Dwtw:
The enigma of the Cipher in Liber AL 2:76 may be approached with geometry.
Verses 75 and 76 state the problem, and tell us what we are supposed to “listen to”:
Aye! listen to the numbers & the words:
4 6 3 8 A B K 2 4 A L G M O R 3 Y X 24 89 R P S T O V A L.
We take the value of the ‘numbers’ (143)
and the ‘words’, i.e., the letters in the Cipher (208)
and make these the sides of a right triangle. The hypotenuse is then 252.41
Thus, the instruction indicates the categories and components of the Cipher
to be solved with this geometry, using Trigrammaton gematria equivalents:
252 = the numbers & the words:
143 = 4 + 6 + 3 + 8 + 2 + 4 + 3 + 24 + 89
208 = A+B+K+A+L+G+M+O+R+Y+X+R+P+S+T+O+V+A+L
The circumference of the circumcircle of this triangle exactly matches
the gematria of the entire verse 2:3, where ‘circumference’ is mentioned:
793 = In the sphere I am everywhere the centre,
as she, the circumference, is nowhere found.
Within this circumference, the diameter also has a poignant match, identifying it with Had:
252 = The Manifestation of Nuit
Litlluw
Omega Logion 9/2
and the ‘words’, i.e., the letters in the Cipher (208)
I confirm 143 on the numbers. Please clarify which/what numerical value system you are using.
Certainly there is elegance in this proof....with a nudge or two...Thanks!
...with a nudge or two.
What? Nudging is forbidden, o man, unto thee - on penalty of not having a perfectly equilibrated equation (with illustrations).
I didn't get far enough to detect any nudging or fiddling. I'm still stuck at the letters = numbers total number. How did you detect a nudge (or two)? Are you a Speed Geometrician? (It's like speed reading, but involves lines, circles, and mathematics - maybe algebra).
Rounding off decimal numbers to the nearest whole digit value could be defined as "nudging", though other terms like 'fiddling' or 'tweaking" might well, kind of, sort of, suffice....
Now beyond the rounding off for good measure, what confounds me is how "Had" as "the manifestation of Nuit" becomes a line?... (potentially very interesting!)
For, Hadit is qualified as "not extended" in II.2, and in II.3 as "In the sphere I am everywhere the center" and thus not a diameter or a radius....
Of course Nuit is not a circle, but a sphere, so the geometry of the proof requires some "transforms" to which the 'not extended' becomes 'extended'....
Rounding off decimal numbers to the nearest whole digit value could be defined as "nudging"
Agreed. No Pis in the face, please.
other terms like 'fiddling' or 'tweaking" might well, kind of, sort of, suffice....
The generic term is Modification of any kind or degree, which shall be against the whole of the law. Accuracy is the law - accuracy under (a steady) Will.
the proof requires some "transforms" to which the 'not extended' becomes 'extended'....
Well, that one's easy as Pi. But not in geometry.
Hadit = point = no dimensions = Kether. "I am not extended." Fine.
Science tells us this point without dimensions extends itself into 10 dimensions. It vibrates or oscillates in these 10 dimensions (it sets itself up for action). These 10 oscillating points, in ALL the Sephiroth, are connected by a line or a "string," which as far as I can tell is invisible and unproven, but they call it "a string." This is the precursor to The Line, which becomes obvious at Chokmah.
The Line (no longer a precursor "string") is obvious because it has One Dimesion - Length. It could be called "height" or "width," but only one word is allowed in the second sphere.
In any case, The Line (an extension) is under way. It will add dimensions as it goes, eventually uniting with infinite space - wait a kalpa! It was as an unmeasurable point in infinite space where this all began. Welcome to the wonderful world of circular logic.
who is to say that the 'circumference' referred to is necessarily a circle!
Nuit is The Queen of Infinite Space - Infinite. If such a thing is true, then no circle, sphere, or periphery can contain it.

