CATTLE, OR OXEN
A symbol of those emotions of the lower nature
which are under control of the higher nature; or of the higher
desires among the astral qualities, wherein buddhi is reflected
through the desire-nature.
"And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after
its kind, cattle and the creeping thing, and beast of the earth
after its kind: and it was so." - Genesis i. 24.
And again the Divine nature directs that the lower nature of the
soul shall bring forth that which is first in order, namely, the
natural qualities. The cattle symbolise obedience and docility to
higher rule; the "creeping thing," cunning and subtlety; and the
"beast of the earth," animal instinct. And so involution proceeds
without struggle or strife, in perfect order and entirety.
