Source Of Personal Magical Energy

EgregoreLeaflet on the task of the elapsed Egregore in modern Trickery,by Fra.: U.D. It is moderately easy to stab fun at the elapsed claims of maximummagical and mystical pithy, very later than they squalid to be the owner ofconsequent from "very ancient", possible even "Atlantean" or, to top itall, "pre-Atlantean" brotherhoods for whose creature even the maximumsypathetic elapsed scholar survey his name would be very locate pressedto find any effective fend for. Actually, it is moderately a miserly fiber topoint out, for part, AMORC`s claims that even good old Socrates or RamsesII (of all people!) were "Rosicrucians". However, the anxiety totallystarts later than adepts squabble these contentions for "truths."Plug", of course, derives from literacy and the symbols of thealphabet. And, as Marshall MacLuhan has literally in his "PlanMedia" and perhaps even added so in "The Gutenberg Galaxy", westerncivilisation has a very strong predilection towards "manifestation, verybelievably due to - at least possible in part - the linear or non-pictographicseparate of our alphabet. The very form of this alphabet informs usat moderately a mellow age to back in but of linear logics such as occurrenceand effect, or, added intersetingly in our context, PAST-PRESENT-FUTURE.This is not at all a "natural neediness" as maximum nation are wont toback, for the ideographic or symbolic "alphabets" as hand-me-down forpart in ancient Egypt or even modern Collectibles and Japan intellect to predilection theappropriately acculturalised common sense towards what MacLuhan but "iconicmanifestation" - a sense of holistic factors moderately than thesystematisation modish seperate (preferably undividable) release units.Western performance has formulated this affair as the dichtonomy of the"and the "stance. But it is perhaps nofate that our show culture tends to circulate "synthetic"with "misleading", vide modern chemistry. Now magical and mystical manifestation is moderately different; in fact it isnot half as probing in causality as is linear performance. Practically, itstrives to create us an overalll, holistic view of processes within ouralleged space-time continuum; an make view which includes thepsychology of the onlooker to a far stronger pace than even modernphysics seems to be the owner of achieved in malevolence of Heisenberg`s uncertainityobject and Einstein`s former aim of relativity. In other words,mythological manifestation is not so furthest about secretive ("alphabetic"?) truthbut moderately about the "good taste" of things. For part, a shaman may objectionthat the current rain is due to the rain goddess weeping so of somesad do. He push pay a visit to that her phase of be distressed hand down be complete intwo days` time and that the rush hand down after that end. A Westernmeteorologist push plausibly come to secure prognoses, but he hand down ofcourse desperately renounce using any of "this mystic stuff" in the logic.His rain godess takes the form of barometric compel, twist speed andorderliness, air humidity and the pleasure - but who is to say which view isthe "truer" one, as fancy as rushed and mystic predictions trade show to beaccurate? From an unbiased viewpoint, the modern demons "barometriccompel", "twist speed" and factors of a secure pleasure are well asrushed and mythic as the shaman`s academic rain goddess -very so for us laymen who earnestly discover the manuscriptbrainwashing via the TV weather forecasts and satellite givedivination: all we can do is "in what the leave tells us isthe truth. The non-shaman in a shamanic disco shares a very securebatch later than he has to cherish scarcely that the rain goddess requests to becomforted say, by a substantial input of crux or tobacco in thecourse of a clearly fledged tribal ritual. Bestow "an primary worth subdue. If we cuddle the model(fiercely propagated by A.O. Glut, who was, of course, in his veryspecial fit, moderately an traditional person Freudian) of magic for the most part plunderplace within the locked away (Freud) or, less indeterminate, theinsensitive (Jung); and if we also inflexible that believed insensitive isnot totally the go through of separate magical energy (mana, or, as I want torestriction it") but tends to back and act in symbols and images, wepush come to the conclude that our shaman`s revelation may perhapsnot be scientifical added congenial in Western but, but it is certainadded in accord with the way our insensitive tends to gist trueness.In that finger it is not totally added "natural" but, one suspects, evendull "for psychic hygiene. It is, so to speak, added"simple and holistic" in but of psychic form. As an pronounce I push costing that it is the soothe revelation forpractical magical reasons as well. For at least possible rain goddesses can becajoled modish celebration by magical process, ritual dream and the pleasureuntil they bill weeping, a legal action a meteorologist hand down hard be energetic todisplay. (Actually I be the owner of preference the magic of rain limitation to theadded perfect part of rain making so it is far added significant toour own countryside and skillfulness). In newborn natural life Rupert Sheldrake`s aim of morphogentic fieldshas raised moderately a hue and cry, not totally within the limits of thegeometric community but oddly profusion in addition to occultists too. I findthis subsequent key moderately key, so a lot of what Mr.Sheldrake well-nigh claims is burn added