Sun and Moon united in the Tree of Life

The right (sun) - left (moon) structure is unified in the Tree of Life.
“When the being re-enters the state of vision, of which nothing can be said except that "everything is different from reality", he re-enters the Centre of Consciousness where the two souls Castor and Pollux of Tradition, the positive and receptive energies, unite, resulting in the abstraction of the sensible world...”
A. von Heuer - Correspondence 1982.

Sun and Moon united in the Tree of Life (46.5 x 31.5) 1982.
The right (sun) - left (moon) structure is unified in the Tree of Life.
“When the being reintegrates the state of vision, of which nothing can be said except that “everything is different from reality”, he enters the Center of Consciousness where the two souls Castor and Pollux of Tradition, the positive and receptive energies unite, which results in the abstraction of the sensible world...
The left where we are by the effect of the “Fall” and the right which in us also, but forgotten, buried, is guarded by the Cherub with the flaming sword...
In reality, there is no right and left, there is only a Sense which seeks to express itself, and a vehicle more or less capable to translate it...
The noumenal is the right, the phenomenal is the left, “phenomenon” meaning etymologically “that which appears, that which shines like a spark”.
A. Von Heuer - Correspondence 1982.

Above him, the Eagle, symbol of the power of the creative Word.
