Spiritual Tradition of the Masters

OPUS ALCHYMICUM (IV) Spiritual Tradition of the Brothers of La Celestial Rose Víctor. A. Cabello. Reyes CR +🌹 In appearance Everything goes towards the One and in Reality Everything is contained in the ONE '' (GOBIN) It is essential to retake the ancient astrological-alchemical spiritual vision and the essential purpose of the Solar Ascension Path. The Millennial Principle of the Celestial Rose, is totally an astrological matter and whose content embodies all the Wisdom and Divine Sophia. Substantially, it is like Light and Abode of the White Celestial Rose. The Divine Power is enclosed in the internal content of the Golden Flowering and is substantively concentrated in the Sacred Fire as an extension of the ONE = Omnia Ab Uno Omnia in Uno Omnia Per Uno. That Potentiality, immanent and transcendent, potentially resides in the ancient Cosmic and Luminous Principle of The Flower of Heaven = Luminis Naturae Bonum finitum. Emanation of the Celeste Dew, that spreads in multiplicity and dispersion among the sensible world. Flower of Fire (Chaldean Oracles), which is divine harmony and unifies the Golden Chain, as an indissoluble bond Emanating from the Kósmos. "And in truth the light that we see is a single continuity, everywhere the same all, so that it is not possible to separate by cutting a part of it or to encompass it with a circle or ever separate it from its Luminous Source." (Iamblichus, On the Egyptian Mysteries, Book I, 9) In the celestial bodies the Solar substance is deposited as a "incorporeal essence of all things." Thus, the Rose is a Celestial Power, and regarding its Powers they are, `` sent here and below and mingling with the generation '' (Iamblico, On The Mysteries, I, 15) The Tradition of the Flower Masters is millenary and Wisdom comes from the rigorous assimilation of the Initiatic process and, from its internal fusion as a true "Flower of the Intellect". (Chaldean Oracles, Pselus Commentary) The Masters of the Fleur de Lis, could communicate directly, with the profound Divine Floral Codes existing within the Golden Chain of the 'Panspermia Rerum' or SOLAR and Floral Seed. This Solar Seed is largely deposited in a special way, in the Formative-Genetic-Geometric Structure of the Initiatic Tradition of the Ancient Arcana Gnosis of the Flower or Fleur de Lis. In it, in the Floral SOLAR Substance, is contained the Universal Seed or Seminal Power of all things = Semina Rerum. Its main objective comes to translate into the wonders of Art Opus Flowery and Constructor. Fluvial Balm of Cosmic Emanation evoked by the psalmist, such as Celestial Dew, Good Oil or Sacred Solar anointing oil. That Panspermia Quadrum Virtute, is Solar FLOWER Seed. Which will be faithfully transmitted by the Master Builders. All this, through the interaction of Stained Glass Art Chromotherapy. Since she is, in herself, Pure Light. The Tradition of the Neoplatonic and Talking Voice of the Chaldean, in his saying and Way of ascension is totally Initiatic since, "the Chaldean guides him through Initiatic science" according to The Oracles-1132a. To achieve this way, the due observance of the Sacred Fire and its transcendent character as the essence or honey of the Rose alchemical substance. Intellect and Will are the two wings of Hermes by the same Emanation and theurgic conversion. By the way: Hinc appellata mysteria: nec mysteria quae non occulta (Heptaplus). The Geometric Rose - for Maier - wore green and the Wise man cuts it ... without pricking himself. Access to the 'Mountain of the Philosophers of the Rose' is forbidden and obstructed by a guardian wall of sophistic errors. This wall or fortress is huge and compact. A medieval castle protector from the desecration of fools and idiots as well as tricksters merchants of knowledge. The 'Fama Fraternitatis' clarifies the matter: "In vain: Our building must remain inaccessible to the impious world." (T. Schweighart, Speculum sophicum Rhodostauricum, 1604) The Florido Master, Theophilus Schweighardt = (Daniel Mogling. 1596-1635), writes what we can consider the fourth Rosicrucian Manifesto: Mirror of Wisdom '= Speculum Sophicum Rhodo-Stauroticum. In its complex as an enigmatic Frontispiece = Temple of the College of the Rosicrucians (1616-1618?). 