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:..
Some people a just plain silly, showing how they don't do the work, because they don't even know the ground-rules of the curriculum ...
"A Magus can therefore only appear as such to the world at intervals of some centuries; accounts of historical Magi, and their Words, are given in Liber Aleph. This does not mean that only one man can attain this Grade in any one Aeon, so far as the Order is concerned. A man can make personal progress equivalent to that of a "Word of an Aeon"; but he will identify himself with the current word, and exert his will to establish it, lest he conflict with the work of the Magus who uttered the Word of the Aeon in which He is living. "
Magi, Magi, everywhere - all uttering their mantra whose word is equivalent to 93.
These days [today, for example], there are a few whose number does not equilibrate to ninety plus three. Sometimes these those are considered post-Thelemic, sometimes neo-Maatian or Herumachian, but don't be confused by virtuous words ...
There are plenty of people who have uttered Words, and those Words may bring something in to the current or Aeon, but I think some people confuse claimsof aeon enhancing Words with claims of uttering the Word of the Aeon. Xeper, Kaos, Synesis, Imperium, Aletheia, and more,are all Words uttered by others, all the condensation of a concept in to a single Word, as each Word is,but, while a couple,not all, of these utterers may claim them to be, not the Word of a new Aeon, but a Word to bring something in to the Aeon.
a Word to bring something in to the Aeon.
Why bother? Since we are advised to deem no change, and nobody's elevator is going up or down, then nothing needs enhancing ... except maybe one's importance.
Let me qualify that: This state that doesn't change, and where nobody goes up or down, is a rather higher perception at a higher level than, say, kranky LAShTAL forums, political intrigue, or day-to-day life on the surface.
Obviously, in the political theatre, the theatre of war, the stock market game show, and all the other playgrounds, there are going to be (constant) changes. Everybody involved is going to get lifted up or cast down on a daily basis.
The changeless state is, unfortunately, a goal - not a common everyday reality in the 3D theater showplace.

Another aspect of the geometry of the Cipher Triangle is the circular segments that it indicates, which approximate the Golden Ratio. We normally think of this ratio in terms of length, but here it can apply to angles as well. The interior angles of the triangle are 34.508 and 55.492 degrees, which is within .0099 of Phi:
55.492 / 34.508 = 1.6080
The circular sector created by the chord of 143 equals 69.01704 degrees, with the remainder of the semicircle (made by the chord of 208) equal to 110.98296 degrees. These are very close to 69 and 111 degrees exactly. The semicircle is 180 degrees. 291 degrees is the remainder of the full circle after the right angle tangent. These four numbers make a recurrence series that approximates Phi:
69 - 111 - 180 - 291:
69 / 111 = .621621
111 / 180 = .61666
180 / 291 = .61855
This means that the two segments indicating Aldebaran at 9 Gemini are in approximate Golden Ratio. Since all four numbers are multiples of 3, the same ratios apply when we divide them all, getting to a 'root' series consisting of three primes and another very important number:
23 - 37 - 60 - 97
Here we find the number 60, the basic number of the whole Babylonian sexagesimal system, and the root of how we measure time as well as the zodiac. The number 60 is one of the most symbolic numbers in history, and is the smallest number divisible by the first six integers. It is intriguing to note that 60 * Phi = 97.08. This can be rounded down to 97, the value of יחס הזהב – IaChaS Ha-ZaHaB - meaning "The Golden Ratio".

Cool. Do you have some simple example wherein the Ratio, 60, 66, Phi, etc can be used to do something practical? That would include things like the shape or a temple or a doghouse, but might get into things like solving (terrestrial) enigmas.

Since the Golden Ratio is built into all pentagons and pentagrams, then one practical application is building a geodesic dome for a house and/or temple. Such a dome has a pentagonal cross section, and a full sphere would have 12 pentagons mixed in with the assorted hexagons.

