12 IS THE NUMBER OF THE TRIBES
THE JACKAL CONSORTS WITH

12 IS THE NUMBER OF THE ZODIAC,

WHOSE CHILDREN SLUMBER FITFULLY IN EVERYONE,

WAITING TO

BE U N L E A S H E D.

CREATORS' NAMES

HOPE AND DESPAIR ARE THE SUM OF 12,

WHEN THE PERFECTION OF UNITY

OF EVERY BEING OF THE THREEFOLD FOUR

BY AIR

AND SEA

AND ON EARTH
