480 Therion (LAM the Alien)

Kenneth Grant says that Aliester Crowley made contact with an extra-terrestrial lifeform, called LAM, during a group of seances known collectively as the Amanthal workings. But on closer inspection, the Amanthal transcripts reveal no mention of any entity called LAM, or any encounter that might be construed as extra-terrestrial in a nature. Clearly, Grant is mistaken in this regard.

The only evidence for the Crowley's encounter with an extra-terrestrial named LAM, comes from this drawing that is currently in Grant's possession. Crowley claimed to have sketched the mysterious figure from life, and it appears on the cover of Crowley's critique of Helena Blavatski's The Voice of Silence, along with this subtext;

THE WAY; LAM is the Tibetan for Way or Path and LAMA is He who Goeth, the specific title of the Gods of Egypt, the treader of the Path, in Buddhistic phraseology. Its numerical value is 71, the number of this book.

It seems to be stretching credulity that Crowley should associate Tibetan Buddhism with the Ancient Egyptians belief system. But when we consider it, both religions are obsessed with death and the idea of death. To this effect, both cultures possess a Book of the Dead, which are detailed manuscripts designed to help initiates navigate the realms beyond. The symbol of the lotus features prominently in Tibetan Buddhism, just as the Blue Lotus does in Egyptian ceremonial rites. And, lest we forget, the Eye of Ra and the structure of the pyramid are common archetypal manifestations of meditation, in general. Note; the Egyptian word 'ankh' means to go and is used to denote a talisman carried by Egyptian Pharaohs and God's. "He who Goeth" must therefore mean He who travel on the Path to the Land of the Dead, and never returns again - in mortal form.

Another point of interest with this image is the number 49, which appears stylistically rendered in the bottom left hand corner of Crowley's LAM drawing. A member of the now defunct website the bapists head proposed that what Crowley was referring to Fragment #49 of Helena Blavatski's text The Voice of Silence, which clearly mentions 'the Path' in relation to meditative states;

49. Thou canst not travel on the Path before thou hast become that Path itself.

I believe that Crowley is only referencing this fragment incidentally, and that the real message is something far stranger. In 1909, eight years before the above picture had even seen the light of day, Crowley embarked upon a spiritual visionary quest to open the 49 gates of Enochian Magic. This magical system is said to allow the practitioner to converse with the Angels, and was developed by Sir John Dee and Ed Kelley in the 16th Century AD. Enochian Magic is also claimed to be a fully-fledged language, and it may be of interest to note that 'LAM' in Enochi translates as the path. The Keys to these Gates were presented by the 49 magic squares in Liber Loagaeth, of which Dee had this to say;

I am therefore to instruct and inform you, according to your Doctrine delivered, which is contained in 49 Tables. In 49 voices, or callings: which are the Natural Keys to open those, not 49 but 48 (for one is not to be opened) Gates of Understanding, whereby you shall have knowledge to move every Gate…

But you shall understand that these 19 Calls are the Calls, or entrances into the knowledge of the mystical Tables. Every Table containing one whole leaf, whereunto you need no other circumstances.

The 49 Calls, in fact, only number 18, but variations of an additional call produce 30 separate Keys or Aethyrs. As you can see by this reproduction of the 30 Aethyrs, they are all words 3-letters in length;

1. LIL 6. MAZ 11. ICH 16. LEA 21. ASP 26. DES

2. ARN 7. DEO 12. LOE 17. TAN 22. LIN 27. ZAA

3. ZOM 8. ZID 13. ZIM 18. ZEN 23. TOR 28. BAG

4. PAZ 9. ZIP 14. VTA 19. POP 24. NIA 29. RII

5. LAT 10. ZAX 15. OXO 20. CHR 25. VTI 30. TEX

Crowley detailed his experiences with these 30 Aethyrs in his book Liber 418; The Vision and the Voice. The similarity between the title of this book and the title of Helena Blavatski's The Voice of Silence is to be understood, and may have been a factor in Crowley choosing that work to critique to begin with. Crowley's relationship to the angels is characterised by an aggressive stance; Crowley routinely murders the angels if they do not give him what he wants. In light of Crowley's disregard for all things forbidden, we can assume that he was also hellbent on uncovering the 49th, or forbidden key. I believe that he has revealed it in the subtext of this drawing to be; LAM.

Interestingly, LAM in the Enochian language is pronounced 'el-ah-em' - or 'elohim', the name of God. So,  according to this logic, what Crowley has depicted in his drawing is not an alien, but God himself. Well, what did you expect him to look like?

Now that we have established that the 49th Key is LAM, and that this translates to the Hebrew name for God, Elohim, we can see why it is that this piece of information is afforded such a secretive (or forbidden) position in Dee's and Kelley's magical system. But while LAM may have been the message afforded to Crowley; via the angels, I feel that there could be a different one for me personally, at least.

