"If it were an equation, there would be no reason to look into the second half, as it would be the same as the first."

The second half is mathematically equal to the first, so it is an equation.

Any thoughts on the qabalistic significance of the structure of this equation?

p.s. I must admit that my use of "AL 1:56" was half in jest and half an excuse for me to not bother explaining what I don't quite understand as well as the first part. That being said; I would welcome any critiques, interpretations, opinions and the like in regards to the equation.

Love is the law, love under will.

P.S. Choronzon = 333 = 9 vs. Choronzom = 323 = 8

((56 × 11) + 50) ÷ 2 = ((32 × 10) + 3) + 10

56 = Day (יום)
11 = Feast (חג)
56 × 11 = 616 = The Law (התורה)

"A feast every day in your hearts in the joy of my rapture!" - AL 2:42
"I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations." - Psalms 108:3

50 = Gates of Understanding
50 + 616 = 666 = The Gold of Solomon (1 Kings 10:14)

"For he is ever a sun..." - AL 1:16

2 = Duality = 1+1
Thus: 333+333 = 666

...

"...solve the first half of the equation, leave the second unattacked." - AL 1:56

"What website do you use for finding the times like that?"

Resh Reminder

93!

Does anyone know of a Hebrew phrase that could be taken as notariqon for ADNI? I have this little hypothesis that I'm working on and due to my extremely limited knowledge of the Hebrew language, I'm quite stumped...

93∝93/(70+23)

There is no law beyond Do what thou wilt.

"These are fools that men adore; both their Gods & their men are fools."

Useless squabbles.

"Second approach: Preserve both the Names and the Elements to the Quarters suggested by the revision – Earth, Air, Water, Fire, clockwise beginning in the East – but rearrange all of the associated symbolism as well by simply swapping “bellow” and “roar.” Bellow “Therion” in the East, say “Nuit” in the North, whisper or hiss Babalon in the West, and roar Hadit in the South. This conforms to the simplest interpretation of the revision manuscript evidence: that Crowley simply missed reversing the words “bellow” and “roar” during his editing of the manuscript.
"

Or one could simply swap "whisper" and "say"; creating an equally valid and intriguing set of symbolic correspondences while preserving the original macrocosmic scheme of the ritual. Perhaps Crowley intentionally "messed up" in order to leave this ritual open-ended and workable on different levels?

"Those who regard this ritual as a mere device to invoke or banish spirits, are unworthy to possess it. Properly understood, it is the Medicine of Metals and the Stone of the Wise."

In quinary 93 is represented as 333.

616 = 2^3 x 7 x 11

which also translates as 8 x 77 or 7 x 88 or 56 x 11

It seems that 616 has a much more direct relationship to the mystical numerical system of Thelema than previously thought.

The difference between 666 and 616 is 50 (nun) I think this should be taken into consideration as well. I haven't drawn solid conclusions or strong enough ideas to posit a proper thesis yet, so I give you these mere musings and fragmented thoughts.

I'm sure it's enough information to aid each in drawing your own conclusions.
