Excerpt (Pages 27-30) from Modern Alchemy and Occult Psychology, by D. Lawrence Meredith.

Magik is a conscious process of deconstructing the strict Newtonian and Piagetian spatiotemporal causal world. It is like being put back into the embryonic state of blissful existence. In fact, the state of consciousness in which we develop in utero is that same state that we will ultimately experience psychologically if success emerges in the path of Magik. This process is described in western Magik as becoming a babe in the abyss. The abyss is the state of unification, where the chaos of indifferentiation of all mental stimuli creates a state of timelessness and nonexistence, when thoughts are observed in primitive forms and vague emergences, and the mind is fully accessible. Many researchers (i.e., Freud, Jung, etc.) have suggested and provided some evidence for a type of primordial embryonic consciousness. Consciousness separated from the developed brain that can be fully accessed in adulthood. The concept of embryonic regression, a return to the oceanic natal state of utter indifferentiation, is a topic of immense interest in cognitive psychology. And as said, this analogous prescient state, the natal bliss of pre conceptual consciousness is the initiation into the chaotic realm where one becomes a Magikal Babe in the Abyss. This process is the crux of the Magik and metacognitive path that is discussed in this book. Daath is the name of the Qabalistic sephirot where one plunges into a non-dualistic state of consciousness and begins the final steps for the process of illumination. The abyss, Daath, is a state of primordial entanglement. Daath is the chaos upon which all concept formation is brewed; it is also the infinite process of differentiation from which our mental and psychophysical realities are differentiated. This profound idea is the myth of Tiamat, or Tammuz, the deep, the kthulu of H. P. Lovecraft's stories, the id of Freud, the collective unconscious of Jung, the primal substance of the alchemists, the akasha of the Vedas, the Duat of the Egyptians, [Daath to the Qabalists], and the underworld of the Greeks. Daath is the realm of chaos. It is mysterious, invisible, and secretive. It is considered the realm of occult knowledge. It is mysterious because it’s nature cannot be contemplated. It cannot be contemplated because its entrance is outside the threshold of human reason, it must be entered Magikally. There are characteristics of both of these primordial states of consciousness that do not deconstruct with the annihilation of the physical and causal world. The elements of consciousness that remain and sustain consciousness throughout the process of deconstruction, or regression into the primordial, prenatal state of unitary or rather mono hemispheric consciousness, are the last remaining components of the symbolic spatiotemporal consciousness that enables functionality in the lower developmental stages. The beginning of the breakdown of the strictly censored perception of reality as wholly material, i.e. mind is brain, is the threshold to the abyss, the Qabalistic sphere of Daath. This is the true beginning of metaconsciousness and Magik. Natal consciousness can be symbolized as an alpha consciousness and the illuminated state acquired through deep mental contemplation and ritual and the cognitive restructuring that is effected can be symbolized as a type of omega consciousness. The similarities of these two temporally discrete realms are qualities such as pre-egoic orientation, conceptual and temporal undifferentiation, a state of oneness and primordial unity, meaningless-ness, perceptually and cognitively structure-less, distinction-less, and boundary-less. Freud described this state as oceanic, James as a blooming buzzing confusion, and again Magik calls it the Abyss. The massive impact of entering into a primordial state of consciousness, a state where the mind does not attach meaning and causation to its perceptions and sensations, a world where time does not exist, and motion is not continuous is what typically causes the dispersion of the soul. The dispersion of the soul is the idea that without the proper training, one will not maintain the proper psychical state at death, their central nervous system will become erratic, and their consciousness will disperse into oblivion. Bardo is the process described in the Tibetan Book of the Dead whereby one is guided through death into the afterlife. Bardo describes a process ultimately, where the walls of space and time that materially bind the soul to the body are loosened, and the priest guides the recently deceased through the process where their nervous system ceases operation, and guides them into crystallizing their soul for journeying beyond death and into the Bardo regions. The Egyptian Book of the Dead also dictates the complex procedure and the terrible ordeals that the Khu (one of the characterizations of the Egyptian soul) must undergo after death, when it travels through the millions of years into the immortal realm of Osiris, astrologically located in the constellation Orion. During death, the illusion of the reality of a lawful, reliable, predictable world completely vanishes and the true chaos, the entropy of the realm of the soul and the mind is revealed. In a sense, death and the transmigration of the soul is the return to a state of pre-consciousness, or uni-consciousness of infancy and embryonic existence, before synaptic pruning shaped our perceptions and structured how we process information in the material and causal world. The intense trauma of birth is a complete environmental shift of a catastrophic level. A memory of this event is imprinted into the newborn's memory because the bloodstream of the mother is flooded with ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone), a chemical critical to memory. This is used as an evidence that, contrary to common cognitive theory, neonates are unable to recall memories of birth because they lack the biological neural connectivity that is critical to cognitive development, like memory. In other words, we cannot possibly remember our birth because our brains are not developed yet. However, people do recall memories. So where do these memories exist if not in actual neuronal connections like is commonly believed? Is there a consciousness and memory system that is continuous throughout and separate from that which develops from a mature central nervous system? For instance, mRNA contains memory, as do entire cells, and there's no neural circuitry, so why does science reject the same for the complete underdeveloped organism? It's suggested by some (i.e., Wade, 1996) that prenates and neonates exhibit many types of knowing (i.e., auditory and spatial knowing) before birth, or pre-birth. This knowing may precede and proceed physical birth and death.

