The TAU (Ta-oo).--The Tau is not only one of the most interesting, but it is one of the most ancient symbols, as it. is found repeatedly in the oldest writings of the Motherland.
It is the symbol of both resurrection and emersion. Emersion is really only a resurrection of land. I know of no country on the face of the earth today that has not been under water several times-thus each time it was emersed it was resurrected.
The Tau
The name today is as it was in the Motherland--Tau; it was Tau then and it is Tau today. It is one of the very few words that has persisted through all time without a change in any way. The name means "the stars which bring the water." Ta--stars, and ha--water. The Marquesans today pronounce it "Ta-ha" (the pure Motherland pronunciation).
The Tau is the picture of the constellation, the Southern Cross, the most gorgeous group of stars appearing south of the equator. When the Southern Cross appeared at a certain angle over Mu, the rainy season commenced. The parched, dry land responded to the moisture from above. Leaves, flowers and fruit sprang forth upon tree and shrub. Seeds in the ground, that had been lying dead, germinated and sprang forth into life, enriching
Is it just coincident that the Tau in the Blue Lodge is inverted (immersed)? Is it just coincident that the Taus in the Red Lodge are not (resurrected)?

The Path of Tau on the Tree of Life is one of the most difficult, being ruled by Saturn. Saturn is also the Planetary Power that rules Initiation. When I recommenced my studies of the Tree ofLlife I STARTED with Saturn and Mars (Binah and Geburah). My reasoning was that it could only get EASIER after that. I was RIGHT.
