Diagrams

From AnonMoos' talk page:

I'm curious about the creation of these images. What software did you use? I do similar things, but with a very Goldbergesque collection of tools. Oh, and I appreciate your comments my Kabbalah question. Odd that such an apparently committed Christian should know about the Rose Cross Lamen.--◀Puck^talk▶ 21:04, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

I have an interest in symbols; I did all those on the Triple Goddess page. Shield of the Trinity is the only "big" article which I did completely from scratch. The diagrams in "Shield of the Trinity" were done in vector format, which can then be rendered to an image of any size desired. Occasionally I use vector editor software, but for diagrams composed mostly of simple abstract geometric shapes (with little "drawing" involved as such), I often do hand-written PostScript code. On some Wikipedia image pages I include the PostScript source, such as at Image:St-Faith-Arms.png. PostScript can be converted to PDF, and rendered to a raster image in a number of ways.

By the way, due to the nature of Hebrew orthography and morphological structure (see Triconsonantal root), a significant percentage of sequences of three random Hebrew letters will be meaningful Hebrew words. AnonMoos 03:11, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the pointer. I had no idea PostScript editable as plain text. I've had experience writing DXF files by hand and generating graphics with routines in Basic and C so this looks like a promising tool. What is a good general purpose application for importing and exporting PostScript? I have CadStd Lite. It will export PostScript, but not import it.

Thanks for Triliteral, too. It explains a lot. And here I was thinking it was because God speaks Hebrew. ;-)--◀Puck^talk▶ 14:41, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

Offering of friendship

I wanted to add to my recent comments at Talk:Wicca#Citation of sources that I look forward to further discussions with you - you seem well established here as a regular, and I think I may have caught the wikipedia bug too, so we should run into each other a bit. I value and appreciate your contributions to wikipedia - you seem thorough and knowledgable, and people who have these qualities as well as the motivation to actually do something with their knowledge are rare as hens' teeth. I'm sure at times we'll disagree on various points (though I don't actually think we have yet), but when that happens let it not be us who are in conflict, let it be but our references and our supporting authors who roll up their shirt-sleeves and bare their teeth at each other, while we sit at the ring-side and exchange bets on who'll win over a pint of beer. And hey, I never mind losing a game well played. We have much to share: Blessed Be. Fuzzypeg 00:50, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

I appreciate your kind words. When I first started editing Wikipedia I told myself I was going to avoid the Wicca article like the plague. I knew from my experience on various Pagan Usenet groups, like alt.religion.wicca and alt.witchcraft, and from real life experiences with various Pagan groups in the Washington, D.C. area that it could be a minefield. As a friend of mine once said, “Christians don't need to attack us, we do a fine job of that ourselves.”

you seem well established here as a regular

Well, it looks like my first contribution was only about three days before yours.

I think I may have caught the wikipedia bug too

Yeah, it's definitely an addiction. It's especially bad for me because I'm currently unemployed and I have way too much time to spend at it.

you seem thorough and knowledgable, and people who have these qualities as well as the motivation to actually do something with their knowledge are rare as hens' teeth.

Stop it, I'm blushing.

I have discovered the combination of having people metaphorically looking over my shoulder with me not wanting to look like an idiot has caused me to be very careful about being able to back up what I say. It's a good source of discipline in the best sense of the word. I'm currently working on an biographical article about Christian Knorr Von Rosenroth—he did the Latin translation of the Zohar that S.L. MacGregor used for the Kabbalah Unveiled. You can see what I've done so far here. I've run into a wall for now because most of the source material is in German[1] [2], a language I don't speak or read. I've been using Google's translation service, but it is a bit limited [3] [4]. I've asked my bother-in-law, who does speak German, to help a bit and I've been in contact via e-mail with an organization in Germany dedicated to Knorr. They are trying to get me connected to members who speak English. It is slow work. That I know of the is very little information about him in English, either online or in the real world. If I pull this one off it will be a real contribution, not just to Wikipedia, but to the English speaking world in general—especially students of the occult. That's a heady feeling.

If you've looked at my contributions you've see my interests run more toward Qabalah and Thelema. My introduction to Paganism was through Wicca and I still identify myself that way, but I find myself more and more drawn to ceremonialism and the Western mysteries in the Golden Dawn tradition. Wicca is very satisfying on an emotional level, but the depth and breadth of ceremonial magick, and my own hunger for spiritual transformation is leading me inevitably to journey across the Abyss. The people who have charted that path before me all seem to come out of the Hermetic tradition. Aleister Crowley and Israel Regardie in particular seem to have been writing with me in mind. At least it seems that way to me.

