“The formidable combined forces of Judeo-Christianity and modern science have never succeeded in wiping out pagan astrology, nor will they ever. Astrology supplies what is missing in the west's official moral and intellectual codes. Astrology is the oldest organised art form of sexual personae. Waging war on astrology, the medieval and Renaissance Church promulgated the distortion that astrology is fatalism, a flouting of God's Providence and the necessity for moral struggle. But the predictive part of astrology is less important than its psychology, which three thousand years of continuous practise have given a phenomenal subtlety. Astrology does insist on self-discipline and self-transformation. Judging astrology by those vague sun-sign columns in the daily paper is like judging Christianity by a smudged shop window of black-velvet day-glo paintings of the Good Shepherd.”

“Jehovah Elohim formed a creation which is female in respect to His spiritual manhood. In like manner, Jesus Christ is marrying the Church, the Bride of Christ. Therefore, there must be something about our spiritual makeup that is female. We are getting married, and there will be spiritual offspring. Whether you are a man in the flesh, or a woman in the flesh, has nothing to do with your spiritual sex.”
