ORDO TRIA FLUMINA

10, 11, 12 July 2013 – Waxing Crescent

The Scladis-Legia Working

(Foundation of the Order, Bonds and Pacts)

By: A.A., M.A., C.D.

1. Introduction to the O.T.F.

The Ordo Tria Flumina (the Order of the Three Rivers) is a New Aeonic order which is part of the

Western esoteric tradition in a contemporary manner.

Gontia

The main goal of the O.T.F. is the revival of the dormant gods, goddesses, spirits and other entities of

the pre-Christian era. The O.T.F. will primarily focuss on the goddess Gontia; She who is the

confluence of Scaldis (Schelde) and Legia (Leie), the waxing and waning Moon above and the

galloping Horse below.

Our aim will be both spiritual and cultural, if such a distinction can even be made. It is from Her the

city of Ghent lends its name, and it is to Her that the city should pay tribute for its social and cultural

composition and well-being.

Through own experiences we have come to agree that the Abrahamitic veneer only obfuscated

humanity for a brief time in its existence from its shamanic roots. This all happened for practical

purposes, some of which are the development of rational philosophy, the scientific method,

globalism and the ideals of the Enlightenment. Though fundamentally critical of modernity, we do

not see any need to throw out the baby with the bathwater.

In our curriculum we have incorporated various works which come from a sceptical to even a hostile

stance against this historical phenomenon. Still, we do not think this rupture with our pagan past

didn’t serve any function. On the contrary, we see that the death of the Old was a necessity to start

anew and transformed. But we must stress the transitory stage of it and not stagnate in the midst of

its out-of-control pendulum.

Paradoxically, hopeful and even foreboding signs come as we look to the emergence of ideas, albeit

twisted and inaccurate, which modern man cherishes. Nostalgia for the archaic haunts him, whether

it be directly or indirectly present in the fallacy of ‘appeal to nature’ in economics, cultural

appropriation, orientalist and primitivist idealizations, the communist idea which seeks a

reinstallment of the economic organization of primitive man, the romanticism of the right or the

libertine lifestyle of today’s anarchists. These all echo the troubled human condition ever since the

tides turned in favour of the bourgeois class.

An inverted world came to being in which the dissolution, set in motion by monotheism, further

increased and the lowering of vibrational energies served the needs of the strongest demon at this

moment, Mammon.

We are homesick and now, more than ever, dream of a world that is a dialectical union of pre-

modern and modern. The New is being halted and can thus only come about through atavism. If we

let the Beast and Whore in us rule once more, we can bring about an apocalyptical shift in

consciousness.

The tutelary deity is of great importance in this operation. But to actively function, the deity requires

the acknowledgment of its habitants.

If not, it will rest and perhaps here and there indications of its presence will make itself visible, but

not in the manner as it is intended. It will only leave the place to its mundane activities, thus

despiritualizing the very city, town or village (which is exactly what has happened to most tutelary

deities of today's world).

As said before, these spiritual entiteis never die, they only sleep, to be awakened by the chants of

devotees. In short, this is the O.T.F.’s mission, which will entail far more than mantric singing and the

bringing of offerings. We must reappropriate the urban domain and let loose a current that will

know no resistance.

The O.T.F. is open to All; regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, political pursuasion or creed.

Yet one must know that a radical transformation of all the aforementioned is the goal.

Where the Great Beast stopped, it is our understanding that those following the Law should each do

their part in bringing the Camel across the desert, roar like the Lion in the dunes and be silent like the

Child near the shore.

To revive that which can never be truly destroyed by whatever force set in motion by the Kali Yuga.

Gontia Prevails!

2. Foundation of the O.T.F.

The O.T.F. will be founded on the 10th, 11th and 12th of July 2013. One day after the New Moon and

the commencing of the Waxing Crescent of July 2013. In this nocturnal Light in the midst of the

Summer we shall ask for Her blessing for the undertakement.

This specific date is auspicious for the Order and further signifies the activation of this New Aeonic

initiative.

To our initial surprise, the acronym of the Ordo Tria Flumina, O.T.F., adds up to the number 156 in

Hebrew gematria, the number of Babalon, the Scarlet Woman, the Whore of the Apocalypse and the

Mother of Abominations. As we are tuning ourselves in to the divine feminine, this is most definitely

an indication we . Interestingly, Ordo Tria Flumina itself adds up to 1056 in English gematria, which

again resonates the same numerlogical quality of the Red Goddess.

Other synchronicities during and after rituals in honour to Gontia have affirmed that our pursuit in

the rebirth of this ancient Celtic goddess is approved by larger forces at work. Our preliminary

activities at the Abbey of Gontia near the Schelde have demonstrated this fact even further.

The O.T.F. is headed by the Triad ( A.A., M.A., C.D. ). An inner circle of two male and one female

grand initiates, working together as if a geometrical triangle. A form that can symbolize the Four

Elements, the power of the One to become all, Harmony, Ascension and both a male/solar and

female/lunar symbol.

One for each river and one for the third hidden ‘river’ to the netherworld where she dwells.

The Triad

3. The Three Days of the Scaldis-Legia Working

The Scaldis-Legia Working is a ritual spanning three days, executed by the Triad to attune our psychic

energies to the respective rivers that bring about the Confluence from which She emerges. Attuning

is the key word here, for stilling the mind is the main objective and by extension the Great Work

itself.

The first day we shall read Liber AL vel Legis /The Book of the Law as delivered by Aleister Crowley,

Τὸ Μεγα Θηρίον, the Prophet of the New Aeon. In accordance with the clause in The Comment at

the end we shall destroy the copy after the first reading, since the study of the Book is forbidden.

This will be the first time we shall read the actual book. The reason why this is of importance to the

O.T.F. is that in this manner we shall inscribe ourselves upon the first formulations of the New Aeon

of which the O.T.F. is an intrinsic part. The O.T.F. is indebted to the work of those of us who went

before. Still, this is not a simple demonstration of honour or a mere tribute to the magician, but a

magickal ritual which intends to make the O.T.F. an accelerator of the New Aeonic forces in and

around the city of Ghent.

The Gontia Evocation Ritual

Next to this reading, we shall focuss on the practise of intense meditation (“Liber ABA” by 666),

Yantra/Hatha Yoga (“Liber ABA” by 666 & “Yantra Yoga” by Chögyal Namkhai Norbu), the further

refining of non-standard Banishing Rituals (“Liber ABA” by 666), the contacting of praetorhuman

intelligences through the Club 333 ritual called “Ride the Lightning”. The former to, of course, still

the mind ( an enormously laborious act itself ) through the training of body and mind. Discipline is

the key to success. One cannot roam the spheres beyond when the chains keep oneself firmly tightly

locked to an ocean of mundane distractions. The latter is again part of the same objective as the

reading and destroying of the Book of the Law, namely to further push the current set in motion by

Aleister Crowley, Jack Parsons, L. Ron Hubbard, Kenneth Grant, Michael Bertiaux and many others.

During the day we shall frequently make us of mnemonic devices to induce lucid dreamings for

further results during or maybe perhaps after the Three Days.

“The Gontia Rising Ritual” and “the Evocation of Gontia” Herself, following the method delivered to

us by Her, will be done at proper times each day to bring her into our midst and bless us and our

undertakement.

This will continue for three days on at specific times, with intervals of breaks in which non-magical

activities will occupy our minds to not give into obsession or exhaustion, which will not be benficial

for the days to come.

All activities and results will be noted in a collective magickal diary which will, after the end of the

Three Days, be taken by each of the members to document further results long after the original

working.
