Maat and Masonry

The origins of Freemasonry have a long convoluted history and like many ancient occult Orders it has no precise beginning. It is probably much older than the stonemasons guilds of the Middle Ages, which is about as far as most historians are willing to go, but it has probably derived most of its traditions and knowledge from the Hermetic societies in Greece and Egypt and many other sources stemming from the Ancient middle-eastern, and Asiatic religions. 'Officially' the Premier Grand Lodge of England was established on June 24, 1717. The first Lodge in what would be come the United States of America was created on July 30, 1733 in Massachusetts. In 1797, John Robison, a Scottish inventor, physicist and mathematician, issued a book entitled Proofs of A Conspiracy Against all the Religions and Governments of Europe carried on in the secret meetings of Freemasons, Illuminati and Reading Societies which claimed that Adam Weishaupt's Bavarian Illuminati had infiltrated the Freemasonic Lodges, an order with a secret agenda to take over the world through its religions, economies, and social structures. The point to be known is that regardless of the flaws of certain individuals, Masonry itself is merely the upholding of the basic primary virtues of Man and there will always be those who seek to invert and manipulate things for their own personal gain but of course these are not the principles of true fraternal Masonry.

Masonry, and Illuminism in general, were not and are not always 'bad', and not always insidiously controlling, and dictatorial. Originally, and even somewhat still now, Freemasonry represented the highest form of Religion and Communion among the Many and the One. In the Masonic Temple, it does not matter what 'religion' or Path you take, for each Path is integrally significant. What matters really is the level of understanding, and the overall maturity of He or She who is in charge of that Path. The Path is what You make it, and that is the Great Work. In essence, Freemasonry indeed represents the true World Religion of Man and all are in its school, whether they know it yet or not. The problem is - the Black Lodge has gained more servants on its side and the balance has been knocked awry. Darkness shackles the hearts and minds of the many and Light only scares them deeper into the comfort of the blanket of ignorance. The Blind have made their Covenant and made more of a monster themselves than that which their small minds were able to even fathom in the first place. On the other hand, we have entire worlds of knowledge in libraries around the world and on the internet which contain records the heights of human knowledge and intelligence, often available for free to the public, and it all goes unnoticed and left to sit while the masses clamor for answers. The only way they can be helped is if they find it in themselves.

Etymologically, the word Freemason is said to come from the French frère 'brother' maçonmachun 'maker', 'mason'. Masons refer to one another as 'brothers'. On page 816 in Morals and Dogma, Pike states that "The Templars, or Poor Fellow-Soldiery of the Holy House of the Temple intended to be re-built, took as their models, in the Bible, the Warrior-Masons of Zorobabel, who worked, holding the sword in one hand and the trowel in the other. Therefore it was that the Sword and the Trowel were the insignia of the Templars, who subsequently, as will be seen, concealed themselves under the name of Brethren Masons. [This name, Freres Macons in the French, adopted by way of secret reference to the Builders of the Second Temple, was corrupted in English into Free-Masons, as Pythagore de Crotone was into Peter Gower of Groton in England."


FREEMASVN = 373, the number of Λογος (Logos) 'Word', a symbol which is revered in Masonry. The subject of 'The Lost Word' is very deep, but when you get down to it, the Word is really every word and no word as The Word being Spoken. As Frater Achad mentions in Liber 31, a form of the Lost Word may be ALLA, which can be thought of as the word of Life which is 'spoken' when breathing in and out, and cosmically as Being and Non-Being reoccurring. FREEMASON with an Ayin instead of Vav equals 437, the number of LThBH, the 'Ark' or 'Arch' of the Masons, as well as Λογος Αληθεια, the 'True Word'. It is significant that 4+3+7 reduces to 5, for 437 equals THE FIVE, the Star, as well as WINDOWS. The Window is Heh, the fifth letter and the fifth element which is associated with the Spirit which is of the Stars. In Jewish Gematria 437 is the number of The Pentagram as well, and Gematria Database showing how important a gematria database is for easily finding qabalistic connections between magickal concepts. THE FREEMASONRY = 666, the number of ΤΟ ΜΕΓΑ ΘΗΡΙΟΝ – ‘The Great Beast/Satan’, showing the Draconian connection (= The Dragons). The Dragon is also known as THE WYRM, which signifies the Trans-Cosmic Kundalini. This is the 'core' of the system, which in our Solar System is seen as the Sun, and as the Solar Self. Thus, in Greek we also havΗ Φρην =666, 'The Mind', or really the Heart or Intellect. Note also that 'Dragon Heart' = 666. There are also 6 protons, 6 neutrons, and 6 electrons in Carbon, one of the most basic  elements of our physical world. Therefore, it is Significant that the word Formation also = 666. And thus the Hebrews were right in there assertion that 666 denoted the quality of materialisation, or manifestation, appertaining to the Solar Divinity, ΟΣΕΡΑΠΙΣ and ΤΕΙΤΑΝ. 666 is the SUM of 1 through 36, 36 being 6 x 6. 6 is the number of Tiphareth, the Sun. It is the Sun which traces the Royal Arch in its course across the sky. Incidentally, I + JOIN THE FREEMASONS also =666, as do some other very telling correspondences - THE RITUAL, THE ARCANA, WORShIP, UNDERGROUND BASE (the vault of the 9th Arch), THE BALLS OF LIGHT, THE ORBS + THE MOUNTAINS, and PARASITES. These show the chthonic nature of a major aspect of the number 666, hence its association with זוחליהם, 'Reptilian' imagery and associations, as well as the association with the SATANIC ILLUMINATI BLOODLINES - this encoding is all rather just now being revealed and I myself am associated with no Lodge nor am I under any Oaths but my own and therefore all the 'secrets' I may be revealing are ones I attained at my own ability and it is my duty to awaken the Brethren of to the Knowledge that if they aren't at the right level to appropriate will remain occulted anyway

. It is deep within that the Spark is found, and it is far within (93 million miles within) that our Sun is away from us. 666 + the Will (93) = 759, the number of טנן, 'The Dragon', פיתגורס, 'Pythagoras', THE KEY HOLDER, THE ALLEGORYΦανης – ‘Phanes(From φαίνω, phainō, "I bring to light”.), The TARO Key, The Number of Gematria, Encrypted Code, N'TN (N'Aton, the Hive-mind of The Horus-Maat Lodge [also 759].)


MAAT = 442, which correlates with אפסי ארץ, 'The Ends of the Earth', the two spans at the end of any (and all) spectrums. Thus, her association with measuring, mathematics, and the matrix. She is the ruler of the Laws of Nature, and she is one of the highest aspects of the Great Mother. MAAT also equals 51, the number of AN the Sumerian God of the Sky. The word Mathematics is said to derive from Maat, and the Greek version Μαθηματικα (=430) is equivalent to Αριθμος 'Number', or 'Numeral', as well as Νομος 'Law'. This shows without a doubt that Mathematics and Numbers govern the Divine Law. 43 is the number of Triangles in the Sri Yantra, the 'Sacred Wheel', and 43 is MG, 'Mage', The Magician in the Center of the Universe, or GM 'Gem', the Gem at the center of the Lotus. 430 is also the number of WISDOM, and MAGICAL UNIVERSE. The Sri Yantra, or Shri Chakra, is related to the Mantra OM, or Aum (ॐ). It is possible to assume that GM is a veritable form of OM for the letter G, as Crowley notes, forms a nasally drone sound (as in AUMGN). GM is therefore the Mantra from the Mouth of the Mage (MG). Crowley died 43 years after his reception of Liber L. GM is also related to the Gems of Gematria, the Sephiroth themselves. The Manipura Chakra refers to the 'City', pura, of 'Gems' mani


In  her book Lord of the Flame, Elizabeth Van Buren makes an interesting point about the letter L that is relevant here. "Another mystery which surrounds the cubit is why the measurement called the "el" was associated with it. Phonetically the word, calling to mind the word "elbow", suggests the 90° angle which appears as the letter "L". L is the letter of the Law. The Divine Law of Maat, i.e. Mathematics, and of Spirit interacting with Matter. It is the beginning of the second half of the Hebrew alphabet showing the line of division, or balance.


