"When the divine principle in man speaks in the depth of his being, the remaining portions of his nature should reverberate in sympathy. Without the presence of this divine principle in him man would be less than human. Because of its presence in him he can become more than human."
Walter Leslie Wilmshurst, Further Notes on Craft Symbolism
If SEVEN was the number rounding out the cycles, SIX was the one that completed the physical evolution of the life forms of any cycle. The progress achieved in the first six sub-cycles was necessary preparation for the channeling down of the SPIRITUAL grade in the seventh and climactic sub-cycle.
Alvin Boyd Kuhn, The Esoteric Structure of the Alphabet
If SPHINX derives from the ANKH symbol, it is not at all unlikely that the other great emblem suggestive of the SPIRIT involved in matter... the PHOENIX, stems from it likewise.
