Secret Systems of the Rosicrucians part 1

Mars: Fear, heat, therein consists the sensibilities.
Mercury: Bitter, drawing and moving out of the harsh quality, which causes a sting within, and remains in that spirit, the existence of mobility.
Saturn: Harsh, hard, cold, severe, sharp, sour, inclined to rudeness and earthliness, its desire consists out of these qualities.
Sun: Fire or life, half in darkness, half in light, is the setting alight and the goal of separation.
Moon: The being, made of of the forenemaed six spiritual qualities, in which they lie bodily and in readiness, as in their coffer.
Jupiter: Is the power from the life of light, in it is fulfilled God's word of the cognition, sound, call and tone.
Venus: Light, love, fire, which burns in the oil of Mercy, in which consists the heavenly life.

The first and dark Principium. God the Father, being called a consuming fire.

The other Principium of light, being God's Son, is one with the eternal world of light.

The Principium of the fire belongs to the world of the four elements, being an offspring of the first two, and is the third principle.

Whenever the first three qualities of the first dark Principii gain the upper hand, then the others are tied up around their Centro and all seven are evil. Then Saturnus stands for avarice, Mercurius for envy, Mars for wrath, Sol for vanity, Venus for lewdness, Jupiter for cunning and Luna for bodily desire, which are the seven evil spirits ruling within the old human being.


But when the three in the Principio of light have the upper hand and are born out of the dark Centro, so that they are in accordance with their innermost depths of light, which is the new birth in man, all seven are good, and then Saturnius stands for compassion, Mercurius for doing good, Mars for gentleness, Sol for humility, Venus for chastity, Jupiter for wisdom, and Luna for Christ's flesh or body.(Secret Systems of the Rosicrucians)
