from the Grady Project:

The Gnome

There is a Gnome

In the iron mountains of the western desert

Where the jagged spires of the granite rimrock

Come ripping up through the corroded foothills

And he lives in these iron mountains

This Gnome

And he plays on the flame seared plains below

With his trails of dust and his twisting thermals

That begin nowhere and end in swirling nothingness

And he swims over the heat choked ravines

Flowing ever and around the blistering hearth stones

The chipped and glowing walls of the open hearth stones

This Gnome--whose furnace breath

Is the rippling heat of the bake oven

Pulsing and shimmering on the desert floor

And in whose cupped and twisted hands

The molten hyalesence

Of the mirage is prisoned

And he feeds on the fires in his crucible

This Gnome

Feeding and swimming in the fluid seas of the Flame Winds

In the viscous, liquid heat of the burning Flame Winds

Which lick the baked and scorching clay with tongues

Of fire that seem as serpent shappen flames

To bathe the nether islands of the sun

At their dire perihelion

And this amorphous Gnome

Like some smoke-pillared djinn a god evoked

To stand the watch of Cerberus

Above the river Phlegethon--has found

Beneath the slabs of basalt that are split

And rivened by the long diurnal siege

A noduled grain mercuric that had seeped

And sweated from the smelt of cinnabar

This Gnome--this entity--this eidolon

Self-procreate of fire and flame and heat

This Gnome

From the Outbasket

Over the years, many people have asked how to pronounce the Hebrew words associated with the Tree of Life and with the Lesser Pentagram Ritual. It's one thing to get help in person, but by the printed word it's quite another matter entirely. It can be done. Here is the stuff of many "New Years'" resolutions for magicians and qabalists alike. Good luck, and don't sprain your face!

PRONUNCIATION GUIDE

to Sephiroth, Letters and Divine Names used on the Tree of Life,
with some additions for the Lesser Pentagram Ritual.

There are two common methods for pronouncing Hebrew, the Ashkenazic or German style and the Sephardic or Spanish style. The suggestions given below are for Sephardic pronunciation. Sephardic is closer to ancient Hebrew than is Ashkenazic.

-oOo-

THE MOST COMMON NAMES OF THE SEPHIROTH:

First Sephira: KETER, Resh Taw Kaf , meaning "Crown.
Ke-ter --- e as in met. Accent first syllable.

Second Sephira: CHOKMAH, Hay Mem Kaf Chet , meaning "Wisdom".
Chok-Ma --- ch is a cough-like sound. o like in born. a like in father.

Accent last syllable.

Third Sephira: BINAH, Hay Nun Yod Bet , meaning "Understanding"
Bi-Na --- i like in police. a like in father.

Accent last syllable.

The Latent Sephira: DA'AT, Taw Ayin Dalet , meaning "Knowledge".
Da-at --- a double "a" sound like that in bard. These two "a" sounds are

separated by a "glottal stop", a sudden interruption of breath

by very brief closing of the epiglottis. This unique sound is

not used in English speech, but is sometimes used in German and

in many other languages. When the Letter Ayin occurs in the

middle of words, it almost always requires this effect.

Accent the first syllable.

Fourth Sephira: CHESED, Dalet Samekh Chet , meaning "Mercy".
Che-sed --- Ch is a cough-like sound. Both e's are like in met.

Accent first syllable.

Fifth Sephira: GEBURAH, Hay Resh Vau Bet Gimel , meaning "Severity".
Ge-boo-Ra --- e as the first in believe. oo as in moon. a as in father.

Accent last syllable.

Sixth Sephira: TIPHERET, Taw Resh Aleph Peh Taw , meaning "Beauty".
Tip-E-ret --- i like in bit. Both e's like in met. Accent mid syllable.

Seventh Sephira: NETZACH, Chet Tzaddi Nun , meaning "Victory through Endurance".
Ne-tzach --- e as in met. a as in bard. ch like ck in "ICK!"

(This ch sound is not in standard English).

Accent the first syllable.

Eighth Sephira: HOD, Dalet Vau Hay , meaning "Glory".
Hod --- o like in bore.

Ninth Sephira: YESOD, Dalet Vau Samekh Yod , meaning "foundation".
Ye-Sod --- e like the first e in believe. o like in bore.

The last syllable should be louder.

Tenth Sephira: MALKUT, Taw Vau Kaf Lamed Mem , meaning "Kingdom".

Mal-Koot --- a as in bard. oo as in moon. Last syllable accent.

-oOo-

ALEPH, Peh-final Lamed Aleph , meaning "Ox".
A-lef --- A like in father. e like in met. Accent the first syllable.

HEH, Aleph Hay , meaning "Air Hole".
He --- e like in bet.

