The Seventeenth Degree of Awakening
The Seventeenth Degree of Implicate Intelligence is Phi Pe. There are variations on this title but the initial understanding is available using Phi Pe.
I am a Self-creating, liberated Spirit
I am power in equilibrium
I rise from the Fires of Change as the Phoenix transformed
Pe Aloah va Daath
Eheieh asher Eheieh
For an Empath to achieve the Seventeenth degree of intelligence is a major accomplishment in the evolution of Implicate beings.
Phi Pe is at the core of self-actualization and transformation into higher states of consciousness. Although, the intensity of Phi Pe is so great that most "flee" at this point. It is very understandable. Everyone will have this reaction at this stage of psychic evolution. It is a natural an instinctive response
Some of the transpersonal symbols for Phi Pe are:
The Tower card in the Tarot (always a popular card), a symbol of cleansing, transformation, and initiation,
Pe means "mouth" and the endless ramifications one might discern from the symbolic meaning of the mouth,
Astrologically, the planet Mars
and the power value of 80, which is 8 times 10.
All of these transpersonal symbols are keys to the inner nature of Pe.
Pe is a path of initiation, which involves a horizontal shift of consciousness. The direction of shifts in consciousness are detailed in Jadoan Alchemy. A horizontal shift involves physical changes and the need for a katabolic response in order to facilitate the changes. Think on these words until it sinks it.
Horizontal shifts of consciousness always require some form of external activity in order to proceed. The principle of RITUAL embodies the facilitation of horizontal shifts of consciousness.
Pe is the elemental which generates activity and force by the continual interfacing of opposites. The nature of Pe is distinctly katabolic, but only in the larger sense of metabolism. Katabolism is used here to denote the breakdown of individual energies to benefit the whole. Pe is only caustic to the stagnant, it removes the old to make way for the new. How painful Pe is is determined by how hard you are clinging on to the thing it is changing.
When Pe is evoked or experienced by itself, its high frequency disrupts the stability of any patterns and any thoughtforms. The interface of the opposite forces which generally occurs in Phi Pe generates a sense of conflict in individuals experiencing Pe. This sense of conflict increases in proportion to any imbalances within the psyche of the individual. The more balanced the opposites become with regard to each other the more stable the influence of Pe. When Pe is stabilized it serves as a great source of strength within the individual psyche.
When balance is not maintained within the psyche, Pe is experienced as more disruptive and even destructive; destruct to the unnecessary, that is.
When Phi Pe is integrated into the psyche it generates such qualities as assertiveness, independence, and endurance. When segregated from the other states of consciousness, Pe produces anger, depression,emotional implosion, aggressiveness, and power struggles.
At the same time, Pe is the personal realizations which take place after the experience of a disaster or crisis. In its "raw" form, Phi Pe is power, personal and universal. It is THE strength of the Storm, working for you or against you. Pe attempts to exert dominion over external forces; whereas Theta Teth (another horizontal shift) exerts dominion over internal forces.
One of the most significant perceptions of Pe comes through it's function as a path of initiation. This is the initiation of the Phoenix, the transformation of the Ego from "lead to gold." Pe empowers the transformation of the lump of coal into a beautiful diamond. But OH the experience in-between!
On the emotional level Pe can be experienced as anger. The greater the internal imbalance or conflict the greater the degree of Pe as anger and upheaval. This influence is primarily determined by inner imbalance (emotional) but does correspond to external patterns as well. When integrated Pe becomes a controlled elemental and establishes strength and competence within the individual psyche. This is the Mastery of the Storm.
Phi Pe is the lesser Guardian of the Threshold within the microcosm. To come to terms with the Guardian is to open the door to the "Palace of Light" (the Psyche) and access levels of mind which are not directly accessible through the Ego level of awareness.
Walking the paths, Pe is a wall of fire that the Ego cannot pass. In the heart of that fire is the mouth of fire itself, Pe. All work and effort are in preparation to walk into that mouth of fire. Despite how long it make take you to prepare or pass into the mouth of fire, you WILL be transformed. The Ego is eventually shed like an old skin and a new self will need to be defined and refined.
Pe is the true "eye" of the Storm.

From the Book of Thoth
The Tower
This card is attributed to the letter Peh, which means a mouth; it refers to the planet Mars. In its simplest interpretation it refers to the manifestation of cosmic energy in its grossest form. The picture shows the destruction of existing material by fire. It may be taken as the preface to Atu XX, the Last Judgment, i.e., the Coming of a New Aeon. This being so, it seems to indicate the quintessential quality of the Lord of the Aeon.[See Liber AL III. 3-9; II - 13; 17-18; 23-29; 46; 49-60; 70-72.]
At the bottom part of the card, therefore, is shown the destruction of the old-established Aeon by lightning, flames, engines of war. In the right-hand corner are the jaws of Dis, belching flame at the root of the structure. Falling from the tower are broken figures of the garrison. It will be noticed that they have lost their human shape.
They have become mere geometrical expressions.
This suggests another (and totally different) interpretation of the card. To understand this, it is necessary to refer to the doctrines of Yoga, especially those most widely current in Southern India, where the cult of Shiva, the Destroyer, is paramount. Shiva is represented as dancing upon the bodies of his devotees. To understand this is not easy for most western minds. Briefly, the doctrine is that the ultimate reality (which is Perfection) is Nothingness. Hence all manifestations, however glorious, however delightful, are stains. To obtain perfection, all existing things must be annihilated. The destruction of the garrison may therefore be taken to mean their emancipation from the prison of organized life, which was confining them. It was their unwisdom to cling to it.
The above should make it clear that magical symbols must always be understood in a double sense, each contradictory of the other. These ideas blend naturally with the higher and deeper significance of the card.
There is a direct reference to this card in the Book of the Law. In Chapter I, verse 57, the goddess Nuith speaks: "Invoke me under my stars! Love is the law, love under will. Nor let the fools mistake love; for there are love and love. There is the dove, and there is the serpent. Choose ye well! He, my prophet, hath chosen, knowing the law of the fortress, and the great mystery of the House of God". [For this reason the ancient title, to-day not very intelligible, has been retained. Otherwise, it might have been called War.]
The dominating feature of this card is the Eye of Horus. This is also the Eye of Shiva, on the opening of which, according to the legend of this cult, the Universe is destroyed.
Besides this, there is a special technical magical meaning, which is explained openly only to initiates of the Eleventh degree of the O.T.O.; a grade so secret that it is not even listed in the official documents. It is not even to be understood by study of the Eye in Atu XV. Perhaps it is lawful to mention that the Arab sages and the Persian poets have written, not always guardedly, on the subject.
Bathed in the effulgence of this Eye (which now assumes even a third sense, that indicated in Atu XV) are the Dove bearing an olive branch and the Serpent: as in the above quotation. The Serpent is portrayed as the Lion-Serpent Xnoubis or Abraxas. These represent the two forms of desire; what Schopenhauer would have called the Will to Live and the Will to Die. They represent the feminine and masculine impulses; the nobility of the latter is possibly based upon recognition of the futility of the former. This is perhaps why the renunciation of love in all the ordinary senses of the word has been so constantly announced as the first step towards initiation. This is an unnecessarily rigid view. This Trump is not the only card in the Pack, nor are the "will to live" and the "will to die" incompatible. This becomes clear as soon as life and death are understood (See Atu XIII) as phases of a single manifestation of energy.