The Golden Ratio is alluded to in the Cipher, so it's interesting to explore what implications it might have. The movement of the axial precession of the earth takes about 71.6 years to advance 1 degree of the zodiac. The question becomes, how long does it take to move 1.6180339 degrees, indicating the Golden Ratio? 1 degree is equal to 3600 arc-seconds; therefore Phi degrees is equal to: Phi * 3600 = 5824.9223594996184 arc-seconds.
The currently established rate of precession is 5,028.796195 arc-seconds per Julian Century, (i.e. 36,525 days). Thus 5824.9223594996184 / 5028.796195 = 1.158313467801934 Centuries.
1.158313467801934 * 36,525 = 42307.399411465622551 days = 42307d:9h:35m:9s
According to Crowley, his ritual to invoke Horus was successful on 3-20-04, and he proclaimed that a new Aeon had begun. The ritual started at 10pm Cairo time, so let us use that as an approximate starting point.
The Equinox of the Gods: Beginning at 10 pm Cairo time March 20, 1904: 42,307 days 9 hours 35 minutes 9 seconds later is 7:35 am Cairo time - January 19, 2020.
This is a mere 7 days after the Saturn/Pluto conjunction of 1-12-20 that kicked off all the unusual astrological events of 2020. The discrepancy amounts to a very small difference from the Golden Ratio 'moment' of the Aeon of Horus to begin the transition to the Aeon of Amun.
The conjunction of Saturn and Pluto on January 12, 2020 was 42,300 days 21 hours after The Equinox of the Gods. This amounts to 1.61778443800 arc-seconds. This is very close to the classic Fibonacci approximation of 55 / 34. These sum to 89, the Fibonacci number that appears in the Cipher.
55 / 34 = 1.6176470588, so this discrepancy is 1.61778443800 - 1.6176470588 = 0.0001373792 arc-seconds of difference. This means that the 55/34 ratio 'moment' took place on January 8 at 9:46 am EDT, about 26 hours after the reception of The Book of the Seven Spirits, the first transmission from Amiens that announced a new Aeon was coming.
In summary, the Saturn/Pluto conjunction was 7 days before the time when the axial precession had moved a Phi number of degrees (~1.618) from the position it had in March 1904. This conjunction set in motion the death throes of the Aeon of Horus, which culminated on the December Solstice of 12-21-2020 and the Great Conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn in 0 Aquarius, when the Next Aeon began.
Note this very important fact: between the March Equinox of 1904 and the December Solstice of 2020, there were exactly 233 Equinoxes and 233 Solstices. 233 is a Fibonacci number, and the combined number of 'feasts of the times' is 233 + 233 = 466 = the name Nuit נוית

The lot was an irregular pentagon. The center of the french doors that serve as the main entrance were aligned with sunset on the summer solstice. Photo is just the opposite, taken in the evening facing southeast. Exterior is concrete, with expanded polystyrene insulation attached inside. Radiant heat (circulating hot water) in concrete slab. Tons of natural light from five skylights, great air circulation, no need for air conditioning.
The Book of Mutations was written there. Fun fact: I made a pentagonal hardwood floor section below the apex from 93 pieces of oak flooring. I was cutting this pentagon when the Pentagon was attacked on 9/11. I may be one of the few people engaged in making a pentagon when the big pentagon was hit with...something. This floor section aligned with light from twin triangular skylights on the equinox.
Magic circle was in the smaller dome: an 8-foot circle of 91 hexagons of hand-cut black ceramic tile, the central one of which was inlaid with a unicursal hexagram; the entire hexagonal array aligned toward Boleskine (back when that mattered!). The temple resonated at F#.
My initiation as Master of the Temple took place there. In fact, part of the initiation was building the actual temple. I did the majority of the work myself. The day after its completion, a vibrant rainbow appeared above it. A fitting place to accomplish the union of the 5 with the 6.

