BRH Expansion of אראריתא

[Jim Eshelman]

@Meletiros said

According to what I have read, the expansion of אראריתא would be
אחד ראש אחדותו
אחד ראש יחודו
תרומתו אחד
Is this correct?
Exactly when should this be spoken in the BRH?
Should it be spoken or vibrated?

This is discussed in multiple other threads on this forum. - Additionally, full instructions for the Hexagram Ritual are given in an appendix to 776 1/2.

I found an easy way to do it - here's a snip out of the Philosophus chapter of The Mystical & Magical System of the A.'.A.'.

Click "Advanced Search." It has instructions.

"I apologize, I must be doing something wrong; for example, I enter 'BRH' and hit enter, and the result is "No suitable matches".
So I was wondering what kind of input is expected"

You're probably the only person alive who uses "BRH" for that. Why not try searching on "hexagram" or "Ararita," for example?

[Jim Eshelman]

Excellent. (When I made the last post, I stopped and dropped "Ararita" into the search box above, and got a whole stream of relevant things.)

"Is the אראריתא formula used only in the Greater Invoking Ritual of the Hexagram, and not used in the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Hexagram?"

The formula (that is, the full sentence of which A.R.A.R.I.Th.A. is an abbreviation) is used in both.

Adapted (somewhat reduced) from the instructions in 776 1/2 (Appendix) - the original has more explanatory notes:

1. Face east. Become relaxed. Regularize and deepen your breathing. Stand upright, your feet together, and your arms at your sides. Fill your aura with light and love. Raise the right arm, bent at the elbow, so that the right hand, holding the wand or other implement upright, is at the medi-an line of the body.

2. Then say:

I.N.R.I.
Yod, Nun, Resh, Yod.
Virgo, Isis, Mighty Mother.
Scorpio, Apophis, Destroyer.
Sol, Osiris, Slain and Risen.
Isis, Apophis, Osiris, IAO.

3. Assume the Sign of Osiris Slain, and say: The Sign of Osiris Slain.

4. Assume the Sign of Isis Mourning, and say: The Sign of the Mourning of Isis.

5. Assume the Sign of Typhon, and say: The Sign of Apophis and Typhon.

6. Assume the Sign of Osiris Risen, and say: The Sign of Osiris Risen.

7. Extend the arms again as in the Sign of Osiris Slain, then cross them again as in the Sign of Osiris Risen, and say: L.V.X., Lux, the Light of the Cross.

8. Facing east, trace the Hexagram of Air before you, in yellow-gold flame. Touch, with the point of your implement, the center of the common baseline of the two triangles, and intone:
   Echad, rosh ache’dutho, rosh yichudutho, t’muratho echad [hereafter referred to as A.R.A.R.I.Th.A.]

9. Turn, or move, to the south, tracing a line from the center of the first hexagram. In the south, trace the Hexagram of Fire. Touch, with your implement, the center of the base line of the upper triangle, and intone A.R.A.R.I.Th.A.

10. Continue to the west, and trace in that quarter the Hexagram of Water. Touch, with your implement, the point joining the two triangles, and intone A.R.A.R.I.Th.A.

11. Continue round to the north, and trace the Hexagram of Earth in that quarter. Touch, with your implement, the center of the hexagram, and intone A.R.A.R.I.Th.A.

12. Continue back to the east, completing the connecting circle.

13. Repeat steps 1-7 above.
