Neville Goddard on Song of Solomon 6:10-13 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Song of Solomon 6 in context

Scripture Focus

10Who is she that looketh forth as the morning, fair as the moon, clear as the sun, and terrible as an army with banners?

11I went down into the garden of nuts to see the fruits of the valley, and to see whether the vine flourished, and the pomegranates budded.

12Or ever I was aware, my soul made me like the chariots of Amminadib.

13Return, return, O Shulamite; return, return, that we may look upon thee. What will ye see in the Shulamite? As it were the company of two armies.

Song of Solomon 6:10-13

Biblical Context

The passage presents the Shulamite as radiant and sought after, moving through an inner garden to see fruits. It ends with a call to return, revealing inner powers that contend like armies within.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this lyric, the 'she' is your state of consciousness—the I AM waking to itself. The morning, moon, and sun image the inner light you claim as yours: a complete atmosphere of awareness that makes all things possible. The garden, nuts, vines, and pomegranates are the inner conditions and fruits you cultivate by attention. When you say 'Or ever I was aware, my soul made me like the chariots of Amminadib,' you glimpse how your thoughts propel you into rapid, decisive action as soon as you align with a new state. The 'return, return' is the invitation to re-enter that state whenever distraction sets in; the 'two armies' symbolize conflicting beliefs or faculties within your mind that can be harmonized by a steadfast assumption. By choosing to embody the inner dawn, you stop chasing appearances and let your inner vision redraw your outer circumstances. You are not changing God; you are changing your state of consciousness, and the world follows.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and enter your inner garden. Assume the state of the morning within you—being the dawn, the moon, and the sun—and declare, 'I am this consciousness and its fruits are mine.'
