Just as the Points of the Compasses Represent
the Work
Goals of the 1st and 2nd Degree
– the Cultivation of the Heart and the
Head respectively –
by Extension,
the Left and Right Legs of the Square
Represent the Work actually Done
to Cultivate one’s Heart and Head
respectively.
When you have not yet done
this Cultivation Work upon
yourself,
but earnestly want to,
you can get a Leg up on It
by examining
to what Ritual alludes.
Better yet,
make it a Point to do the Work
that Transforms each side of you
from an Oblong Square to a Perfect
Square.
-------------- MYTH --------------
Yes! The map is not the territory and everything placed upon the map are mere references. And when you don't understand "metaphors", you are bound to and bound by the imagined references upon these maps as if these metaphors actually exist as the symbols they represent!