The letter-values are determined by taking Crowley's assignments of English letters to the trigrams, which in turn are numbers in base 3.
I=0; L=1; C=2; H=3; P=4; A=5; X=6; J=7; W=8; T=9; O=10; G=11; F=12; E=13;
R=14; S=15; Q=16; K=17; Y=18; Z=19; B= 20; M=21; V=22; D=23; N=24; U=25.
The 'nudging' is a common feature of Greek qabalah when applied to geometry, where it is the ratios that are important, and those ratios are expressed with integer values. I used the nearest integers to the actual dimensions. Naturally, where Pi is involved you will almost always have a non-integer as an answer. And since gematria values are always integers, you have to use the closest approximation.
The coupling of the diameter and Hadit is not that they are identical, (I could have worded that better) but that the diameter is (double) the distance from the center of the circle to its perimeter. It expresses a relation between the center and the circle, a relation between Hadit and Nuit, who is the circumference, as Hadit states.
It is true that the word 'circumference' does not necessarily refer to a circle, but in the text of verse 2:3 it mentions the circumference of a sphere, which is a circle. And the idea that Pi might be involved in Liber AL is very clearly expressed in verse 3:47 regarding "the circle squared in its failure is a key also..."
The letter-values are determined by taking Crowley's assignments of English letters to the trigrams
Okay. I think I asked you that a long while ago, but I needed to get it straight.
I like Trigrammaton, the concept. Along with Crowley, I've had no luck with it, but I never tried very hard, so I will now become an armchair loser.
Dwtw
A right triangle whose legs are integer lengths of 143 and 208
has a hypotenuse that equals ~252.414342
Take this number and apply the Golden Ratio:
252.414342 / 1.618034 = 156.0006
Thus, Babalon is in Golden Ratio to the hypotenuse,
accurate to three decimal places.
TO MH indeed!
Litluw
O.L.
Further excellence...but is Babalon as 156 conversant with Trigammatonics or is there some other nudge involved?
Dwtw
I'm using Babalon = 156 as per Crowley.
It's interesting that he thought this was the "secret name" promised by Nuit,
and if one starts with it as the integer base you have:
156 * Phi = 252.4132
252.4132 * Pi = 792.979
so you still end up in close proximity to 793, and hence the verse about the circumference.
156 is, however, deeply involved in Trigrammaton as well.
The sum of the 12 zodiac trigrams is 156
The sum of the 8 planetary trigrams is 156.
The sum of the 7 elemental trigrams is 39, or 156 / 4.
Litlluw
O.L.
And Babalon by bus, I mean Trigrammaton, would appear to add to 85 which is not eighty fives, but seventeen fives go into that number, and either way that is a lot of AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA's
Very interesting stuff. It would be quite amusing if the gematria of the New Age was approximate, to decimal places. That would kind of fit in an odd way ("there is a factor infinite & unknown"). Also the modern emphasis on probability, Bayesian reasoning, etc.
Dwtw
Since the idea of ‘circumference’ is central to the solution of the Cipher, it is interesting to look at the word itself in the text. If we take Liber CCXX and count all the ‘words’, i.e., all the series of alpha-numeric glyphs that have a space at either end, then the word ‘circumference’ is the 2018th word of the Book.
This includes 22 ampersands, the number 11, the word Thelema, the letter Tzaddi, and the 69 verse numbers (1-66; 1-3) that precede the word. In short, it is all the contents of the Book up to that point.
Now consider the number 2018 itself as a Circumference of a circle. The diameter is then 642.35; let us round this down to 642, and behold!
642 = What meaneth this, o prophet? Thou knowest not; nor shalt thou know ever.
These are the very first words to come after the Cipher in verse 2:76.
Thus, the solution covers the statement of what shall be listened to, which are the components of a right triangle; the circumcircle of that triangle, which in turn is the verse that refers to a circumference, which then points to the caveat regarding the meaning of the Cipher.
Litlluw
O.L.
Excellent
And to think i am still going over the first part of your equation, which is fascinating considering the thought of Hadit moving as the hypotenuse, which of course will never know the circle as Nicholas of Cusa showed how science without hypothesis makes for slaves who think their hypotenuses will solve the problem....
Dwtw
Yesternight, as the Sun was in direct opposition to Pluto, in 27 Cancer and Capricorn, I made the ‘following’ discovery:
Using the right triangle that shows the solution to the Cipher of AL 2:76, one can propose that the diameter of this circle is the primary axis of the zodiac, going from 0 degrees Aries to 0 degrees Libra, indicating the two Equinoxes. On the semicircle containing the triangle, the right angle is tangent to the circumference at a point that splits the half-circle into two circular segments, with chords of 143 and 208 in length. These segments have a span in degrees of 69.01705 and 110.98295. Starting from 0 Aries, this point is at 69° 1’ 1” of celestial longitude, which corresponds to tropical 8° Gemini 1’.
For the epoch of A.D. 1900, the star Aldebaran was at 8° Gemini 23’; thus a mere one-third of a degree offset from this position. It is not possible to get closer to this precise degree with two integer values of the sides of the right triangle, while maintaining the circumference of a circle that equals 793, (which is the gematria of the verse mentioning the circumference). It is therefore valid to conclude that this point on the circumference of the zodiac circle is the location of Aldebaran, one of the most significant stars in the sky.
Further validation of this alignment is found in the text of Liber AL. Immediately after the Cipher is the following text:
"What meaneth this, o prophet? Thou knowest not; nor shalt thou know ever.
There cometh one to follow thee: he shall expound it."
In other words, there will be a ‘follower’ who shall expound this Cipher. The name Al-Dabaran is an Arabic term that means “the Follower”. It is therefore this star that shall expound the Cipher. The word Expound is ultimately from Latin exponere, meaning ‘to put forth, expose, exhibit or reveal’. This indicates that this star will ‘exhibit' the geometry of the Cipher.
One consequence of pointing to this star is that in the Arabic abjad gematria system, the name of Al-Debaran has a value of 288, while the name Nuit (who is the circumference) has a value of 466 in Hebrew gematria. The ratio of 466/288 reduces to 233/144, a classic Fibonacci pair that shows an approximate Golden Ratio of 1.61805; precise to four decimal places.
It is also worth noting that the Arabic gematria of Al-Dabaran - 288 is the English gematria of the phrase "this circle squared in its failure". This is one of the three 'keys' mentioned in AL 3:47, and here we see that the circle is indeed 'squared' in a way, by having a right angle tangent to its circumference.
Aldebaran represents the right eye of Taurus the Bull, and is sometimes referred to as the 'Bull's eye', a term still used in English as the center of a target. Aldebaran is one of the four 'Royal Stars' of astrology, and its importance dates back to the earliest astronomers of ancient Mesopotamia. As the original marker of the March Equinox ca. 3044 BC, it was used by the Babylonians as the fiducial star that marked the circuit of the zodiac (along with its almost exact opposite, Antares). The legend and lore of Al-Dabaran is vast and well worth studying, and it makes a very appropriate symbol as one of the most prominent stars in the body of the Star Goddess.

