Foreword
For obvious reasons, we ought not to share our practical exeatic
explorations, herein these printed and posted text. At least, were they
truly practical and exeatic explorations, public announcement would
either incriminate, or associate one, in rather inconvenient and
detrimental ways. Thus, it should be understood that herein, this
publicly printed and posted word, Nexion 913 takes a strictly apologetic
approach to the philosophical, intellectual, and numinous conquest, that
is our ethos, and that ethos of The Temple of The Black Light, and The
Order of Nine Angles.
We seek to analyze and to dissect, to demonstrate the logic and
reason therefor, thus documenting and explaining our personal and
kollective cause, its necessity, as well as our personal similarities and
differences. One associate recently referred to 913, and our
publications, as being the ONA's Socrates, and while, certainly, we have
a long way to go in order to appropriate such a comparison, the
flattering sentiment accurately denotes our approach to these
publications, insofar as they must currently be presented, due to those
aforementioned obvious reasons.
Thus we advocate the understanding itself, rather than the direct
subject matter, the essence itself, rather than the form, the ethos itself,
2
rather than the mythos, and indeed the acausal, rather than the rite. If
our observations and explanations inspire the reader, it is that inspired
readers responsibility to determine on their own, the subject, the form,
the mythos (if any), and the means, appropriate to their personal work,
as have Nexion 913.
To this end, 913 has no great history or heritage other than that our
our individual drones. It is our intention to build that kollective family
history, to expand our nexion, to organize and govern ourselves
according to our own personal code of honor, upon our own land, to
defend ourselves by way of our own noble warriors, because we are not
the property of any government or corporation, because we are not
slaves, and neither do we consent to the destruction of our peoples or
our Homeworld. We seek to build new lives and new civilizations, to
return to an Earth based lifestyle, establishing our self respect and
shared numinous values. We seek to employ technology in a Ecofriendly manner, and in so far as is possible, repair the Earth before we
leave the nest.
"Tribe" is a contested term due to its roots in colonialism. The
word has no shared referent, whether in political form, kinship relations
or shared culture. Some argue that it conveys a negative connotation of
a timeless unchanging past. To avoid these implications, some have
chosen to use the terms "ethnic group", or nation instead.
This is not an issue for 913, as this very text serves the purpose of
explaining our exact used of the term. It is not our goal to seek a shared
political, cultural, or genetic, referent, but to define and initiate one of
our own. The term 'tribe' carrying a negative connotation pertaining to a
'timeless unchanging past' within mundane paradigms is a nonissue for
us, as our specific use of the term directly implies, instead, a focusing
on the future. Others are free to utilize another term if they see fit,
however, as 913 is multi-ethnic and anti-national, it makes more sense
for us to specify a derivative of the existing term.
Considerable debate takes place over how best to characterize
tribes. This partly stems from perceived differences between pre-state
tribes and contemporary tribes; some reflects more general controversy
over cultural evolution and colonialism.
The issue here, is perhaps, that the debate taking place does not
involve those the debate concerns. The only difference between prestate tribes and this Magian abstraction 'contemporary tribes' is the
direct interference of that Western invasion force of Homo Hubris, and
their relentless agenda to invade, infect, enslave, rape and destroy, those
Earth peoples who will not conform to their capitalist system. Not one
of these tribes have ever labeled themselves either 'pre-state' tribes or
'contemporary' tribes. The controversy in question pertains to the
Western world interfering with the natural evolution of tribal peoples,
and invading the lands and resources of those defenseless tribal people
who lack adequate technological and strategic prowess so as to defend
themselves.
Nexion 913 view ourselves in quite the same circumstance as these
so called pre-state and contemporary tribes, only within a post-state,
and post-colonialism, context. We who are born within the confines of a
nation state, are without lands or resources, and we have never
possessed, nor can we ever possess, any lands or resources, because any
attempt to become independent of the nation state, and its impersonal
law, is labeled an act of mutiny and terrorism, punishable by
imprisonment and death. From time of our birth we have been branded
the property of the nation state, and used as though we are a resource to
be traded and consumed, rather than a sentient people in possession of
our own cultural and spiritual determination. The purpose of our
kollective is to become independent of the state, collecting and
developing the cultural and technological resources to manifest a proper
offensive and defensive position against the nation states relentless
assault on our freedom and dignity. Such is the motivation of the poststate techno-tribal individual and kollective.
Anthropologist Elman Service presented a system of classification
for societies in all human cultures based on the evolution of social
inequality and the role of the state. This system of classification
contains four categories:
6
Nexion 913 builds upon the Elman Service system, thus including
those post-state peoples, in a fifth tier titled Post-State TechnoTribalism encompassing those Nexion, Temples, and Covens, within
our respective kollectives.
1. Hunter-gatherer bands, which are generally egalitarian.
2. Tribal societies in which there are some limited instances of
social rank and prestige.
3. Stratified tribal societies led by chieftains (see Chiefdom).
4. Civilizations, with complex social hierarchies and organized,
institutional governments.
5. Post-State Techno-Tribal Kollectives: Those indigenous peoples
who have been colonized by the Western world, and those
kollectives originating within the Western world, who seek to
become free from, and the technological and political equals of,
Western nation states, and return to, and manifest new, Earth
based lifestyles, challenging and if possible defeating, the
unnatural abstractions of, and impersonal law of, the Western
Nation States.

The Blinding Slumber
Years: 0 6
Rank: The Spark Bound In Clay
Duties: During the first and the last stages of life, one has no other
obligations than preparation and observation. These are those stages
whereas one is bound to, or unbound from, the causal cosmos, and
therefore many years of adjustment and effort may be required. From
birth into the flesh, unto that state of mind whereas serious study of the
cosmic prison can be accomplished, Nexion 913 affords approximately
six years.

The Forge
Years: 6 16
Rank Progresses From: The Spark Bound in Clay To: The Iron In
The Forge
Duties: Ones time within the Forge is know as ones 'Ascension to
Inclusion'. At the age of six, one leaves their initial caretakers and goes
to live with with the others of the tribe who are between the ages of six
and sixteen. The Smith's and the Forge Masters, are those of the tribe
between the ages of fifty and sixty, who are honor bound to educate and
train those navigating the Ascension to Inclusion, (they are themselves
within the 'Ascension to Immolation').
Half of ones time in the Forge, from the age of six to the age of
eleven, is spent studying basic Amagian education, athletics and
wilderness training, while the other half, from the age of eleven to the
age of sixteen, is spent under evaluation for qualification for training,
and undergoing said training, pertaining to specified instruction in
technological, strategical, philosophical, and political fields, or
combinations of them.