The distinctly mathematical nature of the Enochian Keys may have had something to do with the fact that John Dee was distinguished mathematician of his time (as well as the Queen Elizabeth's chief cryptogorapher). However, the reference to there being 48 keys to the magic squares in the Liber Loagaeth does have several bona-fide mathematical comparisons. These come in the form of, but are not limited to;

• the 48 actions available to the Order 3 magic square GL(2,3)
• the 12 groups of 48 actions available to the magic square Order 4
• the octahedral symmetries of Order 48 for both the cube and octahedron
• the 480 (48 x 10) multiplications of the Octonion PSL (2,7)

The 48 actions of GL (2,3) I feel that it is interesting to note a number of highly esoteric symbols in this group of actions, including; the swasticah, the Star of David, the Masonic Double Square and Masonic artist Matthew Barney's Field Emblem. 

If, for example, we consider each of the 48 actions of GL (2,3) as being like a separate key (or Call), we can thereby construct a 49th key by combining all of the previous 48. Such an action would serve no real world function and could, in that sense, be described as forbidden. Such an action might take this form;

This crystalline image is like a stepping-stone on the way to more elaborate higher-dimensional analogues, such as the 24-Cell; a hypercube superimposed on a hyperoctahedron. Vincent Bridges, in his video Enochian Alphabet II - The Ancient Language of Angels, discusses the possible relationship between the 24-Cell and the Round Tablet of Nalvage (another of the Enochian Tables). I arrived at similar conclusions independently, and now believe that the exact shape must be a truncated 24-Cell, as this has 192 vertices, conforming to the 192 angels of Enochian lore. More research will be needed to prove whether I am right or not, in this regard.

Proponents of the extra-terrestrial view on the origins of LAM routinely refer to a magickal rite, known as the Babylon Working. This working is said to have taken up where Crowley's efforts left off, and was performed by Jack Parson's and Church of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard in 1946. If true, this would mean that Scientology is the largest organisation to have inherited the Thelema, and consequently Enochian principals and values, the world has ever seen. This means that Tom Cruise, as front man for the organisation, is in a uniquely prized position, as the OT VIII; the arch-Therion, the Octonion of the Thelama; to unlock a new realm of angelic information. At age 48 he is also in the pen-ultimate phase in his existence to do so. What will July 3rd 2011 bring for Cruise, as he proceeds towards the 49th Gate or year. I, for one, choose not to speculate.

Eiffel Tower 2012

Eiffel Tower; 2012

Not long ago I had a dream about the Eiffel Tower. In the dream some unseen Angelic Force was guiding me around the tower, educating me in its mysteries. She said that the year 2012 was encoded in the structure and then preceded to show me the names of the 72 scientists engraved upon its base. I asked if these names were somehow connected with sigil magic, the angel looked at me curiously; as if I were crazy. I have no idea why I asked this question, perhaps I merely dreamt it.

Recently it was discovered that the Eiffel Tower conducts stress through its steel structure in precisely the same way that trees transmit water through their branches. Due to the fractal nature of trees, and the newly discovered dentritic pattern of the Eiffel Tower, it may now be safe to conclude that the tower has some momentum towards that fabled date of 2012. The Eiffel Tower was constructed in March 1889 to celebrate the hundred year anniversary of the French Revolution and is, arguably, the most recognisable land mark in the modern world. For this reason you would expect that information about the tower’s overall design would be easily available and largely unambiguous. This is not so; in the case of the total number of steps in the Eiffel Tower. Depending on which source you drink from, the figure could either be 1665, 1671, 1710, 1789 or even 2,731 steps! That is a difference of 1,066 steps from the lowest to the highest estimate and a fair slog at that! The first estimate is from the Eiffel Tower’s Official Website, so you would expect that to be the most correct. No references for the other estimates can be found; with exception of one Birnbaum, whoever he is, who said that the number of steps was 1789.

I have found that the figure is most likely to have been 1710 based on scale measurements of the structure’s plans. This was indeed the number of steps Hitler was said to have climbed on his visit to the Eiffel Tower after invading France, the indignant Parisians had cut the elevator cables so he would have had to walk them all. However the staircases were revamped in the 1980s and, for that reason, might now only number 1665. After all the Official Eiffel Tower Website has no reason to lie about the number of steps to the summit. An interesting fact about the Eiffel Tower is that many of the figures related to its structure add up to and are therefore multiples of 9. Nine is obviously a very important number spiritually as well as numerologically. It denotes volume and the most high; a good description of the tower itself. Therefore only 1665 and 1710 could be legitimate answers for the question of how many steps are in the Eiffel Tower, both of these numbers are multiples of nine.

