Sanskrit:
Abhra / Abra - CLOUD
Sakh - EMBRACE or PERVADE
Sakhatha - CHARIOT or WAGON
Hence Abrasax: CLOUD CHARIOT / COMET
Serpentine legs of the anguipedal daimon - the streamers of a comet?
Perhaps more simply, Abrasax is a cloud chariot, luminous heavenly body or UFO...
As an embracing cloud or cloud being, it is somewhat appropriat for those who see Abrasax as the Prime Entity from which Mind came, and from which "lesser" gods devolved.
Just as certain supposedly mysterious glyphs within Ancient Egyptian syllabaries are actually nothing more than medically accurate and very sophisticated maps of the pineal gland and brain stem, so the Abrasax form and associated stars can be mapped to the human body. This doesn't make its occult learning correct; it merely directs our thinking to the type of conditioning and the attempt to control our higher perceptual powers that is involved in the gnostic propaganda at work.
In the family tree of the Daimons such as Hypnos and Thanatos, brothers Sleep and Death, perhaps Abrasax is the mystically unnamed ithyphallic or omniphallic father-daimon who mated with Old Night to produce the daimon generations? Or is Abrasax the Aberra-Stone- the Lapis Exilis allowing Old Night to make her spawn parthenogenically?