The title of this essay itself came to me as an inspiration while working with a lot of different material on Freemasonry and a wide range of other Egyptian and Hermetic subjects. It just so happens that MAAT AND MASONRY have the value of 777 in Hebrew-English Gematria which just goes to show that the two currents which at the outset seem somewhat almost antithetical to one another actually go hand in hand quite well. 442 is the combination of FIRE and WATER, which form the Hexagram, which is sacred to Maat and Masonry. In Jewish Gematria, 442 is The Mirror, which again, is related to 11, the dual one. Maat holds the double-edged sword in the center of her Atu as can be seen by the fact that the Path of Zayin, 17 forms 442 by the fact that Σ17 (1~17, 153) + 17 x 17 (289). The path of Zayin is right above that of Lamed. L is the letter of Love and Zayin is the path of The Lovers. It is significant then that 442 is also the number of the SUN + SATURN, the sword being the link between the Womb of the Great Mother, and the incarnated Soul which was born from it. 

Both paths Lamed and Zayin are related to LAM. LAM equals 71, the reverse of 17, and means 'The Way' (of Truth), Lamed. Together, Paths 17 + 22 equal 39, LAMAL, the formula of Lam's manifestation. Lam is essentially a mask of a form of entity that is located somewhere in the desert of the Abyss having been spawned from the dead body of the Serpent whose head was crushed by the Abyss, (i.e. qliphothic phantomata). He is a form of Satan, the One that was Not (the spirit of the hole of absence, or 'death') in the form of a bornless, or 'dead' soul. Thus, he is also the face of the Fire Snake (Shin, fire + Teth, snake = ShT, Set/Shaitan.). LAM is mantra of the Root of the Fire Snake, and the Portrait of Lam is a vision of the Dragon itself. 



"The reconstruction of the eye symbolised the return of the full moon and ultimately the cosmic order, known as Ma'at: "I am seeking the Eye of Horus, that I might bring it back and count it. I am Thoth who brings back Maat I am he who returns the Udjet Eye, I am he who abolishes its dimness, when its brightness was damaged in the House of the Moon."

The connection between Bees, Maat and Masonry has been mentioned a few times before, but it is too important a symbol to not explore more in depth in this analysis. In Egypt, the Bee was called the abait, the 'bird-fly'. ABAIT equals 23, the number of the Path of Mem, and related to Maat as Kenneth Grant notes numerous times in his Outside the Circles of Time. However, simplified, Abait can be ABIT, 22, the number of the Path of Lamed, the Ox-goad which better equates with the myth of the Bees being the guides of the Soul in Amenta. 23 is the number of the TET pillar, the hidden pillar in Amenta, and the hidden letter that is the sum of all the other letters. Grant says that "The shaft denotes the place of crossing, an interdimensional duct that penetrates the Mauve Zone denoted by the TET (23). The Tet is the Pylon of Set, the Pillar "'stablished in the Void". This is the Hidden Pillar, the Phallus buried in Amentet. (Pg. 353, The Ninth Arch). This 'hidden pillar' is the Secret Path that crosses the Desert or Abyss of Daath. It is associated with Teth, the Serpent, but instead of Tau, the Cross, it terminates in itself (Teth). In fact, TET (23) plus Teth (419) = 442, MAAT

The Abit or Bee is said to guide the soul from Amenta to Aarru, or Heaven/Paradise, but it was only the souls that were equal to the feather of Maat that were able to pass. The Soul was thought to be in the Heart, and it is significant that the Path of Lamed guides the Soul (Yod) through the Flame of Truth and into the Amenta (=106, Nun). This is the process of reincarnation as the Self (Ayin, Eye) of the Hanged Man (Mem) is crucified in his revolutions on the Wheel of Life (Kaph). (See the paths surrounding Tiphareth on the Tree of Life). And remember that the Bee is symbolic of the immortality of the Soul. Note that Bee comes the from the Norse 'Bia', which is the Spirit. It is through this process of purification that the 'royal jelly' or Pure Gold can be formed. The Tet is therefore the 'portal' that leads outside the 'Matrix' and it is said that the Bees are also symbolic of the Outer Ones as well as the Lord of the 'Flies', or more correctly, the Lord of the Bees, Beelzebub. Note that ZBB is 11, connecting to Daath, the Pillar or Hole that is Not and therefore 'outside'. 

In Outer Gateways, Kenneth Grant mentions the Bee and its relation to many streams of relevant subjects:

"The final manifestations of Consciousness have been typified by the Arachnids, and it was precisely the spider which represented the ancient cult of the Ob or Python. The bee, beetle, or crab, is therefore the link between the earliest manifestation of the Typhonian current and its final phases. Note that all three are insectival, for the crab is a kind of water beetle, or is considered as such in occult lore. These phases consitute the links of a chain which precedes, includes, and then transcends the human component. But it should be understood that the human element does not grow out of, or into, the two Typhonian phases which precede and succeed it, rather, the human element appears as an interruption, an interference even, with the ongoing current. The Bringer of the Graal may therefore be envisaged as offering to this terrestrial and alien race of humans the chance of communion with the Typhonian bloodline. For the bearer descends from the Bear (Typhon), which embodies the type (Typh) of the blood royal, i.e. the sangréal.

   Henry Lincoln's researches reveal a connection between the Clan Plantard and the occult Order of Sion. The armigerous crest of the clan includes two bears. The name Sion (TzIVN) equals 156 which is the number of Babalon, the Scarlet Woman who collects in her 'graal' the blood of the saints. [156 also = TZLVL, 'limpid blood'] If the final letter of the name is given its de value, TzIVN = 806, the number of ThVTh (Thoth) who, as Set, is the son of Typhon (the second bear). 806 also denotes the empusae, the 'vampires', whose emblem is the calix horroris, 'the cup of horror'. 806 as 86 = KVS, 'cup'. KVS, Kush, is the Chaldean form of the Egyptian Khepsh, the Haunch emblematic of the 'Thigh' constellation, Ursa Major, the Khepsh being the place of outrance on earth for the seed of the stars. 8 + 6 = 14 = ZHB, a metaphor applied to 'the heavens'. 14 denotes the Door or Gateway, and as such it is a 'concentration of 86'. 14 (1+4) = 5, the number of the Old Ones, and the basis of their qabalah. It is also the number of Woman, the 'cup'. 

Five suggests the Quinotar, 'a beast of Neptune' which, Lincoln tells us, was the designation given to the marine entity connected with founding the Merovingian dynasty which plays a vital role in the Graal Gnosis. Lincoln also tells us that "one of the most sacred of Merovingian symbols was the bee"!

  Lincoln's researches have undoubtedly illumined certain phases of an ancient myth-cycle intimately associated with the Typhonian Current. They reveal a possible connection between an historic lineage - the Merovingian - and the Typhonian Tradition. In The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail, the authors reproduce the family crest of the Clan Plantard, the contemporary representative of which was, until recently, the Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion, an Order which, according to Lincoln, dominated the Order of the Knights Templar and various other highly influential institutions which, at certain periods of history, included the Vatican.


   The crest, which supplies the key to the current represented by the Merovingian bloodline and the ORder of Sion, comprises the symbols of the Typhonian line of descent: the two bears, eleven bees, and the fleur de lys. The motto incorporated in the crest reads et in Arcadia ego. Arcadia - 127, which is the number of the Egyptian Goddess Heqt who was typified by the 'lower part of the back, or haunch'. The two bears denote the Mother (Typhon) and her son (Set). The image of the bee pictorializes the buzzing or humming vibration peculiar to the Outer Ones, or their vehicles. [Note, in this context of vehicles, that the initials UFO = 156, the number of Sion. {VAV=13 + VAV = 13 + OIN = 130}] Eleven is the number of Those who are Without, or beyond, the Tree of Life, thus identifying the Outer Ones."        -Pages 82-84.

