Further Male Serpent Stars Revealed
The Male Serpent has a teaching mission. This part of us seeks to climb and master the gates of Knowledge that emanate from the Divine Mind as the 12 orbed Tree of Knowledge and Sciences.
From Stellar Nations-Soul Families we learn that the major stations and initiating stellar rays of the Male Serpent Nation are the Boötes constellation, which represents the spiritual presence of Melchizedek, Sirius A, the belt stars of Orion, and the entrance and exiting points of the Eridanus constellation. However, in 2009, while we were attuning into the grand theme of the Redemption Mystery, which was then published in our book titled The Galactic and Earthly Keys of Final Redemption, some further Male Serpent stellar worlds and their messages were revealed.
These revealed stars are in the Eridanus constellation, the long and winding constellation that looks like a celestial river. Eridanus is a river of initiation, a life-path.
In Stellar Nations-Soul Families, we are shown two of the important stars on this initiatory river – the entrance point and the exit. The gateway to the mystery of initiation is the star Cursa and the exit point is the star Achernar/Acharnar. But in between these entry and exit points, there are several other stellar initiation stations that test the Male Serpents in how they handle the power of Knowledge.
Since these further stars were not revealed until 2009, they are not explained in the Stellar Nations book. This is where we meet the serious lapses that happen when the power of Knowledge is abused. So, we would like to provide a more complete understanding of the initiatory tests that proved to be challenging to some of the Male Serpents along this life-path, and you might find some of these stellar conjunctions in your ©Antares Code.
We learned that Zaurak, the gamma star of this constellation, is a station along this initiation pathway where the tempting ray of the power of Knowledge is projected into the initiation process. On Zaurak the initiate is tempted by the great trial of the spiritual ego.Position (in 2009): Taurus 24°0’
(For a deeper understanding of the trial of the Spiritual Ego, see https://stellarnations.wordpress.com/2018/07/15/the-reality-of-the-spiritual-ego/ )
Zaurak reflects that the adept has earned many keys, has learned much, and knows a lot. But here they suddenly become overwhelmed with the feeling of ‘knowing everything’, inflated with the feeling that the world lies before their feet. The secret Knowledge and mysteries that they have mastered begin to dominate them. In this state they do not realize that the portion of Knowledge they have acquired is only the first level, and only a fraction. We can see when we look at the very long initiation pathway of the Eridanus River that the initiate has not even reached halfway at the stargate of Zaurak. Still, in the ecstasy of the power of Knowledge, the initiate realizes what immense power Knowledge conveys. They are touched with the feeling that the privilege of Knowledge may raise them exceedingly high. It may raise them above others, and they may like this idea.
They may also feel superior and ‘more than’ when they think that it is only them who understands certain secrets of their surroundings; it is only them who understands the mathematical, geometrical, physical, astronomical, and spiritual relationships hiding behind the processes in the world. Thus, they feel that their Knowledge gives them power over others and over certain processes of life. If this temptation overcomes their consciousness, then they leave Zaurak with the feeling that they can preserve this power and dominance by keeping this Knowledge from others and sharing it secretly only with those ‘similar to them’. They feel that they, and their associated group, should distribute among themselves the communities and worlds to be rightfully dominated by them.
Great scientists say that when one truly and deeply knows many things, then they also know there is so much more to know. True realization of the endless vastness of Knowledge, of the ceaseless emanations of the Divine Mind, causes one to humbly understand how much they do not know. With this stance one feels the infinite possibilities lying in Creation and sees the fact that even the greatest Knowledge reveals only a tiny glimpse. The humility of the scientist glows in this notion and this may be the ultimate conclusion needed to pass the test of this especially important initiatory gate.