Lexicon Linguistics: Demystifying and Liberating Magik from Limiting Language

Since interviewing Daniel Meredith, I have been thinking about fundamental linguistic changes needed to manifest the newly demystified lexicon, predicated on our personal Esoteric experiences. He discussed his concept of a new system having updated protocols and modern linguistics. The latter unleashed a storm of ideas in my mind about how to finally liberate the Esoteric systems from the Slave/Cult, Nazarene virus that has and continues to plague humanity. This will be an area of exploration during the upcoming interview with Daniel. There is nothing wrong with reading, learning and forming opinions, but the critical experiential component cannot be ignored and we will exploit it, so to make the previously unattainable, well, attainable and the Esoteric systems, readily accessible.

After the birth pangs of this new Aeon, those of us who remain and unplugged from the former system of oppression foisted upon us by those who underestimated the human intellect and our ability to work around their illusory monetary and power boundaries, will still be here. By using Esoteric systems of Magikal attainment, in addition to Shamanic Psychedelic substance usage to kick-off the dissolution of ego, to attain a cosmic understanding of our energetic reality, we few will continue to advance and attain our Esoteric and Magikal abilities. The imminent implosion of the system may indeed be a very rough transition, but we few who actually do the work to demystify the so-called "Dark Arts," will be a light for those to use as a guide in a world predicated the true nature of human existence. Linguistics will play a major role in promulgating these self-empowering devices. We are working to change the language of Magik.

MSI: Continuing to blaze a trail, for free, for you.

MSI and the New Aeon: 2012 is Here!

It's a new year at MSI and this is going to be our most exciting year to date. We will be discussing everything from fraudulent esoteric groups that seek to rob people, rather than to provide them any Esoteric benefit, to Matriarchy and the Sacred Feminine, to Cutting edge research into sound, light and color, Shamanism and ways of transcending the matrix. Additionally, we will be establishing our presence on YouTube, where we intend to offer Esoteric instruction, occasional interviews and a more effective way to impart how to live a life without dogmatic restriction or religious ideation.

We feel it is imperative to provide "secrets" others would charge for providing. The new Aeon approaches and with it, the age of information dissemination, be it Alchemical, Magikal, or Entheogen-based Gnostic revelation. We seek to provide specific devices for transcendence, to those seeking to create a new paradigm. This is not a new age forum, but rather, a forum for those wanting to take full responsibility for their reality, as sovereign individuals.

MSI: It's Magik!

MSI Interviews: Greg Kaminsky, Creator, Occult of Personality

Occult of Personality is one of many Internet-based, voice-only interview shows. The differences between this particular show and the other shows are its creator, Greg Kaminsky, the proficient manner in which he conducts his interviews, the Esoteric topics he selects and the high caliber of the guests he interviews. I personally feel he has created the reference standard for others to emulate in the field of Esoteric information dissemination media outlets. He is also quite a character himself and understands what we, as Esotericists, want and need to hear--the word “Occultist” seems stigmatized, which is why I avoid using the term.

Rather than continue my glowing review of both Greg and his show, I will let him use his own words, allowing us to have a small peak into his amazing mind and unique modus operandi.
--------------------

1. Can you tell us about what inspired you to create “Occult of Personality” and what you feel sets it apart from other Internet-based shows?

Greg: My desire to create Occult of Personality began with a passion to learn more about ancient civilizations, world religions, symbolism, and the underlying hidden wisdom which they contain, but only convey to those with eyes to see. I was very curious at the time (2005 – 2006) about how these ancient ideas filtered down through the ages and the paths it took, especially in the West. As the internet developed, I began to find more and more material about occultism, Freemasonry, alchemy, and related subjects online. Unfortunately, some of this material was poorly researched, fundamentally flawed philosophically, and distorted esotericism to a degree that it became unrecognizable. I hope that Occult of Personality plays some role in reversing the ignorance and disinformation about these traditions that we all value so much. Additionally, I had lots of questions that I wanted to ask the recognized authorities on these matters. What better way to do that than to interview them? In this way, I have an opportunity to learn about their work, they can publicize it, and the listeners can (hopefully) benefit from the exchange. While it wasn’t initially conceived as a service in promoting the study and practice of esotericism as a legitimate, living, authentic tradition, it’s kind of turned out that way. Strange how that happens, huh? ;-) As for what sets OoP apart, I think there are four factors: (1) Integrity – the show features sincere, authentic guests. Yes they may have books to sell, but they’re also concerned with the Work. The show is supported by the listeners, not advertisers. I’m quite thrilled by that and hope to keep it that way. (2) Authenticity – I personally read and research everything that’s featured on the show. In most cases, I also have some experience with it. I may not be an adept or expert, but I’m not a naïve newcomer or dabbler either. I am committed to personally learning about the subjects that the show features. I live this, it isn’t a hobby. I joined an esoteric order in 2006. I was raised as a Master Mason in 2010 and have since joined a Royal Arch Chapter and became a 32nd degree Scottish Rite Freemason. I’ve studied Tarot symbolism, Qabalah, and inner Alchemy and spent many hours practicing. I am passionate about these subjects because my own experience has demonstrated the efficacy of these systems to affect real transformation upon an individual and this entire process is completely natural. (3) Quality – I will not publish sub-par interviews. I want to ensure that each and every show meets my own standards. I put a lot of time into the research, questions, editing the recorded audio and all the post-production work. Every show requires about 40 to 60 hours. Tremendous effort is invested into getting the most informative, interesting, and personal conversations. And (4) Unique Guests – OoP features the most unique, informative, and interesting guests. Just take a look at the Available Shows page on the web site. I don’t mean to sound arrogant, but I think that’s a pretty amazing list and the recordings they represent have done some good based on the feedback I’ve received. Perhaps the best thing it offers is the opportunity for listeners to hear about different paths and stimulate them to follow one or more.