Note: There are several other Hebrew spellings for this letter, but they all have the same

pronunciation. Unusual ways- to spell the letters of Tetragrammaton are employed in

Qabalah to obtain Gematria for the numbers of the four Qabalistic worlds. That subject

is beyond the present topic, but can be taken up later if there is interest.

VAU, Vau Vau , meaning "Nail".
Vav --- Just like English "Wow" except use an a like in father in place of the "o"

ZAIN, Nun-final Yod Zain , meaning "Sword".
Za-yin --- a like in bard. i like in bit. Accent the first syllable.

CHET, Taw Yod Chet , meaning "Fence".

KOPH, Peh-final Kaf , meaning "Closed Hand".
Kaf --- a like in father.

LAMED, Dalet Mem Lamed , meaning "Ox Goad".
La-med --- a like in father. e like in met. Accent the first syllable.

MEM, Mem-final Mem or Yod Mem , meaning "Water".
Mem or Meym --- e like in bet.

NUN, Nun-final Vau Nun , meaning "Fish".
Noon --- just like the English "Noon".

SAMEKH, Kaf-final Mem Samekh , meaning "Prop".
Sa-mekh --- a like in bard. e like in met. Accent the first syllable.

AYIN, Nun-final Yod Ayin , meaning "Eye".
A-yin --- A like in bard, but with a glottal stop, not normal to English,

from an interruption of breath. Y like in yes. i like in bit.

Alternatively:
Ye-Voh --- e like in met. o like in born. V and accent unchanged. --- meaning "She is."
Elo-Him --- E as in met but shorter. o as in bore. i as in police.

Accent last syllable in both words.

Note: Pronunciation of Tetragrammaton with Elohim traditionally uses the vowel points of

Elohim. Otherwise, the vowel points of Adonai are used.

EL, Lamed Aleph , meaning "HE IS GREAT"
El --- E as in met.

ELOHIM GIBOR, Resh Vau Bet Gimel Mem-final Yod Hay Lamed Aleph , meaning "THE MALE AND FEMALE

meaning "HE/SHE IS DEITY & KNOWLEDGE"
Ye-ho-Vah --- e like first in believe. o like in bore. a like in father.

Both alternatives have the V like an English "Wah" sound.

Both accent on the third syllable.
Elo-Ha --- E like in met but shorter. o like in bore. a like in bard.

Accent last syllable.
Ve-Da-at --- e like first e in believe. Both s's like in bard, but see

the note above on "Da'at" for the necessary glottal stop.

Middle syllable accented.

Note: When the vowel points of Adonai are used to pronounce the Tetragrammaton,

it comes out "Jehovah" instead of "Yahweh".

JEHOVAH TZABAOT, Taw Vau Aleph Bet Tzaddi Hay Vau Hay Yod , meaning "HE/SHE IS SPLENDOR"
Ye-Ho-Vah or Ye-Ho-Voh, "He is" or "She is", respectively.

SHADDAI EL CHAI, Yod Chet Lamed Aleph Yod Dalet Shin , meaning "ALMIGHTY GOD LIVES

FOREVER"
Sad-Day --- First a like in father. Second a like in bard.

Accent last syllable.

-oOo-

HEBREW WORDS USED IN
THE LESSER BANISHING RITUAL OF THE PENTAGRAM.

ATEH,

, meaning "THINE" or "UNTO THEE"
At-Ta --- First a like in bard. Second a like in father.

Accent second syllable.

MALKUT, --- see above under Sephiroth.

Ve-GEBURAH, --- see above under Sephiroth and next entry for prefix.

Ve-GEDULAH, Hay Lamed Vau Dalet Gimel - Vau , meaning "AND THE GREATNESS"
Ve-ge-doo-La --- e's both like the first in believe. oo as in moon.

a as in father. Accent last syllable.

Note: This is an alternate name for Chesed, the fourth Sephira. Also, the Hebrew letter Vau

is equivalent to the English conjunction "and" when used at the front of a word.

Le-OLAHM, Mem-final Lamed Vau Ayin - Lamed , meaning "FOR ETERNITY" or "FOR ALL THAT EXISTS"
Le-a'a-o-La-m --- e as first in believe.

The "a'a" signifies a very light glottal stop; omit if too difficult.

o as in bore. a as in father. The "La" is accented, but the sound

should drop back to normal by the time you reach "m".

AMEN, Nun-final Mem Aleph , meaning an assertion of strong conviction.
Am-En --- a as in father. E as in bet. Accent last syllable.

Note: This word is used intact in English, but does not have quite the same religious

connotations in Hebrew. There is no actual English equivalent outside profanity and slang.

