Chapter V
Fig. 5.5 Crystal PalaceIn the Universal Tao meditation practices, we use the combined energy of the North Star
and the Big Dipper to connect with the Universal Light.
The Big Dipper light (red) is absorbed by the thalamus and hypothalamus glands while
the North Star (violet) relates to the pineal gland. The pineal gland is our internal com-
pass, while the North Star is our external compass. Taoist masters believed that if the
North Star was able to keep all the constellations in orbit, its size and mass would be
enormous.
In Taoist cosmology, 28 constellations are ordered around the North Star and the Big
Dipper. In each of the 28 days of the moon cycle one of the constellations reaches its
maximum influence. The special magnetic field of moon and earth energies combined
together, attracts these fine star energies creating a special spiritual condition on our
planet.
Besides the 28 constellations around the North Star there are billions of milky ways
each with billions of stars in their universe. All these stars have a direct connection with
the billions of cells in our body, where at the moment of fertilization and birth a specific
position gives you a unique charge and direction in life.ThalamusPineal
