Firstborn Son: All three authors agree on Atlas's role as the firstborn son of Poseidon and Cleito.

Atlantis

Poseidon

Poseidon is depicted holding a trident, a three-pronged symbol which Plato uses to signify the three continents that were part of Atlantis's empire.

The trident also represents Poseidon’s dominion over the sea and earthquakes.

Poseidon is the founder and divine ruler of Atlantis.

Poseidon creates the island’s unique geography, including concentric rings of water and land to protect the central island.

Role: Poseidon is the god who establishes the island of Atlantis.

Creation of Atlantis: Poseidon shapes the landscape of Atlantis, making it a magnificent and fortified island.

Divine Order: Poseidon establishes laws and governance systems for his descendants to follow, ensuring a structured and prosperous civilization.

Protection and Blessing: The natural fortifications and the fertility of the land are attributed to Poseidon's divine intervention, making Atlantis a powerful and prosperous nation.

Role: Similar to Plato, Donnelly emphasizes Poseidon as the divine founder of Atlantis.

Cleito and Descendants: Donnelly reiterates the story of Poseidon and Cleito, mentioning their ten sons who ruled Atlantis.

Cultural Influence: Donnelly suggests that Poseidon's rule and the civilization he established influenced other cultures around the world.

He attributes many ancient civilizations' advancements and mythologies to the Atlanteans under Poseidon's rule.

God of the Sea: Donnelly also emphasizes Poseidon’s role as the sea god, highlighting Atlantis's maritime prowess and naval dominance.

Cleito and Lineage: Like Plato and Donnelly, Bridgman-Metchum recounts the marriage of Poseidon to Cleito and their progeny, who become the rulers of Atlantis.

Divine Intervention: He emphasizes Poseidon’s role in shaping the island and its defenses, similar to Plato’s concentric rings of water and land.

Civilization’s Peak: Bridgman-Metchum highlights the peak of Atlantean civilization under Poseidon’s influence, depicting it as a time of unparalleled prosperity and technological advancement.

Moral Decline and Punishment: Echoing Plato’s themes, Bridgman-Metchum also attributes the eventual decline of Atlantis to a moral and spiritual decay that even Poseidon's laws could not prevent.

All three writers agree on Poseidon's foundational role in establishing Atlantis, marrying Cleito, and fathering ten sons who become rulers.

Plato provides the original myth, focusing on Poseidon’s creation of the physical and political structure of Atlantis.

Sea God: All three emphasize Poseidon’s dominion over the sea, aligning with his mythological role and Atlantis’s nature as an island.

Civilization and Governance: Poseidon is portrayed as a lawgiver and protector, whose influence ensures the initial prosperity and order of Atlantis.

Poseidon's Role and Nature

Poseidon is described as one of the many fifth-density experiencers who could hold a body with great light.

Despite being associated with war and power, Poseidon is revered and respected, indicating his dual role in both creation and destruction.

Poseidon is seen as a deity of the sea, protecting and providing fortitude to those who find the sea their home.

Poseidon embodies a significant amount of spiritual and energetic light, indicative of his advanced state of consciousness.

Leanna explains that understanding Poseidon fully requires a fifth-density perspective, which transcends dualistic judgments of good and evil.

In fifth-density experiencing, beings like Poseidon are recognized for their roles in the greater cosmic balance, beyond the simplistic labels of war or peace.

Poseidon's legacy is intertwined with the Atlantean and Lemurian histories, where deities and advanced beings played crucial roles in shaping civilizations.

Leanna's message suggests that understanding deities like Poseidon involves embracing the dual nature of existence—both creation and destruction as necessary aspects of growth.

Those who work with or invoke Poseidon's energy can seek his protection and strength, especially in matters related to the sea or emotional depths.

Poseidon's fortitude can be a source of support in navigating life's challenges and maintaining resilience.

Leanna advises utilizing the spiritual and energetic principles associated with Poseidon to enhance one's spiritual journey.

Leanna's overall message emphasizes the need for balance and understanding in spiritual practices, mirroring Poseidon's role as a protector and a force of nature.

By integrating the lessons from deities like Poseidon, individuals can achieve greater harmony and spiritual growth.

By acknowledging and working with the energies represented by Poseidon, one can gain deeper insights into the nature of duality, protection, and the powerful forces that shape both the physical and spiritual realms.

The Seven Globes

Other Schemes, such as Venus and Neptune, also progress through their Chains with corresponding physical globes.

The seven Schemes of our Solar System may, for convenience sake, be named after the globe D of each, this being the globe best known to us; these are : Vulcan, Venus, Earth, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune (see Diagram I).

The Neptunian Scheme also, tfith Neptune as its globe D, has three globes of \ts Chain in physical manifestation — C and E being the two physical planets connected with it, the existence of which was mentioned in Theosophical literature before they were recognised by Science — and hence has reached the fourth Chain of its series.

The shrines devoted to the inner planets made a sort of irregular cluster which seemed quite close under the walls of the great Sun-Temple, while those of the giant outer members of the solar family were dotted at ever-increasing intervals over the plain, until the representative of far-away Neptune was almost lost in the distance.

With regard to Mercury, Venus, the Moon, and Mars, the Chaldsean measurements of relative size corresponded precisely with our own ; but Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, though immensely larger than the inner group, were yet decidedly smaller than they would have been if constructed on the same scale according to our received calculations.

The dress appropriated to Neptune was the least noticeable of them all, for it was a plain-looking dark indigo, though in high lights it too developed an unexpected richness.