Regardless of any specialized training and education one qualifies
for, starting at age eleven there are physical and intellectual
requirements to be met, including weight training, hand to hand combat,
weapons training, healthy living and diet, and an understanding of
Nexion 913 Tribal Kustoms and history, which studies and trials
increase in difficulty with the passing of each year, and the ultimate
goal of which is to pass ones 'Trial of Inclusion' at the approximate age
of sixteen.
Tome: The Iron Tome: This Tome is, like ones training, divided in
to two parts. (1) The first half of ones Iron Tome is written by the

The Dayside
Years: 16 33
Rank Progresses From: The Iron In The Forge To: The Sword In
Sunlight
Duties: To serve, obey, and defend our tribe, our people, and our
Kustoms, is an honor above all others. It is the means of achieving our
individual and Kollective goals, it is the means of achieving our
individual and Kollective spiritual goals, and it is our means of
defeating the Magian infrastructure, of transcending mundane law, and
transcending the human and cosmic condition. Violating our personal
Law is very different from violating mundane law. When mundane laws
are violated, there are punishments and sentences. When our personal
Laws are violated, so too are our goals, our Kustom, our Kollective, and
our aeonic agendas, diminished, hindered, and dishonored. Mundane
law enforcement pertains to seeking power in numbers rather than
honorable personal ability. Mundane law is handing out tickets based
upon impersonal law, and assaulting human dignity with imprisonment
according to corrupt courts, and the impersonal rulings of authorities
whose honor is easily bribed or blackmailed.
Nexion 913 Kustoms have no term for 'officer' because the implied
duty to enforce and defend our personal Law is at the very core of
everyone's purpose, it is at the core of our childhood training, because
we do not entertain those Magian notions of multiple statuses within
our people. Everyone is born into basic training, and everyone who is a
Man or Woman is an Officer; it goes without saying. We are not divided
by Magian conventions of class or rank. Everyone between the
approximate ages of sixteen and thirty three are honor bound to carry
out our Law by serving within our Kourt. No one can charge, nor be
charged, by strangers, because we have no strangers whatsoever. The
Warrior dedicates their life to the service of our Kourt, and serves in
17
18
The Long Day: In the event that one lacks, or does not desire,
spiritual, intellectual, and political capacities, one may be granted the
title of 'The Long Day', which implies that their service to the Kourt
will continue as is, according to Dayside standards, and they will not
pursue the duties or respects of The Nightside nor The Smith. These
individuals, having achieved their potentials, remain within honorable
standing according to our Kustom, and may, at any time, commit
themselves to The Unbound Awakening.

The Nightside The Arbitrator
Years: 33 50
Rank Progresses From: The Sword In Sunlight To: The Wand In
Moonlight (Basic Promotion)
Rank Progresses To: The Sword and The Wand (Advanced
Promotion)
Duties: The Nightside is very much like the Dayside insofar as
duties are concerned. One is to serve and defend 913 Kustom by way of
serving our Kourt, however, with much a greater emphasis on
command, instruction, and organization of the Tribe. One not only
carries out their orders, but actively takes part in shaping and
conducting the Kourt. There comes with age and experience a certain
understanding of the acausal and of chaos, which at this point in ones
service and study, one is expected to have harnessed and developed a
capacity of empathy for, to a degree that it is visible and readily
presenced within their personal conduct, their service, their rulings, and
their literature. At this point in ones life they are expected to be giving
as many orders as they are obeying. They are also expected to be
preparing for their future in terms of which skills which they will teach
if and when they become a Smith, and they are expected to take on very
dedicated roles in terms of Nexion 913s public literature and activism,

The Smith The Forge Master
Years: 50 60
Rank Progresses From: The Wand In Moonlight
To: The Hammer in Smoke
(Basic Promotion)
Position: Smith
Rank Progresses To: The Wand And The Hammer
(Advanced Promotion)
Position: Forge Master
Rank Progresses To: The Sword, The Wand, And The Hammer,
(Promotion To Adept Status)
Position: Arbitrator
Duties: To work the Forge is to educate the tribes young, and to
prepare for ones own 'Ascension to Immolation'. Such is the honor and
duty of those between the approximate ages of fifty to sixty years. One
who has completed their duties within the Kourt will move on to serve
within the Forge, spending their days teaching and training those
navigating the Ascension to Inclusion, and their title is Smith. A Smith
will instruct all of those between the ages of six and eleven, pertaining
to basic Amagian education, athletics and wilderness training.
Some few may be judged by a council of existing Arbitrators, to
possess those skills and insights appropriate for an advanced position of
Forge Master, which is to say that the individual in question will be
afforded the responsibilities of the Smith, while retaining their standing
and responsibilities withing our Kourt. Those within the 'Ascension to
Inclusion' are to refer to them as Forge Master (those who operate
within the Kourt and the Forge). It is the duty of the Forge Master to
govern and organize the Forge, and determine the skills and abilities of
21
the available Smiths, and assign those able to instruct those between the
ages of eleven and sixteen who qualify for specified training in
technological, strategical, philosophical, and political fields, or
combinations of them. They also maintain thorough records of the
Forge activities and document them on behalf of our Kourt. Beyond
those who qualify for special training, starting at age eleven there are
physical and intellectual requirements to be met whereas the Forge
Master is responsible for seeing to weight training, hand to hand
combat, weapons training, healthy living and diet, and an understanding
of Nexion 913 Tribal Customs and history.
The Forge Master and his or her Smiths conduct those training's,
studies and trials, whose ultimate goal is to prepare the children for
their final 'Trial of Inclusion', however, only an Arbitrator (an Adept)
may actually conduct the 'Trial of Inclusion', and only they may rule
that the Rite was, or was not, completed. Finally, all Smiths who
instruct those within the Forge, and are responsible for the keeping of
The Prisoners Tomes, and the Iron Tomes, of those children they train.
Those Smiths are also responsible for delivering those completed
Tomes to a Forge Master, who deliver them to an Arbitrator for Kourt
documentation and eventual delivery unto those individuals having
completed the 'Rite of Inclusion'.
Tome: The Teachers Tome: This tome is a record of ones duties
within the Forge, either in the context of a Smith, Forge Master, or
Arbitrator. This Tome is constructed by ones own service, and the third
Tome written by ones own hand. One may record anything they like,
according to ones own taste, however, one is required to record their
duties, their command structure, their assignments and the details
thereof, and because one is now writing literature for public
distribution, those writings are themselves to be included within ones
Teachers Tome. Those who are Forge Masters and Arbitrators will issue
many formal notices, and it is their responsibility to make certain the
notices be compiled within the subordinates respective Tome, as well as
their own Teachers Tome, and a response is to be recorded accounting

The Unbound Awakening
Years: 60 66
Rank Progresses To: The Shattered Clay (Mandatory)
Duties: During the first and last stages of life, one has no other
obligations than preparation and observation. These are those stages
whereas one enters into, and exits from, the cosmic binding, and
therefore many years of adjustment and effort may be required to
accomplish the relevant transition. From the completion of ones
Teachers Tome (at the approximate age of 60), unto ones self
immolation, our tribe affords approximately six years. Those with the
greatest honor (Adepts are expected to) move directly to their
Unbinding ceremony, followed by death in battle.
