Do what thou Wilt shall be the
whole of the Law.
Cast thy Circles thrice about, or so it is said. And so we are to open three Aires consecutively to come to an aspect of Godhead.
We begin with the 30th Aire and end with the First Aire. And so the Point (which is Hadit) is progressively beheld as a Circle (which is Nuit). We exist within.
We are moved as a point. In this way, movement is simple and easy and seems to come from within. Yet each point is ever part of the Circle. The points are infinite, and each is part of the One and None (Zero). This is how God expresses Itself through Itself.
The Enochian Angelic Keys, rightly used, open the Gates of Understanding to the Cities of Wisdom. They “unlock” the Crown, as the Natal Crown is Illumined, and bring the Childe beyond the Crown to Nuit.
There are 48 Gates of Understanding. Of these, 31 of the Gates are opened by rightly making the Calls of the 30 Aires. The other 17 Gates are opened by making right use of the Calls of the First and Third through 18th of the Angelic Keys. The Second and 19th Keys are used in succession to open the 30 Aires, making 31 Keys in total (which is the number of Nuit, who is “LA” or Not).
The Aires are aspects of the Yechidah, which is the Soul of All. Although each Aire has correspondence to an aspect of the Tree of Life, the Aires extend beyond the Watchtowers of the Universe and encompass or encircle them. Such is the Womb of Nuit, and the Mouth of Her Chalice giving Life to Her Beloved Children within. Such is the embrace of our Lady of the Stars who moves us from without and within.
An account of each Aire is given below, but first we speak of nature of the First and Second Angelic Keys.
The First Key is a Call of Him, invoking the Powers of the Male aspects of the Universe. The Third through 18th Keys are Elemental in Nature, and call upon Spirit to Crown the Work of the passing period, and open the Eye to the Work of the coming period. They are rightly used to herald in the Solar Tides (generally just before the Tide change) and the Solar Cycles (generally just before the Sun and Moon conjoin in a Sign).
The Second Key is a Call of Her, invoking the Female aspects of the Universe. This Key may be used alone to invoke the Powers of the Lower Mother. Alternatively, the Key is used before making the Call of the 30 Aires, which is the 19th Key (varied as appropriate by inserting the Name of the Aire at the proper point in the Call). The Second and 19th Keys open the Womb of Nuit beyond the Male aspects of the Universe. This is the Soul beyond the Neschamah, i.e., the Yechidah Itself.
We now proceed into the Womb of Nuit. Amen.
The
30th Aire (
The 29th Aire (RII). This Aire encompasses the Spheres numbered 4, 5 and 6 on the Tree of Life in Malkuth. It has correspondence with Second Order matters, just as the 30th Aire has correspondence with First Order matters. The Higher encompasses and moves the lower. This is the Great Order of the Universe as shown by the arrangement of the Aires and the Sephiroth, the Female and the Male, all under One God – ARARITA. Reference is made to the Yitziratic Hexagram, which is a tool to be used to experience and equilibrate the Male energies expressed in this Aire and manifesting below. These energies are nearing their final form, and are heavy as they go forth into the material plane below. We are reminded that we are still working with the Tree of Life in Malkuth, which concerns Earthly matters. The Aspiration of the Soul moves the animal within the Childe. The Life force is communicated through this Aire to the last Aire where it manifests. The lower astral plane is at issue, which is still dark as we have not yet moved in the present journey to the Tree of Life in Yesod. This Aire concerns the Initiation of the Childe of Malkuth. The influence of the Second Order descends upon the Childe moving the Childe to rise above the physical plane, by focusing the Childe’s Eye upon God (by whatever name you call God). In our Sanctuary’s System of Initiation, the representative of the Second Order to whom the Childe is to initially pray to for initiation is the Childe’s Holy Guardian Angel. As has been explained in other papers of the Sanctuary, right focus of the Eye on the Love of God and your Angel will assist in setting the Pentagram aright within the Childe’s Sphere. Reference is also made to the Pentagram Formula for the First Order, which is so important to learn to rightly equilibrate the energies and organize your Sphere, so the energies may run through harmoniously and the Sphere is prepared for higher initiation. And so we see Yitzirah manifesting our Earth. Amen.
The 28th Aire (BAG). This Aire encompasses the Spheres numbered 1, 2 and 3 on the Tree of Life in Malkuth. From this, we see the Influence of the Supernals and the Holy Third Order descending into Yitzirah. We are dealing with the “top” of the Tree of Life in Malkuth. Let this cause the Eye to look not down, but up. For what is shown here is God’s Presence and Power in the First and the Last Trees, encompassing All. The Aires are the Soul of Nature encircling the Male aspects of Creation. They form the Body of God in which the Male aspects manifest. They form the Planes or Worlds through which God moves from the perspective of each Sephira. An Aire which encompasses the Spheres numbered 1, 2 and 3 (as this Aire does) reveals God from an Atziluthic and Briatic perspective. An Aire which encompasses the Spheres numbered 4, 5 and 6 reveals God from a Yitziratic perspective. An Aire encompassing lower Spheres reveals God in lower planes. We are concerned here with the Tree of Life in Malkuth. This is contained in the Malkuth of the Tree of Life in Yesod. This Tree is, in turn, contained in the Malkuth of the Tree of Life in Hod. This continues to be the case up the Trees of Life until we come to the Tree of Life in Kether. As noted in connection with the 30th Aire, the Malkuth of this Tree (named Ygdrasil) contains entire Universe below IT. Thus we behold Malkuth as a direct link connecting God and man. This is a Great Mystery of Malkuth, which is truly God’s Kingdom. There is no separation between God and man except in the consciousness of man. God is here manifesting through us. We are God’s hands on Earth. Malkuth will no longer appear as part of any of the Aires which follow in this Return Journey up through the Aires. Rather, its role or function is to unite as described. From this, we see that every aspect of the Universe is connected and an expression of that which precedes it. We, therefore, journey through the Aires to Godhead. Amen.
Additional Commentary: As we move through the Aires, the Sphere must unformulate on the existing plane and reformulate according to the laws of the new plane. Movement in any direction within the Great Circle is possible. Consider in this regard that a Return Journey up through the 30 Aires to reach Godhead is one “route of travel”. This is what is addressed in this paper, to provide insight into the Royal Path and Process of Initiation. However, another “route of travel” would be to commence in the Malkuth of the 30th Aire, and move in the opposite direction in the Great Circle, directly to Kether and the First Aire. And so circumambulation, either deosil (clockwise) or widdershins (counter-clockwise), may effectively serve to move the Sphere through the Planes. We now prepare to leave the Aire about the Kether of Malkuth, and move to the Aires about the Tree of Life in Yesod. P.S: As the Aires are aspects of the Goddess, so the Aires may be perceived as the Heavens surrounding the Spheres at issue. Our Journey can thus be viewed as one into the Heavens on a progressively more exalted basis.
