Important note:
“The Signs and Powers may be summoned after the Priest has ascended to that step on the Ladder of Lights and gained entrance to that Sacred City. The Signs should be engraved on parchment or sealed in clay and placed upon the altar at the Calling. And in the perfumes should be of cedar, and strong, sweet-smelling resins. And the Calling be to the North.”
More information:
According to Sumerian mythology, Marduk was the God who defeated the Ancient Ones long before the creation of matter as we know it.
Against him in battle were the fierce TIAMAT, KINGU, and AZAG-THOTH. Once he had destroyed these demons, he created the universe from the flesh of TIAMAT, and humanity from the blood of KINGU mixed with his own breath.
You will come across these names in the description of the Fifty Names, which were titles given to Marduk by the Elder Gods after he had helped them to defeat the Ancient Ones.

Im confused by “no furthur comment nessessary.” It says Gil makes the women to give birth, but then it says makes the potent impotent. Isnt thesethe opposite of each other since a man needs to be potent for the woman to give birth? Is Gil on some level, a way of birth control?
No… The text doesn’t say: “Makes the potent, impotent.”
It says: “Makes potent the impotent.” means “Makes the impotent, potent.” or “Makes the impotent become potent.”
Now, “Makes impotent the potent.” would mean “Makes the potent, impotent” or “Makes the potent become impotent”.
Do you understand now? It’s an English inversion thing.
