And behind these twelve senses are elemental beings, the servants and helpers of the spirits of form, movement, and wisdom. At present, these elemental beings are still in a kind of childhood stage, but as human beings progress and evolve toward Jupiter, these elemental beings, the messengers of the higher hierarchies, will also evolve; they will one day form the zodiac of Jupiter; they will be the signs of the zodiac of Jupiter after the earth has completed its seven cycles and everything emerges again in a new configuration in the Jupiter state from the Pralaya. Just as what used to work on us on the moon and now stands behind our senses has become the zodiac of the earth.
