Each Godhead is an archetypal force governing a group of 4 gates. Discover which Godhead stands behind your mission.
What Is a Godhead?
A Godhead is an archetypal force standing behind a group of 4 gates on the Rave Mandala. The 64 gates are divided into 16 Godheads, 4 in each Quarter. Each Godhead represents a transpersonal force that acts through people whose Personality Sun falls in its gates.
Ra Uru Hu used Godhead names from various mythological traditions — Hinduism, Judaism, Christianity, paganism — to describe these archetypes. But these aren't religious concepts — they're mechanical principles acting through the neutrino field.
