would help for accounting type problems! Malkuth is the first place # go to work on when my home,
business, ect needs work!
e directions manifest on the arth, that is why Malkuth is represented by the cross denoting the $
elements of physical manifestation! %et&ach is Victory over the emotions, and 'enus is a very
romantic(emotion based energy that does involve attraction, but not necessarily with money! "f course,
there are many ways to look at correspondences, and many )ephiroth are applicable, but in most cases
Malkuth is the first energy to call in for creating wealth and abundance!

ly speaking, only ten tribes are of #srael, *oseph second only to pharoah passed his birthright to his sons
by his! gyptian wife! They were named phraim and Manesseh! This is significant, because it violates
gods commandment to abraham, father of issac, father of isaac, father of *acob, father of *oseph, who
gave away his birthright, so there would be +, tribes, not ++!
#n this story and relation, God of #srael says the commandments of the God of Moses will be lifted!!!
when his +- tribe, of Goetia, Goyehuth is clbrought forth! .e see in this story that religion of /ada
0*uda, literally self-knowledge!! with /id beibg the name od an adherent, a combination of the word
root of daath and the personal pronoun indication of possession or reception1 is not restricted to
maternal religion! This only marry women of your own kind was a commandment from abraham to
issac, to 2acob and esau!! esau, called dom broke it, which made 3ebekah mother to 2acob and esau
betray her eldest sons claim to #saacs bkrthright!
*oseph in his telling his father to pass his birthright to his sons of an egyptian mother is absolving the
people of institutional racism!! something that they fail to grasp, so God visits them with plague,
forcing them to egypt, where *oseph had secured a place for his people,!! but they remained segregated
and this refusal to integrate led to their imprisonment and eventual slavery!
This is why 4anaanites are then allowed into the tribes after the exodus!
welve Tribes of #srael originate from the sons and grandsons of 5atriarch *acob! The 6ible mentions the

The names of the tribes differ in the 6ible, but nochian magicians accept the +, tribes of #srael which
*ohn Aee mentioned in his writings8 ?sher, Aan, phraim, Gad, #ssachar, Manasseh, %aphtali, 3euben,

# gathered that was your source!
Kamea are generally written or inscribed upon seals, banners, scrolls, or talismans in old days! They
need not be written by your hand! The power is in the hand that bears such a banner, not the one who
writes it! 3eally, with a Kamea, any way it is employed is supposed to be given its power! "ne such use
might be to transcribe it to a '3/ long chant to employ daily! That book only mentions carrying it
with you, and making a banner out of it, or a cymbal! Fook to 4hinese magic for the oldest use of
Magic )@uares and you see they are sort of like templates of understanding and organi&ation!
I4arry it with you everywhereI generally means Iinternali&e and apply it perpetually!I
The oldest reference to Magic )@uares is presenting them like an ancient art of categori&ation not
originating with the text! This book, called the Ta Tai Fi 4hi hints cities, or even entire nations can be
ordered around them, and that they are very useful in ensuring a strategic way to organi&e troops over
'3/ large regions or even to deliver military intelligence by sky signal - something also employed by
tribes of native americans on both continents! #f you think about it, it would give each a se@uence and
each would be part of a total s@uare of rank and files! ?s the planets motions were unanimously seen by
ancients as propitious to military motions of celestial forces in a constant struggle - it makes sense they
would have certain planetary @ualities!
This is in stark contrast to more western 3oman infantry tactics of Fegions, formed by columns in
dominion and proximity of watchtowers! IJorm a column of watchtowersGI was still employed by the
cadence caller as the principle call to prepare for marches or rifle drill!!! when # was in bootcamp in
+<<-! /ou form port and starboard under the left and right column leaders, and then you generally walk
in pairs, or single file!!! I5ort .atch, forward march, )tarboard .atch stand fastI - the first column on
the left starets marching behind the banner, and the starboard watch 0right column1 fills in beind then!
ach watch is divided further, and your division can assemble all companies to form a full class! My
bootcamp company was #-+;> assigned 3ecruits to Therodore 3oosevelt 04%-=+1! That and my unit
designation gave me my rank and file for everything my unit did! This is on topic, because it is sort of
what the names are for the grid s@uares in a kamea - designations for units of a whole!
?s an experienced nochian Magician at this time, it was @uite clear to me much of the math comes
from basic Geometries further given meaning in AeeEs works and his records! # could write a book on
how 6ootcamp is a great intiation! #n many ways, my recruit designation was my first magic name
given to me!

