Anyone remember this movie???

eXistenZ (1999)

The Earth Pentacle, one of the elemental “weapons” or tools of an Adept in the Golden Dawn system of magic.

About the perimeter are the Hebrew names Adonai ha-Aretz (“Lord of Earth”), Auriel (the name of an archangel, meaning “Light of God”), Phorlakh (the name of the angel of elemental earth), Kerub (an order of angels), Phrat (one of four mythical rivers of Eden), Tzaphon (“North”) and Aretz (“Earth”).

The sigils following each name are derived from that name using the Rose Cross method of sigilisation. The remaining space is for the magical motto of the Adept.

The combination of all these symbols attracts the Spirit or Essence of Earth to this Sigil/Seal/Pentacle.

The center shows the Holy Hexagram, the Union of the upward Triangle of Male/Fire/Sun/Sulphur and the downward Triangle of Female/Water/Moon/Mercury.

The coloured background shows the Four Elemental Colours of the Sphere of Malkuth (מלכות), the Kingdom of the Material World of Assiah, and also known as the Bride.

The Names of God associated with Malkuth are Adonai Melekh (”Lord King”) and Adonai ha-Arets (”Lord of the Earth”). The Archangel of this sphere is Sandalphon. The Ishim (Souls of Fire) is the Angelic order associated with Malkuth.

The Qliphah of Malkuth is represented by the daemonic order Nehemoth, ruled by the Archdemon Naamah. Symbols associated with this sphere are a Bride (a young woman on a throne with a veil over her face c.f. “Veil of Isis”) and a double cubed altar.

Where Binah is known as the Superior Mother, Malkuth is referred to as the Inferior Mother. It is also referred to as the Bride of Microprosopos, where the Macroprosopos is Kether.

Here “Microprosopus” (”Small Face”) refers to the combination of the Sephirah of Chesed, Gevurah, Tiphereth, Netzach, Hod and Yesod.