The Bear constellation, Arktos, or Ursa is extremely important in the mysteries and one of the more obvious veils of its symbolic nature is that the Bear is the bearer of Light, for being in the North, Arca, or the Arch is that which is above and descends, as the Light that descends from Heaven (Aaru). Arca and Ursa are similar, and notice that it is an arch that the bees are on which the Bears are reaching up towards. To correct an error of Grant's in the above quote from Outer Gateways, the gematria he gives for 'ARCADIA' is 217, which is actually the gematria of ARADIA, which is the Goddess of the Witches, according to Charles Leland. (See Aradia, or the Gospel of the Witches, 1899) ARCADIA is either 220, 237, or 317 depending on if C is taken as Gimel, Kaph or Qoph, but in Greek Αρκαδια is 137. ARADIA itself is 217, the number of דבורה, 'Bee', as well as Σηθ, 'Set', both of which are indeed Typhonian. 


Arcadia is symbolic of the 'Utopia', or 'Paradise', that which is 'Above' or 'North'. However, it has been said by some that the North is an inimical direction, for being that of the North wind. The Bible also points to North as being a source of evil:Then the LORD said to me, "Out of the north the evil will break forth on all the inhabitants of the land." -Jeremiah 1:14. Arca resembles Arche (Αρχη), the 'Beginning', and the Argo (αργω) refers to the Ark or ship, as in Noah's Ark. The word 'Arcane' also derives from arca 'chest, box, place for safe keeping', referring to the Ark of the Covenant. The Bear is the Bearer of the Graal, the Sangreal or Holy Blood. AR is Light and is the root of Aur. It is also the root of Ari, the Lion and Air, the virile life-force - vril (卍). Ari is the root of Aryan, the 'noble'. ARChA is mentioned in Nightside of Eden (pg. 94) and means 'Way', and Orach.

What's more is that 806, 'ThVTh', Thoth, the consort of Maat and TzIVN, are connected numerically and conceptually to Θεια Σοφια 'Divine Wisdom', and Το Σελας 'The Light', all of which refer to the Gnosis of the 'received' wisdom, the Qabalah. 806 is also THE ROYAL JELLY, the Sacred or Heavenly Gold. 


Mer means 'sea' and the Sea, which again, connects to Neptune and Atlantis. Merovingian comes to Meroveus or Merovech. Meroveus was said to have been born from a Quinotar (a sort of Neptunian sea-beast) and a woman. The words Mermaid and Merman derive from this legend. The name Merovech is really just Merodach, מרדך or Marduk, the God of Babylon in the Mesopotamian religion who governed magic, water, vegetation and judgement. Later on, Marduk was associated with Baal, or Bel (בעל), 'Lord'. The Merovingians were said to be 'Sorcerer Kings' who possessed great knowledge and magical powers. It is said to be the '13th Bloodline' of the Illuminati, and likely the one which The Antichrist would come from. The Merovingian dynasty was a Frankish dynasty and considered the first French royal house. The French word/name Le Bas/La Ba, 'the Damned', is explored in the book La Bas by J.K. Huysmans. Thus the name resumes the formula of the balance of the High and the Low, Fire and Water, Horus and Set and its manifestation as a 13 pointed star, or 13 unit hexagram. Thus, it is the Merovingian Antichrist in Revelation 13:13: "And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men." 


The bridge between worlds was severed when Lucifer 'fell' from his Throne, when the 'Lapsit Exilis' fell from the Crown. As Grant notes in Nightside of Eden, we didn't fall into the Abyss, we fell through it, and the veils or walls separating reality are traveled between via the Doors (ShORIM, 620) - if but one has the proper keys. These keys come through tests, trials, and purifications. The Bifrost or Antakarana, the rainbow bridge between worlds, is the qabalistic Ruach or Spirit connecting the 'Soul' to its Source which it has separated from in order to Be. This Triad is the Supernal Triad which unfolds into the Ruach. (The Supernal Triad reflects downward, then the middle 'Abstract' triad is paralleled by the 'Astral' Triad. These 6 are topped with Daath, the non-sephira that really creates the Tree in the first place as being the Black Hole of absence sucking The All from the Ain into Being. Daath is the Door of All Doors. It is also the Key of the Door in that the Key is the Knowledge of the Door's Way. Speaking frankly, the Door is symbolic of the Soul. The Key is symbolic of the Word of the Soul, or the Soul's destiny. 


Yog-Sothoth is also said to be the Gate and the Key of the Gate. Yog-Sothoth is said to be a 'congeries of 13 irridescent globes' and it is the 13th Zone which is the Doorway through Time (12, the Zodiac). 13 is the zone in the center of the Black Sun and 13 is the number of Spheres in Metatron's Cube. Though there are 11 zones (10 Spheres + Daath), there is another dual ring which balances the 11, so 11 + 2 = 13. Ain + The Tree (10) + Daath + Manifestation. 13 is Mem, The Hanged Man, Jesus, the Messenger of God who claimed to be the Alpha and the Omega (The Beginning and the End). He was the thirteenth along with 12 apostles. Mem is also Water, and Jesus also said 'Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in.' (Luke, 22:10). The Water is related to Aquarius who holds the pitcher of water, but Mem is associated with the element Water and Aquarius is attributed to He, The Star. 13 is the universal code of Transcendence. At the present time, Work is being done to transmute the ancient Tree of Life from 10 spheres (and Daath) to a 'restored' version of the Edenic state before the 'Fall'. This is to be achieved by a reformulation, along lines similar to those expressed in Achad's The Anatomy of the Body of God, along with the added work by Grant. The idea is to restore the Tree to the form known as the Metatron's Cube consisting of 13 spheres. 
The idea of The Aeon of Maat as presented by Achad, Grant, and others, is the same idea as the restoration of the final He of the Tetragrammaton, or the reparation of Malkuth and Daath. It should be seen from the keys presented in this publication that the Egg/107 is coterminous with the FINAL HE
From this egg proceeds the MA-ION, or the manifestation of THE AEON OF MAAT (=1313.)

Technically, when looked at '3-Dimensionally', the Metatron's Cube would consist of 17 spheres. 17 is very much a number relating to time, cycles, and dimensional matrixes. (See Break the Cycle.) Kenneth Grant also found 17 important enough to give a section on it in the end of the final book of his Typhonian Trilogy, The Ninth Arch. The importance here is that 17 is the Path of Zayin, the Sword, or Cleaver (figured as 7), and 17 is also the number of the letter Q, which in Hebrew is Qoph 'ק', which has the value of 100. We see here the underlying implication of the number 107 again. It is interesting to also note that the name Zayin, or Zain, is spelled in Hebrew 'ZIN', or זין. This was also the ancient god for the Moon, 'Zin', or 'Sin'. Remember that Qoph is attributed to The Moon card. This 'sword', 'zin', may be symbolic of a connection between the Kingdom of Malkuth and Yesod, the Foundation.




