The Invisible House of Kher Heb



"But your holy place shall be untouched throughout the centuries: though with fire and sword it be burnt down & shattered, yet an invisible house there standeth, and shall stand until the fall of the Great Equinox; when Hrumachis shall arise and the double-wanded one assume my throne and place. Another prophet shall arise, and bring fresh fever from the skies; another woman shall awake the lust & worship of the Snake; another soul of God and beast shall mingle in the globèd priest; another sacrifice shall stain the tomb; another king shall reign; and blessing no longer be poured To the Hawk-headed mystical Lord!" -Liber AL, Ch. III, verse 34.


     On December 23, just over a week ago, "Thy House 418", otherwise known as Boleskine was reported as having burnt down at 13:40. Multiple agencies reported, but I will link to the one in which I am reproducing a photo from here. While it is not apparent what may have caused the fire at this point from the articles, it is an obvious question if it were accident or arson. Either way, the event seems portentous because upon finding out about it I thought about the 'invisible house' mentioned in Liber AL, said to remain even "though with fire and sword it be burnt down & shattered". This itself may even potentially be an m.o. for someone or some group, either to evoke a predictive response or to further the mystique through extreme measures of contrivance. Or perhaps it was an honest mistake or 'coincidence', or maybe if there is no such thing as the co-inciding of events, then a chance occurrence - whichever terminology you prefer. I still find it odd that in this 111th year of Horus, in which I have been trying to bring in the Maatian aspect of the Double Current (as promulgated by Frater Achad, and more thoroughly expressed by Kenneth Grant) most strongly that this verse becomes further manifested.

     This year has consisted of preliminary work to prepare not only myself, but all who have partaken of this journey for further induction into the Maatian tide of Aeonic unfoldment. It has become apparent, now with the fall of Boleskine as a token, that the original 'Spirit' of Thelema has passed on to new and different streams of manifestation that no longer resemble what Crowley himself created nor envisioned. While obviously his work is of great importance and value, it is also very important to remember not to be too dogmatic with his writings. In the case of modern 'Thelema'-based groups and the 'Caliphate' O.T.O. in particular, the situation has rendered these for the most part inert and ineffective - for strict insistence on dogmatic adherence to word-for-word writings from any one person is by its very nature anti-Thelemic.

     The work of Kenneth Grant, which has been strongly demonized and even subject to court proceedings to remove the O.T.O. symbol from his writings has noted this problem, as have numerous others. The irony is that since Kenneth Grant, not a single person from the Caliphate O.T.O. or any Thelemic group has produced near the quality of work as Grant has, at least in my opinion. If they have, I have yet to come across it. No one else's work has provided near as clear an understanding into Crowley's work and the true precepts of Thelema, as well as the underlying and inner meanings of many facets of the subject - and it doesn't seem even the 'official' inheritors wish to, at least not without milking the herd for what they can first. In my experience of going to the local O.T.O. chapter, the leader himself appeared to be largely unfamiliar with the work of Grant himself, claiming his books to be 'too expensive', but apparently knew a little from what he may have gleamed from wikipedia or someone else. It's funny because this is an organization that costs quite a bit of money to become a member of, but I was 22 at the time and even I had already obtained all of Grant's books and a whole occult library of my own and that's at minimum wage, come on now. I find this important since upon being 'quizzed' on some basic Crowleyan history and various Qabalistic correspondences and concepts, all of which I was able to answer easily, I proceeded to quiz them and mention a few things I've learned which lead me to actually be rather disappointed in finding out they weren't as well-read or open minded as I had expected. After having been acquainted with the work of G.M. Kelly (which itself is far from free of defect) it became a little more apparent as to why.

     One of my current magickal co-workers also has experience with this (dis)Order and has related a number of incidences which only parallel many I have heard from others regarding the nature of the people occupying leadership roles, which is typical of any position involving supposed authority. Perhaps some people are into that sort of thing. The problem however, is it becomes insidious and should be met with caution. There is nothing any group can give you that you cannot obtain on your own, especially when actual hard earned money is involved. When you are giving money in return for anything, you should begin to question in what way you are being vampirized. Though we all have to pay our dues in some form or fashion, we are always of free will to choose how we spend. Charity is a different story, but it will never translate as currency for debts.

     The Horus-Maat Lodge, which was founded by Nema Andahadma and Aion now appears to be defunct in the Outer. As should be known, Nema Andahadma is the magickal name of Margaret Cook/Ingalls who channeled Liber Pennae Praenumbra in December of 1974 and relayed it to Kenneth Grant, which lead him to realize the importance of the later work of Frater Achad (Crowley's 'magickal son') because they both heavily focused on the Maat aspect and connected in numerous symbological and mathematical ways which seemed too apparent to dismiss, especially considering the fact that Achad's later researches were unknown to Nema. This Order is based on Self-Initiation and according to the HML Charter, "The Horus Maat Lodge is a body Invisible on the Outer. It meets on varied planes and is not restricted by time or space". Thus, the Invisible House has always and will always be here for those who can attain access. The Work of the balancing of the energies of Horus with those of Maat are manifesting further, and this past year which has been particularly a 'double-current' year being that of 2015 and related to Atu 15, the Double One has been especially productive in this regard. 2016 will be related to The Tower/War and will signify destruction of the old to make way for the new. The Great Equinox is the great shift not of seasons but of Aeons, and the fall of the Great Equinox is this Year111 of Horus, wherein THE BALANCE between the dualities has been effected through this work and needs to further crystallize in the Outer. The formula of 666 has been justified and balanced with that of 999, the Key of it All has been revealed, and the next order of business is to bring fresh fever from the skies.

    Liber Mayan, or Liber 999 is now finished and can be obtained by request. It contains a treatise on the Work described in this publication, as well as an abridged Gematria database consisting of The Qabalah of Thirteen Chambers (i.e. 111, 222, 333... 1111, 1212, 1313).