The
27th Aire (ZAA). We
now move to the Aire around the Spheres numbered 7, 8 and 9 on the Tree of Life
in Yesod. We are concerned here with the
Moon, but in low aspect. We are dealing
with the lowest point on the Yitziratic Hexagram, and the Moon of
Witchcraft. This, however, is still an
aspect of the Moon in the Highest. Both
the Aires and the Tree of Life in Yesod have Feminine qualities, which largely
prevail. There is darkness everywhere,
the darkness brought on by ignorance.
The voices scream that the Childe only has to rightly focus the Eye to
behold first the Light and then the Holy Darkness which is veiled by the Light. The lessons here relate both to those of the
Paths of Qoph and Ayin. The Royal Path
of Initiation is before you. You simply
need to focus the Eye to see it, and step out of the darkness of ignorance and
into the Light of Divine Wisdom found on the Path. The bonds of the Great Curse of the Fall of
Man are easily lifted off, if you simply make the effort. Nuit cries to Her Children to return to
Her! She is the Moon most High and in
its lowest aspect. The Great Curse is
upon all of mankind. Your Duty is to
Reverse the Curse, first as applied to you and then to assist others in doing
so. By doing so, a new race of men and
woman are be created who walk the Earth consciously performing God’s Work and
are truly free of the Great Curse. This
is the Prayer of the Goddess, to Heal Her Children. The Love of the Goddess surrounds you. She is always there with and for you. You simply need to call to Her for insight
and guidance. Appeal to Her through your
heart. She is in your Soul. She moves you. If you seek to move rightly, opportunities
will arise. However, once the
opportunities are presented, they must be seized. There is an animal within you, which turns
the Eye down. This is part of the Great
Curse. By rightly focusing the Eye, the
animal within is washed by the Love of the Goddess so the animal serves and
does not hinder. Amen.
The 26th Aire (DES). This Aire surrounds the Spheres numbered 4, 5 and 6 on the Tree of Life in Yesod. Reference is made to Ra-Hoor-Khuit, who is further revealed in this Aire as an aspect of Nuit. It is She who is truly revealed in the First Aire as Horus, as will be shown. It is Nuit who is the True Hierophant of this New Aeon. She formulates and moves Hadit, who is a Male manifestation that in turn reveals Her. Ra-Hoor-Khuit is produced in Their Union, and moves under Their Power which is Hers. There are many Beings of many Planes, and Ra-Hoor-Khuit is a Being enthroned in Kether as the Hierophant of this New Aeon. He is a symbol of this New Aeon. Praise, Glory and Worship unto the Lord of Force and Fire. His True Nature has now been revealed. The Face of Spirit has been unveiled for the Universe to behold. The Love and Light of Nuit’s Chalice is the Love and Light of the Crowned Childe, who manifests Her and the Son. The Son is the Holy Guardian Angel, whose image is of the Six-Fold Star. The Yitziratic aspects of the Moon are highlighted in this Aire, as the perspective from Yesod is exalted. The Eye is directed upwards to the Mouth of God which speaks of the Covenant to redeem those who lift themselves up to rise above the physical and place the senses and desires in right perspective. This is how the Pentagram is set aright within a Childe of Earth. The Arrow is shot straight up the Middle Pillar by the Childe aspiring for redemption. This requires right balance of the Sphere in all directions. Let every motion strengthen your Sphere, and its organization. The formulae of the Magickal Planes are like keys to magickal locks. As the Sphere is organized according to the formula of the Plane, the Plane is unlocked which allows the energies of the Plane to run through the Sphere. Unlock the Planes from the lowest to the Highest. In this way, the center tube of the Wand of Prometheus is hallowed to allow the Fire of Spirit to run cleanly through. Amen.
Additional Commentary: For the reasons given in the Account of the 26th Aire, emphasis has been placed in the Sanctuary’s teachings on the formulae of the Planes. The Wand of God progressively manifests within the vessel of the Childe as the Sphere is organized according to the formula of each Plane. The Wand of Nuit is granted to those who return to Her.
The
25th Aire (UTI). This
Aire encompasses the Spheres numbered 1, 2 and 3 on the Tree of Life in
Yesod. It reveals the Woman of Yesod in
the most exalted sense. As we speak of
the Woman in manifestation, we speak of Babalon the Beautiful, who is a lower
aspect of Nuit but a separate Being who manifests Nuit Supernally. She appears upon High and upon low. She redeems Her wicked Children by turning
their Eye to Her. Only by right focus of
the Eye on Divine Love is redemption possible.
This is the sole choice of the Childe, to assert the animal will to focus
the Eye. All else follows from
there. When the Eye is rightly focused,
the Childe is fed by Her in ways which nurture the Childe along the
The 24th Aire (NIA). This Aire is about the Spheres numbered 7, 8 and 9 on the Tree of Life in Hod. Initiation is the theme, as Hod and Netzach are balanced and the Water is separated from the Fire. This Work is accomplished by Art. The Eye is on the Woman in the form of the Daughter, whose thoughts and emotions are revealing the Son who is the Holy Guardian Angel and the issue of the Woman. Love, Love, Love, All is accomplished by Love. Love sweetens the animal soul and focuses and concentrates the animal will. Love washes and restores calm and peace. It tempers the Fire of Will, when tempering is appropriate. Love is the focus of the Work, and what is attained in the Work. Love is the beginning, and Love is the end, which is never ending. The lesson of Love is to Love, and to attain through Love. Love All as God for All is of God. Love the animal within you, and wash it with Love so it may be tamed and placed in right service. Enough cannot be said about the importance of Love in this World and in the Initiation process. It is the fundamental force driving everything. When we have Love, we have everything. When we don’t seem to, we feel empty. However, Love is found within. It is always with you. Divine Love abides in your Soul. Turn the Eye inwards and, in doing so, look outwards. See through the Eye of God. Every moment is an opportunity to express the Love which is in you. The Aires are aspects of the Goddess, and is not the Goddess Love. Love is Venus. Will is Mercury. Let Love and Will balance throughout the Planes, and so the Great Order of the Universe is ever changing in a state of perfect equilibrium. This equilibrium derives from Love, and is attained in Initiation by Loving. The Will then may be concentrated and directed to its end, like an Arrow shot by a skilled Archer. We believe ourselves to be the Archer shooting the Arrows of our Will. However, we are not. We simply choose Love or we do not. We ascend the Planes and the Aires by rightly focusing the Eye on Love. We may look for arrows in the quiver and arm the bow, but an Arrow of True Will is shot only by God’s Hand into and out of Love. Amen.
