I have question relating to the table on page 53.

BAG is attributed to Aries, Taurus, and Leo.
In Weiser's edition of Liber 418 edited by Hymenaeus Beta, letter G (ged) is attributed to Cancer not to Leo.
Crowley's commentaries seem to follow Cancer attribution (for example see footnote 1 on page 46 when he analyses letters he + vau + **chet **and gets 19 ("Eve", "to manifest", "to shew forth".)

Also, in Visions & Voices letter P (mals)is attributed to Cancer but in Weiser's edition, that letter is attributed to Leo.
Again, Crowley's commentaries seem to support Leo attribution (for example see footnote 1 on page 100).

So it looks as if we have two letters changed. This is quite important problem because these attributions throw light on astrological interpretation of the aethyrs.

Which edition is correct?

Dear All,

Here is Crowley's old commentary to that verse:

"'Abstruction'. It was thought that this meant to combine abstraction and construction, i.e. the preparation of a replica, which was done.
Of course, the original is in "locked glass."

How about that?
