Considering the Venusian aspect of brass, it seems relevant for me to have the construction described an "open". For me it's an interesting variation to think of the altar as receptive, burning silver and gold for invocation perhaps.

The mixture of Emperor and Empress symbolism in this verse leads to believe that the altar may be interpreted as the Ruach and Nephesh of the aspirant. Their opening may be the prerequisite to the arival of the "rich man from the west". He can't pour his gold on a closed altar.
