About 352

WSA's Trisickle; Symbol of 352:



ONA NXS 352 is a Progressive Nexion/Temple of the Order of Nine Angles. It is formally known as the White Star Acception. The Numbers 352 are the Letters WSA in numerical format: The 3 = w; the 5 = s; and the 2 = a. This Nexus (which it calls itself) is mostly known as WSA352.

The foundation of 352 are: 1) The Black Book of Satan “1;” 2) The Black Book of Satan “3;” 3) Naos; 4) All MSS by Anton Long; and 5) It’s own compilation of MSS called Opus Vrilis.

As explained in the Black Book of Satan in regards to the formation of Temples, Temple 352 has it’s own Sigil called the “Trisickle” which is the symbol displayed up there.

Trisickle is a conjunction of the words Trident and Sickle. It is described in a Chapter of Opus Vrilis named “The Sanghavada,” which is posted here as a page. The Trisickle has a number of exoteric and esoteric meanings.

Exoterically the Trisickle forms the Letters and Numbers: WSA352. The prongs of the Trident is the W/3; Saturn’s sigil forms the S/5; and the 2/a is the hump or loopy part of the Sickle.

Esoterically it has several meanings. It is the Trident of Shiva and the Sickle of Saturn. More especially it is the WSA’s Sigil of Baphomet. Kali (the Hindu version of Baphomet) holds in her hands both the Trident and Sickle, as well as a severed head as the Baphomet of the Dark Tradition does:



The word “Kali” itself actually means “Dark,” or “Black,” which to us alludes to the Dark Tradition. Parallel to certain aspects of the ONA, Kali is the goddess form of Destruction, Time and Change – Causal Progression. Another correspondence Kali has with the Dark Tradition is that according to the Vedas, Kali Herself is Prana. Prana being tantrika’s Sanskrit word for a force which maybe understood as Acausal Force. In otherwords, Kali IS the Dark Force itself.

The Mahayantra of Kali:



The Mahayantra of Mahakali to 352 is also very significant. As you will notice the central figure is composed of 3 Triangles, which means there are a total of Nine Angles all together. The triple triangle and its 9 Angles are also symbols specifically associated with this goddess-form; which as we (352) have pointed out is an Eastern, or Oriental version of Baphomet of the Dark Tradition. Thus to WSA352, the term “Nine Angles,” refers not only to the Traditional esoteric 7 Spheres + 2 Nexions, but also to the Dark Mother Baphomet Herself. Although some artists draw Mahakali Yantras that consists of more than 3 triangles; the WSA considers the ones with three triangles to be more accurate, because in various scriptures it is said that Kali manifested as Shakti (Energy) – that is – Kundalini – who coils around herself 3 times.

Another reason why Kali is such an important Symbol for Baphomet to the WSA352 is the well known initiates of Mahakalika Herself: The Thugees – once, when they were around, practiced Human Culling, where they would sacrifice people by strangulation to the Dark Mother – which of course corresponds to what we in the ONA know of as Opferring. The parallels between the Eastern Dark Tradition, and what found it’s way into Shropshire England and into the hands of Anton Long are far to many, that it truly can’t be said that Anton Long invented the entire thing out of boredom one day.

This is not to say that Anton Long borrowed “Kali-ism” from India, because there are major differences. Given the time and distance between India and England, one can assume that such Dark Tradition may have long evolved into separate and distinct Traditions. With the ONA evolving itself further away from religion and into a Methodology and unique Dark Tradition. Whereas the “dark tradition” in India has long since dilapidated or has been absorbed into Hinduism, and corrupted by it – thus is no longer Sinister as it once was – as the ONA still steadfastly remains.

Most often 352 will refer to its Satanism as “Progressive Satanism.” This is because the term “Traditional Satanism” which was coined by the ONA was “borrowed” by the Theistic profane Satanists – and we would like to distinguish ourselves from such Profanity. Plus we are progressive in different ways from what might be termed “Traditional Nexions” of the ONA, as such that we don’t like remaining still and in one place for long and are always seeking to see the ONA from different Angles and perspectives.

From the act of circumspection – walking around to gain different angles of view – the ONA, we ultimately add new insights and things to our 352 – progressing it. Sometimes, our progressive nature inspires other Initiates to see things differently, and so, gradually, the whole ONA eventually Evolves to remain relevant to us and our modern needs and modern world views.

Saturn’s Square:



The Numbers “352″ themselves have a more deeper meaning. 352 was originally founded by 3 Freemasons. Or the first 3 were childhood friends, who later became Freemasons. As you can see from the above picture, the masonic Square and Compass is a rendition of the Sigil of Saturn; and the Numbers “352″ are also taken from the Magic Square of Saturn itself.

