MAGICK WITHOUT .TEARS
Letter E
August 18, 1943
Cara Soror,
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
Much thought has gone into the construction of your
Motto. "I will become" can be turned neatly enough as "Let
there be" ; by avoiding the First Pronoun one gets the idea of
"the absorption of the Self in the Beloved," which is exactly
what you want.
"The creative Force of the Universe" is quite ready-made.
Pyramis,' a pyramid , is that force in its geometrical form ; in
its biological form it is Phallus ,' the Yang or Lingam. Both
words have the same numerical value, 831. These two words
can therefore serve you as the secret object of your Work.
How then can you construct the number 83l?
The letter Kaph,2 Jupiter (Jehovah) the Wheel of Fortune
in the Tarot - the Atu X is a picture of the Universe built up
and revolving by virtue of those Three Principles , Sulphur ,
Mercury , Salt, or Gunas , Sattvas , Rajas, Tamas - has the value
20. So also has the letter Yod2 spelt in full.
One Gnostic secret way of spelling and pronouncing
Jehovah is lAO' and this has the value 811. So has "Let
there be," Fiat, transliterating into Greek .
Resuming all these ideas, it seems that you can express
your aspiration very neatly, very fully , by choosing for your
motto the words FIAT YOD.
Love is the Law, love under will.
Fraternally ,
666
P.S. Please study this letter , and these explanatory figures.
