[Grigori]

64. Oh! thou art overcome: we are upon thee; our delight is all over thee: hail! hail: prophet of Nu! prophet of Had! prophet of Ra-Hoor-Khu! Now rejoice! now come in our splendour & rapture! Come in our passionate peace, & write sweet words for the Kings!

The Angel is Nuit, Hadit, and Ra-Hoor-Khuit.

To me this verse is the consumation of previous verse. The pairs of opposites we saw last time have united. So here he have the K&C of HGA presented under the guise of the Thelemic pantheon.

Glory to Thee, eternal Sun,
Thou One in Three, Thou Three in One!

This seems a hard verse to comment much on, the main thing that stood out to me is that is seems to show all 3 deities acting as one, or simultaneously "upon" the prophet.

It's also very celebratory, joyous and jubilant. It's like being together has suddenly amped their energy and the joy of existence up to 11 on the dial.

It's very . . . cult-like, really.

This verse is like a welcoming into the new aeon and all that it will bring. The energies of the new era are taking shape in the physical and astral worlds.

Just like the letter Shin?

I've toyed with the idea that this verse is symbolic of the crowning of the four perfected elements with spirit. This could be suggested by the verse number 64. 60 - Samekh - Art, the perfecting of the four elements. And 4 - Daleth - Empress as the Shekinah.

Delight - Spirit

Passion - Fire

Peace - Earth

Splendour - Water

Rapture - Air
