The clarification of the earthly states as the lower parts of the earth is still up for research. Is there any connection to these names and the Zodiacal Ages?So lets look at the diagrams of these heavens. To return to the Names of God regarding the four worlds.
The Sefiroth is the bridge connecting the finite universe with the infinite God. The Sefiroth of Construction Heaven will be also seen as in the Ten Curtains of the Tabernacle equating to the Ten Firmaments or Sefiroth, and seven of these ten are the seven created heavens (the “third heaven” is mentioned in 2 Cor. 12:2) leaving three Kether-Hokhmah-Binah which are in the Heaven of Heavens with theMetatron-Shekhinah-Avir, with the center containing the One. The Heaven of Heavens is also called Araboth, translated as ‘clouds’, derived from the root A R B, which means something mixed.     Remember that in Enoch’s translation to the tenth Heaven which was called Aravoth, which is where Enoch recognized the constellation whence came our first ancestors, the star Altair (in Aquila). Aquila is the eagle constellation located northwest of Capricornus, which is the starting point of this book. In Araboth the countenance of the “Lord” (Holy One) was seated on a lofty throne and angels (Cherubim and Seraphim) were constantly approaching Him to receive orders. Some state that Enoch became Metatron at this point. As we have seen this place is called the “heaven of heavens” in Deuteronomy 10:14; 1 Kings 8:27; Nehemiah 9:6; Psalm 148:4, and the “highest heavens” in the NIV. Now to refer to the symbolism of the sevens, notice that if one totals up the four aspects of the sevens, respecting the fact that there are only six in Araboth. The result would be represented by 7 hells, plus 7 earths, plus 7 created heavens, and 6 celestial principles which totals to 27. The Aleph or One in the center would represent all twenty seven, all are one. As we have seen the numerical value of the name of God (YHVH) would equal 27, it is of great significance. Since the macrocosmic Finite Universe is 10 to the 27th power of the size of man, and also to be noted is that the opposite end of the spectrum is the unknown Unified Field Entity is 10 to the power of negative 18th in the microcosmic view from man. This is symbolic of the Point within a circle, which contains all that is therein.

YAH [(Jah Heb. Yah, is a contraction of Jahweh, found in the poetry of Psalms 68:4; 118:14 (RSV mg)] is also the name for the return to the beginning in significance to the dragon and the serpent. The beginning is the supernal point, hidden in thought and it makes the end of matter, which beyond there is no end, but the Absolute. At its point of departure it is unknown, neither of the way of its going out from nor the way of its re-entry can be defined.

• In Psalms 68:4 “Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon the heavens (Araboth) by his name JAH, and rejoice before him.”
• In Ecclesiastes 12:1 Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them;
  12:2 While the sun, or the light, or the moon, or the stars, be not darkened, nor the clouds return after the rain:
• Ecclesiastes 12:6 Or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern. 12:7 Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it. 12:8 Vanity of vanities, saith the preacher; all is vanity. 12:11 The words of the wise are as goads, and as nails fastened by the masters of assemblies, which are given from one shepherd. 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. 12:14 For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.

The top dot represented position; the two dots below, extension; the three dots below those, surface; the four dots at the bottom, three-dimensional space. The pyramid, the most ancient emblem of the Triple Goddess, was philosophically interpreted as Beginning, Prime and End; and the central dot of this figure makes a five with each of the four dots of the sides. Five represented the color and variety which nature gives to three-dimensional space, and which are apprehended by the five senses, technically called ‘the wood’—a quincunx, (an arrangement of five objects with one at each corner of a rectangle or square and one at the center [Latin quincunx, quincunc-, five twelfths : quinque, five]), of five trees; this colored various world was held to be formed by five elements — earth, air, fire, water and the quintessence or soul; and these elements in turn corresponded with the seasons. Symbolic values were also given to the numerals from 6 to 10, which was the number of perfection. The tetractys could be interpreted in many other ways: for instance, as the three points of the triangle enclosing a hexagon of dots–six being the number of life–with a central dot increasing this to seven, technically known as ‘Athene,’ the number of intelligence, health and light.”