'Sub Umbra Alarum' = In the shadow of Your Wings = Pansophia or principles of the a-fidelibus-Pansophiae-Studiosis-of the ancestral Brotherhood of the Rose. We must clarify and make it clear; that the Manifests are not the true origin of the Knights of the Rose. They are the Knights of La Rosa for centuries and centuries. Masters of the internal Rose of the Heart, and faithful followers of the Ancient principles of the Arcana Arcanissima. Wisdom or Pistis Sophia-Perennis, already for many centuries before the German 'resurgence' of the early seventeenth century. Let's remember: Resurface! Historical error that is constantly repeated. At the beginning of the 17th century (1604-1606), the Masters of the Rose carefully observed the sky (some are astronomer-astrologers and architects). The constellation of Serpentarius (1604), that of Cignus, and the constant discussions and astronomical allusions, -among them- that two new stars appear, was the subject of extensive discussions on astronomical matters at intellectual levels. We know that Johann Kepler had already announced it in: “De Stella Nova in pede Serpentario” (1606). Something very strange was happening in the sky, which the Masters of the Rose noticed and observed in the study and observation of the Constellation of the Swan (Swan-1602) and the Carrier Serpent in 1604. Dr. Daniel Moegling was in those circles (as a court physician to the Landgrave Philipp Von Hessen); where he could study astronomy, painting and the fields and documentary treatises of knowledge. He knew from his own experience that the Order had particular characteristics as an Invisible Order. Its precept would be: "The Abode of La Rosa Cruz is not a place, but it is everywhere." It is a recurring Totally Invisible Order for idiots and laymen who are only interested in empty titles and praise without content and those who Never look to Heaven. Neither the internal nor the external. He verified that in the zodiacal celestial circles-music of the spheres- they manage to produce certain cyclical impacts on the 'roads' or paths of the Planet that go in a Single String = A 'Monochordium Mundi'. Hermetic Rope and Gold chain that comes from the Sun = 1 of the Tetractys; Tabernacle of God-Psalm 63: 7- (De Harmonia Mundi, Francesco Giorgio). We are currently in some musical octave of that Solar instrument! There it 'goes up and down' with harmonic and inharmonic tones, pauses and '' virulent '' setbacks. (Athanasius Kircher: Musurgia Universalis, 1605) Music-geometry-mathematics, the same thing: intervals, scales and tones prove it. The True Flowery Master is discovered by the Pure Heart, the righteous life. His mirror is Wisdom! The Rose is alchemical, a symbol of the rosary gardens -Rosarium- of the river of roses of the sacred mantle. The treatises are known as Rosales! Magic-cabala-alchemy are the essential components. The Nature of the Celestial Flower dwells in that it is itself Transcendent Fire and Solar Seed = Panspermia Rerum. It was the Message of the Cosmos and the Flowery Masters had already glimpsed it since the 15th and early 16th centuries. It is the Primordial Tradition and millenary Pansophia that the Masters of the Stone Flower refer to legendary times and a remote origin. '' The alchemists sought, precisely, to bring the origins of their science to ancient Egypt. It was the sacred doctrine, revealed by Hermes to his priests '' ... (Marcelin Berthelot, Les origines de l'Alchimie, Paris, 1885) The formal explanation of the profound Hermetic-Alchemical symbology is not a matter of treating in a superficial and '' hackneyed '' way by laymen and fools who are only interested in their scholarly opinion or scholarly documentary. The explanatory notion of the Hermetic and alchemical Art corresponds to the personal and spiritual relationship with the Source of All. For the profane it is a matter of mere curiosity and for the non-profane a personal Duty of; '' search to find '' and '' ask and it will be given to you '' ... Or, '' touch to open ''. The Master Alchemist Florido hides and hides since he lives internally the meaning of the symbol = '' Signatura rerum ''. And, therefore, it is de rigueur to take pleasure in distancing the laymen from explanations at the most hidden and deep levels of the transmission of the ultimate meaning of the content of solar thought. So, it is explained by levels or states of the ladder = 7. Saturn begins and the Sun ends. And, it is expressed through the Neoplatonic Ternary and its symbolic and allegorical expressions of the Golden Chain. '' These ideas were not new with Platon or did they die with him. It is the nature of the philosophical endeavor to borrow and transform the ideas of others and to pass these ideas on others to use and adapt. '' (John F. Finamore, Intro The Golden Chain, by Algis Uzdavinys) The Tradition of the Rose and the Cross is millenary and its rediscovery during the seventeenth century is the faithful representation of the resurgence of the Universal Wisdom or Pansophia of a spiritual nature = Naturphilosophie-, according to the Master of the Flower Paracelsus. And this is incarnated in a cryptic message of high 'Theophrastia Sancta' and '' light of nature ''. He swears before the Rose-Flower in a diligent, faithful and secretive way. The House of the Holy Spirit is the school of formation and protection