QABALISTIC CROSS

Two versions of the most basic and most important ritual of
blessing, balancing and protection in the Golden Dawn repertoire.


QABALISTIC CROSS -- BASIC

1. Stand facing East, with good posture but relaxed.

2. Visualize yourself getting bigger and bigger, until the Earth is a tiny dot beneath your feet.

3. Perceive a Point of White Light far above you.

4. With your right hand, reach up to the Light.

5. While chanting: ATAH, guide this light down to the point above and between your eyes (the Third Eye).

6. While chanting: MALKUTH, draw the Light downward thru your body to your feet, filling yourself with White Light.

7. Perceive the same Point of White Light far to your right. With your right hand, reach out and guide the Light to your right shoulder, chanting: VE GEBURAH.

9. Continue to draw the Light across your body to your left shoulder, touching it, then extending the Light far to the left, chanting: VE GEDULAH.

10. Bring both hands together on your heart, chanting: LE OLAM.

11. Clasping your hands in prayer, breath deeply to absorb all this Light and Energy. Chant: AMEN.

According to Godwin's Cabalistic Encyclopedia:

"'Cabala' is spelled any number of ways: beginning with c, k, or q; with and without the b doubled; with and without the l doubled; and with and without a final h. Crowley used Qabalah, the 'correct' transliteration of the Hebrew. Mathers and Waite used Kabbalah. C. C. Zain used Kabala, and, on the theory that Q must always be followed by u (notwithstanding that, in this case, it is meant to designate a hard k), Franz Bardon, among others, spelled it Quabbalah. I have used the spelling that is to be found in most dictionaries of the English language."

Godwin's Cabalistic Encyclopedia is an essential reference for anyone interested in ceremonial magick.

In Hebrew, Qabala is spelled Qoph-Beth-Lamed-Heh (QBLH) and means "tradition." It is sometimes interpreted as meaning "mouth-to-ear" or "oral tradition."
