Nomen invictum Sol Mithra... Soli Omnipotenti Mithrae.

Curiously, December 25 is the Solstitial Feast of the one born from the Petra Genetrix or Brute Stone. Nomen invictum Sol Mithra... Soli Omnipotenti Mithrae.
It is worth emphasizing that it is personified in its mysteries subtly, arduous processes of ascension of the soul through the Mithraic ladder or 7 steps towards the 7 celestial zodiacal spheres.
(Pike;7,851)
The initiations in the Light and Solar Mysteries of Mithra, then resemble the representative model on a microcosmic scale of endless complementary duality and, eternally... Antagonistic. Manifest macrocosmic duality between two cyclical universal forces in infinite opposition.
It is the ontological duality and coincidentia oppositorum cosmological ambivalent and changing.
"the two, Mithra and Varuna"; and ancient couple, as evidenced, before our era and far from India, their presence, also in double dual ...".
(Georges Dumezil, Myth and Epic, 1968)
Transcendent in the reception potential of the universal Macrocosmic fluid of Xvarenah =(Xvarr, Xvarenah), embodied as a powerful seminal liquid or solar fire (Blood of the Bull) of hidden soteriological purpose.
Mithra is interested in the earthly by that which is close to man and his theurgic contracts. His sympathetic and theurgical magic "breaks" "knots" and also, removes obstacles.
It facilitates alliances and treaties since it is its own internal nature that of a friendly, benevolous, reassuring and truly progressive 'being' according to Dumezil. In the power of the Mithraic scorpion resides "the spiritual power" -(Ananda Coomaraswamy)-, deposited and captured in that precise cosmological moment of renewal in "the moment" cyclic taurotesticular to rescue and recover the unity lost through the astrological force of the scorpion.
Masterfully expressed in a beautiful and rich iconographic trajectory reflected and immersed in the eschatological teaching or astrosexual initiatory entheos of Mithra when learning to "kill" the Celestial Bull.
"The Xvarr of God is simply his semen," says Jacques Duchesne-Guillemin.
To kill the Celestial Bull is a birth and death as a universal renovatio and Supreme Power!
Taurus rules the throat and neck.
The sacred sword of Mithra (Orion) enters the neck of Taurus powerfully!
Symbolically from here is born the solar astronomical liturgical drama with multiple and complicated scenes in 'acting' stages within the grotesque grotesque.
Mithra distributes blessings by bestowing fruitfulness.
It clearly points to the regeneration of the stone.
Dispensing sunlight grants health and vigor.
Therefore, it protects the initiated.
We must learn to SEE = mantis, with the EYE of Mithra.
"The divine revelation may be received in the form of myth(muthos).
Such a myth is to be used properly, because its surface is only a "VEIL" or "SCREEN"(parapetasma), behind which another, metaphysical truth lies awaiting its inspired hermeneus".
(Orpheus and the Roots of Platonism, Algis Uzdavinys, p.16)
If we do not go through ecstasy and assimilate tradition through rigorous and initiatory stages = (kata ten aporreheton theorian), in planetary forms of descent and ascension; we cannot receive in just property the sacred Phrygian Cap.
The blood of the Celestial Bull is also, equinoctial solstitial seed of the Life of the Cosmos.
And, at the same time, River of Fire.
The Mysteries of the god Mithra are ancient. His name in Vedic-Mithra, Avestan-Mithra, Old Persian-Mithrist or Mehr, Myhr, Myer, Mihr, Mher.
Resulting in etymology related and associated with agreements, contracts, common agreements and alliances.
"Mithras is a very old Indo-Iranian deity, attested from the Bronze Age onward and worshiped wherever Iranian tradition came to dominate. His name means "the middle on in the sense of "treaty," "promise of allegiance."
(W.Burkert, Ancient Mystery Cults, pp.6,7)
Its connotations are varied and associated with the treaties and promises of the alliances or, the Mitrá. For this reason, linguistic evidence of origin is present in the Avéstico-one of the oldest languages of the Indo-European family-, in Zend and in the old Bactrian of western Iran.
Both the Vedic Mithra and the Iranian Can be associated with the Light as a potent Solar divinity.
Consequently, in Vedic Mitrah would turn out to be "friend" "friendship" and, in late Sanskrit it can then mean "friend". Similarly, in new Persian "Mehr" is love and friendship.
(Encyclopedia Iranica)
Mitrá is a Solar Ariana Deity communing with the most dignified personification and deification of the concept of Alliance or Contract.