Hobal - man, god of rain
.add - god of the firmament
)uiuah - woman
/aghuth - lion
/aook - horse
%asr - eagle
l K&&ah -
?llat - the last great resistance against #slam, feminine of ?llah
Manat - )tone
Auwar - The virgin
#saf and %aila - the gods of tag, worshipped by running between two hills and touching the idols!
ahhah - the stone that is the eater of camels offered
"ne traditional method of employing magic s@uares and similar amulets was hanging silk banners from
trees, especially sacred to cults of tree worship sacred to deities in aspect of 'enus observation! ?
sacred stone was often under the tree which was circumambulated seven times! # 2ust had a thought it
would be very cool to do this with an acacia bonsai!
made the name up, but really Cabbalah can help you balance and figure out anything! "ne of the
foundational beliefs in many schools of Cabbalah is that we are IGods in TrainingI for lack of a better
name 0learning how to create like loheem1! Gods are abundant, and know how to serve themselves
and others! ?lso, there is a common belief that God provides abundance for you naturally, and the only
reason people do not have this, is they have strayed from their essence or their path! )o really, all
Cabbalah is about getting you to a place of 2oy and abundance in every part of your life - financial
included! "f course, that doesnEt mean you are filthy rich - some people only need a little to live
abundantly!

ery interesting possible ?ssyrian origins of The Tree of Fife diagram: with attributed @ualities linked to
)ephirot through Mesopotamian gods and their divine numbers! #n reality Cabalah as we know it today
has been influenced by everything from gyptian to %eoplatonic thought, but ?ssyriologist )imo
5arpola definitely makes a good point of the )ephirot and their attributes fitting perfectly into a
Mesopotamian system!
.ith )in0%anna1 in 6inah, )amas0Ktu1 in Geburah, #star0#nanna1 in Tiphereth, %inurta in %et&ach, and
%ergal in /esod it gave me a few issues with this ?ssyrian arrangement: but hereEs a couple of things to
keep in mind8
+! The 4haldean order of planets we are use to is great for magickal hours(days, but who says the
)ephirot themselves are planetaryL #n the )efer /et&irah the = double letters take on the roll of
planetary forces 0vertical paths1, not necessarily the )ephirot!
,! This ?ssryian Tree is based on a sexagesimal system, which is different from the standard decimal
we us in Cabalah!
ThoughtsL
topic! There does seem to be a lot of evidence pointing to an esoteric lineage through )yriac to the
4haldeans and from there to )umer! The Torah does say I/our father was an ?morite and your mother
a Hittite!I
3egarding the sexagesimal system of the 6abylonians, the sidereal astronomy differs with the modern
calculation 0Jagan-6radley1 by less than +M
all breaks down rather nicely BUT by using this system Utu/hamash!the sun" is #$aced in geburah%
&star/&nnana!'enus" is #$aced in ti#heroth% (anna/in!the moon" is #$aced in binah%
(inurta!saturn" is #$aced in (et)ach% and (erga$!mars" is #$aced in yesod* ooo my #oint +as if
+e $ook at each of these gods !$itt$e g" as being something akin to the ,$ohim being as#ects of the
-ne .od !big ." then maybe the tit$es of the se#iroth are as#ects/#arts of the -ne .od e/#ressed
