In the beginning, God created Anu and Ki, heaven and Earth so joined at the horizon. Their coming together brought forth ENKI, god of the watery egg of Orphic chaos magic. His brother, Enlil created Adam from clay and gave him life through his own blood. And every day since, mankind has used the symbolism of these names as the power to unite heaven and Earth. Every Pharoah held it in his hand. Today it decorates every church steeple that points to the heavens above the mystic Chi Rho on the door. With this work, we shall take hold of this ancient symbol for ourselves and with it, use its power to unite heaven and Earth within ourselves as we learn its evolution through time and culture. Thus, we shall unveil the secrets so long understood and used by only a privileged few that kept the powers of the gods for themselves allowing them to trample the less fortunate and uneducated masses. Today, we will learn to speak their language and wield their power.
