Separation (or fission) is the division, usually into two parts, of something. Esoteric history suggests that the moon was an integral part of the earth. But the moon had to leave the earth in order to allow the latter to have free space for its own spiritual development.

Each person on a spiritual path must try to understand and have a clear image of the meaning of this separation, also called spiritual fission, in their personal life but also in the cosmogenesis of the earth. What played out on a cosmic scale during this separation between the earth and the moon, according to esoteric literature, also plays out on a much smaller scale in our lives. This is therefore a law on spiritual evolution in general, it is the archetypal form of fission. But unfortunately, in our modern era all the imaginative faculties have materialized and it is therefore difficult to understand what an earth – moon separation can really mean. The ancients perceived the planets both as physical spaces but also as spiritual dimensions. The transition from heliocentrism to geocentrism destroyed this mystical and poetic approach to the cosmos and reduced it to its simplest material expression.

Going beyond the purely physical vision opens us to the mysteries: that of the cosmos and that of ourselves. What happens visually on the outside also happens on the inside. Our material vision is very limited by the peripheral externalized gaze. The other interior vision starts from the periphery towards the interior, it gives access to the mystery.

The moon would therefore have been an integral part of the earth according to esoteric history, then it would have left the earth. By breaking away, it would have taken with it the lower vibrational matter. It would then have allowed life on earth (including humans) to no longer support the weight of these lunar forces and to facilitate its spiritual evolution.

Likewise on an individual level, we cut ourselves off from a darker part of ourselves so that we can ascend into the light. What is low descends to the earth, what is higher can rise. Because from a certain threshold in the spiritual evolution of a person or a star, an internal gap is created between one part of this person and another.

Separation allows this vibrational gap to be concluded. This can take the form of a loss or theft of objects (which represented the lower parts of the person or which no longer corresponded to their much higher overall frequency), separations between people… The esoteric gaze depersonalizes the person. separation event, keeping only the vibrational aspects. This is spiritual fission: a negative event such as a burglary or a separation is then perceived as the revelation of spiritual progress.