The
23rd Aire (TOR). This
Aire is about the Spheres numbered 4, 5 and 6 on the Tree of Life in Hod. Crushed we are by the weight of this World,
yet before us everywhere is God. We look
and there appears to be No-God. However,
Being is found in Not-Being. This is the
Mystery of the Childe of Nuit most exalted, which is foreshadowed by the
Mystery of the Childe of Kether who finds the True Self in Selflessness. But why such Holiness is such an early Aire
as TOR?! Are not the Mysteries revealed
in the First Order and progressively exalted?!
No sooner than we lift ourselves up from Earth do we find ourselves
flying, no soaring in the Womb of the Goddess.
We look from Earth to the Gods in Heaven, to the Moon, to Mercury, to
Venus and to the Sun, as the Childe climbs the Tree of Life seeking the Knowledge
and Conversation of the Holy Guardian Angel.
Are not the lessons always the same?!
Invoke, equilibrate, evolve.
Invoke, equilibrate, evolve.
Invoke, equilibrate, evolve. When
we invoke, we call energies or forces into the Sphere. Invoke often.
When we equilibrate, we balance and assimilate, which involves an
absorption and integration of the energies into the Sphere. Equilibration opens the Eye to the energies,
and assists us in attaining a more Universal perspective. The Sphere evolves from this process so it
may be progressively identified with the Holy One and the Holy None (or
Zero). The work begins with you who you
perceive as separate from the rest of the Universe. You are a Star, unique, yet an indivisible
part of the Whole. You shine, but the
Light is not your own. Your Light is
God’s Light. Your Life is God’s
Breath. Initiation involves a stripping
away of the layers of the self to arrive at the True Self, which is your
The 22nd Aire (LIN). This Aire is about the Spheres numbered 1, 2 and 3 on the Tree of Life in Hod. We behold God in man. Dark may God appear, as the Curse of the Fall of Man has confounded man by his senses. The senses are the chains to the physical world, which veil the Spiritual Being indwelling man. Ignorance is abounding among man, and ignorance is the darkness which veils the Light and Her Holiness. Yet God is here now. God and the Devil are One. You pick which teaches you. It is all about the focus of the Eye, and placing your self in God’s service. Even the darkness teaches through pain and suffering, which are engines of truth and beauty and turn the Eye to God. Free your self by turning your Eye to God and ask for liberation on the Royal Path of Initiation. Proceed with courage into the dark so that you may find the Light and the Love which manifests IT. Is not all of life a lesson in pain and suffering?! Lift off the bonds of darkness, transcend the physical and notions of personal separateness and find Unity in God. The Path of Pleasure which man treads provides short-term gratification but is unrewarding or unsatisfying over the long-term. There is more to this life than the Path of Pleasure. There comes a time when the Path of Pleasure ends and the Path of Divine Joy begins. Tread now the Path of Divine Joy, transcend human sorrow and find True Life in the Love and Light of God. We all have our unique course of evolution as a Star. There are no mistakes - only lessons. Use all that you have experienced, gather your resources and undertake the Holy Work with courage. There will be obstacles and ordeals. Things must be set right, equilibrated and experienced with each step. You are called to duty now, and may enjoy the pleasures of Heaven and Earth in the course of your service. There is no-thing to give up and every-thing to gain. Focus, however, not on gain but on duty and, thereby, the duty will be rightly performed glorifying God. Amen.
The 21st Aire (ASP). This Aire is about the Spheres numbered 7, 8 and 9 on the Tree of Life in Netzach. As we travel through the Aires, we continue to experience the Spirits of God on an ever more exalted basis. The Aires are the Feminine aspects surrounding the Male manifestations of the Sephiroth. The Sephiroth also have male and female characteristics, and we behold them as such, but they are positive manifestations in the Aires. The Aires contain the Wisdom of the Aeons and are the substance flowing from the Robe of the High Priestess of Atu II and forming the rivers flowing through the Tarot. We behold God upon high nurturing all below with the Holy Water, which are the Waters of Creation. Love nurtures as Venus reappears, here in the form of human love. The animal will is seen only as an extension of God’s will, which is easily washed and placed in service of God for those who love God. Human love may thereby be transformed into a form of bhakti or practice of Loving God who is seen in all. Every thing you do, every task you perform, every thought, word and deed must be placed in service. The Wisdom and Love of God will be your guide, if you allow it to be. Your Magick is practiced in all aspects of how you live your life, and through the symbols you are given – your family, friends and even casual acquaintances. To Love God is a means of serving God. The Love washes, and allows the Love and Light of God to shine through you and help all those around you. You then become a Source of Light and Love to the Universe, and assist in the healing of the human race. Is there no greater or more important task than to serve God with a loving and devoted heart?! Cannot you serve your charges best by serving God and evolving as a vessel for the Light and Love of God to shine through?! O’ my God, I behold Thy Face, and IT beams with warmth and Love. May the Light of the Divine Wisdom transform and heal us. Enlighten us through Love. Amen.
Additional Commentary: There is great difficulty in communicating an account of the Aires for different messages could be communicated based on level of Initiation. There could be many accounts of each Aire, all of which could be accurate. It is the Nature of the Female about the Male which is to be communicated in this paper, to heighten awareness as to the Nature of the Aires. Initiates will then derive their own meanings from the accounts in the context of their own initiations.
The 20th Aire (KHR). This Aire is about the Spheres numbered 4, 5 and 6 on the Tree of Life in Netzach. Venus appears as the King’s Daughter, Crowned with a Diadem of Stars. She bears the Scepter showing She has the Power of the King. The Universe responds to Her Word. As She speaks, spiral energies issue forth from Her mouth, moving what it is to be moved, fostering Justice, Balance, Harmony and Love and establishing the Law. She appears to be manifesting the Daughter in Malkuth, and at the same time She appears as the Holy Guardian Angel. She appears all at once as Father, Mother and Son manifesting the Daughter. Great power and great beauty is seen in Her. Is She not Nuit as Venus?! Is She not Nuit moving the Childe?! Is She not the Childe?! The Gunas revolve, the Wheel turns the Angels’ cry!!! They turn at Her Hand. She moves the axle which stirs the energies and causes the revolution. Change is the basis of stability. Such is the Mystery of the Childe of Chokmah. This is seen in all work below. The Childe of Chesed is to evolve into a Mighty King or Queen and then into the Virgin Daughter to continue to evolve in accord with the Formula of the Tetragrammaton, which revolves. All of Initiation involves change. All of evolution is change. All change is at Her Hand, and Her Name is Love. She is the Aires. Her Essence abides in them. She abides in All. Therefore, Love All. Is not this a task of the Childe of Chesed?! And is not Venus Love?! The message continues to repeat itself – Love rules the Universe, which is governed by IT. Initiation involves coming to know and experience different aspects of the Universe through the Holy Work, to recognize those aspects as part of your Self. Love is a means of coming to know these aspects as they abide in the Aires. The lesson is to direct and concentrate the Ruach (Mind), purified by Love, to the subject matter of the Work, and allow your prayers to be answered. The Power of Love is shown. Amen.
