Spirits of Time

The Spirits of Time, Time spirits or Epochal spirits belong to the hierarchy of the Archai (Primordial Angels). In the Genesis account of creation they are called Jom (Hebrew: יום "day"); gnosis calls them Aeons. They stand as exalted spiritual beings far above man and have already completed their humanity stage, i.e. the development of their I-consciousness, on Old Saturn. From the beginning of the planetary stages of world evolution they are closely connected with all temporal events. In a certain sense, they are the essential time itself.
