The Winged Self Our Emblem is a Balanced Cross
Prayer of the Winged Self
Our God who art our Winged Self by Kahlil Gibran
It is Thy will in us that willeth
It is Thy desire in us that desireth
It is thy urge in us, that would
Turn our nights, which are Thine
Into days, which are Thine also.
We cannot ask Thee for aught
For thou knowest our needs
Before they are born in us.
Thou art our need and
In giving us more of Thyself
Thou givest all.

The Winged Cross
The purpose of our symbol, the Winged Cross, is to focus thought in the inner Divine perfection of each individual. The Cross of Light holds us in perfect equilibrium with its inflow and out-flow of Cosmic Energies, through the open ends of the arms. The Cross balances us in thought, feeling and word. It is a Rosicrucian symbol used to identify one with another when traveling in Foreign Countries. In the inner planes, the symbol is an identification, and those marked with it can always be served with protection and guidance.
The four arms of the Cross denote our four vehicles; the Physical body, Vital body, Desire body and the Mind, radiating from the center through which they manifest. The center is located in the World of Life Spirit, the home of the Christ.
The White Rose at the center, symbolizes the impersonal, selfless Love of the Christ. Each petal is a quality, or virtue unfolding in us.
The wings, uplifted, beat ever higher when we give and serve others. When wings are folded, they gain strength by listening and receiving. Such is the experience of every soul upon the path.
May the meaning of the Winged Self Serve to make straight the way of the Christ in our hearts and thus herald a new and golden age in consciousness on earth.

The Winged Self
From the New Atlantis
Lord God of heaven and earth, Thou hast vouchsafed of thy grace, to those of our order, to know Thy works of creation, and secrets of them. I do here acknowledge and testify before this people, that the thing which we now see before our eyes is Thy finger, and true miracle, The Winged Self! And for as much as we learn in our books Thou workest miracles but to a divine excellent end. We most humbly beseech Thee to prosper this great sign, and to give us the interpretation and use of it in mercy; which thou didst in some part secretly promise, by sending it unto us.
Francis Bacon
