Christos Χριστός

Χριστός (Christ): Christos, “the Anointed One,” and Krestos, whose esoteric meaning is “fire.” The word Christ is a title, not a personal name.

Cleopatra Κλεοπατρα

Cleopatra derives from the Greek name Κλεοπατρα, Κλεος-Πτα (Kleopatra) which means “glory of Ptah, the father” derived from (κλεος – kleos) “glory.” This is combined with πατρος, patros, “of the father (Πτα – Ptah)” or Κλεος-Ποτήρ “glory of the cup” (ποτήρ – potēr). The cup, the yoni, the feminine sexual organ, is the Holy Grail. Thus, Kleo-poter is Cleopatra. Potēr means cup, chalice, grail, the sexual yoni. When you say Cleopatra, you are indicating the feminine sexual force of God. This is why the Cleopatras were vestals in Egypt.

    <li>Kleopatra: “keys to the father,” from kleis [κλείς] “keys” + patros [πατρος] father
  • Kleopatra, Kleopetra: “Keystone,” from kleis [κλείς] “keys” + petra [πέτρᾳ] “stone”

Thus, Kleopatra symbolizes the keystone, which in the previous lecture the speaker was explaining. The keystone of the temple, the cornerstone of the temple, is a woman.

In Alchemy, in the beginning the color of the stone is black. The charcoal contains the fire within. Alchemically speaking, all of us are black because the female aspect of our sexuality is black. This is why Ptah is black. This is why Osiris is black, and Cleopatra the great vestal, is black; and as well because ancient Egypt which is in Africa, is the land of the black people.

Dionysus

(Greek) Διονυσο, Dionysos, from dio, “god,” and nusa, “tree,” thus the name literally means “god of the [world] tree.” Also called Bacchus (“riotous”).

We find the staff within the Abrahamic traditions as well as the Greco-Roman mythologies, such as the pine cone staff of דיוניסוס Dionysus (Deus-Isis, the power of the God יסוס Isis within the sperm or נ Nun). Let us remember that the pine represents the spirit, since it is the tree of Aquarius (Aqua, water; Aries, fire) or sexual magic. This is why the Greeks depicted Dionysus with such a staff. We even find that the spear or weapon of the Trojans and Achaeans within The Illiad are phallic in nature, representing not only the male generative organs but also the spine. If you do a comparative study of different religions and mythologies, you will never find an end to such correlations.

Drakontias

Ancient Greek δρακοντίας (drakontías), from δράκων (drákōn, “serpent, dragon”)