2. How do you determine who you are going to interview, and have you ever been surprised by something that one of your guests revealed to you during an interview?

Greg: In order to determine who to interview, I rely on intuition. There are a lot of factors really. Do I think listeners want to hear the person? Will they be entertaining and informative (or at least informative)? What’s the value of their work to me and the listeners? Often, I’ve come across someone whose work I find so remarkable that I’ve interviewed them even though they’re relatively unknown outside of a small circle. More than a few times, I’ve thought that many of these guests were just sort of sent my way, if you catch my drift. Of course, I couldn’t prove this in any demonstrable way, but synchronicity is usually a factor. I’m often surprised when a guest shares some very personal details of their life. The example that really stands out for me was Paul Tisdell in episode 45. When I asked him to tell me how he got involved in esoteric study and practice, I wasn’t prepared to hear about his initiation by a discarnate wisdom master. I could try to describe it here, but I can’t do it justice. Please go listen to it if you haven’t already. I promise it’s worth the time. For me, these personal moments are pure gold. It allows us access to the inner worlds of these people and often remarkable stories of such humanity that words fail me. Another moment of revelation was when Timothy Hogan told me that he has been present for the transmutation of metals on more than one occasion. I think this was in the membership section interview. When he said this I just about fell out of my chair because for someone of his stature to admit that is a shock. I want to say that I’ve been extremely fortunate for all the wonderful guests who’ve graced the show and they are the stars of this project.

3. What have you learned about the esoteric community as a whole, since you began producing “Occult of Personality?”

Greg: I realize that OoP covers a wide range of traditions under the umbrella of occultism. However, I don’t really view it as a community, but rather small groups of specialists that may have tangential interests, but are only connected philosophically or in limited nodes. Although I used to believe that esotericism was similar regardless of the form it took, I now believe that this downplays the very relevant differences and distinguishing characteristics of specific traditions. While different systems may use similar practices or symbolism, each is its own tradition and this makes community more an idea than a reality, in my opinion. I do think that this may be changing with movements like Free Illuminism and Vanese McNeill’s Great Network. What else? There are many kind and wonderful people involved in esoteric study and practice. I’ve been fortunate enough to meet and talk with many of them. These writers and teachers are a blessing and their work is a service to humanity. But there are also predators. Discernment is often in short supply. Based on my studies, this has likely always been the case. There are true sages and holy persons. If you’re fortunate to encounter one, keep your eyes and ears open. And for each sage there are probably 10 charlatans. You’re more likely to encounter a few of these, so also keep your eyes and ears open. Unfortunately magnetic personalities and con artists prey on those seeking to learn. If it costs a lot of money, then it is not worth the price. Real wisdom and power requires effort and work. It cannot be bought and paid for with currency. Finally, I want to mention that as students and practitioners, we’re all heirs to these traditions that we venerate and it is our work that will perpetuate and grow our traditions, or if we fail, the price is stagnation and ossification.


4. Do you personally use any type of esoteric system(s), and if you do, will you tell our readers about it (them)?

Greg: Yes, I use several. I’m a Freemason. I study and practice various forms of Magick, including Thelema. I am always learning more about Qabalah (including NAEQ, of course). I meditate. I practice inner alchemy and study kundalini response extensively. I have received Points Chauds and engage in various energy practices involving them. I am a Free Illuminist. I practice divination using numerology and Tarot. I have experience studying and practicing Reiki and yoga. Other Eastern modalities that I’ve employed include Dzogchen meditation and the radical non-dualism of Sri Nisargardatta Maharaj. These have all proven effective for me and I believe that if a practitioner is earnest, there is the potential to attain success. There is no substitute for experience and my understanding of these subjects is completely informed by the fact that I don’t just study them. This is my life. Let me clarify. It isn’t simply that I’m involved with numerous esoteric studies and practices and run a podcast with interviews about these subjects. I’m also attending Harvard Extension School as a graduate degree candidate in Medieval Studies. I’m planning on doing my thesis on Western esotericism, of course. I also work at my state’s Grand Lodge of Masons on nights and weekends while I’m going to school. OoP is made by an occultist for other occultists (and dabblers). This is important and I think it comes across in the recordings.

5. What do you think about the current world situation and do your thoughts about it affect the process you use to select guests for your show?

