Briatic formulae
-
I'm curious as to the origin of the revolution of Atziluthic names in Briah listed in 776 & 1/2 (columns 1101, 1103 and 1104 for the names AHIH, YHVH and ADNI, respectively). I'm thinking these come from a specific Kabbalistic text (as opposed to something more modern)? Crowley merely states that "These attributions [for the the columns in question] are traditional."
Also, what is the origin of column 1210, "The Spelling of [YHVH] in the Four Worlds"?
Thanks in advance for any info,

The literal sources are mentioned at the bottom of each column. Without having a copy at hand, I suspect all of those indicate that they come from 777.
However, they are all very old Qabalistic patterns, primarily or exclusively Rabbinical. Crowley would have gotten them from the G.D. That Order would, in turn, have gotten then from a hodge-podge of sources. You can find essentially the same (for most of them) in works such as Kaplan's Sepher Yetzirah.

The revolution of the Names is taken verbatim from Rosenroth's Cabala Denudata, Partis Quarta, on Figura XVI. Rosenroth cut and pasted the Permutations primarily from Pardes Rimmonim by Rabbi Moshe Cordovero, OBM. The Angelic Names are from a variety of sources: RaMBaN, Beth Elohim/Casa La Divinidad, Emek Ha'Melekh, Pardes Rimmonim, etc.
I am unable to get the darn site to change/update my email, so I will not receive responses to this post, but I hope this is found helpful. 777 and Sepher Sephiroth are largely cut and pastes directly from Rosenroth. In fact many terms were not even translated from the Latin, and Crowley provides some abbreviations acknowledging Rosenroth's tome. In Sepher Sephiroth he takes a great many terms from Rosenroth's Lexicon section, and simply provides the gematria. Some of the other information in both *777 *and in Sepher Sephiroth is taken from GD schemas (see for example MGH SR SSDD's notes appended to The Westcott Court Cards edited by Darcy Kuntz of the GD Trust). Other information comes from Crowley, but the majority can be traced to the sources outlined above.

I bet you're trying to use a prohibited email account, such as a gmail account. - The email change feature works, but it won't accept prohibited accounts.
