Consecration for PGM Bornless rite

[Nerone]

In the Stele of Jeu, PGM V 96-172, the "Headless" / "Bornless" rite, there is a prerequisite of wearing a piece of papyrus inscribed with the "six names" from temple to temple. I figure this needs to be properly consecrated.

I was wondering: is the PGM IV 1596 - 1715, "The Consecration for All Things" appropriate for this?

The reason I ask: Akhephalos, the "Headless One", seems to be beyond dualities - be it Osirian or Typhonian - and seems more as their source, so I'm uncertain whether calling upon a purely Solar aspect of Divinity in the form Helios would be appropriate – indeed, I'm wondering what exactly would be an appropriate consecration for this

do you know which are exactly these six names? they are not named there.. there are more versions of them..

I see a lot of practitioners use AŌTH ABRAŌTH BASYM ISAK SABAŌTH IAŌ, simply because it's the only "six names" appearing in the Stele of Jeu itself.

The original papyrus actually has a footnote referring to the six names to be used, without mentioning them explicitly. This

does a great job explaining the matter in more detail and indeed the author of the same article came to the conclusion through his own research that it must be: CHABRACH PHNESCHĒR PHICHRO PHNYRŌ PHŌCHŌ BŌCH

About my original post: on further rumination, there seems to be one of three ways to go. The first would be to use the hymn to Mercury from the Picatrix in consecrating the papyrus, pen and ink, these pertaining to his domain. The second would be to use one of the prayers of the Grimorium Verum for the consecration of the ritual tools, and the third is to use the PGM IV 1596 - 1715, "The Consecration for All Things".

On further contemplation, there certainly does seem to be Solar elements to the spell - first and foremost, the dominion over all spirits, the "spiritual regality", which indeed is very Solar. Second, the exorcistic element of "deliver him, NN, from the daimon which restrains him" could be seen as fundamentally Saturnian with themes of exile and banishment, but one could also argue that there is a Solar element to this calling, not unlike the Seventh Pentacle of the Sun among the Solomonic pentacles:

"If any be by chance imprisoned or detained in fetters of iron, at the presence of this pentacle, which should be engraved in Gold on the day and hour of the Sun, he will be immediately delivered and set at liberty."

Yeah, I think I was overthinking the matter too much. PGM IV 1596 - 1715, "The Consecration for All Things" definitely seems appropriate