An important mathematical, and one could also say Masonic concept is the Pythagorean Triangle and the formulas surrounding it. In The True and Invisible Rosicrucian Order, Paul Foster Case attributes the three sides of the Pythagorean Triangle 3:4:5 to Osiris, Isis, and Horus. He says:
"The Pythagorean Triangle is related to alchemy for other reasons. Both Osiris the Father and Horus the Son were solar deities, and Isis the Mother was a moon goddess. Thus, the triangle represents the Great Work declared to be an operation of the sun and moon.
   Again the alchemists held that their work depended on three principles, which they named Mercury, Sulphur, and Salt. Of these, Mercury was the principle by whose aid the work of the Sun and Moon was performed, and without Mercury nothing could be done. The alchemical books also make it clear that Sulphur is the second principle, and that it therefore occupies an intermediate place between Mercury and Salt. Salt is also indicated as being the principle of fixation, just as Mercury is the volatile state of Matter. Hence, in our diagram (Figure 1) we assign Mercury to the upper segment of the Osiris line, Sulphur to the middle segment, and Salt to the lower segment.
   To the line corresponding to Isis, the mother, we have assigned four elements - Fire, Water, Air, and Earth. These elements, need we say, are not the ordinary physical things that go by their names. This the alchemists make clear my taking care always to speak of "our" Fire, or "our" Earth, just as they always speak of "our" Sulphur, "our" Gold, or "our" Mercury, in order to indicate that what they are so naming is always to be understood as being other than the common substance.
    Finally, to the hypotenuse of the triangle are attributed the ascending kingdoms of manifestation. Nearest the base and nearest to the element of "Earth" is the mineral kingdom. Above that is the vegetable kingdom, followed in order by the kingdoms of animal and human life. To the uppermost segment of the hypotenuse the fifth, or divine, kingdom is assigned. It is what Jesus called "the Kingdom of God." Hence, the hypotenuse of the triangle represents the progressive upward movement of life, corresponding to the old Qabalistic aphorism: "First the stone, then the plant, then the animal, then the man, and after man - the God." Horus the Son is the cosmic Life Spirit, ascending this evolutionary ladder of form, one kingdom emerging from another.
   This Pythagorean Triangle is remarkable, not only because of the properties of its three boundary lines, but also because of its interior angles. Of these, the first is the right angle of ninety degrees, formed by the junction of the descending line of Osiris to the horizontal base, or Isis. In Hebrew, 90 is the value of the word MIM, Mem (Water). Thus, the angle joining the lines of Osiris and Isis may be represented by the alchemical aphorism: "Our Sun and our Moon are conjoined in our Water." Paracelsus tells us: "The element water is the mother, seed, and the root of all minerals." In another place he writes: "The son of Hamuel says that the Stone of the philosophers is water coagulated, named in Sol and Luna. From this it is clearer than the sun that the matter of the Stone is nothing else but Sol and Luna."

This brings us back to Maat, the L, or 90° angle. 90, it should be known is the value of Tzaddi, which is also the 17th Hebrew letter. It is attributed to The Star card, and symbolizes Sirius the star-system nearest to ours. 90 is also the value of Πι, 'Pi', which itself is the 17th letter of the Greek alphabet. All of these concepts have to do with the formulas of 'this', or 'a' dimension, as well as those beyond (in this case Sirius.)

It should be noted here that 90 + 17 is 107, and the three formulas of the Father, Mother and Son in the Pythagorean Triangle also enumerate to 107 = AB (Father, 3) + AIMA (Mother, 52) + BN (Son, 52).
Thus, yet again, 'It's all in the Egg'! Maat is thus the measurer, the Matrix or womb from which the Egg comes.


Another point relevant to this writing is The 8-fold Seal of Immortality. In the Ordo Aurum Solis, the 8 pointed star is used as the basis of their magick known as the 'Ogdoadic Tradition'. It is related to the Signet of Melchizedek, whose name means MLKI 'King', of TzEDEQ 'Righteousness, or Justice' - 'King of Righteousness'. The Hebrew form מַלְכִּי־צֶדֶֿק equals 294 (the number of my name in Jewish Gematria). Melchizedek and Metatron have been associated with one another quite often, and they are indeed quite similar in a few respects. Something to note here is that 8, which is a symbol of the infinity, also forms the Chaos Star, also known as the Star of the Magi, and the Star of Ilu. The 8 directions, surrounding the 9th point in the middle reflect inward ('self reflection') and thus 8 + 9 = 17, the number mentioned about. This 'implodes' and becomes 107, when it is realized that the 17 (points in the swastika, spheres in the 3D Metatron's Cube, and Tzaddi/The Star card) are unified (Γιογκα, =107 'yoga', 'union'.) The connection between the 8 and the 0 has already been elucidated in this blog, but it should be noted that the 'yoke', or 'center' of the Egg is the Μηδεν, 'Zero' point (-lessness). The Egg and the Metatron's Cube are one and the same as well, therefore it's appearance in physical form on April 2nd of 2011 was a manifestation of the Gnosis of Maat/Metatron/Melchizedek which led to my discovering of the keys presented here. The Egg is the Bornless One, Harpocrates, which in Greek as 888 is equal to ΜΕΤΑΚΥΒΟΝ, the 'Meta' Cube, or Metatron's Cube - also of course, aligning with Ιηςους, Jesus. 888 is also MANIFESTATION, the 13 letter word that contains the secret cipher of MA-ION. Thus, we see that these codes are in order and succinct in their interrelation numerically and conceptually. (I will be providing the links to the calculated formula for each example soon.)

There is much Gnosis that can be gained from further research into these subjects and codes. This work may be ongoing as a sort of rough-draft version of a book I am working on to collate all the information in this blog, along with other things I haven't been able to include.

Break the Cycle


     Furthering the web that has thus far been spun, I want to go into a subject that has been expanded upon very little since it's appearance in the 1999 publication Beyond the Mauve Zone by Kenneth Grant. This article is in regard to chapter 6 of that book, The Rite of the K'rla Cell, which deals with a broad array of subjects which can be quite difficult to keep up with if not familiar with the previous material in Grant's trilogies.

      The word 'K'rla' is not mentioned anywhere previously in the Typhonian Trilogies, or anywhere else to my knowledge. Evidently, Grant gets it from the work of Jeffrey Evans (Frater Khephra-Mâ-Åst - 481) and Ruth Keenan-Evans (Soror Maiat - 352) whose work, Liber 251, is briefly mentioned and hitherto unpublished. At the outset of the chapter, Grant mentions that the word K'rla is suggestive of the Tibetan khorlo, which means 'wheel', 'round', 'samsara', and is the Tibetan word for the Sanskrit chakra. It will be seen that this is more than a mere suggestion.


"The Evans-Keenan Rite here described provides a simple method - simple, that is, in regard to components - for contact with non-terrestrial entities via the cosmo-sexual magick of the Ophidian Current. As in the case of the Sri Chakra the K'rla Cell is, fundamentally, a battery of limitless potential. A cognate rite of some antiquity survives in the Tibetan Khorlo Rite, and the names of both of these procedures suggest an affinity of the methods used."

     Grant goes on to say; "The nature of these methods is best understood by a qabalistic analysis of the designation of K'rla. K'rla has the numerical value of 251, which is the number of VRIHL, the 'Magical Force' associated with 'The Coming Race', or Aeon, about which Bulwer Lytton wrote in his novel of that name. Vrihl, or Uriel, was the Angelic Name worn as a lamen by the Mage Abramelin during his transaction with spiritual beings. VRIHL is a phonetic permutation of HRILIU, an expression signifying, according to Crowley, the "shrill scream of orgasm", or the metaphysical ecstasy that accompanies congress with non-human entities." This shows undoubtedly the connection between the K'rla 'cell' and the 'zero-point' energy field which the early Vril Society, a subset of the Thule Society, were working on at least as far back as the late 1800's.
As a 'battery of limitless potential', the K'rla Cell is basically a form of the Vrihl/Vril 'light force'. Uriel is rendered as VRIHL via U=Vav / E=Hé, but in its original Hebrew form it is אוריאל, i.e. Auriel, which means 'God is my Light', again referencing the Aur, or light. This light is the Azoth, Astral Light, Chi, Ojas, etc., that tenuous substance which cannot be measured with conventional means, but nonetheless can be encountered and worked with internally if the 'vessel' is finely tuned enough through alchemical and mystical exercise. HRILIU has similar undertones as it has been defined as "the very fabric of existence, the currents of energy that are luminous and void", and "metaphysical ekstasy". (See Words of Power.) This is Ekstasis itself, which literally means "to be or stand outside oneself, a removal to elsewhere" from ek- "out," and stasis "a stand, or a standoff of forces".

