There is one type of energy which can be divided into Electricity or Magetism. Also there is only one substance.(Phylos).
Circulation of Od throughout the Solar system
Rather than starting from starting from physical concepts, and looking at the flow of the purifying Odic force through them, it would probalby be better to flow with the Odic currents.
The journey begins with the source of the stream- the extreme Yin, cool electrical fluid, so in a way the Spirit Land nourishes the Earth.
From another section of the Spirit Land there starts a lighter
fluid ,which is also a ... negative... tidal river, toward the North Pole of
earth, and this is unchangeably electrical.(AJD).
The tendency of a current of water is to flow to the part where greatest speed
exists and from parts where but little is found. so, too, with magnetism. the
positive currents flow to the negative pole. That is the highest, or swiftest
vibration (555PhylosEDR)
Falling is probably a more apt term for the stream as Phylos states.
The `force falls', just like a river marks declivities in its bed by cataracts.
Very far down its course to the cascades of magnetism, electricity, light, heat,
sound, motion- and far off where the bed of this stream becomes nearly level,
exibits those little ripples of material differentiation which are
termed the elements. (465Phylos)
The Sun in abscondito being thus the storehouse of our ittle Cosmos, self-generating
its vital fluid, and ever recieving as much as it gives out; and the visible
Sun only a window cut into the real Solar palace and presence, which reflects,
however, fathfully the interior work.
Thus, there is a regular circulation of the vital fluid througout
our system of which the Sun is the heart- the same as the circulation of the
blood in the human body- druing the manvataric solar period, or life; the Sun
contracting as rhythmically at every return of it, as the human heart does.
Only, instead of performing the round in a second or so, it takes the solar
blood ten of its years to circulate and a whole pear to pass through its auricles
and ventricies, before it washes the lungs and passes thence to the great vens
and arteries of the system.
This, Sicence will not deny, since astromny knows of the fixed cycle
of eleven years when the number of solar spots increases which is due to the
contraction of the Solar Heart. (AJD).
Our Sun is the heart of the Solar World (System) and its brain is hidden
behind the (visible) Sun. Thence, sensation is radiated into every nerve centre
of the great body, and the waves of the life©essence flow into each artery
and vein....The planets are its limbs and pulses...(134Blavat)
Occult philosophy denies that the Sun is a globe in combustion, but defines
it simply as a world, a glowing sphere, the real Sun being hidden behind, and
the visible being only its reflection, its shell. The Nasmyth willow leaves,
mistaken by Sir J. Herschell for "Solar inhabitants", are the reservoirs of
solar vital energy, " the vital electricity that feeds the whole system... The
Sun in abscondito being thus the storehouse of our little Kosmos, self generating
its vital fluid, and ever receiving as much as it gives out," and the visible
Sun only a window cut into the real Solar palace and presence, which reflects,
however, faithfully the interior work.(134)
Thus, there is a regular circulation of the vital fluid throughout our system
of which the Sun is the heart, the same as the circulation of the blood in the
human body during the manvantaric solar period, or life; the Sun contracting
as rhythmically at every return of it, as the human heart does.
Only, instead of performing the round in a second or so, it takes the solar
blood ten of its years ( to circulate ) and a whole year to pass through its
auricles and ventricles, before it washes the lungs and passes thence to the
great veins and arteries of the system.
This, Science will not deny, since astronomy knows of the fixed cycle of eleven
years when the number of solar spots increases which is due to the contraction
of the Solar Heart.(135Blavat)
When the Night Side Forces drop to light, and the light enters a spectroscope,
they will emerge as colours. These correspond to the various spectrum bands
and will emerge as the descent progresses, giving forth the noted lines of the
solar spectrum, as the great `B' line of oxygen, the conspicuous `1474 line',
and the brilliant `H' and `K' violet bands.(517Phylos)
It is by these Night Side currents that the circulation in the Universe
is kept up as blood in a man's arteries. The suns are the systemic hearts.(519Phylos)
The number of sunspots showing an 11 year cycle from the late
1700s to the present.
Sunspot maxima correspond generally to periods of high solar activity.
This activity includes increased solar wind and phenomena like aurorae and magnetic
storms that are correlated with the solar wind, increased flares and prominences,
and increased non-thermal radio and X-ray emission. Conversely, near sunspot
minima the Sun is much quieter with respect to these phenomena. In addition,
as we have seen there are significant differences in the nature of the corona
during periods of active and quiet Sun.
The position of the sun spots on the surface of the sun. Notice that the sun spots start more towards the poles, then more show towards the equator.
Once it reaches the Earth, circulates- refining matter as it turns into magnetic warm fluid and heads back to the Summer Land.
The earth on which we live is a revolving electrical machine, an immense magnetic battery. With a swifness beyond imagination the earth’s electricity streams in great ribbons and winds iself upon its own natural spool at the North, where it is transformed into a more refined motive force-an etherium or celestial magnetism. This is positive and warm to the negative and cold volumes of electricity. Its warm stream, rising high in air and flowing above the South Pole, pulsates onward and upward, outward and inward, until it breaks like a note of immortal melody on the shores of the Summer Land. (AJD)
There is a spiral at the north pole which causes the Aurora Borealis.