Greg: The world is in crisis, but humanity is becoming more aware of the situation. The Occupy movements across the globe are an indication that some segment of the population has started to awaken to action. There are so many areas which require serious attention that it can be overwhelming. Ultimately, I believe that we should purify our inner world in order to effectively produce true transformation of the outer. Luckily, there are many people out there (like those reading this interview!) already engaged in this work. That does not mean that we should lock ourselves away until we attain the body of light before protesting or working for change in the world. It does mean that a wisdom master is bound to be more effective in changing the world. This was expressed eloquently by Mark Knight in a recent interview. So I think yes, current events do affect the guest selections to some extent. I think Neil Kramer would fit into that category as well, along with Douglas Lain and Scarlet Imprint. Initiates have the opportunity to be beacons of light and broadcast hope in these troubled times. We are trained in the use of will to affect changes in consciousness. This is what we do. Even a small word of encouragement or gesture of support can go further than you may think. Ideally our studies and practices should not be an escape from the world, but rather attune us better to what is really happening, in order that we may act accordingly.

I want to thank Ronnie and all the readers of MSI: Universal Thelemic Gnosticism for this opportunity. I hope you found it worthwhile, and if so, please check out occultofpersonality.net for more fascinating interviews!

“Do What thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law. Love is the Law. Love Under Will.”

------------------

Excellent responses!

I’m sure you’ll agree that Greg has quite a bit of credibility within a field where few actually do and that his out-of-the-box thinking made his show the reference standard that it is!

Again, Greg can be heard at Occult of Personality, which is also mirrored at the Occult of Personality Facebook page. You can support his endeavor in one or both of two ways; by becoming a member of the site, giving you exclusive access to more high-end media or by making a donation, as Occult of Personality is funded strictly by your donations. MSI encourages everyone to give it a listen to see if you agree with us.

***FULL DISCLOSURE***

I have proudly donated to support Greg’s show, Occult of Personality and MSI has been listed on at least two episodes as a financial contributor/supporter. I personally encourage everyone to do the same. It costs money to produce high quality audio and to promote the site on the Internet; Greg does this out of his own pocket, so every dollar helps.

An Introductory Magikal Model of the Human Memory System

Excerpt from: The Journal of Magik and Experimental Cognition Volume I Number 1

The human memory system, of course which is CRITICAL to Magik, has yet to be fully associated with the actual biological brain. This is probably because contrary to mainstream cognitive psychology the memory is not the sum of its parts. However, there are researchers that do touch upon an esoteric magical model of human cognition (i.e., Fist). And other psychologists (i.e., Cowan, 2010) suggests that both memory capacity and memory processing are both developmental, which therefore suggests that human memory can continue to be developed through life, and into old age. A critical feature of the Magikal doctrine.
The 4 part metacognitive model offered here consists of the long term memory, short term memory, working memory, and a central executive memory. There are three basic processes in this model, rehearsal, where information is rehearsed mentally in the working memory so that it can be memorized, encoding, where the information enters into the short term memory and then the long term memory, and retrieval, where the information is recalled back into working memory from long term or short term memory.