of the Masters of the Rose as well indicated in the work of Theophilus Schweighart, in Speculum Sophicum Rhodo-Stauroticum of 1618. Even before the Master Juan Trithemius (1462-1516), the solid line of explanation of a secret nature is maintained through the layout. Whether it be in stone or in a book as -subtle- veiled in the art of painting and sculpture. Taking into account this brief explanation, we are going to explain the image of the illustr It is undoubtedly valuable and pedagogically useful to merge the Tradition of Euclid, Pythagoras and Hermes and, all those elements and spiritual currents coming directly from what A.J. Festugiere, rightly calls literary mysteries. "Therefore, perhaps it is not the same" the Flower of the Intellect "and the Flower of All Human Soul; rather, the one is the most uniform of our intellectual life; The Other is the ONE of All the psychic Powers that are polyform; .. Of the two Manifestations of the ONE, Flower of the first of All Our Powers on the one hand, and on the other, Center of the Whole Essence ... '' (Chaldean Oracles, Proclus Commentary) On the other hand, the Tradition of the Millennial Rose plays very docilely between the dialectic of the hidden and the open. Expressed between cyclic revivals of the Eternal Wisdom and, in full agreement with the stages of high planetary astrological content. The Rose is periodically Invisible and Visible according to the stellar cycles and a rigorous internal Sophia and much study of the initiate in stages or degrees of the Alchemical Ladder in which it is found = (1-7). In a profane way, this covert knowledge of the Gnosis Rosae by itself is incomprehensible and leads many to sterile discussions and vain conclusions between schools, teachers and vain tendencies. The attraction for the hidden leads many to the garden of excesses. The Rose is Dew of Heaven (Ro = lat.-Ros = Dew) as Blessed liberating substance = (kabbalah = tikkum-restoration of the world). Through the Divine Theurgy of Opus Magnum and Divine Art = hieratiké techné, the essence of the golden bloom is achieved internally, already within the body of Man = Astrum or Sydus. The Rose of Heaven follows the solar course and the astronomical sky is nourished by immersion in the astrological study of personal Heaven. This human microcosm is linked between the flowery Potentialities of the "Arcanum of the Invisible" whose expression is based on the observation of the world of outer and celestial things. The Master Florido Agrippa, commented on certain "celestial virtues that are reached through" irradiations and influences of the celestial world ". (Enrique Cornelio Agrippa (1486-1533), Occult Philosophy-1531-, Natural Magic I, 41-42) This Florida Tradition of the millenary acquisition of the power of the Rose, is also a powerful spiritual line or esoteric and Hermetic-Qabalistic-Neoplatonic current. '' The documents can there possibly be seen as very early example of the rose (with or without the cross) being used as a king of recognition among people of Hermetic interests '' (Christopher McIntosh, The Rosacrucians, p.55) Through initiatory-theurgic work, the ritual of energy absorption of the dew of Heaven is established, which can often merge with hidden practices of a sexual nature = (rituals of retention, breathing and absorption of internal fluids). The vital substance is collected-Mutus Liber-, on certain astrological dates to be composed of the life and nutrition of the Stone of the Philosophos. That '' Philosopher's Stone '' is extracted from the Dew of Heaven since as a '' Elixir of Life '' it contains virtues inherent to it. It is an alchemical process of reduction to raw material and "vital fluid" that manages to manifest itself following the principle of "as Above is Below". The later and very late Christian Masters of the Flower use their index finger up or down on Huzza Huzza Huzza and Hoscheas as samples of Pax Vobiscum. Subsequently, knowledge is desecrated and profane by misinterpreting the aqueous substance of life in pseudo-tantric practices and distorting the sacred among unsuspected contents of the potentialities of the Brute Stone. This Philosophers' Stone is also a celestial-spiritual substance that manages to bring metals to perfection through 12 Zodiacal Gates. (Sir George Ripley, The Twelve Gates of the Alchemy). The Florido Master Juan Pontano, understood that the 'Sophic Fire' was reached by practical means of '' erring and trying '' and whose substance of Lapis Philosophorum was; A watery, liquid, igneous and terrestrial produced by means of the '' Secret Fire ''. Since the 12th century, Maestro Florido Artefio comments on the spirit or essence that nourishes and sublimates in an ascending way the corporal and spiritual composition of the nature of the body. He is Ignis-Water and