“I saw the four and twenty Cherubim and Seraphim that guard the circle of the sun, the mighty ones who were proclaimed by masters long ago ‘the four and twenty ancient ones.’ “I heard the names of every Cherubim and Seraphim, and learned that every sign in all the Zodiac is ruled by two--a Cherubim and Seraphim. “And then I stood upon the cusp where Ages meet. The Piscean Age had passed; the Aquarian Age had just begun. “I saw the guardian Spirits of the Piscean Age; Ramasa is the Cherubim; Vacabiel is Seraphim. “I saw the guardian Spirits of the Aquarian Age, and Archer is the Cherubim; Sakmaquil is the Seraphim. “These four great spirits of the Triune God stood close together on the cusp, and in the presence of the sacred Three--the God of Might, the God of Wisdom, and the God of Love--the scepter of Domain, of Might, of Wisdom and of Love was there transferred. “I heard the charges of the Triune God; but these I may not now reveal. “I heard the history of the Piscean Age from Piscean Cherubim and Seraphim, and when I took my pen to write Ramasa said: “Not now, my son, not now; but you may write it down for men when men have learned the sacred laws of Brotherhood, of Peace on earth, good-will to every living thing. “And then I heard the Aquarian Cherubim and Seraphim proclaim the Gospel of the coming Age, the age of Wisdom, of the Son of Man. “And when the crown was lifted from the head of Ramasa and placed upon the head of Archer of the Aquarian Age; and when the royal scepter was transferred from Seraphim Vacabiel to Seraphim Sakmaquil there was deep silence in the courts of heaven. “And then the goddess Wisdom spoke, and with her hands outstretched she poured the benedictions of the Holy Breath upon the rulers of Aquarius. “I may not write the words she spoke, but I may tell the Gospel of the coming age that Archer told when he received the crown. “And I may breathe to men the song of praise that Seraphim Sakmaquil sung when she received the royal scepter of the newborn age. “This Gospel I will tell, and I will sing this song in every land, to all the people, tribes and tongues of earth.” 4 _What is Meant by “the Christ,” as the Word is Used in This Book?_ The word Christ is derived from the Greek word Kristos and means anointed. It is identical with the Hebrew word Messiah. The word Christ, per se, does not refer to any particular person; every anointed person is christed. When the definite article “the” is placed before the word christ a definite personality is indicated, and this personality is none other than a member of the Trinity, the Son who had a glory with the Father-Mother before the worlds were formed. According to the teachings of all ancient masters this Son is Love; so the Christ is Love, and Love is God, since God is Love.
