    Also, "ON" is the reply that god gives about who he is, in the old testament.
    -"Who are you?" **
    -
    "Ο ΩΝ"** (Greek for "HE WHO IS")

    "ΩΝ" is pronounced same as the word "on" in english. It can be translated as "being".
    I don't know if this has any connection. Could be an egyptian god as Jim mentioned.

    Or an egyptian correspondence to the Sun which would connect it to a few gods.

    That's quite strange, since the Old Testament wasn't written in Greek.

    It's an Egyptian name for the Sun. In fact, it's the older Egyptian name of the city the Greeks called Heliopolis.

    Set/Sat/Saturn stands for being.

    He is connected to Apollo, the the Sun.

    The Sun certainly is always "ON" in any real state.

    Yeah but it was the oldest language it was translated afterwords, the most spoken language of the time.

    "It's an Egyptian name for the Sun. In fact, it's the older Egyptian name of the city the Greeks called Heliopolis."
    That makes sense since Heliopolis literaly means "Suncity"

    "In Liber Samekh, it states in the Element of Water that Babalon is the bride of the great god "ON", and the line below it refers to another female who is the bride and sister of the great god "ON", "by the power of eleven."

    Am I correct to assume that ON is the "Son" of Babalon, "Gate of", and that ASAL ON AI is the sister/bride of the god ON?"

    When I first read the passage, I just assumed Crowley was talking about himself. He refers to himself as the Beast - which Babalon usually rides upon. He refers to himself as 'sunshine' also, so I just assumed he was talking about himself again in some cryptic way per usual.

    "by the power of eleven" 11=magick.

    Actually, you might make a comparison to Isis, being the mother of Horus, and Hathor, being the sister and bride of Horus.

    Heru-Ra-Ha = "Horus Sun Flesh"

    Also, by the power of eleven, because that is where the sephira is where Tiphereth will be when it is restored. It is also where it was before the great "fall".

    In his work, he compares and equates himself to Osiris, Horus, even Ra. However, I think had different meanings attached to this piece of work.

    For instance, Crowley never identifies himself as a God, per se. Now he does identify Horus, Ra Hoor Khuit, and Heru Ra Ha as certain Gods of this Universe.

    There is something mystic, secret, and beautiful going on between the current of Isis and Hathor.

    The reason Crowley equates himself as the Sun comes from the fact that he and the scarlet woman are responsible for the manifestation of the Sun, or Son, in Malkuth. Catastrophe ensues, people are scared/enlightened, Lucifer casts the mighty Thunderbolt, everyone has a good time.

    This part of the moving of the Earth into the West. RHK takes his place in the East at the Great Equinox, even though he represents two horizons, his power in the new Aeon is concentrated in the East, thus the child Horus as well, as the new rising Sun representing newness of life, strength, child-like innocence of the pure fool evolving slowly into Pan, after seizing the sacred lance or wand.

    Apologies for my laziness, however reading through this post, ask I must if what is referred to as "Ο ΩΝ", or "He Who Is", is the equivalent of Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh, "I am Who/That/What I am"?

    Many thanks,

    Well, I don't know, it could be. I don't have the hebrew version of the old testament and even if I did I wouldn't be able to tell if the pronunciation of the words would match to "Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh". But I think you can find on the net one of Eliphas Levi original french versions of magic and ritual where these words are first presented.... I think.

    Yes, it is, but only to "Ehyeh".

    I don't know that the phrase occurs in the Septuagint or the New Testament, but in Eastern Orthodox Xn iconography, Jesus is almost always portrayed with the phrase "Ho On" on his halo. Undoubtedly an allusion to "Ehieh asher ehieh" is intended.

    Also, for the record, the city On is mentioned by that name three times in the Old Testament, where it is actually spelled Aleph Nun (Gen. 41:45, Gen 46:20) and Aleph Vav Nun (Gen. 41:50).

    I am going to be very vulgar right now:

    "On" is the opposite of "Off"

    Add to that all possible translations, cyphered permutations, and practical uses of either term, (especially but not necessarily intimately connected)... that is "On"

    They are binary in one view, as is reality, in terms of cycles, waves, patterns and tendencies, and are trinary in another, as all that is the same, but it is in a substrate (the Absolute, Time-Space, the Ether et cetera).

    This message brought to you by my computer on "ON".

    Brings to mind the Day and Night of Brahma, which has an increadibly LONG wavelength.
