The Fire element, energy of the Tree of Man, Secret Fire of the Alchemists or prana of the Orientals, is transferred from the atmosphere to Earth through rainwater. Hydrogen, the first element manifested in matter, is its support. As long as rainwater has not contacted the earth, we say that the Fire it contains is unspecified, or undetermined.
To capture this Fire energy, we will therefore collect rain directly in a glass or Pyrex dish. Do not use a dish made of metallic or crystallized matter. These precautions will avoid the presence of a Fire that was determined by contact with a metal or crystal, thereby altering the quality of the energy. As a precautionary measure, we will operate without delay in order to avoid exposure to solar, lunar or electric light. There are no disadvantages in stellar radiation. We will immediately fill nine small glass bottles. Since we can try the experience three times, we will have three bottles per planet. The bottle, of a volume of about 10 cc. (a little more than 1/3 fluid ounce), will be preferably closed with ground glass or plastic lids but under no circumstances with metallic ones. They will be wrapped in three groups of three, in a fabric made of silk or plastic which have a strong electrical insulation, and then stored in the oratory.
Rainwater collected in this manner does not have to undergo decontamination. The Fire it contains has the nature of the Spirit. It is however preferable to collect the rain after it has already fallen abundantly because the dust in suspension in the atmosphere will have been washed down.
CHARGING WITH THE FIRE OF SATURN
- Proceed in April or May.
- Do this work on Saturday morning in the middle of the planetary hour (Figure 17) that follows sunrise, in other words at the Saturn hour.
- Operate in the oratory, under candlelight. It is here the symbol of Unity from which we try to attract the Primordial Energy.
- Place the hourglass vertically.
- Place the three small bottles from the same package in front of you. Open them. - Remain in meditation five to ten minutes facing the “New Tree” (Figure 28) - Seal the three bottles. Put them back in their isolating fabric.
- No one else enters in the oratory except as already explained.
- Renew this operation at least twice, or more, preferably on the following Saturdays in the months of April or May. This repetition reinforces the contribution of energy. These three bottles will contain the Fire-energy now determined by the energy of the Invisible Sun of Saturn. The energy fixed in this manner will be used at the time of the Great Experience.
CHARGING WITH THE FIRE OF THE SUN
- Proceed all year round except, of course, in the days close to the winter solstice when the Fire energies are weakened or occulted by the Sun (Visible) and its electromagnetic aura (Figure 21). It is desirable to operate as close as possible to the summer solstice where this energy is at a maximum level, or in April or May in our case.
- Do the work on Sunday morning in the middle of the planetary hour that follows sunrise, the hour of the Sun.
- Operate in the oratory, under candlelight. - Place the hourglass vertically.
- Place three bottles from a new package in front of you. Open them.
- Remain in meditation five to ten minutes facing the “New Tree”. (Figure 28)
- Just after the present charge, put the three bottles in the solar light, outside, on a balcony or a window sill provided that you can block out all lunar radiation, that you are still in the indicated timeframe and that you can act away from onlookers. This solar exposure will not be done for the three other elements of the Sun (Air, Water, and Earth).
- Repeat the meditation outside.
- Seal the three bottles. Store them in the oratory in their insulating fabric.
months of April or May.
These three bottles will contain the Fire-energy now determined by the energy of the Invisible Sun of the Sun.
CHARGING WITH THE FIRE OF THE MOON
- Proceed in the months of April or May, preferably when the Moon is close to its apogee, as indicated in astrological or astronomical tables.
- Operate in the oratory by candlelight.
- Do this work on Monday morning in the middle of the planetary hour that follows sunrise, also known as the hour of the Moon.
- Place the hourglass vertically.
- Place the three bottles of the last package in front of you. Open them. - Remain five to ten minutes in meditation.
- Seal the three bottles. Pack them back in their insulating fabric.
- Renew this operation twice at least, or more, preferably on the following Mondays in the months of April or May.
These three bottles will contain the Fire-energy now determined by the energy of the Invisible Sun of the Moon, i.e. the Invisible Earth (Figure 24).
