The same forces that were excreted with the Moon, that had developed out of the substance of the Earth, are still present in the layers of the Earth. Besides all the forces which have the good disposition to become solar forces, there are also still present the forces which have the disposition to become lunar forces. Through white magic the Earth is becoming ever closer to its solar nature; through the forces of black magic it is becoming closer to its lunar nature. Through white magic everything must be defeated which does not lead by the way of enlightenment, of wisdom, to the mastery of spiritual forces. For all such procedures, such activities, as they have been called, do not lead by the way of wisdom, of insight, not by really looking into it, to the mastery of spiritual powers, but they are copied from nature, in that machinations and procedures are undertaken with it, by which powers without enlightenment are to be attained.

Through the human powers that are transformed, solar powers are born from man himself, so that the lunar powers lie at man's feet.\|101\|135ff}}		What, then, would be the result of a prevalence of black magic on our Earth?

	{{Quote\|1 And a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. 2 She was pregnant and was crying out in birth pains and the agony of giving birth. 3 And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great red dragon, with seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads seven diadems. 4 His tail swept down a third of the stars of heaven and cast them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she bore her child he might devour it. 5 She gave birth to a male child, one who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, but her child was caught up to God and to his throne, 6 and the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, in which she is to be nourished for 1,260 days. 7 Now war arose in heaven, Michael and his angels fighting against the dragon. And the dragon and his angels fought back, 8 but he was defeated, and there was no longer any place for them in heaven. 9 And the great dragon was thrown down, that ancient serpent, who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world—he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.\|[[Apocalypse of John]]\|{{BB\|Rev\|12:1-9}}}		{{Quote\|1 And a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. 2 She was pregnant and was crying out in birth pains and the agony of giving birth. 3 And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great red dragon, with seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads seven diadems. 4 His tail swept down a third of the stars of heaven and cast them to the earth.

'''Nachiel''' ({{Hebrew|נכיאל}}), the '''Intelligence of the Sun'''<ref>[[w:Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa|Agrippa von Nettesheim]]: ''Die magischen Werke'', Fourier Verlag, Wiesbaden 1985, p. 251</ref><ref>Francis Barrett: ''The Magus'', London 1801, S 146 [http://www.sacred-texts.com/grim/magus/ma150.htm sacred-texts.com]</ref>, stands for the strong forces of the [[Sun]] that had to separate from the [[Earth]] at the beginning of [[Genesis]] so that the Earth would not be spiritualised too quickly. This happened in the [[Hyperborean period]]. The [[Elohim]] could now begin their work of creation. Nachiel has the numerical sum 111 in {{Hebrew}}, which results from the numerical values assigned to the letters. Since in Hebrew one reads from right to left, it is as follows:

{| align="center" width="400px"
|-
| align="center" | 30 || align="center" | 1 || align="center" | 10 || align="center" | 20 || align="center" | 50 || align="center" | = 111

The hardening counterforces to this are formed by the earth or sun demonium [[Sorat]], the two-horned beast of [[John's Apocalypse]], with the digit sum [[666]], the [[Number of the Beast]].