as the god/indi'idua$ #art they #ersonify and not so much a #$anetary force*
)o )amas being the personification of *udgement is therefore placed in geburah, even though this god
is considered solar and not martial! )o geburah in this case is about 2udgement and not mars related
things, but if a planetary force was attributed to the sphere of geburah it would be solar in this system
and not martial!
he Godname associated with AaEath is /H'H lohim! This comes from a combination of the
Godnames for 4hokmah and 6inah! "ther attributes follow suit!
AaEath is the I)ephirah that is not a )ephirahI, one of those paradoxical concepts that hints at the Greek
translation of its own meaning8 Gnosis! The )upernal Triad cannot be grasped or accessed by the
normal faculties, and it is Gnosis that is the bridge from Iour worldI to the )upernal world! AaEath is
therefore not really the ?byss, but the bridge that crosses the ?byss! .hen one lacks Gnosis, one lacks
the bridge necessary to cross the ?byss into the )upernal 3ealm!
?s King )olomon points out, it also hints at the Garden of den tale in Genesis! 6y eating of the fruit
of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and vil, ?dam and ve were cast out of the Garden, which
represented immortality! The )upernal Triad is that Garden, and the Tree of Fife as a whole is, of
course, the immortality that we once had 0as part of God1! The passage from 6inah to 4hesed is the
figurative Jall, and this is accomplished through AaEath, Knowledge, which is both the reason for our
Jall and our method to ascend back up again 0via Gnosis1!
AaNath is not a true sephira, but a placeholder! The supernals of Keter, 6inah, and 4hockmah are the
ideal, while the other sephiroth represent the actual! AaNath rests within the metaphysical abyss that
separates them! ?bove the abyss lie the supernals O the heavens 0notice only the triangle of the
supernals points up towards God1! verything in the supernals is united as one O expressed as a
polarity! 6elow the abyss lies the physical world O where the unity of polarity is separated by illusion
into duality! Auality is simply polarity experienced as separate rather than whole!
*ehovah is sometimes used as a replacement for /H'H, but different schools argue about the validity
of that pronunciation! AahEatEs Godname is a combo of 6inah and 4hockmahs names 8 /H'H 0or
*ehovah1 loheem, but #Eve never seen it as *ehovah by itself!!!!
?s far as Malkuth originating at AahEat, # read that interpretation before, but after a lot of consideration,
#Em pretty sure that itEs wrong 0at least in most schools of Kabbalah1! # donEt want to get into it too
much, because it is a complicated teaching that is better laid out in person, but AahEat did not always
exist, and was created as part of a specific ritual, so that humans wouldnEt have to spend eternity in
duality, but could one day return to the Garden and eat from the Tree of Fife again 0however you want
to interpret that1! #f you read the oldest Kabbalistic texts 0like Bohar()efer /it&irah1, they have a clearly
laid out origin for the )ephiroth, that does not follow the pattern of Malkuth starting at AahEat! ThatEs
all # really want to say about it now, but go read )efer /it&irah(Bohar and meditate on this a bit, and it
will open up to you more!