      Concerning the 'contact with non-terrestrial entities', further analysis of the qabalistic weight of K'rla shows that 251 is also the number of ANNADOTUS, 'the Repulsive One' associated with Oannes, God of the Deep. REMU, the 'City of Fish' mentioned in the Book of the Dead. OTzADAGOWAH, Ossadagowah, mentioned in the Derleth recension of the Necronomicon Gnosis as the parent of “a frightful spirit as came down from ye stars”. (See The Lurker at the Threshold.) 251 is also, coincidentally, the number of ALIEN ABDUCTION as well as ALIEN CONTACTEE. This shows the undeniable position of this number as a key of the Outer Ones. Grant also goes on to note that K'rla rendered with a Qoph instead of Kaph brings it to 331, the number of Αλλος, 'other', or 'alien', which I also have enumerating ALIEN VISITATION,  A WAR ENGINE, THE DOUBLE WANDED ONE, and בחטא איש, 'Man of Sin'.
     Grant also mentions that in Lamaism: The Buddhism of Tibet by Laurence Waddell there is mention that it was in the year 331AD "there fell from heaven several sacred objects, including the Om Mani formula inscribed on a stone"...'Probably the Chintamani Stone or wish-fulfilling talisman mentioned in ancient Sanskrit works.'
     He goes on to say: "This formula of the Jewel in the Lotus describes the cosmic vibration which stimulates the Sri Chakra to flower in the fullness of total manifestation. 331 is the number of ShAL, 'a chink in the ground', a 'crack or crevice', which may be compared with Sheol, 'hell', and ShIAC (331), the Aramaic form of the Sanskrit Patala, 'hell'. ShAL is the orifice whence the oracle proceeded, as at Delphi, Dodona, etc. K'rla thus suggests the Deep Ones, the Oracle, and the power-zone of the Kaula Circle described by the Sri Chakra." Thus, the 'bottomless pit', or the Abyss is both within (infernal) and without (supernal), (or which ever way you want to view the termina. 

      The Jewel in the Lotus can be thought of as the interplay of Hadit (the Jewel) and Nuit (the Lotus), and glyphed as the ☉. The Jewel, or Mani, is the Stone, and the Lotus, or Padme is also termed by Frater Achad as the Mani-O, coterminous with the Ma-Ion - the ends of manifestation. The ends of manifestation are the Inner and Outer nodes which when united dissolve the limitations of differentiation and become the singular and total Being that cannot be numbered or symbolized. The K'rla Cell is thus the awakened or reborn spiritual Light, naturally 'alien' or 'other' in respect to its mundane original form. This can be confused with other 'others', but to adequately communicate with such 'others', the True Self must first be attained. This is why it is imperative that the initiate reaches the level of Tiphareth (Sol) and achieves 'Knowledge and Conversation' with ones Holy Guardian Angel, or Higher Self, before invoking or evoking entities such as the Goetia, for until then the initiate is a shell in which such entities can infiltrate and take hold.


      This is the 17th Kala which has no distinction. 17 is also the number of units in the swastika, the symbolic form of the whirling motion of creation, also used by the Vril and Nazi occultists. In the glossary of Beyond the Mauve Zone, Grant mentions the 17th Kala:



Kala (S): Time, period, section or part. The substance that reifies and sets limits. 
The process of conceptualization. There are fifteen kalas of the lunar cycle which 
culminate in Sodashi, the sixteenth and 'secret' secretion. There is a further or seventeenth
kala that pertains to the Aeon of Zain. It is inexpressible in verbal form.



     As has been stated in The Color of Time, the word 'kala' is a division of space-time, and is closely connected with the words color and calendar. The kalas and the swastika imply the Wheel of Time, or in terms of the Tarot, The Wheel of Fortune, and this is important because remember that Khorlo means 'wheel', or 'cycle'. It is further relevant that the word CIRCLE itself also equals 251. Note also that the same number for KHORLO, 395, is that of the SARVA-MANDALA, which is the Great Golden Egg from which the Creator deity Brahma was born.
("Sarva-mandala (Sanskrit) Sarva-maṇḍala [from sarva all, complete + maṇḍala globe, orb] The complete globe or orb; hence the Egg of Brahma or the universe, applicable to any of the numerous Eggs of Brahma, whether a galaxy, sun, planet, or even a nebula or comet.")

     Crowley, in Liber 777, also notes that the Hebrew 'ChVG' which means 'circle', or 'orbit' equals 17. It is within these paradoxical and seemingly unattainable and incomprehensible vistas that the true essence of Magick, and 'God' itself is to be found, and that is why I am working to better explain such 'concepts'. Outside the boundaries of the limitations, indeed 'outside the box', are where the real treasure lies. I have noted previously how the X in the O is a symbol for not only 'the Mark of the Beast', but also the entrance to the Inner Realm of the Temple. As the symbol for Terra, ⊕, the X (or +; i.e. the Cross, or Tau) marks the spot where the Treasure lies, as Kether resides in Malkuth and vice versa. This symbol is the unbroken/unopened swastika itself. 

     The word "swastika" comes from the Sanskrit svastika - "su" meaning "good" or "auspicious," "asti" meaning "to be," and "ka" as a suffix. The swastika literally means "to be good". Or another translation can be made: "swa" is "higher self", "asti" meaning "being", and "ka" as a suffix, so the translation can be interpreted as "being with higher self". Though this is the original meaning of this symbol, the Nazi's inverted its meaning for malevolent purposes. This symbol is very ancient and generally refers to the whirling motion of creation, or life.  The symbol of the Vril Society, however, was not so much the swastika as it was the Black Sun, which has similar connotations, although instead of being the wheel of light it is the wheel of anti-light/anti-matter, more correctly associated with the black hole. 

     The Wheel of Fortune is atu X, the number of completion and totality. 10 is the ☉ in that it is the lingam and the yoni, or the phallus and kteis. There is an inner mystery here because the phallus and the kteis conceal the formula of Kaph, which this atu is attributed. Kaph is spelled כָּף, i.e. K+P. The Wheel with its central axle is the ☉. Kaph means 'hand', or 'cup', or that which holds, and it is the wheel of dharma, or the dharmacakra,  that 'holds' every distinct facet of being in its place. It is highly notable then that DHARMA also equals 251.
The number of Kaph is 820, which is the number of זמן (Time, 747) plus החלל (Space, 73), i.e. Space-Time. 820 is also the number of Η Σφαιρα, 'The Sphere', which is the circle extended into another dimension. It is also the sum of 1 through 40, 40 being the number of Mem, the 'waters' (of manifestation).



     But I digress. The K'rla Cell is not definitely defined in Beyond the Mauve Zone, it is only hinted at as being a formula for congress with extra-terrestrials, but the methods are left obscure. In Peter Levenda's book The Dark Lord: H.P. Lovecraft, Kenneth Grant, and the Typhonian Tradition in Magic, the K'rla Cell is mentioned on page 302:
  
"The very word we use in the modern age for referring to otherworldly ideas, planes, levels is “astral,” which means “starry.” It is the Starry Wisdom cult of Lovecraft's story “The Haunter of the Dark.” We hear talk of the “astral plane” and the “astral body” and rarely stop to consider what that means. It is the astral self that is indestructible, that is capable of doing the kind of time and space traveling that both Grant and Lovecraft describe. And entire cults were built around its cultivation and use. One of Grant's power-zones, the K'rla Cell, was designed with just that idea in mind. He describes it in Beyond the Mauve Zone, and tells of the intention of its members to contact Azathoth and Yog-Sothoth, both Lovecraftian entities, and to use “psychosexual dynamics concealed in the Necronomicon.” This group eventually identified the star Betelgeuse as the home of the Elder Gods, and a black hole somewhere in the constellation Sagittarius as the home of the Great Old Ones."

     He is effectively equating the K'rla Cell with a form of the astral body. Analyzing the word as two separate words, KR and LA, we see that כר means 'know', 'be familiar', and לא means 'not', 'nothing', or 'absence' (Nox). Therefore, K'rla can mean 'the Knowledge of Nothing', nothing being the Zero Point, or background of manifestation. KR itself equals 220, the number of Liber AL, as well as NPhILIM, 'the Great Old Ones', from whence AL was transmitted. LA is 31, the key number of Liber AL. Thus, again we see that this text is indeed 'forbidden wisdom', the wisdom from 'beyond', or outside. In order to apprehend it, one must transcend oneself and 'become as God' by aligning and integrating all aspects of ones own being and taking great step of standing beyond within-without. Know that AL is one of the most ancient names for 'God'.