An important feature of the working memory, which will be briefly discussed here, is known as the phonological loop. It is a sort of inner voice that is used to manipulate and crystallize cognitions. Some psychologists (i.e., Repovs and Baddeley, 2006) suggest that the working memory and therefore the phonological loop are associated with abstract thinking. Using this logic, it seems that the phonological loop (i.e., working memory) had to evolve contemporaneously with the emergence of language or the proto-languages, because it is inherently tied to language in some concrete form. Psychologist Julian Jaynes goes into this type of developmental trajectory in his The Origins of Consciousness and the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind. If this actually did occur, and working memory and all the powerful abilities that rely upon it developed contemporaneously with language, what was the earlier form of this mechanism (i.e., the phonological loop)? Would it have been more of a metaphysical symbol system? Was memory before language based upon symbols and not language? This of course is a profound thought, and would generate en entire different cognitive basis and an entire new universe of possibilities in terms of complex cognition. However, it is a chicken or the egg question.
Abstract thinking, like ruminating about the future or when involved with a creative task or problem solving task, is clearly a powerful cognitive power, and is absolutely critical to successfully practicing Magik. Having knowledge of the future, and to be able to contemplate future contingencies is clearly dependent upon a strong form of working memory. A possible point of meditation, or for deepening one’s introspective cognitive powers, may be, is working memory (i.e., your passing thoughts and immediate strength of recall ability regarding) a group of items or possibilities being cycled through a process, or are they all present at once and they are being isolated by attention, and therefore only appear to be occurring through time? Attempting to meditate upon this conundrum will produce wonderful results.
Another interesting idea regarding working memory is whether it’s an emergent property. This is a provocative idea, because what would have been the cognitive process from which working memory emerged evolutionarily, and is there an animal model that could provide a type of cognitive evolutionary narrative to working memory? Much more will be said about these four components at a later date.
However, briefly, it should be noted that one of the most occult of all powers is the power of attention. Attention’s teleological origin is unknown. Psychologist Arthur Reber noted that the information stored in the mind far exceeds what can actually be expressed. What controls what’s expressed? Attention is what controls and guides behavior and cognition, and therefore memory. When attention is discussed in psychological literature, it is often given an almost mystical relationship with human cognition, and the operational definition of attention is rarely given. Really, attention is like a ghost in the machine- an invisible but powerful force which drives human cognition and guides the what and where that dictates and orients behavior. Attention is sometimes used as a crutch to prop up theories that seem to have no solid bottom. In one model (see Anderson, 1995) it is said that encoding is done by ‘ACT moving its attention over the visual array.’ As already said, suggesting that attention is at the bottom of a process and not fully accounting for what attention actually is and how it emerges in the first place is a serious problem with most cognitive theories of memory Another interesting question would be, is there a difference between the type of attention we have in regards to an event like a bright flashing light, or loud sound, than with the type of attention we have when we are in deep thought about a problem or issue?
Attention is critical to being successful in almost everything, but no formulas exist to strengthen it. PPPP is such a formula, Prediction, Projection, Patience, Power.
Prediction is fundamental to high order cognition. Memory, and rumination upon the future, and plotting and speculating upon future contingencies, is one of the most powerful and little understood of all cognitive processes, except for the most fundamental of all mysteries, which is concept formation. Prediction involves a powerful working memory, because the amount of predictive possibilities one can weigh, is associated with the power of their working memory, and ultimately the ability to predict is correlated to the known possibilities.
Projection involves creating a temple both physically and mentally so the mind can enter into it.
Patience is the critical aspect of the P.P.P.P. formula, it is of course the process by which fascination, or worse obsession, occurs. This is the stage where the Magikal effect occurs, before this point it is all mundane material work, after, however, the Magus embeds the Magik purpose.
Power is the ability to gain wisdom from experience.
And regarding concept formation, which is the secret to all Magik, this process of bringing forth material from the un/subconscious in the form of a creative product or a creative unit in the firm of an idea, it is regressed back unto the subconscious then brought forth once again to become either a development if an idea, or the creation of one. This is the alchemical/creativity process. This process, Martindale (1999) developed into the now popular cognitive theory of creativity using the polar model of conscious and primordial, of in term of basic biological metaphoric language, ascending and descending.
Fundamental to human metacognition is what's called 'attention.' A proper definition of attention is needed; it is at this point in psychology a 'ghost in the machine,' much like Darwin's teleological conundrum of purpose. In fact, it can be said, that attention is to cognition what purpose is to evolution.
What does this mean for Magik? It means that as far as the occult, and how tendencies in human biology are not able to account for themselves, and that when psychology is taken, biology will be dominant in its perceived influence, although still no cause exists. However, with attention and purpose, it is a chicken or the egg- does biology direct attention, or does psychology? And is psychology different than biology, or is it a hallucination? Further, what is the function of purpose and attention, and are they different? All these problems entrench the literature of memory and attention.

Excerpt from 'Psychology, DNA, and Magik.'

The Fool (excerpt from Psychology, DNA, and Magik, Alcyone Volume I, Number 2, p.202-214, not including footnotes, or references)



The Tarot itself can be divided into 3 basic sections, which are the 22 Trump cards or Major Arcana, the 40 Minor Arcana, and the 16 Court cards. Among other things, the 22 Trump cards each have an association with a Hebrew letter. The letter Aleph is associated with the Fool card.
Aleph is the spiral of the galaxy, which represents both the birthplace of the sun, our star, and it also represents the birthplace of each person’s consciousness, their individual solar center. The movement implied in the shape of Aleph is swirling, just like our galaxy. For this reason, the Fool is thought to have an extra association, even an interchangeability with the final Trump card, the Universe card, to achieve the formulas I.A.O. and O.A.I.
In the Magikal philosophy of S.S.S. (the Order of the Sun, the Snake, and the Star) there’s a special meaning in the Fool card and its association with Aleph, which is that the center of the Milky Way galaxy is thought to be the gate to the other world; which is the Qabalistic world of creation, or the Supernal World of Atziluth, where stars are not only born, but from where they continue draw the massive energy they need to be maintained. This gateway provides a pathway or connection between each person and the center of the galaxy. This gateway is entered through a neural interface in which the Sun connects to each person through their mind by electromagnetic and radioactive waves. These waves stimulate and alter people’s neurochemical patterns, and therefore their perception and interaction with reality. Because each person has differing thoughts, the Sun’s neurological and therefore cognitive influence is different for each person. The purpose of the Magikal process of S.S.S. is to crate a conscious environment in which the powerful forces of the Sun can direct the individual more personally. The Sun is like a massive radio transmitter, except the transmissions are genetic information and the receivers are people and other life forms on Earth. The journey that one’s consciousness makes if they’re successful during life in strengthening their Ka, Khabs, and Khu, is represented as traveling into the realm of Asar, across the seas of millions of years, across the Duat, which is a Light journey into the factory of stars whereby one further enters into the City of the Pyramids. Such is the true doctrine that’s at the bottom of all esotericism and Magik.
Also important to Aleph, and the Fool card, is the Magikal formula I.A.O., and its inverse, O.A.I.. I.A.O. has many levels of symbolism; the most basic is the Egyptian god forms ISIS, APOPHIS, OSIRIS. The goddess Isis symbolizes the formula of birth, or initiation. The arch fiend Apophis symbolizes destruction, or abandonment. The god Osiris symbolizes resurrection, or adeptship.
On a practical level, I.A.O. represents three relative phases of any new undertaking. When there’s a new undertaking, usually at first there’s a phase of excitement and deep interest, when everything is new and mystery is still a powerful motivation. This beginning stage of excitement and newness is the Isis phase, the virgin phase. Then inevitably the Apophis phase begins. Boredom leads one to question the motivation and point of the new work. Often, due to a feeling of discouragement, one may begin to project their hate and disappointment of themselves onto their aspiration, people often begin to disdain what one has initially set out to accomplish. One’s thoughts begin to be deceptive. Moving forward becomes tedious and painful during the Apophis phase. Often one must force oneself to continue. This is typical when trying to master hatha yoga or any other difficult task.
However, if one works through the tedium and discomfort, exhilaration occurs. This release and rediscovered energy is the Osiris phase. It’s a resurrection of a new dawn. A new excitement offers a fountain from which the individual draws a new current and a new approach by which the work can be completed.
People are generally not truly focused until the three phases of this process have occurred. Mostly, people abandon their goal (learning a language, learning a musical instrument, etc.) during the Apophis phase. This leaves them unable to ever actually observe their full potential. Potential and Magikal success are just façades for people who never attempt to master something; in the case of Magik, mastering oneself.
The nature of I.A.O. and O.A.I. is in our perception of time and movement. Great mysteries of the New Aeon are wrapped in these two formulas. By the formulas of I.A.O. and O.A.I. the Fool makes his way across the face of the Earth as he wills, to suckle upon the emergent Light which draws him back into the great womb and universal cosmic egg.
As I.A.O., the fool in the Fool card becomes the magus in the Magus card; thereby gaining an understanding of the mystery of time. The Fool marches with the gods of Time and ultimately morphs into the *LORD*, but first as a strong man who is upon the face of the Earth and who stands before the mighty throne of annihilation, as will be seen in the Magus card. This is the concept of the Giborum, or Asar, whose myth is embedded into the cult of the constellation of Orion. As it states in the Book of Job in the Old Testament:

