Liber Stellae Rubeae's text questions
-
After experiencing first-hand the benefits of memorizing chapter I of Liber LXV, I became "Holy Book hungry" and set upon myself the task of memorizing the "lesser" Holy Books, that is, B, Porta Lucis, Stellae Rubeae, Tzaddi, Cheth and A'ash. (But not Arcanorum and Tau. Forget it, they're a freaking nightmare! Trigrammaton will be enough of a pain in the future.)
So, approaching Stellae Rubeae, there's this:
Mu pa telai,
Tu wa melai
ā, ā, ā.
Tu fu tulu!
Tu fu tulu
Pa, Sa, Ga.Qwi Mu telai
Ya Pu melai;
ū, ū, ū.
’Se gu malai;
Pe fu telai,
Fu tu lu.O chi balae
Wa pa malae:—
Ūt! Ūt! Ūt!
Ge; fu latrai,
Le fu malai
Kūt! Hūt! Nūt!Al ŌĀĪ
Rel moai
Ti—Ti—Ti!
Wa la pelai
Tu fu latai
Wi, Ni, Bi.How is that pronounced? (I realize I may be asking too much. ) Is it more or less like it's written?
Also, there's this verse:
Then thou shalt excite the wheels with the two and the third in the midst; even ♄ and ♃, ☉ and ☽, and , and ☿.
How to deal with the symbols? For instance, should I memorize/say ☉ as "Sun", as "Sol", or ignore the word altogether and think of the symbol itself in the proper place?
Thanks.

Patrick, are you familiar with this thread? no direct answers to this particular questions you asked there, but maybe you'll find something else useful :

I'm not sure anyone knows for sure how to pronounce the Moon Language, but it always seemed to me that it was being marked for vowel pronunciation as in Latin (though, for no conscious reason, the u always comes out of my mouth as in French).
For the planets - again, this is an opinion question. I would most definitely say them, and I personally say "Sun" and "Moon".
