific angle each year it brought the rains for the gardens. The shape of this constellation inspired the letter T. On Mu it was pronounced Tau (tah-oo).

The letter T iz one of the oldest symbols known to humanity and comes from this legend. The Greeks have carried this symbol forward and have made it the nineteenth letter in their alphabet. The letter T heads the word "Tree" and can be seen as a tree. This T also centers the word "altar". The vertical line holding up the horizontal line reveals the structure of the T, as well as the basic design of most altars--elevated structures. The "Tau" heads the Zodiac constellation Taurus, the Fixed earth sign vibration of Mazzaroth. The brightest star in the constellation of Taurus iz Alderbaran, which in Arabic means Follower of the Pleiades--the seven sisters, the seven levels of being. The term "Tao" originates from "Tau". "Tau-ha" means the stars that bring the rain, conveying new life with their waters. "Tau" iz synonymous with the word "emersion". Thus, the T iz a true symbol of the Tree of Life.

The deer iz an ancient symbol for the advent of Man (male and female) on to the surface of Earth. Using this information we can uncover the true meaning of Saint Nicholas and the connection to Mazzaroth. Saint Nicholas iz white Light, or the Cardinal force, that reigns over Christmas. The master Light within each person (Saint Nicholas) iz the unchangeable Cardinal force that all hinges on. The Fixed signs are the reins or the lines of force in rays of Light that harness and direct the reindeer (the outer self). When the loosening and binding of the reins of Love and Truth are in perfect balance, Saint Nicholas and the deer become weightless and move high above the ground. The expression of white Light rains gifts in crystallized forms of Light (atomic structures). Saint Nicholas comes down the chimney (the portal above our heads) and brings the gifts of Light into our homes through the place of fire, the hearth.

The time has come to bring forth the seasons of Mazzaroth so that we can see once again the reign-rein-rain of the Cosmic Ordinances.
