THE CREATION STORY:
The 6 days of creation refers to the creation of our planet. It refers to the transmutation of the planetary spirit into physical matter. AND, at the same time, it is also the story of the transmutation of matter back into spirit. Evening and morning signify the 2 halves of the Polar Day/Cycle. The principles of Fire, Water, Air and Earth are played out here.
Day 1 = Fire dominates the first ½ of the first Polar Day. When the surface of Earth begins to cool, there is condensation = water. In the second ½ of the cycle there is a constant conflict between fire and water.
Day 2 = with the constant conflict between fire and water, gaseous elements began to form = atmosphere = air. Much volcanic action took place, mountain ranges rose and fell, and ocean beds constantly shifted.
Day 3 = The Great mineral wave commenced and the spirit atoms of future egos became incarnate in dense matter, namely in rocks and minerals. Mountains, valleys, islands and continents were formed. Now, for the first time, seas and oceans occupied their proper beds. At the close of this 3rd Polar Day, the evolution of the astral, chemical and mineral waves have prepared Earth for the first vegetable form of life.
Day 4 = The vegetable tide-wave reaches our planet and produce the first rudimental forms of vegetable life which develop in rude and imperfect form as the earth upon which they grow. As time progresses, so does the vegetable kingdom; each age giving more perfect form.
Day 5 = The animal life wave now sets in. Race after race appear, running its course and becoming extinct, giving way to more complete organisms.
Day 6 = The preceding 5 waves of the evolution of matter have prepared Earth for Nature’s grandest climax – the evolution of the human form. The first 3 “races” of man were still spirit experiencing involution and are known to us as the Golden, Silver and Copper Ages. The 4th race of man, known as the Iron Age, is when matter and spirit met and formed the first real physical man of the human race. The lowest point in the arc of spiritual involution impinges on the highest arc of material evolution and forms the origin of man. The life impulse begins to ebb and slowly quits and our Earth, for the first time, enjoys rest. We are now in the “day of rest.”

Spirit = THE ALL; the Infinite Living Mind. Spirit is the invisible, moveable, ever active
positive principle in motion.
Matter = is solidified spirit. It is the passive of negative principle.
Involution = The descent of spirit into matter; the transmutation of spirit into matter.
Evolution = Matter’s ascent/return to Spirit; the transmutation of matter back into spirit.
Note: One Divine Year = 360 Common Years
There are 4 Great Cycles/Ages of “human” evolution.
Golden Age = We were mostly spiritual in nature, very little matter.
= 720 Divine Years = 720 X 360 = 259,200 common years. – Pole Motion = 36 degrees
Silver Age = Less spiritual, more matter.
= 540 Divine Years = 540 X 360 = 194,400 common years - Pole Motion = 27 degrees
Copper Age = Ever less spiritual and more and more matter
= 360 Divine Years = 360 X 360 = 129,600 common years - Pole Motion = 18 degrees
Iron Age = Spirit is now in the dense, barbarial age/state of its involution (it is
now mostly matter), and became more and more gross until it reached the
very lowest point of the Iron Age and then began the evolution of matter back
to Spirit.
= 180 Divine Years = 180 X 360 = 64,800 common years - Pole Motion = 9 degrees
Total common years = 648,000 = 1,800 Divine Years
Total Pole Motion = 90 degrees = ¼ of the entire circle/spiral
Complete orbit of 360 degrees would take 1,800 Divine Years X 4 = 2,592,000 common years = 1 Polar Day