So, if you have the stellar ray of Zaurak in your Antares Code, you might have experienced this sort of temptation in a previous life and fallen into the trap of the spiritual ego within this aspect of the Male Serpent Nation. The abuse of knowledge and spiritual knowledge is specifically related here. If you have this star at the points referring to your past and future, e.g., on the MC, Sun, Mercury, Ascendant, 10th House Cusp, or North Node, you must be very vigilant throughout your life. You should pay particularly sensitive attention to the temptations relating to the power of Knowledge and spiritual Knowledge as you may be tempted again, as you had been earlier. So, this star tells you that although the temptation may show up again and again quite unexpectedly in this life, still, you must hold Knowledge with the pure intention to know it as a sacred Divine quality. And it must be understood with the conscious establishment of genuine humility.

Another significant temptation follows on the path of initiation. This is the world reflected in the Cerberus constellation. As we learned earlier in the Dragon Nation, the star Azha in the Cerberus constellation represents the heart of a three headed dog which radiates the desire for power. The desire for power is one of the most alluring temptations. The star Azha touches into the Eridanus constellation and is connected with three stars in the Eridanus River. These three Rho Eridani stars represent the astral breaths of the three-headed dog, who guards the entrance into the hell region that is contained in the belly of the nearby Cetus constellation.
Above the heart of this dog in Azha, the three heads spew their vile breaths out into the galactic sky. The first one is Rho Eridani 1 and it expels the astral cloud of fear. The second one is Rho Eridani 2 emanating waves of temper, anger, and hatred which project out as alluring shadows of righteousness. Waves of envy and jealousy radiate from the third head, Rho Eridani 3.
So, in this passage the serpent teacher is tempted by the energies of fear, temper, anger, hatred, envy, jealousy, and the desire for power. The initiate must successfully pass through this swirling gate of vile temptations. It is decided here whether the adept can move on in the initiation at all. If he can resist the temptation of the astral breaths and keep his knowledge in the Light, then his journey begins to rise again to bring forth other wonderful mysteries. He may be given further keys to learn the universe and acquire the secret teachings of the 12 Sciences more deeply.

When the Male Serpent soul comes to the last third of the path of initiation, another important stargate awaits, theta Eridani, the star Acamar. Position (2009) is Aries 23° 24’.
At this celestial spot, s/he comes into a deeper contact with the Tree of Life on Arcturus than they have ever known, and the 12 Mysteries are projected into their consciousness. This brings an extraordinary moment wherein the power of enlightenment dawns in the initiate – Divine Knowledge as a system of complex relationships is revealed and this becomes part of the experience of Divine Knowledge. It is as though the adept now holds the universe in their hand through the keys to Knowledge. At the same time, one also experiences the dizzying and intoxicating power that they can control and possess with this Knowledge.
Then a question may sound with no words, a Divine inner question, asking ’What will you do with this Knowledge?’ The prospective teacher must answer this important question correctly. It must be answered in such a way that the adept integrates into their Being the principles moving the whole of Creation. And they must integrate these principles with the noble greatness and pure Divine quality of the Melchizedek soul. This enables one to realize the reason they are being given the treasure of Knowledge and this realization must rest on the understanding that knowledge is to be used as a means for building the bridge between the consciousness of the universes, worlds, planets, stars, and the human souls that have been separated from the Creator/ Universal Light/ Wisdom/Perfection of Source.
When a prospective Master of Knowledge has almost reached the experience of omniscience, he will experience the trial repeatedly, which is the trial of intention, ‘What will you do with this Knowledge?’ Based on this understanding, if you have the stellar ray of Acamar in your Antares Code, you may feel that Life asks this question repeatedly and you may fall into tempting dilemmas regarding how to use what you have achieved, learned, and acquired on the spiritual level or in the field of science. You are questioned in how you will use the Knowledge to develop your personal universe and how you will make that beneficial for others. So, how you appropriate the Knowledge and use it regarding your power ambitions is a central question and your actions illuminate your intent.
Thus, close to the moment of enlightenment and the ecstasy of the ultimate initiation, the adept may unfortunately absolutely fail if his intention is not able to remain in spotless Light. Even if all twelve Rays of Knowledge have gained stable meaning in one and they begin to use and understand them, failure comes with impure intent.