      I have already discussed the 'broken circle' in Dragon Blood, which is the formula of ShTN (359), but Grant mentions this formula in regards to the K'rla Cell which is important in this analysis:
"There are further links between the New Isis Workings and those of the K'rla Cell. The name Isis denotes a Stone Throne, or 'Seat'. The name ShTN (Shaitan) is in fact our word Stone, and Set has the meaning of a 'standing stone'. The number of ShTN, 359, is one less than the perfect or unbroken circle (360 degrees). The formula of Shaitan therefore indicates the 'broken circle'. [Cf. The Necronomicon (Schl. ed.), p. 16: "a broken line provides means of entrance for those Outside, for a broken star is the Gate of Ganzir, the Gate of Death, the Gate of the Shadows and the Shells".] This is the formula, par excellence, of the Typhonian Gnosis because it permits of both ingress and egress of Forces outside the Circles of Time. The mystery of the break in the circle is the mystery at the heart of the magick of the New Aeon and it is manifested in blood, the outpouring of the Circle (yoni/lotus), of the sacred plant that flowers only in moonlight, [Evans notes that "this fantastic plant is the legendary MARIPOSA, said to grow in Tibet. It is supposed to be a cure for the curse of lycanthropy. By Greek gematria, Mariposa = 502, twice 251, or two K'rla Cells 'linked', glossed by the equation 251 + 251)".] on the fabled Plateau of Lêng."

      So the 'hole', or opening in the circle is equated with Daath, the 'דעת'/'Dot', as I also made apparent in my previous article. Ganzir is 'The Gate of the Shadows and the Shells' according to the Necronomicon, and "The Gate that leads to the seven steps into the Frightful Pit and the shrieking of the God on the Throne of Darkness". The sum of the Tetraktys; Kether-620 + Chokmah-73 + Binah-67 + Daath-474 = 1234, the number of THE PRINCE OF DARKNESS and AZRAEL-THE ANGEL OF DEATH) Note that Azrael is often connected with Uriel. Ganzir equals 271, the number of NHIRV (Lux), AVR NVGH, 'shining light'. Being the Gate of 'Death', or outrance, and equal to the Light, it can be thought of as the Source beyond the seven gates. Referring to a formula received by a priestess of the New Isis Lodge of the with the same number, Grant states that "[M'rla] {=271}, therefore, glyphs the light of Consciousness (LVX) shining in the Darkness (NOX) of the Tunnels of Set.

      Relevant to this analysis of the K'RLA formula and transmissions from the Beyond, Grant also mentions that K'rla was "adumbrated in the Workings of the New Isis Lodge, and even earlier, for in 1943 were received by Aossic The Chronicles of Kr[alnia]." Kralnia, or KRLNIA as he has it in The Ninth Arch, was one of Grant's magical names as far back as 1939. It is then even more significant that there exists a ufological document known as 'The Krill Papers' which tells of an alleged 'extraterrestrial biological entity' who gave its name as KRLL, or Krill, which stayed behind on Earth after a race of extraterrestrials met secretly with the United States government in the 60's. While it is pretty obvious that the text is a sham, some of the information it contains may be factual, and the name Krll itself is highly suspicious considering the forgoing material. Remember that Grant often references how works of fiction can sometimes, intentionally or unintentionally on the part of the author, contain gems of truth in them. The stories of Lovecraft being one of the best examples.

Deeper analysis of this enigmatic chapter, we see Grant following up about 'M'rla':
In the change from chandra bindu, represented by the letter 'M', to the letter 'K', the glyph of the Goddess, may be seen the flowering of supreme potential into full manifestation. Frater Achad suggested that the first and last verses of Nuit's chapter in AL point directly at Ma-Ion, the Lesser Cycle of the Aeon of Perfection ushered in in 1948. Likewise, one 'end' of K'rla is Kr, the other, La, whereas previously it had been Mr and La. The end is constant only when it is 'not' (La). It is plain, therefore, how the Nu-Isis and K'rla Cell Workings have produced an operation formula for the manifestation - at the end of an aeon - of the full Sri Chakra represented by the Goddess whose bija-mantra is Kr-M (KRIM), i.e., Kali.

The Evans-Keenan Cell Workings in the Tunnel of Niantiel established contact with the Old Ones in the specific form of KRLAMKR. This formula has the numerical index of 511, or 93 plus 418, thereby revealing at its heart the 93 Current - Aiwass. 511 is the number of the "cyclopean and many-columned Y'hanthlei - lair of the Deep Ones". (The Shadow Over Innsmouth [Lovecraft], p. 185) It is also the number of Heqat, a form of Hecate. Significantly, the formula KR (220) + LAM (71) + KR (220) also equals 511, and thus exhibits the thread of continuity with the Book of the Law, thereby substantiating Crowley's claim that AL contains the "supreme spells" or spellings. And this is does, for the "four letters, O, A, U, M [i.e., the Pranava Gk. 'ΟΑΥΜ'] add up to 511, the number of K'r-LAM-K'r". [Private communication dated December 15, 1990] As a final seal upon a remarkable chain of identities, Thomas Inman gives 511 as the value of ASNTh, which translates as "dedicated to Neith". [Ancient Faiths Embodied in Ancient Names (Inman)]. Note also that the K and the M (KA-rla and MA-rla) indicate the 'Sixtystone', a potent talisman of the Qliphoth. [See Outside the Circles of Time (Grant), p. 215.] These notions combine to demonstrate how the K'rla Cell is founded upon the Typhonian Gnosis.

     This shows the connection between the K'rla Cell and the entity, or if you prefer, ophidian archetype, LAM. He goes on to say:
"The number 291 [the number of Kr'LAM and Mnar, Mnar being a Lovecraftian form of the Mauve Zone] signifies the ARTz (earth) of Malkuth, i.e., the plane of manifestation. The vibration of the earth seed-mantra LAM, [Lam is the bija mantra of the Muladhara Chakra, the abode of the Fire Snake.] manifesting in the Muladhara Chakra, flashes from that chakra to the brain of the priestess functioning as the K'rla Cell. This is the formula of the psychosexual dynamics concealed in the Necronomicon...
...Jeffrey Evans explains succinctly the rôle of the K'rla Cell in the Typhonian complex:

It seems clear to me that, in some mysterious way, 666 [Crowley], 
H.P.L. [Lovecraft], AChAD [Jones], 718 [i.e. Aossic Aiwass], and now 
481 [Kephra-mâ-Åst] - and certain others, notably the Dogon of Africa - 
have tuned into a current which is emanating from that region of the Celestial Sphere. 
My own 'pet theory' at this point in my career, is that it represents the rudiments of 
what will, in future, be our (i.e. humanity's) 'link' in the group of already existing 
telepathic life-forms in the Universe. Without the Typhonian Tradition such a link
will be night impossible; for as long as we do not learn to think outside of ourselves
and our own forms, as long as we continue to think in anthropomorphic terms, we 
will not be able to stand the inflix of sheer alienness which such telepathic contact
necessarily implies.

The region of the Celestial Sphere alluded to above is inclusive of the stars Pollux, Capella, Aldebaran, Rigel, Betelgeuze, Sothis, and Procyon."



     Grant mentions the letter M multiple times noting its connection with the Elder Gods:
"The letter 'M', the key vibration of the plane of the Elder Gods, is represented mythologically as the sea-goat, Makara, or as the crocodile, the beast of the waters."
and
"The kala of Ibt al Ghauzi manifests directly the vibration symbolized by the letter 'M' which is the root vibration of the Elder Gods located in that star".