JEHOVAH, ADONAI, EHEIEH --- see above under Divine Names.

AGLA, Aleph Lamed Gimel Aleph , no direct meaning. This is a Noteriqon or mystical abbreviation of:

, Ateh Gibor Le-Olahm Adonai.

That in turn means: "Thou art mighty forever O'Lord".

Pronunciation is also cryptic, but using the initials of the

component words and their attendant vowel points, we get:
A-gi-le-A --- a as in bard. i as in bit. e as the first one in believe. A as in bard.

The last syllable should take the accent, but even that is undecided.

RAPHAEL, Lamed Aleph Peh Resh , meaning "GOD HEALS"
Re-Fa-El --- e as first one in believe. a as in father. e as in bet.

Accent the last two syllables.

GABRIEL, Lamed Aleph Yod Resh Bet Gimel , meaning "GOD IS MIGHTY"
Gab-Ri-El --- a as in bard. i as in police. E as in bet.

Accent the last two syllables.

MICHAEL, Lamed Aleph Kaf Yod Mem , meaning "LIKENESS OF GOD"
Mi-Ka-El --- i as in police. K like a light clearing of the throat.

a as in father. E as in bet. Accent the last two syllables.

URIEL, ARIEL, Lamed Aleph Yod Resh Vau Aleph , meaning "LIGHT OF GOD", or loosely, "Lucifer"

oo-Ri-El --- (The initial Aleph is silent --- no "a" sound here)

oo as in moon. i as in police. e as in bet.

Accent the last two syllables.

-oOo-

By now, the reader has had a chance to try these pronunciations, and is just possibly a bit discouraged. Actually, once a start has been made at book-taught pronunciation of Hebrew, the worst is over. Now, but not when you made your first attempt, there are a few simple tricks to getting the sounds put together right. First, do each syllable separately, as though they were distinct words. Second, try the accent by making the unaccented syllable words more quiet and the accent syllable word louder. Finally, build fluency by saying the entire word as a smooth sound instead of distinct syllables. Pick an English word to get the feel of this final stage. Take an English Dictionary, and practice putting words you already use together by the pronunciation guide just after the first listing of the word in the dictionary. You will find yourself making the same natural errors in accent and fluency with these common words that you are making with Hebrew. The "feel" of the clumsiness of the pronunciation is the same for English as it is for Hebrew. Likewise the "feel" of a well pronounced word is the same.

Example: Take the English word: "Success". A good dictionary will write: "(s*k-ses')"..."*" will be an upsidedown "e". The front of the dictionary will explain the sounds made by things like the upsidedown "e" symbol and the other sound symbols. The apostrophe (') symbol comes just after the accented syllable (I have used an underline here instead). Pretend that you have never used the word before and try it. If it comes out: Suck-ces, you will be able to hear yourself enough to see how to make the word sound more correct. Work on the Hebrew until it "hears" like English to you.

There is one more trick to this that is a bit harder, but which works for some people. If you are not sure of several minor differences in pronunciation for a given word, simply try to say them all at the same instant. The resulting stress produces an odd twisting in the mouth and can more closely duplicate natural speech sounds than any purely academic methods can possibly manage.

---- O'h yes, CROWLEY is pronounced Crow-lee, not Craughli!

Home away from Home

	There is a Gnome
	In the iron mountains of the western desert
	Where the jagged spires of the granite rimrock
	Come ripping up through the corroded foothills
	And he lives in these iron mountains
	This Gnome
	And he plays on the flame seared plains below
	With his trails of dust and his twisting thermals
	That begin nowhere and end in swirling nothingness
	And he swims over the heat choked ravines
	Flowing ever and around the blistering hearth stones
	The chipped and glowing walls of the open hearth stones
	This Gnome--whose furnace breath
	Is the rippling heat of the bake oven
	Pulsing and shimmering on the desert floor
	And in whose cupped and twisted hands
	The molten hyalesence
	Of the mirage is prisoned
	And he feeds on the fires in his crucible
	This Gnome
	Feeding and swimming in the fluid seas of the Flame Winds
	In the viscous, liquid heat of the burning Flame Winds
	Which lick the baked and scorching clay with tongues
	Of fire that seem as serpent shappen flames
	To bathe the nether islands of the sun
	At their dire perihelion
	And this amorphous Gnome
	Like some smoke-pillared djinn a god evoked
	To stand the watch of Cerberus
	Above the river Phlegethon--has found
	Beneath the slabs of basalt that are split
	And rivened by the long diurnal siege
	A noduled grain mercuric that had seeped
	And sweated from the smelt of cinnabar
	This Gnome--this entity--this eidolon
	Self-procreate of fire and flame and heat
	This Gnome
	-- Grady L. McMurtry
