Latin Simplex

Well, then it's very likely the one that encodes your own personal mysteries - double lightning bolt!
Since Yah (YH) is 15, I always liked the numerical implications of the other - plus a phrase that superficially seems ironic yet, in my own life, speaks deeply to the essence of "Do what thou wilt."
BTW, you have Pearls of Wisdom? The LQS article in there is somewhat (but not grossly) updated from BP.

Wow! DCLXVI. Nice find.
-
TELEMA is 50, and TELHMA is 53, the same as ABRAHADABRA!
Edit- While I'm at it... AEON is 31 and AEONS is 48.
Edit 2 - Probably a bit of a stretch, but RASULULLAH and RASULALLAH (different ways of transliterating "Messenger of God" in Arabic) are 111 and 93 respectively.
-
I think Greek & Arabic should be enumerated in their own languages (or possibly Arabic & other Semetic lanagues) in Hebrew.
-
A MARI VSQVE AD MARE ("from sea to sea") = 151
DEVS OTIOSVS ("idle God") = 151
AD MAIOREM DEI GLORIAM ("to the greater glory of God") = 156
CVPIO DISSOLVI ("I want to be dissolved") = 156
DISCENDO DISCIMVS ("while teaching we learn") = 156
GENS VNA SVMVS ("we are one people") = 156
AVT VIAM INVENIAM AVT FACIAM ("I will either find a way or make one") = 225
NISI DOMINVS FRVSTRA ("it is in vain without the Lord") = 225 -

"143
Venus Invicta
Nosce Te Ipsum
Veritas Aeterna"Thanks for continuing to dig into this. I already had the last two in the catalogue (but maybe not in the version I published?). You might be interested in knowing that 143 is also the value of Aurum Solis' alternative name, Ordo Sacri Verbi, "Order of the Sacred Word."

I'm not sure Greek should be transliterated as Latin, especially since there is so well developed a Greek Qabbalah.
I think you added wrong BTW. Abrahadabra is 53, not 50. Same as, oh, all sorts of things, among them Liber AL, ad lucem, Bacchus, ecclesia, esto, mons, spes, and the important historic notariqon, I.H.S.V.
"Edit- While I'm at it... AEON is 31 and AEONS is 48."
That's pretty cool. Yes, aeon is Latin. In Latin, 31 is also Nu, among other things.

"93, LIBER LIBERI"
The Book of Wine. I'm going to have to go back and look at what I'd already published in Pearls, etc. Yes, this pure Latin, pure elegant find has been in the private catalogue for decades and I thought I would have included it in the public one. In any case, thanks for mentioning it.
In case I have mentioned them before, a few other 93s are:
AL VEL LEGIS - Titles of The Book of the Law
LUNA MATER - "The Moon is the Mother"
MULETUM - Amulet
OMNIA AB UNO - All from one
PROBATOR - Supporter, backer, approver
REGULUS - “The little king;” etc."95, V.V.V.V.V."
Yes, the notariqon of Vi Verum Vniversum Vivus Vici (which, itself, is 348). A favorite link to this in 95 is Pertinax, literally "persevering, unyielding," and particularly relevant in Liber VII 2:13.
"112, CHORONZON"
Isn't the original spelling in Dee Coronzon? (I'm going from memory. I'm going from memory - the ch was from Crowley's transliteration into Hebrew. That would back it off to 104, which has numerous important words and phrases, most of them utterly ironic.
"134, LIBER L. VEL LEGIS"
Yes, that's in the catalogue. Hard to believe I didn't publish it. 134 is also ensis manui meae, one way of saying, "a sword in my hand."

"I think you misunderstood. I said Abrahadabra is 53, just like Telhma.
I don't like transliterations in most cases, but since it's these two Words and it's not that stretchy I ran with it."
Well, yeah, I can see that point
. I'll go back and look above, I could swear you said it was 50, but I probably read wrong.EDIT - OK, I see how I misread it. Correct, you said it was 53
Sorry 'bout that. -

It keeps digging into me
LQS has thus far proven to be a mind-baffling, sophisticated channel for crucial personal revelations.
I don't even bother to learn the letter-number attributions by heart, or to think about the theory why it works - it works, and works superbly. -
I have my own system for English Gematria which came to me after pondering Achad's Liber 31, and I have an online Gematria database of Qabalah entries in which I've verified and corrected every entry in Sepher Sephiroth from scholarly sources and run hundreds of English words and phrases in my own English system; but I think I need to start adding LQS entries (and an LQS calculator function) to it as well ...
