Under the seal of the Obligation of the VI".
De Solo Deo
From the Beginning of Years the feitietes of el peoples ave held one
central secret as a sure Bond of Brotherhood, 2s a unity whose truth is able
toharmonize all men upon the Fart,
"No fabrications of knavish priests, no vain dreams of mystics, can bide
fromthe sane this one fact:
"Not only ie the Earth bt chilled spark ef the Sun, « dropped petal of |
the Rose of Heaven, but the source of all Light und Life upon the planet is
that sare Sun. Not only is he ereetor, but sustairer, and itis He also that
desiroyeth in due season, and redeemeth when the time is come.
‘Therefore inthe Macrocosm is one sole God, the Sun.
[Now in the Microcssm, which is Man, the viceregent of the Sun, sole
iver off, i the Phallus. He isalso sole giver of Light ip a certain senet
Sense not fully declared in the VIF, This much may We hint: dhe Phallus is
the plysiological hasis of the Oversoul (see also Liber 333, The Book of
es, Ceps. A, H, TATE, IF, If), AB) Ard also of His own nature is He
Liberty nd Love.
‘Now of old cur brethren hid this doetine in tradition, and in fable, and
in great buildings, and in the Rituals of Freemasonry. With this Key all
these Rituals become intelligible, luminous, radiant; without i they are

Search and see,
ML De Dets Subelternis:
In this book we have no need to speak of local and tribal Gods, of
aniimisti personifictions of patil phenomene, and the lke.
Butof the universal Gods es these:
‘The Fire; an image of Sol, aa! fable ofthe Phallus.
‘The Moon, an imageot Kei, only worshipped with Sol inhisaspect as
an extension ofthe Phallus.270
‘The Mountain: reverencedasthe tome ofthe Gods the visite pace of
Aherising of Sol, ends by shape symbolica ofthe Phallus. Sore mountains
are female, tron shape or traiion.
The Ancestor; revered as an incametio ofthe Phallus
The Yoni os Kieis, revered as the House of the Phallus, and his,
complement
The Snake; cevered as giver of Death, and as a symbol of the
‘Spermatozoon, He has often the head of
‘he Lion; to inieate the mighty power ofthe Spormstozoon.
The Fg ever Soler, and ipitselfasthe vehicle of Pallic ener.
The Eagle; aod many olker winged creatures also wings attached to
the symbols. This repesons the Might of Life fom one restirgeplace Wo
mote, ands therefore a prope attribute ofthe Phallus.
‘The Tree; is bute flowering Phallus.
The Stars: these being the concourse ofthe Brethren ofthe Sun arc
venerable forthe Wise even ss He. And the sar-uriverse is it were His
‘Mother, whence Nits the highest and hoes ofall hat my be. And her
mate is Hadi the seeret and essential energy of Life whose raiment isthe
Phallus, wiercfove fs Fadi equal with Her, he highest and hliest of ll
that way be, And Theis Child RaHoor-Kiuit isthe visible Sol-Phallus
upon earth, But this tsa mystery ofthe Aeps of Thelema and the vulgar
‘may not attain to it.

