Occult Cosmology

The 12 Seed Thoughts and unique into a common ground for a shared experience of meaning by definition. It works from the bottom up. We assume that different words ‘mean’ different things to different people and the more distinctions we make the more words we need. We focus on meaning and have lost the significance of language. For a language to be truly sacred it must be synthetic and by this I mean its form, its meaning and its significance must all be part of the communication.

Language as we know it these days is therefore really a part of the form or Third Aspect of communication. It is a means of conveying ideas and thoughtforms which are themselves Third Aspect phenomena.

For the Second and First Aspects that lie behind and within outer language we must look deeper and we must include the level of consciousness and vibrational identity of the person or culture doing the looking.
