word meaning cherished, beloved. see 5 1,937.<br />

I. The total length of the 13 boundary lines of the<br />

;Ift'l one shepherd. Ezekiel 34:23: "And I<br />

David." see 270, 744.<br />

IT winter; harvest-time, autumn, freshly<br />

that day, that living waters shall go out form<br />

Jerusalem, half of them toward the former sea,<br />

and half of them toward the hinder sea: in<br />

summer and in winter shall it be." see 1008.<br />

'1M'l Goetia demon #16 by day of the lst<br />

decanate of Virgo. This decanate corresponds to<br />

the 8 of Pentacles. This represents the operation<br />

of Hod, sphere of Mercury, in Assiah, the<br />

material world of action. see Appendix 1 1.<br />

I. Goetia: "'He is a great duke, and appears in red<br />

apparel and armor, like a solder. His office is to<br />

cause women to love men, and to bring them<br />

%B to break through, to liberate, to open; break<br />

open; to set free; release; dismiss; to escape; to<br />

cause exemption; to divorce. Both words<br />

(payrate and pawtar), designates the quality of<br />

activity represented by the pentagram, as well as<br />

the actual purpose of the pentagram ritual, which<br />

seeks to bring about a particular manifestation of<br />

the Life-power's energy, and comprehends that<br />

energy as working in a five-fold manner. With<br />

different pointing pehter: opening, firstling, first<br />

I. An 'aperture', 'hole', or 'void'. The ideas<br />

suggested by the numbers of the verse may<br />

therefore be resumed by the symbol of the womb<br />

and its ophidian emanations. This is confirmed<br />

by the curious word, or name, Coph Nia. Coph<br />

or Koph means the 'daughter'. It is a name of<br />

Proserpine or Persephone, the goddess of<br />

destruction. She is called Koph because, as<br />

Payne Knight expresses it, she represents the<br />

'Universal daughter, or general secondary<br />

principle; for though properly the goddess of<br />

Destruction, she is frequently distinguished by<br />

the title Soteira, Preserver, represented with ears<br />

of corn upon her head, as the goddess of<br />

Fertility. She was, in reality, the personification<br />

of the heat or fire supposed to pervade the earth,<br />

which was held to be at once the cause and effect<br />

of fertility and destruction, as being at once the<br />

cause and effect of fermentation; from which<br />

both proceed'. [Grant, 1994, pp. 35-36.]<br />

K.D.L.C.K. (p.647) gives: particulare, and says<br />

this name evidently pertains to Malkuth;<br />

however others attributed it to Kether, said<br />

generally and universally: Tiphareth specially<br />

and particularly, and to Malkuth in general.<br />

Moreover, the sense is that in the crown in<br />
