(I wanted to keep my post count at 666 forever but I guess I can't 🙂 ) Thanks for the replies. You can try experimenting with layering the...

Thanks again for providing all this info, fascinating. A "transformative upgrade of consciousness" is certainly something I'll be pondering over...

OK, here is an early version of this composite image. It still needs a lot of work to clean it up, but its promising. (just posting it for goo...

The last one of these updates (for now): If you were wondering what the peculiar coloured objects on the offering table were: It seems t...

So though this dude's main form is the Sphinx he can also appear as a falcon, this will be relevant in a minute. On the Stele of Revealing is depict...

Did you watch it, can you give us a rundown?

Thanks for the Black Krim recommendation, here's the result: Not bad. I've grown "black" tomatoes before, can't remember if this type was amon...

@shiva Shhh 🤫 , don't jinx it! Now is the time to wait patiently to see if kidneyhawk wishes to reply. If you post images to an image hostin...

Egyptian religious art used 6 main colours: white, black, red, green blue and yellow. You can see in the Stele of Revealing that there's not much colo...

* a duck waddles into an old thread and gives it a bump with his beak * @kidneyhawk Thanks for providing the info about the "entity", its all ...

You've probably noticed how hard egg yolk can dry when you've left some dirty plates lying around.

(Duck) eggs.

I was reading about these pigments while researching Egyptian art. Its true they did sometimes use ground-up gems along with natural pigments, so its ...

Hmm... you have given me an idea which will probably be a solution to this problem should I not receive a reply from the museum. You may remember a fe...

Thanks for the replies. I can try "nagging" the museum a bit more, so far I've just emailed them at the address shown on this page (which I assume is ...

I was intrigued so I looked it up: Very cool! I will have to build my own Abbey and Boleskine in Minecraft. 🙂 Did someone mention a du...

@christibrany Yes, that's what I was going for, of course. 😊 Thanks for posting the story, I hadn't really read any of his stuff before so that was...

That sounds rather familiar. Now where did I read something like it? 🤔

It could be read that way but then it would imply that only the comment should be on handmade paper and the rest of the book not, which seems a bit od...

As I expected, its another one of the "commandments" of AL that was only vaguely defined by Aiwass and never clarified by AC later on (nothing about t...

Ah, I see. Apparently these were called "Red Letter Bibles", the words spoken by Jesus were in red. So in Liber AL's case do we know what parts shou...

Oh, I see: this is where we get the word "rubric". This practice of highlighting in red started in ancient Egypt, carried on through the Middle Ages a...

So why is the "red ink" important for the printing of Liber AL and what parts of the book should be in red? Did Crowley write anything on this? I have...

@shiva This way up he's holding a couple of pistols:

@runelogix Ah yes, the "sigil" formed by the circle squared. Here's an updated version: There maybe more of these "sigils" hidden away. Look...

This is a fun one I noticed while looking at primes and semiprimes and 71: 71st prime = 353, can we find another prime to add so we get 666? Yes, th...

I'm not all that familiar with AOS but having read that passage in the OP again I'm imagining what he's saying is intended with a dark sense of humour...

(an update as I got timed out) My googling lead me to what I believe is the OP's blog (I hope he/she/they don't mind me posting the link): ...

@michael-staley Possibly this one: An album cover by some metal band from what I can tell.

Hey, that's really cool. 🙂 I've noticed others have had a lot of success with the A=1...Z=26 method, and I've noticed a couple nice ones with it like ...

The old fashioned term for telepathy was "thought transference". From "The Key to Theosophy", 1889: The time is not far distant whenthe World of Sci...

@iztrttx I don't know if Crowley spent much time developing "telepathic" abilities or wrote much about it but these abilities were the kind of thing...

I found an online calculator for this that makes this boring task a lot easier: I tried it with a few number sequences, 666 doesn't appear al...

Probably not worth making a new thread for this so I'll just dump this "fascinating factoid" here in this old thread. LAM = 71 (lamed 30, alef 1, m...

Reminds me of this Zelda tune:

@markus may have something to say on this, I remember he left an interesting comment on another thread. Posted by: @markus "Contradiction is th...

@shiva I'm sure we could invoke something too if we could all agree on something worth invoking.

Looks like we have a new forum topics/posts column but the old one is still there, making things a bit narrow. I guess one of these columns is unneces...

Thanks! 😀

The Dogon tribe and Sirius B?

A lot of effort someone must have gone to, putting hats on them all like that.

Thanks. I made Nuit's two hands shown based on other depictions of her. Its not clear if this is entirely accurate but there are some faint li...

OK, finally go it all traced out, just a bit of fine tuning to do now. A preview in jpg form:

@christibrany Thanks, these Steles are quite a fascinating subject and some of them are quite beautiful. One of the more memorable ones from my stel...
