Vaibbahk Reference Guide
A downloadable grimoire
This book is a reference guide for the magickal constructed language vaibbahk. More about that on the next page!
This book does not include everything you need to learn or use the language. To do that, you would need to read Vaibbahk: A Magickal Constructed Language. You can get the pdf for free here: https://alleywurds.itch.io/vaibbahk
This reference guide combines the 46 root words found in that book, with the 37 root words added in Sub/Urban Butoh Fu 2, free here: https://alleywurds.itch.io/suburban-butoh-fu-2
More recently, it also adds in the 40 new roots from Sub/Urban Butoh Fu 3, free here: https://alleywurds.itch.io/suburban-butoh-fu-3
If you just care about vaibbahk as a constructed language, those three books are likely enough for you to learn and use the language, but you’d be be best off engaging with the whole series of books which spawned vaibbahk, the Butoh Technomancy series (https://www.amazon.com/Butoh-Technomancy/dp/B0993RRQCF).

Changes from prior books:
8/27/23: The hand signs for the vowels "eh" and "i" have been swapped to make them a bit easier on my wrists. This is reflected in the new reference guide. The only media which has the old hand signs is the Saigsprihl video.
1/4/24: The melody for 029 Leaves changed from 1 7 6 3 4 to 1 9 8 5 4 2 3 to help distinguish it from 042 Fence, which has the same melody, 1 7 6 3 4, but in a different musical mode, so they weren't technically the same musical intervals.
They have similar meanings, so I rationalized it, but for the purposes of ritualistically imprinting yourself, it's better to make them more distinct. The only media affected by this is the audio for the Ahrishiv hypersigil, which has the old melody for 029 Leaves.
5/24/24 The 12edo (western tuning) melody for 002 Fire mistakenly had 1 5 11 5 11 15 as the melody, however it should really be 1 5 10 5 10 15. This has now been corrected! This didn't affect any projects of mine, since I only use the 24edo, quarter tone, form of the musical orthography.