I'm sure we'll run across each other as we fritter away our time here. The opportunity for cataloging information about the Pagan tradition on Wikipedia is fantastic. It's nice to have a friendly companion on the way.--◀Puck^talk▶ 06:04, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Well, if you're not a regular, you've certainly been putting in a lot of unemployment hours in the last few weeks.

Have you come across many other translations of the Zohar to English? I've been trying to track down an English translation from one of the Hebrew versions by a man named Michael Freedman (Michael Tyne Corbold). Probably a long shot.

I have a couple of big projects on my plate too. I'm trying to write this critique of Hutton, which, to do it any justice, requires quite a lot of reading. I'm also trying to put together a booklet that collects material relating to European Goddess-worship from antiquity to modern day (mostly in modern folklore) and traces some of the points of connection. It's quite different from what you read about in books on Wicca. That's a project that's been going for a few years now, actually... grrr... And I'm setting up a temple - it's been consecrated for 6 months now, but the preparation began two years ago. I'm currently oscillating between the computer, the fridge, the shower and the temple (where I've been painting a wall-size rose cross). My oscillations are about to slow down now though, and settle me into bed. Work in the morning for me (sigh). Fuzzypeg 10:48, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Wicca, Winston Churchill, and Acts of Parliament

my response to your comments at my talk page

From P.MacUidhir's talk page and my response:

Witchcraft Act

I'm not exactly sure what you meant by pointing the first paragraph of Wicca to something more specific than the generic Wikipedia page.

I meant that I want to reference the relevant Acts of Parliament to which it is referring rather than the rather odd Witchcraft Act page.

→ P.MacUidhir (t) (c) 20:25, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Perhaps if it were just reworded to say something like after the repeal of the last British Witchcraft Act, but I wasn't sure if that was what you were getting at. So, I went looking for any information I could find and I stumbled across this. I don't think it is really useful in the current context, but I found it amusing to say the least. I thought you might as well. I never really knew the story behind why the Witchcraft act was repealed and I especially didn't know who we have to thank.--◀Puck^talk▶ 12:51, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Seems like there is a lot of speculation and otherwise unverified/unverifiable information at that link... but if it is all true, then I agree, it is a rather hilarious way of getting that Act tossed into the wastebin of history!

→ P.MacUidhir (t) (c) 20:25, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

According to Ronald Hutton (Triumph of the Moon, p. 107), the Witchcraft act of 1736 was reinforced by the Vagrancy Act of 1824 and replaced by the Fraudulent Mediums Act of 1951.

I found the text of the 1736 act here, here and here.

The Fraudulent Mediums Act of 1951 is here: here

I have not been able to find the text of the Vagrancy Act of 1824, but I did find some links to recent UK legislation that amended it here. I hope this helps.--◀Puck^talk▶ 23:36, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Interesting, yes- but we have to use reliable sources for cites in articles. Most of those links are not authoritative as far as Acts of Parliament are concerned. I can find the 1951 act in dozens of places using Google, but all of them are on unreliable websites in the sense of accurate reproduction of the text of British laws. The last link, though, on the amending of the Vagrancy Act of 1824- that may prove useful in itself, yes. Good find there. If you can figure a way to use it as a cite in the main Wicca article, I say go for it.

→ P.MacUidhir (t) (c) 23:43, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

John S.

The citation you give about that case is awfully true. I wonder what should I do if I discovered that everyone knows that I am in the papers. --Harvestman

Which cite? the one to John_Seigenthaler_Sr._Wikipedia_biography_controversy or one of my Yahoo message board posts? And I don't really understand the second part at all. Are you actually asking me for a response or is it just a rhetorical question? I'm not criticizing you or anything, I'm just confused.--◀Puck^talk▶ 13:47, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

Sorry for that confusion, answer about your reactions on such a case if you find it fit. I read that text and my reaction was emotional as well as rhetorical as you say. The text on your page is : "nobody changed it because nobody read it because nobody gave a rat's ass about an obscure nobody", concerning the John S. problem. --Harvestman

Well, my overall reaction to the case was summed up in the rest of my message on Yahoo: "He is now more well known for that offending article and his whining about it than for anything he might have accomplished in his otherwise unremarkable life." [5] I suspect that at least part of his motivation for raising such a fuss in the first place was that the error went so long without being detected. He may have felt a bit stung by the fact that nobody noticed. If he were actually an important historical figure, rather than a footnote, someone would have noticed almost immediately. The fact that no one did is an indication that no one was interested in him. Now, however, he is famous, which is why I think that was part of his motivation.--◀Puck^talk▶ 23:40, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

I am sorry i asked. I didn't know that you were obsessed with the Sepher Yetzirah.

say, what is the Sepher Yetzirah? Chef Clover 21:33, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

almost neutral point of view on religious beliefs

I'm not holding i against you but i oppose cults and stuff like that, and disagree with their beliefs. I, myself, am perfectly fine with being part of a non-occult Roman Catholic Church and believing that aliens created crop circles (seriously, i do! I'm not being a fool!). But hey! Everyone can believe what they want to believe,like the Roman Catholic Church, or Sufism, or Raëlism, or whatever. Each to his/her own. That's what makes lives more interesting and gives us a reason to live. It's not a problem for me, unless the cult is extremely radical. Chef Clover 22:43, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

Re: Hebrew questions

1. If the basic form of a Hebrew word is prefixed by bet it means at,with,in, etc., sort of a generic preposition, such as the Spanish en.

