[Excerpts from the writings of Koresh.]
An eclipse of the sun or moon is the result of the passage of the conjunction of a photoic nucleus with a scotoic nucleus. As both nuclei are circular, in crossing each other the form of the shadow—or cutting off or opening of the circuit (stopping of the current)—cuts off the generation of the light, and the consequence is an eclipse.
An eclipse is nothing more nor less than the opening of the circuit of the great physical magneto-electrical battery.
This operation in the alchemico-organic has its correspondence in the anthropostic (human) conjunctions (openings and closings), by which we have those changes in human progressions and retrogressions dependent upon the coming of the astral and solar men who mark the greater revolutions in all human affairs, when in the end of dispensations, like the termination of the Jewish age, we had the manifestation of that "Bright and Morning Star" (astral nucleus), Jesus the Christ, from whom proceeded the solar photosphere, shining through the apostles and disciples.
ECLIPSES OF THE SUN AND MOON.
One of the principal proofs adduced of the globular form of the astronomical bodies, is the fact that in an eclipse the supposed body passing between the one eclipsed and the sun, forms a circular shadow. This would be positive proof if there could be adduced no other or better reason for the phenomenon. That is, if no other equally cogent reason could be assigned, this might be taken as proof; otherwise it is no proof. The sun transmits its radiations in a circular form, as may be illustrated by the appearance of the rainbow. These radiations strike or touch the concave strata of the earth's circumference as only a circumradiation can do, and must therefore, in a reflex action of those emanations, return to the pivot or center of influx in a circumconvergent form, as they passed out in a circumdivergent form.
Ecliptical phenomena, whatsoever may conspire to effect them, must necessarily conform in contour, in the circumcision, or cutting off, to the circumvergent aspect of the energetic fluxion, whether afferent or efferent in direction. If it can be determined by what processes the circuit is closed and the current generated, it can as readily be determined by what processes the circuit can be opened and the current eclipsed.