The two domes were attached but built separately. As for alignments, the thing with the pentagon is that it doesn't jibe with the old school cross-quarters, so you have to pick a primary alignment. The main thing is that all forces applied to the structure are spread out across the network. This is where the strength comes from; it can't collapse any further, because it has already collapsed in on itself. Its coherence comes from the interplay of all the parts together, thus Buckminster Fuller used the term 'synergy', a sadly overused and oft-misunderstood concept nowadays.
Living in a dome changes one's thought processes beyond the rectilinear mindset. To keep this post sort-of on topic, the location was a few blocks from where Crowley lived while he worked on getting the Blue Equinox published. And the geometry behind it was instrumental in developing Trigrammaton Qabalah within its confines, which in turn was instrumental in deciphering the Cipher. Beyond that, I will say no more about the structure in this thread. Ma'at is the temple, and the temple is Ma'at.

To veer back to the topic at hand, the peak or summit of a geodesic dome is a pentagon, and the Greek word for 'height' and metaphorically the 'crown' or 'summit' is Upsos. The Aeolian dialect of this is spelled IPSOS. This will reappear shortly, related to the pentagon.
The circle whose radius is 126.20717 is indicated by the Cipher of 2:76. Its circumference of ~793 is the gematria of verse 2:3, referring to the circumference that is Nuit. And Nuit says that the shape of her star is the Five Pointed Star. This is not a pentagram, but a star of five radiating lines, as found in numerous Egyptian temples. Thus, her star lines radiate out to the five corners of a pentagon.
If the Cipher circle is considered as the incircle of a pentagon, it turns out that the circumcircle will have a radius of 156.0006, or almost precisely 156, the value of the name Babalon. This in turn means that the five radiating lines of the Star of Nuit will touch each of these five corners, with each line having a length of 156.
(the basic relation here is that for a given regular pentagon, the diameter of the incircle is in Phi Ratio to the radius of the circumcircle)
The sum of these five radiating lines is 5 * 156 = 780. This is the 39th triangular number, aka the 'mystic number' of 39. This relates to the TQ because the six Elemental trigrams are equal to 39, while the remaining trigrams are in groups of 156 = 4 * 39.
780 is also the value of the Hebrew word Ayin, meaning Eye (spelled with a Nun final). This is the name of the companion star to Aldebaran - the Right Eye of the Bull - where Aldebaran is the Left Eye.
The circumference of a circle with a radius of 156.0006 is 980.18. This is rounded down to 980, which is the gematria of the Greek word IPSOS. This appears to be the same word channeled by Soror Nema in Liber Pennae Praenumbra. This word has generally been considered as a Latin word meaning ‘themselves’, but it is just as likely to be a Greek word, as noted above. IPSOS is used metaphorically for ‘sublimity, grandeur, summit or crown’. This seems a much more fitting meaning. The Crown of the Queen of Heaven is this circle. And every crown deserves a crown jewel. According to Agrippa, the gemstone associated with Aldebaran is the ruby. Thus the IPSOS, the Crown, is a Diadem whose ruby jewel is Aldebaran.
This has been symbolized in The Book of Dissolution, in verses 20-21:
“Hidden among the treasures of the ark is a ruby of purest red faceted like a crown to catch the twelve rays in one. It is destined for the diadem of the Queen, where it will amplify her brow and refract the light that emanates from her eye.”
The circle of 980 is appropriate to Nuit for another reason: the Greek words for “six and fifty” are ‘Ex kai Pentékonta’, with a value of 980. As Nuit states in verse 1:24 “I am Nuit and my word is six and fifty”. In this instance, her Word is equivalent to IPSOS. And from this value we can derive the value of her “secret name” of Babalon as 156.
980 is also the value of Greek Opsis, meaning 'sight or vision', and thus a medical term for 'eye'. But it also is the term for the rays that were supposed to emanate from the human eye in the ancient theory of vision. Thus the power of sight or vision originated in the eye itself as active projector, not passive receptor. And the quote above refers to "the light that emanates from her eye".
In summary: the Cipher indicates a right triangle whose hypotenuse of 252.414 is the diameter of a circle whereon the right angle marks the position on the zodiac of Aldebaran, the Left Eye of Taurus. This circle is surrounded by a pentagon whose circumcircle in turn has a radius of almost exactly 156, which is therefore the length of each line of Nuit’s star, the sum of whose lengths indicates the Right Eye of Taurus. This star is held within a circle whose circumference equals the word IPSOS, that acts as the Crown of the Queen of Heaven, having the Ruby Star of Aldebaran as the symbolic crown jewel. This Crown is equivalent to the ‘word of Nuit’ which is “six and fifty” in Greek, and is also equivalent to the word OPSIS, meaning Eye.