The
19th Aire (POP). This
Aire is about the Spheres numbered 1, 2 and 3 on the Tree of Life in
Netzach. Love is purified and exalted,
and perfectly equilibrated. The Eye is
wholly on the Shekinah, which is Supernal Love.
What are we to do with our miserable lives? Are we to patch together brief moments of
pleasure and happiness, or is there a higher purpose? In the absence of the latter, our lives seem
almost meaningless. The Angels sing
praise, glory and worship, love and devotion to the Holy Names of God. We sit, we wait for Thy Word. We endure.
We perform our work. We
struggle. We attempt to maintain right
balance and move ever so rightly along the
The 18th Aire (ZEN). This Aire is about the Spheres numbered 7, 8 and 9 on the Tree of Life in Tiphareth. Yea, the Sun in the Aires! We are reminded that the Aires concern all levels of Initiation, not just those of the Third Order. Although the Aires are Gates of Understanding to be consecutively opened by those of the Third Order to enter the Cities of Wisdom and further Illumine the Natal Crown, the Aires speak to All. As an aspect of the Goddess, they always speak to Love and to Death, as the lower is washed and evolves into the Higher. Such is always the case. The Childe of Earth evolves into the Virgin Daughter, and then into the Mother and the Father (the Woman and the Man). Eventually, the Childe’s Star is consumed by the Fire of Hadit, and the Childe attains to the True Self through Selflessness. Beyond this, Not-Being may be attained through Being. In all cases, however, the Childe on Earth remains a vessel and, from this perspective, remains a Childe. Within the vessel, the Glory of God in the Highest may shine. The Invisible Sun of Kether shines in the Heart of Tiphareth and Illumines All. We are also reminded that, as the Childe evolves, the Childe’s role is to serve as a Redeemer to the Children of Earth. This role may be fulfilled in private/silence or publically, but in all cases great activity is required. It is in the nature of the Work to teach and to Heal. The First and Second Orders are about evolving the Little Tree which the Childe embodies. As Initiation progresses beyond Tiphareth, the Work becomes more about others and less about the Initiate until the Third Order when the Childe has been Redeemed and now works as part of the Body of God to redeem the rest of mankind. The Sun brings Light and Life to man. So does the Son, and so do the Mother and Father and the Holy One who moves All of them. The Sun shines, and the Glory is ever more exalted as Initiation progresses and we move through the Aires closer to the First. Be the Sun. Amen.
The 17th Aire (TAN). This Aire is about the Spheres numbered 4, 5 and 6 on the Tree of Life in Tiphareth. Perfect balance, Justice, Initiation – these are the themes. The Fire and Water create perfect balance on the Middle Pillar, so the Sun may proceed with the Blessings of All above. And so it is for the Initiate who has entered the King’s Chamber in Tiphareth and become a Young King or Queen. There is direct correspondence with Kether – the Natal Crown shines brightly. The Universe responds to the Word of the King spoken in the Voice of the Master. Perfect balance is required for Initiation, and so is Justice. We get our just rewards, and due penalty when so appropriate. Nature is just but not necessarily fair. There is no getting away with anything. The Eye of God is always upon you. There is no one to cheat but your self. There are accounts which must be maintained and balanced. It is best that they never get out of balance. Truth, honesty and fair dealing are always required in all aspects of life. Unfortunately, for many of us, we learn this late in life, and a great deal must be dealt with to transcend the karma. However, once we rise above Yitzirah, when the Little Tree is broken, karma is transcended. As it is said, there is nothing besides a “little pile of dust” which enters the City of the Pyramids in Binah. The remnants of once was is the “dust” of the Childe, who becomes Nemo – the Childe is no longer a man but an embodiment of the Great Mother in Binah and part of the Body of God. There is Unity in the Supernal Realm and so there is right balance – perfect equilibrium – at all times. The Childe’s Initiation proceeds by serving as a receptacle of the Fire of the All-Father, and so the pile of dust which enters the City of the Pyramids is burnt to a White ASh and placed in an Urn in the Tomb of the All-Father. Death is followed by Life, as the Childe expresses Will and Chia – the Life Force. And so the King speaks the Word and brings Justice and Liberation to man. Amen.
The
16th Aire (LEA). This
Aire is about the Spheres numbered 1, 2 and 3 on the Tree of Life in
Tiphareth. Sacrifice is perceived as a
part of Initiation, but there really is no-thing to sacrifice. All is of God. Your life is not your life, it is God’s life
to be lived as God so Wills. There is no
desire but God’s Desire. There is no
will besides God’s Will. There is a
human choice to direct the Eye to God, or not, which is bestowed with the Great
Curse. The animal will directs the Eye,
and then the Childe is moved by God’s Will accordingly. There is a sacrifice of the Holy Guardian
Angel when the Little Tree is broken and the Childe is set upon the Throne of
the Mother. This, however, represents an
accomplishment of the Great Work of the Angel, and generally results in a
further illumination of the Angel’s Crown and an elevation of the Angel to a
Higher Being (who may be appointed thereafter to further work with the new
Childe of Binah but as counsel or a Secret Chief). What then is sacrifice? As we move along the
The 15th Aire (OXO). This Aire is about the Spheres numbered 7, 8 and 9 on the Tree of Life in Geburah. There are multiple aspects of this Aire, all emphasizing the need to equilibrate the Supernal Energies as they flow through the Childe. We are reminded here that the Childe is a Holy Vessel. Through the Childe’s Work, the Childe may Reverse the Great Curse and reclaim His Starry heritage. The Childe’s body then evolves as a Pure Vessel, through which the Fire and Will of God will run though untainted. Geburah reflects the Element of Fire on the Tree of Life, as Chokmah expresses IT. A Childe of Geburah takes the Oath to do only True Will, and nothing else. The Childe of Chokmah expresses that Will in all the Childe does. We see here another Spirit of God in a purer Aire. As Chesed is Mercy, Geburah is Severity. Water and Fire are balanced in the Air. We see God acting through the evolving Childe who becomes a more exalted and transparent vessel for the Light and Love of God to shine through. Unswerving devotion to the Work is emphasized as the Eye always remains on the Work as these exalted states of consciousness are attained. We behold the God of Change – the God of All motion in the Universe. We behold God in our own motion – our thoughts, words and deeds. Who moves you Childe? Is it not God?! We turn our Eye unto Thee but it is Thee who so moves the Eye when the animal Childe has been placed in service of Thee. Initiation is a simple process once the basic tenets are grasped. Then it is simply a matter of doing – abiding by the Holy Oaths. The language of the Holy Oaths is simple enough. Each Oath is consistent with all your other obligations to mankind. So take them! Fulfill the roles which have been appointed for you by fulfilling your Holy Duties to God. Do what must be done! This is the Law of Thelema – Do True Will, express IT. There will be ordeals, but you must endure with courage to the Glory of God. Amen.