Conclusion: The Unbound Awakening is concluded when one has
committed their fifth Tome to Nexion 913s Mortaklavis (our Kourts
historical record of honorable Amagian livelihoods), and prepared
themselves to die honorably by the means of their choice, be it by their
own hand, or that of a preferred loved one. An Unbinding ceremony is
conducted which involves a night of praise and honoring of the deeds of
that individual, whereas song is written, and one offers their Divine

The Magian Aeon
Archetype: The Magician: The mind with all of its attunements,
and all of its pathways, is the domain of the Magician. He or she
discovers for correlation between ideas and reality, and embodies the
desire, as well as the energy, to manifest an idea in reality. Ideas are
planned, and nurtured, as a child in the womb, studied and tended, cared
for with stratagem, preparation, and loved, carefully developed, and
birthed. The Magician is the archetype of the active, masculine
principle - the ultimate achiever. He symbolizes the power to tap
universal forces and use them for creative purposes. He knows what he
intends to do and why. He doesn't hesitate because he understands his
situation exactly. The Magician can focus with single-minded
determination. Mercury: Socialization, communication, and the giving
and receiving of information.
Agenda: In this, our current 'modern day', which is the final season
of this Magian Aeon, we sinister adepts create, produce, and inspire, a
series of tribal codes and customs, and we collaborate, and advocate our
unique systems of conscious, numinous, personal, and Kollective
26
2
The Exeatic Aeon
Archetype: The Hierophant: represents churches, schools, clubs,
teams, companies, and societies, as his realm is the structured group
with assigned roles. Such environments emphasize belief systems facts, rules, procedures, and ritual. Members are rewarded for following
conventions. They develop a group identity. The Hierophant often
27
3
The Anomos Aeon
Archetype: The Chariot: represents military, and the strengths
associated with combat - discipline, grit, determination and
assertiveness, as well as the positive aspects of the ego. It knows what it
wants and how to get it. The Chariot represents hard control, which is
not brutal, but firm, direct, and honorable. The Chariot is backed by a
strong will, with great confidence and self-control, ever striving for
victory.
Agenda: In self defense, the United Nexional Front will fight for its
very existence in a long and terrible battle against the Magians
collective Technological Nomos, which is to say, the combined power
of all Earth governments, their armies, and their technology. Initially
this war, and this time, will be what the mundanes will refer to as World
War Three (WWIII), however, we will refer to this time as the Third
Zionist War, the final battle between the unnatural Magian abstraction,
and the evolution, well-being, and freedom of mankind. Our Sinister
Adepts, our tribes, and our customs, will be labeled as terrorist and
criminals, and thus pursued by every Nation State on the planet. The
United Nexional Front will 'Appropriate our Exemption' from Earth
conventions, declare our own law, and in turn employ our own Exeatic
Sciences, that is to say, confront and combat the agents and
infrastructure of the Magian, with our Kollective strength and
resources, and thereby spread our own technological, spiritual and
Kultural ethos, both suffering great losses and gaining grate allies. A
primary element allowing the United Nexional Front to emerge
victorious, will be our use of Homo Hubris, which will panic, and riot,
dealing great damage to the Magian infrastructure, which will fall quite
easily without its millions and millions of slaves. All governments and
29

The Amagian Aeon
Archetype: Justice: has the scales of equality and impartial
judgment in one hand, and the sword of decision in the other. Lady
Justice represents the understanding that life is ultimately fair and just,
even though the vagaries of day to day life tend to make us doubt this
fact. Justice reminds us that there is divine balance in the action of
karma - cause and effect, and equal divinity in the akarmic unbinding.
She carries the tone of the courtroom, and legal matters of all kinds, but
is not restricted to them. The courts are where judgments are made and
30
evolution of, and the sociopolitical evolution of, ourselves, and the
remaining populations of Homo Hubris, towards greater biological
forms, greater sentient states of consciousness, and the setting of our
Kollective intent upon the notion of space travel, and the knowings
possibly attained thereby. Such will also conclude the Dayside of the
Aeonic Causalcline, which is to say that the causal focus is thus
unbound and freed from Magian influence, allowing for the unhindered
evolution of acausal capacities, which will from this point forward be
the primary focus, in the form of greater and greater biological, and
technological, nexional permutations.
~ Three Nightside Aeons (Acausal Focus) ~
5
The Unbound Aeon
Archetype: Judgment: when the faithful are brought to heaven, but
what about those who are not saved? Have they been judged and found
wanting? For their sins, will they be denied the presence of God? (For
their mundanity they will be denied the ability to become God).
Judgment comes in two forms. The hurtful kind says, "What you did is
wrong, and you are bad, and worthless, for having done it." This type of
judgment separates and leaves no room for redemption (evolution). It is
possible to judge without condemning. We assess the matter, weigh all
sides, and try to discern the truth. We recognize the need to choose and
hope for the courage to do so wisely - but without blame. Judgments are
necessary, as sometimes you must decide. At such moments, it is best to
consider the matter carefully and then commit yourself without censure.
If you are being judged yourself, learn from the process. Take what is of
value, correct what needs correcting, but never lose sight of your worth,
and those feelings that come with salvation and absolution. When the
angel calls, you are reborn - cleansed of all guilts and burdens. (When
your enemies are destroyed, you are freed. The past and its mistakes are
behind you, and you are ready to begin anew. You may even feel a
32
calling - a personal conviction of what you are meant to do. If you are
in a low period, in need of hope and absolution, Judgement can show
you that renewal is at hand.
Agenda: The official establishment of the New Order, That time
after the final Zionist War, when Sinister Adepts begin to instate that
'abstract form' and 'paradigm' by which Homo Hubris is calmed and
claimed as our primary resource, and thereby assigned to harvesting the
available resources on Ahrte, so as to produce that lasting infrastructure
upon which individual cities and communities will be established,
affirming the fruition our Sinister Return, our honorable and numinous
livelihood, and the continued 'conscious' spiritual and technological
evolution. This Fireborn institutions infrastructure and influence will
expedite a continual and exponential increase in the conscious,
evolution, and acausal presencing, thus marking the initiation of the
Nightside of the Aeonic Causalcline.
