The priestly myth of the previous sign has no connection with reality.
The mature psyche will cross the threshold and enter a new life with Capricorn, where the blessed
Shabatai is alive.
With this, we re-enter the Zodiac through its fourth door,
and in four steps complete the twelve steps around the Zodiac, back to Hay and Toleh.
Superficially, we can accomplish this by reading the formative letters in order: Ayn (70) forming Saturn opens
every possbility: Tsadde (90) forming Aquarius destroys and builds structures: Qof (100) forming Pisces gives
birth to the perfected man.
Only adequately evolved psyches can enter these signs because Shabatai living in Ghedi, is none other
than the "sanctification of the Seventh Day," a symbol whose realisation, considering the average state of human
consciousness, is very far away.

The priestly myth of the previous sign is the illusion of material perfection found in
Qoshet/Sagittarius, formed
("almost ironically") by the repetitive female energy of Sammekh/60. We have seen that
the zodiac describes a two-way flow of energy, in both an evolutionary (counter-clockwise,
the months/signs through the year, building up of structures) and an involutionary (clockwise, precessional, backwards
through the signs, de-conditioning) direction.
The "Third Door" is the evolution of material energy from Leo/Arieh, where its seed is formed, to Qoshet/Sagittarius,
where its form is perfected. To enter the Fourth Door, the psyche must die to itself to be
spiritually reborn in Ghedi/Capricorn, where the body of Shabatai is alive.
Capricorn and the spiritual birth in Ghedi represent the evolutionary goal of the human psyche,
having evolved beyond the religions and ideologies of Sagittarius, and died to itself.
In an involutionary direction, Ghedi is the goal of human society, two thousand years in the future,
as we stand at the threshold of the Age of Aquarius, which will require the dissolution of all
obsolete and out-of-date structures hindering human development.
The last three and first signs of the zodiac are all simple structures which describe organic life in states which do
not "present obstacles" to the evolution of the psyche. After entering the Fourth Door, the
male (Qof/Pisces) and female (Tsadde/Aquarius) energies of the
Self are both realized, and
Life is perpetually new in Toleh/Aries.
