~h$m "ll vita rnundi ventural. the Lifebreath<br />

of the world. [K.D.L.C.K. p.3421. "For<br />

Chokmah is also called 'the Life-breath of the<br />

world" because it is the life of the Sphere of<br />

Binah, which is called the soul (or breath) of the<br />

world<br />

13 + a%! + 7% [Ben + Adam + Melek). The<br />

Son + Adam + The King. These are three title of<br />

Tiphareth, Sphere of the Sun and 6th Sephirah.<br />

see 52,45,90,67, 1081.<br />

The sum of 187 reduces to 7, and the extension<br />

of 7 is the perfect number, 28, and this takes you<br />

back through 10 [Malkuth] to 1 [Kether]. Man<br />

(OW, 45) is the Son (f 3, 52), and because he is<br />

the Son, he is the King (7%, 90). He stands at<br />

the Center (an, 440) at the point of absolute<br />

rest. Man's is the core of all, and the core is the<br />

heart. A cube has a face of 4 sides, and the<br />

angles formed by its diagonals are angles of 45<br />

degrees the number of Adam. The angles at its<br />

corners are 90 degrees, Melek. The interior<br />

corner-to-corner diagonals are the square root of<br />

3 (1.732). Therefore these 4 lines inside the cube<br />

are analogous to such lines on the Tree of Life as<br />

Daleth. The square root of 3 x 4 is 6.928 or 7 in<br />

whole numbers. And this hides Ben, because<br />

Ben is 52, which reduces to 7. See 13.<br />

of Fire. Goetic demon #9 by day the 31d decanate<br />

of Gemini. Corresponds to the 10 of Swords<br />

Goetia: "...a great king, and very obedient unto<br />

Lucifer. He appears in the from of a man sitting<br />

upon a dromedary with a crown most glorious<br />

upon his head. There goes before him also a host<br />

of Spirits, like men with trumpets and well<br />

sounding cymbals, and all other sorts of musical<br />

instruments. He has a great voice, and roars at<br />

his first coming, and his speech is such that the<br />

magician cannot well understand unless he can<br />

compel him. The spirit can tech all arts and<br />

sciences, and other secret things. He can discover<br />

unto thee what the Earth is, and what holds it up<br />

in the waters; and what Mind is, and where it is;<br />

or any other things you may desire to know. He<br />

gives dignity, and confirms the same. He binds<br />

or makes any man subject unto the magician if<br />

25 1<br />

he so desire it. He gives good familiars, and such<br />

as can teach all arts. He is to be observed<br />

towards the west. He is of the Order of<br />

Dominations. He has under him 200 Legions of<br />

Sprits, and part of them are of the Order of<br />

Angles, and the other part of potentates. How if<br />

you call this spirit Paimon alone, you mist make<br />

him some offering; and there will attend him two<br />

Kings called Labal and Abalim, and also other<br />

Sprits who of the Order of Potentates in his Host,<br />

and 25 legions. And those spirits which be<br />

subject unto them are not always with them<br />

unless the Magician do compel them." [Mathers,<br />

%'B'IO Sophiel. "Thing of God." In The Key of<br />

Solomon the King, (figure 52), Sophiel is said to<br />

be the angel of the 4th pentacle of the moon:<br />

"This defendenth thee from all evil sorceries, and<br />

from all injury unto soul of body. Its angel,<br />

Sophiel, giveth the knowledge of the virtue of all<br />

herbs and stones; and unto whomsoever shall<br />

name him, he will procure the knowledge of all."<br />

"Sophiel-angle of the 4th pentacle of the moon. In<br />

Jewish Cabala, Sophiel is the intelligence of<br />

Jupiter. (the corresponding angel here being<br />

Zadykiel)." [Davidson, 197 1, p. 277.1<br />

n(f)D corner-stone. [Abbreviated form] In<br />

Job 38:6: "On what were its footings [trf*,<br />

footings-of-her] set, or who laid its cornerstone?''<br />

Pinnah, means corner, pinnacle, turret. Thus the<br />

corner stone is really the pinnacle stone. Note-<br />

here the letters ?ID, both of which have to do<br />

with the liberating Mars force. see 53, 588, 11 85<br />

"The top stone of a pyramidal structure. Mackey<br />

writes: "The corner-stone does not appear to<br />

have been adopted by any on the heathen<br />

nations, but to have been the ehben pinah<br />
