Axziarg or Axxiarg, 11th of 91 Parts, 2nd of PAZ. Zodiacal King: 
Lavavoth. Ministers: 3000. Mundane association: Parsadal (capital of 
ancient Persia). 
Thursday, September 29, 1994  approx 2:00 pm.
Invoked Axziarg according to the revised procedure.
My viewpoint rotated to above the circle, and the center of the circle 
became transparent. Moving through it, the first thing I saw was a man 
on horseback riding very fast. There was no landscape around this 
figure. He wore leather clothes and carried a large pouch on a strap 
across his shoulder.
My viewpoint retreated and a landscape formed. He was riding southwest 
over a high plain, with a line of mountains in the distance to the 
north. The viewpoint retreated further and I could see that he 
followed a road leading from just southwest of the Aral Sea to a point 
somewhat to the north and east of the Persian Gulf. Descending again 
at this endpoint, there was a city whose central portion was made of 
large stone palaces and public buildings, surrounded by many other 
quarters of buildings made of rammed earth or mud. Roads radiated out 
from the city in all directions. I happened to notice that over one of 
the gates to the central city, there was carved a figure like the 
winged disk, save that the central disk contain some complex design 
with a motif of rays - - possibly a stylized wheel? 
Now it seemed that the great Arrow of the previous two visions was 
descending from the sky over this city. Slowly but not ponderously it 
descended. As it came close to the ground a great wheel of magickal 
force seemed to begin rotating in some space coincident with the city. 
It rotated in several dimensions at once -- "a wheel turning upon 
itself".  The closer the arrow came, the faster that wheel turned. The 
arrow touched the ground, and dissolved into it; at the same time the 
outer portion of the wheel's rim exploded into a million smaller 
arrows of many colors, all of which flashed outwards over the face of 
the earth. 
I could not see exactly where they landed, but suddenly many other 
smaller wheels appeared, spread over an area that reached to the 
Mediterranean in the west and into India in the east. All these wheels 
were of different sizes and turned in different directions and in 
different planes.
A voice spoke: "In the end of its journey, the power of the Arrow 
becomes the power of the Executive, combining authority with 
communication to create coordination among disparate parts. This is 
not the power of a King, for the King draws all to himself and seeks 
to make it one under his command. The executive's power is the power 
of Principle, or of Policy, the ability to see the design whole, and 
to show to each part the place in that design to which its nature fits 
it. Thus each part remains independent in most of its activities, but 
works those activities under the design.
"And who is to say whether the design or the part's nature dominates? 
For where greater design and individual nature are fitted, there is no 
conflict. The lesser acts according to its nature, and the design is 
fulfilled. 
"Thus is the power of the Will of God, the father-aspect, brought into 
the lower worlds. Those who seek to impose some design on men, by Law 
or by Force, are not at one with that Will; and thus do their schemes 
go awry, in the end. For the Will is change, and the seeking of change 
for the growth of Art; it never ceases to move and evolve. But the 
rules of Law and Force seek only stasis, a prevention of change, an 
eternal repetition of what has been already accomplished. 
"There is no law in the Will of God, save only this: Thou shalt change 
as your nature dictates; thou shalt evolve, will ye or not. And if you 
change beyond the bounds of Law, what of it? Law touches only was has 
been; it does not see what is truly new, but always lags behind. Leave 
behind the definitions that Law places on reality; create new 
definitions according to your nature and the Will. Law shall not see 
them until they too, in their time, become established."
(The sense of this paragraph is that one circumvents the restrictions 
of established reality by creating a new reality in which its 
restrictions are irrelevant.) 
"O man, you who hears these words, so too must thou do. For the work 
of the divine is a creative work; one cannot rely on the thoughts of 
the past to create the future. The following of teaching is for those 
on the Path [of initiation], those who do not yet know the will of God 
direct. This is right and proper, for the Path is a traveling in 
blindness; a groping through concealing thickets wherein the goal 
cannot be seen. Those who tread it have no knowledge of what is to 
come to them or of what they seek, and therefor have no recourse but 
to seek out the signposts and markers of those who went before them.

"But you have stepped out of the thicket into the limitless fields of 
the divine, wherein every direction is good, and every step opens up 
an infinite number of new directions, all of them good. Freedom is 
yours, the full freedom that the gods have among themselves. But what 
shall you do with it? Shall you stand in one place, frozen by the 
multitude of choices open to you? No. Move you must, and move you 
shall.
"No guides are there to direct your course, no authorities to trammel 
your will or limit your choices. Creation is the only rule here; Art 
the only goal, Change the only means. You must throw off all the 
limits and rules of the past, even those of the divine Mother. She is 
not the creative power, but the stuff of creation. Therefor those who 
are at one with her are not creators; they only wait. [That is, the 
state of stillness characterizing the Masters of the Temple is not a 
creative state. See Crowley.] To create you must break that oneness 
again, and become a star in her firmament, a power that makes her 
substance the material of your Art.