IJor the image of Tiphareth is nothing less than the entire construction of the 4onstellation, all the
Holy %ames and 4ognomens in which /H'H, may he be blessed, dresses and adorns himself!
This sphere is known in the Torah as PAaleth-?yin-TauQ, an the essence of this is in the verse8
/H'H with his 4hokmah laid the foundations for the arth, He prepared the heavens with Te6hunah
0pronounced Tevoonah, root is same as 6inah1 and with his AaEaT the interiors of the earth were split
open! 05roverbs -8+<1
This is crucial to the understanding of Cabala, InochianI, Taosit .i&ardry, and # would gather many
other paths, interconnected or otherwise!
something # would love to discuss with you 3aum! # think there is a huge misconception in application
as to where the abyss lies in our contemporary waking awareness!
Generally speaking, as with the allegory of AEaath splitting open the interiors of the earth, # would
correspond AEaath with 5iagetEs Jormal "perational ?wareness in a psychograph! AEaath is the aspect
of our being which allows us to conduct formal operations on our thoughts 0thinking about thinking1,
and also to engage in the mental symbol manipulation which makes magick possible! 0flux capacitorL1
The 'edantic "vermind, as an aspect of mentality that can be illuminated 0and therefor easily mistaken
for transcendence1 is also perfectly correspondent in both my study of the materials and their
application in practice with AEaath!
am unfamiliar with 5iaget in general! To the second statement, without excluding people, # have to
speak to concepts we might all be familiar with! Have you seen the matrixL Know that interface port
they had on the back of their head, the void, that let them recieve the cable 2ack to enter the matrixL
That interface port is perhaps a good metaphor for AaEath in some ways! My personal work has led me
to believe and conclude there is a strong connection between the ?ngelum 6onorum and AaEath!
The 'edantic "vermind, as an aspect of mentality that can be illuminated 0and therefor
easily mistaken for transcendence1 is also perfectly correspondent in both my study of the
materials and their application in practice with AEaath!
/es, the person halfway up the mountain often looks at the ground and wonders at their
accomplishment, and lords overt those that climb behind them - not reali&ing they are falling out of step
with the people before them! This is why it is very important to pay attention to those who come before
you, those who come with you, and those who will follow!
4are to make criticism about those statementsL or to make connections with other
rabbinical @abalistic loreL
T
My personal understanding of this is that in most cases, western Cabala starts at the bottom of the tree,
and moves IupwardI when it is @uite clear, this was infused from merkhaba mystcism, and that Cabala
originally actually brought currents A".% the tree! # think my @uestion to you would be if you think
working A".% the tree would support your assumption! ?lso if you could point me to some 5aiget
relative to this, #Ed love to read and make more comments! # 2ust never read him until you mentioned
him, and it seems too expansive for me to inform my self of this topic in a reasonable period of time!
is very interesting, in the sense of the $< ?ngelorum 6onorum Itouching the earthI, and your prior
reference to AaEath being the energy which cracks open the earth of #H'HEs creation: # would make the
connection that the operation implied in the 6onorum ?ngelorum #nvocationes is this precise process
of cracking open the kingdom! 4onsecration in a definite direction!
Have you read 4! Fionel .hitbyEs discussion about the ensigns of creationL # think his interpretation of
the ensigns allegorically representing the alchemical creation of the white stone is important, as # think
that is the purpose of the Heptarchic Magick 0inclusive of the )igillum Aei ?emeth1: that is to purify
and prepare the Magician for the further processes in the Magick: most specifically the initiations
conferred in Gebofal!
The next step of course is to bring up the principles of God ating, but this is a post-AaEath operation!
6ut this was the point of my original comment on the thread is that AaEath when seen as in the above
discussion is the end of the true and original dedication! .hich means AaEath 0which in pop culture
magick is associated with all manner of wisdom and power: oh the irony1 is actually the completion of
the %eophyte initiation!
The .ay Kp is The .ay AownI - Heraclitus
.orking Aown the Tree absolutely supports my position that the Mental and 4ognitive development
described in 5iagetEs research is closely cognate with AaEath! Jormal "perational ?wareness is in easily
contemporay occult @abalistic 2argon an observer and operator upon the 3uach, without being
completely transcendent! #ts a development of cognition that is cross culturally verifiable, and also
allows the brain to perform complex operations on its own images, symbols, concepts, and social
rule(roles!
The practice of learning Cabalistic correspondences is itself an exercise in formal operational
awareness, which develops into full blown network logic! This is the true power of AaEath in my
experience, is its ability to create a network of concepts, even if some are contradictory, to point to an
abstraction that has not yet been expressed! This is why it can interface between the #deal and ?ctual!

e know, books are not everything in african traditional religions and afro-diasporic religions!
these are oral traditions!
however, reading and doing research does help, especially for those who have made scrambled eggs out
of things!
the purpose 0imo1 in reading books on atrs is not to use the info to IevokeI &arabanda or anything like
that,
but to at least get a good grasp of what is what and who is who!
do know that the following is a poor list compared to the number of african religions and afro-diasporic
religions out there!
