The Mirrors of Megak reveal a trinity of three Mesokirkoi within their configuration which in their turn constitute a forming of six Asters which can be grouped into Lower Asters and Upper Asters.
The Somatic Asters alternate between downward pointing Asters (Katabasis) and upward pointing Asters (Anabasis) upon the body, there being three of each Aster. The naming of their orientation as lower and upper is derived from the Dodekakirkos Orb (shown below), which produces the pentagrams for the Lower Asters with their points downwards in the lower hemispherical band and the pentagrams for the Upper Asters pointing upward in the upper hemispherical band.
Their positioning upon the body derives from how the Penters interlock as demonstrated in the interactive somatic mapping shown below .

The grouping of the Asters into two orientations is symbolic with the dichotomy of the Society and the Divine. The Lower Asters are the Asters of Sorcery and are aligned to the society, while the Upper Asters rise above such mundane aspects and are aligned to the divine.
Asters of Transcendency
The Upper Asters with their upward pointing pentagrams incline themselves to an uplifting and a more spiritual aspect compared to the ground level workings of the Lower Asters. Rather than sorcery, this gives these Asters a transcendent quality and a portal to the divine.
Encephalic Aster
This is the Aster of Creation.
The Encephalic Aster is centred at the pineal gland within the centre of the head. Visualizing a white light at the centre of this Aster is putting that divine light into the pineal gland, making it glow with the intensity of the concentrated power of the universe. This is the divine seed with which we can grow
The pineal gland is the regulator of sleep, and sleep is where we let go of our mundane concerns and motivations, and are allowed to return to the source. It is a divine orchestrator, where we experience our dreams which are our divine messages. The Encephalic Aster has this import as the pineal gland is at its centre; a somatic location of the White Room.
I originally called this the Aster of Projection because the word projection literally means to throw forward
, and it is this that the mind does by imagining future events and conceptualizing future possibilities. This is what the Aster of Creation does; it is the creator of our world.

Thoracic Aster
This is the Aster of Grace.
The Thoracic Aster is centred in the chest and is the pure love unsullied by the world, a wholesome, joyous acceptance of our existence with a revelatory I am here, I am
, the entheogenic identification which knows that God is love, and why it is said like that. The greatest compassion and the greatest peace and harmony co-exist with this cocoonment of love. This is grace, the recognition and gratitude of realising that we are here, and of our divine existence, being love, believing and having faith, confident, open and accepting, the protector of the First Self.
To intensify the gratitude and feeling of love, say “haaa” with it reverberating strongly in the chest to reinforce it while thinking “thank you”, and visualizing the Thoracic Aster movement coiling and encircling the heart.
~
Omphalos Aster
This is the Aster of the First Self.
The Omphalos Aster is centred at the navel. Visualizing a white light at the centre of this Aster is the White Room, the place of no time and no space; the place where infinity resides. This is our true origin and where we will return. Imagining this within the navel itself (the Original Opening), extends the symbolism for a deeper grasp of the First Self.

The Lower Asters
The Lower Asters with their downward pointing pentagrams all point to a grounding, with a connection to social environment and posture. These are the Asters of Sorcery, and include Stirring the Sacral Aster and The Song to Summon the Kundalini Dragon. All the Asters, upper and lower can be enchanted.

The Megasters
It is the Upper Asters, that when the Penters orientation is reversed and overlapped, three Megaster (double Aster with 10 points) are formed. It is only at the location of the Cephalic Aster, Thoracic Aster and Omphalos Aster, that this occurs and they correspond with the Taoist upper, middle and lower Dantien respectively. This gives these Asters a special importance. The Omphalos Aster could also be associated with the Manipura chakra, which is attributed 10 points.
It is only in the location of the Upper Asters where this transmogrification takes place: the Asters which are associated with ascendancy. When combined with the Lower Asters of sorcery, these are the Megasters.
