The Emerald Tablets.Tablet ~ #12.The Law of Cause and Effect.The Key of Prophecy.






List ye, O man, to the words of my wisdom,

list to the voice of Thoth, the Atlantean.

Conquered have I the Law of time-space.

Knowledge have I gained of the future of time.

Know I that man in his movement through space-time shall ever be One with the All


Know ye, O man,

that all of the future is an open book to him who can read.

All effect shall bring forth its causes as all effects grew from the first cause.

Know ye the future is not fixed or stable but varies as cause brings forth an effect.

Look in the cause thou shalt bring into being,

and surely thou shalt see that all is effect.


So, O man, be sure the effects that ye bring forth are ever causes of more perfect effects.

Know ye the future is never in fixation but follows man's free will as it moves through the movements of time-space toward the goal where a new time begins.


Man can only read the future through the causes that bring the effects.

Seek ye within the causation and surely ye shall find the effects.