Very interesting! And further Congratulations!
So what might this discovery portend!... considering that astrological significances now newly wound, or unwinding should we be able to follow the math and geometry dancing with the cryptic runes of prophetic Libers....into some sort of fortune telling, or warning or something beyond mundane considerations....
It is interesting that the Krla Cell discoveries of @Jeffrey-d-Evans find golden section templates in Liber Legis and with refractory connection to stellar complexes as well...would could be complimentary to the wave forms finding their way into the work unfolding for Omega Logion (nine equals two)!
Dwtw
The star Aldebaran is important for two main reasons: it is one of the brightest stars, and it is almost exactly 180 degrees away from its pair Antares. These are the only two prominent stars to form an axis across the zodiac, thus the Babylonians used them to measure all the other astrological positions. So, when discussing Aldebaran, the assumption is that Antares is lurking somewhere. Indeed, if one flipped the triangle of this diagram to the other half of the circle, the right angle would indicate the position of Antares.
With this in mind, it is very illuminating to look at the astrological chart of the fire that destroyed Boleskine House. The fire was first reported on 12-23-2015 at 4 pm UTC; assume it began 15 minutes earlier:
A major feature of this chart is that the Malefics - Mars and Saturn - are precisely aligned with Spica and Antares, respectively, making extremely accurate conjunctions. Across the circle, the Moon is conjunct Aldebaran within 2 degrees; not as precise as the Malefics, but well within 'orb'. Of course, the Moon and Saturn are the outer limits of the 'Chaldean order' of the planets, being the fastest and slowest moving. Thus their pairing is analogous to the pairing of Aldebaran and Antares. But more importantly, for a fire that marks the end of a time cycle, one could hardly ask for more potent harbingers than Mars and Saturn. Mars is of course fiery in nature, and the sickle of Saturn/Cronus is a type of sword; thus the prophecy that "with fire and sword it be burnt down & shattered" was symbolically implemented by the Malefics, aligned with two of the majors stars of the zodiac.
Litlluw
O.L.
Wow more fascinating revelations....reading the post concerning your discovery and now the Aldebaran, "Bull's Eye" indeed, I wondered what might pin the tail on the donkey so to speak at the other end of the Equinox...So thanks for your latest post in that direction and more!
Regarding what this all might portend... it is interesting that you have brought up the fire at Boleskine, seen through its astrological transition relative to such stars of import.
What sort of astonishes me, personally, is that it is like I never really read the Book of the Law, for it is as though I had come across the word "shattered" before until you put up the quote... but the fact that it now does register, well...
Thanks!

I found an online calculator that gives the positions of the Behenian fixed stars for any year from 1800-2100, and there are a couple interesting findings within. The axial stars of Aldebaran and Antares are about 2 minutes of arc offset from exact opposition. Aldebaran enters a new degree of a sign 2-3 years before Antares follows suit at the other end of the zodiac. Here are the years of interest:
Aldebaran (8 0'0" Gem 1873) - (9 0'0" Gem 1944) - (10 0'0" Gem 2015)
Antares (8 0'0" Sag 1875) - (9 0'0" Sag 1947) - (10 0'0" Sag 2018)
So Antares entered 8 Sagittarius in the year of Crowley's birth and 9 Sagittarius in the year of his death. Aldebaran entered 10 Gemini in the year of the fire at Boleskine. It would appear that this starry axis is directly related to major events of the 93 Current.
Litlluw
O.L.
Relative to Crowley's New Comment to III. 34, what might be the astrological factors concerning his loss of his 'holy place' which he identified as Boleskine house?
Unfortunately I would have to research the date of that loss, which others might be able to more easily identify...one supposes when he gave title of Boleskine to the OTO, but could also be construed to be when the OTO lost possession of the house.
This presupposes that Boleskine is the actual 'holy place"!
BTW, what system of gematria values do you use...is this based upon Trigrammaton, or am I thinking of someone else?
Much Thanks for sharing your findings.

HG
Note that @Shiva, has commented upon my bringing up AC's New Comment relative to III.34, prompted by your hypothesis and findings relative to this verse in the "Crowley In Genocide Mode" thread, that is very interesting and important relative to OTO and A.'. A.'. and the phenomenon incumbent upon initiation, etc...that might well be explained by stellar Equinoxian doppelgänger effect of an emerging New Aeon astrology that I might identify your discovery?!
Dwtw
Sounds like fun, dive in!
The gematria is standard Trigrammaton Qabalah.
Also, I forgot to add with my last post that as noted above, 'circumference' is the 2018th word of the Book, and 2018 is when Antares entered 10 Sagittarius. A significant event related to the Next Aeon took place in that year, namely the beginning of my Initiation to the grade of Magus. This in turn allowed the Word of the Next Aeon to be uttered in 2020 when that initiation was completed.
Also of relevance to the astrology of this thread is that the verse containing 'circumference' is the 69th verse of Liber AL, and Aldebaran was in 8 Gemini, i.e. the 69th degree of the zodiac ,when the Book was written in 1904.
Litluw
O.L.
The gematria is standard Trigrammaton Qabalah.
Would it be possible for you to post the letter-number correlations? I am certainly capable of looking in Trigrammaton, but it has several pages. I am hoping you have a simple, one-page, or less, reference.

The letter-values are determined by taking Crowley's assignments of English letters to the trigrams, (as noted in his 'Old Comment') which in turn are numbers in base 3.