True.

2. If it is prefixed with he it is the definite article

True.

שיח - tree השיח - the tree

Not quite. I would translate it as "bush" or "shrub".

3. If a word is prefixed with vau it means and.

True.

4. If it is prefixed by lamed it is the verbial, or infinitive form.

True, but also means "to" as destination, or as purpose.

5. The sufix yod mem is the plural form of a word.

Yes, but so is the suffix vau-tau, depending on the gender of the plural form.

I have notice some words end with yod or yod tau. What is the significance of that? It appears to be the adjective and adverbial form, but I am not certain because sometimes it also seem like its plural.

These endings have different functions. When appended to a noun, yod-tau is often a diminuative form, so:

כף - table spoon, כפית - teaspoon. I think translating the "Sefer Yetzirah" as your first major translation project may be a bit too ambitious... Owen× ☎ 16:11, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Moon River Wicca

Hi, My name is Amethyst TygerMoon and I am the Co-Founder of Moon River Wicca. Yes, we are baced in Winchester but I do not see this as a reason to not be note worthy, we are a tradition of wicca, we offer training to those who would otherwise be stuck reading books and learning on their own and this is a valuable service. we are also about to publish the first of 5 books in the summer, the first 3 books will accompany the 3 levels of initiation which we teach, and the other 2 books will be a complete guide to correspondances and a book of pagan poetry. If you still feel that we are not worthy of wikipedia then that is fine, but I do feel that every body needs to start somewhere. as to our web site, we are in the process of building it at the moment which is why there is nothing there, as we own the name but have not gone live yet. Please do contact me either at info@moonriver.co.uk or at info@thegaiatree.co.uk if you have any further questions.

as to this being the only artical we have submitted to Wikipedia that is becasue I only just figured out how to add stuff, I have been using and recommending this site for ages and would like to add more in the future.

That lot of Speedy Messages

Is because you edited the English Wikipedia page (by adding a category). As the image is actually on Commons, the page on en-wikipedia should be blank. The uncategorised template is on the Commons page, ideally you need to add categories to the Commons image pages. The pages on en-wikipedia have now all been deleted - so the Commons image shows through just OK. (Your images are still fine!)  Ronhjones  ^(Talk) 20:50, 14 December 2009 (UTC)

Qabalah section and the significance of the 24 triplets you listed

I was examining the 24 triplets you wrote on the page and I was trying to figure out the meaning of it. It made no sense to me, a savvy Kabbalist, so I typed it into google and only found pages on the net that were authorized by you and nobody else was mentioning anything about these letter combinations. After looking a bit closer I noticed your letter combinations corresponded the diagram with the 3 mother, 7 double, and 12 simple letters so I tried meditating on it along with letter combinations you provided which are 24 but I found it lacking. Why only 24 triplets? Are words like ארי (lion) and אתה (you) not considered valid letter combinations by your system? This diagram for instance has the letters positioned slightly different than your diagram. Don't get me wrong, both are valid diagrams. The point is to understand that the letters aren't stationary. The Zohar speaks many times of the letters rotating and "flying" around to form different permutations at different times. The diagram would be better of coarse if it were animated so that the inner, middle, and outer wheels could spin and allow for all possible permutations to be formed. Although that would be unnecessary. Thus, if my math is correct, instead of 24 triplets, you'd compute 12*7*3 and end up with 252 triplets. I'm not sure the significance of this number though, if any. If you have any input you can provide concerning your understanding of the 3 mother letters and the formation of these triplets and what they mean, enlighten me. I'm open to new ideas if you have any. Is there any particular reason you only listed 24 of these permutations or was it a misunderstanding from the diagram itself which is based on Sefer Yetzirah? --Thelazyleo (talk) 19:24, 10 September 2012 (UTC)

Hebrew in the LBRP diagram

Hi! I was just reading about the LBRP and I saw your diagram, which is lovely by the way. I think I noticed a couple of errors. "ateh" and "malkut" have (Hebrew) M substituted for T. I don't know anything about editing SVGs, or really even Hebrew, so I'm leery of doing it myself. I left a note on the page, then I thought, maybe go right to the source. Anyway, I hope you're well and again, cool diagram. Cmpashayan (talk) 10:59, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
