Robert W. Sullivan IV

The number 42 is the Great Number of the Curse. – Aleister Crowley, Liber CCCXXXIII, 1913

This curse loves to overlap. – Robert W. Sullivan IV

On September 11th, 2001, Thelemic Flight 93’s departure from Newark was delayed 42 minutes due to heavy airport congestion, and 42-year-old Terry Butler witnessed its downing while working at Stoystown Auto Wreckers near Shanksville, Pennsylvania. Years later, another Key Stone State Butler, this time Butler, Pennsylvania, which has a value of 77 using Pythagorean reduction,[1] the scene of a failed assassination attempt on President Trump. It is worth noting that Trump World Tower in New York City measures 77 by 144 feet (its luxury suite is 77B); the latter number is 12², the Apocalyptic Book of Revelation’s pervasive number, and per Aleister Crowley (1875-1947), signifying the twelve houses of the zodiac, i.e., the termination of the Abrahamic Faiths in favor of the Aeon of Horus, indicated by the skyscraper’s 72 floors, to wit the Precession of the Equinoxes.[2] Unsurprisingly, Butler syncs with four other Butlers; the first is Butler Haynes Park in Illinois, the state where Lyman Frank Baum wrote The Wizard of Oz, the venue for the Prairie State’s 2024’s Wizard of Oz festival. The second is broadcast performer Daws Butler (1916-1988), who voiced both the Scarecrow and Oz the Great and Powerful on the television show Off to See the Wizard (1967-1968). The third is William Butler Yeats (1865-1939), who Master Therion combated using supernatural forces, and the fourth is overlap, one of the hex’s favorite fingerprints: one of first anti-Chinese coronavirus isolation images emerged from Columbia University’s Butler Library in February 2020, right before COVID-19 struck the United States.[3] The Dark Mother makes a cameo (as she always does): Trump’s would-be assassin was from and lived 42 miles from Butler in Bethel Park, Pennsylvania; the latter’s tallest point is Rocky Ridge in the southwestern area, which is 420 meters high, and the borough is 93% Caucasian,[4] harkening back to the doomed Shanksville flight. Corey Comperatore (1974-2024), who was killed in the ambush, was a member of Cabot Church, and C is the third letter of the alphabet, giving us our daisy chain of 3s, IDing Choronzon’s hidden hand. Of Course, Cabot Church is located at 707 (77 minus the zero) Winfield Road. Cinema Symbolism OZ coming soon…

Easter egg: there were 22 Secret Service Agents at the rally in Butler, and 22 signifies the number of letters in the Hebrew Alphabet, the 22 cards of the Major Arcana and paths of the Tree of Life/Wisdom, suggesting completion of imperfection and fatal finality per Crowley, the dreaded dyad at play with the kabalistic shells or Kelippot.

[1] B/2 + u/3 + t/2 + l/3 + e/5 + r/9 = 24, P/7 + e/5 + n/5 + n/5 + s/1 + y/7 + l/3 + v/4 + a/1 + n/5 + i/9 + a/1 = 53; 24 + 53 = 77.
