Genesis Creation Story Symbolism: Unfolding the Seven Days with Neville Goddard

The first chapter of Genesis is not a historical account of how the world began—it is a profound map of how creation unfolds within. When read through the understanding shared by Neville Goddard, each "day" of creation represents a phase in the process of manifesting a new reality from imagination. This is not about the outer world being formed in time, but about consciousness structuring itself into visible expression. What follows is a symbolic journey through these seven creative stages, grounded in scripture and the truth that the seed of every outcome lies within the self. Day One: Let There Be Light Symbol: Awareness and Recognition of “I AM” Genesis 1:1–5 (BBE): At the first God made the heaven and the earth. And the earth was waste and without form; and it was dark on the face of the deep: and the Spirit of God was moving on the face of the waters . And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. And God, looking on the light, saw that it was good: and Go...

“Holy, Holy, Holy”: A Metaphor of Imagination

“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory.” — Isaiah 6:3 This is not about ritual praise — it is a profound revelation of the imagination. The “Lord of hosts” is not a deity external to man, but the creative power within: the imagination, which commands the invisible hosts of thought, mood, and movement. It is through this power that all things are made. To call it holy three times is to intensify recognition — a building awareness that this faculty, often overlooked, is in fact sacred. Holy means set apart — not by distance, but by nature. Imagination is unseen, yet it is the true cause of everything seen. The triple “holy” is a progressive awakening to its reality and supremacy. Then comes the declaration: “The whole earth is full of His glory.” This is not a poetic flourish — it is a metaphysical truth. The “earth” symbolises the manifest world, and “His glory” is the radiance of what imagination has assumed to be true. He is the assumption its...

Gold, Frankincense, and Myrrh: The Song of Solomon and the Gifts of Assumption

When the wise men came to Jesus, they brought gifts that echoed deep poetic symbolism: gold, frankincense, and myrrh . These were not arbitrary tributes, but richly symbolic offerings that find their counterparts in the Song of Solomon —that fragrant book of divine longing and inner union. The Song of Solomon’s Perfumed Column In Song of Solomon 3:6 , we read: “Who is this coming up from the wilderness like a column of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, with all the merchant’s finest powders?” This is the soul rising through trial and assumption, perfumed with the very same symbols later brought to the Christ child. These aren't just offerings; they are poetic recognitions of the sacred inner transformation. Later, gold appears in radiant description: “His head is as the most fine gold, his locks are bushy, and black as a raven.” — Song of Solomon 5:11 The soul that has risen from the wilderness of doubt and separation now beholds the beauty of divine identity. T...

The Power of Three: Symbolism of the Spiritual Marriage in Scripture and Imagination

The number three in the Bible is never just a number. It marks a pattern of divine process — a symbolic marriage that results in manifestation. Neville Goddard teaches that this is not external history, but psychological truth : a drama happening within you. Three is the number of the creative act . Where two come together — the conscious and the subconscious — a third is born: the child , the result , the outer experience . Spiritual Union: Conscious + Subconscious = Manifested Reality Neville said the conscious mind is the male aspect: it chooses, directs, and impresses. The subconscious is the female : it receives impressions and gives form to them without questioning. When the two are in alignment — when the feeling of the wish fulfilled is fully accepted — the result is inevitable. This spiritual marriage is the hidden structure behind: The threefold cry of “Holy, holy, holy”: a sacred consummation. The three days before resurrection: the period in which the assumption...
