Liber III Vel Jugorum
Liber III vel Jugorum
0.
0. Behold the Yoke upon the neck of the Oxen! Is it not thereby that the
Field shall be plougherd? The Yoke is heavy, but joineth together them that
are seperate -- Glory to Nuit and to Hadit and to Him that hath given us the
Symbol of the Rosy Cross!
Glory unto the Lord of the Word Abrahadabra, and Glory unto Him that hath
given us the Symbol of the Ankh and of the Cross within the Circle!
1. Three are the Beasts wherewith thou must plough the Field; the Unicorn, the
Horse, and the Ox. And these shalt thou yoke in a triple yoke that is governed
by One Whip.
2. Now these Beasts run wildly upon the earths and are not easily obedient to
the Man.
3. Nothing shall be said here of Cerberus, the great Beast of Hell that is
every one of these and all of these, even as Athanasius hath foreshadowed. For
this matter* is not of Tiphareth without, but Tiphareth within.
I.
0. The Unicorn is speech. Man, rule thy Speech! How else shalt thou master the
Son, and answer the Magician at the Right Hand gateway of the Crown?
1. Here are practices. Each may last for a week, or more.
(a) Avoid using some common word, such as "and" or "the" or "but";
use a paraphrase.
(b) Avoid using some letter of the alphabet, such as "t" or "s" or "m";
use a paraphrase.
© Avoid using the pronouns and adjectives of the first person; use a
paraphrase.
Of thine own ingenium devise others.
2. On each occasion that thou art betrayed into saying that thou art sworn to
avoid, cut thyself sharply upon the wrist or forearm with a razor; even as thou
shouldst beat a disobedient dog. Feareth not the Unicorn the claws and teeth of
the Lion?
3. Thine arm then serveth thee both for a warning and for a record. Thou shalt
write down they daily progress in these practices, until thou art perfectly
vigilant at all times over the least word that slippeth from thy tongue.
Thus bind thyself, and thou shalt be forever free.
II.
0. The Horse is Action. Man, rule thine Action. How else shalt thou master the
Father, and answer the Fool at the Left Hand Gateway of the Crown?
1. Here are practices. Each may last for a week, or more.
(a) Avoid lifting the left arm above the waist.
(b) Avoid crossing the legs.
Of thine own ingenium devise others.
2. On each occasion that thou art betrayed into saying that thou art sworn to
avoid, cut thyself sharply upon the wrist or forearm with a razor; even as thou
shouldst beat a disobedient dog. Feareth not the Horse the teeth of the Camel?
3. Thine arm then serveth thee both for a warning and for a record. Thou shalt
write down they daily progress in these practices, until thou art perfectly
vigilant at all times over the least word that slippeth from thy tongue.
Thus bind thyself, and thou shalt be forever free.
III.
0. The Ox is thought. Man, rule thy thought! How else shalt thou master the
Holy Spirit, and answer the High Priestess in the Middle Gateway of the Crown?
1. Here are practices. Each may last for a week, or more.
(a) Avoid thinking of a definite subject and all things connected with
it, and let that subject be one which commonly occupies much of thy
thought, being frequently stimulated by sense-perceptions or the con-
versation of others.
(b) By some device, such as the changing of thy ring from one finger
to another, create in thyself two personalities, the thoughts of one
being within entirely different limits from that of the other, the
common ground being the necessities of life.**
Of thine own Ingenium devise others.
2. On each occasion that thou art betrayed into saying that thou art sworn to
avoid, cut thyself sharply upon the wrist or forearm with a razor; even as thou
shouldst beat a disobedient dog. Feareth not the Ox the goad of the Ploughman?
3. Thine arm then serveth thee both for a warning and for a record. Thou shalt
write down they daily progress in these practices, until thou art perfectly
vigilant at all times over the least word that slippeth from thy tongue.
Thus bind thyself, and thou shalt be forever free.
* (i.e., the matter of Cerberus)
** For instance, let A be a man of strong passions, skilled in the Holy
Qabalah, a vegetarian, and a keen "reactionary" politician. Let B be a
bloodless and ascetic thinker, occupied with business and family cares, an
eater of meat, and a keen progressive politician. Let no thought proper to
"A" arise when the ring is on the "B" finger, and vice versa.
