Dear Tony,

I agree with your assessment of this symbol -- the gilt triangle is pointing
earthwards, as it should be. I was only using the word "problem" to
indicate a common misperception of the seal when it is imprinted on book
covers, and to try to answer Frank who was hinting that "Crosbie's book" may
somehow be flawed. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Best Regards,
Wes

Dear Wes
Why do you think that it is incorrect (that is if you do) from the symbology
point of view that the gilt triangle is pointing earthwards? The upper
(grey) cover of the original SD does have black lines and other symbology,
including three entwined strands running along top and bottom. These
symbols (not the emblem and TS symbol) are repeated on the lower cover in
blind (i.e., there is no black). It gives the ideas (from lower cover to
upper cover) of differentiation, of coming into manifestation, light &
darkness, and so on.