Conclusion: The Unbound Aeon will be concluded when Judgment
gives way to The Two of Wands, when a permanent and sustainable
New Order infrastructure has been established, and cities and
communities are thriving and prosperous to a degree that our Sinister
Return, our Honorable Livelihood, our Noble Dignity, and our
Numinous Kulture is beyond question, and beyond being challenged,
and when all future conquest lie beyond Ahrte.
6
The Galactic Aeon
Archetype: The Two of Wands: glorifies individual courage and
greatness. This card taps the same energy as the Magician, but with one
important difference. The Magician represents the archetype of power the impersonal energy of creativity and strength. The Two of Wands
stands for that power brought down to Earth and made personal.
Personal power is an invigorating force that fills you up and lends you
33
7
The Acosmic Aeon
Archetype: Death: A powerful energy indeed. Who can look at the
dark, skeletal figure and not feel uneasy? Here we see the face of our
deepest fear - our greatest unknown. We recoil from Death because we
think of it as annihilation. Death is not a permanent end, but a transition
into a new state. Life is eternal in its essence, if not in its form. To grow,
to move, to live - we must "die" to the old to give birth to the new. This
rarely has anything to do with physical death. Death is not something
that happens once to our bodies. It happens continually, at many levels
and not just in the physical. Each moment we die to the present so the
future can unfold. Death often represents an important ending that will
initiate great change. It signals the end of an era; a moment when a door
is closing. At such times, there may be sadness and reluctance, but also
35
36
39
our own standard, with no desire to grow old and weak, and with no
desire to die needlessly over stupid mundanes and their stupid, and
meaningless, accusations. 913 is not concerned with what the mundane
think or say. We are concerned with producing philosophy, politic, and
nexional tribes, so as to destroy the Magian infrastructure.
Our duty as individuals who live by the Code of Sinister
Honour is to settle our non-serious disputes, among
ourselves, by having a man or woman from among us (a
brother or sister who is highly esteemed because of their
sinister deeds), arbitrate and decide the matter for us, and
to accept without question, and to abide by, their decision,
because of the respect we have accorded them as arbitrator.
Nexion 913 does indeed advocate the use of arbitrators whose
ruling is final, however, that is not to say that our people must obey
them without question. The ruling may not be questioned, however,
everyone within 913 cast a vote as to who is granted what station, who
receives promotion, and who is able to rule as arbitrator. We would alter
this statement to say because of the rank we have granted the
arbitrator rather than because of the respect we have for them, but
otherwise, this statement is agreeable.
Our duty as sinister individuals who live by the Code of
Sinister Honour is to always keep our word to our own
kind, once we have given our word on our sinister honour,
for to break ones word among our own kind is a cowardly,
a mundane, act.
Agreed. However, 913 does wish that when we said our kind we
were addressing the whole Kollective. As for now, only a few therein
have earned that respect.
43
45
Lexiklavis
A Glossary of Terms
This glossary of terms is an ever growing lexicon, which 913 refers
to as Lexiklavis. It is composed of all those terms coined by Nexion 913
(marked as thus*), and those which we have adopted from ONA,
TOTBL, and other traditions we respect elements of. One should note
that Nexion 913 may not use certain terms as do others, thus we provide
the pre-assimilation definition, and then our specific adaptation
thereafter. If we have adopted a term, without altering it, it will be
presented as we discovered it, or it will be specified to be a particular
organizations use thereof. Ultimately, it is for our readers to decide how
to interpret those terms we have adopted from other traditions. We only
have valid authority pertaining to our own terminology, and those terms
which we have personally coined.
Abyss
Exoterically, the Abyss represents the region where the causal gives
way to, or merges into, the acausal, and thus where the causal is
"transcended", gone beyond, or passed, and where one enters the realm
of pure acausality. Hence The Abyss can be considered as an
interchange, a nexus, of temporal, atemporal, and spatial and aspatial,
dimensions. This region is, for example, symbolized on The Tree of
Wyrd, as being between the spheres of Sun and Mars, and 'Entering the
Abyss' is that stage of magickal development which distinguishes the
Master/ Mistress from the Adept. Esoterically, The Tree of Wyrd is
itself a re-presentation of The Abyss, as are other esoteric
representations, such as The Star Game.
Acausal
Order of Nine Angles Acausal
The term acausal refers to "acausal Time and acausal Space": that
is, to the acausal Universe. This acausal Universe is part of the Cosmos,
which Cosmos consists of both the acausal and the causal, where
"causal refers to the Universe that is described, or re-presented, by
causal Space and causal Time. This causal Universe is that of our
physical, phenomenal, Universe, currently described by sciences such
as Physics and Astronomy.
The acausal is non-Euclidean, and "beyond causal Time": that is, it
cannot be represented by our finite causal geometry (of three spatial
dimensions at right angles to each other) and by the flow, the change, of
causal Time (past-present-future), or measured by a duration of causal
Time.
In addition - and just as causal energy exists in the causal
(understood as such energy is by sciences such as Physics) - acausal
47
49
Acausal Thinking
ONA Acausal Thinking
One of The Dark Arts. Acausal Thinking is basically apprehending
the causal, and acausal energy, as these "things" are - that is, beyond all
causal abstractions, and beyond all causal symbols, and symbolism,
where such causal symbols include language, and the words and terms
that are part of language.
One technique used to develope Acausal Thinking is The Star
Game (qv).
TOTBL - Naming Spiritual Forces
In order to focus our consciousness to, and link our unconscious
minds with, the essence of these dark gods and establish contact with
them, we need to penetrate the hidden heart of darkness and explore the
concrete effect that these forces of Black Light have on our selves and
the world at large. After we have identified, experienced,* and on a
deeper level intuitively understood the relevant effects that these
acosmic powers have on the spiritual, mental, astral and physical planes
of existence we can try to use words and symbols in order to better and
more easily grasp their transcendent core. It is only at this stage that the
Nameless Ones can be given names. For to name a spiritual force within
an esoteric context is the same thing as trying to, with one (or many)
words, describe and emphasize its most significant qualities, its inner
essence and the sum of its power, as it is understood by the limited
mind.
50
Aeon
An Aeon - according to the Sinister Way of the ONA - is a
particular presencing of certain acausal energies on this planet, Earth,
which energies affect a multitude of individuals over a certain period of
causal time. One such affect is via the psyche of individuals. This
particular presencing which is an Aeon is via a particular nexion, which
is an Aeonic civilization, which Aeonic civilization is brought-intobeing in a certain geographical area and usually associated with a
particular mythos. Nexion 913 modifies the term Aeon so as to include
Acausal presencing beyond this planet Earth and beyond
geographical areas, so as to include spacial parsecs, because not all
human civilizations will live on, or near, Earth, or for that matter, any
planet whatsoever.
