Visualizing Aiwass.
-
My money is on this one:
-
I tend to like this guy.
<<Image appears to be removed by Wordpress or they don't like linkbacks>>
-
The objectivity is in the underlying structure, not the apparent form.
-
Personally when I think of Aiwass I wouldn't say there is much that I visualize. Crowley described the source of Liber AL as a voice behind him but that he had an impression of the figure as tall, dark and I believe even Arabic - so personally I liked the image Iugum offered us.
-
Sorry for misunderstanding.
To contribute - I picture him as something like in the link to Nabu, but with armored foot and shin guards, and a short, white veil, that hangs from his brow like a curtain. And a certain, indefinable 'insect-like' quality to him - lean and angular, and definitely not human.

"I tend to like this guy.

I thought it was a pun - intending to say ''forget the image, create your own'' or something like that

"My question is far more simple; if you see Aiwass in your mind what does he/her/it look like?
An example: if I read a newspaper and it says something along the lines of "A wrestler died in a plane crash today" an image of Hulk Hogan shooting down to earth in a 747 pops into my head."
no image. just the voice...

This always brought to my mind's eye Atu V, The Hierophant, from The Book of Thoth.

I always imagined him as a tall dark skinned man, not real dark, but a milk chocolate, like persian . And weiring a short skirt like some egyptian gods, shin guards, cuffs, arm bands, mabye a a round golden plate necklace, the realy wide one's, and something like a persian version of this. but more of a pale yellow, and a muddy green(stripes). www.artyfactory.com/egyptian_art/egyptian_crowns/images/crown_1.jpg
And sometimes holding something in his right hand. A short rod mabye? -
It might be best it picture Aiwass as a pink light reflected from a soviet satellite.
Or as force out side of time that manifests simultaneously as Aleister Crowley in Cairo 1904 and Ankh af na khonsu in Cairo at the change between Isis and Osiris.Much like how Phillip K Dick claimed that he was simultaneously an early Christian in 60 AD Rome, saying that time was actually an illusion. That everything that happens is merely a retelling of the book of acts. Thus Crowley was in that sense merely a character in the replaying of the story of the changing aeon in Egypt, but replay might be a misunderstanding, since it's a single event in an timeless eternity that manifest as different points in a cyclical time line.
That is if we really want to get into the mind set of Crowley and Dick's sort of gnosticism.

I suppose I'd be disappointed if you weren't as friggin' insane as ever.
"Or as force out side of time"
True of HGAs and other 4th dimensional beings in general.
"That is if we really want to get into the mind set of Crowley and Dick's sort of gnosticism."
So you aspire to be a Dick head?
-
Basically here I am relating Crowley's account in Across the Gulf with Phillip K. Dick's VALIS.

His right foot can be seen here:

Which is all that remains unfortunately, although appropriate given the 5th power of the sphinx.

Is that the purplish bluish one in the middle? the sphinx has a fifth power
-
Yeah, playing footsie
(a google will help you, though, it's not secret)

Yes, and it goes a bit like the fourth.
I'm hoping the blue foot is Aiwass, unless Crowley turned blue when he saw him.

the babe in the blue egg?(= 5th power). The 4th power is to be silent, Earth, the throne/womb for the babe to manifest in. Got it.

TO GO as doth a GOD.

gold star for you

If I remember rightly there's a diagram towards the back of the Book of Thoth showing the powers of the sphinx on a pentagram.