The 3 and 5 can be found in the Middle Way, between the extremes. The Middle Way of the Square of Saturn, being dominated by the Prime Number 7 is within WSA also the “Seventh Way,” the Septenary Way, or the Seven-Fold Way. The 3 for the first three originals, and the Tetrahedron. The 5 for the 5 Points of Fellowship (the Pentagram). 3×5 = 15, which alludes to the 15th Trump – The Devil. 15×2 = 30 or the Letter “L” for Luciferi-Venus the “White Star.” The Number “2″ being near the number 7 represents the 2 nexions which accompany the 7 Spheres of the Tree of Wyrd. The Two Nexions being the Abyss and Acausal itself. 5+2 = 7, for the Seven Fold Way. 7×3 = 21, for the 21 Atus, and for the Dark Gods. The 3 for the Delta/triangle, which is the letter D for Dark. 5+2 = 7; 7 representing the letter T for Tradition.

The number “2″ being in the North East Corner in Freemasonry has a very important meaning. In the first degree, the Masonic Novitiate is placed in the North East Corner, where he represents an Ashlar recently cut and separated from the indistinguishable mass of the Quarry. As he stands there, to his Right is the Dark North, which represents ignorance. To his Left is the East, which represents Illumination. The Master is seated in the East. This Master represents the Pillar of Wisdom in Freemasonry. This word “Wisdom,” in Greek is “Sophia.” When Sophia is processes through a rabbinical cipher called the Atbash Cipher, it renders: “Baphomet.” Thus 3/W represents “Wisdom,” 5/S represents “Sophia,” and the 2 is the second letter B for “Baphomet.” The 2, being a lowercase “a” also stands for “Atbash,” which reminds us of the Cipher used to derive Baphomet out of Sophia.

From the North East Corner, the Novitiate is called to the East – to Travel the Left Hand Path (the Sinister Way) towards the East to receive illumination.

The original founders were deeply into the mysteries of Freemasonry. 352 to them is the Gematria of Thoth (88) multiplied by 4 (88×4 = 352). To them, 88 also represented Heil Hitler and the 4 also alludes to a “fourth” future Reich (not necessarily a racial one, more of a symbolic one).

The Gematric value 352 also adds up to “The Way and also The Life [he odos & ho bios],” Parah [fruitful], Qorban [sacrifice], Qarab [offer], Qeren [horn], Ratzon [favour], Sekel [understanding], Orem [craftiness], Baraq [lightning], Shabili [path], Rimmon [pomagranet], Ra’yon [thought], Aur Mola [exalted light], the Greek word Lampas [lamp], and Sarkikos [carnal].

Also, according to the “English Gematric” system: where A=1… I=9, J=10, K=20, L=30, M=40, N=50… S=100, T=200.. and so forth; the word “SATAN” itself adds up to the Number 352.

All together, the Number 352 conceals the entire Mysteries of the Dark Tradition of the ONA.

In order to understand the Atbash Cipher theory, as it relates to the Baphomet mythos, it is first important to examine the origins of the code. As early as 500 BC Scribes writing the book of Jeremiah used what we now know to be the ATBASH cipher. This cipher is one of the few used in the Hebrew language. The cipher itself, ATBASH, is very similar to the substitution cipher.

A substitution cipher is one where each letter of the alphabet actually represents another letter. In the case of the Atbash cipher, the first letter of the alphabet is substituted for the last, the second for the second last and so on. The letter A becomes "Z"; the letter "B" becomes "Y" and so on.


Dead Sea Scrolls

Dr. Hugh Schonfield was one of the original researchers working on the Dead Sea Scrolls found at Qumran and is the author of many books on Biblical history, most notably "Passover Plot."

While working on the Dead Sea Scrolls, Schonfield used the cipher to translate some words that were undetectable to the scholars. For example applying the Atbash cipher to the word "hagu," he got the Hebrew word, "tsaraph," which means, "test." The "hagu" passages are important for they deal with "The Teacher of Righteousness," which some scholars believe to have been Jesus.

Latterly, Schonfield became very interested in the charges of heresy leveled against the Knights Templar and particularly the etymology of the Baphomet. It was decided by Schonfield that he would apply the Atbash cipher, which he was convinced the Templars were aware of, to the Baphomet.

If one writes the word Baphomet in Hebrew and remember Hebrew letters read from right to left, the result is as shown below:


Applying the Atbash cipher, Schonfield revealed the following:



Although written in Hebrew it reads as the Greek word Sophia that translates into "Wisdom" in English. However, there is another connotation to the term, for Sophia was the Goddess and considered to be the bride of God.

It has been held by many that the Templars were followers of the goddess or at very least in reestablishing the feminine aspect of divinity that had been excised by the church. It should be remembered that their patron, St. Bernard of Clairvaux had an absolute obsession with Mary and was responsible for her being named the queen of Heaven and the Mother of God.

Whether the Templars were devoted to the goddess or simply respectful of wisdom, it cannot be argued that Schonfield's Atbash cipher theory is among the most plausible explanations of the etymology of Baphomet.
