The Cosmic Human and Two Symbolic Cells
Two simplified human forms appear above circular diagrams marked C and D, with dots and rays indicating their internal arrangements. The surrounding text compares a developed cell with a rudimentary one and connects four spheres with physical, astral, psychic and spiritual existence. The plate belongs to the book’s esoteric account of the human being and cosmos. Its cells and magnetic poles express that historical symbolic physiology.
