Knowledge pours through the northern doors

sorenbarrett

From the profane keep the truth out of sight,

Be like the owl that sees only by night

North in darkness’ domain, at the corner of fright

On the hyperborean terrain, in Thule shines the sun at midnight

As the sun follows from west to east the clock strikes twelve on the equinox

Christ is born under the sign of the beast and the mallet falls on Hiram's locks

As Ra turns to Auf. Mitra’s realm becomes Varuna’s

Soma and Sin in the kingdom of Toth and the Zurvanic heresy’s fulfilled where all’s Luna’s

 

As the earth is in black mourning,

Jerusalem’s dark maid is red and gold adorning

Where Pluto is king,

the third line of the triangle, the son of putrefaction does bring

Closest to the creator is AUIR KADMON, a void of blackness

Without it, to the light of the all knowing one, man could have no access

In the depths of this darkness, from the very shadow of man is born a ray

That illuminates a book of splendors where the 28th path shows the way

 

To unlock a structure of masonry

Where the pope holds the key

Which when turned 280 reveals the Sol Niger, knight of the sun

It contains chaos disentangled, primal matter, Stibium

It is the fifth infinitude, sulfur, fire, and mars,

The master in the east, wardens under the west and south stars

Seventy two left powers to severity and fear

One must wonder, who sits in the northern bier?

 

Here, the beginning of the night can be seen in the checkered floor's black and white

In the reflection of the sun's light what is wrong becomes right

The basin of purification

Desolation, and Creation

Hermanubis, baphomet, pelican, phoenix, dove and raven

The names of Azoth, and Elohim Gibor graven

IH-UH, HU-HI

IAQ, first, last, unity

 

The tree of knowledge, good and evil

Malakh, Gepasaith, a great black eagle

The Blazing star, Od, the astral light

Gold and silver, a winged dragon in flight

The number of the Manes that slumber is two

It is under a balance that this is true

The commandment is, honor your father and your mother

Look in a mirror, in Etidorhpa I'm your sister and your brother

 

It is in Gevurah where God is divided

The meridian of ignorance, instinct abided

The ageless one's left shoulder, God's left hand

It is by the name of Samael that I stand

The goat's head, life to the dead

Corn scattered, salt and bread

Judgment out of ignorance, justice out of animal energy

Cybele, Ceres, Rhea, Cabiri,

Cheridwen, Isis, Selene, Naiobe

I am all that has been, that is, or shall be

no mortal hath ever unveiled me

 

METATRON SANDELPHON

Boaz two Jachin one

The black stone, Elagabalus

Under the figure of Hermes’ Caduceus

Gabriel, fire, an ox head

The winged and bearded man-woman crowned with flames on a cube for a bed

God's mother, sister and wife

The inconsumable oil, author, and balsam of life

I am the birth, grave and resurrection,

truth crucified between two thieves of contradiction

 

Between the pillars I saw,

the rays of the sun become the lion's paw

Geometry, God, Generation,

the three G’s form the triangle of veneration

death and life, female and male,

peace and strife, a serpent devouring its tail

Dark and light, moon and sun,

wrong and right, two yet one

 

Unity in multiplicity, order in confusion

Simplicity out of complexity, stability out of transition

Inferior reflected, terminus light descending,

Superior directed, terminus light ascending

Even the waves obey my beckoning

Those that don't recognize me face their day of reckoning

At the return of the dog look to Mars

Where Isis and Osiris join in the stars

 

I am the link between the Gods and man

Both male and female Io Pan

The whole of the law is do what thou wilt

Yet in this you will find no guilt

I am that I am is God's name

Take notice, yours is the same

    Wow this was a journey. I love all these mythological and biblical allusion. It was so intense and intriguing and the final lines were a statement. "I am that I am" 💖
