Based on the
Nine Faces of Christ by Eugene E. Whitworth, I received this expanded
version from Thoth, which includes symbolic relationship with the body of
the scarab.
In its
most ancient and sacred interpretation, the scarab represents the nine
subtle bodies of man:
1) the
Ren, or vibrational name identifying the DNA codes
of the individual’s physical body, which is located symbolically at the
mouth of the scarab.
2) the
Khat, being the second of the three physical
bodies. It carries the charge for and incorporates within it, the entropic
matter of the flesh. On the scarab this is located symbolically at the
center of its ‘belly’.
3) the
Ka, which is the etheric double of the physical
body. This is an incorporeal duplicate of the corporeal form, which can
emulate that form in body, mind and emotions, yet it can also anticipate the
evolutionary path of the body, drawing it into a greater revolution upon the
spiral of Light-incorporated matter. This movement is nevertheless limited
to the willingness of the whole spiritual entity to make that evolutionary
leap. The circumference of the scarab, defined by its folded legs,
represents the Ka.
4) the
Ab, which is the first of the three
emotional-mental bodies, is the Mind at the center of the Heart. . It is the
‘Eye of the Lion’, where the Beast (lower mind-emotion) meets the Royal Sun
(heart-mind). This ‘Sacred Heart’ of Spiritualized Intelligence is to be
found at the point on the back of the scarab, where the two wings come
together, forming a triangle in-between the closed wings.
5) the
Ba is the ‘Soul of the Heart’. This is the aspect
of the emotional body that is able to move beyond its own evolutionary form,
thus assisting the Ka to re-create itself within the higher paths of
evolution. The Ba projects through the ‘borderlands’ of the personal
experience and into the realm of impersonal unification with the All. The
wings of the scarab are the Ba-points on this beetle.
6) the
Khaibit, which means ‘shadow’, is the last of the three emotional
bodies. The Khaibit is the ‘Rectifyor’ of the emotions. It discerns and
judges the degrees of dissolution of lesser self and the vivification of
Greater Self. It can be harsh on the lower emotions, but is a guardian of
the Balance of Maat (the Egyptian archetype of Justice) within the nine-fold
human experience. It is through the Khaibit that the Lords of Karma govern
over the soul. The eyes of the scarab hold the power of Khaibit.
7) Sekem
is the Vital power contained within the three spiritual bodies. It is the
vitality of the human experience in its process of identifying and moving
towards supernal ecstasy. It is not the supernal itself, but that which
registers the existence of the supernal into the physical-emotional
bodies. Thus to the ancients of Lemuria and Atlantis, it was known as the
‘Proclaimer’. The Egyptian archetype ‘Sekhmet’ derives her name from this
vital body. The activity of the ‘humming’ beat of the scarab wings
personifies the Sekem (whereas with the ‘Ba’, it is the wings outstretched
and ready for flight).
8) the
Sahu is the Spiritual Body created from the ‘Words
of Power’. It is built through conscious invocation and in its lesser form
is strongly based in personal self-identity; yet in its greater presence is
orchestrated by planetary and universal service to the Light. It is the Sahu
that was utilized and called upon to create archetypes in the Temples of
Old. Through the Sahu, so the soul may unify its being with the hierarchies
of Masters, Angels, and other Superior, Radiant Intelligences. The face is
the region on the scarab that symbolizes the Sahu, for it is on the human
face that the Light Programs of the Higher Heaven (the
Metatronic
realm) are encoded into the human form.
9) the
Kuhu is the Spiritual Soul. This is the ‘Radiant
Garment’, or Christed Self that contains the Language of Light necessary to
lift the soul to an exalted state within the Higher Heaven of Metatron. It
is immortal. We find the Kuhu upon the back of the scarab, revealed only
after the wings have parted and are raised to the sky. It is the ‘Lakta
Chakti’ of the Hunoras, a tribe of peoples in what is now India,
contemporary with the latter era of Atlantis. The Lakta Chakti is the Light
which burns from the center of the ‘atoma’ or central sun of the body in a
nova, transforming the physical form into a radiant expression of the
Divine. We could also call this dynamic of the parting of the wings to
reveal the Kuhu, as the parting of the veil to reveal the Holy of Holies in
the Temple of Solomon, or the rolling away of the stone on the tomb of
Christ.
