THE TEMPLE OF SOLOMON THE KING
with sign of Enterer to draw force. This cycle repeat until
Simulacrum is at least capable of audible speech.
I tried this and started by invoking the forces of Chokmah and
Thoth, but omitted stating purpose of Operation in so many words.
Yet with three projections (each way) I obtained a shadowy grayness
somewhat human in shape. But found difficulty where least
expected—in transferring consciousness to Simulacrum.
May 22nd. God-form Thoth. 16 m. Result fair.
Akâsa-Akâsa. During the meditation the following Vision was
seen. All things around me were surrounded by silver flashes or
streaks. But about the human corpse which I saw before me there
were fewer, and they moved more slowly. Above me was was a pyramid
of flashing light, and around me purple hangings. Five silver candlesticks
were brought in, and then I saw a throne with pentagram in
white brilliance above it. There was a rose of five by five petals
within; and above Qesheth the rainbow. Rising from the ground were
formless demons—all faces! Even as X. A. R. P. * etc., are evil.
Above were the Gods of E. H. N. B.; and above them svastika wheels
whirling, and again above this the Light ineffable.
24th. Green ankh. 7 m. Poor.
Worked at 5°=6° explanation.
Cross in brilliance. 10 m. Medium result.
Thoth in front of me. 5 m. Poor.
June 3rd. Astral Vision. Dressed in white and red Abramelin robes with crown,
wand, ankh, and rose-cross, etc., etc., went on an Astral Journey to
* The four letters of the Air line
in the “Little Tablet of Union” which
unites the four great Watch Towers of
the Elements (see Dr. Dee’s system, also
Golden Dawn MS. entitled “The
Concourse of the Forces).” Thus the T
of Nanta represents Earth of Earth
—the Empress of Pantacles in the Taro,
and that letter is used as an
initial for names of angels drawn from
the Earthy corner of the Earth tablet.