Plato used mathematical symbolism to express in Greek style the kinship between his tradition and that of the Hebrew. In Timaeus, he explains how the eternal God fashioned the world with spirit and matter bound together. “First of all, he took away on part of the whole [ 1 ], and then he separated a second part which was double the first [ 2 ], and then he took away a third part which was half as much again as the second and three times as much as the first [ 3 ], and then he took a fourth part which was twice as the second [ 4 ], and a fifth part which was three times the third [ 9 ], and a sixth part which was eight times the first[ 8 ], and a seventh part which was twenty-seven times the first [ 27 ].”

Notice it was done in seven parts or octaves, the seven phases of clarification of the elements which inaugurate a cycle of perfect balance between spirit and matter, giving it an active and receptive double form.

Note that the figures between brackets, form the series: 1, 2, 3, 4, 9, 8, 27 and the 9 appears before the 8.

These figures are the first two geometrical progressions: 1, 2, 4, 8 …. and 1, 3, 9, 27 …. and both are interwoven.

By placing Plato’s numbers on the above Solomon’s Seal it takes on coherence, with the upward pointing triangle becoming 1, 3, 9 and the downward pointing triangle having 2, 4, 8; the sum of 1, 2, 3, 4, 9, 8 is 27. Hebrew exegetes point out that the 1 is ineffable for men and knowable only to the Elohim, the sacred name, superhuman knowledge, thus 2 marks the beginning of human initiation.

The Hebrew numerical system has a base of 10, the base of the triangle of matter has 8 and 2 equaling 10. Ancient astrology, has always based its number system with a base of 12. The base of the triangle of spirit is a 9 and a 3 equaling 12. The total of these two bases 10 and 12 equals 22. Twenty-two is symbolic of the twenty-two different colors of light which correspond to the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet, having indefinite numbers of combinations according to the movement of the spirit.

Everything is linked with another down to the very lowest link of the chain and the true essence of God, is above as well as below, in the heavens and on earth, and nothing exists outside Him. In Isaiah 55:9 “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.”

As to the Signs of the End after the tribulation of those days seen in Matthew 24:30 “And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.” 24:31 “And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other (Mark 13:27 “from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven,” i.e., or simply the seven hells, seven earths, and seven heavens).”

The view is quite simple imagine the One, surrounded by four archangels, who guard over the spiritual forces flowing from the four letters YHVH, which stand watch over the four cardinal points from the (spiritual) center of the six directions of space (six-pointed star) with each of the other three looking over the other two. If we superimpose the seven hells, seven earths, seven created heavens onto one center point, that of Araboth, the Heaven of Heavens, we get a view of the three six-pointed stars spinning on one axle, as if we were looking at wheels upon wheels.

For each six-pointed star there is 60 degrees between its points, if we overlay two stars in offset as above it is 30 degrees and correlates to the twelve ages of the Zodiac. Two stars are placed inside these two, with one inside the other, and we possibly see the 24 thrones of the elders or angels and the four living beings in the center with the One noted in Revelation 4:2-11.

• Isaiah 14:12 “How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!” 14:13 “For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:” 14:14 “I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.” 14:15 “Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.”
• Revelation 12:3 “… appeared another wonder in heaven; and … a great red dragon (Devil or Satan), having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.”
• Rev. 12:4-6 “… his tail drew the third part of the stars (angels) of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman (Israel)…” which continues through verse 6 about the birth of her man child to rule all nations and was “caught up unto God, and to his throne,” at which point the woman fled into the wilderness (the world) for 1260 symbolic days or years.
• Rev. 12:7-8 “…there was war in heaven: Michael (the archangel) and his angels fought against the dragon ..” and his angels, who in verse 8, lost the war and also “… their place … in heaven.”
• Rev. 12:9-17 for deceiving the whole world “… the great dragon .. that old serpent … called the Devil, and Satan, ” was thrown out onto the earth, with his angels, and they have been there ever since. Woe to the earth since the devil came down with great wrath and persecuting the things and seed of God knowing that he has but a short time till his end.