Like the initiations in the Egyptian sarcophagi, when one fails the trial of intention on the star Acamar, there may be cases when the initiate does not return from the inner labyrinth walked for Knowledge. The initiate is unable to return because of their failure. They did not pass the trial because they were not ready to use and convey Knowledge wisely in service to Divine Will. Thus, some may have a very deep sense of guilt that, although they were very close to possessing Knowledge, they failed. They did not realize purity in how to use their gains and they did not realize how to turn their Knowledge into teaching. This experience may have a serious impact on their next incarnations in such a way that Knowledge may remain inaccessible for them. They seem to have a blocked consciousness, a very heavy black mist that makes the relationships and internal logic of mathematics, geometry, physics, biology, etc. incomprehensible and unintelligible. A person having the codes of the Male Serpent may inherently experience an incredible strain and a great internal crisis from being excluded from such valuable knowledge. They can experience shame about not being able to understand the internal motives of these sciences.
Additionally, they may not be admitted to the institutions of higher education or the spiritual alchemical order that they so wish to join. Or they may instinctively know and understand the higher relationships but do not dare to put their knowledge to good effect. They may hide and dread the idea of being tempted by forces that want to buy their knowledge. And if approached, they may be unable to resist the tempting offer.
It is important to remember from the stellar mirror of Acamar that true initiated Knowledge can only remain in the hands and the mind of a teacher when they are able to operate that Knowledge in service to the Light. If someone betrays that Knowledge or uses it for self-purposed gain or delivers it to the service of the shadow alliance, Divine Knowledge becomes a tool of low magic. Unfortunately, this can be a devastating weapon or an unmanageable force in the hand of darkness.
We next come to the exit point of the Eridanus River where the Alpha star, Achernar, stands at 15º25’Pisces (2009). This stellar sphere is the location of an initiating school. While this star is covered in the Stellar Nations-Soul Families, we repeat its meaning here so we can understand the potential of completing the initiations along the pathway of the river Eridanus.
The initiation of Achernar means that you are laid into the Sarcophagus, symbolically – or in Egypt, physically – and after piercing through the darkness, a passage is revealed through which you can enter true Knowledge as the state of Awareness.
From Life, you arrive to Being!
You no longer approach things from the outside, it is not through intellectual processes and efforts that you gather the information necessary for understanding. Instead, you enter the world where the codes of Knowledge come to life. So, you simply get inside – and Knowledge will be a part of you as you have connected with your own inner Light and it has pierced the darkness.
This initiation is an incredibly important experience, and it means the rapture of a wonderful moment of Grace.
The mirror of Achernar tells us that there are one or more cathartic recognitions waiting for us, through which we can get inside the world we long to meet. It is interesting that Cursa is positioned in the sign of Gemini, the central theme of which is learning, the acquisition of lexical knowledge, while Achernar is projected into Pisces, which means complete union with the most supreme mystery. So, the initiation on Achernar rather refers to a very subtle spiritual aspect.
The place where Achernar appears in our Antares Code is the area where this experience of initiation awaits us. If it is projected onto someone’s IC, South Node, or the Ascendant for example, one can interpret that they can depend and build upon the initiations experienced in previous lives. So, s/he can be completely certain about being guided by past spiritual experiences, which have been burnt through them and that those will assist their present fate as a teacher.
On the other hand, if the ray of Achernar appears on the MC, the North Node, the Sun, or the Moon in one’s horoscope then these initiations are still ahead of him or her, to gift them with the big moments of their life, with catharsis permeated by pure recognitions.
With the understanding of Zaurak, Azha and the three Rho Eridani stars, and Acamar we gain further insight into the challenges of the Male Serpent pathway and the nuances of what it takes to acquire and hold the power of Knowledge in service to Divine Will, as intended.
We hope these understandings will provide valuable recognitions.
With Love,
