CHAPTER 2 47
In this RIGHT footprint we see the time element in the head of the fish, and this is represented by the
swastika. There is no eye represented here because the fish is more or less blind to certain time conditions.
See St. Matthew 24:36: "But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my
Father only." And again in Mark 13:32: "But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels
which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father."
The RIGHT footprint therefore, taken as a whole, can signify the Aquarian Age; and that Age is now
manifesting, for the RIGHT footprint itself is not a fish symbol, but the fish is shown inside the total footprint,
therefore it is swallowed up by the New Age. The RIGHT footprint shows something of the past of the planet
Earth; something of the present; and something of the future in that certain events will take place if Universal
Law is not learned or practiced here. It shows that space people have been to Earth before in remote times of
antiquity and it shows our neighboring planets of this System and what their relative positions are in regard to
States of Progression. In this footprint, we also see the Germ of Man's Life encased within the darkness of the
interior of the Great Fish. Man's life on Earth can open into glorious fulfillment never before realized. The
active force from the oval of Saturn pointing to the symbolic left hand with palm away, shows that Man can
progress or rise through the hand being offered by our brothers from outer space at this time.
It is, of course, impossible to come to any kind of a conclusion in such a short analysis of the tracks on the
desert. Much of the material used here first appeared in my: "A Preliminary Report On Analysis Of Symbols
From Footprints Left By A Man From Outer Space--November 20, 1952." Everyone who diligently studies
the footprint symbols comes up with a new interpretation and sheds new light on the meaning of it all. The
people of outer space have given these symbols in the way they have so that man will _think!_ It is evident
that the symbols in both the LEFT and RIGHT footprints have many, many meanings and a great message for
the people of Earth.
To show that a great deal of research is still needed before we can get anywhere near a complete
interpretation, suppose we thought of the oval and crossed lines in the RIGHT footprint as representing a man
form. Each planetary body would therefore represent a certain part of Total Body Form in the Grand Man or
the Creator. If this is so, then we must go into the meaning of various parts of the body. For example, the
hands mean spiritually all the desire and thought which we put into the deeds we do. In a word, the hands are
the deeds, which, regarded spiritually, consist of the desire and thought which prompt them. The hands are
extremes of the body, and obedient to inner desires and thoughts. Love of doing or service and knowledge of
how to do. The right hand represents love and the left hand represents thoughts we put into our work. Those
on the left hand are those who learn but do not do. In St. Matthew 6:3, we read: "But when thou doest alms,
let not thy left hand know what they right hand doeth . . ." And in Psalm 31:5: "Into thine hand I commit my
spirit: thou has redeemed me, O Lord God of truth." And again in Psalm 31:15: "My times are in thy hand:
deliver me from the hand of mine enemies, and from them that persecute me."
For a more complete footprint interpretation we will have to study the symbolism and meaning of numbers as
well as symbolic anatomy. Also, more research will have to be conducted along the lines of the world's most
ancient symbolism. For instance, the emblematic hand of the mysteries was a carved hand covered with
numerous symbols and this was extended to the neophytes when they entered into the Temple of Wisdom. An
understanding of the symbols embossed upon the surface of the hand brought with it Divine power and
regeneration. Therefore, by means of these symbolic hands the candidate was said to be raised from the dead.
The hand of the mysteries is also known as the hand of the philosopher. When the disciple of the Great Art
first beholds this hand, it is closed, and he must discover a method of opening it before the mystery contained
therein may be revealed. In alchemy the hand signifies the formula for the preparation of the tincture
physicorum. The four fingers represent four Divine Agents through the combined operations of which the
Great Work is accomplished. The wise take their oath by the hand that they will not teach the Art without
parables. To the Qabbalist the hand signifies the operation of the One Power (The crowned thumb) in the four
worlds (the fingers with their emblems). Besides its alchemical and Qabbalistic meanings, the hand
symbolizes the hand of a Master Mason with which he "raises" the martyred Builder of the Divine House. The