Archetype
An archetype is a particular causal presencing of a certain acausal
energy and is thus akin to a type of acausal living being in the causal
(and thus "in the psyche"): it is born (or can be created, by magickal
means), its lives, and then it "dies" (ceases to be present, presenced) in
the causal (i.e. its energy in the causal ceases).
Amagian*
Those people, works, agendas, literature, technology, politics, and
philosophy, of a specific design so as to combat and defeat the Magian
influence, and the Magian infrastructure.
51
Amrika/Amerika
A spelling used to describe the now Magian nature of that country
commonly called America. Amrika has become the base of the magian
New World Order, and Amrikan military forces are used to extend the
Magian diktat to non-Western lands.
Balobians
Those artists, musicians, artisans, and writers (and similar types),
who share or are inspired by the sinister ethos and/or the Dreccian, or
Satanic, life-style of the ONA, and/or who share some or all of our aims
and objectives, but who may not have some formal involvement with
us, and who usually do not publicly claim association with the ONA or
with the ONA ethos.
Baphomet ONA
Baphomet is regarded as a Dark Goddess - a sinister female entity,
The Mistress (or Mother) of Blood. According to tradition, she is
represented as a beautiful mature woman, naked from the waist up, who
holds in her hand the severed head of a man.
She is regarded as one manifestation of one of The Dark Gods, The
Bride-and-Mother of Satan, and Rites to presence Baphomet in our
causal continuum exist, for example in The Grimoire of Baphomet.
Causal Abstractions
Abstractions (aka causal abstractions) are manifestations of the
primary (causal) nature of mundanes, and are manufactured by
mundanes in their mundane attempt to understand the world,
themselves, and the causal Universe. Exoterically, abstractions represent the mundane simplicity of causal linearality - of causal
reductionism, of a simple cause-and-effect, of a limited causal thinking.
All abstractions are devoid of Dark-Empathy and the perspective of
acausality, and thus are redolent of, or directly manifest, materialism
and the Untermensch ethos derived from such materialism.
Understood exoterically, an abstraction is the manufacture, and use
of, some idea, ideal, "image" or category, and thus some generalization,
and/or some assignment of an individual or individuals to some group
or category. The positing of some "perfect" or "ideal" form, category, or
thing, is part of abstraction.
Abstractions hide the true nature of Reality - which is both causal
and acausal, and which true nature can be apprehended and understood
by means of The Dark Arts, and thus by following the Occult way from
Initiate, to Adept, and beyond.
According to the ONA, the so-called Occult Arts - and especially
the so-called Satanism - of others are manifestations of causal
abstractions, lacking as they do the learning of the skills of DarkEmpathy, Acausal- Thinking, and Sinister Sorcery, and thus lacking as
they do the ability to develope our latent human faculties and our latent
sinister character.
53
Causalcline*
The definition of cline varies according to its subject matter and
context, and yet maintains the indication of a particular phenomena
within causal physicality, for example, a biological cline is an ecotone
that displays a continuous gradient, a hydological cline indicates a
fluidic layer with a property that varies, et al. There are several kinds of
clines (linguistic, mathematical) which one should research for
themselves. Nexion 913 coins the term Causalcline to denote that state
of, those nexional permutations, and that ratio of causal to acausal,
pertaining to a given nexions capacity, and those stages of evolution and
development pertaining to individual lifetimes, and a species series of
civilizations throughout the aeons. Causalcline can also indicate that
anti-causal antithesis layer between the finite and limiting causal realm,
and the boundless adimensional ur-essence.
Dark Arts
The Dark Arts are the skills traditionally learnt by those following
the Seven Fold (Sinister) Way, and include Dark-Empathy, AcausalThinking, and practical sorcery (External, Internal, and Aeonic).
In addition, a sinister tribe of Dreccs (qv) is a new type of Dark
Art, developed by the ONA to Presence The Dark in practical ways.
Dark-Empathy
One of The Dark Arts. Also called Sinister-Empathy (qv). The term
Dark-Empathy (also written Dark Empathy) is also sometimes used to
describe that-which is redolent of the acausal, and thus that-which
presences or which can presence "dark forces" (dark/acausal energies)
in the causal and in human beings; and thus used in this exoteric sense it
refers to that-which imbues or which can imbue things with acausal
54
energy, and which distinguishe the Occult in general from the exoteric
and the mundane.
Dark Gods
According to the Sinister Tradition of the ONA, The Dark Gods
(aka The Dark Ones) are specific entities - living-beings of a particular
acausal species - who exist in the realms of the acausal, with some of
these entities having been presenced, via various nexions, on Earth in
our distant past. [See, for example, the ONA MS The Mythos of the
Dark Gods: Beings of Acausal Darkness. ]
Drecc
Someone who lives a practical sinister life, and thus who lives by
The Law of the Sinister-Numen (qv) and who thus Presences The Dark
in practical ways by practical sinister deeds. A sinister tribe is a
territorial and independent group of Dreccs (often including drecclings that is, the children of Dreccs) who band together for their mutual
advantage and who rule or who seek to rule over a particular area,
neighbourhood, or territory. A sinister tribe is thus a practical
manifestation of the Dreccian way of life.
Dreccs, and their associated tribe, rarely engage in overt practical
sorcery and mostly do not describe themselves as Satanists or even as
following the LHP. Instead, they describe and refer to themselves,
simply, as Drecc.
Ethos
Ethos refers to the distinguishing character, or nature, of a
particular weltanschauung. The spirit that animates it.
55
Empathy
Empathy is a natural faculty possessed by human beings, and
reveals (dis-covers) a type of knowing - a perception - distinct from the
knowing posited by both conventional philosophy and experimental
science. A numinous philosophy - such as The Numinous Way - adds
the faculty of empathy to our physical senses, and adds the perception
of empathy to the perception of Phainmenon, and thus to the
Aristotelian essentials of conventional philosophy and experimental
science. The perception which empathy provides [ -s ] is both
of acausality and of the personal immediacy-of-the-causal-moment. The
essence of the faculty of empathy is a sympathy, , with other
living beings arising from a perception of the acausal reality underlying
the causal division of beings, existents, into separate, causal-separated,
objects and the subject-object relationship which is or has been assumed
by means of the process of causal ideation to exist between such
causallyseparate beings.
Exeatic
To go beyond and transgress the limits imposed and prescribed by
mundanes, and by the systems which reflect or which manifest the ethos
of mundanes - for example, governments, and the laws of what has been
termed "society".
