I think it may be an error to attempt to re-orient to the modern materialist science perspective on 'planets' and prefer to retain Sol/Luna. this gives:
04 elements
10 planets (I would conflate the element with planet earth)
12 signs
"26 (the # of Roman letters)

#> Why not use Spirit as a Fifth element, Bill?
Spirit is the composite of the other 4, being a monist derivation designed to drive us again away from multiplicity. when capitalized as you have done it is sensical, when considered to be a separate element (nonmatter)
and lower-case it is logically fallacious and does not conform to my experience.
Bill Heidrick :
#Since the Sun and Moon are differently considered in modern times from
#the old system planets, do we need special placement for those two?
Sol and Luna are wanderers (planets) from earth-perspective. the radical subjectivism of occultism is important to maintain.
#How do we associate pure spirit?
awkwardly and likely unconvincingly. the prepending 'pure' is redundant.
#How do we allocate generally? - since in the Hebrew system the allocation
#is by phonetic structure of the alphabet: Mothers, Singles and Doubles;
#with dependence on actual vocalization and usage.
there's a neat idea. I'll expand on this in response to Rabbi Jeffrey.
#What do we do with directions in space?
7 of them, relating to the orientation of bodily consciousness:
forward, backward, left, right, up, down, inward. this corresponds
nicely to the 7 original planets and the 7 days of the week. one
may also categorize these: Planar (first 4), External (first 6),
Linear (any of the first 3 pairs), and Pointal (the 7th).
#Of the 16 unmarked paths on a Kircher style Tree of Life, which are
#activated by the four additional letters?
sorry, I'm not familiar with the name. perhaps I missed something.
where is this "Kircher style Tree of Life" to be found and what does it look like?
I placed the four new paths originating from spheres 2 and 3, connecting up with 4, 5 and 6 (the new ones being 2->5, 2->6, 3->4, and 3->6).
#What do we do with Temurah? - since English words are typically longer
#and more erratic than Hebrew, simple substitution ciphers are likely to
#be much less productive.
some techniques and disciplines will be lost in the transition, some may have to undergo revision.
#What do we do with structures like the 231 gates - since most English
#two letter combinations don't mean anything, unlike Hebrew two letter
#combinations?
the 'significance factor' of English letters is really only good for one objection. in the single letters or double letters there is, excepting going back to pre-English formulations, not a general meaning associated with these. unless we *create them*, which was my suggestion for those who enjoy this aspect of English Gematria (:>), and possibly use already extant and/or shaky meanings/abbrevs (e.g. a, bee, see, d(ied), e(lec)...),
then we're better off leaving this facet of Hebrew Kabbalah behind.
#What do we do with letter shapes?
very easy to expand into an entire science. the way that this can be done would be on the order of how things are fabricated within Hermeticism on a regular basis: we make it up and associate it with ancient roots to give it 'legitimacy' (until we've lost our age-addictions). I've already begun a preliminary shape analysis in the comparison of the capital Q and A, being simultaneously indicative of Questions/Answers, the interruption of doctrinal cycles (Q) and the expressive communication between two different experiences (A).
#What are the English Divine names - since spelling varies and most are
#transliterations or renderings from other languages?
English is absorptive and syncretic. this means that the way these god names appear in our favorite English determines how we spell them, with all the variants. the individual can orient to that rendering which works best for hir, selecting from the larger English toolset (actually an advantage over Hebrew and other languages).
#Which English? - there are many dialects and the general vocabulary is
#about 500,000 words long - whereas the nearest runner up is German with
#about 50,000 words in the general use vocabulary.
the English we are using. I have been raised with what is called 'Standard American English' (West Coast slang/inflection). is American English all that much different from the European? I've never been to Europe and have few friends with whom I've spoken about the variations.
no language is contained and unvariable unless dead. space and time necessarily relegate usage of language for magical purposes to an arbitrary set of parameters. supposing universality while understanding that we are unique and constructing a personal machine is the means of attaining to the deepest states of consciousness. it only means we have to convert others to our way of thinking if we start to believe our original (fallacious)
supposition, or believe that it has a moral imperative. this is an outdated attitude in a cosmopolitan and Satan-serving society.
