Images of Occult Seals and Columns

SEAL V represents a higher stage of human development, which will occur when the earth has united with the sun again and man will no longer work merely with the forces of the earth, but with the forces of the sun. The “Woman who gives birth to the sun” refers to this future human being. Certain forces of a lower nature, which live in man and prevent him from fully developing his higher spirituality, will then have been expelled from him. These forces are represented in the seal, on the one hand, by the beast with the “seven heads and ten horns” and, on the other, by the moon at the feet of the solar man. For spiritual science, the moon is the center of certain lower forces that still work in the human being today and that the man of the future will subjugate.
