Golden Dawn - Zelator Knowledge Lecture

[Alex Sumner]

On page 65 of the 6th Edition, (127 of the old edition), there is the
attribution of the planets and the corresponding Angels, Intelligences and
Spirits. I am just wondering if Regardie originally copied out the table
wrongly - or if not Regardie himself, perhaps it was the fault of someone
from whom he received his material.

I ask this because:

1. The Angels look suspiciously like a badly spelt list of the
Archangels of the Sephiroth - e.g. "Cassiel" instead of "Tzaphqiel",
"Sachiel" instead of "Tzadqiel", "Zamael" instead of "Kamael", and "Hanael"
instead of "Haniel";

2. Michael and Raphael appear to be flipped - with the Sephiroth they
represent Hod (Mercury) and Tiphereth (Sol), but with the planets they are
assigned to Sol & Mercury respectively.

3. There are a number of instances in which the English transliteration
doesn't correspond with the Hebrew. I am dubious as to whether the Hebrew
itself is correct, as it seems mighty convenient that the gematria of the
names of the Intelligences and Spirits just so happens to coincide with that
of the Kameae of the corresponding planets. E.G. The Intelligence of Jupiter
as given in the Aurum Solis material is "Iophiel", spelt "IVPhIAL".
Curiously, it is listed in "The Golden Dawn" as "Iophiel", but spelt
"IHPhIAL" - "Jehaphiel" - which, by conveniently changing one letter brings
the gematria to 136, corresponding to the Kamea of Jupiter. Hmmm...

4. However, the Intelligence of Luna seems to be strange yet again - firstly
the G.'.D.'. and Crowley disagree on what it should be. The G.'.D.'. says
"Malka be Tharshisim ve-od Ruachoth Shechalim": AC in "Sepher Sephiroth"
says "Malka be Tharshishim ve-od Bruah Sheharim." (The Aurum Solis simply
says "Malkah be Tharshishim").

With this in mind, I have tentatively drawn up the following table:

Name of Planet in Hebrew: Angel: Intelligence:
Spirit
Shabathai ShBThAI Tzaphqiel Agiel
Zazael [ZZAL]
Tzedeq TzDQ Tzadqiel
Jehaphiel[IHPhIAL] Hismael

Shemesh ShMSh Raphael Nakiel [NKIAL]

Actually, the book is filled with typos, errors, and innaccuracy like
it's buckshot.

Yeah but my point is that some of the so-called errors seem to have been
done deliberately.

Possibly a trap for anyone stupid enough to work off of a single book
without doing any outside research amd without thinking about the
correspondances or meditating on them. no single book should be taken
at face value without any consideration.