     The letter 'M' is the chandrabindu, which literally means 'moon-dot'. It is the dot or bindu in the pranava ॐ.
     It is the nasally ng sound/vibration, and in its deepest aspect, the space that the Door (4) leads to. In the case of cosmic forces, another dimension. In relation to the mantra Krim mentioned above, Grant says: "Krim is the bija-mantra of the Black Goddess, Kali, who grants Liberation (Kaivalya), and the letter M, or chandra-bindu, is the root mantra = 30". Even though M as Mem technically equals 40, the number 30 is here in its place for its similarity to ॐ, and the fact that M is the mid-way, the middle-waters of Balance which Lamed (30) symbolizes. "Om is the dynamic formula of the K'rla Cell resulting from the application of Restriction, [The reflex of Liberation.] typified by the Priestess in the bondage of the mummy-swathings, [The silence of the Death Posture, or Magical Sleep.] combined with the feminine karezza."

     There is some confusion here since 'Ibn Gazi', is the powder mentioned in the Necronomicon which, when ignited, enables the Old Ones to manifest in the present universe, or 'Universe A', i.e. the waking state. The point is that we are dealing here with a particular form of magickal manifestation, the vehicle of which being the K'rla Cell. Thus, Grant says: "The Great Old Ones, the Ophidian counterparts of the Elder Gods, will manifest through the K'rla Cell." Further on, Grant identifies Ibt al Ghauzi with Betelgeuze, saying "According to Howard Phillips Lovecraft, Betelgeuze (Ibt Al Ghauzi) is the home of the Elder Gods; and according to Evans "that Star has decidedly become the focus of the K'rla Cell". It should be known that the Arabic name for Betelgeuze is إبط الجوزاء, 'Ibet al-Jauza', often translated as 'Armpit of the Central One', but it is more correct as 'The Arm of Orion' (the Giant). (See etymology.) Going on, Grant says: "'He [Evans] adds that the notion "that there is a K'rla Cell emanating from the region of Ibt al Ghauzi is not so far fetched'. This stellar complex is opposite a supposed Black Hole in Sagittarius, near the centre of the galaxy, and Evans speculates that if Betelgeuze is the home of the Elder Gods, may not the Black Hole be the home of the Old Ones?"

      Now that these two similar concepts (Ibn Gazi and Ibt al Ghauzi) have been distinguished, we can go back to an important piece in this puzzle. "It is therefore possible to understand how Jeffrey Evans has unveiled the inner meaning of AL.I.8 and 9: "The Khabs is in the Khu, no the Khu in the Khabs. Worship then the Khabs, and behold my light shed over you"... The Khu, or Magical Will, is the product, not the producer, of the Sacred Ash. This reveals an entirely new mode of magick which is in precise alignment with New Isis and with the doctrine of Maat."

     Grant notes that "The functioning of the K'rla Cell chimes with Dali's sensation of wearing his own skeleton outside of him". This is interesting, since he is saying that the K'rla Cell is an inner rather than outer vehicle. I have had two significant magical experiences with a skeleton in my initiation. First, after having unintentionally chanced upon obtaining a copy of the book Liber Falxifer on the Holy Day of San La Muerte, August 15th, 2011, I sought contact with the Saint and had a vision of a large black skeleton which I seemed to be a part of, as if I was within it's empty womb. I took this to be a sign that I was indeed close with the patron Saint of Death. Numerous 'synchronicities' regarding myself and the Necrosophic/Death current have manifested throughout my life, and I find it highly significant that my very name, which both begins with the letter M (13) and has 13 letters enumerates to 1331. 
     Second, while having an LSD experience around 2012, I had another vision that my bones were glowing neon and that my blood had congealed as if I were effectively dead but alive at the same time. Every thought I had and every second that passed became as a pump in the veins of the heart-beat of God/Being and space-time imploded into the Eternal Moment of All. It was quite an experience. Note that the Hebrew word for 'Death' is מת, 'MT', which is phonetically similar to Maat, the Goddess presiding over the underworld and the souls awaiting judgment. Going back to the material on the letter 'M', I want to quote Blavatsky's The Secret Doctrine, because it is very interesting and should be of note here for many reasons. Remember that 'M' is the chandrabindu, or Moon-dot, and that there are 13 lunations per year.

      "...The Lotus and Water are among the oldest symbols, and in their origin are purely Aryan, though they became common property during the branching off of the Fifth Race. Let us give an example. Letters, as much as numbers, were all mystic, whether in combination or each taken separately. The most sacred of all is the letter M. It is both feminine and masculine, or androgyne, and is made to symbolize the water, the great deep, in its origin. It is mystic in all the languages, Eastern and Western, and stands as a glypg for the waves, thus: ♒. In the Aryan Esotericism, as in the Semitic, this letter has always stood for the waters; e.g., in Sanskrit Makara- the tenth sign of the Zodiac - means a crocodile, or rather an aquatic monster associated always with water. The letter MA is equivalent to, and corresponds with, the number 5 - composed of a binary, the symbol of the two sexes separated, and of the ternary, symbol of the third life, the progeny of the binary. This, again, is often symbolized by a Pentagon, the latter being a sacred sign, a divine Monogram.
Maitreya is the secret name of the Fifth Buddha, and the Kalki-Avatara of the Brahmans - the last Messiah who will come at the culmination of the Great Cycle. It is also the initial letter of the Greek Metis or Divine Wisdom; of Memrah, the "word" or Logos; and of Mithras (the Mihr), the Monad, Mystery. All these are born in, and from, the great Deep, and are the Sons of Maya - the Mother; in Egypt, Mut, in Greece Minerva (divine wisdom); of Mary, or Miriam, Myrrha, etc. the Mother of the Christian Logos, and of Maya, the mother of Buddha. Madhava and Madhavi are the titles of the most important gods and goddesses of the Hindu Pantheon. Finally, Mandala is in Sanskrit "a circle," or an orb (the ten divisions of the Rig-Veda). The most sacred names in India begin with this letter generally - from Mahat, the first manifested intellect, and Mandara, the great mountain used by the gods to churn the Ocean, down to Mandakini, the heavenly Ganga (Ganges), Manu, etc., etc."

      M is the formula of manifestation, and when consciously directed under Will, becomes a force of Magick.

"The Magical Numbers of the Agents which denote the terrestrial operators of the K'rla Cell are Freater 481 (Jeffrey Evans), and Soror 352 (Ruth Keenan):
481 = Ibt al Ghauzi (Betelgeuse)
352 = Al-Haldah (Sagittarius)
352 is the number of TANA [Gk. Τανα], the leaves of which plant revive the mummy in Amenta. The mummy, or K'rla Cell, is thereby equated with the black hole, or, in Kamite Terms, with Amenta:
The centre of the Galaxy ecliptically is toward Sagittarius.
Sagittarius is opposite Gemini... and as Ibt al Ghauzi is the 
home of the Elder Gods, may not the home of the Old Ones be
located somewhere in the region of Sagittarius? Perhaps the
Black Hole itself is a Gateway to the home of the Old Ones. This
would mean that beyond  the Black Hole (or within it) lies "Ubbo
Sathla... that unforgotten source whence came those daring to
oppose the Elder Gods who ruled in Betelgeuze".

     Evans identifies 'Ubbo Sathla' as "a glyph for the centre of our own galaxy, and its hidden door to our own forgotten source. Out of what we have come, into that shall we return at the time of Mahapralaya [The Aeon of Zain] when Shakti assumes the form of Bindu".
In the Necronomicon mythos, Ubbo Sathla is described as the source of the forces that fought against the Elder Gods who ruled from Betelgeuze. These forces, the Great Old Ones, were directed by Azathoth and Yog-Sothoth. 
Jeffrey Evans declares that the K'rla Cell Working shows
a definite orientation perpendicular to the axis of the Earth, 
toward Ibt Al Ghauzi at first, and now toward the Galactic 
Centre. This creates the effect of the Earth as a spinning cross;
and when facing West, or contra the direction of the elliptical
constellations, the Pole Star is on the right hand, and on the left 
hand is the black void of space around which the circle Canopus
and Sothis, the Southern 'Pole-Stars'. It is though a link has been
made:
Ubbo Sathla ↔ Ibt Al Ghauzi
...and it seems that the K'rla Cell needed to make the contact
with the Old Ones through the Elder Gods at first, before making 
direct contact with the Old Ones Themselves.
Evans states categorically that "the formula of the K'rla Cell, the function of which is to serve as a vehicle of communion between worlds, takes the form of KR-LAM-KR".