"Like every creator, you must speak the One Word: Amgedpha!
"Take your place in the company of stars. Nine years ago were you 
lifted into the arms of the Mother, and presented to the gods. Nine 
years ago were you held up as you took your first steps within that 
world. For nine moons of moons have you worked there, and proven that 
you could stand there unassisted. For nine years have you been the One 
who is None; now you must become the None who is One. 
"Take your place. And how shall you do this? Thou shalt will it, and 
it shall be so."
"We are done."
Seer's comments:
This is the last of three Parts in sequence associated with 
Sagittarius. Following the interpretation suggested in earlier Parts, 
it represents the lowest aspect of that Path, which connects Chokmah 
with Chesed in Achad's Tree of Life. The Word of Chokmah in descending 
upon Chesed becomes transformed into Principle.
The capital of the Persian Empire is fitting for this part, since the 
governance of that empire had much in common with the conditions 
described here. The empire was held together by a large system of post 
roads, and a sophisticated messenger service similar to the American 
Pony Express. The rider who opens the vision is a symbol of both 
Saggitarius and this link of empire.
The capital city of the empire is seen as the hub of a Jupiterian 
wheel, and then as a different sort of wheel, a chakra. Under the 
stimulation of the incoming divine will from Chokmah, this wheel first 
becomes energized and then radiant. Its radiation stimulates the 
activity of other chakras within the "body" of the empire. Each of 
these lesser chakras is a  Persian satrapy, which takes the power of 
the central wheel and transforms it according to its own nature. This 
is in keeping with the Persian practice: a collection of guiding 
principles, quasi-religious in nature, were dictated from the capital, 
but the policy was generally adapted to the customs and needs of the 
regions and their special ethnic groups. 
This blending of disparate regions under a single principle is a social 
equivalent of the synthetic aspect of Sagittarius. The mental 
equivalent is the abstraction of meaning from different ideas or 
experiences and unifying them in a meta-idea, something which connects 
to them, but exists on a higher level than the things it connects. In 
magickal work, this aspect is seen in the way in which many seemingly 
unconnected things, such as colors, divine names, geometric symbols, 
Tarot images, etc., become unified into the experience of a particular 
"pure" magickal power.
The presentation next segues into something which is not strictly 
connected with the nature of the Part. It seems to be a contrast 
between Chokmah and Chesed on one hand, and Binah and Geburah on the 
other. The nature of the Father or Will aspect is set against that of 
the Mother; the nature of one is to change, the nature of the other is 
to support and maintain. 
The remainder of the vision gets personal. There was a great deal 
happening that was not recorded, because it was non-verbal and non- 
image-like; it will take time to absorb before it can be translated 
into words.

The "One Word", Amgedpha, is an Enochian word meaning "I begin anew." 
The English of this word was first used to me by the Enochian angels 
in a series of twelve short meditations called The Zodiacal Round. 
These meditations deal with the zodiac as the steps in the divine 
creative process. The first verse, attributed to the name ORO and the 
sign Pisces, reads:
        And God said: "The time has come to create 
        again. Let the old forms be washed away. I begin 
        anew."
Shortly after, I was converting Laycock's Enochian dictionary into a 
database, and discovered the Enochian word. I have no idea of the 
context in which it was given to Dee.
The event mentioned in the following paragraph occurred during the 
series of explorations recounted in _Touring the Earth Tablet_ and 
_The Book of the Seniors_, and represented my first halting entry into 
the Supernal triad. Neither then nor now did I consider that event to 
be an initiation into the Binah grade; by my own standard, that 
initiation was accomplished less than two years ago. 
The lunar symbolism also connects to events of that time. One evening 
I was told, out of the blue, that some important but unspecified event 
would take place in a certain number of lunar months, and that in the 
interim I would learn to "stand on my own" in the Supernals. My memory 
says that I never did "hear" the exact number of months involved. But 
counting the lunar months from the end of the Earth Tablet working to 
now, it is about six months less than nine lunar years, or about 111 
lunar months. Since 111 is the value of ALP, Aleph, The Fool, the last 
sentence of this paragraph serves as a confirmation of this 
calculation, given before I did it. 
The "One who is None" refers to the relationship between the finite 
solar self and the transcendental being of Binah, whose nature is Not. 
This relationship occupied most of my attention during the period 
mentioned. The "None who is One" refers to the transition from Binah 
into Chokmah. Having become Nemo or no-one, dissolving himself into 
the no-thing-ness of the Mother, the Master of the Temple must now 
reformulate himself as a star, a creative point of power in Chokmah. 
... PARANOID - One who is truly in touch with reality.
