cularly noticeable with the appearance of sun-spots, which apart from provoking

magnetic storms, frequently cause social disturbances and even wars.
Until quite recently, positive science could observe the Sun only through the

Tritocosmos and the Mesocosmos. Research, during the past few years, has enabled us

to photograph the Sun and to mitigate the effects of the filtering of radiations through

the atmosphere; so we can realize, now, the importance of the distortionary influence
of this screen: the aspect and, above all, the colour of the Sun change as soon as one

reaches the stratosphere. The possibility of launching satellites equipped with

scientifical instruments, should enable us to gather information on the exterior aspect

of our Absolute in conditions which, if not identical, are nonetheless similar to those in
which scientifical data relating to the Earth are gathered: to observe the Sun as it

appears when seen from the heart of its own cosmos and not through two successive

screens.

Though of a different nature, the relationship which exists between the Earth and the

Moon and the influence each exercises over the other, are of considerable importance

for organic life on our planet.
The Moon, which corresponds simultaneously to the note RE of our lateral octave and

of the Great Octave, is a member of the Tessaracosmos insofar as it is a planetary

satellite and a member of the body of the Cosmic Mother.
