"The Woman clothed with the Sun" is presented in a new aspect under this interpretation; she herself being the center, the Woman; and the sphere, or clothing, encircling her, being the light of that Divine Companionship, protecting, ensphering, while she reveals the Light of Earth.

"The moon beneath her feet" refers to the fact that the lunar periods or smaller cycles, and each lesser light - Her Twelve Angels or Messengers serving Her - bore all that relates to birth and re-birth to the Earth, subject to this Divine Mother. For whensoever the Madonna of the Four Kingdoms declares Her presence and Her power on the Earth, all so-called "natural laws" are superseded by the Power of Four Greater Truths; and these Four Greater Truths enabled those who possessed them to have power over the Earth, the Air, Fire and Water; and their corresponding symbols in the states of human life.

The cardinal Principles which these represented, corresponded to all the elements known to the Ancients; and those elements were solvents of all the combinations of life; even as the Primal element - The First Truth - was the solution of the universe in the first combination of substance; so the Four accredited elements: the Earth and all its formations; the Air and all its infusing elements; Fire and its power as a disintegrating and separating solvent; Water, - next to Fire the great solvent and sometimes greater than fire, also - the Primal Genetrix of physical life. Thus these Four - at the command of the Mother of the Sacred Mountain, or the City of the Sacred Mountain - revealed in the external Kingdom, what the Four Great Truths revealed in the Kingdom of the Spirit.

These Four Truths - with their Primal meaning - will more and more dawn upon you; not by statements in terms, or words - since there are no terms that can fully express their meaning, but belonging unto your souls they will be more and more perceived. So you will understand that Two of them - the Two that are One - are included in this symbol of the four; and the other Two are included in the symbol of that which is revealed and declared (the dual Child), thus in the unity - not the dispersion - of all thoughts must be found the expression of these Truths. But they relate to the Soul - not to the body - they relate to the innermost - not to the external - but their symbols were always expressed in that which was revealed in the Four Principles of Nature.
