The Star Sapphire
By Aleister Crowley
(class D)
Let the Adept be armed with his Magick Rood (and provided with
his Mystic Rose).
In
the centre, let him give the L.V.X. signs; or if
he know them, if
he will and dare do them, and can keep silent about them, the signs of
N.O.X. being the signs of Puer, Vir, Puella,
Mulier. Omit the sign
I.R.
Then let him advance to the
East and make the Holy Hexagram*,
saying: Pater et Mater unus deus Ararita(1).
Let him go round to the
South, make the Holy Hexagram* and say:
Mater et Filius unus deus Ararita(2).
Let him go round to the
West, make the Holy Hexagram* and say:
Filius et Filia unus deus Ararita(3).
Let him go round to the
North, make the Holy Hexagram* and then
say: Filia et Pater unus deus Ararita(4).
Let him then return to the
Centre, and so to The Centre of All (making
the Rosy Cross as he may know how) saying Ararita Ararita Ararita(5).
(In this the Signs
shall be those of Set Triumphant and of Baphomet.
Also shall Set appear in the Circle. Let him drink of the Sacrament and
let him communicate the same.) Then let him say: Omnia in Duos:
Duo in Unum: Unus in Nihil: Haec nec Quatuor nec Omnia nec Duo
nec Unus nec Nihil Sunt(6).
Gloria Patri et Matri et
Filio et Filiae et Spiritui Sancto externo et
Spiritui Sancto interno ut erat est erit in saecula Saeculorum sex in
uno per nomen Septem in uno Ararita(7).
Let him then repeat the
signs of L.V.X. but not the signs of N.O.X.:
for it is not he that shall arise in the Sign of Isis Rejoicing.
(1) Father and Mother one
god Ararita
(2) Mother and Son one god Ararita
(3) Son and Daughter one god Ararita
(4) Daughter and Father one god Ararita
(5) Ararita Ararita Ararita
(6) All in Two: Two in One: One in Nothingness: These are neither Four nor All nor Two nor
One nor Nothing.
(7) Glory be to the Father and to the Mother and to the Son and Daughter, and to the Holy
Spirit without and within, which was, is and shall be, world without end. Six in One
through the names of Seven in One, Ararita.