Here are some further correlations of the star in question with the first three nuclear fission reactions accomplished by human beings. This may have been the promised 'war-engine' from the Warrior Lord of the Forties:
****
Dec. 2, 1942 First nuclear reaction – Stagg Field Chicago
Aldebaran at 8 Gemini 58’
Saturn at 8 Gemini 57’ 06”
*
July 16, 1945 Trinity test of atomic bomb Alamogordo, NM:
Aldebaran at 9 Gemini 01’
Venus at 9 Gemini 12’ 54”
*
August 6, 1945 Hiroshima, Japan atomic bomb:
Aldebaran at 9 Gemini 01’
Mars at 9 Gemini 12’ 23”
****
The second atom bomb dropped on Nagasaki was three days later, so not much changed except that Mars moved a couple degrees further on, still in conjunction. But the point had been made.
It is quite interesting that Venus was the marker for the bomb test, but had been replaced almost exactly by Mars when the bomb was dropped as an act of War. Even more exact was the correlation with Saturn at the first reaction in Chicago, setting the outer limit of the Atomic Age.
Litlluw
O.L.
This is very cool, thank you.
Dec. 2, 1942 First nuclear reaction – Stagg Field Chicago
I was living only 20 miles from this event, at the age of three (3). I was not aware of this event at the time, nor until now, except by vague rumor. Martin Starr, who lives in Chi-town, tells me there are publick places where radioactivity still oozes out from basements and foundations that were involved in early Chi-town experiments.
I guess it took them a while to figure out that they better get this crap out of the city and into uninhabited deserts (like Alamogordo).
July 16, 1945 Trinity test of atomic bomb Alamogordo, NM:
Alamogordo ("Fat Cottonwood" tree) is the nearest big (or at least official) city to the Trinity wasteland in the Jornado del Muerto ("journey of the dead man" or "dead man walking"). I presently live in the northern extension of that Jornada. Exactly 75.2 miles, if you're measuring. Why am I nomading around, following the Atomic Trail?
August 6, 1945 Hiroshima
As usual, the first uses of nuclear energy in the atomic age was to vaporize the enemy. Hail, Horus ... as the profit keeps saying.
I had nothing to do with this event, but I will take responsibility for it, so that I can get out (23). I mean, I was only five (5)(Hail Horus) and nowhere near Japan. No lo contendre.
Dwtw
You're welcome Shiva.
If one is into the Tree of Life planetary spheres template, it is interesting to see these three occasions of nuclear fission in terms of that. First you have Saturn activating Aldebaran, and this would be -maybe- in Binah, but more likely in Da'at, where humankind has now eaten of the Tree of Knowledge and has begun to manipulate the Atom. There is no question that a portal was opened up between the worlds when this reaction was achieved.
Then you go to the sphere of Venus - Netzach, meaning 'Victory', and the test of our power is made evident in the material plane, with Victory in the war all but assured by its success.
Then you go to the sphere of Mars - Geburah or Din, meaning 'Strength' or 'Judgment', and now the power is used as an act of War, of meting out judgement and punishment to the wicked (as described by the Victors, of course).
With Venus and Mars occupying almost identical positions when activating Aldebaran, they make a polarity of sorts between them. And what exactly is between them on the Tree? The Sun, which in this case is the power of the nuclear reaction. The analogy sort of ends there, because the Sun is powered by fusion and not fission. But it wouldn't be long before we harnessed that power as well. And typically a thermonuclear (fusion) bomb is triggered by an atomic (fission) detonator. So one thing leads to another...
Litlluw
O.L.
Saturn activating Aldebaran, and this would be -maybe- in Binah, but more likely in Da'at, where humankind has now eaten of the Tree of Knowledge and has begun to manipulate the Atom.
With Saturn involved, yes, the "impulse" would come rolling (or beamed) out of Binah. But, yes, this would mean nothing to humanity until it was filtered through, and organized by, Da'at[h]. Oppenheiher quoted the Gita at the time of that knowledge: I am become death - the destroyer of worlds. No shinola, he was playing with some heavy-duty breakthrough.
There is no question that a portal was opened up between the worlds when this reaction was achieved.
None in my mentat. I dunno about Chicago, but I took the Jornada. I went to Trinity to verify (or deny) the Portal. One cannot deny what is not there, so, yeah, I went looking for verification signs. But it was my associate who caught the pic that led to the verification. I wrote a chapter or two about it, with pictures for the reading-impaired. . So what? Almost everybody alive these days was born after that event, so it's like normal for them. But then, by the time I came awake, it was already normal for me. We are all screwed!
So one thing leads to another...
The Theory of Bigger Bangs.
I suppose the hypothesis concerning the atom bomb is that its is the 'war engine' as has been certainly been bandied about well not explicitly in this thread yet.... which by this Trigrammaton war-engine would come to the value of 111...which is interesting... unless i counted wrong or the dash means a minus sign...but that does not mean that the atom bomb is the war-engine! I think this Trigrammaton answer points to some other magical metaphor...why maybe there is something to this Trigrammaton after all....though I think all sorts of EQ systems can find all sorts of interesting surprises as every number is said to be infinite...
Of course there are those who doubt the A-Bomb was nothing other than big theater as this paper by Miles Mathis explores...in his peculiar papers...

there are those who doubt the A-Bomb was nothing other than big theater
When I was this kid, about 12, I was overnite at my grandparents house (Van Nuys, CA - heart of The San Fernando Valley), circa '51. There was this above-ground blast scheduled at the testing ground near Las Vegas NV at ~4:50 AM. I set my mental clock.
I suddely awoke and looked at the physical clock. It said, "4:50." Oh, crappola! I rushed outside. It was still normal and dark. For about one second. Then the sky lit up like daylight - just for a moment. Some big theater, eh?
I believe in the Father Chokmah, the Tiphareth Sun, and the Atomic Bomb at Malkuth. I saw the Light! All scoffers must be denied. Maybe laughed upon.
Dwtw
The word 'war-engine' is actually 112. And it could refer to more than one thing, as the Adept reaches the four different ordeals of the Book. The atom bomb was obviously the pre-eminent war-engine of that period; whether it was prophesied by RHK or not. So, the bomb was a war-engine, but maybe the 'war-engine' wasn't just the bomb. Apply Occam's razor as you shave and think what thou wilt.
Because 112 is such a small number, lots of matches can be found, so you have to expand the data set to find more meaningful correspondences, such as these two statements from RHK:
226 = I will give you a war-engine.
226 = I will bring you to victory
Here we see the influence of the sphere of Netzach as the outcome of using the war-engine, and this correlates with the position of Aldebaran at the Trinity test.
Litlluw
O.L.
Well i am glad that I made a qualification regarding my arithmetic skills, 'addition is defunct', and at least it gave Shiva a break!
Oh well one hundred and eleven would have been a very interesting value for war-engine! Some though might fudge factor the (-) as a minus meaning (-1) to get the baby from 112 back to 111....
I find it interesting to note that 27 (war) minus 58 (engine) equals (-31) and that would be a value that would have more face value significance relative to standard Hebrew number/letter values embedded in CCXX.

