A Ritual for the Consecration of the Temple of Fire
Enochian Temples:
A Ritual for the Consecration of the Temple of the
Fire Tablet.
by Benjamin Rowe, Copyright 1988, 1992
Introduction
This ritual consecration is to be used with an astral Temple built according to the plan described in the
chapbook
Enochian Temples
and the supplemental paper titled
The Lower Temple.
Readers unfamiliar
with the Temple system and its symbolism should obtain and study those documents before making use
of the ritual presented here.
This current ritual is divided into five parts, the first including a general invocation of the aspect of God
ruling the Enochian system, a general invocation of the element of Fire, and an invocation and
consecration of those parts of the Temple derived from the Great Cross of the Fire Tablet. This is
followed by four sections for consecration of the parts of the Temple built from the Lesser Angles. Once
the Temple has been built and fully charged, each section can be used independently for invocation of the
forces it refers to. Further details will be mentioned in the "Symbols and Visualizations" section.
In any ritual of this length, ninety percent of its effectiveness is in the preparation beforehand. At the
least, the magician should be thoroughly familiar with the design of the Temple, and able to maintain an
unwavering image of it in his astral vision throughout the work. The power of the work will increase
greatly if the magician takes the time to memorize the Keys and the other words, gestures, and
visualizations and rehearses them several times before using the ritual with full invocatory intent. One
can not expect the Enochian entities to appreciate a poorly-rehearsed ritual; no more than actors can
expect an audience to appreciate a play if they must continually stop to look up their lines.
Since the work makes use of the powerful Enochian names, it is to be expected that some response may
be produced even during rehearsals. These effects should be neither rejected nor encouraged, but simply
disregarded until the practice session is concluded.
The Words And Gestures
0. The place of the working is astral. The area should be seen as a flat, empty plain, on which are
inscribed four tangent circles, representing the four elements in the quarters, with a fifth circle in the
middle intersecting the centers of all the others. From a height, these five circles can be seen to be within
the central circle of a huge Enochian sigil of Fire, enscribed on the plain in the appropriate colors. The
sky is vermilion, the plain itself of a deeper red with flashing streaks of orange-red and gold.

A Ritual for the Consecration of the Temple of Fire
The Consecration of the Hall of the Gods.
1. Banish using the pentagram and hexagram rituals, or the Greater Ritual of the Pentagram alone.
2. Take the cup of purifying water, and sprinkle it to the four quarters, beginning with the south, saying,
"From the waters of Nuit did all things arise. In the waters of Nuit do all things live and have their being.
To the waters of Nuit shall all things return." The magician shall lastly sprinkle himself with the waters.
3. Take the flame of consecrating fire, and cast it towards the four quarters, saying, "The fires of Had did
stir the waters, raising all things to appearance. The fires of Had move all things in their courses. In the
fires of Had is the universe destroyed." Lastly the magician shall gesture towards himself with the flame.
4. Move to the center of the circle of working, and face the south, saying, "As Heru-Ra-Ha do I stand in
the midst of their union."
5. Face the east, and perform the exordium:
"O, Most Just God, who has made the tablets to appear for the eyes of men! Blessed be ye in
the eyes of those greater creators who see us both together. Ye who have taken the world,
and divided it into its several parts, and given each a name and number. Blessed be ye in the
eyes of all creators!
"Your art surpasses the stars in beauty, and fills my heart with comfort and gladness. The
light of your creation blinds me, yet withall do my eyes see a beauty greater yet beyond your
forms and structures.
"Give to all of your light, Iad Balt. Give to all of your light, so that men may walk with their
brothers the gods.
"Come ye, o creator-god, bless this one who in his own creations is your Will incarnate. Be
unto me as the light in the soul. Be unto me as the comfort of earth. Be unto me as the gods
of livingness and breath within me.
"Come ye, come ye, come ye, o creator-god, and bless and aid this man who is your disciple
in the arts!"
6. Vibrate the first Enochian Key, invoking the God-name BITOM from the Tablet of Union.
7. Perform a preliminary invocation of the element Fire. The G.D. "Opening of the Temple in the Grade
of 4=7 keeps the appropriate mood:
Sign of Thoum-aesh-neith.
Knock 333-1-333.
Say: "Let us adore the Lord and King of Fire!"
"IHVH TzBAOTh! Blessed by thou! The Leader of Armies is Thy Name!"
Invoking pentagram of Spirit.
"AHIH, AGLA, BITOM!"

At the end of the ritual, continue by saying:

Light come with you, and bless this Temple of Fire that I build here. By the sacred Name
BITOM do I call the Spirit of Fire to come in attendance on the consecration of this
Temple."
9. Vibrate the sixth Enochian Key.
10. Move to the South side of the circle, and stand in the Sign of the Enterer.
"OIP TEAA PDOCE, banner on the heights of the Temple! Sphere of Nuit mirrored in the
element of Fire! In whom the Archer, the Lion, and the Ram keep their triune truce! Let the
light flow in from above, and let it illuminate the King's abode in all its brilliance and
flashing glory!"
Perform the sign of Harpocrates.
11. Move to the north of the circle, and stand facing south. Draw the hexagram of Sol at the center of the
circle.
"EDLPRNAA, thou mighty King of the Tablet of Fire! Show before men that shower of
brilliance, that leaping changeful light that is yours! At the peak of the temple do thou stand,
lighting the Temple both within and without! Thou art a Burning Sun to the wicked, and a

Flame of Hope to the Righteous. Come thou, EDLPRNAA, burn in the heart of the temple
as the soul burns in the heart of man."
12. Move to the center of the circle, still facing south. Say:
"Seniors of Fire, I invoke you! You, who are the cross become the star become the wheel!
You, who are the comfort of man and the directors of Fire within man's realm! You, who
support the roof of the Temple, and sit upon your seats within the upper hall, changing the
heat of the sun into the Waters of Life for man to drink! Your waters hide the core of the
Temple, yet they reveal its truths in their flowing, rippling passage."
"Hear me, and come unto this temple in your power, you Seniors of Fire! Be as a sweet wine
for the mouths of the priests and worshipers!"
Go to the north-northwest edge of the circle, and draw the hexagram of Jupiter before invoking
ADOEOET. Move from there clockwise around the circle in 60- degree intervals, and draw the
appropriate hexagram for each Senior as "he" or "she" is invoked.
North-northwest:
"Hear me, ADOEOET, Fire of Jove, Lesser King who binds all together!
North-northeast:
"Hear me, ALNDVOD, coolly flaming mother, brilliance of night!
East:
"Hear me, AAPDOCE, priestess burning with the Fires of Love!
South-southeast:
"Hear me, ARINNAP, you who strain at your limits!
South-southwest:
"Hear me, ANODOIN, gay, flashing, childlike in your quickness!
West:
"Hear me, AAETPIO, consummate warrior, Spear of the Gods!
Complete the invocation of the Seniors:
"Come all ye, and visit this Temple! Make for it a sturdy roof, and dwell therein as the
Waters of the Gods, Life extended and given Form."
13. Move to the center of the circle.
"The Hall of the Gods within the Temple of Fire has been duly consecrated, and the Lives of
the Gods dwell therein. Let them ever give to the man in the lower Temple that Light which
is theirs, that he might come to know himself as one of them."

Angle.