Liber 1162 was received 300 days after uttering the Word itself on April 9, 2020. The number 300 = Shin, the letter of the Aeon card. For some reason the first sentence was repeated in the transmission. After this first sentence, the book contains 1162 words.
In regard to the timing of the Word, the following exercise is instructive.
Using the Golden Ratio on the axial precession lends support to the idea that Frater Achad sensed a ‘shift’ in the continuity of the Aeon of Horus, an adumbration of the Aeon of Ma’at.
Achad announced this Aeon on April 2, 1948 at 1:11 pm, coincidentally (?) his 62nd birthday.
Using the reciprocal of Phi, which is .618033988749894, we can apply this to the rate of precession, which is 5,028.796195 arc-seconds per Julian Century, (i.e. 36,525 days).
1 degree = 3600 arc-seconds. 1/Phi * 3600 = 2224.922359499 arc-seconds
2224.922359499 / 5028.796195 = 0.442436375073581 centuries
0.442436375073581 * 36525 days = 16159.988599 days = 16159d 23h 43m 35s
Beginning from March 20, 1904 at 10 pm Cairo time, the interval of ~16160 days is June 17, 1948 at 1:43 pm. This is 76 days after Achad’s announcement of the MA-ION.
Let us then look at the axial precession as of the date given by Achad. Let us assume for simplicity that since he announced this at 1:11PM, which was 10:11 pm Cairo time on the same date, we adjust the beginning of the Aeon of Horus to 10:11 pm Cairo time, March 20, 1904, (about the time Crowley began the ritual which he said resulted in the Equinox of the Gods). This will make an interval of exactly 16,084 days, which is 76 days shy of the target.
16084 days = 0.440355920602327 centuries.
0.440355920602327 * 5,028.796195 arc-seconds = 2214.4601779 arc-seconds
2214.460177970704997 / 3600 = .6151278272140 degrees of precession on April 2, 1948. This is very close to the Fibonacci ratio of 8 / 13 = 0.615384615384615. The difference is .0002567 arc-seconds.
The date of the 8/13 ratio is then: 0.615384615384615 * 3600 = 2215.384615384615385 arc-seconds. 2215.384615384615385 / 5,028.796195 = 0.440539749371294 centuries. 0.440539749371294 * 36525 days = 16090.714345 days = 16090d 17h 8m 39s
From March 20, 1904 at 10:11 pm Cairo time, the elapsed time would be at 3:19 pm April 9, 1948 in Cairo.
To summarize, starting from the Equinox of the Gods, the axial precession would move ~.618034 degrees on June 17, 1948. It would move ~ .615127 degrees on April 2, 1948. It would move ~ .615384 degrees (the 8/13 ratio) on April 9, 1948. Thus, one week after Achad’s announcement, being the 44th anniversary of chapter 2 of the Book of the Law, would represent the rough 8 / 13 approximation to the Golden Ratio, in the number of degrees of axial precession of the equinoxes. This would be the first anniversary of chapter 2 occurring after Crowley’s death. This chapter contains the Cipher.
If Achad was convinced that Liber AL was actually written on April 1-2-3, then perhaps he was timing the next aeon from 44 years after chapter 2? If the dates of April 8-9-10 are the actual days of the dictation, then the anniversary was correct, but the date was wrong in his estimation. The ratio of 8 / 13 seems appropriate here because it involves the number 13, the number of letters in the word Manifestation, which was so important to Achad. Note he separated 5 of these letters to make the word MA-ION, leaving 8 remaining letters out of 13.
These calculations show that it may have been the Golden Ratio break in the continuity which was sensed by Achad, as the Aeon of Horus began its inexorable shift to the Equinox of MA.
The 8/13 ratio occurred on April 9, 1948. Exactly 72 years later (the traditional interval for the axis to move 1 degree), the Word of the Equinox of MA was uttered by Omega Logion on April 9, 2020. The evidence given above supports my contention that Achad sensed a shift was coming, but jumped the gun by 1 degree of the zodiac. And 1 degree can make an awful lot of difference.

