Permit me to introduce the lords of Vulcanus, for they are from the kingdom of the
flowers. We do not think of them as being too different in appearance from the physical
flowers of the Earth, even though we must view them with a very high astral
clairvoyance, that is to say with the seership of the higher worlds of spirituality.
They are flowers and then they are not flowers, who can say, for they have the very
manner of the flowers, yet they have the intelligence of the superhuman levels of the
universe.
The UFOs of Mars are floating colours and floating symbols, which have become
detached from their frame of reference. The UFOs of Jupiter are elements of magic which
have lost their perspective and so they float in the open spaces between the worlds,
often to be seen and to be perceived by the gifted, but in reality they are not to be
thought of as the true images of the world from which they have come for they are the
lost elements, seeking some kind of unity and return to their homeland, and if by this
wandering they do something to represent the valuable, it is to let the gifted know
that there is something more wonderful and more substantial than these gypsy wanderers,
which the UFOs are. That is why the monastery does not stress the UFO approach to
reality, for they are merely the fragments which have come off the wall of solid
magical substance and reality, they are the indicators of what is more wonderful and
much more desirable and they are the symbols, themselves, which point the way beyond
the world of the scattered to the world of principles.
Getting back to the Vulcanian culture, it is important to realise that the world
of the flowers is composed of only sixteen magical species, which take their place in
the sequence of nature from the hours of their blooming, or blossoming forth.. This
sense of time is important for we have all along maintained that there is a cosmic
history, now we must maintain that there is a cosmic time which is symbolised by Earth
time in the following way
1. ONE HOUR OF COSMIC TIME IS EQUAL ROUGHLY TO ONE HOUR AND ONE HALF HOUR OF EARTH
TIME.
2. WHILE TIME ON THE EARTH IS MEASURED-BY MEANS OF PERIODS OF TWENTY FOUR HOURS,
COSMIC TIME IS MEASURED BY MEANS OF SIXTEEN HOURS TO A PERIOD.
3. AN EARTH HOUR IS COMPOSED OF MINUTE UNITS OF SIXTY PARTS DURATION EACH FOR AN
HOUR.
The brow of the head is the center of all activity on Vulcanus with its many forms of
mental participiation and activity. The flowers function according to the best hour
suited to their type, thus, the flowers of the 8 th hour do not function at the 7th or
9th hour. During the periods when they do not function, they withdraw into themselves
where they practice a sort of magical retirement from the activity of the world. The
occult student of the advanced work will learn just exactly what he is to do with the
various flowers, so as to achieve the benefits of a correct knowledge of their power,
by knowing the hour of their power and the times of their magical retirement. The
government of Vulcanus is in the hands of the committee of overseers, who are magicians
from the world of Mercury, and because of this approach to Vulcanus and Mercury, we are
deepening the understanding of these two worlds, which we discussed from another
approach in the previous set of four lessons. This is because VULCANUS AND MERCURY ARE
THE MOST IMPORTANT WORLDS FOR THE STUDENT TO KNOW.

Various species naturally imply each other, so we have listed them according to
type, which means a relationship among the Species. This shows that there are four
basic types of flowers, which dominate the world of mind. Now, we do not pretend at
this level to be giving out all of the main teachings concerning these floral
realities, which is a matter of higher magic. However, by making cosmic hour 1 to begin
at mid-night, and adding 1 and 1/2 hours for each cosmic hour, it is possible to
determine the exact Earth times. This is necessary for finding the right times to
contact the right magical tides, which-bring to our attention the most suitable of
influences.
In closing, we give you the third of the magical symbols, which represents the
esoteric powers of this level of magnetism.