The word 'war-engine' is actually 112.

Aldebaran
"Aldebaran is a giant star that is cooler than the Sun with a surface temperature of 3,900 K, but its radius is about 44 times the Sun's, so it is over 400 times as luminous. It spins slowly and takes 520 days to complete a rotation. Aldebaran is believed to host a planet several times the mass of Jupiter, named Aldebaran b."
a minus meaning (-1) to get the baby from 112 back to 111....
Oh no, you don't. TriQBL-fiddling (a felony) is forbidden, o man, unto thee and thine - you'll not be getting me back into the war.
Dwtw
A couple things of interest here. First of all, on April 10, 1904 when the 'war-engine' was mentioned, little J. Robert Oppenheimer was still kicking in the womb. He would be born 12 days later. At the time of the Trinity test, he was arguably the most powerful man in the world, with control over the detonator of the first atomic bomb.
That bomb, nicknamed The Gadget, was a device that used the isotope Plutonium-239 as its fissile material. In the Hebrew gematria we have:
239 = AZRAEL - The Angel of Death
So his quote from the Gita has a parallel in Hebrew kabbalah.
For the bomb used on Hiroshima, the fissile material was Uranium-235
235 = TzaDQIEL - Archangel of Chesed
Tzadqiel means 'god is my righteousness'.
For the bomb used on Nagasaki, it was again Plutonium-239 and again Azrael made their point.
The two numbers combined give you 235 + 239 = 474 = DA'ATH - Knowledge, but also Death.
If you want to add in the third bomb, you get 474 + 239 = 713 = Shabbatai - the Sphere of Saturn. 713 also equals Abaddon, destruction or ruin. These all seem appropriate to the atomic bomb.
Litluw
O.L.
No i was warning that some might fiddle as such, and relative to some of your proper arguments in other wars...
The (minus thirty-one) -31 though is entirely legitimate. Entirely!
the most powerful man in the world, with control over the detonator of the first atomic bomb.
And just after he (gave the WORD to ...) detonated, he quotes The Bhagavad Gita, for Krishna's sake !
239 = AZRAEL - The Angel of Death
Uh-huh.
Tzadqiel means 'god is my righteousness'.
Right. God must have been on our side because we won.
If you want to add in the third bomb, you get 474 + 239 = 713 = Shabbatai - the Sphere of Saturn. 713 also equals Abaddon, destruction or ruin. These all seem appropriate to the atomic bomb.
A very interesting series of correspondences. Why, it's like they were taken right out of the book (which they were), and not fiddled or made-up.
Although a bunch (council, gang, cabal) of scientists voted to declare humanity had entered a New Age (epoch, era, etc) with the series of booms in the early '50s, naming it the ATOMIC AGE ... we know it started in '42 (pre-rumble),, followed by the Oppenheimer-Hadit-Groves triad presentation of white lightning. Many folks have never seen the rare shot where Hadit reveals himself to those who know about black holes ...

Having shown some correlations of Aldebaran with events relating to the Aeon of Horus and the Atomic Age, it is interesting to see it also appear in the birth chart of the Next Aeon.
The MA-ION began on December 21, 2020. This was the day of the Solstice, but more significantly, it was the day of the Great Conjunction of Saturn and Juppiter in 0 degrees Aquarius. There are two ways to determine what the moment of closest conjunction was: Ecliptic Longitude (used typically in astrology), and Right Ascension on the Celestial Equator system (expanding the Earth's equator into space). According to the latter method, the time of closest separation was 13:32 UTC, which was 3:32 pm in Cairo. At that time, the Sphinx was staring due East at the Ascendant, which was at 9 Gemini 57, exactly 1 degree forward from the position of Saturn and Aldebaran at the birth of the Atomic Age.
Just appearing on the horizon was Aldebaran at 10 Gemini 05. Within the limits of accuracy, Aldebaran was making its heliacal rising at the moment that the MA-ION began, pointed directly at the Sphinx, who is Horemakhet and Herukhuti. That was the Time when RHK arose, and the double-wanded one assumed his throne and place.

Sorry to rain on the parade, but the "Ma-ion" was first declared by Charles Stansfeld Jones, Frater Achad, where its inception was noted by him as being on April 2. 1948 at 1:11 PM in Vancouver, Canada. And since the term Ma-ion is Acad's discovery, then his declaration of its inception is here noted!
Sorry to rain on the parade
Oh, he knows all about that. He has an umbrella.
April 2. 1948
Only 4 months after AC died. Think not upon that lie).
Yeah, the 2000-year Aeon has some competition.

I'm well aware of Fr. Achad's pronouncement, and as I have said elsewhere, I think he intuited what was coming, but proclaimed it prematurely. The stars had to move one more degree for everything to fall into place. But the term MA-ION is valid, it simply has a much deeper meaning than Achad understood, it being the name of AMUN with the 'I' as the "fifth who is invisible" in the center of the other four letters. He was definitely on to something, but was not a Magus able to utter a Word, let alone the Word of the Aeon. Achad deserves all the credit for the term 'MA-ION', but that Aeon did not start in 1948 as he claimed. It started in 2020, 72 years later.
Speaking of stars moving 1 degree... I made an error in my statement earlier in this thread. Because of the use of 0 degrees for zodiac signs, I made a typo and then persisted in thinking that the corner of the right triangle pointed to 8 Gemini 1' of arc, when it fact it points to 9 Gemini 1'. I was off by one degree. Obviously, 69 degrees and 1 minute of arc, starting from 0 Aries, is 9 Gemini 1'. I apologize for this oversight, and append the corrected image.
This is actually even more impressive, since it pinpoints the exact location - to the arc-minute - of Aldebaran at the time of the first three nuclear explosions in 1945, as shown in an earlier post. This would make it a prophecy hidden in the Cipher, and is persuasive evidence that the atom bomb is in fact the 'war-engine' promised by RHK.