....winds itself upon its own natural spool at the north... The north-centre
is an immense helix, an atomosphereically coiled receptable, for the mutidudinous
electrical currents arising from all parts of the globe. The simultaneous and
incessant rush of terrestrially evolved electricity to the great north spiral
centre, results in the instant formation of a never-ceasing sefl-illimunation
vortex. The luminous lightnings evolved by this great battery, and from the
inconceivably rapid motion of the collected electric storms within the polar
vortex, make those wondrous manifestations known as the aurora borealis, which
especially characterize the northern hemisphere. (AJD).
Molten interior
The planets which receive all these currents must return their equivalent. This explains the molten terrene interior of the earth.(520Phylos)
All the phenomena which seem to substantiate the melted
interior condition of the earth do not prove it so in truth. All point to the
return currents, the positive; all exhibit venous currents of our Universe back
to its hearts. Thus nature is true to the great law of duality and reciprocity.(521Phylos)
Aurora Borealis
An old observation made in Sweden by Wilke may also deserve to be recalled to
recollection- that " the appearance and the movements of the northern light
are always PRECEDED by disturbances of the magnetic needle". This, as is
seen agrees most exactly with the Odic phenomena, the latter always occur later
and more tardily than the magnetic and electrical movements complicated with
them, an observable pause always intervening before the commencement of the
side effects. (Reichenbach448)
The human body.
The circulation in the Solar system is compared by many authors to the human
body.
As there is a vital circulation in the human body so there is a circulation of living forces between the spiritual world and the several planets (AJD).
The Yin Yang balance
An equilibrium of Yin and Yang is needed for health.
Empty conditions
Phylos's Night Side-do not confuse this term with the
"Dark Side" of Star wars. It is simply a return of energy path to
the Sun, in the same way that veins conduct blood back to the Heart.
Energy passes down the cascade of vibrations, ending at the atom, then moving
to electrons then upwards inside the atom as it starts upwards in the "night
side". It rides through the physical manifestations supplying Earth with
movement and energy, then it glides back purifying as it does so. It is attracted
to the swiftest moving physical objects, and is cultivated in physical beings
as a crystalizing force- and a purifying force as it is used.
Suns of systems are centres of the Night Side Forces of Nature, are force
and matter of a higher value than those of planets and satellites, just as water
above a cataract is water, truly, but being mobile, flows over and down, developing
energy as it falls.(515Phylos)
It does so. It conveys it into what can be termed the Night side of Nature-
where duality become manifest, cold opposing heat, darkness opposing light,
and where positive polarity opposes negative, all things being antipodal.(470Phylos)
Cold is as much a substantial entity as heat and darkness is as much a substantial entity as light. There is also a septuple prism of black entities in the blackest gloom. (471Phylos)
Force moves not in straight lines but in circles, that is, so as to always return unto itself. If the dynamism operating the Universe acts in circular progression, it follows that an infinity of increase of vibration would be an untenable concept. There must be a point in the circle where extremes meet and run the round again, and this we find between cathodicity and magnetism. As vibration brought substance into the realm of light, so, too, must it carry it out. (67Phylos)
Atitude affecting perception
As the created draws away from its creator, while reacting to its outgoing
impulse, it looks back to its origin and notes its progression, which is its
multiplied realisation of its increasing separation from its Source. The greater
the separativeness, the greater the field (matter) wherein these points appear.
Because the divine element in the created has more points, or in other words,
more things between it and its Source, it is said that more material objects
separate themselves from their Creator. Only when we have looked back at the
things we have sensed (these thought forms of the Creator), do we perceive matter.
When we look forward to reunion with Him, matter disappears as thought and reappears
as spirit.(Phylos)
Magnetism- as the odic energy moves back up through the vibrations it has polarities of Electricity (Yin) and Magnetism (Yang).
Nature in its entirety is externalised.(Phylos)
Magnetism is life- not being- for being is of the Ego purely.
Magnetism is one of the conditions of being, manifesting itself in an active
state of life. (548Phylos)
In other words, the material condition which binds the Ego to matter and
temporarily renders it finite. All that clings to the Ego is magnetism. Hence
life is finite. When we cut loose from magnetism, we are free from condition
and have no life, only the being which is, was and ever shall be. (552Phylos)
The processes of all life are carried on by magnetism. Assimilation of food
and drink, waste excretion, all vital processes whatever. The magnet is in the
cerebellum or back brain, and in the medullary substance of the corporae striatum,
a veritable wound magnet. The force which causes the heart to act, the lungs
to act, maintains body heat, and so on
is enormous; it amounts to many hundreds of thousands of foot pounds per day.
Through occult law nature can be made to parallel this magnet, for the universe
itself moves only because of the current which flows from positive to negative,
from one-half of matter to the other half, continuously.
(282Phylos).
Odic Force and Magnets and Crystals
The ofic force possesses polarity. It appears at the two poles of the magnet
with constantly different properties; at the northward it produces a sensation
of coolness in the feeling as a rule, in the pass downard, and in darkness a
blue and bluish-grey light; the southward pole, on the other hand , a sensation
of tepid warmth, and a red, reddish yelloiw, and reddish-grey light (Reichenbach221).