In this historical context and in certain astronomical classifications and interpretations, it is associated with the planet Venus as a morning or night star.
On the other hand, Zoroastrian sources use the Mihr root, already understood as a firm and inescapable contract and promise.
"There are quite a number of close agreements in the vocabulary used in connection with the Avestan Mitra and the Vedic Mitra".
(Encyclopedia Iranica)
We can observe that the ancient identification of Mithra and the Sun is first attested by certain Greek sources.
(Strabo, first century AD.c., Geographica, 15.13.732 )
Strabo who states that in his work the Persians call the Sun by the name of Mithra.
On the other hand, it is thus that A.G. Mackey comments: "But the Persians, who first practiced his mysteries, assumed him the god of the sun, and worshipped him as the god of light."
That sunlight is represented in the Templar East as a vital fluid = the solar seminal Xvarr emanating from the force of Mithra as primordial Fire from which all things are born.
(Mackey, Encyclopedia Masonry, p.1015)
Thanks to archaeological and iconographic sources in ancient India, extending to the remote borders of ancient China, the solar divinity of Mithra was known and appreciated.
M. Eliade comments: "Indeed, in ancient India, to the social classes of the Brahmins (priests, sacrificers)... correspond Varuna and Mithra."
For the rest, the prestigious researcher tells us, that already by 1380 BC.c., in a Hittite Treatise, the duality Mitra and Varuna appear.
(Eliade M., Volume I, History of Religious Beliefs, p. 256)
This Vedic Mithra that as part of a very complicated Hindu Pantheon, resurfaces triumphantly as an auxiliary or "friend" of Varuna.
Both as maintainers of the cosmic order, and Mitrá, as the spirit of the firmament is established as the faithful ally of Ahura Mazda.
(Robert Turcan, 82)
It seems beyond doubt that it is the Solar Deity invoked by Artaxerjes II Mnemon= (c.436-358a.c.).
And by Darius III who invokes the Sun Mithra and fire before the battle. Here is presented abundant spiritual iconography, coherent and of precise chronological location. The same defined and geographically indicated and identified going back to ancient Mesopotamia in association with the Solar god Shamas or, to the seventh month of Samas. Millenary iconographic tradition that arrives late in Rome, with the initiatory and labyrinthine astronomical taurabolium, complete and mature.
But it is not only that, it manifests minoico-cretences characteristics in genuine decoration in grottoes and constant recurrent motifs of double axes =(labrys), stylized horns of TORO.
They are horns of CONSECRATION - (Eliade) - and resurrection or change of serpentine skin.
(Dictionary of Religions, M.Eliade, pp. 153-154)
Cult also staged in Grottoes (Kamares, Psykhro), similar to that carried out in the Mithraea or Mitreo of the port of Ostia, in Italy.
Previous evidence of the philosophy and soteriology of the cult (Turcan 1975) or initiatory work in caves, can be found in the extraordinary mural painting of the cave of Doktar-e-Noservan in Afghanistan. Therefore, something as early as the 7th century BC.C., this according to Grenet, 2003.
Or, even in clear direct association with the astrological phenomenon of the arrival of the sun in Aries and with the authentic celebration of the festival of the sun = (Biruni, Atar al-Bakiya).
Later Mithraic mysteries are associated with initiatory 7 degrees and are akin to certain astrological and astronomical correspondences.
"Mithras, says Porphyr, presides over the Equinoxes, seated on a Bull... The equinoxes were the gates through which souls passed to and fro, between the hemisphere of light and that or darkness".
(A. Pike, Morals and Dogma, p. 413)

HERMETIC PRINCIPLES OF ASCENSION = Scala Philosophorum Víctor. Arturo. Cabello. Reyes. 'And he had a dream: He saw a ladder that was resting on the ground, and its end touched the sky. Angels of God ascended and descended through it'. (Genesis 28:12) Certainly, it is the only Biblical mention of a staircase where the Hebrew term of sul-lam is used precisely, in clear reference to the vision that Jacob manages to contemplate in dreams when stopping on his pilgrimage from Beer-sheba to Haran. Beautiful and significant is the vision of Bethel that manifests itself in an ancient sacred place. Sacred and productive place, for many ancient peoples, that for many centuries before this important vision was known by the Canaanites, with the powerful name of Luz=Light. (Genesis 28:19) Significantly, the place where Abraham had camped some time ago. (Genesis 28: 16-19; 35: 6) THE LADDER of Hermes, in its two basic modalities, the spiral and the straight, is unified with the fundamental ...