We might remember that nothing happens immediately. Well, if you throw a switch, the electrons immediately get moving, but I refer to how things like seasons and aeons, and even the night-day cycle, happen gradually - often in little stages.
This is particularly notable in changing cycles that involve multiple levels of consciousness. For example, Horus took the seat, and thus became the hiero-pants on the Spring Equinox in 1904. Crowley made a note about it. The world did not perceptively change.
Then, a few days later came the early April writing-fest. The world did not perceptively change.
Slowly, but moving faster every day, the aeon manifested. The technology was most noticeable. Today, we're still in transition. Looking around, there is still a lot of Osiris, but we';re looking a a lot of modifications since 1904.
The change comes moving down the Tree. It takes time. Several waypoints may be noted. Many dates may be proclaimed and contested.
it being the name of AMUN with the 'I' as the "fifth who is invisible" in the center of the other four letters.
Um, this appears to be a break in your impeccable logic and expoundation. Why is AMUN suddenly brought in as a qualifier or explainer? The reversal of AM to form MA is where the fiddling starts (although the sum is the same). Why is "I" suddenly added to the word without introduction? How does UN qualify to be counted as "ON?'
I have a personal score to settle with AMUN and The Lords of Thebes, so please excuse me if I become anally-persnickety about him, them, the numbers, and the aeons.
He was definitely on to something, but was not a Magus able to utter a Word, let alone the Word of the Aeon.
Yeah. That's about the size of it.

Don't you just hate it when this happens? I was the only person in San Diego who (apparently) know how to work the Mayan Calendar - Gregorian Converter do-dad. I became tired of repeating the procedure in lecture after lecture, so I created a video. In the video presentation, I made (like you) a one-digit error.
How embarrassing.

I totally agree. But it helps to keep in mind that the idea of a successor Aeon appears in Liber AL, as does the prophesy that Boleskine must burn down before the next Aeon arrives. But of course if Achad thought about 'concurrent aeons' then I suppose that wouldn't matter.
I made an error in my statement earlier in this thread.

Yeah, I have a bad habit of counting the 0 degree of a sign as the first, and therefore a 1, which doesn't make much difference when you're aiming for the middle of a degree, but right at the edge like this it makes it off by one.

Without going into Achad's stuff too deeply in this thread about the Cipher, I'll try to clarify a bit.
Jones claimed his Word of 1926 as MA-ION, ultimately relating it to the end letters of the word MA-NIFESTAT-ION. He calculated this as transliterated Hebrew: מאיון Mem-Alef-Yod-Vav-Nun, with a total of 107. Since this is equal to the word BITzaH, meaning Egg, he made a point of that connection, and further transliterated the rest of the word NIFESTAT, as 150, equal to the word QeN meaning Nest. So, an Egg in a Nest was his basic idea.
However, he didn't take into full account the mention of the Word 'egg' in Liber AL 2:49. There it refers to a 'babe in an egg', not an egg in a nest. But the full verse is:
I am unique & conqueror. I am not of the slaves that perish. Be they damned & dead! Amen. (This is of the 4: there is a fifth who is invisible, & therein am I as a babe in an egg.)
This verse begins with the letters I AM UN, which transliterate to the same letters as MA-ION (it was Achad's idea to transliterate O as Vav instead of Ayin, because he liked the Egg result). Then the word 'Amen' is mentioned, and it is said that it refers to the 4, meaning the 4 Elements, since AMeN in Hebrew, spelled with Nun sofit, (אמן) has the value of 741, the same as the four letters of the Elements (Alef+Mem+Shin+Tav). Then the verse goes on to say that beyond these 4 ֵElements there is a fifth which is invisible, and therein am "I" (which I take to be the letter Yod from MA-ION) as a babe in an egg, i.e., a babe/Yod inside this word that equals Egg/Bitzah/107. Hiding the 'I' inside the other four letters leaves MA-ON, and these are the letters that spell the name AMON = אמון. They are indicated in the proper order at the beginning of the verse.
I hope that helps clear up the confusion about the 'O' vs 'U' transliteration.