INL De Natura Dei Soli
In that Sanctuary ofthe Gnosis to which, Very Mlustrious Sir Knights
your valour and chastity may one day obtain your admission, there is @
‘ertain deeper interpetation. Now are ye wholly ignoract of how in the
Figure called Baphomet and Babalon is a Measure of Heaven and Earth,
‘Again, these, Initiates indeed, wh huve penetrated ia uth into the
Sanctuaries of their ovn Being, and found That God Omnipotent,
‘Ornniscient, Ormnipresent who is Light, Love, and Liberty, beyond Lime
and Space, without quantity orquafity, One Etemal, the very esenee of the
‘Sun and of the Phallus alike, will possess in their own consciousness,
illaminated by Test, cern apprehension ofthe Truth which not ie any
vay to be shared by these who have not attained to this Treasure,
“These, if they are wise, will make no etterpt to disckse this Inner
Truth the profane, bu wil be contert that they rest inthe shadow ofthat
am
extemal Truth which We have declared unto you, that Gods One, and that
His name is in the Macrocosm the Sun, and in the Microcosm the Phallus.
For al tizmpts to nitate even the worthy before they invite themselves
ae folly aa fatality. The Seeetsof the Wise, although known of them, are
otto be expressed in the language of comsion men. Look you Sit Knights,
this Doctrine itself that We reveal toyou inthis Supreme Grand Counel to
‘hich ye have attained so hardly, how wall it sound, think you, even in 2
Consistory of Princes of the Royal Secret. prepared as they are for some
such revelation? How then to mere Knights Kadosc, to Sovereign Princes
‘of Rose Croix? And how te Master Masons? I is for this reason that our
Counc is thas Sentnelled within and without, and that our whote Ritual
from Minerval upward is buts constant series of hints of this Ove Truth.
‘What is the tent of Saladin but the Pullus? And the First Word asthe
last is ON, the Sun.
But were the Minerval to suspest this truth, would he nol tur to flee in
terror from the Camp and be eut down by the Black Guerd that wardeth
even the eutrost marches of the Kingdem of the Most Hely and Most
High Lond God Almighty?
‘Therefore, reflect, act wisely and with prudence, Sic Knights, not
deelating openly the Arcanum to such as understand not already of their
‘own ripe wit. And in what time seemeth Him good shall the 0.4.0,
‘guhering his forces, declare this Truth privily unto the Kings and Princes
of the Earth, that they may take counsel together ard rule all men in peace
‘and love by virte of this Secret under the Shadow of the Wings ofthe One
ineffable Lord.
For this secret isnot only 2 convenient manuer of doing this, Pillar of
tame to disperse the Shadows of Earth, but it also « convenient veil —
‘end the only veil worthy — of tht further Light which We are notable to
‘reveal even to this Supreme Grane Council of the 0-10,
IV De Deis Phanaastit
fall our enemies those are most tobe Feared, whe make false gods of
their imaginations.
For the heathen are tamed easily from gods of clay; for truth strikes
hore sharply on thei dark: minds. Is easy to prove that the Sun is indeed
the source of Life ad Licht, thatthe Phallus is indeed PANGENETOR.
Putto those whohave stuffed themselves, who have darkened thle owt
«96s, who bave betrayed their own reason in seeking out phantastic gods,
‘oul and tangled cobwebs of metaphysics spun by emaseulste spider-
professorsin suns loiters, bubbles blown by idiots and madsen, mths
misinterpreted, fables taken for history, lies pushed forvard by every forgery,
framd, treachery and muer, te such the Truth seems false, and the Light
divkness,
Such Gods as Parsbrahman merely bewilder the people, and render
them the prey of priesteraft, while the Christs ofthe Latin, Lutheran andm
‘Anglican Churches alike are but the machine-gods of all fraud and
‘opnression, being stolen and prostituted from that Christin whom our
Fathers inthe Gnosis rove to sntheize the warring gods of Sys, reson,

V De Attuno Dei Sulte
Here declare We a cersin secret method of vexsiip ofthe One True
God if haply ye may find Him.
Let every Knight sppointa privy Chapel in hie easle, an so far as may
beletitresemble this order and isposition of Our Supreme Grand Council,
having an ever-burning Inmyp as an image of the Sun to give light to @
Phallus carved or moulded in gold, silver, platinum or bronze by the fine
arto he souptor, And et the Knight keep ctimcs vigil before, devotedly
ith bis whole heart uttering hymns and invocations, as may be fting, end
cexalting himself in due corumemoration ofthis Lord of Life, in such wise
‘ak the Image becomes consecrated by his will Ths shall tbe storehouse
of strength and a focus or magnet, drawing to self all subele forces. and
radiating benediction.
‘Let then the Knight keep secret this devotion, and enjoy is fruits in
niet.
VI De Det Cuda etter modus
Here also isa deeper worship and an inner, that Heth nigherto the heart
of God.
Let the good Knight devout appoint a seeret shrine in his own body es
the brain, or in the throat, o in the heat, or inthe sela plex, or in that
place called groin, crn sume other contreof fore, and there let him establish
firmly a mental image of the Phallus or ofthe Sun; and, closing ell avenues
the lodge, let him worship and cherish tha image
‘ith unnvearying care. Let him rehearse before the Lord thus exalted his
‘own deod of nightly devoirunto that Lor, sothat Memory and Imagination
as maids about the Maypole. And to these let him add
‘Will, consecrating himself with oeths to the service ofthe Lord, and vowing
tomuake himself a wortay priest unto Him, Thus, then, the whole thoughtam
being closely knit together ard ranged about the Image, as soldiers thet
nally to Standerd, fet his turn devoutly and intensely kis mind tothe sole
contemplation ofthat Imayge, firing ts himself that all other thoughts are
bbutas cowans and eavesdroppers. Now then, fora season shal it be difficult
rightly to tyle that Lodge, aod the maid sball turn ever from the Image. 50
therefore let the good Knight with frtitude redouble zea, uni it be that
‘ona sudden all that turmoil cease, and the thought flow evenly up to the
mage. Then shall the God appear inal Fis glory, essuming the worshippers
into His Heaven,
I De wrzentio ultimo 0.81.0.
Re it known unto you, Very Mlustious Sir Knights Councillors, that
there tieth beyond ail this a supreme mode by which God not only
‘anifesteth Himself o man, buts with him united in most sweet nuptials.
But this mystery is motto be known of ther that are not yet niiates ofthe
