Liber CCXXXI: A PERSONAL RESEARCH

 

Introduction

 

 

Started Invocation of Geni of Carcer about Midnight.[1]

 

The Path of Death is the Path of the Rosy Cross. Also, the Way is eternal. There must be no stop to rest (vision of house at end of dark corridor). All such are but tricks of the Magician. (There comes pain in identifying C. with the House idea. "Let there be no difference . . ." It seems I'm making difference. Am still linked to the girl. Of course! . . .)

 

BABAL-ON: She is the gate of NU. (Gate—door. ON = 120—the Eye XV plus XIII Death = 28 = 14 x 2. ART practices by two? Or with two? (For ART already implies 2.) 120 = C.R. Also a Death Symbol—and see the R.C. again with the Geni.

 

Must analyze 156 as a number.

 

You must go forward! Never stop. Once the Gate—Daleth—is allowed to become a House, you are in the Play of the Magician. The Magus is ΘΗΡΙΟΝ. The Magician is something else.

 

Open as many doors as you can. Look up Technically[2] in the dictionary.

 

She being the Gate of NU—through Her I reach My H.G.A.

 

Also, She is the way to the tomb of C.R.C. On a lower level. (Is this then the Fate of all men? And for this does the consciousness of Osiris abide in all men?[3]

 

Apophis = Set? Nay, but Apophis is She more than any other Egyptian god. (Kundalini, also, female.)

 

She is connected with the Feminine Aspect of Chokmah, because uniting Binah and Chokmah brings into the "Male" Sphere the influence of the "Female". (Above the Abyss no such complete distinction.) And Vice-Versa.

 

ARARITA = EHNB.[4] Must find meaning and study this Notariqon.

 

Started Vision about 11.15 pm. Ended at 11.55 pm. With AL requisites.[5]

 

Amn also = ARARITA and EHNB. Perhaps I have been pronouncing it wrongly? (it being Egyptian, not Angelic) But perhaps right word Egyptian. Quite possible, since Rules of pronunciation Hebrew letters and Moses Egyptian. Inner reluctance against admitting Moses was Egyptian! . . .)

 

And also Aum. Ha.

 

(Deleted.)

 

Draco BABALON, of course. (St. George allusion. Or just Jorge.) This is here in this Notebook.

 

156 = 22 x 3 x 13. Chokmah of Chokmah the purest part—of course! The semen-part of every Sephirah is represented by the Sephirah of the Sephirah.

 

She is the Daughter of Chokmah and Binah, while Tiphereth is their Son (and, in another sense and plane, the Son of Geburah and Gedulah). Observe the equilibrium of these Triangle Sephiroth, against the maleness of femaleness of the corner ones. (But are they not also product of the Male and Female preceding?) BABALON, then, the Secret Path that unites Chesed and Binah? Perhaps Chesed not son, but grandson of Binah? Tiphereth being the Elder, in a sense father of Chesed? No.

 

 

1—Carcer of Scorpio. Obviously, the period of time since the last investigation had been spent absorbing the insights provided by the Vision.

2—The Word of that particular Equinox. The sum is 156.

3—"Men" meaning human beings. The soul of a woman was also called "the Osiris" by the ancient Egyptians.

4—This is not a numerical identity.

5—Meaning, "wine and strange drugs".
