118 THE EQUINOX May 19th. 1. Assumption of the god-form of Harpocrates: It lasted nine minutes: the result was good, for I got a distinct aura around me. 2. Physical Astral Projection. I formed a sphere which took a human shape but rather corpse-like. I then projected a gray* ray from the left side of my head; this was very tiring and there was no result physically. 3. Concentrated on imaginary self for ten minutes, and then projected self into it with fearful force. Chiah nearly passed.† 4. Red sphere darkened and glorified and return to lightem Tiphereth. The result was good. 20th. 1. Tejas-Apas Meditation. 2. Meditation on living object with the usual two figure result. 3. Astral Vision.‡ I found myself in a boiling sea with geysers spouting around me. Suddenly monsters shaped like lions and bulls and dragons rose from the deep, and about them sped many fiery angels, and Titanic god-forms plunged and wheeled and rose amongst the waters. Above all was built a white temple of marble through which a rose-flame flickered. there stood Aphrodite with a torch in one hand and a cup in the other,§ and above her hovered Archangels. Then suddenly all was an immense void, and as I looked into it I beheld the dawn of creation. Gusts of liquid fire flamed and whirled through the darkness. Then nothing but the brilliance of fire and water. I was away fifteen minutes. 4. Seven minutes breathing exercise fifteen seconds each way. (Breathing in, withholding, and breathing out.) 5. White Lion on Gray. 5 m. Result bad. 21st. Position 1. 45 m. Fair. Worked out a “double” formula for Physical Astral Projection. First project with Enterer Sign; simulacrum answers with Harpocrates sign.ƒƒ Then as soon as Enterer sign weakens change consciousness as for Astral Visions. After which attack body from Simulacrum * The colour of Chokmah. † See Plate VI. “The Kabbalah Unveiled,” S. L. Mathers. ‡ It is to be noted that this Vision is of a fiery nature, and that it was experienced shortly after meditating upon Tejas-Apas. § Very similar to the older form of “Temperance” in the Taro. ƒƒ See Liber O, THE EQUINOX, vol. i, No. 2; Plate, “Signs of the Grades,” i; and vol. i, No. 1; Plates the “Silent Watcher” and “Blind Force.”
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.
