This is pretty intresting...off wikipedia:
Heru-ra-ha is a composite deity within Thelema—a religion established in 1904 with the writing of The Book of the Law by Aleister Crowley—composed of Ra-Hoor-Khuit and Hoor-par-kraat.[1] He is associated with the other two major Thelemic deities found in The Book of the Law, Nuit and Hadit, who are also godforms related to ancient Egyptian mythology. Their images link Nuit and Hadit to the established Egyptian deities Nut and Hor-Bhdt (Horus of Edfu). |

Check out the Egyptian hieroglyph script for 1/3 and 3/4  |
It is strikingly similar (as is 2/3), but the upper part of the symbols apparently lacks the "sun" meaning (and similarity to an eye) and means "mouth." It's also much more oval in shape. |

those are the symbols for "Op is a loudmouth."
Well if they ever want to have a PR dept, that'd be a good symbol. _________________ “It takes a thousand voices to tell a single story. ”

Despite Lad's stern admonitions, I've decided to join in on the Photoshop fun. Here's what I did.
First, I enhanced the colors and contrast on the original pics (basically using the AutoLevels and Equalize commands).
I thought those came out pretty nice and colorful. So then I decided to do the superimpose thing. However, as opposed to what someone did here, I thought it would be cool to superimpose one image with the negative of the other, so that the same or similar elements on each of them canceled out and whatever remained would be the background differences. Then I again enhanced the color and contrast. Here's what I got:
So what do I see? Well, there's clearly another layer of blotches and stains, with different textures than the originals (some very smooth and watercolor-ly like as opposed to the previous porous and rough stains). Also notice there seem to be 2 sort of frames overlaid: one almost as big as the whole image but slightly slanted to the right and kind of darkish and blotchy, and a smaller one that's perfectly aligned with the whole image and it has a kind of transparent quality.
Ok that was fun. |

I am more so concerned about the page number then anything else...
that is driving me insane.
and i like how the "deformed" watcher symbol comes out clearer then the rest of the negative part...fits perfectly ontop of the transparent symbol on the other.
edit to add: did you try it the oppostie way, the other picture a negative? _________________ kelly

What if the blurriness of the watcher symbol means "This is the one you need to focus on right now. The others will come into play later"? _________________ ~always reach for the moon and you will reach the stars~ |

ahh thanks everyone for pointing out the epsilon should be sigma [i was killing myself trying to figure out how jubilation and a boomerang went together]. ok so here's what i got for the top right now:
Sigma: a symbol for Uraeus [the simplest hieroglyph is it being a Cobra] but there are several possible variations
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uraeus
Gimel: hieroglyph of a boomerang |

You would just get the negative of the one I did. |

i did the same thing yesterday. I didn't find anything really interesting in there, except for the fact that there is obviously another layer underneath. You can see a sort of frame.... something. And yeah, that was fun!  |

Ahhh this is driving me nuts! Just fiddling with the pictures... okay. The 76 is definitely bugging me too, and I've finally lost it since I see other numbers...
