with their hand while giving their blessing. It is the start of the secrets of<br />

blessing, the great Merkabah.<br />

In an ancient method of sacrificial killing, the priests placed the<br />

sacrificial king in a Birchwood box and suspended it between two tall<br />

poles (Asherah poles). 418 Allowed three loaves, one for each aspect of the<br />

deity or the Triple Goddess, he remained suspended at God’s mercy,<br />

between heaven and earth, until he decayed and his remains blew away.<br />

An esteemed Jewish scholar and Masonic Librarian once<br />

congratulated me on my work. Old and frail, he has now passed-on. But<br />

he generously gave me four great gifts that have since grown in value.<br />

Second only to his friendship, was his gift of the major Arcanum of the<br />

Merkabah. Showing me a piece of paper, which he had already cut into<br />

the form of a cross, he silently formed a hollow, perfect cube. This is the<br />

cubic throne, which is the vehicle in which one ascends toward the Light.<br />

It is the cube or unfolded sacrificial cross of the sacred marriage. A<br />

Druze candidate wears a blood sprinkled cube at his initiation ceremony,<br />

symbolizing that the cube unfolded is the bloody instrument of perfection.<br />

Similarly, a Masonic Knights Templar receives a cube. 419 <strong>The</strong> rose on the<br />

cross of the Rose Croix is the emblem of the sacrificial king. In alchemy,<br />

the new king emerges from the stone. <strong>The</strong> symbol is one of sacrifice and<br />

equally applies to both the divine triad and the Triple Goddess. Often<br />

priests symbolized the divine triad or the Triple Goddess by a cube<br />

sculpted into a triple-head. For example, a triple headed ram represents<br />

the perfection of the Egyptian God Amun.<br />

After the death of the old king, the officials led the new king to<br />

his coronation with a silk ribbon around his neck to remind the candidate<br />

of his brief reign with divine power. This is similar to the Scottish Rite’s<br />

33º degree ceremony. 420 In ancient times, the silk ribbon was a silken<br />

strangling cord, which symbolized the sacred obligation to kill the king<br />

after a nominated period, or when his vitality waned, so that the divine<br />

power may find a more youthful and vigorous incarnation. 421 <strong>The</strong><br />

traditional period of the king’s rule was forty years. If he exceeded this<br />

time by a single day, his subjects and attendants killed him, saying His<br />

reasoning is already dimmed, and his insight confused.<br />

Pythagorean numbers six and seven represent Light and Life,<br />

respectively. <strong>The</strong> six by seven matrix has forty-two boxes. <strong>The</strong>se<br />

correspond to Yahweh's forty-two names, one for each combination of<br />

Light and Life. 422 Perhaps this is how Douglas Adams, author of <strong>The</strong><br />
