‘There were twelve people in the “Sphere Working,” evenly divided into six women and six men. Every Sunday from noon to 1 PM, in their own separate homes but working simultaneously, they began by creating an image of a Cup of the Solistes (Holy Grail) containing a burning heart that represented Tiphareth. The sephiroth of the “middle pillar” (Kether, Daath, Tiphareth, Yesod, and Malkuth) were aligned on a central column, with Kether envisioned as a flame arising from the top of the Cup and Malkuth forming its base. The remaining six sephiroth were doubled to form twelve and arched toward the four directions, creating a sphere around Tiphareth. Each person took one of twelve sphere positions, envisioning themselves not only as the corresponding sephira but as an entire Tree of Life and within that sephira. They saw themselves clothed in the color of the planet, bathed in an aura the color of the sephira, and they consciously projected appropriately colored rays of light to the nearest sephiroth on the central column and to the sephiroth above and below them. This was an effort of tremendous concentration and visualization ability in itself, but the work was only beginning.

‘First they imagined that the sephiroth projected on the sphere were each approximately ten feet in diameter. This image was projected astrally over the second order headquarters at 36 Blythe Rd. Then they imagined a larger sphere formed over all of London, each sephira one mile in diameter. Next they formed an even larger sphere, 2,700 miles in diameter, over Europe. Fourth, they formed a sphere around the Earth, with Kether over the North Pole and Malkuth over the South Pole. In the fifth operation, the complete solar system (sun, moon, and planets) was placed in the center sephira of Tiphareth and the other sephiroth, each 900 miles in diameter, were placed in the starry universe and aligned with specific constellations.

‘Each individual then linked him or herself with their own Kether to the sphere’s Kether via a cord of diamond light through which they traveled to the flaming Crown at the top of the Grail. From Kether they all sent rays of light into the whole universe, the planet, the order, and themselves. Each individual then returned to his or her own sephira and began the journey back to Earth, deliberately treading underfoot the shadows known as qliphoth that could potentially generate evil. Thus they transmuted evil into good through the actions of the greater forces on the lesser.’