rater Achad sensed a ‘shift’ in the continuity of the Aeon of Horus
Right. Crowley had recently died. My observation for this fairly cheery morn is this: It was a living Crowley who held the Aeon of Horus together, in his mind ... any maybe in his gnostic supermind, but no matter ... he died.
After dismissing the idea that Germer Saturnus, the Mortician of Agape Lodge, was any kind of a "magical heir," and after considering that Therion named no such "magical" heir ("fail not of an heir" - o, drat!), it is easy (isn't it?) to see the Aeon crumbling. Parsons did his part to keep it going ... poof! No Parsons no more.
Then ensued a zone of chaos and darkness. Achad had seen the next Aeon, but was unable to ground (manifest) it.
If Achad was convinced that Liber AL was actually written on April 1-2-3
Well then, he and RTC need to get themselves aligned. Howver, the Achad statement starts with an if, so we don't need to solve this hypothesis today.

I'm of the opinion that the Aeon would have come on its own and Crowley articulated it to the world. Parsons sought to bring balance to the current, and I think on a certain level Achad did too. Clearly Achad and Parsons brought through enough for others to run with.
But I'm also a heretic and believe that others also brought more elements in to the manifest world, frequently in the form of new Words, teachings compressed in to a single word or formula, though in some cases also claiming those things as Aeons unto themselves. Some others also brought forth teachings not overtly aligned with Thelema but of potential interest to Thelemites.
the Aeon would have come on its own ...
Of course it would have. These Aeons and Eras and personae who tell us what's happening on the other plains, like a newscaster 7=4 or a newsanchor 9=2 , they were all created in some person'e mind (in this case, AC's).
The Bigger Bang, the rolling AUM, the erection of the 12 houses, the attribution of time segments to qualities of horror and delight. So what? I happen to agree with some of Crowley's way of putting the puzzle together. Then, of course, there are areas where he, AC, either goes off the deep end or falls off his horse (again). Hint: an Aeon does not last exactly 2000 years.

Yeah, if Crowley hadn't decided to take down (a) The Christian Empire and (b) Mathers and the G.D., someone else might have noticed the rapid ascent of technology, or the new face on the guy sitting on his Seat in the East.

Of course it would have. These Aeons and Eras and personae who tell us what's happening on the other plains, like a newscaster 7=4 or a newsanchor 9=2 , they were all created in some person'e mind (in this case, AC's).
The model represents the progression of history in stages that also mirror stages of human development, but the system we use is Crowley's. Nobody called the Aeon of Isis that in its time, or the Aeon of Osiris during its. He gave us a model intended to work with the current shift.
The Bigger Bang, the rolling AUM, the erection of the 12 houses, the attribution of time segments to qualities of horror and delight. So what? I happen to agree with some of Crowley's way of putting the puzzle together. Then, of course, there are areas where he, AC, either goes off the deep end or falls off his horse (again). Hint: an Aeon does not last exactly 2000 years.
That's kind of clear to anybody who's studied history.

Crowley just happened to be in the right place at the right time, perhaps at an ideal stage of his life, an ideal mentality,and at the right grade, to be able to tap in and receive a message utter a Word, articulate it, and disseminate it. Others have have tapped in to part of it before he did, and some may have been touched by it, or had roles to play in it, afterwards without having encountered his ideas at the time

