    Dear Peter,

    >> At this moment in time I'm still working upon perfecting my ability
    to percieve essential meaning. I'm going to be keeping on working on,
    and eventually I'm sure I'll get it though. <<

    Cool. I'm certain that you will 'get it' too, considering how much
    progress you've already made in that regard. :)

    >> Perhaps a better question would be: why does the Sepher Yetzirah not
    deal with the five basic vowel points? Do these vowel points deal more
    with the transition from Yetzirah to Assiah? <<

    Even though the S.Y. doesn't come out and name the vowels in the same
    way it does the Letters, they are still inferred. Many things are
    inferred or stated symbolically/obliquely in the S.Y. and this is why
    it's essential to study the S.Y. in its original Hebrew and go through
    it with a fine-toothed comb, so to speak.

    Ultimately, each of the Hebrew Letters, which are all *consonants*,
    require a vowel to the *spoken* astrally and physically. The vowel
    points are the life breath of the Letters.

    In S.Y., 2:3 we find an indication of the three forms of "speaking" a
    Letter --

    "Twenty-two foundation Letters:
    He portrayed them with voice;
    He hewed them out with breath;
    He hid them in the mouth in five places . . ."

    The last ("He hid them in the mouth in five places") refers to the
    *mental* speaking, per Bardon. Here, the Letter is spoken mentally
    without any vowel attached. The key to speaking the *consonant* without
    the vowel is the shaping of the mouth: i.e., where they are "hidden" in
    the mouth itself.

    "He hewed them out with breath", refers to the *astral* speaking, per
    Bardon. Here there is the addition of the "breath", which means the
    vowels since speaking vowels involves breath. By "hewing" is meant that
    the consonants are thus given dimension and life.

    "He portrayed them with voice", refers to the *physical* speaking, per
    Bardon. Here the vocal chords are vibrated along with the issuance of
    breath and shaping of the mouth.

    All of these actions are enacted upon the "22 *foundation* Letters".

    >> Also, within the inner circle of the Third Key I'm seeing three sets
    of four different colours. So in the inner circle we've got the three
    mother letters, the five vowel points...so what do the other four come
    in? <<

    I think you're being overly rational here. :)

    The first set of four, immediately within the inner circle, represents
    the four Divine Qualities, as expressed through the four Elements and
    their respective Electro-Magnetic properties.

    The first *square* represents, as Bardon explained, the material realm
    and the four material Elements.

    The innermost square represents the Kabbalist. Note that the sequence
    of colors (moving counter-clockwise) follows the proper correspondences
    to the IHVH -- Yod=Fire, Heh=Water, Vav=Air and Heh-final=Earth. I take
    this as evidence that Bardon did understand the Hebrew correspondences
    to the IHVH as opposed to what he stated in the text of KTQ (which was
    that Yod=Fire, Heh=Air, Vav=Water and Heh-final=Earth, which is patently
    incorrect).

    The 24-pointed star at the center represents Divine Providence acting
    through the Kabbalist.

    My best to you,
    :) Rawn Clark
