The zodiacal sign Scorpio is represented in human material organism by the sexual functions.
The esoteric meaning of sex is based on mathematics, the body being a mathematical fact. Sex in Sanscrit means Six.
“Six days of Creation” simply means that all creation, or formation, from self-existing substance, is by and through the operation of sex principle—the only principle.
Three means male, father, the spirit of the male, the son; this trinity forms or constitutes one pole of Being, Energy or Life—the positive pole.
The negative pole, female trinity; female spirit of mother and daughter.
Thus two threes or trinities produce six or sex, the operation of which is the cause of all manifestation. Those who understand, fully realize the truth of the New Testament statement, “There is no other name under heaven whereby ye may be saved (materialized and sustained) except through Jesus Christ and Him crucified.” By tracing the words Jesus and Crucify (also Christ) to their roots a wonderful world of truth appears to the understanding.{1}
The possibilities of Scorpio people are boundless after they have passed through trials and tribulations, viz.: crucifixion or crossification.
One of the cell-salts of the blood, Calcarea sulphate, is the mineral (“stone”) that especially corresponds to the Scorpio nature. Crude Calcarea sulphate is gypsum or sulphate of lime.
While in crude form, lime is of little value; but add water, and thus transmute it by changing its chemical formation, and plaster of Paris is formed, a substance useful and ornamental. Every person born between October 23 and November 22, should well consider this wonderful alchemical operation of his esoteric stone, and thus realize the possibilities in store for him on his journey to the “Eyrie of the White Eagle.”
Scorpio people are natural magnetic healers, especially after having passed through the waters of adversity, since heat is caused by the union of water and lime.
Scorpio is a water sign, governed by Mars. Mars is “a doer of things,” also fiery at times; therefore, it is well that the Scorpio native take heed lest he sometimes “boil over.”
In Bible alchemy, Scorpio is represented by Simeon, the second son of Jacob. Simeon means “hears and obeys.” In the symbolism of the New Testament, Scorpio corresponds to the disciple Andrew, and means to create or ascend.
The gems are topaz and malachite; astral colors, golden-brown and black.
A break in the molecular chain of the Scorpio salt, caused by a deficiency of that material in the blood, is the primal cause of all the so-called diseases of these people. This disturbance not only causes symptoms called disease in physical functions, but it disturbs the astral fluids and gray matter of brain cells, and thereby changes the operation of mind into inharmony. Sin means to lack or fall short; thus chemical deficiencies in life’s chemistry cause sin.
When man learns to supply his dynamo with the proper dynamics, he will “wash away his sins with the blood of Christ”—blood made with the “White Stone.”
Calcium sulphate should not be taken internally in crude form; in order to be taken up by absorbents of mucous membrane, the lime salt must be triturated, according to the bio-chemic method, up to third or sixth. By this method lime may be rendered as fine as the molecules contained in grain, fruit, or vegetables.
Blood contains three forms of lime: lime and fluorine for Cancer sign; lime and phosphorus for Capricorn sign, and lime and sulphur for Scorpio.
Lime should never be used internally below the third decimal trituration.
THE CHEMISTRY OF SAGITTARIUS
NOVEMBER 22 TO DECEMBER 22.
The mineral or cell-salt of the blood corresponding to Sagittarius is Silica.
Synonyms: Silicea, silici oxide, white pebble or common quartz. Chemical abbreviation, Si. Made by fusing crude silica with carbonate of soda; dissolve the residue, filter and precipitate by hydrochloric acid.
This product must be triturated as per biochemic process before using internally.
This salt is the surgeon of the human organism. Silica is found in the hair, skin, nails, periosteum, the membrane covering and protecting the bone, the nerve sheath, called neurilemma, and a trace is found in bone tissue. The surgical qualities of silica lie in the fact that its particles are sharp cornered. A piece of quartz is a sample of the finer particles. Reduce silica to an impalpable powder and the microscope reveals the fact that the molecules are still pointed and jagged like a large piece of quartz rock. In all cases where it becomes necessary that decaying organic matter be discharged from any part of the body by the process of suppuration, these sharp pointed particles are pushed forward by the marvelous intelligence that operates without ceasing, day and night in the wondrous human Beth, and like a lancet cut a passage to the surface for the discharge of pus. Nowhere in all the records of physiology or biological research can anything be found more wonderful than the chemical and mechanical operation of this Divine artisan.
The bone covering is made strong and firm by silica. In cases of boils or carbuncle, the biochemist loses no time searching for “anthrax bacilli” or germs, nor does he experiment with imaginary germ-killing serum; he simply furnishes nature with tools with which the necessary work may be accomplished.
The Centaur of mythology is known in the “Circle of Beasts that worship before the Lord (Sun) day and night,” as Sagittarius, the Archer, with drawn bow. Arrow heads are composed of flint, decarbonized white pebble or quartz. Thus we see why Silica is the special birth salt of all born in the Sagittarius sign. Silica gives the glossy finish to hair and nails. A stalk of corn or straw of wheat, oats or barley will not stand upright unless it contains this mineral.
Sagittarius people are generally swift and strong; and they are prophetic—look deeply into the future and hit the mark like the archer. A noted astrologer once said: “Never lay a wager with one born with the Sun in Sagittarius or with Sagittarius rising in the east lest you lose your wealth.”
The Sagittarius native is very successful in thought transference. He (or she) can concentrate on a brain, miles distant, and so vibrate the aerial wires that fill space that the molecular intelligence of those finely attuned to Nature’s harmonies may read the message.
Governing planet, Jupiter.
Gems, carbuncle, diamond and turquoise.
The astral colors are gold, red and green.
Sagittarius is a fire sign and is represented in Bible alchemy by Levi, the third son of Jacob, meaning “joined or associated.”
In the symbolism of the New Testament, Sagittarius corresponds to the disciple James, son of Alpheus.

The Chicago Evening Post, Wednesday, August 19, 1914, in commenting on “Signs of Wrath and Portents from the Heavens,” says among other things: “And in England today are men with the modern scientific mind who say that we cannot disregard utterly the idea that the movements of the heavenly bodies have their effect upon men.”
CAPRICORN: THE GOAT OF THE ZODIAC
DECEMBER 22 TO JANUARY 21.
Circle means sacrifice, according to the Kabbala, the straight line bending to form a circle.
Thus we find twelve zodiacal signs sacrificing to the Sun, symbolized by the devotion and sacrificing of the twelve disciples of Jesus.
Twelve months’ sacrifice for a solar year.
Twelve functions of man’s body sacrifice for the temple, Beth or “Church of God”—the
