Transcript

("Alex Sanders handwritten notes — Reunite of the symbols of Key of Solomon") --- 2481 29 Reunite of the symbols of Key of Solomon 63 — 11/7/83. (1) Side one. Introduction — Sanctum Regnum is out — Venus is olive green, not rose. (3) Pathway 25 — (26) no. Swastica of power, anticlockwise. Yod — upstanding phallus. Side two. "3[?] years..." should be eliminated. [Circled numbers are shown in parentheses.] Notes: - "Key of Solomon" (Clavicula Salomonis) is a well-known medieval grimoire of ceremonial magic, widely referenced in Western esoteric tradition. - "Sanctum Regnum" (Latin, "holy kingdom") is the title of Éliphas Lévi's "The Magical Ritual of the Sanctum Regnum, Interpreted by the Tarot Trumps", translated and edited by W. Wynn Westcott in 1896. The document does not say whether this work is meant. - The numbered pathways ("Pathway 25 — 26") may refer to paths on the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, which also appears in mow2342i1.jpg and mow2352i1.jpg. - Yod is the tenth letter of the Hebrew alphabet and the first letter of the Tetragrammaton (YHVH). - The swastika is an ancient symbol used in Hindu, Buddhist and Jain traditions, and in Western esotericism, long before its 20th-century political use. Authorship note: This document is Alex Sanders' own working notes, correcting/annotating a text. Straightforward single authorship: Alex Sanders.
