The Revolutions of HWHY in Yetzirah · Geburah

יוהה

יוהה is a divine name formed by the letters Yod-He-Vav-He with a final He, one of the several permutations of the Tetragrammaton assigned to the Yetziratic revolutions of HWHY. Its vocalic shape suggests a sharpening of the ineffable name into a terminating seal: the final He acts as a closure or a marking cut, distinguishing this variant from the more familiar יההו or יהוה. The name appears explicitly in Hekhalot Rabbati (synopse §94) as the seal invoked when descending into the sixth palace, associated with the crushing of hostile forces and the blazing of the divine sword. In the table of Liber 777, this name resides at Geburah, the sephirah of Mars, severity, and judgment—the fire that separates the worthy from the unworthy. Its numerical value (20) is the letter Kaph, the palm that encloses and the final He as the breath of condemnation. The historical context is plain: the early Jewish mystics of the Merkavah tradition knew this permutation as the name that burns but does not consume, the nomina barbara that stands at the threshold of the divine chariot, where only the pure may pass. In the system of Crowley’s 777, יוהה is the name that enforces the limitation of form, the point at which the infinite becomes brittle, and the shell of the klippah is shattered by its own name of measure.
