23 August (Spirit) Liber LXV, 5:26-28

26. From the Crown to the Abyss, so goeth it single and erect. Also the limitless sphere shall glow with the brilliance thereof.
27. Thou shalt rejoice in the pools of adorable water; thou shalt bedeck thy damsels with pearls of fecundity; thou shalt light flame like licking tongues of liquor of the Gods between the pools.
28. Also thou shalt convert the all-sweeping air into the winds of pale water, thou shalt transmute the earth into a blue abyss of wine. -

Is this not the Pillar?
Mind as air is no longer capricious, but transformed into reflective water, subservient:
"The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.
—John 3:8"And the earth becomes an intoxicating sacrament, like wine.
Pools of water are places of death/transformation, as pearls they recall the moon and the changes of the moon. In this is the abiding experience of stability, the consciousness that links these experiences, represented here as tongues of fire. As stars, we are the unfailing light of the moon...
Also the limitless sphere shall glow with the brilliance thereof. A profound ecstasy attaches itself to this phrase. The glow is sexual and without the necessity of climax—without lust of result.
Love and Will

you shall teach the next step, you shall make a bridge between earth and the sun [= a star]- a bridge out of pure extasy...