The height of the Eiffel Tower is 324, this is 9 by 36, four nines are 36. Multiplying the height of the tower by its four sides gives you 1296m. Multiply this by the number of years the tower was originally comissioned for; 20, back in 1887 and you get 25,920 or the consensual length of a Galatic Year and/or the circumference of the Earth in statutory miles. This is an interesting number and will be familiar to anyone who has studied the Precession of the Equinoxes or similarly related subjects, such as the Ancient Mayan Calendar.

This is fascinating because some people believe 2012 to be the end of the current Galactic Cycle and the beginning of the new one, starting with the Age of Aquarius. I concede that this is not a direct encoding of the year 2012 in the Paris monument, but I will press on. Given that there are so many different figures for the number of steps in the Eiffel Tower sceptics would say it is almost certain that you could find some combination of numbers that add up to 2012. And low and behold you can! According to whom you believe, 1665 could either be the total number of steps in the tower or the number of steps in the third level alone. If we add this figure with the concensus number of steps in the first level, 347, we get 2012.

1665 is by far the most interesting of all the figures related to the Eiffel Tower in regards to mankinds history and his manifest destiny as it is written in the stars. On this year, Giovanni Cassini calculated the rotational period of Mars and Jupiter. Three years later, in 1668, he calculated, to an accurate sufficiency, the orbital positions of the inner moons of Jupiter. If you have read my Time Code 101 article you will know that 1668 lies on the Phi point of the Time Code. By overlaying the diagram of the Eiffel Tower on a map of the moons of Jupiter you get this result.

Jupiter occupies the first strata of the Eiffel Tower, Io the 7th, Europa the 11th, then Ganymede at 17th strata and finally Callisto occupies the apex point. 1, 7, 11,17 is a very rythmic sequence and would seem to fit with the idea that both the Eiffel Tower and the orbital positions of planets are linked to the ordering system Phi. Similar results can be achieved with the inner planets of the solar system with Mars and Jupiter occupying significant placements within the structure.



The Eiffel Tower was built in Parc Champs de Mars, inaugurated on the 31st of March/Mars 1889 and was made of iron. Iron is the element associated with Mars, the God of War, and in keeping with this, the rectangular Parc Champs de Mars was initially used as a training ground for military manouevres by the Ecole Militaire. It is also interesting that the Eiffel Tower shares an acronym with that other ET, the Extra Terrestrial.



Luke Chapter 7, verse 11-17, 7:11-17, the repetitive cycle, describes an incident where Jesus resurrects a dead man in the city of Nain. This is interesting because the Eiffel Tower, with its associations with Masonic ritual, has long since been considered to serve some sort of Necromantic function related to the containment and/or defense against the inevitable overturning of Hell on Judgement Day, when the dead rise from their graves to walk the Earth. See hellgateguru.com

In an episode of 80s cartoon The Real Ghostbusters, the ghostbusters are called upon by the French Government to investigate a crack that has appeared in the Eiffel Tower’s newly discovered ghost containment field. Is it possible that the real purpose of some of these monuments is to wedge a door closed that should have opened a long time ago? If these measures fail will the dead rise up and walk the earth once more, just as Jesus resurrected the dead man in the city of Nain? Spookily, nain is also a French word meaning dwarf; a mythical creature closely associated with death, demons and underworld realms. French President Nicholas Sarkozy has been referred to as “le nain”, presumably because of his small stature and goblin-like features. His term in office will end in 2012, admissing his re-election, of course.


The Dwarf, Sarkozy.

In the film Ghostbusters Winston turns to Ray, as they are driving across the Brooklyn Bridge, and asks him if he believes in God. What follows is a conversation about Judgement Day when the dead rise from their graves. Ray quotes from the Book of Revelations Chapter 7, verse 11 through 15. It is a misquote and one probably completely fabricated to build the dramatic tension, but the significance is not lost. I believe that the Eiffel Tower may be emitting a harmonic frequency capable of jamming the entry of ghost and goblins from the nether-world.

Internet searches related to the Eiffel Tower turn up some interesting results. For instance, and as stated earlier, scientific researchers have discovered that the Tower is structurally very similar to a tree. Trees are closely related to fractile based geometry and the structural ordering of phi. As I discussed earlier in Time Code 101 these two principles are unquestionably linked to time and the Mayan date of 2012. I have made a mock up graphic to better help you to visualise the connection between fractal geometry and the architecture of the Eiffel Tower.



I have also included a mock up of how the Eiffel Tower compares with the Time Wave Zero, for those of you interested in Terrence McKenna and his theories.



As you can see significant drops in the waveform coincide with noteworthy features in the tower.



More interestingly perhaps, is how the tower matches up with the last spike of the Time Wave. As you can see in the above diagram the angle of curvature between the tower and the declining part of the wave are correlative. The region at the bottom right hand corner in which the wave dissipates is some 168 metres from the central point of the tower. Multiply this by the original height of the tower and devide by 2; for the area of the triangle, gives a rough estimate of 25,964ms, which is very close to the Mayan Galactic year.
