Cols 412, 414 & 415
-
I'm wondering about col. 412, 'Angels Ruling Signs' (col.CXLII in 777). Crowley lists these angels as pertaining to the houses. I wonder if Crowley misattributed them, or if they do indeed pertain to the houses rather than the signs. I'd be interested to know the source of these names (I have a feeling I have it somewhere on my shelf - though a moderate search hasn't turned them up).
Also, regarding cols 414 & 415, 'Angel Lords of the Triplicity' (by day and night) - do these angels rule over all 3 of the decans for each sign? I'm thinking maybe they rule the decans as a phenomena, by day and night, per sign, as opposed to a specific decan or the sign itself? I'd love to know the source of these names too, if possible.
Thanks much in advance to anybody that can help me out with these questions.

"House" is an old term meaning "sign," most commonly encountered in phrases like, "Aries is the day house of Mars." It's in this sense that he used it. - Most of these (and these particular columns IIRC) came from a GD 4=7 paper.

No actual interpretation of this has ever been provided, so guess away
Go talk to the angels and ask. (I was never interested enough to work those particular columns - I dealt with these more in groups, clusters, gangs - but made sure to faithfully reproduce the names as delivered.)