Exeatic Science*
Nexion 913 advocates a scientific revolution whereby science is
seized, taken from mundane governments and their monetary agendas,
and conducted in such a manner that we advance beyond the mundane
populous, politic, and governmental authority. Such is the only viable
method of achieving the Scientific Ethos, and achieving the state of
Posthuman (Homo Galacticus). Exeatic Science implies the use,
56
Exoteric/Esoteric
Exoteric refers to the outer (or causal) form, or meaning, or nature,
or character, or appearance, of some thing; while esoteric refers to its
Occult/inner/acausal essence or nature. What is esoteric is that which is
generally hidden from mundanes (intentionally or otherwise), or which
mundanes cannot perceive or understand. Causal abstractions (qv) tend
to hide the esoteric nature (character) of things, and/or such abstractions
describe or refer to that-which is only causal and mundane and thus
devoid of Dark-Empathy.
Thus, a form manufactured by an Adept for some Aeonic purpose for example, a tactic to aid strategic aims - has an outer appearance and
an outer meaning which is usually all that mundanes perceive or
understand, even though it has an (inner) esoteric meaning.
Falcifer
1. The title of the first volume of The Deofel Quartet.
2. The exoteric name given to the esoteric (or "hidden") nexion
which is opened by Adepts to prepare the way for Vindex. This
nexion - like Vindex - may be presenced in a specific individual,
or in a group of individuals. There is a symbiotic relationship
between Falcifer and Vindex, who - if presenced in individuals can be either male or female.
57
Galacticus Biology*
Nexion 913 refers to mankinds state of pursuing, or not pursuing,
Galacticus Biology as the criteria of identifying the infected and the
immune (mundane and sinister). Technology is a means, though
hindered by Philosophical Biology, to achieve a more perfect state of
knowing and being, and to manipulate that state at will, towards sinister
desires, and exploration. At the point manifesting Homo Galacticus
biology and technology, biology will not be catered to when defining
and achieving well being. Homo Galacticus will determine, and employ,
the necessary biology needed to thrive in any given environment
whatsoever, making it possible to explore, and endure, any planet or
vessel, thus expanding Galacticus populations to any distant planet we
develop the desire, and ability, to reach.
Hebdomadry
A traditional name used to describe The Septenary System.
Hordes
The term horde is used in the general sense of a swarming crowd, a
swarming mass of humans. There is no specific relation intended, by the
58
usage of the term horde, to the tribes, the hordes, of Genghis Khan or
his descendants, such as Batu Khan, and his Ak Orda. The term horde is
apt since it relates to humans, and specifically it now implies uncouth
behaviour, and the killing of other human beings, which makes it
somewhat more apt than others terms, such as swarm.
Honour
This is defined by a personal Code of Honour [see below], and is
the practical means whereby we can live in an empathic way, consistent
with the Cosmic perspective of The Numinous Way. Honour is thus a
means for us to cease to cause, and to alleviate, suffering to the other
life which exists in the Cosmos. Honour is how we can change, and
control, ourselves in a moral way, and it is the moral basis for giving
personal loyalty (or allegiance) and undertaking obligations relating to
one's personal duty, which duty we pledge (or swear) to do on our
honour. One of the most obvious outward expressions of living by
honour is the possession of personal manners.
Hubriati
The hubriati are that class of individuals, in the West, who have
been and who are subsumed by hubris and the delusion of abstractions,
and who occupy positions of influence and/or of power. Hubriati
include politicians, Media magnates and their savants, military
commanders, government officials, industrialists, bankers, many
academics and teachers, and so on. The oligarchy (elected and
unelected) that forms the controllers of Western governments are almost
excursively hubriati. Among the abstractions which delude hubriati are
the State, the nation, abstract law, and the pretence that is called
"democracy".
59
Interrogist (ist)*
Those who reject the superficial and interrogate, thus recognizing
and seeking out the deeper functions of reality, and society, which
pertains to attaining higher levels of attention. Only the such
recognition, or sight, is indicated by this term.
Interrogistic (tic)*
Those acting on Interrogist insight, making use of opportunities,
and actively seeking out higher levels of, awareness. The active
removal of political, religious, cultural, and traditional lenses which
impair accurate perception.
Interrogisma (ma)*
Ones external, or environmental, methods of action. Ones
approach to exoteric reality, including, though, not limited to, Exeatic
Science.
Interrogismi (mi)*
Ones internal, or intellectual, methods of approach to esoteric
realities, the numinous, and Void.
Law also describes the sinister ethos of The Order of Nine Angles. [The
Sinister Code is given in full in an Appendix, below.]
Magian
The term Magian is used to refer to the hybrid ethos of Yahoud and
of Western hubriati. The Magian ethos is represented in the victory of
consumerism, capitalism and usury over genuine, numinous, living
culture; in the vulgarity of mechanistic Marxism, Freudian psychology,
and the social engineering and planning and surveillance of the nanny
State; in the vulgarity of modern entertainment centered around sex,
selfish-indulgence, lack of manners and dignity, and vacuous
"celebrities" (exemplified by Hollywood); and in the conniving, the
hypocrisy, the slyness, and the personal dishonourable conduct, which
nearly all modern politicians in the West reveal and practice.
Magick
Magick (aka Sorcery) - according to the Sinister tradition of the
ONA - is defined as "the presencing of acausal energy in the causal by
means of a nexion. By the nature of our consciousness, we, as human
individuals, are one type of nexion - that is, we have the ability to
access, and presence, certain types of acausal energy."
61
62
Methodological Biology*
Nexion 913 refers to mankinds anatomical state as Methodological
Biology. This term represents mankinds physical, biological, being. It
does not imply mans emergent qualities such as conscious, intellectual,
or numinous being, which we term Philosophical Biology.
Mortaklavis*
That record kept by Nexion 913 which details the lives and events
of those who dedicate their lives to the Kustoms and Kourt of 913s
standards of noble livelihood and opposition to Magian and cosmic
constructs.
Mundane
Exoterically, mundanes are defined as those who are not of our
sinister kind - that is, as those who do not live by The Law of the
Sinister-Numen (qv).
Esoterically, mundane-ness is defined as being under the influence
of, or being in thrall to, or being addicted to, and/or believing in, and/or
using as a means of understanding, causal abstractions (qv).
63
Naos
1. The name of one of the "boards" (spheres) of The Star Game,
taken from the star of the same name: Zeta Puppis in the
constellation Argo.
2. The title of the ONA text "Naos - A Practical Guide to
Becoming An Adept".
3. According to aural legend, there is also a Star Gate - an actual
physical nexion - in the region around or near to this particular
star.
N913*
The phrase Interrogistic Methodological Framework is quite a
mouthful, thus while it remains to be the official title of N913's ever
growing philosophy, it has been abbreviated for ease of use in casual
conversation. I and M represent Interrogistic Methodologies, and
are the ninth and thirteenth letters of the English alphabet. N
represents the term nexion, thus the abbreviation N913.
