<chuckle>  I never really thought it was anything mysterious…like

Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.

There is now a WWW page dedicated to the T.’.G.’.D.’. at the following
URL
http://152.163.199.21/thelemicgd/TGD/tgd.html

Available on the page are a number of the Order’s Official Documents,
links to our "official" FTP site. (Most of the Occult FTP sites have
out of date information regarding the Order, I am presently working to
correct this situation) and other sites of Thelemic/Magickal interest.

Greetings Robert,

But you never did answered my question, or I missed it (I think there was a
problem with the feed). I think I saw part of the answer, I thought – how
would a woman (or a lady) be addressed i.e. what replaces the ‘ap’. I think
I saw that she takes her father’s name. Sorry if you did answer this,
before.

Blessed be,

Female names are traditionally in the format e.g. Morwen ferch Rhys.
Ferch (pronounced verr-ch – ch as in loch) means daughter, and Rhys is the
father’s name. If you’re a feminist there’s nothing to stop you from calling
yourself Morwen ferch Nia (mother’s name) instead. Most Welsh people nowadays
follow the forename + surname convention e.g. Branwen Jones.

Land = Cymru ("come-ree")
People = Cymry (same pronunciation)
Male = Cymro ("come-raw")
Female = Cymraes ("come-rye-ess")
Language = Cymraeg ("come-rye-g")
Adjective = Cymreig ("come-ray-g")

The root of the word may be related to cymrodor = fellow (i.e. fellowship).
What you decide to call us in English is your own affair . We’ll be rather
pleased at any effort at this foreign tongue of ours, so don’t feel
self-conscious, especially if you’re in Mid- or North Wales (lots of Welsh
speakers oops llawer o bobl yn siarad Gymraeg).

Hwyl!

I wish to contact people who can help me with my development. If you are
not able to do this you will not reply.

Greetings in the name of Chaos. I have been a subscriber
to Tiamat for a few weeks now, but sad to say, I am
a bit disappointed. TIAMAT stands for Testing the Internet
as a Magickal/Aetheric Tool, but so far, I have been
getting nothing other than announcements for rituals
performed outside of the Net, or DreamMOO.

Modern occult practices attempt to actualize Chaos and
open the gates of the Abyss. The INTERNET is rapidly
becoming that. It is the biggest Anarchy ever in existence,
and it is forging connection of minds more realistically
than any aetheric bullshit can ever establish. I expected TIAMAT
to be the exploitation of this idea. William Gibson only dreamt
of what is happening to the Neurospace. We are seeing it growing
before our eyes. The Self is dissolved within cyberspace,
and it is possible that all magickal traditions have
only been mere metaphors of the possibility of this
rapidly growing Chaos Flux called the Net.

Through TIAMAT, I would like to invite participants to
devise ways (maybe by evoking Octarine Magic as suggested
by Pete Carroll) to transform oral or visual spells to
hypertext and digital images. (Virus and Net "knowbots"
programmers are welcome in this experimentation.) Artificial
intelligence will ultimately give way to Artificial Sentience,
the Living Spell that is a seed for the growing BEAST
within the Net. This is the magickal TITAN MONAD which will
be birthed by the TIAMAT. Our interaction with the Net will be
the seeds to be planted in TIAMAT’s womb. Imagine this: Cyberpunks
and Chaotes of all kinds, planting their seeds ( -> sigils
and imagefiles, spells and hypertexts, rituals and
programs) to bring forth a Living Spell. All sorcerers from
the beginning of time would be envious of the opportunity
we have right now. This is not the summoning of a deity
or godform but the creation of one.

IAO CHAOS,

ZHAMAN

If his patience is so divine, why did he drown the humans bakk in Noah’s day?
