WHALE OF JONAHSymbolic of the evolutionary process and cycle through which the soul passes The Whale of Jonah represents the enclosing womb of nature within which the soul is submerged withdrawn from outer activity and subjected to transformation Through descent into the depths the soul undergoes gestation purification and reorientation before reemerging into conscious service This passage through darkness and confinement is not punitive but initiatory marking a necessary phase in the rhythmic unfolding of spiritual evolution As Jonah passes three days and nights within the whale so the soul passes through cyclic periods of obscuration within matter before its release The whale corresponds to the great enclosing circle of manifestation the cosmic matrix in which life is temporarily enclosed until its appointed emergence |