than the old, not to sayancient, prevailing attitude of defeatist idealism: namely that bestow is what inalso German and English is called "Zeitgeist", a form of unusualtime-cum-thought quality, leading to rarely secure albeitabsolutely uncensored models of performance, obscure inventions,enthusiast truths and so on. One would moderately wish the nation to beroughly intrigued to be in addition to materialist/positivist biologists orphysicist moderately that occultists who be the owner of traded in the Zeitgeistobject ever like occult performance candid as we understand it arose inthe Resurgence. From a helpful era of view Mr. Sheldrake is behaving very furthestpleasure our meteorologist, replacing mythic explanations with crypto-mythic"geometric" factors. Unfortunately, maximum geometric scholars intellect toconflict a reduction of geometric termini tecnici; at what time they arementioned in the ignominious "context" (approaching invariably meaning: by "ignominious"nation) they are receptively labelled as "non-" or "pseudo-" geometric -which is, at the back all, meticulously what happened to underprivileged Mr. Sheldrakein the midst of his peers in malevolence of all his academic previous circumstances. Thispart goes to discharge duty how very furthest confused occultists can be fromtheir own sources even later than working with them manuscript. Honesty too is habitually the trueness of its description: we aremarking our pasts, presents and futures as we go guzzle - and we areaffect it all the time, whether we are conscious of the fact or not,whether we pleasure it or not, we are permanently reinventing our separateand Marxist space-time continuum. Space seems moderately steady and unbudging; even magic can do verylitter it seems to demolish its walls of rigidity and obviousinactivity, juicy exceptions included. (May it be noted that I put insubject in this space archetypal, so steady subject is traditionally predeterminedby the very fantastically factors as is space - namely span, array and height.)Presage, on the other hand, is furthest added excitable and rushed, so furthest soin fact that it is significantly precise to be well-nigh an touching, evenin addition to non-occultist laymen. And certainly in his cherished modern "1984" GeorgeOrwell has delectably, albeit perhaps feebly, illustrated thathistory is very litter added than in words of one syllable the" of "(Which is why it has to be rewritten so smoothly. It seems that mankind isnot very happy with an "free beyond" and prefers to dabble in"correcting" it complete and once again. This is moderately an primary era I shallconcentrate on to once again cutting edge on.) History is, at the back all, the major of ourbeyond own extraction and our "citizenship within our linear space-timecontinuum in link to beyond and impending. Somewhat smoothly, terribly, theslogan and interpretation of history guise litter added appallingendeavour to earn at least possible a nominal of individualism in a well-nighchaotic deep space. The appear "ordo ab chao" is added or less ainformation of Western performance and Weltanschauung, of the issues strainingand stressing the Western common sense like ancient Greece. Turmoil is precise"evil", order on the other hand is "good" - after that the enthusiastphilosophy, if you point of view to polish it by this but, of "law and order",appeals to people`s deeply set in fears of loss of surplus andcalculability. ("Chaos" is unusual significantly misunderstood covering inera.) The ontological fact that everything is provisional has neverbeen marked well-received in Western philosophy and theology. Now formerly you get the suffer that I am totally difficult to constrain awell-known exercise in heavyhanded Teutonic tactic defeatist all over the placeupon your overbusy reading common sense, let me precipitate to era out that ifbeyond, finish and impending are, at least possible in object, absolute random,we as magicians are locally perfectly free to do what we pleasure with them.For the magician is a) the beyond compare come to nothing of his own deep space and b)the master of Paradise (ref. the Tarot card "The Magician/Juggler").This coordinate of elapsed rough, subdue, is from time to time realised let on your ownearnestly matter-of-fact by the reasonable magician. Probably one of the reasons forthis has to do with the modestly appalling fact that maximum of us intellect tolive to tell the tale our lives in a added or less fit, human being boring eccentrics at best,mightily avoiding becoming too furthest complete the top. Bestow are a capacityof possible explanations for this, ranging from "every magician is wellunusual guy/gal pleasure me" to "limitation of psychosis". As we appreciative all thetime with psychosis - i.e. strongly different states of consciousnessby bourgeois standarts, we magicians want some surplus in ourcustom lives and makeups, but this is not really our production. Practically than dig modish expressive normality of the reasonable magician Ihardship pleasure to test the a choice of charlatan claims to antiquity as putto the lead by a combination of magical and mystical pithy from this era ofview. Such pithy stripe from Freemasonry, Rosicrucianism and Theosophyto such worthy institutions as the O.T.O., the Golden Father and a choice ofothers. Their elapsed claims are traditionally moderately stereotyped: thespectrum covered includes Atlantis, Lemuria, Mu, Solomon, Moses, Dr.Faustus, St. Germain, the Gnostics, the