Nexion
A nexion is a specific connexion between, or the intersection of, the
causal and the acausal, and nexions can, exoterically, be considered to
be akin to "gates" or openings or "tunnels" where there is, or can be,
either a flow of acausal energy (and thus also of acausal entities) from
the acausal into our causal Space and causal Time; a journeying into the
acausal itself; or a willed, conscious flow or presencing (by dark
sorcery) of acausal energies.
Basically, there are three main types of nexion. The first is an
actual physical nexion. The second type of nexion is a living causal
being, such as ourselves. The third type of nexion is a magickal
64
Nexional Permutation*
The alignment of causal segments, such as those studied in terms of
the Queastellyeahan Meditation and Queastellyeahan Mathematics. As
there are different sorts of nexions, there are different nexional
permutations on different strata of causality and acausality. By altering
the permutation one alters the conduit, that is to say, increases or
decreases the flow of energy through a nexion, or the verity of energies.
From one stage of life to another, or from one aeon to another, the
acausal energies presenced are different because the nexion itself is
different. The aeon or stage of life in question, for 913, has in ones own
consciousness, or in a civilizations Kollective consciousness, achieving
the next order of magnitude, the next level of nexion so as to presence
greater acausal energies, completing on life stage, or aeon, and moving
on to the next, a new being.
Nine Angles
The Nine Angles have several meanings - or interpretations,
exoteric and esoteric - depending on context. In the esoteric sense, they
re-present the nine combinations (and transformations) of the three
basic "alchemical" substances, which nine and their transformations
(causal and acausal) are themselves re-presented by The Star Game.
In the exoteric, pre-Adept, sense, they may be said to re-present the
7 nexions of the Tree of Wyrd plus the 2 nexions which re-present the
ToW as itself a nexion, with The Abyss (a connexion between the
individual and the acausal) being one of these 2 "other nexions". It
should be remembered, of course, that each sphere of the ToW is not
65
Numinous
As used by The Numinous Way, the term numinous means a
presencing of acausal energy, in the causal. In a more ordinary sense,
what is numinous is what we might regard as 'sacred'; as special. It thus
contains, or manifests, presences, beauty, harmony. It reminds us that
we are but a single nexion, among many. It reminds us of Nature, and
the Cosmos, beyond us - it provides us with perspective. It presences
the true meaning of life, the true meaning of our causal existence, since
it is manifestation to us, for us, of the essence of Life itself, of The
66
The Numen
The Numen is the source, the origin, of the numinous, and may be
considered to be The Unity (the Being) that is hidden by causal
abstractions, since causal abstractions are based upon/derive from the
illusion of the separation of living beings. The acausal knowing that
empathy provides is a revealing of the being that is The Numen - and
thus of ourselves (our being) as but one nexion of and for The Numen.
Thus, Being is revealed as a-causal: as beyond all causal
apprehensions/abstractions, with as one manifestation of Being in
the causal.
67
Philosophical Biology*
Nexion 913 refers to mankinds memetic state as Philosophical
Biology. Memetics are directly related to, or rather, are the platform of,
systems of culture, subculture, politics, law, religion, and are regarded
as infections. As with any other form of infection, we seek to inoculate
ourselves, and practice hygienic awareness to prevent future infection.
Psyche
The psyche of the individual is a term used, in the Sinister Way, to
describe those aspects of an individual those aspects of consciousness
- which are hidden, or inaccessible to, or unknown to, the individual.
Basically, such aspects can be considered to be those forces/energies
which do or which can influence the individual in an emotional way or
in a way which the individual has no direct control over or
understanding of. One part of this psyche is what has been called "the
unconscious", and some of the forces/energies of this "unconscious"
have been, and can be, described by the term "archetypes"
68
Rounwytha
The name traditionally given to those few, rare, individuals (mostly
women) who naturally possessed the gift of Dark-Empathy (aka
Sinister-Empathy).
Satan
Satan is regarded, by the ONA, as the exoteric "name" of a
particular acausal being: that is, as a living entity dwelling in the
acausal. This entity has the ability to presence, to be manifest in, our
causal, phenomenal world, and the ability - being a shapeshifter - to
assume various causal forms. Regarding the "names" of such beings,
see, for example, Footnote (2) of the MS The Mythos of the Dark Gods.
Satanism
According to the ONA, Satanism is a specific Left Hand Path, one
aim of which is to transform, to evolve, the individual by the use of
esoteric Arts, including Dark Sorcery. Another aim is, through using the
Sinister Dialectic, to transform the world, and the causal itself, by - for
example - returning, presencing, in the causal, not only the entity
known as Satan but also others of The Dark Gods.
In essence, and thus esoterically, Satanism - as understood and
practised by the ONA (presenced by means of Traditional Nexions) - is
one important exoteric form appropriate to the current Aeon, and thus
useful in Presencing The Dark.
69
Septenary
A name for the basic symbology (causal magickal symbolism) of
the Seven Fold Sinister Way represented exoterically by The Tree of
Wyrd, and consisting of seven stages or "spheres" joined by various
pathways.
Sinister Dialectic
The sinister dialectic (often called the sinister dialectic of history)
is the name given to Satanic strategy - which is to further our evolution
in a sinister way by, for example, (a) the use of Black Magick/sinister
presencings to change individuals/events on a significant scale over
long periods of causal Time; (b) to gain control and influence; (c) the
use of Satanic forms and magickal presencings to produce/provoke
large scale changes over periods of causal Time; (d) to bring-into-being
a New Aeon; (e) to cause and sow disruption and Chaos as a prelude to
any or all or none of the foregoing.
Sinister-Empathy
Sinister-Empathy (aka Acausal-Empathy aka Dark-Empathy) is a
specific type of empathy - that which relates to and concerns acausalknowing. That is, the perception and the understanding of the acausal
nature of those beings which possess or which manifest acausal energy.
Sinister-empathy is one of the skills/abilities that can be learnt by
suitable (but not all) Internal Adepts, and can be developed by those
beyond that particular esoteric stage of knowledge and understanding.
Some rare individuals (traditionally called by the name
Rounwytha) are naturally gifted with Dark Empathy.
70
Sinister-Numen
The Sinister-Numen is the term used to describe that which, and
those whom, re-present certain types of acausal energy in the causal.
Thus, certain archetypes, and archetypal forms, are - exoterically sinisterly numinous, and hence have the ability to influence and inspire
human beings - as well as, in some cases, having the ability to direct
certain individuals beyond the ability of those individuals to control
such direction.
One of the most practical manifestations (the most practical
presencing) of the sinister-numen in the causal realm is The Law of The
Sinister-Numen, and which Law serves to define, and to manifest, that
which is not-mundane, and thus that-which-is-ONA.