The
14th Aire (UTA). This
Aire is about the Spheres numbered 4, 5 and 6 on the Tree of Life in
Geburah. We behold Babalon manifesting
that which is below Her and Her Womb in which all change below occurs. There appears to be that which is above and
that which is below. However, there really
is no above or below. All is One. The Grand Illusion of the Abyss which
separates God and man is beheld, but cast out – there is no separation, man and
God are One. The former has simply
forgotten ITS Name. No man or NEMO is
initiated as a Childe of Binah only when the Little Tree is gone and the
embodied Starry structure is recognized to be none other than God’s. In casting down such as in the Great Fall of
Man, the Little Tree is imposed upon man (which is nothing other than a
reflection of the Great Tree) to be overcome.
Yea, action is required of man to do this. Work is required to overcome the Grand
Illusion. No one is really harmed by the
Great Curse as there really is no one other than God. The experience of the adventure is heightened
by the interposition of the animal soul in the Childe, with all of its animal desires,
to see if the Childe has the strength to overcome the animal within and perform
the Work. The Childe will eventually be
redeemed. The Childe will Return by
action or by physical death. The Holy
Mother awaits Her wicked little Children who She nourishes with Light and Love,
but how few actually take action to further their own redemption. Liberation is just around the corner. You simply need to take the walk. Your voices carry great power if only you can
learn to speak Truth. It all seems so hard,
but it is not. You are NEMO with dirt on
your clothes. You just need to clean-up
to get to the
The 13th Aire (ZIM). This Aire is about the Spheres numbered 1, 2 and 3 on the Tree of Life in Geburah. While we behold the Sword of Chesed extending into Assiah, we also behold a coming together on the Return Journey through the Aires. We are One and come from None. There is no difference between us upon High. We are all the Sons and Daughters of Nuit and Hadit. Let the Power of Discrimination be sharpened so you see through God’s Eye. When the Sword flames with the Fire of God, the Childe may speak in the Voice of the Master in furtherance of the Great Work. There is division below the Supernal Plane and Unity above Yitzirah. That Little Tree which you embody simply has to be shed, to rid your consciousness of the Yitziratic aspects that cause you to perceive a separation between God and man. God and man are One. Man is One. Therefore, nurture, support and Love your Brothers and Sisters, and especially your charges, all as God. We all have our gardens to tend to, our appointed roles to fulfill. We practice Magick through how we lead our lives. As magickal and spiritual evolution progresses, the power to see and dispose of things according to God’s Will evolves. The meanings of events, the foreshadowing of the future, all unfolds. You see God’s purpose which gives meaning. The Eye opens by God’s Hand. Similarly, the Power to Act is something which evolves in those utterly devoted to God’s Work and the Great White Brotherhood. We are all equal under God, but our Work and life circumstances differ. By serving as a Source of Light and Love to our charges, we fulfill our Holy Duties and promote Universal harmony. Everyone’s efforts are important. Live and Love! Life is about the experience – learn from all you have to draw upon. Life is also about the Great Work - the work of man is secondary and is only important once placed in the context of the Great Work. Work for God, and may the Blessings and Power of God be with you. Amen.
Additional
Commentary: The Aires are now seen as an entirely separate Initiatory System into
the Female of the Universe that complements the Initiation Process of a Member
of the Holy Third Order into the Male-Spiritual aspects of the Universe, which
is initial subject of Initiation. The
quality of the Aires can, however, be communicated to all the Children of
Earth, as the Childe works with the Female from the inception of the Initiation
Process, though the Male and not so much the Female appears to be the subject
of the experiments. Within each Aire, an
infinite number of subjects may be addressed.
Hence, it is said the Aires contain the Knowledge of the Aeons and form
the Robe of the High Priestess. It is the
perspective of the Aire which “flavors” the response. As we see through All, the Male aspects show
the Female aspects, and vice versa. The
Aires may also be used to affect a magickal/mystickal alchemy within a Childe
who is an Adept before they are used to open 30 of the 48 Gates of
Understanding. Any such operation would
be carefully guided by the Angel so only those Aires most appropriate to
complete the operation are experienced in proper sequence and at the right
times. This would vary from Childe to
Childe based on the Childe’s starry make-up.
The Aires are also used to deepen the perspective of the Childe of Nuit,
Most Exalted, who is Not.
The
12th Aire (LOE). This
Aire is about the Spheres numbered 7, 8 and 9 on the Tree of Life in
Chesed. The Word establishes the Law,
and is communicated down the Tree and though the Planes. And so the Word flows into manifestation
through our thoughts, words and deeds.
The Spoken Word carries Great Divine Power when the Crown is worn, the
Sword (or Wand) Flames and the Word is spoken in the Voice of the Master. Therefore, speak rightly, for only right
speech which is furtherance of the Great Work, that is in accord with the Law
and spoken by God (at times through the Childe) carries with it the Power of God. See yourself in your Holy Form, wearing the
The 11th Aire (IKH). This Aire is about the Spheres numbered 4, 5 and 6 on the Tree of Life in Chesed. The Virgin Daughter is being prepared. She is still the Daughter, as she still embodies the Little Tree. However, the Tree has been purified by Love and consecrated by Will. The Balances have been attained. The Mighty King or Queen has evolved into a Perfect Childe, and the Signs of the Work have changed to be that of the Babe of the Abyss. The NOX formula saves. The next Aire shall take the Childe deep into the Abyss. The Childe now stands at its edge. But let us remember that the Abyss is the Grand Illusion which separates man and God. To “cross the Abyss”, the Childe must dispense with this illusion. And is not the initial source of all illusion the Moon. This is learned when initially working with the Path of Qoph. The Eye must be rightly focused to avoid distraction and illusion. There is the matter of the Little Tree, which must be broken before the Childe may first embody the Great Tree. Then, even the Great Tree falls, as the Childe’s vessel is drained and is filled with the Essence of the Great Mother. Let us consider then that the Little Tree is a reflection of the Great Tree. As a reflection, it creates an illusion of separateness. There is no separation. The Grand Illusion that there is a separation of man and God must be cast out. Every expression of your being is God expressing Itself through you. There is no you. There is no personal will or action. There may seem to be. However, the only choice is how to focus the Eye, up or down. The Yitziratic aspects of the Childe have now been “buffed” - the Ruach purified to such a degree that it is now being perceived to be the Ruach Elohim. What precedes thought is the Intuition of the Neschamah. Hence is it said that the answer precedes the question, for what formulates the question in the mind of the Childe already has the answer to communicate. Pure and Perfect, the Childe leaps with Love. Amen.
