This Tooth is called Passion. Passion is part of one of the qabalah ‘great paths’ along with Incest. The secret unity of these two paths (called a great path) is the Passion between Eris and the Urlking/Philosopher (also a great path). Elswhere these two figures are Superman/Boudica whose child is the Foetus (these two also form a great path).

Note how Superman was analysed into two parts in an earlier post. The ubermensch and the literal superman of cartoon physicality. These two are mirrored in the double path of Philosopher/Urlking. Boudica and Eris are identified with each other. Both representing strife and vengence.

In the Hyperqabalah Passion is Pnaslokied. It is preceded in the circuit by Kirolgnu (the Urlking) and fed into by Bnasupach (Pan). Pnaslokied feeds into Lygtwyth (Twlight).

Today’s Tooth is Isis. It has a resonance to the Star of the Tarot. Hence associations are Sirius and Dogs.

I am perpetually struck by the notion of different outcomes or regions in the realm that we call the spiritual. Buddhism is fascinating in its practical approach to the issue, yet it does sometimes seem to assume its outcome ‘enlightenment’ is the outcome.

What does an outcome mean here even? It shares with psychoanalysis the way in which it can answer all issues. If I wish to deviate fro this end point it can simply say ego has triumphed. Maybe it has fro this perspective but are there other ways that go to not the same place, as is often supposed.

What if spirituality occupied a heterogenous territory and (for want of a better word) teleology?

The Tooth of the vector we call this day is Mithras. We are the Mouth of ‘Who’. The hyperqabalah node is called Rahimaot. It is the feeder node for Lehe.

I read a paper on strategy from the 80s by James Wilk. It concerned the notion of patterns in organisations and how small changes can alter general patterns. I was struck by this notion and its relation to magick. Magick is a nudge that alters the pattern from levels we cannot easily perceive. Reality is continuous as before but a subtle alteration changes the pattern.

Today is the Urlking. Nebulously related to the Emporer from the tarot but with a more sinister edge. One association is Toads, this could be related to the whole weird Kek Trump thing -interesting to note the Trump tarot connection, not spotted until this moment. It is one of the straightforwardly negative paths. In the Qabalah it is one half of the great path Philosophy/Urlking. The Philosopher is a tempering influence upon this malign form of masculinity and restores it to the kind of balanced individual imagined by Plato.

In the hyperqabalah it is Kirolgnu. Its feeder node it Yiwathd which is Death as a path. Yiwathd is not identical to death but it is related power that feeds Kirolgnu. No doubt this contributes to its negative manifestation from a human perspective.

It is worth reminding ourselves of the vector concept and its application in a calendar. The notion of vector theory in spatial terms is that we experience a field of spatial phenomenon, that, owing to our interactions with, we name.

We name first on a use basis (what fulfils the function of x) and then on an archtypal image basis (the common appearance of the most regular or classic x). The image accretes pneuma to it (conceptual force) which magickally reinforces the underlying structure of the vector to be more like the image. This is the everyday magickal feedback of all objects, subtle but real.

On the temporal front there are events that we can also accrete pneuma to. Equinoxes, solstices, weekdays. When we look at a calendar we know that there is a vector region -a period in which the earth rotates once (a day). We attach to this region a concept ‘Sunday’. This has various cultural magickal layers to it, which mean there is some power in these attachments (they are actual to the vector/pneuminous accretion, not simply psychological).

In the pneuminous calendar we experimentally reaccrete day/vector regions with a different concept. Likewise the month structure is also reaccreted with the Mouth structure. Conceptual stuff (Pneuma) is being accreted to temporal vectors.
