Ormesius the Seraphic priest of Alexandria Egypt was likely the sage or magi who lent his name to the words Orme and Ormus. Learning about Gold Ormus or the white powder gold known as monatomic powder of course is what this article is about but to get right to the root of the matter one has to find beginnings.
This article will attempt to follow a path the the place where the Seraphic priest worshipped. But first let's discover what the word seraphic means.
SeraphicFinding the root of words is very difficult. Most etymology dictionaries online are almost useless. But this word is not so hard to decipher by just using common sense. The Hebrew language used no vowels. But somehow rp referred to "to burn" as in "rap" and somehow by adding s to rp or srp the Hebrew were suddenly referring to a serpent or a fiery serpent or maybe even to the serpentine motion of something such as a strand of DNA.
The Greek alphabet was easier to learn and teach because it included vowels, so the Greek Seraph referred to the same fiery serpent. The plural form was Serapheim. The Latin language came later and used seraphin.
From this it seems reasonable that a seraph is a single fiery serpent while seraphim or seraphin are multiple fired up serpents.
Most dictionaries define a seraph as being an alien being or a celestial being having three pairs of wings. The same dictionaries state that in Christianity the Seraphim is the first of nine orders of angels.
So looking into the past evolution of words is a bit like looking into the future, both are lost in interpretation most of the time.
Seraphic would imply that the object being observed is a semblence of a seraph. Using seraphic in a sentence such as, "she has such a seraphic disposition" or " yo bro that there biatch gotta seraphic rap" (never use the word nigga - it is unethical ) would be stating that the person was blissful or serene or burning with passion as in a rapt befitting an angel.
On to the Seraphic Priest Ormus.Well maybe not just yet....
Theological Dualism - the good god Ormuzd (Ahura-Mazda) and the bad god Ahriman ( Angro-Mainyu).
Ormuzd and Ahriman are the modern versions of an ancient Iranian religion. To Zoroastrian and the Avestic they were Ahura Mazda and Angro Mainyu.
In a crude rendition of how things worked in the Zoroastrian and the Avesta religions read on. The priesthood was hierarchical. Each priest regardless of caste was considered a ( man of fire ) and was responsible to the fire service. The good priests conducted their services under the symbol of Ormuzd - the good spirit. The caste society was later disposed of and replaced with the magus, aka Median magicians. The service of the priest always included the maintenance of the sacred fire. The rituals included all types of sacrifices on open air fire alters including purification of the soul through human sacrifice. The human sacrifices were outlawed with time.
Haoma and Soma - again in a crude rendition of telling the story, a special class of priests had an old ritual which was performed in special fire temples whereby the nectar of certain narcotic plants were extracted and used in further rituals. This same story is recounted is the Greek myth where Asclepius goes up against the grand master of grand masters called Zeus after discovering the magical formula that can either render a human immortal or revive the dead. The haoma ritual performed in the temple fire of the Iranian priesthood is similar to the soma ritual performed around the same time in India. Each involved the drinking of a special herbs.
Some herbs that are suggested as having potential for such rituals include.
- ephedra - used for thousands of years in Chinese traditional herb medicine
- psylocybin mushrooms - magic mushroom
- amanita muscaria - another magic shroom
- blue lotus - the Nymphaea caerulea grows on the shallow shores along rivers and lakes and was used by Egyptians
- cannabis - pretty much used by anyone looking to get high on THC
- honey - my preferred source
- sarcostemma acidum - the soma plant brought from the sky from the falcons
- asclepias acida - milkweed
- Salvia Divinorum - the American continent wild sage that is the rave of some modern thrill seekers but which has some wicked qualities of producing soma or haoma type effects when used in small doses
So can we be any further away from the Seraphic priest Ormus yet.
Basically Ormesius was a seraphic priest who founded a society called the society of Ormus.
The Ormus Lodge which is club which operates under the same type of rank system as masonic lodges describes the Seraphic priest of Egyptian Alexandria in the following way.
Their founder was a seraphic priest of Alexandria a magus of Egypt named Ormesius, or Ormus, who with six of his companions was converted in the year 96 by St. Mark. He purified the doctrine of the Egyptians according to the precepts of Christianity, and founded the society of Ormus, that is to say the Sages of Light, to the members of which he gave a red cross as a decoration. About the same time, the Essenes and other Jews founded a school of Solomonic wisdom, to which the disciples of Ormus united themselves. Then the society was divided into various Orders known as the Conservators of Mosaic Secrets, of Hermetic Secrets etc. Several members of the association having yielded to the temptations of pride seven Masters united effected a reform adopted a modern constitution and collected together on their tracing board all the allegories of the hermetic work.

Like I stated before looking backwards can sometimes fog up the true interpretation of a concept. The same truth can be said about looking forward. As above so below might also be misinterpreted. So where does one look to make sense of anything.
The sage might tell you to look nowhere but exactly where you are. The whole story behind this is told in a version where a man sets off into the unknown to look for gold and leaves is wife and family. He finds no gold but returns to find a mother load under is very property. However by the time he came back he'd lost it all, including the respect of his loved ones.
Look under your nose since there is nothing new under the sun today.
I don't know that this post answered the question, " Who was the Seraphic priest Ormus ?" Writing and researching this has certainly opened up so many more questions in my own mind.
