THE TRISICKLE

Esoteric Notes on the Trisickle

The essence of the Dark Tradition of the Order of Nine Angles is symbolized by the Trisickle. As mentioned in another manuscript, the Trisickle itself is a symbol of the Dark Goddess Kali, whom is equated with Baphomet, because Kali holds in her hands both a Trident and Sickle.

The word “kali” itself means both “Time” and “Dark/Black/Mystery.” Together we reconfigurate “kali” to mean “Space-Time,” which is to say: the Living Cosmos Itself, which is the Cosmic Womb. Space-Time is both our beginning: from which we came; and our end: the colonization of Space, or Galactic Imperium.

The Trident, or upper part of the Triscikle itself represents the Acausal. It’s Three Points represents the Three Alchemical Agents of the Star Game. Pertaining to the Star Game, the possible combinations of these Three Alchemical Agents equals the Nine Angles esoterically.

In Taoist Yoga, or Taoist Alchemy these Three Alchemical Agents are the three aspects of Life Force: 1) Salt/Sulfur symbolizing Essence or Jing; 2) Lead symbolizing Vitality or Chi; and 3) Mercury symbolizing Spirit or Shen.

Jing – or Generative Force – is the first step in the cycle of Life Force. It is that burning heat or desire of sexual arousal and passion, Thus the Taoist Alchemists symbolize it with Sulfur and or Salt, due to the fact that Salt burns your tongue or arouses your sense of taste.

Jing transmutes into Chi/Vril or Vitality. This is the Life force in it’s base mode which animates and keeps the body alive. Therefore the Taoist Alchemists symbolize it with Lead. It is from this Lead that Gold will be produced.

Chi transmutes into Shen. When Lead is vaporized with Sulfur, it is symbolically said to become Mercury – which raised and is fluidic – this is Spirit. When this Spirit is refined, it is said to become Gold – the Elixir of Immortality – itself a symbol of the immortal energy of the Living Cosmos. This Gold transmutes, or degenerates, over time, back into generative force, or Sulfur, and the Numinous Cycle of Life Force starts over.

Thus there is a degeneration and regeneration of Nature, what we may consider the living cycle of Acausal Energy and Causal Substance. The Acausal and Causal are not two separate events or phenomena. They are a cycle of a single Nature of what is the Living Cosmos.

The top portion of the trident also forms the Greek letter Sigma, which is the First letter in the Greek word: Seirios – the Dogstar – Sirius. The word seirios means burning or white hot, as in iron so hot it is white. Thus the Dogstar in 352 is referred to as the White Star. The top shape of the Trident also forms the letter “W” which alludes to the Sirius as the White Star. Sirius is the first board of the Star Game.

The Sickle is a symbol of the planet Saturn. It’s shape alludes to the form of an “S” which is the first letter in Star. The trident and Sickle together forms a WS which stands for White Star.

Saturn represents the star Naos in the Star Game, which is the last board. In the book NAOS we also learn that Saturn represents the 7 Spheres of the Tree of Wyrd. Being associated with the number 7, the Sickle is thus also a symbol of the Seven Fold Path, the Seven Grades of the ONA, and the Seven boards of the Star Game.

The god-form or archetype Saturn was a god of the Harvest and Corn, thus the Sickle, representing a reaping or harvest of Fruition or of what has bore fruit. Saturn is also equated with Chronos, or Time. Together the symbolism here represents what is known as Chronomorphosis or Aeonics: which is basically the magic of “sowing seeds now,” and utilizing Time, to grow such thought/memetic seeds, which will grow into something physical that bares fruit – causal manifestation or real world results – ready for the harvest.

The Sickle, of course also alludes to sacrifice, culling, and opfer; which is an essential aspect of the Order of Nine Angles. It is also a symbol of Wyrd: the weaving of our acausal thoughts, emotions, and force of action into causal results. Thus the Sickle represents the Causal, or manifested world of phenomena.

From a more aeonic angle the Trident represents the destruction of the age of Pisces – the old aeon, and everything related to the old aeon. In ancient cultures, the trident was a tool used to spear fish. The Sickle of Saturn alludes to and reminds us of the Golden Age of Saturn, which is the end goal of the social – “civilizational” – alchemy of the Order of Nine Angles.

Thus, the Trident represents both an alchemy of the individual through which process the Initiate becomes a new type of human being; but it also represents the social alchemy of turning the Lead of the old aeon into a Golden Age. These are both the two basic and essential objectives of the Order of Nine Angles. LXIV:OV