Some evidence for the timing of Crowley's Aeon of Horus, with regard to the axial precession, can be found in the sidereal alignments that coincided with the years of 1948 and 2020.
Using the Fagan/Bradley ayanamsa, sometime in 1947 the precession of the equinoxes had moved the Vernal Point to exactly 6 degrees of Pisces, thus having regressed exactly 24 degrees from 0 Aries. Then sometime in 1948 it precessed one more arc-minute, thus putting the vernal Point at 5* 59′ Pisces. This was a changeover to a new degree of Pisces, and it coincided with the Golden Ratio movement of the axis relative to March 1904.
Then sometime in 2018, the Vernal Point had regressed to exactly 5 degrees of Pisces. At the beginning of 2020 it had regressed 1 further arc-minute, to reside at 4* 59′ of Pisces, again entering a new degree of the sign. This was the changeover necessary to begin the Aeon of Ma'at.
As for Crowley's role, it is interesting that the Vernal Point had regressed sometime in 1875 to be at exactly 7 degrees Pisces. This was the year that Aleister Crowley was born. At the beginning of 1876, it had regressed 1 more arc-minute, and thus was at 6* 59′ of Pisces.
So let us make a chart of these changes;
Vernal Point: 7 Pisces 1875---6 Pisces 1948---5 Pisces 2019
Equinox of the Gods (EOTG) – starting point to mark degrees of axial precession
EOTG + .618 degrees = June 1948
EOTG + 1.618 degrees = January 2020
So the year 1948 saw two coincident events related to precession: the Vernal Point moved into 5*59’ of Pisces and also moved a golden ratio amount of degrees (1/Phi) since the EOTG. This resulted in the first stirrings of the MA-ION, which may have been a ‘current’ in a higher dimension, but could not manifest in the material world until the prophecy of Boleskine had been fulfilled.
When the Vernal Point moved 1 degree further in 2020, another pair of coincidences occurred, with the V.P. now at 4*59’ Pisces and the golden ratio amount of degrees (Phi) since the EOTG.This allowed the MA-ION to be grounded, and manifest on this plane.
This phenomenon is possible because the golden ratio is unique among all numbers in this respect: adding 1 to it is the same as its reciprocal. Phi/1 = (1/Phi) + 1. So, adding exactly 1 degree keeps things in golden ratio proportion. But that 1 degree was added at the same time that the Vernal Point moved from one specific degree of Pisces to the next degree (in reverse of course). That seems beyond any coincidence. At the very least, it requires lining up with a specific arc-minute of a degree, which only happens once every 72 years.
Indeed as Shiva noted, if an 'aeon' is tied to the zodiac, it can't really be 2000 years. At the current estimate of axial precession, it takes 25,776 years, which would be 2148 years per zodiac sign. Some estimates differ, and the rate may change over the course of that period, so this is an estimate at best. But its nowhere near 2,000 years.
2148 years before 2020 was 129 BC, an interesting year since that is possibly when Hipparchus published his star catalog, (the guy who 'discovered' precesssion, in the course of making the catalog).

Yes, AC, trained in literary writ and seeped in arcane lore, supercharged along the way with peyote, of all things, how strange, caught his 15 minutes of fame in never-land. And he followed directions, purging the old and writing the clean stuff down. Here is how to get through the jungle - in one Volume, ten numbers. Oh, yeah, if you're looking for the short path, check out 333, thrown in as he got out.

No. When the browser gets too many pages up for review, it slows the super-fast borg-unit, so it's holding too much shinola in memory. When it locks, it will recover, at a snail's pace. The easy remedy is to shut down the browser (termination of service). Then the borg-unit gets happy again.
One need not be concerned about "serious" in computers at this kaaba. I have three (3) borg-units in operation, with two (2) back-up units just sitting around. My new "Optiplex 790" just arrived five days ago. It's waiting to be set up with armor. He gave me a war-engine, you see. With it, I shall move unseen among the people. Forget the smiting. I'm too advanced (in age) to about smiting recalcitrants.
Anyway, if all of New Mexico goes offline, you'll know an EMP, or an IMP (Induced Magnetic Pop-off), or a lightning storm has hit the ethers over our atomic bomb development oasis. That would be serious.

Hopefully we all are. It tends to happen even when we're not trying to be there.
Crowley just had the right set and setting to make the connection and transmit what he could to get things started.I think that it wasn't a one-and-done thing and that the Aeon is still unfolding, and others have their roles to play in that.