'Can thou bind sweet influences of the Pleiades, or loose the band of Orion.'

To bind the belt of Orion is a dual reference. One reference is to the actual location, the Orion constellation, and the binding of the alien race to some location, like being sequestered or quarantined, and another reference is to the binding of the races genetically.
This notion of binding is also associated with space and time, and their apparent inseparability, and one of the great secrets of occult science is that time and space are not so deeply interconnected, and knowledge of both time and space in their true nature can transform our biological world through powerful metabolic ways. Science confirms this, but most people don’t understand how this is useful in their practical everyday lives. The missing key is the intuition that is gained through the practice of ritual Magik. The powerful Magikal formula represented by the Fool and by the alchemical element air, is the nature of time. Until time is vanquished; we will be transformative entities, and thus, not gods, and not even like gods.
In the system of S.S.S., the element air is associated with the Rays in the Rays of the Temples of the City of ON that begin with the letter T: Temperance, Truth, and Transcendence.
Air is in constant contact with the Earth. And, as Magicians, it’s known that we are involved in a chemical battle with the material world, because the chemical substrates upon which our perceptions arise neurologically are being manipulated by genetically modified food and a media web of fear based propaganda.
Initiates of S.S.S. understand that their DNA is under attack, and that their mind is the gate to their DNA, therefore they begin to learn to interact with their DNA through powerful psychological rituals; rituals analogous to the food that transforms us metabolically and genetically.
Aleph therefore represents a swirling storm of neurochemical chaos which is the substances upon which our perceptions are encoded, projected, stored, and recalled. This is a system of a type of fractal symbolism which is embedded into the universe, and which Magik works to reveal.
Usually there’s a psychological barrier that inhibits people from really understanding Magik; the inability to let perceptions arise without actual external stimuli. This psychological barrier distresses the entire organism and metabolically forces the person into a repressive and anxious state. Although functional in society, people are in a fog of disconnected limbic behaviors. The limbic system is the system of the brain that deals with automatic process, for instance the fight or flight mechanism is a function of the limbic system. The limbic system consists of parts of the brain such as the amygdala, thalamus, hypothalamus, etc. These parts deal with emotion, and emotional memory. Because of people’s diet and the low level cognitive stimulus in which they immerse themselves, they’re forced into a constant state of heavily influenced limbic behaviors, and what’s perceived can’t be processed because of neurochemical inhibitions. This destroys creativity. And without creativity there’s no Magik. All this is associated with Aleph and therefore the Fool card, because of the time/space constraints involved with neural transmissions.
It’s been found recently by neuroscience that there are nonlocal occurrences occurring in the brain. Non-local phenomenons are when matter, or information, in this case information that the senses perceive as a stimulus, are transmitted through space and time without having moved through either space or time. They have been unbound from space and time.
In other words, when an image hits our retina, our brain seems to know what the image actually is before the photons transmitting the image even get to the brain. The perception of the object and the brain’s cognitions of the object seem to be happening simultaneously, and if not simultaneous, certainly the process seems to be happening much faster than neurons are able to process information and move it around in the brain. This of course, is the essence of creativity.
Creativity is both the essence of Magik and the product of it. Creativity is both the path and the goal. Such is the swirling chaos of the chemical storm that we call neurochemistry.
Aleph is also an alpha wave, which represents a specific function or coordination of the electro neurochemical system. A function that’s critical to generate particular electrical frequencies needed for particular human behavioral, hormonal, and metabolic processes. This technology is the basis for modern social manipulation, and it’s researched heavily by psychologists in various disconnected domains.
Cosmically speaking, alpha waves are an alchemical radioactive force. It’s alchemical because they cause an atom to thrust one of its protons or neutrons out from its nucleus and into an orbital position, thus transmuting it into an electron and altering the atomic number of the atom. This process occurs between Argon and Hydrogen atoms.
For this reason, Aleph is the path on the Tree of Hrumachis that leads from Kether to Binah; because the synergetic Magikal current that moves throughout the paths on the Tree can move multi directionally, either in the direction that moves from Kether to Binah or from Binah to Kether.



