"Let there be light" can have a layered meaning that transcends just physical illumination. In the context of Thoth and other ancient wisdom, light represents the essence of consciousness—the *ALL-SOUL* as the Great Light, the source from which all creation emerges. This light is an awakening, a cosmic birth of awareness. And in our own human experience, being born into the world can be seen as a journey into light, where we awaken not only to sensory perception but also to the potential for higher understanding and self-discovery.

This connection draws an elegant parallel between the birth of the cosmos and our individual lives. In both cases, "light" serves as a metaphor for coming into awareness—first, the divine illumination at the creation of all things, and second, the personal illumination we experience upon entering the world. It’s as though every life mirrors that primordial moment of "Let there be light," awakening us to both the physical world and the deeper realms of spirit.
