Z2 and Equinox 1-3
-
Hello,
I read that Z2 - and the formula of the neophyte - is contained in Equinox 1-3. Is this contained in The Temple of Solomon?
Thank you.
-
Yes. I'd have to look to confirm the issue, but that's where it is. (Sections are headed Yod, Heh, Aleph of Shin, Mem of Shin, Shin of Shin, Vav, and Heh.)
-
Thank you so much Jim.

I created an index of The Temple of Solomon the King as the sections are published in the 10 volumes on the Equinox. Neophyte 0=0 is in I.II page 245.

I find the 0=0 ritual is full of arcana, quite extraordinary if you study it in detail.
One question I have had though, is being the ritual is a ceremony requiring multiple officers and sentinels, etc. How does one perform the ritual for a individual? I'm sure it is quite an experience with the full temple and assembly...but its not clear how a sole practitioner can pull it off.

I have not used this way yet, but you could check “Self-Initiation Into the Golden Dawn Tradition” (Chic & Tabata Cicero).

Thanks...looks good www.amazon.com/Self-Initiation-Into-Golden-Dawn-Tradition/dp/1567181368
I can see how this can be done in lucid dream ritual. Each station is the dreamer, but invokes the associated force, and follows the formula to completion.

Crowley's Liber Pyramidos was created during his John St. John retirement as a self-initiation, and is based on the A.'.A.'.'s version of the Neophyte ritual. This means that it was am implementation of the Z2's "Shin of Shin" formula.
