XXVI.\n\nOF THE NUMBERS ELEVEN AND TWELVE, WITH THE CABALISTICAL SCALE.\n\nTHE number Eleven, as it exceeds number ten, which is the number of the commandments, so it falls short of the number Twelve, which is of grace and perfection; therefore it is called the number of sins, and the penitent. Now the number twelve is divine, and that whereby the celestials are measured; it is, also, the number of signs in the Zodiac, over which there are twelve angels as chief, supported by the irrigation of the great name of God. In twelve years, also, Jupiter perfects his course; and the Moon daily runs through twelve degrees. There are, also, twelve chief joints in the body of man, viz. in hands, elbows, shoulders, thighs, knees, and vertebr\u00e6 of the feet. There is, also, a great power of the number twelve in divine mysteries. God chose twelve families of Israel, and set over them twelve princes; so many stones were placed in the midst of Jordan; and God commanded that so many should be set on the breast of the priest. Twelve lions did bear the brazen sea that was made by Solomon; there were so many fountains in Helim; and so many Apostles of Christ set over the twelve tribes; and twelve thousand people were set apart and chosen.\n\nTHE SCALE OF THE NUMBER TWELVE.\n\nThe names of God with twelve letters,\n\n\u05d4\u05d5\u05d0\nHoly,\n\n\u05d1\u05e8\u05d5\u05e8\nBleffed,\n\n\u05d4\u05e7\u05e8\u05e9\nHe,\n\nThe great name returned back into twelve banners,\n\n\u05d9\u05d4\u05d5\u05d4\n\n\u05d4\u05d4\u05d5\n\n\u05d5\u05d4\u05d4\n\n\u05d4\u05d5\u05d4'\n\n\u05d4\u05d5\u05d9\u05d4\n\n\u05d4\u05d7\u05d9\u05d5\n\nTwelve orders of blessed spirits,\n\nSeraphim,\n\nCherubim,\n\nThrones,\n\nDominations,\n\nPowers,\n\nVirtues,\n\nTwelve angels ruling over the twelve signs,\n\nMalchidial,\n\nAsmodel,\n\nAmbriel,\n\nMuriel,\n\nVerchiel,\n\nHamaliel,\n\nTwelve tribes,\n\nDan,\n\nRuben,\n\nJudah,\n\nManasseh,\n\nAsher,\n\nSimeon,\n\nTwelve prophets,\n\nMalachi,\n\nHaggai,\n\nZachariah,\n\nAmos,\n\nHosea,\n\nMicha,\n\nTwelve apostles,\n\nMatthias,\n\nThaddeus,\n\nSimon,\n\nJohn,\n\nPeter,\n\nAndrew,\n\nTwelve signs of the Zodiac,\n\nAries,\n\nTaurus,\n\nGemini,\n\nCancer,\n\nLeo,\n\nVirgo,\n\nTwelve months\n\nMarch,\n\nApril,\n\nMay,\n\nJune,\n\nJuly,\n\nAugust,\n\nTwelve plants,\n\nSang,\n\nUpright vervain,\n\nBending vervain,\n\nComfrey,\n\nLadies' seal,\n\nCalamint,\n\nTwelve stones,\n\nSardonius,\n\nA cornelian,\n\nTopaz,\n\nCalcedony,\n\nJasper,\n\nEmerald,\n\nTwelve principal members,\n\nHead,\n\nNeck,\n\nArms,\n\nBreast,\n\nHeart,\n\nBelly,\n\nTwelve degrees of the damned, and of devils.\n\nFalse gods,\n\nLying spirits,\n\nVessels of iniquity,\n\nRevengers of wickedness,\n\nJugglers,\n\nAiry powers,\n\nTHE SCALE OF THE NUMBER TWELVE.\n\n\u05d0\u05d1\u05d1\u05d6\u05da\u05da\u05da\u05ea\u05d4\u05e7\u05e8\u05e9\nFather, Son, Holy Ghost.\n\nIn the original world.\n\n\u05d5\u05d4\u05d3\u05d9\n\n\u05d5\u05d4\u05d4\n\n\u05d9\u05d4\u05d9\u05d4\n\n\u05d4\u05d9\u05d4\u05d5\n\n\u05d4\u05d9\u05d5\u05d4\n\n\u05d4\u05d4\u05d5\u05d9\n\nPrincipalities,\n\nArchangels,\n\nAngels,\n\nInnocents,\n\nMartyrs,\n\nConfessors.\n\nIn the intelligible world.\n\nZuriel,\n\nBarbiel,\n\nAdnachiel,\n\nHanael,\n\nGabriel,\n\nBarchiel.\n\nIssachar,\n\nBenjamin,\n\nNaphthalin,\n\nGad,\n\nZabulon,\n\nEphraim.\n\nJonah,\n\nObadiah,\n\nZephaniah,\n\nNahum,\n\nHabakkuk,\n\nJoel.\n\nBartholomew,\n\nPhilip,\n\nJames the elder,\n\nThomas,\n\nMatthew,\n\nJames the younger.\n\nLibra,\n\nScorpius,\n\nSagittarius,\n\nCapricorn,\n\nAquarius,\n\nPisces.\n\nIn the celestial world.\n\nSeptember,\n\nOctober,\n\nNovember,\n\nDecember,\n\nJanuary,\n\nFebruary.\n\nIn the elemental world.\n\nScorpion grass,\n\nMugwort,\n\nPimpernel,\n\nDock,\n\nDragonwort,\n\nAristolochy.\n\nBeryl,\n\nAmethyst,\n\nHyacinth,\n\nChrysophrasus,\n\nChrystal,\n\nSapphire.\n\nKidnies,\n\nGenitals,\n\nHams,\n\nKnees,\n\nLegs,\n\nFeet.\n\nIn the elementary world.\n\nFuries, the sowers of evil,\n\nSisters, or triers,\n\nTempters, or ensnarers,\n\nWitches,\n\nApostates,\n\nInfidels.\n\nIn the infernal world.","title":"The Magus/Book 1/Part 2/Chapter 26","tradition":"ritual-magic","translated_text":null,"word_count":491}