Additional Commentary. There is only “dust” of the Childe at this point in the Work, the Childe realizing all being to be wholly Divine. A Jupiter Talisman is prepared during the course of the Work of the Childe of Chesed to purify and consecrate the Childe (which is the true focus of the preparation of the Talisman) as Pure and Perfect. The human ego is seen as purely Divine expression. The Childe is no longer “human” strictly speaking but a Divine vessel, leaping into the Arms of the Great Mother in Binah, who shall make the Childe part of Her Holy Essence. The Supernal Mother manifests Chesed in Her Womb. Thus, the leap does not necessitate a fall, but a shedding of any remaining human aspects to allow the necessary transformations to occur and the Childe to be exalted and rise in the Sign of Mater Triumphant, to the Glory of God.
The 10th Aire (ZAX). This Aire is about the Spheres numbered 1, 2 and 3 on the Tree of Life in Chesed. We see the Supernal Triad taking the Childe through the Abyss and into Binah. As it has been said, the Abyss is the Grand Illusion that must be cast out. There is a separation of God and man only in the consciousness of man. The Childe has been made Chaste. The Ceremony shown on Atu VI entitled the Lovers now occurs. The Little Tree is broken, and the Holy Guardian Angel (which seemingly stood between the Mother and the Daughter) is sacrificed, all by the Hand of the Holy One. There now stands No-thing between the Childe and the Mother. With the Eye wholly focused on the Shekinah, the Childe is lifted up by God to the Gates of the Supernal Realm, which is the Heavenly Eden. The Childe, no longer “human” strictly speaking, temporarily embodies the Great Tree. The Supernal Triangle is perceived on the lower Briatic Plane (apex in the West). As the Childe rises up through the Supernal Triangle into the Supernal Realm, the Great Tree is left below and the Childe enters in the Essence of the Mother. And so the Virgin Daughter is redeemed and set upon the Throne of the Mother, and thereby Becomes the Mother. All below the Supernal Realm is left behind. The Childe’s vessel is filled with the Prana of the Great Mother in Binah. The Childe no longer embodies any Tree. The Childe is now part of the Body of God, which directly receives and transmits God’s Will as a Compassionate Witness to God’s Work. God’s Hand is seen in every-thing, and so Understanding evolves. The Sphere must be perfectly organized and evolved on all Planes below before such exalted transformations may occur. Crossing the Abyss is not difficult for no effort is then required of the Childe. The work is accomplished in advance. You cross only by God’s Hand. Binah manifests Chesed, and so Binah has always been there waiting to receive the Childe. Return to Her. Amen.
Additional
Commentary: The Malkuth of the Tree of Life in Binah contains the Tree of Life in
Chesed. From this, we see again how the
Childe rises from Tree to Tree. It is
said that some are taken across the Abyss and enter the Malkuth of the Tree of
Life in Binah, but are never Initiated into Binah (meaning the Aires and
corresponding Spiritual Spheres thereof).
These Children sit on the banks of the City of the Pyramids desiring
Initiation and speaking of their great magickal accomplishments. Let this not be you. Be humble.
You perform no-thing of your self.
Rather, it is your True Self which Acts.
No man is Initiated into Binah, and so the Initiate of Binah is called
NEMO (meaning “no man”). Perform the
Holy Work simply out of duty and desiring nothing in return. Love God in all that you do and offer every
thought, word and deed in service of God.
The right attitude towards the Work furthers accomplishment and
Initiation.
The
9th Aire (ZIP). This
Aire is about the Spheres numbered 7, 8 and 9 on the Tree of Life in
Binah. The Childe who began the Return
Journey in Assiah has been redeemed and is brought into the Palace of the
King’s Daughter. She has Become the
Mother. Her Holy Duties now change. She is to receive from above and transmit to
that which is below. In the form of a
Childe, She experiences Heaven on Earth and Understands. She is admitted unto the Supernal Realm, and
the Garden of Eden. The focus of the Eye
changes. The Children of Earth must be
redeemed. Although the Childe’s
Initiation remains an issue, the Nature of the Work is to tend to the Childe’s
garden, to those charges which have been brought to the Childe for care and
development. They are symbols of all the
other men, women and children in this world.
By practicing Magick through the symbols we are given, we change all of
mankind. The Great Curse contains within
it a Promise for Redemption, which is fulfilled in this Aire. Every person on Earth may reclaim their
Starry heritage by taking action to do so.
All the forces of the Universe will empower, bless and protect your Work
in furtherance of this Holy Goal. The
Work of the Redeemed Childe is to redeem others. The Mother cares for Her Children. She also responds to the Father, whose Powers
manifest through Her. We are reminded
here that the Tree of Life in Binah is contained in the Malkuth of the Tree of
Life in Chokmah. By this, we see how the
Supernal Father precedes the Supernal Mother.
Yet He is Known only through Her, and She manifests the Redeemed
Childe. This is how God works on the
Earth. Glory to the Redeemed Daughter in
Malkuth. God moves through all of
us. However, we must “clean-up” before
God allows us to Return to
The 8th Aire (ZID). This Aire is about the Spheres numbered 4, 5 and 6 on the Tree of Life in Binah. The Childe of Binah now sees clearly into the Planes below, and the Role of the Holy Guardian Angel in relation to mankind. The focus is on the relations of Briah and Yitzirah. The Holy Guardian Angel is seen merely a link, albeit necessary at first, between God and man in the consciousness of man. It may seem fantastic at first that a Childe may commune directly with God. However, the Angel is God descending the Planes. God formulates and moves the Angel, as well as the Childe. The Little Tree is a reflection of the Great Tree within the Sphere of the Childe and, therefore, an illusion, just as the Abyss is the Grand Illusion. All illusion must be cast out to Return to the Womb of the Mother. It is said that too much Light is blinding. However, the Truth is simple. God is communing directly with you every moment of your life. God lives through you. You have no magickal powers or skill. Any magickal powers or skill that you may exhibit or experience are of God. It is said that the Childe of Binah experiences the Vision of Sorrow. There is no Sorrow, no pain, no suffering in the Supernal Realm. Pain and suffering occur at the junction of Briah and Yitzirah, and are engines of truth and beauty just as any other guidance we receive from God. A Childe of Binah, whose consciousness has been exalted to the Briatic Realm, sees these Yitziratic experiences as necessary to the evolution of man in relation to the Great Curse, and witnesses these phenomena with Compassion and Understanding. It is said that any Childe may take the Oath of the Childe of Binah, regardless of prior Work. This is true. However, the prior Work assists in organizing the Childe’s Sphere according to the Formulae of the Planes and cleaning it up, so the Childe’s consciousness may be progressively exalted to cast out all illusion, and the Vessel may be made Pure and Perfect for God to indwell. Amen.