There is a minor typo in one of my earlier posts that I want to fix, as it concealed an important aspect of the Cipher. I had accidentally noted that Aldebaran entered 8 Gemini in 1873, when it is actually 1872. So, the list of ingresses for this axis is as follows:
Aldebaran (8* 0' Gem 1872) - (9* 0' Gem 1944) - (10* 0' Gem 2015)
Antares (8* 0' Sag 1875) - (9* 0' Sag 1947) - (10* 0' Sag 2018)
Aldebaran enters a new degree first, and then Antares follows 2 or 3 years later. So, the 8* Gemini axis was inaugurated in 1872, and completed in 1875, Crowley’s birth year. The 9* Gemini axis was started in 1944 and completed in 1947, the year of Crowley’s death. The 10* Gemini axis was started in 2015, the year of the Boleskine fire, and completed in 2018, the year that began the initiation that led up to the MA-ION in 2020. In the midst of this, at 9 Gemini 1’, (the point indicated by the Cipher Triangle) Aldebaran marked the explosion of the atomic bombs (aka the ‘war-engine’) in 1945.
The circumference of the circumcircle of the Cipher Triangle (~793) indicates the gematria of verse II:3 “In the sphere I am everywhere the centre, as she, the circumference, is nowhere found.” The word ‘circumference’ is the 2018th word in Liber CCXX, including all verse numbers, ampersands, etc. The number 2018 indicates when the 10* Gemini axis was completed. And after this crucial verse, there are exactly 1872 words before the beginning of the Cipher, going from verse numbers II:4 to II:76 inclusive. This indicates the year when the 8 Gemini axis was inaugurated. Then, after the Cipher, the 208th word in Liber CCXX is “war-engine”. 208 is the sum of the letters in the Cipher, and one of the legs of the Cipher Triangle.
The number 1872 also serves another role. The numbers in the Cipher have a sum of 143, and 1872 * 143 = 267,696 = the grand total of the gematria of Liber CCXX. Therefore, the number of words after the 'circumference' verse, times the numbers of the Cipher, produces the exact gematria total of the entire Book. As an extra bonus, simply adding these factors gives us 1872 + 143 = 2015, the year of the Boleskine fire.
Also 267,696 is related to this word 'circumference'. Those who have followed my work in the past will know that the grand total of Liber CCXX, divided by Pi equals the entire English gematria of chapter 2, plus the number 418 from the penultimate verse: 267,696 / Pi = 85210.283
(English of CCXX cap. 2 = 84,792) + 418 = 85210. Thus the global sum of the Book can act as the circumference of a circle whose diameter is the gematria contents of the chapter containing the word 'circumference'. Thus, "this circle squared in its failure" (Pi) and Abrahadabra (418) are both keys to the Book, as specified in verse III:47. And the global sum divided by the Cipher number 143 produces 1872, the number of words following the verse about the circumference.
So, the 143 found in the Cipher provides two measurements from the real world: the length in years from one activation of the Aldebaran axis to the one that follows two degrees later (when the Boleskine prophecy was fulfilled), and the number of neutrons in Uranium-235, which exploded when Aldebaran reached the point indicated by the chord of 143 on the circle of the Cipher Triangle. Its counterpart number 208 then provides the word-count to the location of the term ‘war-engine’, which exploded at the Aldebaran 10*1’ Gemini point, where 143 and 208 meet on the circumference of the circle.
One last note: on the holograph ms, the page with the Cipher has 89 words on it outside of the Cipher itself (excluding the verse numbers and page number, obviously written in later). Of course, 89 appears in the Cipher. If we include those 28 glyphs, there are 117 ‘words’ on the page of the ms. 117 = “a war-engine”.

