Inner Ships of Tarshish

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the inner life, the king is your I AM, your steady awareness. The ships of Tarshish are the movements of imagination sent forth by your ruling consciousness, with Huram's servants symbolizing the cooperative faculties that arrange your desire into form. The gold and silver, ivory, apes, and peacocks are the images and sensations your mind uses to clothe a desired state. The three-year cadence shows a law of gradual return: as you persist in a single assumption, your inner fleet returns with tangible experiences that mirror your inner season. You do not fetch riches from without; you recognize that you are the cause and the result. By imagining yourself already prosperous, you commission the construction of ships; they depart from the harbor of limitation and dock at the shores of manifestation, filled with abundance. In this reading, prosperity is not future; it is the present tense of consciousness becoming form. The verse invites you to dwell in the feeling of fullness, to feel the weight of gold in your arms, the glitter of silver, the splendor of exotic beauties as evidence of your inner king's order.
