Symbols - What does heaven look like
Hourglass
To understand this section you need to have read the Egg, and the Matrix and the section on Cones.
Each ‘thing’ in the universe has a cone of energy but the Creator and Created portion of the Egg also symbolically has a large cone to itself, as such every tiny cone will actually touch at the apex, the Creator and Created cone………
The result looks like an hourglass and we find a number of symbolic references to hourglasses. Every soul is thus, in a sense, in touch with divinity – in touch with the Creator and the Created.
The hourglass symbol is particularly apt, because as the ‘sand’ trickles from one half to the other as you turn it this way and that you either get spirit input or spirit output.