If the Magikal current that circulates throughout the paths on the Tree moves equally multi directionally, then Aleph not only has an interchange with Tau, but actually becomes Tau. This means that Aleph represents all 4 seasonal aspects of Polaris, the North Star, which is Axis Mundi, the home of Nuit, north, and the direction of Magik, while Tau represents only the aspect of Polaris at the winter solstice. Really, this is all simply an esoteric code for the prehistoric cataclysm which resulted in an ambulation of the North Pole and a longer year, and serves as a warning for the coming pole-shift.
The first noticed pre-effect of the coming shift was on January 11, 2011, at 1:11pm in Greenland. This numerical sequence of 1/11/11, 1:11 is the resonance of the Fool as Aleph and 111, formulating the mathematical equation 0=11, XI=0. By Gematria Aleph equals 111.
Such ambiguity is the association and Magikal ordeal of the I.A.O./O.A.I. symbolism of the north, and Aleph as both first and last.
This is in fact the formula of I.A.O. when applied to the Qabalistic formula of the Supernal triad, which means that each of the sephirot in the Supernals, which are Kether, Chokmah, and Binah, are actually one in the same. That means that once one has moved beyond Daath, or the Abyss, everything is the same.
The ARRARITA formula is a Magikal formula which represents the unity of all things. ARRARITA means God is One, Unum Deium, which is again a reference to the 111 resonance and the Fool as Aleph.
The references to a ONE GOD, and the powerful psychological influence that this had upon humankind is greatly underestimated. Really, the monotheistic mindset which is so often thought to be a trap and an enslaving doctrine is in fact an intensely powerful cognitive tool. To have the brain controlled and intellectually attentive to one single idea or concept, one GOD so to speak, of which the essence can not be known, has given humankind the powerful ability to speculate upon abstract things. And for this reason, the intense creative urges that the spiritual human being possesses can be suppressed by splintering God and or banishing God from society altogether. There is no greater killer of creativity than a Godless mind.
As O.A.I., the Fool becomes the primeval god Pan, Pan, whistling his sweet tune from high mountains and caves and holier places, he awaits the birth of a Sun from outside this one universe, and moving younger back into the dwells of the forgotten, into the ancient lands of nothing, far beyond the great City of the Pyramids of ON. Yea!- moving backwards into the averse, pan goes on his way.
Aleph means ox in Hebrew, thus we again see the symbol of the power of movement. In the New Aeon of Hrumachis for which the O.Z Tarot Deck was specifically designed, we attempt to expand our symbolism and language to depict the cosmology of Thelema and Sa’ON, and also modern science.
The ox was a symbol of the matriarchal age and its associated cults. There were extreme metabolic advantages gained through the domestication of animals and farming. This allowed societies to eat in abundance, which in turn provided the enormous energy that the modern human brain demands. The caloric intake offered by tactical farming and its evolution alongside social cultures no doubt was a feat of high Magik. It furthered human consciousness by transforming and advancing the entire human potential through metabolic means.
Food generates thoughts, and that can never be forgotten. Not until people are not terrified of starving do they seem human. When humans are in fear, they act like animals. But humans are not simply animals, and this must also never be forgotten.
Here, then, the Fool is the Milky Way. Further, Aleph is the swirling motion of the swastika because as already said, that represents the Sun and the pole star in all it various phases. The swastika is Ursa Major rotating around Polaris. Therefore it’s a solar symbol, but the symbol is SOLAR NORTH, which is the direction of the Magik of the Septagram.
Also, it’s a symbol of the Great Equinox, and the cyclic precession; the calendric oath by which the Magicians move upon the face of the Earth, shedding their skin, to roam uncountable fathoms beneath the sheen and glisten of truth and the LIGHT of the *LORD*. Therefore it’s also associated with the ancient Sumerian and Babalonian god Tamuz, or Damuzi, who is known as the Roman god Janus from where we get the name for the month January, because the Fool is the first card, and gazes both ahead and behind, as Janus or January is the first month and gazes to the future and back into the past. This is the legend of Parsifal and the tale of Siegfried in the Wagnerian operas and Nordic mythology.
This adventure, this gnosis, this set of circumstances and dreaded Abysses, this unknown fear and fatigue, this LOVE and WILL, all this is the path of the Fool. Civilization upon civilization, whether by Thuban or Polaris or Vega, or by another star, they lighted and navigated their way across the face of the dark Earth, as each person was each set upon their own journey into the vast and exciting universes and worlds of the blazing star that awaited them.
The Fool, as the beginning Magikal initiate, shall go forth as a god into the beaming white Light of the center of all, to experience the crystalline illumination of the Mother of the Father of Stars.
The Fool is the cross and the Galaxy is the ox. Thus the Fool is the leg, which is the ancient Egyptian symbol for the constellation that holds Polaris.
In the traditional Tarot the Fool is depicted with the angle of his stick moving into the Sun, which is the falling Sun because it’s shown as white. The beaming white sun is a symbol of the white dog of Scorpio, the fifth sphere, Mars, Giburah, the lands of the Giborum.
In the O.Z. Tarot the Fool is depicted as an Aleph bursting forth out of the sky, signaled by the cross, the Great Bear, which is the North Star’s constellation Ursa Major. And as will be seen in the Hierophant card, the Fool will become the constellation Cygnus, which is the Magik phoenix of the Pleistocene, and the constellation the Summer Triangle.
All this is the beginning of time, and the end of time. This all refers to the first time, the zero point of the great Platonic year, Zep Tepi as it’s called in Khemetic. These again, are all references to the lion, and the lion serpent, the Sphinx, or Hrumachis, and the mixing of human DNA with the rebel extraterrestrials from the direction of the constellation Orion.

