De Luce Stellarum
(Of the Light of the Stars)
T was that most Holy Prophet, thine Uncle, called
upon Earth William ONeill, or Blake, who wrote
for our Understanding these Eleven Sacred Words:
If the Sun and Moon should doubt
Theyd immediately go out.
O my Son, our Work is to shine by Fore and Virtue of our
own Natures without Consciousness or consideration. Now,
notwithstanding
that
our
Radiance
is
constant
and
undimmed, it may be that Clouds gathering about us conceal
our Glory from he Vision of other Stars. These Clouds are
our Thoughts; not hose true Thoughts which are but
conscious Expressions of our Will, such as manifest in our
Poesy, or our Music, or other Flower-Ray of our Life
quintessential. Nay, the Cloud-Thought is born of Division
and of Doubt; for all Thoughts, except hey be creative
emanations, are Witnesses to Conflict within us. Our settled
Relations with the Universe do not disturb our Minds, as, by
Example, our automatic Functions, which speak to us only in
the Sign of Distress. Thus all consideration is Demonstration
of Doubt, and Doubt of Duality, which is the Root of
Choronzon.
