And let him sing:
Then let the aspirant compose Himself into holy meditation. The postures of the adorationsSA (man) Kneel upon the left knee, sitting upon the left foot. The right knee is raised with the foot flat upon the ground. The right hand is forward with the hand open. The left arm is pulled back with the hand open at the level of the left breast.

Both arms are at right angles to the body with palms upward. A'ASH (summons) Stand exect with the right foot forward, the left foot behind as if taking a stride. The right hand is extended with palm open as if to receive a gift. The left hand is held in a tight fist. HENU (praise) Kneel upon the left knee, sitting upon the heel. The right knee is raised with the foot flat upon the ground. The left hand is raised at a right angle to the body with clenched fist. The right hand is over the heart, fist clenched. NETER (god) The feet are together with the knees separated at shoulder width. The elbows rest upon the knees, right hand resting on the left elbow, left hand over the right elbow. Explanation of the points of the Adorations(1) SA. The candidate assumes the posture of the uninitiated man, that is Asar or Osiris. With the initial and supreme adoration, he stands facing the Spiritual East, hailing the hidden son. Turning upon his axis deosil, he identifies himself with the sun so that he may invoke the Force whereby the secret door may be opened. In the East (♉ {Taurus}= ו {v}) he summons He who sits upon the Throne of Ra. Thus, he forms ו {v} + ט {t} + נ {n} + ה {h} = 70 = ע {j}= 𓂀 (2) North: DUA. The posture is that of the adorant and the Ape of Thoth. He then chants the first of the four adorations of OAI facing the Spiritual East. He adores the sun in the North, the place of greatest darkness and silence, as Asar the adorant, blind unto Himself. Yet his chant is the oath to attain by the aid of the Silver Star, and by his Perfection through his Holy Guardian Angel. Thus, in his chant, for the “Moon” the aspirant should understand The Priestess of the Silver Star. By “Myself” the aspirant should not consider Asar, but Asar-un-Nefer, and if he has wisdom, that which is beyond Him. At midnight, let the aspirant meditate upon Liber CCXX III.74. "There is a splendour in my name hidden and glorious, as the sun of midnight is ever the son." (3) West: HAI He looks toward Amenti, the place of death. He lifts his hands in the sign of Rejoicing, for his joy is that which is beyond Asar, foremost of the Westeners. As it is written, “These are dead, these fellows; they feel not. We are not for the poor and sad: the lords of the earth are our kinsfolk. Is a God to live in a dog? No! but the highest are of us. They shall rejoice, our chosen: who sorroweth is not of us.” (Liber CCXX 11:18-19). The posture called “Rejoicing” must not be confused with The Sign of Shu or the Sign of Isis in Welcome, although its similarity to the latter should be noted. Likewise, the aspirant should consider the hieroglyph for the Ka 𓂓. He should consider the threefold occurrence of “Initiation” in the chant as 𓊹𓊹𓊹 . At sunset let the aspirant meditate on Liber CCXX I:64. "I am the blue-lidded daughter of Sunset; I am the naked brilliance of the voluptuous night-sky." (4) South: A’ASH. He holds his hand out in the Sign of “Summons,” adoring the power of the Lion-Serpent-Sun, and calling unto Him of whom it is written, “For Thou art He.” (Liber LXV IV:25) At noon let the aspirant meditate on Liber CCXX I:8-9 and Liber CCXX II:2. "The Khabs is in the Khu, not the Khu in the Khabs. Come! all ye, and learn the secret that hath not yet been revealed. (5) East: HENU. He looks to the East assuming the ritual attitude of Praise before the Invisible One upon the Invisible Throne, whose eidolon is the Golden Hawk of the brilliant dawn. At dawn let the aspirant meditate on Liber CCXX I:49 and Liber LXV I:22. "Abrogate are all rituals, all ordeals, all words and signs. Ra-Hoor-Khuit hath taken his seat in the East at the Equinox of the Gods; and let Asar be with Isa, who also are one. But they are not of me. Let Asar be the adorant, Isa the sufferer; Hoor in his secret name and splendour is the Lord initiating." "Happy are they that praise thee; for they see thee with Mine eyes." (6) North: NETER. Completing the cycle in the North, the aspirant retires in the form of Asar-un-Nefer, man made Perfect in the sign of Neter. He is no longer mere mortal man, but God made flesh and dwelling among us. “I am alone: there is no God where I am.” (Liber CCXX II:23) “The other images group around me to support me: let all be worshipped, for they shall cluster to exalt me. I am the visible object of worship; the others are secret; for the Beast & his Bride are they: and for the winners of the Ordeal x. What is this? Thou shalt know.” (Liber CCXX, III:22) Love is the law, love under will. Given this 2nd Day of November, An IV. Notes: [1] See: Liber Aleph 154 Εψ: "it is the Path of the Lion that bindeth he two Highest Faculties of thy Mind. Again, it is Mau, the Sun at Brightness of high Noon, that is called the Lion, very lordly, in our Holy Invocation.” [2] The Spiricual East is opposite the position of the Sun at the zenith of its are, at Noon. For example, it is North in Europe and North America, South in southern Australia. [3] See: Changes are necessary in North/South when the ritual is performed south of the latitude of the Sun. East and West are unaffected. Proof read and edited by Frater D.M.T. © Thelemagick. [ » Primary Source: An overview of Liber Portae Secretae sub figura DX « ] |
