…sed be He !—even the Holy Sephiroth. And the Method whereby I shall work shall be the One Absolute and inerratic Science: the Science of Number: which is that single Mystery of the Intellect of Man whereby he becometh exalted unto the Throne of Inflexible and Unerring Godhead. As it is written, “Oh, how the World hath Inflexible Intellectual Rulers” (Zoroaster). But before I may proceed unto the Qabalistical * enumera- tion and analysis of the Text, a certain preamble in the fruitful fields of that Science will become necessary. The Evolution o…

But I +2+43 = 6, which is the number of }, the third letter of the Venerable Name: Microprosopus and the Son of God. We are now, therefore, arrived at the Great Mystery of the Tetractys, and to go further we must resort to the Twin Sister of the Science of Number—which, indeed, is but Number made Flesh: Geometry, or Absolute Symbolism. Even as it was spoken by the holy Pythagoras: ‘‘ God geometrises.” Let us behold the Work of His Fingers!…

In the first is shown the Mystic Trinity before manifestation ; as it were unlimited, unbound, and unbounded, inoperative because of its diffusiveness and dispersion. In the second figure we behold their concentra- tion: focalisation: producing by their joint action the number of manifestation—4. In the worlds—Assiah: in the Taro, the Princess—the throne of …

A NOTE ON GENESIS the Great God, and the Material Universe sinketh into Infinity. The first Number, then, is ONE; emblem of the All-Father; the Unmanifest Mind behind all Manifestation: the First Mind. Multiply by It any other Number—for the Multiplica- tion of the Numbers is a Generation, as is the Multiplication of Men and Gods—and behold! the Resultant is a replica of the Number taken. So is One the All-Father, the All- begetter—generating and producing all. The next step is the division into TWO. Thus was manifested the Great Dual Power of …

…Waters, co» (Maim), even as it is afterwards set forth in Verse 2. In the next word, nx, we find that the Conjunctive 1 makes of the Key number of the Essence of the Earth 11 instead of 5: symbolising how the World should fall unto the Kingdom of the Shells, and how it should be redeemed by the Son of Man. Ancient Hebrew Method of obtaining all numbers above 400 and below 1000, respectively8 and n, was to make up the number with the proper letters. Thus 500 would have been written pn, not 4, and 800 nn, and soon. [Yet in some few Arcana the Fin…

PART II It was necessary that I should go thus somewhat at length into this Mystery of the Opening of the Numbers, because without this explanation much of the meaning of the verse must necessarily remain obscure. Now let us consider this most Mystic Verse! The first thing that strikes us is that it contains Seven Words: the Second that the number of its letters is cwenty- eight. Thus does it perfectly symbolise in its entirety the third Symbol in the numerical evolution. Before proceeding to a detailed analysis, and following the Process of Cr…

…pe in the Earth as there is Hope in Heaven. And the last letter of the verse is ¥ (the letter of Hope), by Qabalah of Nine Chambers that number which con- tains in itself all the properties of Protean Matters: howsoever you may multiply it the Key of its Numbers is ever 9. Fitting Symbol of ever-changing matter which ever in its essence is One—one and alone! Thus with the first appearance of the number of Matter does the first verse of B’rasheth close: formulating in itself the Beginning and the End of the Great Creation. “The Characters of Hea…

THE EQUINOX number which was begun by the author of this essay, carried on by myself, and now about to be published as soon as the MS. can be prepared. The reader who is at all familiar with the sublime compu- tations of the Qabalah will find no difficulty in appreciating this Essay to the full; but all will gain benefit from the study of the ratiocinative methods employed. These methods, indeed, are so fine and subtile that they readily sublime into the Intuitive. This study is truly a Royal Magistry, an easy and sure means of exalting the con…

…Bird of Life, whose will was heard in the Night of Time. The total numeric value of the verse is u1n3= 4459, of which the Key is 22, the number of the Paths from 8 ton; and the Key of 22 is 4, the Tetractys and the Threshold of the Universe. Now to proceed to what I have termed the Time Process, the first Word of the Law then is mwxo3a. Now in the Hebrew Scriptures the first word of a Book is also its Title. Thus Genesis is called by the Rabbins “ B’rasheth,” or “ In the Beginning,” wherefore we may regard this Word as not the first word—albeit…
