On this, the 85th anniversary of The Wizard of Oz‘s theatrical debut, August 25th, 1939, here is a freebie from Cinema Symbolism 4 (and Cinema Symbolism OZ) linking the film to Choronzon, a demon critical in John Dee’s (1527-1608) Enochian system and Aleister Crowley’s (1875-1947) gematria. The designer of the Ruby Slippers was MGM’s most famous costumer, Adrian, who was born on March 3rd, ’03, which is 333, Master Therion’s number for the Dweller in the Abyss.

Rob makes his first appearance on the most excellent podcast Codega’s Codex of Curiosities analyzing occult themes and undercurrents in film and, more importantly, everyone’s favorite topic, the Crowleyan Rainbow-OZ death curse. Rob also talks pop culture predicting 9/11, which is more a supernatural event than a manmade event horizon. Enjoy!
777. Useful in a similar way, as affirming that the Unity is the Qliphoth [the demonic forces of the Kabbalah marshalled]. But a dangerous tool, especially as it represents the flaming sword that drove Man out of Eden. A burnt child dreads the fire. “The devils also believe, and tremble.” Worse than useless unless you have it by the hilt. Also 777 is the grand scale of 7, and this is useless to anyone who has not yet awakened the Kundalini, the female magical soul. Note 7 as the meeting-place of 3, the Mother, and 10, the Daughter, whence Netzach is the Woman, married but no more. – Aleister Crowley, 777 and other Qabalistic Writings of Aleister Crowley, 1909.
The Ladybird publication of The Wizard of Oz (Read It Yourself edition) is part of Series 777, naturally.
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.

Oz Park in Chicago (so named in 1976 because L. Frank Baum penned The Wizard of Oz nearby) sits on 13.32 acres, and 1332 = 666 x 2, or Aleister Crowley doubled. Cinema Symbolism 4 coming soon…

Here we go again. Baphomet’s hoof prints: Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge opened in ’77, collapsed on March 26, 2024, a date with an ordinal value of 77,[1] syncing with the first DVD release (MGM/Turner) of The Wizard of Oz on March 26, 1997, and the Patapsco River (the waterway the wreckage impeded) finally opened 77 days later on June 10, 2024. The Dark Mother hides herself (as she always does): the bridge’s global coordinates were 39° 13’ 1” N, 76° 31’ 42” W, and after its collapse, all traffic on I-695’s Inner Loop (the Baltimore Beltway) off-ramped at Exit 42 (MD 151/North Point Blvd). Choronzon also made an appearance: the incident caused jobs to dry up immediately for Charm City’s longshoreman; their Baltimore local is Union #333. More forthcoming….
