6. Also it is better if in these adorations thou assume the God-form
of
Whom thou adorest, as if thou didst unite with Him in the adoration of
That
which is beyond Him.
7. Thus shalt thou ever be mindful of the Great Work which thou hast
undertaken to perform, and thus shalt thou be strengthened to pursue it
unto
the attainment of the Stone of the Wise, the Summum Bonum, True Wisdom
and
Perfect Happiness.
LIBER XXV
THE STAR RUBY.
Facing East, in the centre, draw deep deep deep thy breath closing thy
mouth with thy right forefinger prest against thy lower lip. Then
dashing
down the hand with a great sweep back and out, expelling forcibly thy
breath,
cry AO ANTO KAKOAIMONO.
With the same forefinger touch thy forehead, and say OI, thy member,
and
say AE {Note 1}, thy right shoulder, and say IXYPOS, thy left shoulder,
and say EYXAPITO; then clasp thine hands, locking the fingers, and cry
IA.
Advance to the East. Imagine strongly a Pentagram, aright, in thy
forehead.
Drawing the hands to the eyes, fling it forth, making the sign of Horus
and
roar PION. Retire thine hand in the sign of Hoor-paar-Kraat.
Go round to the North and repeat; but say NUIT.
Go round to the West and repeat; but whisper BABALON.
Go round to the South and repeat; but bellow HADIT.
Completing the circle widdershins, retire to the centre and raise thy
voice
in the Paian, with these words I AN, with the signs of N.O.X.
Extend the arms in the form of a Tau and say low but clear:
PO MOY IYE OIX MOY TEETAPXAI EI EIA
XYNOXE EAPITEPA AIMONO EEI AP EPI
MOY O ATHR TN ENTE KAI EN THI THGHI
ATHR TN E ETHKE.
Repeat the Cross Qabalistic, as above, and end as thou didst begin.

1. The secret sense of these words is to be sought in the numeration
thereof.
