The HermaphrOdte figure is the
symbol Of a double nature, anciently
assigned to the Deity, as Generator and
Producer, as Brahm and Maya, among
the Aryans, Osiris and Isis among the
Egyptians. As the sun was male, so
the moon was female and Isis was
both the sister and wife of Osiris. The
Compasses, therefore, is the Hermatic
symbol of the Creative Deity, and the
Square of the productive earth or uni

spiritual and immortal portion of man;
from the earth his material and mortal
portion. The Hebrew Genesis says
