The five pointed star Right side up, represents Masculine energy, it represents, spirit ruling over matter…. Spirit Grounded in duality.
The inverted star represents feminine energy. Matter ruling over spirit, Matter grounded in spirituality.
As above so below.
The physical material this universe is made of, is in essence, feminine. Matter=Mother. The conscious phenomenon is Masculine.
The Matter/feminine is a vessel for the Spirit/masculine
the body, and all living things, are vessels with some type of consciousness.
The senses are what create desire, so the bodily senses are what lead us into temptation, the body is made from matter and is inherently female. It comes into existence, and then it decays, Much like the moon, and much like a womans menstruation . It is inherently “evil” on its own… It begets and begets, but always falls away.
This is why eve is considered the fall of man.
Eve = Evil
Eve = begining
Begining means it was created.
It came forth through desire.
Eve represents many thing, as does the inverted star, we mostly associate the inverted star with Evil, and I dont think most people really understand the bible on a psychological level, but that is just because our physicality and our senses create desire with in us, which we have a very difficult time controlling or understanding. which forces us to live in a “fallen” state. Rather, unsatisfied on a deep level.
This is the tale of indulgence. Eating of the apple. The fall. Feeding into temptation. Gaining surface comfort, and not seeing the correlation with the negative in our life has caused us to just seek oblivion. What ever gets your though the day, coffee, a case of soda, perhaps a line of meth. Being abusive to others because we feel justified… dominating and disrespecting others because we feel entitles to superiority.
So while the inverted star repesents these things I want to clarify what evil truly is.
Evil is selfishness, its instant gratification. When you react to this world how ever you want and take what ever you want, you will pay a price.
When you feed into the Sensual desire of eve or your physical body, with out the guidance of Mind, or Adam, then chances are you are taking that which you have not earned. and Payment is due. The universe works that way. Suffering=growth.
There are two ways to suffer.
One, this being the easiest, Is to simply take what you like when you like it, fly off the handle, You live life by a whim, only doing what you absolutely have to when you have to, and doing what you want when ever, having no discipline or drive, and finding “false” peace in worldly pleasures. Impulsive behavior invites and begets suffering. this is “going against gods will” And you will suffer greatly, in mind. You will become even more impulsive, erratic, and insane. You wont have true peace, and you wont be able to accomplish things of worth. The worst of all, the more you feed into the bodies senses in an un healthy way the stronger the urges become and the more difficult to resist, the less you understand and the more blind you become. Before you know it, you eye hole deep in an addiction, a toxic relationship or your just an asshole of a person, and you dont even know, because your mind is so numbed by the constant indulgence and gratification which is not truly gained, that your completely unaware of the insanity you live in. You think its normal to Have suicidal thoughts, you think its normal to be verbally abusive to your most dear ones. You don’t see anything wrong with doing drugs, or what ever your issue may be.
And then there is daily suffering, a choice made, to suffer now, for prospect of a better future. Choosing to hold your anger and instead speak with compassion to try to fix things, Going to work, even showering and making sure you eat the right things. Doing things like Yoga, to relax your body and increase your health, or Meditation to develop a better quality mind, more focus and higher intelligence. Practicing a non violent diet, as not to contribute to the suffering of millions. Growing your own food, Connecting with and helping others find better ways of living. Encouraging and Influencing the people around you for the better. They aren’t exactly exciting things, they aren’t as entertaining as perhaps, going shopping, or playing games, or watching tv, or doing drugs or having sex. A selfish, undisciplined mind, will revolt at the idea of these things. But in the long run, they develop a peace of mind in a person which can not be taken away.
When you make decisions out of pure desire, you don’t weigh the reality of things. You don’t stop to question the ethics or how it effects your mind, body and this world. Every choice we make influences the world we live in. Everyday we choose to smoke cigarettes or make rude remarks or eat something that’s not food for us, we are destroying are world through impulsive desire. Falling into the temptations of the mind.
Not all thoughts are complete, not all thoughts are reality. Certainly not all thoughts are meant to continue on, but its up to us to get rid of the negative impact our minds have on us. Will Power is our TOOL though many of us thing our thoughts are ours, and we are our thoughts. On the contrary, thoughts are choices. And should be chosen wisely.
So in short, The upside down star collectively has been dubbed, evil or what ever because in the internal workings of the mind, the Feminine, Lucifer, Eve, or as we know it, DESIRE which spawns from the SENSES has caused us to chase after a false state of peace, for we lack the presence of mind it takes to prepare for a better future.
Which is why its important that;
As above so below.
Which is why Man unites with woman. Not literally speaking,
but,
when desire and mind come together, and desire guides mind and Mind Guides desire, creation happens.
When desire over powers mind, destruction comes
when mind over powers desire, chaos springs forth.
But when Desire, Marries Mind, A Christ is born in man.
You have to have the best of both worlds.
As above must be so below.
