- Love is the law, love under will.
| TETH Atu Number Atu Letter&Translation Attributed Constellation Associated Quotation from Liber AL vel Legis XI ט – Serpent Teth Chamaeleon, Phoenix 57. Invoke me under my stars Love is the law, love under will. It seems that it would have been better to choose a sitting position to depict the attributed Hebrew letter. The serpent is a symbol especially attributed to both the desert and the garden in the Christian tradition. To change its skin color in order to match its environment is an attribute described by the constellation Chamaeleon in the Southern Hemisphere. Chamaeleon lies near the south celestial pole, next to Musca, the fly. It is depicted showing the chameleon sticking out its tongue to catch the fly. Chamaeleon has no legends associated with it, and it contains no bright stars. Being essentially reptile, it is perhaps the oldest of creatures in the memory of the planet and in the archetypal stream of human consciousness. And so it is the evocation of that which comes from the deepest well or abyss of that which we know and that which we have now forgotten. Chamaeleon as depicted in the Uranographia of Johann Bode. Unlike in some representations it is ignoring the fly, Musca, which lies above its head, off the top of this illustration. Bode named and depicted Musca not as a fly but as Apis, the bee, as had Bayer before him. The Phoenix is a constellation representing the mythical bird that supposedly was reborn from its own ashes. Continuing on the theme started above, the snake sheds its skin and like the worm into the butterfly, so this serpent into this bird. Phoenix, the multicoloured bird that ended its life on a funeral pyre, seen in the Uranographia of Johann Bode. The phoenix supposedly resembled a large eagle with scarlet, blue, purple, and gold plumage. Its death and rebirth has been seen as symbolizing the daily rising and setting of the Sun, which suggest to us the Tuat as the Nightside of the Tree-of-Life. All of this then is a symbol of the Dark Night of the Soul as our full indulgence in the Tree-of-Knowledge. |