But of course if Achad thought about 'concurrent aeons' then I suppose that wouldn't matter.
I am willing to set the board up in either manner. Successive Aeons are useful for tracking the general trend in one's neighborhood, nation, or culture (it may, or may not, correspond to the current era in China, Kashmir, or Borneo).
Concurrent Aeons are obviously an alternative observation. This allows any individual, or group, or culture to "enter" the "next step" whenever he, she, they, or it get the previous aeon's work done - they will then find themselves surrounded, or at least irritated, by "old aeon" mentality and customs.
AC's earliest position was that an aeon could be short or long, and we dunno how to track it, because "tie is not here as it is there" (or vice-the-verse). The 2,000-year Aeon, with its sync to astro signs that don't match, seems to be pretty much discounted.
Yeah, I have a bad habit of counting the 0 degree of a sign as the first, and therefore a 1 ...
The same as encountered when synchronizing the Sabian astro (starts with 1*, ends with 30*) with contemporary astro (starts with 0*, ends with 29*) - or vice-the-verses.
No, I got it right the first time. I had to look it up. Sabian starts with 1*.
This drives me to the edge, every time I convert to another system. We are cursed - we have been incarnated into a world where things are often OFF by one degree. And sometimes they're not. Astro charts, birthdays, aeons - all subject to slippage (a niyama).
right at the edge like this it makes it off by one.
"One-off-man-ship"
This verse begins with the letters I AM UN, which transliterate to the same letters as MA-ION (it was Achad's idea to transliterate O as Vav instead of Ayin, because he liked the Egg result).
Uh-huh.
No fiddling, there.
the verse goes on to say that beyond these 4 ֵElements there is a fifth which is invisible ...
I am completely on-board with this. So is Oriental Medicine and the Western 5-element Model (if they get it right - there are so many different arrangements).
these are the letters that spell the name AMON
I see. Well, of all the deities, Amen gets the longest list of ways to spell his name: Amun, Amon, Amoun. I smile inside every time I see or hear the Osirians say, "Amen." They say it means "So be it." We get olden and say "So mote it be." None of this actually relates to Amon.
He was a water god, and thus different from the usual lineage of Solar gods. I think the Solar gods are regarded as fire, but a case could be made for spirit or aether," what with the Sol of Solar being at Tiphareth, and the 4 down below, where they belong..
I hope that helps clear up the confusion
Yes. Thank you, the pieces of the puzzle are in their places and on their planes. Achad was foreseeing, but unable to "ground" the circuit
The thing I find fascinating (and slightly amusing) is that the proponents of the idea of simultaneously occurring Aeons, basically end up describing the concept of "currents" rather than Aeons.

The text of verse 2:76 seems to support a sidereal zodiac based on its use of the word ‘follow’. This word appears twice in the verse: “there cometh one to follow thee, he shall expound it”, and “remember o chosen one to be me, to follow the love of Nu in the star-lit heaven”.
Elsewhere, Nuit has said that “my word is six and fifty”, and this is usually interpreted as the spelling of the name NU, which in Hebrew would be Nun-Vav, which letters are attributed to the signs of Scorpio and Taurus. These are the locations of Antares and Aldebaran in the Babylonian zodiac. Aldebaran gets its name as “the Follower” because it follows the Pleiades in the zodiac, and these are traditionally found about 5 degrees of Taurus in the Babylonian zodiac, while Aldebaran is at 15 Taurus. So, to “follow the love of Nu” could mean to follow the Pleiades, as does Aldebaran, and to align these stars with NU, נו i.e., the Scorpio-Taurus axis. This implies using a sidereal zodiac, which is not too surprising for a stellar goddess.
As we all know, the vernal point precesses backwards over time. The difference between its sidereal position and 0 Aries in the tropical zodiac is known as the ayanamsa. The most common ayanamsa, or offset, used in sidereal astrology is the Fagan/Bradley. There are many others, most of which do not differ too much from this one. For the year 1945, the ayanamsa is 23 degrees and 58 minutes of arc. This would put the vernal point at 6 Pisces 2’. Changing to sidereal reckoning does not change the precise alignment with Aldebaran and the atomic explosions, it just places that alignment in Taurus rather than Gemini. Whether or not one chooses to use sidereal astrology is a matter of taste. It remains a fact that in 1945 Aldebaran was in 9 Gemini 1’ tropical, and 15 Taurus 3’ sidereal.
Further support for the Taurus/Scorpio axis is found in the triangle itself. Assume it is pointing to Aldebaran in the corner of the right triangle; then its opposite point is Antares, and to draw a line to it we have to bisect the triangle, turning it into two isosceles triangles with edge lengths of the radius of the circle (126.207), and base lengths of 143 and 208. Such triangles have perimeters that equal 395.414 and 460.414 respectively. Their sum is 855.8286. We round this to 856, which is the Greek gematria of Epaphos, the Greek demi-god associated with Apis, the sacred Bull of Egyptian religion. This Bull can represent Taurus.
Now, recalling that the Golden Ratio of the diameter of the circle is 156.0006, and thus points to Babalon, let us apply the Golden Ratio to this figure for the perimeters of the two triangles and see if it also points to Nuit:
855.828 / Phi = 528.930. Let us round this to 529. If we begin with 529 and multiply by Phi, the result is 855.939. If we divide the perimeters by 529, the result is 1.6178, a very close approximation of Phi. So, the integer ratio of 856 and 529 gives us 1.61814, accurate to .0001 of the Golden Ratio.
All of this is to say that 529 should hold an important clue to this mystery:
529 = Ouden – no one, none, naught (from Crowley’s Greek gematria dictionary)
529 = the Naught of our Lady of the Body of the Milk of the Stars.
So, we have references to Nothing or Naught in both cases. And “Tzaddi is not the Star”.
According to Wikipedia: “The Pleiades was the most well-known star among pre-Islamic Arabs and so often simply referred to as "the Star" (al Najm)” Now that is certainly interesting to those concerned about the phrase “tzaddi is not the Star”. In the Marseilles and Rider-Waite-Smith tarot designs, there are seven smaller stars on the Star card, and these are usually interpreted as the Pleiades. This would imply that the large Star of the card is Aldebaran, one of the brightest stars in the sky. And the Arabic name of “the Follower” is 288, which is in Golden Ratio to the name of Nuit – 466.

