Its author, Aleister Crowley, described it as the the Word of the Aeon, which signifieth The Great Work accomplished. 1 This is in reference to his belief that the writing of Liber Legis heralded a new Aeon for mankind that was ruled by the god Ra-Hoor-Khuit a form of Horus. Abrahadabra is, therefore, the magical formula of this new age. It is not to be confused with the Word of the Law of the Aeon, which is Thelema, meaning Will. Contents 1 Description 2 Mystical interpretations 2.1 Gematria 2.2 Other interpretations 3 Quotes from Liber Legis 4 Notes 5 References 6 External links Description Crowley replaced the C in Abracadabra with an H. He explains in his essay Gematria that he discovered this spelling of the word by qabalistic methods. The author appears to say that this happened before his January 1901 meeting with Oscar Eckenstein, one of his teachers. At this meeting, Eckenstein ordered him to put aside magick for the moment and practice mation or concentration.2 In Gematria, Crowley says he took great interest in Abrahadabra and its qabalistic number 418 at the time when someone ordered him to abandon the study of magic and the Qabalah. The Word Abrahadabra appears repeatedly in the 1904 invocation of Horus that preceded the writing of Liber Legis and led to the founding of Thelema.3 It also appears in a May 1901 diary that Crowley published in The Equinox.4 The essay Gematria gives Hindu, Christian, and Unsectarian versions of the problem that Crowley intended this magick word to answer. He also gives a qabalistic equivalent for each phrasing, and a brief symbolic answer for each. The unsectarian version reads, I am the finite square; I wish to be one with the infinite circle. Its equivalent refers to the Cross of Extension and the infinite Rose. Crowley's numerological explanation of ABRAHADABRA focuses mainly on this last formulation and the answer to it. Abrahadabra is also referred to as the Word of Double Power. More specifically, it represents the uniting of the Microcosm with the Macrocosm-represented by the pentagram and the hexagram, the rose and the cross, the circle and the square, the 5 and the 6, etc.-also called the attainment of the Knowledge and Conversation of one's Holy Guardian Angel. In Commentaries 1996, Crowley says that the word is a symbol of the establishment of the pillar or phallus of the Macrocosm...in the void of the Microcosm. Mystical interpretations Gematria As with most things found in the mystical works of Aleister Crowley, the word Abrahadabra can be examined using the qabalistic method of gematria, which is a form of numerology, whereby correspondences are made based on numerical values. ABRAHADABRA = 418 ABRAHADABRA has 11 letters ABRAHADABRA = 1+2+2+1+5+1+4+1+2+2+1 = 22 The five letters in the word are: A, the Crown; B, the Wand; D, the Cup; H, the Sword; R, the Rosy Cross; and refer further to Amoun the Father, Thoth His messenger, and Isis, Horus, Osiris, the divine-human triad. Also 418 = ATh IAV, the Essence of IAO 418= BVLShKIN, or Boleskine 418= RA HVVR, or Ra Hoor 418= ∑13-31 Abrahadabra is from Abrasax, Father Sun, which = 365 5 418 = 22 x 19 Manifestation Other interpretations In Aramaic this word roughly translates into I will create as I speak. Had is the keyword of Abrahadabra. Had is another name for Hadit, the second Speaker in Liber Legis. ABRAHADABRA is The key of the rituals because it expresses the Magical Formulae of uniting various complementary ideas; especially the Five of the Microcosm with the Six of the Macrocosm. 1 Abrahadabra is the glyph of the blending of the 5 and the 6, the Rose and the Cross. 2 Quotes from Liber Legis Abrahadabra; the reward of Ra Hoor Khut. AL III:1 This book shall be translated into all tongues: but always with the original in the writing of the Beast; for in the chance shape of the letters and their position to one another: in these are mysteries that no Beast shall divine. Let him not seek to try: but one cometh after him, whence I say not, who shall discover the Key of it all. Then this line drawn is a key: then this circle squared in its failure is a key also. And Abrahadabra. It shall be his child that strangely. Let him not seek after this; for thereby alone can he fall from it. AL III:47 The ending of the words is the Word Abrahadabra.