Universal Menstruum or penetrating compound that Nourishes The Flower. '' This could be interpreted as meaning that the rose of perfection can only be plucked when mastery of the sexual force has been attained. '' (McIntosh, p.p. 80,81) '' If anything of the kind did exist in Europe it would account for the extreme care with which alchemical secrets were guarded from the Profane- for the use of sex in this way would have been regarded with almost universal abhorrence in Europe until very recent times '' (McIntosh, p.80-81) In the hidden nature of the human body, the stars deposit the contents of the 7 Elements or Phases of Opus as a process of obtaining the whitening of the Red Rose in its internal fixation in the Flowery Heart of the Initiate. The Honey of the Bee is collected for its 'smell', and this since the bees are attracted by the celestial-solar-powers contained in the flowery and spermatic essences. It is a Millennial Rose and Cleste that according to the Flowery Master Michael Maier: '' Whoever wants to go to the philosophical Rose Garden without having the Key does like the Man who wants to walk without feet '' and is a 'Rose that wears green 'which, the wise man cuts it without pricking. (Ros = dew in Lat). (Michael Maier, Atalanta fugiens, Oppenheim, 1618) Abraham Eleazar, comments on the birth of the Red Roses similar to '' the blood of the Elder or of Our Secret Gold. (Abraham Eleazar, Very Old Alchemy Treatise, Leipzig, 1700) Before the German resurgence of the philosophical-floral content, the True Teachers of the Flower already existed very cautious and secret and with much diligence as Gold Chain, because, they have never disappeared, they are only stealthily hidden from the profane view. '' The '' Mercurial slitter '' is '' our subject ''. From this single root the roses sprout as the highest Good. The White Rose is the lunar '' Philosophical Tincture '', the Red Rose the Solar '' Metallic Tincture ''. The Mysterious "Blue Rose" in the Center is here called "FLOWER OF WISDOM". (Hyeronymus Reussner, Pandora, Basel, 1582) The Masters of La Rosa are astrologers with a deep respect for this science along with cosmology and spiritual medicine and in constant Prayer. "Prayers and Sacrifices sweeten souls." (Papyrus Derveni, VI-first line) The celestial observation of the circle = (gr.kírkos- circle and zodiakos -Zoion = animal = circle of animals), carries the entelechy of the internal golden flowering process but; all this following the rhythm and pattern of the Kosmos. Paracelsus confirms: '' The Course of Heaven indicates the course and regime of Fire in the alchemical Athanor '' (Paragranum) The inner Heaven follows this celestial regime identifying the organs and areas of the body that need immediate attention for their growth and physical-psychic maintenance = astral corpus and to resume the solarization of the astrophysiological structure of Flowering. A Flower Master is an alchemist, healer, and astrologer but; always Philosopher and 'spagyrus' of the Arcanum. The Flower of Heaven contains in itself the Arché = Arké and Archeus as a volatile and mercurial Spirit. The opus alchymicum is a Way of Life or, of theurgical-ritual action with a high content of solar substance, such as Opus Divinum and Ylastrum = matter and star deposited in the very essence of the personal and internal fire flower. 1604 is a real and significant astronomical phenomenon, the one that Tycho Brahe, called the "Pink Comet" and that the wise Arab astrologer Abu Ma'shar, comments in his chronological system derived from Indian sources and identified as one of the ten types of recurring comets. (Kevin Van Bladel, The Arabic Hermes, pp116-147-157) Let us remember that Pliny had already identified The Rose of Heaven and the Harran sages knew first hand the astro-celestial recurrence of the Rose. Both the Lion and the Rose are astronomical motifs assimilated through the pansophia of a perennial philosophy and Sophia as Summum bonum and Arcana Arcanissima. The Rosicrucian Manifests are very late -although some circulated since 1611-, and the wisdom contained in them is christo-cabalistic-theurgic. It is already known and practiced in medieval monks' convents, in private chapels or, in very limited and select groups of initiates (Three). The Confession appears in March 1615 edited by Wilhelm Wessel in Kassel and we can affirm that there are already references to the Flower and the Cross from before the 14th century. This later version of the Florida Wisdom is the one defended by the Florid Master Michael Maier (Symbola Aurea Mensae (1617) and Themis Aurea (1618); it was confused and misinterpreted as a defense of the physical Rosicrucians and not understood as coming from a powerful and millennial Hermetic-Kabbalistic and alchemical permanent spiritual current.