The Arabic abjad alphabet has 28 letters, and the Arabic astronomers assigned them in order to the 28 Lunar mansions. Aldebaran and Antares are located in the 4th and the 18th mansions, and are consequently assigned the 4th and 18th letters; Dal and Sad. These correspond to the 4th and 18th Hebrew letters: Dalet and Tzaddi.
As we know Dalet and Tzaddi are attributed to the tarot cards of the Empress and the Star, and these form a harmonious connection, for the Empress is Venus and the Star card in the Thoth deck depicts the Star of Venus as well as the Star of Babalon. These could well symbolize Venus as Morning and Evening Star, making a close connection between the two cards.
Using these two mansions as the locations of the starry axis finds support in Crowley's Holy Book Liber 231, part of which gives a card-by-card description of the Major Arcana. The text shows a deliberate connection between these two cards, as identified by their Roman numeral in the verse number of the text:
3. The Virgin of God is enthroned upon an oyster-shell; she is like a pearl, and seeketh Seventy to her Four. In her heart is Hadit the invisible glory.
17. Transformed, the holy virgin appeared as a fluidic fire, making her beauty into a thunderbolt.
It is obviously the same Virgin spoken of in both cards, for in the Star, she appears "transformed". Thus, the text connects the Atus quite explicitly. Now we apply this to the present case of the Cipher. As noted above, at the moment of the Trinity test, Venus was aligned with Aldebaran. This is her as the Empress. What a thing of beauty; with all that calculation and theoretical physics put into practice. And there the bomb sat like a pearl on the half-shell, opened up on the world like Botticelli's Birth of Venus. In her heart was the atomic material, the Hadit who is "in the heart of every star". She seeks 70 to her 4, and 70 is Ayin and means Eye while 4 is Dalet and means Door. She is seeking the Bull's Eye of Aldebaran. And she finds it in New Mexico.
Now we switch to her new incarnation in the Star card. The Virgin is transformed, and her beauty becomes a thunderbolt, i.e., a weapon of war and destruction. Recall that her place with Aldebaran was taken by Mars when the bomb was used in hostility over Hiroshima. Mars is Exalted in Capricorn, whose letter is Ayin - 70. Now this bomb was truly a "fluidic fire", and the beauty of Venus had become a thunderbolt of awesome power.
The gematria of these two verses equals 1319 + 893 = 2212. This is a very curious number, in light of this account of the atomic bomb. In ternary, the decimal number 2212 becomes 1000022 and by reversing the digits we have 2200001 = 1945. This gives us the year that Aldebaran moved into the exact position indicated by the Cipher Triangle at Gemini 9*1', aligned with the planets Venus and Mars to signal the opening of the Door to the Eye and the first atomic explosions on the planet.
Now let us take this gematria value of the two verses as the circumference of a circle:
2212 / Pi = a radius of 352.05 and a diameter of 704.101
352 = the key to the gate of the evening star.
The radius of this circle shows the connection between the Gate, i.e, the Door of Dalet, and the Evening Star, the planet of the Empress in her guise of a 'star' depicted on the Star card. But its awesome potential is revealed when the full axis is connected:
704 = a war-engine. With it ye shall smite the peoples; and none shall stand before you.
The diameter of the circle describes the 'war-engine' of the atomic bomb, while the circumference describes the two cards whose letters are assigned to the Lunar mansions occupied by Antares and Aldebaran, and secretly refers to the year that this axis will come into alignment with the Cipher Triangle, and unleash the war-engine.

Like how people insist that there can only be one Magus and Word per Aeon and never address how Crowley personally listed at least 7 Magi of the A:.A:..
The thing I find fascinating (and slightly amusing) is that the proponents of the idea of simultaneously occurring Aeons, basically end up describing the concept of "currents" rather than Aeons.
Which is how I view others who have claimed to be Magi of Aeons. Do I believe in the Aeon of Set, or the Pandemonaeon as actual Aeons? No, but I see Aquino and Carroll as having uttered Aeon-enhancing Words and to have initiated currents.

It was shown that the hypotenuse of the Cipher Triangle hides a very accurate value of Babalon as 156. Dividing by the Golden Ratio, Phi: ~ 252.4143419 / ~1.6180339 = 156.0006510.
Continuing with the Golden Ratio; apply it to the entire Cipher Triangle: 603.4143419 / Phi = 372.930; rounding these to the nearest integers for gematria produces 603 for the triangle perimeter, and 373 for its Golden Ratio complement. These in turn have important equivalents in Greek:
603 = To Logion - The Oracle
373 = Logos – Word, Reason, etc.
The sum of the sides of the Cipher Triangle is the term To Logion, which indicates that the triangle is an Oracle, (as it points to Aldebaran and Trinity), but it also points to the solver of the Cipher, the Magus whose motto is Omega Logion. This in turn reveals a relationship to 373 – Logos. And it is the main function of the Magus to utter a Word, a Logos. In the present Aeon, that Logos is Katalysis. This can be verified in two ways using information in Liber AL.
The formula given by Nuit in verse 1:46, has "Sixty-one" as one version of Nothing, while "eight, eighty four hundred & eighteen" is the other. 61 is Hebrew AIN = 1 + 10 + 50, each of which is multiplied by 8 to get 8, 80, 400. The ampersand indicates adding the final 18 to this equation, which results in: x = 8n + 18.
Applying this equation
- to 'sixty-one': x = (8 * 61) + 18 = 506 = ShUR in Hebrew, the name of Taurus, the sidereal location of Aldebaran.
- to Nuit's word of 'six and fifty': x = (8 * 56) + 18 = 466 = Nuit in Hebrew
- to the sum of the Cipher numbers: x = (8 * 143) + 18 = 1162
Katalysis = 1162
Applying the Golden Ratio to this Word Katalysis: 1162 / 1.6180339 = 718.155; this is rounded to the nearest integer, which is 718, the number mentioned in verse 3:19, and Crowley's name for the Stele of Revealing: Stele 666.
Katalysis means Dissolution. It can be generated from the number 143, which happens to be the number of neutrons in Uranium-235, the isotope whose power rained dissolution on the city of Hiroshima. This occurred when Aldebaran was precisely situated at the point indicated by a chord of 143 on the circumference of the Cipher Triangle.