     This is interesting, considering LAM is also said to be the link between the Aeons of Horus and Maat. Horus is the Lord of War, and being a large red star and part of Orion the warrior it resumes the martial aspect. On the other hand, In Outside the Circles of Time, Nema is quoted as equating Maat with the Black Hole. The ancient Egyptians also revered Orion as can be seen by the alignment of the Pyramids of Giza with Orion's belt, and the name of the city Cairo itself means 'Mars'. The Black Hole being equated with Amenta, or the place of the dead, is then rightly aligned with Maat who resides there with her weightless feather of Truth. Thus:

"The operation of the Cell by the Old Ones and their Agents comports a sexual formula for the entifying of Lam, or the embodiment of Lam in the Aeon of Zain. In order to explain this formula it is necessary to place on record that an agent of of the Great Old Ones known as KR-AL-NIA-Z [An avatar of Aossic] initiated the Current of Zain in 1939 e.v., when the present author adopted the magical name, Kralnia-Z. [This name was taken spontaneously as a non-de-plume in connection with a novel he was writing in his 'teens.]
The Kr'la Cell, the AL-LA (Horus-Set Current), and the Aeon of Zain, are all explicit in the name Kralnia-Z. A profoundly subtle cosmic telepathy from future time therefore occured in connection with this Initiation. It is perfectly in order, therefore, that in another context Jeffrey Evans has explained why an Aeon of Silence (Z-ain ion) was needed before the fill flowering of this interstellar contact could be achieved: "The being, LAM... is an Avatar of Silence", or in the Aeon of Zain; and Kralnia-Z was its reflex in a temporal and mundane context."

     Another personal addition to this lineage are all the subtle hints I have hitherto made about my own position in this chain. The year 1992 in which I was born was 44 years after The Incoming of the Aeon of Maat, which itself was 44 years after The Inauguration of the Aeon of Horus. 44 is the number of ChVL, the Phoenix and 88 is the number of KHABS, the Star, or Star-child. My Initation into the Draconian Mysteries began in 2011 with the reception of a Talisman of Ma-Ion in the form of an obsidian egg precisely on April 2, 107 years since 1904 (Anno Heru), and 63 years since 1948. (107 = MAION, BITzH, 'Egg', OVAL [AL.II.76], 76 + 31.) My initials are M.A.L., the reflex, or terrestrial manifestation of LAM. Additionally, my name in Greek qabalah is 481 as well. This leads me to wonder if my Magical Work was adumbrated far before I was even born, and if perhaps I myself am a modern avatar for the same Current those before have been the vessels of. My Work will speak for itself. 

     The date April 2 comes up again in this chapter in regard to Mr. Evans as well:
"A curious connection exists between the chronologies of the K'rla Cell Workings and the inception of the Aeon of Maat in its Lesser or 'Daughter' Cycle (Ma-Ion), as announced by Frater Achad on April 2, 1948. The date which Evans gives for his 'Magical impregnation' by influences from Outside is April 2, 1984. This also dates his focusing his focusing on Halley's comet. He later realised that in the year 1948, that "comet reversed its direction just as Achad had reversed the direction of the paths". It is surely significant that the difference between 48 and 84 (another reversal), 36, yields (as 3 x 6) the number of Isis and the female pentagram."

Note the many instances of reversals, the supreme formula of The Dual One.

     Of great importance in this analysis is that Grant mentions the significance of Phi (Φ), which can be seen as another form of the Phallus and Yoni. The Phi proportion, or Golden Mean is found all throughout nature and manifests from the Zero Point center of creation. 

"In the Evans-Keenan Cult the Greek letter Phi (value 500) denotes the K'rla Current. Phi  is special among numbers for its reflex is minus one, the 'I', or ego. The full numeration of Phi (i.e. the letter-name Phi) [Ph=I. Phi is the basis of the square root of Five, the number most closely associated with the Great Old Ones.] is 510, a value of ThNIN, Draco, the sea monster or serpent which gives its name to the Ophidian Current. It is also the number of KRONOS [Κρονος], the alchemical ilus or primal slime which forms the basis of the Great Work. It is the chaos out of which arises the astral shadow of Horus, the shadow-twin, Set, whose name is one with the 'seat', or 'foundation' (Yesod) of the Tree of Life. Set is identical with Isis or whom he is the child or manifestation in the realm of Amenta. AL.III.74 declares "...the sun of midnight is ever the son", and the midnight sun is Khephra. Evans, whose motto is Kephra-mâ-Åst [I.e., "that which comes into being out of Ast (Isis)" and who copulates with his own shadow in order to create.] writes "Like Kephra I have produced an astral shade with which to unite for Creation". He thus assumes the god-form of the Beetle that is recurrently born of Isis to create another Day."

     Of note here is that 510 is the number of of Ισκιος, 'shadow or shade', Νυξ, (Nyx) the God of Night, STAR, ASTRONOMY, חלומותיי, 'Dream' or 'Vision', and The K’rla Gnosis. This essentially shows the Stellar nature of this Tradition, and the truly Ageless Wisdom that is ever present if one could but see it. The formula of Kephra, the Scarab in Atu XVIII, is that of 'seeing in the dark', and is subsumed under the Hebrew letter 'Qoph', meaning 'back of the head'. KPRA = 301, the number of Σεληνη, 'Selene, the Moon', as well as ASTRAL, YOG-SOTOT, and AOSSIQAOΣIK. 301 is also אש, 'Fire'. Kephra symbolizes the renewal of the Light, and thus the Immortal Soul. The cyclical terrestrial, lunar, and solar cycles must be shown against the background of the stellar cycles, the aeons of the Great Old Ones, for their full manifestation to be seen in the light of their place amongst the infinite expanse of The Queen of Night, Our Lady Nuit. 

"In concert with the formula of Khephra-Mâ-Åst and the shadow (Set), Evans suggests that the mysterious cypher contained in AL.II.76 may be the veritable formula for giving birth to a star-child.
It should be evident from the material presented in these trilogies that Crowley, Leadbeater, Parsons, Evans, and others, known and unknown, have been attempting to utilise such a formula. The inevitable question is surely: has such a magical child been brought to birth within the current Aeon? Crowley may not have failed, for the Star evisaged by Cameron Parsons [See Hecate's Fountain {1992}, Part I, ch.3.] yet struggles in the birth pangs of an aeon that is nameless, perhaps because the child of its bowels has not yet emerged. Perhaps Evans, Nema, and others are labouring to bring forth not a single entity but a composite stellar complex of Powers, such as Lovecraft may have glimpsed in the shadowy gulfs of dream. The Great Old Ones, the Deep Ones, the Outer Ones: may not they be entities or gods such as those described by Crowley as "certain vast 'stars' (or aggregates of experience)? [See the Introduction to The Book of the Law (Crowley), O.T.O., London, 1938.) 


     When all of this is fathomed and comprehended, it becomes apparent that something of vast, cosmic proportions has been and is going on and this planet is not quite as insignificant as are so often led to believe. Something so monumental that very few will have the requisite degree of psycho-spiritual compatibility to not only to carry forward the lineage, but even to withstand the implications this knowledge brings. Humanity at large is incapable even of withstanding its own baggage, so to speak, so something of this magnitude is necessarily left to those 'special' individuals who have taken it up as their duty to carry the weight. The crumbling of society and its environmental impact on the planet are all a part of the influx of energies that we have, in some cases, blindly evoked. The only reprisal for those with any inkling of an ability to withstand such effects is to become aware of their innate abilities, and "renew contact [with their HGA] in each incarnation in order to maintain continuity of magical consciousness in the waking-state." (BTMZ, pg. 145.). Only then can the true Heirs rightly take back control over the guidance of humanity and push us back towards a state of benevolent harmony with nature.
