8Th April 1904 - The Day Ov NuitHad! The Manifestation ov Nuit…On the eight ov April, year 1904 ov a dying Aeon, The jewel ov Cairo, visited by the heart ov a libertine and his deranged wife On a day ov intoxication and depraved splendor He arrived: a herald ov an upcoming age: the angel ov light: Aiwass… Hypnotized and driven into insane obedience The prophet thus began scribing the Law: A law for few and the secret Who shall rule above the many & known A law for the awaken ov heart and soul Who shall rule above the day-sleepers & ignorants Now ye shall know that the chosen priest is the Beast And to his Scarlet Woman all power is given For he is ever a phallic, paternal Sun And she like a pudendum, a maternal Earth But to him is the winged secret flame, and to her the ever stooping starlight The word ov the Law is θέλημα Who calls us Thelemites will do nothing wrong Do What Thou Wilt shall be the whole ov the law The word ov Sin is Restriction Ra-Hoor-Khuit hath taken his seat in the East at the Equinox ov the Gods Thus this new Aeon begins, and thou art its prophet! I am the blue-lidded daughter ov Sunset; I am the naked brilliance ov the voluptuous night-sky A law for clandestine few Who shall reign above the revealed masses A law for the truly conscious Who shall reign above the blinded, enslaved ignorants |