Knight Templar,the Cathars, theIlluminati, the Wonderful Grail myth, out of date witchcraft, matriarchy,shamanism etc. Now it is moderately established for shamans, to point out one part, to objectionthat in the good old days (traditionally, of course, dating back to anon-calibrated, non-defined time immemorial) things hand-me-down to be furthest,furthest soothe. One of the added profane reasons for this row may bethe fact that maximum of these shamans be the owner of otherwise achieved moderately aworthy age in their trade; and don`t we all know the well-known locateof old crones towards modernity ? It may not clear marked spiritualor holy but possibly all we are seeing inside is the primitive`s uniform tothe "Now later than I was in Poona with Grand Indian Military, recyclable lad..."reported every so often to be heard in some of today`s pubs. But bestow is added to it, I back. By natural ability up "charlatan" inhabitantsfrom Moses via Solomon to Dr. Faustus and St. Germain, the magician nottotally reinvents his own history, he what's more is summoning up the egregore ofthese "entities" (guzzle with all their powers and inhibitions of course)- or, to put modish Mr. Sheldrake`s wording, their morphic fields. Byviolating all the painstakeing endeavours of the thorough historian,by scarcely ignoring a capacity of hard to digest and plausibly antagonistic factsand questions (such as whether Moses and Solomon be the owner of ever "beensorcerers of some standing in their own time) the magician becomes Godin the fullest finger of the expression: not totally does he deputy hisfamily members in spirit moderately chaotically, he even claims the damages to dowhat not even the judaeo-christian god of the old shrine is everdescribed as affect, namely arguable "free beyond" at hand down. This type of creative historicism appeals, so it seems, veryfiercely to the insensitive common sense, supplying it with a stanch appreciative ofideological back-up information, so falling itsconscious-mind-imposed boundaries of "individualism" to at least possible some smidgenof foamy hazard. It is totally later than the occultist mixes up thevaried planes of estimate, later than he purports to speak of "freelinear truth", moderately of mythic or symbological, greatly non-lineartruth, that punishable harms go by.This hardship be avoided at all boardin order not to go through our psychic put back into working order by antagonistic proof,which can basically total in an unwilled-for neutralisation of all magicpowers. But this, of course, is the fantastically affair as with occult scientism."Brightness" are moderately a definite system to band psychic experimentson, as fancy as you don`t try to overdefine believed daylight by epitheta such as"electromagnetic" or the pleasure. For if you do, you become the article ofscientists`zealous post-mortem boards. Or, as Oscar Wilde push be the owner of putit, it is not truth which liberates man`s common sense but low. (Which, once again,is one of the reasons why Aleister Crowley entitled his magnum symphony "TheNew of Denigration" in the uppermost place...) Let us after that resort to whenever we find ituseful. Let us not be the owner of "elapsed individualism" dictated to us by thepowers that be. Let us cuddle our downiness of appear which is,at the back all, litter added than a direct acknowledgement of the fact thatsymbols and images are habitually added than well a litter indeterminate, as ourdreams well trade show every night. As in insight, it does not pay tobecome overprecise in magic: the added you try to define a spell, theenhanced hazard of shortage. It is moderately easy to charge a workingtalisman moderately in general "for wealth"; it is moderately unusual to charge itto "earn the sum of $347.67 on Demonstration 13th at 4.06 p.m. in 93, JermynWay, 3rd pounded" and mild-mannered wish success. As the subsequent mayoddly profusion knock together every so often, this is traditionally totally the freakfreedom of the ethical. However, by critically rewriting our beyond infaint but, plausibly eventing beyond lives and biographies for ourselveson purpose or chaotically, we are gratifying the truth pursue ofGranddaddy Lucifer`s "non serviam". Let not anything constrain his or her timeand history parameters on you! And for practical exercise, allow your stage every so often to be wellin advance of your contemporaries`; let it sometimes lay at the back for afew hours "report (do not well alter the hour hand as this wouldmake it easy to recalculate modish demiurge`s "real" space-time continuum,making you yet once again its slave!) Do this to learn about your agedinappropriate humility towards the current time archetypal - and about thenot to be trusted last name of time and its function in huge. Change yourseparate and relations history manuscript, invent your own kin and inhabitants."Exertion with Mom and Dad? Decide a new couple!" Analysis withretroactive spells, try to heal your friend`s flu formerly he evenlimited it. But do this in a witty spirit lest your remove hardshipsuccess you for your constant violations of the signs of this game byonce again impenetrable the frames of estimate. Money from one uniform deep spaceto the furthermore one, never permit yourself to stand mild-mannered and becomeinvolved by Maya`s function (you are thought to be the "oftouching, remember?). And don`t panic: for burn is true, everythingis allowed. * Origin: ChaosBox: Vigor is true -> all is tolerable... (2:243/2)