@threefold31 I'd say we're moving beyond the limits of Time and into higher dimensional patterning, a higher echelon beyond straightforward astrology. Also, personally I find it interesting that in my own chart Pluto goes direct just after I was born, or thereabouts, and considering the relation of this to the charts which transmute seconds to days, or whatever, etc., I'm sure it has some meaning in regards to this statement as well. For me, at least, all is layered. AASB, they say.
Edit: Now, what will really interest me, is who will claim post number 123456?
Hm, can't seem to edit that post again, guess I may be the lucky one.
Catapulting the stars requires the efficiency of fusion for maximal acceleration; we are accelerating toward a higher tier of dimensional effulgence. After all, that's where the Chefs, or is it Chiefs, reside.
There are plenty of people who have uttered Words, and those Words may bring something in to the current or Aeon, but I think some people confuse claimsof aeon enhancing Words with claims of uttering the Word of the Aeon. Xeper, Kaos, Synesis, Imperium, Aletheia, and more,are all Words uttered by others, all the condensation of a concept in to a single Word, as each Word is,but, while a couple,not all, of these utterers may claim them to be, not the Word of a new Aeon, but a Word to bring something in to the Aeon.

None are saved by a Name. Will is in Effort. Perdurabo, after all. Who has endured? The last great sage was Dion Fortune. She's been dead dyin' for an age. So I care not of Aeons or Ages. Nor Sages. I Am the Stars. I am not their slave.

I have no idea where you derive such a notion. The word momentum is ultimately related to Time through its Latin root movimentum, a moment, derived from movere, to move. In one sense, all aeons are related to Time and thus movement.
Nevertheless, the Word of the Aeon is Katalysis and its value can be easily derived from the Cipher. Keeping in line with the geometric theme of this thread, the sum of the Cipher is 351, which is the 26th triangular number, thus the ‘mystic number’ of the 26th path, which is the Hebrew letter Ayin, meaning an Eye. Thus, it is no surprise that the solution of the Cipher involves the bull’s eye of Aldebaran, and the associated pentagon of Nuit that indicates OPSIS, the Eye. Ain is also the name of the companion star to Aldebaran, the left eye of the Bull, taking its name from the Arabic word for Eye.
Taking the sum of the numbers, the letters, and the numbers and letters combined, the three totals have the following 22 divisors:
143 = 1 + 11 + 13 + 143 = 168
208 = 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 13 + 16 + 26 + 52 + 104 + 208 = 434
351 = 1 + 3 + 9 + 13 + 27 + 39 + 117 + 351 = 560
Totals = 168 + 434 + 560 = 1162 = Katalysis

The Circumference of the circle indicated by the Cipher Triangle is ~793. This in turn has an unusual numerical property.
As Nichomachus illustrated in his Introductio Arithmetica of ca. 100 CE, one way to classify the integers is a threefold schema:
- Abundant numbers, whose proper divisors sum to more than the number
- Deficient numbers, whose proper divisors sum to less than the number
- Perfect numbers, whose proper divisors sum to the number itself.
The last category is the rarest, and includes 6, 28, 496, 8128, etc.
The first category results in the Abundance of a number being the excess beyond the number. For example, 24 is Abundant because its factors are 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 6 + 8 + 12 = 36, so its Abundance is 12.
The second category results in the Deficiency of a number, being the leftover once the divisors are summed. In the case of 793, the divisors are 1 + 13 + 61 = 75, and the deficiency is 718, the number of the Stele of Revealing.
So, we have a way of grouping any Deficient number into the sum of its divisors and the remainder. In the case of the Circumference which is symbolic of Nuit and equals 793, the divisors equal 75, which is NUIT in Hebrew as נויט, and the deficiency is 718, the number of the Stele. This shows that the value of the Circumference is tied to Nuit via both the gematria of verse 2:3 (which is 793) and the sum of the factors of that gematria (which is 75). The remainder is precisely a number mentioned in the text of Liber Legis (which is 718).

Now we return to the idea of the Right Triangle that solves the Cipher, and use this same method with our new pair of numbers:
A right triangle with legs of 75 and 718 has a hypotenuse of 721.906. This then becomes the diameter of a circle whose circumference is 2267.936
We then round this up to 2268, a number of great significance: it is exactly the gematria of the non-Cipher portion of verse 2:76
2268 = What meaneth this, o prophet? Thou knowest not; nor shalt thou know ever. There cometh one to follow thee: he shall expound it. But remember, o chosen one, to be me; to follow the love of Nu in the star-lit heaven; to look forth upon men, to tell them this glad word.