Sinister Way
A name given to the system of training (magickal and practical) of
Initiates used by the ONA. Sometimes also called The Seven-Fold
Sinister Way.
It consists of seven stages, each represented by a particular
magickal Grade. [See, for example, the ONA MS NAOS.] One aim of
the Way is to create Satanic individuals.
Sorcery
Often used as a synonym of magick (qv). Sorcery - according to the
Dark, Sinister, tradition followed by the ONA - is the use, by an
individual, individuals, or a group, of acausal energy, either directly
(raw/acausal/chaos) or by means of symbolism, forms, ritual, words,
chant (or similar manifestations or presencing(s) of causal constructs)
71
Star Game
The Star Game is a re-presentation of the nine aspects of the basic
three whose changing in causal time represents a particular presencing
of acausal energy. That is, the nine re-presents not only the nexion that
is the presencing of the acausal evident in our psyche and
consciousness, but also many other nexions as well.
This particular re-presentation is an "abstract" one, as distinct from
the more "causal" symbology of The Tree of Wyrd (and of the septenary
system itself).
The Star Game exists in two basic forms: the "simple form" and the
"advanced" form, and one of its aims is to develope acausal-thinking
(beyond causal abstractions) and thus skill in five-dimensional magick.
It can also be played as a "game", akin to a chess, and can be used
magickally, to presence acausal energies.
The basics of The Star Game are described in the ONA MS NAOS.
Subtractive-Memeplex*
Two things are implied by this compound word.
1. Subtractive, indicates that something is missing from the whole.
Something, someone, or some idea, is being, or has been,
removed, or subtracted from the nature of man.
2. Memeplex, indicates memes. Memes are ideas, concepts, or
beliefs that behave like biological genes. Memes may multiply,
gain or lose traits, and sometimes pair with other memes so as to
develop larger memelogical organisms. There are many species
72
Technological Nomos*
Technological Nomos implies the use, development, and
employment of science, technology, and medicine, in the hands of
Nations, States, and Governments, for the purpose of maintaining
political, corporate, and monetary, ownership of Earths people, and
resources. Technological Nomos is the state of, and limitation of,
science in the hands of the mundane, where each are used to generate
financial profit for corporate entities, no matter the damage done to
human health, and without concern for the damage to the ecosystem of
the planet Earth. For this reason they must be destroyed.
Traditional Nexions
ONA
A name given to ONA groups (aka Temples) where individuals
undertake The Seven Fold Way, and where sinister ceremony sorcery is
undertaken. Many (though not all) Traditional Nexions follow the path
of Satanism.
Traditional Satanism
ONA
A term, first used by the ONA several decades ago, to describe its
own Sinister and Septenary Way, and to distinguish it from the other
types of "Satanism" (such as those of Lavey and Aquino) which were
once given public prominence.
The term was used to describe the ONA due to the aural, and other,
teachings of the ONA: many of which teachings (such as the Septenary
system and Esoteric Chant; legends and myths regarding Baphomet and
The Dark Gods; and Satanism as an individual Way of personal and
Aeonic evolution) were handed down aurally by reclusive sinister
Adepts over many centuries.
The term Traditional Satanism has since been appropriated by
others, some of whom have attempted to redefine it.
74
Tree of Wyrd
The Tree of Wyrd, as conventionally described ("drawn") and with
its correspondences and associations and symbols (see the ONA MS
NAOS), re-presents certain acausal energies, and the individual who
becomes familiar with such correspondences and associations and
symbols can access (to a greater or lesser degree depending on their
ability and skill) the energies associated with the Tree of Wyrd. The
Tree of Wyrd itself is one symbol, one re-presentation, of that meeting
(or "intersection") of the causal and acausal which is a human being,
and can be used to represent the journey, the quest, of the individual
toward the acausal - that is, toward the goal of magick, which is the
creation of a new, more evolved, individual.
Vindex
The name of the exoteric (or "outer") nexion through which
powerful acausal energies are presenced on Earth in order to destroy the
current status quo (the Old Aeon, now manifest in the so-called New
World Order) and prepare the way for - and inaugurate the practical
beginnings of - the New Aeon. Like Falcifer (q.v.), Vindex can be
presenced ("manifest") in an individual (who may be male or female). If
an individual, Vindex is the embodiment of The Law of the New Aeon,
which is personal honour [See the ONA MSS The Law of the New Aeon
and Tyrannies End: Anarchy, Magick and the Law of Personal Honour].
Used as the exoteric name of an individual, Vindex means "the
Avenger", and while it is traditionally (and semantically) regarded as a
male name, with the Anglicized feminine form being Vengerisse,
Vindex is now often used to refer to either the man or the woman who is
or who becomes the nexion.
Vindex is simply the individual, who by their skill, their personal
character, their cunning, their intelligence, their warrior prowess, their
75
Agios Vindex
Direct translation into English of the chant title Agios Vindex is
Holy Vindex. Vindex "was powerful in body and of shrewd
intelligence, was skilled in warfare and full of daring for any great
enterprise; and he had a passionate love of freedom and a vast
ambition." Vindex is the embodiment, on both an Individual and Aeonic
level, of such an ideal; and the chant is a presencing and drawing forth
of its appropriate energies. Of course, this is only one view on the
meaning and significance of Vindex. There are many more ways in
which this force can be described in relation to the Septenary and the
Dark Tradition. These Numinous forms may be viewed from many
angles, each different angle revealing a different interpretation of the
Archetypes underlying force and energy. Through path workings these
shall be uncovered by the aspirant initiate. This principle applies to all
of the above descriptions They are one-sided and DO NOT reveal or
describe the archetypes in their totality. This revealing, in full, can only
be achieved through using the chants in an appropriate manner; and
each individual will perceive them differently.
Wyrd
As used by the ONA, Wyrd is the term used to describe that suprapersonal forces (aka energies) which can influence individuals, which
non-Adepts cannot control in any manner, which Adepts can discover
and to a quite limited extent influence, but which only those of and
beyond the esoteric stage of Master/Mistress (that is, beyond The
Abyss) can fully synchronize with.
76
personal honour. 913 alters this term to imply the first three of the Final
Six aeons, or stages of human development, by which the Magian are
defeated, while the final three pertain to ending causal space and time.
Pathei-mathos ( qv. Aeschylus - Agamemnon,174-183) is the
process of learning from personal adversity/personal suffering/hard
personal experience. It is thus a means of developing good, a fair,
personal judgement - that is, thoughtful (balanced) reasoning
[] - and of maintaining the natural balance, the harmony
[] of the Cosmos, manifest in .
78
(hubris) is the error of personal insolence, of going beyond
the proper limits set by reasoned (balanced) judgement - and by an awareness, a personal knowing, of the numinous, and which
knowing of the numinous is provided by empathy.
