Master Thelemic Invocation of Horus

 Master Thelemic Invocation of Horus

Originally written by Aliester Crowley in 1904 for the initial Book of the Law operations, it was part of Master Cherubim's 1999 program. The perversion of it as a curse by the Inner Order of Bast Temple (Hermetic Egyptian--not true Thelemic at all; their Hierophant was a former renegade TGD member . . . if I understand the whole story correctly), was never part of neither Master Cherubim's views (nor Astra, or Ravenspell's teachings); no, that remote initiation possibility was discovered all by the lonesome of that expelled Hierophant. Black magick. Why was that Adept kicked out? Ask the thief who robbed his cash drawer, and got whopped with initiatory energies unprepared.

Invocation of Horus

Strike, Strike the Master Chord!
Draw, Draw, the Flaming Sword!
Crowned Child and Conquering Lord!
Horus, Avenger!

O Thou Hawk-Headed Mystical Lord,
Thou Whose Word is the Great Reward!
Only-begotten Child who I acclaim,
From Mighty Isis and Osiris Slain!
Thou Avenger of the Unspeakable Horror:
Slayer of Typhon, Thee whom I adore!
Thou who didst lift thine Holy Head
And the Nile Crocodile was defeated!
Thou who dost conceal with the Night 
This immerse Universe of starry-light!
Thou who dost abide at the glorious Helm
Of the Boat of Ra, in the infinite Realm!
Thou who dost bear the Magick Double-Wand
And the Rose and Cross of the Mystick Bond,
Thee I invoke from the Inscrutable Beyond!

Strike, Strike, the Master Chord!
Draw, Draw, the Flaming Sword!
Crowned Child and Conquering Lord!
Horus, Avenger!

By Thy Name of Ra, Thou Hawk of the Sun,
Thee I invoke, Thou Most Glorious One!
By the name of Harmachis, Youth of Sunrise,
Thee I invoke to appear and to arise!
By the name of Mau, Thou Lion of Power,
Thee I invoke of the Mid-day Hour!
By the name of Tum, Thou Hawk of Even,
Thee I invoke of the Sunset Crimson!
By Thy Name of Kheph-Ra, Thou Beetle of Night,
Thee I invoke, O Thou Sun of Midnight!
By Heru-Pa-Kraat, Thou Lord of Defense,
Thee I invoke from the Great Silence!
By the Name HOORI, Thy Secret Holy Name,
Thee I invoke, and Thee I now acclaim,
O Warrior Lord of the Red-Ruby Flame!

Strike, Strike, the Master Chord!
Draw, Draw, the Flaming Sword!
Crowned Child and Conquering Lord!
Horus, Avenger!

Mine is the Head of the Man of this Rite,
As keen and subtle as the Hawk's is my Sight!
By my Head I invoke Thee, O Lord of the Light!
It is I, the only begotten Child I say,
Of the Sun and Moon, of both Night and Day!
By my body, I invoke Thee, and to Thee I pray!
For mine is the Sign that is given of none,
Save it be of Thee, O Thou Hawk-Headed Son!
By the Sign I invoke Thee, O Thou Mighty One!
And mine is the Triumphant Sign of Apophis,
The Destroyer and Mighty Lord of Darkness!
It is I who bears the Word of Double Power
And the Song of Old which I sing this hour!
And in my hand is Thy Holy Sword to Avenge,
By these I invoke Thee, O Lord of Revenge!

Strike, Strike, the Master Chord!
Draw, Draw, the Flaming Sword!
Crowned Child and Conquering Lord!
Horus, Avenger!

Mine is the Head of the Hawk of Flame:
Child of Isis and Osiris is my Name!
It is I who formulated my Father above,
And I who made fertile my Mother with Love!
I am the Avenger of Unspeakable Terror,
Of Great Typhon, I am the Mighty Slayer!
It was I, the One who raised my Holy Head
And the Nile Crocodile was annihilated!
It is I who shrouds the Night-Blue Sky 
With my Vast Nemyss as I soar and fly!
It is I who bears the Double-Wand of Power,
And the Cross of Gold and Ruby Flower,
For I am Horus, Who is invoked this hour!

Strike, Strike, the Master Chord!
Draw, Draw, the Flaming Sword!
Crowned Child and Conquering Lord!
Horus, Avenger!