The 7th Aire (DEO). This Aire is about the Spheres numbered 1, 2 and 3 on the Tree of Life in Binah. Hail unto the Goddess, who is Love. Let Her Power of Love Silence the Waters to all but Her Desire, which is His Will. Love unites Wisdom with Understanding, and tempers Will. With Love, we have every-thing which is No-Thing. How beautiful is She who is every-where and No-Where?! She is many veiled and ever-present. She continually gives of Herself to Her Children which are of Her. Project rightly in furtherance of the Great Work, and She will respond. It is He who projects. It is in Her Nature to respond. The Daughter is the Mother, manifesting Him and IT. Their blood is One. Your blood is Her blood. Drink thereof to Divine Love and Life, and be Healed thereby. The Eucharist of Blood (DM) is of great importance in the practice of Magick, especially until purity has been attained and exemption is granted from most ceremony. She awaits thee, but you cannot desire Her. To do so would entail disaster. Work nobly out of service and duty, without desire. Endure with courage as a Compassionate Witness. There is Magickal Formulae to be fulfilled in connection with each Oath for a Sephira. This has been disclosed in writings of the Sanctuary. Ask for the Eye to be opened unto the Formulae, as to the nature of the Work and how best to perform and accomplish the Work. The Childe of Binah Understands. As the Childe of Binah receives the Fire of the All-Father and moves along the Path of Daleth, the Childe, partaking of the Fire, Becomes the Scarlet Woman. The process of “baking” takes some time, but may be expedited by Understanding the process. Evolution requires the Scarlet Woman to be produced before the Childe may be transformed into a Magus. Love is the answer and the key. Wisdom is found in Understanding. She is the hallowed tube of the Wand which the Fire runs through. By serving with Love and Understanding, evolution rightly proceeds. Amen.
The
6th Aire (MAZ). This
Aire is about the Spheres numbered 7, 8 and 9 on the Tree of Life in
Chokmah. Within Her manifests the Fire,
the Will and the Glory of God. The
Symbol of Alchemical Sulphur appears showing one of the three markers
delineating the Blade, which itself is the Sigil of Fire. The Holy Tau of Ygdrasil formulates within
the Blade, thus showing the entire Universe below. The Fire is sent down this Tau moving all
below in accord with the Word, which expresses the Will and is the basis for
the Law. The only Law is to do God’s
Will. This is the Law of Thelema. Nuit’s Chalice touches the Square of the Holy
One at the Apex of the Blade, which is the Point of Rising unto the Atziluthic
Plane, where only Nuit and Hadit exist.
She formulates and moves Him. As
a result, Love is the Law. Love is under
Will only below Kether. Upon High, Love
is the sole Ruling Principle. Love
tempers Will as it is expressed. This is
further shown by the Paths leading from Chokmah (Vau, Heh and Daleth). However, this tempering does not weaken, but
strengthens the Hand of God which is felt as the Strength of Spirit. Within each Childe of Earth is a Perfect
Childe waiting to be released. The
Pentagram represents the manifest powers of the All-Father, who moves you
through your Spirit and senses. We see
here the Supernal Father moving the Childe along the
Additional Commentary: The Fire of God also causes the Ordeals of Initiation, which further purify the Initiate for progress. Every Ordeal is an opportunity. Consider all of your life events in an Initiatory context, and proceed ever to the Glory of God. Move when you hear the Word and as God Wills, and behold God’s Wisdom unfold.
The 5th Aire (LIT). This Aire is about the Spheres numbered 4, 5 and 6 on the Tree of Life in Chokmah. Great Wisdom is conveyed in this Aire for it shows correct perspective. We look to God for Initiation, to be redeemed from the pain and suffering of this World, to reclaim our Starry heritage and to Reverse the Great Curse which caused the Fall of Man. We seemingly struggle with giving “ourselves” to God, renouncing selfish works and surrendering the rewards of our work to God. However, this struggle is but illusion. It is true that our Starry structures are shown by our Natal Crowns. Your Star is unique. Nevertheless, it is an indivisible part of the Whole. It is said that the little pile of dust (representing the remnants of a Childe’s being) which entered the City of Pyramids upon being admitted as a Childe of Binah is burnt to a White “ASh” (Hebrew for fire) and placed in an Urn in the Tomb of the All-Father when the Childe is Initiated as a Childe of Chokmah. The dust, having been submitted to the Fire of the All-Father, eventually partakes of its Nature. The Urn holds, as the Magus, still of Briah, receives from Kether and then expresses. In all due course, the Fire consumes all remnants, and even the Urn disappears as the Childe ceases Becoming and enters into Being. This is all a matter of perspective. The Eye is opened by God to the Childe’s degree of Initiation. We are all pure vessels, some more evolved than others. We do no-thing in and of ourselves. We are moved by God in all ways. We first behold God through Its various aspects. The Universe is then gradually reduced down to the Holy Trinity of Nuit, Hadit and Ra-Hoor-Khuit as the Face of Spirit. However, it is Nuit above who moves All. She is the Grand Hierophant, who moves Hadit, Heru-Ra-Ha and the Magus. Babalon the Beautiful is a lower aspect of Nuit attributed to Binah. The Arrow points up in Becoming but down in Being. There is falsehood in Becoming, and Truth in Being. Your Being is in God. Amen.
