Solve et Coagula

The waters have turned to flame And the earth and air invert The sun becomes the moon at day And the moon, the sun in nocturne Hell hath frozen over, heaven's ablaze Yet the earth betwixt is still In the creation of a Magickal age Live long by "do what thou wilt" From creation must come destruction And from destruction comes creation. Ouroboros rebirths, freed from death Occultism's light shall lead our way Where The zephyrs sigh their breath And the tears of Abzu are the dew of a new day Seven princes in seven kingdoms Magick ones we shall praise Set, master of doom and abandon Soon will lead us through stormed haze Babylon shall rise again from its dust And the throne shall turn to gold from rust. Voices of primordial gods echo beyond Tiamat, the mother of creation, sings her dirge Doth the wind cry once more, to its Mother Tiamat, from spawn Tiamat's womb now pierced with scourge From chaos may come order And from order may come chaos Energy is but one facet of disorder As we witness the fall of the cross Opposites dance, Indulgence and abstinence Existence and its partner, Mortis. From breast of man birthed the sword From breast of woman birthed temptation From seeds of death now comes a tree of life, onward And knowledge from the serpent Faust's pleas of knowledge beyond eternity Once answered, now erode And from ashes of his soul we see Monuments erected in stone Of Baphomet, the hermaphrodite With Darkness in its left hand and lightness in its right. Hear Pan's soli on the flute As Apollo decrescendos his tune. Solve et Coagula, dissolve and coagulate Solve et Coagula, dissolution and coagulation Circle of destruction, cycle of creation.
