"Poland has been aptly described as a crucified but indestructible
country.
"Poland is a Taurus country. Taurus is a cosmic book-keeper.
When the debit page is finished both individuals and nations will
have passed before the divine tribunal of justice
—[Lady Master Portia, Goddess of Justice
and twin flame of Saint
Germain, hierarch of the Aquarian Age, is a sponsor of Eastern
Europe, edit.].
"During the transit of Saturn, the cosmic reaper, through
Taurus, all Taurean countries felt a heavy yoke of Karma.
It was under this stellar signature that Poland passed into the
crucible of tribulation. Her spirit remained indestructible.
"Poland, in spite of its great tragedy which turned the nation
into one vast Gethsemane, still nurtures in its heart the spirit
of freedom. Wrote a commentator: 'Polish patriotism is fiercer
than almost any other patriotism because it has been driven underground
so often and forced to feed upon itself.'
"This heroic country has never wavered in the slightest from
her idealism. Liberty, Freedom and Equality are her keywords and
always have been, from the beginning of her stormy and checkered
career, and we can be quite sure that no oppression will ever
be able to eradicate these qualities from her nature.
"Poland's indomitable spirit was displayed notably at the
time of France's fall in WWII, when she disdained surrender but
marshalled her fighting forces—which were then in France—and
joined the English forces across the Channel.
"In the light of her democratic idealism, Poland has long
visioned a federation of the nations in Eastern Europe as a prelude
to a confederation of all European countries.
With Taurean tenacity she has embraced the ideal of freedom, which
will encompass the world. In the white light of this ideal she
stands invincible.
"The White Eagle of Poland's flag
will yet, in due course, be floating bravely and securely in the
processional of the New Day, when
all nations will be marching together into a new civilization,
founded on the brotherhood of man."

Labors of Hercules in the Zodiacal School of Life"