The 4th Aire (PAZ). This Aire is about the Spheres numbered 1, 2 and 3 on the Tree of Life in Chokmah. We now speak of the Tomb of the All-Father and the end of Becoming. For this Aire shows further evolution of the Childe. The dust of the Childe has been burnt to a White ASh and placed in an Urn in the Tomb. The ASh is the Fire of the All-Father. The Urn is a vessel, just as the Childe is a vessel. The vessel is of God’s creation, just as the Childe is of the Body of God. The Tomb shows Death, and Life after Death as the Childe has reached the final stages of Becoming. In Becoming, we seek God. In Being, we express God’s Being. The Childe of Chokmah expresses God’s Will. In Truth, we all do this all the time. However, the Sphere of the Childe must be rightly ordered through all the Planes for the current to run cleanly through. The hallowed tube of the Wand must be clear of all obstruction for the Fire to be perfectly expressed. Even the Childe of Chokmah is of Briah. The Childe receives from Atziluth. The vessel of the Childe is filled with the Prana of the All-Father. As evolution proceeds, the Childe’s Eye is opened unto the Crown and Its True Nature. The Star of the Childe is then consumed in the Fire of Hadit, and what was seen as the Childe’s Star in Chokmah is now perceived to be that of Hadit as a Male manifestation. Change equals stability, as the current once expressed must be balanced by Love, to maintain perfect equilibrium. Further, the True Self is attained through the perfect practice of Selflessness. In Truth, you have no Star. The Star you are is simply another expression or aspect of God. You are a unique Star of God flaming brightly in the Universe. Your personality is determined by your Natal Crown. However, the Crown is ever One and can never be divided. We all embody Adam Qadmon (the Supernal Man), and express the Life of God. May your Eye open from an Atziluthic perspective and there be an end of Becoming. A.G.L.A. Amen.
The 3rd Aire (ZOM). This Aire is about the Spheres numbered 7, 8 and 9 on the Tree of Life in Kether, which is called the Holy Ygdrasil. There is Perfect Peace, Perfect Rest, as Becoming has ended in Being. There is end and beginning. The True Self is attained through Selflessness. The Sign is of Silence, followed by Triumph. There is Divine Life within the Childe of Kether, who perfectly expresses both the Light and Love of God. Thoth appears in both expressions, as the Scribe, Magician and Messenger of the Gods. We behold Thoth on the Path of Beth, which is always expressive (as is Aleph), and in Chokmah as the Magus. The Word is the Will and the basis of the Law which is carried out below. On the Holy Tau of Ygdrasil, the Squares numbered 7, 8 and 9 form a triangle around the Square numbered 10, which contains and manifests the entire Universe below. All exists by the Virtue of this Holy Tau, on which All is represented. For the Initiate, it forms a “Stairway to Heaven”, where by God an Initiate may climb through the Planes to access the Atziluthic Plane on the Square of the One, at the Apex of the Blade which meets the Apex of Nuit’s Chalice. There is No-thing but Nuit and Hadit in Atziluth, and They formulate and manifest Their many aspects below, all of which are Their Children. This includes Heru-Ra-Ha. This includes you. Your feet are in Assiah Childe, but your Crown is in Atziluth. You wear the Crown of God. You express the Light and Love of God at all times. There are no mistakes. There is nothing to forgive. You do not act. God acts through you. Born a human being, you are subject to the Great Curse, and must overcome the animal within to Reverse the Curse and reclaim your Starry heritage. There is no-thing to fear. Perform the Holy Work. Do what must be done. The Holy Work must not be left undone! Initiation awaits. The entire Universe will support you. Rise from your human existence to Divine Life, ascend the Stairway to Being. Amen.

The 2nd Aire (ARN). This Aire surrounds the Spheres numbered 4, 5 and 6 on the Tree of Life in Kether. We behold the Goddess and Her Children. She is Babalon the Beautiful. She precedes He who abides in the First Aire, who is God or IT manifesting in a Male aspect. Then, there is Godhead which abides even above the First Aire, who is Nuit, the Highest and Truest Form of the Goddess who encompasses Him of the First Aire. The entire Universe abides in Nuit’s Womb. He who abides in the First Aire manifests therein, and Babalon the Beautiful who abides in the Second Aire receives Him. It is Heru-Ra-Ha, who is also Ra-Hoor-Khuit and Horus in varying aspects, that abides in the First Aire. He is the Childe of Nuit and Hadit, and Babalon the Beautiful, who we adore in all of our Holy Rites, is His Beloved Concubine. Babalon, as a Feminine aspect of the Universe, is a lower aspect of Nuit, yet Most Holy. The Universe is formulated and moved by the Light and Love flowing from Nuit’s Chalice. The Chalice formulates the Blade, and the Holy Tau of Ygdrasil therein from which All of Creation flows. Babalon is the Goddess encompassing all below the Lord of the New Aeon. Nuit abides upon High, and then appears as Babalon and through every other Feminine aspect of the Universe throughout the Planes. Babalon as the Goddess is thus also ever present throughout All Planes. There is only One who is None – the Qabalistic Zero. Yet All are aspects of Her. She formulates and moves All, and Loves All as Herself. We are to do the same, as this is the True Nature of Things. Love is the Law of the Universe. Nuit is Love, Pure and Perfect, abiding beyond the First Aire. Nuit formulates the Will expressed in the First Aire, and Babalon, who is Love, is under Will in the Second Aire. The Law of Thelema is so explained. Love All as God, for All is of God. There is No-Thing but God. You need only turn your Eye to God, to behold God’s Loving embrace. Unto Thee!!! Amen.
The 1st Aire (LIL). This Aire surrounds the Spheres numbered 1, 2
and 3 on the Tree of Life in Kether. We
encounter the Positive manifestations of Godhead in the Sephiroth, which are
Male in Nature. The Holy One expresses
itself as the two, Chokmah and Binah.
There is Being in the Holy One.
Not-Being Exists in the Aire Itself and what lies beyond, which is
Negative or Female in Nature. As we rise
from Briah to Atziluth on the Tree of Life in Kether, called Ygdrasil, we
encounter the Being of Hadit and the Not-Being of Nuit. The manifestation of One reveals the
Other. Nuit and Hadit are in constant
Holy Union. No One Truly exists but
Them. As we rise to the Apex of the
Blade, we encounter the Lord of the New Aeon, Ra-Hoor-Khuit sitting upon the
Throne in Kether of Ygdrasil. He is the
Crowned and Conquering Childe of Nuit and Hadit, a manifestation of Them. They formulate and move even Him. He is the Lord of Initiation in this New
Aeon, so pray to Him to empower, bless and protect your Holy Work in all
ways. And now we perceive more. The Eye is opened unto Nuit’s Chalice beyond
the Blade. The Love flowing from her
Chalice formulates and moves even Hadit.
Her Love is the Sole Ruling Power of this Universe. She is the Yechidah, the Soul of All, and
Feminine in Nature. In
And so an
Account of the Aires is rendered to further assist the Children in
Understanding Their True Holy Nature.
Love and Blessings unto Thee!!!
Love is the Law, Love under Will.
