IE OU

 A symbol of the Higher Triad,-atma-buddhi-manas,-which apparently limits the lower quaternary which proceeds from it.

"The Six Eons under Adamas have refused the mysteries of Light. They have accordingly been bound by Ieou in the Fate-Sphere." - "Books of the Saviour," Pistis Sophia.

The six divisions of the cycle of life ruled by the lower nature (six signs under Adamas) are those states of soul attached to things of the lower self, those in whom the sense of separateness is not killed, and who are of the old dispensation under coercive law. These states have refused, as it were, to be led by Love upwards to the Truth. They have therefore had an apparent limitation imposed upon them by the Prince of Light, to remain under the law of karma. Apparent limitation, as obviously the lower cannot be the means of limiting the higher impulses. The allegory refers only to appearance and not reality.