Magick or coincidence?.

Skeptics nearly always bring up the term "coincidence" when setting out to disprove the validity of a magickal result, are their arguments justified or just a misunderstanding of the the true nature of magick and "coincidence"?.

There are many examples of coincidence, some simple, such as bumping into someone you know at an unexpected destination, others can be a little more complex and harder to explain. A few months ago the artist friend of mine "John Fisher" became obsessed with painting dragons, as it was his coming birthday his son decided he would try to find him a good resource book of dragon artwork, so he went the local bookshop and enquired if they had such a book in stock, a few moments later the sales assistant returned with a huge volume of dragon art, exactly what he'd been looking for, on opening the book he discovered that it had been compiled by an artist named "John Fisher!", the artist son is a true sceptic, but knowing that I have an interest in these matters decided to tell me of his experience.

The above example could be just put down to a simple if strange case of coincidence, but what if there is some form of deeper activity going on?, could it be that reality was telling John to carry on drawing dragons, or that he was wasting his time and to give up as it had already been done?.
It is my opinion that there is no such thing as coincidence, I believe that coincidences are signs written into the fabric of reality that if fully understood help to guide our lives in one direction or another.

So we come to the subject of "can we prove that magickal activity created a desired result?". skeptics will tell you that the results created by magickal activity are almost impossible to prove and the term coincidence will once again rear is ugly head, but if we take a more scientific approach to the subject it may become possible to validate our work.

If we take the time to stringently record our objectives, such as "money", and then record the exact details of the ritual, such as the time and date it was carried out, weather conditions, movement of the moon, along any other fine details that may effect the ritual, such as state of mind, diet etc, we can then wait for a given period of time for the result to manifest, and yes, if the money manifests it could still be put down to "coincidence", but if we then repeat the ritualistic experiment under exactly the same conditions and we get a result within the same time set period of time it then reinforces the notion that our activity has indeed created that result.

If we carry this further and repeat the ritual on several occasions and yet again produce a positive result we come to the the position where we can calculate coincidence against probability, the sceptics will still maintain their opinion but the argument towards the result being created via our magickal activity has shifted in our favour.
This is why we should try to keep as precise a record as we can of all that we are working towards, it gives us the option to check, re-check and evaluate our personal progress or failures.

On a higher level, we can learn to read the hidden meaning of the signs and "coincidences" that effect our daily lives, rather then taking the experienced "coincidences" at face value, we should try to decipher their intended effects upon the destiny of our lives.

Excerpt from ALCYONE volume 1 number 2 (pages 44-68)

However, though difficult, it’s critical for people to interact with the subtle aspects of their environment, and really socially this type of developmental process, or initiation, is embedded into the world’s mythologies.
Symbols are a powerful occult force that’s at the heart of all human cultural experience. Symbols can be used as a tool of suppression as is the case in politics, or it can be used for liberation as is the case with metaphysics and especially Magik.
The reason that people confuse Magik and basic symbolism is because the nature of a Magikal symbol can’t be conveyed through language. Magikal symbols are much different than the ordinary types of symbols known and used by everyone. The main difference between a symbol used for Magikal purposes and a symbol used for mundane purposes is that a Magik symbol has an entirely personal definition, and therefore is only potent to the individual that actually created the symbol. Symbols that are not created for a specific purpose are ambiguous and worthless; they are not Magikal unless they are geared for a specific intent.
Non individualized symbols have ambiguous meanings not because of the inherent nature of the symbol’s relationship with the perceiver, but because the perceiver has been in contact and subjected to the descriptions and biases of other people regarding the symbol. This alone demeans the symbol, and causes a degeneration of its Magikal potency. Thus, it’s mundane, like a county map or a grocery store receipt, or a political slogan.
For a Magik symbol to be comprehended it must be directly experienced. Direct experience is the thesis of the Magikal system that’s put forth in this book. Psychologist William James understood the necessity of direct experience in order for people to understand the reality and nature of something and how it affects them. James used the example of a child and a flame, to understand fire and the full nature of fire someone must first put their finger to the flame and get burnt.
Similarly, to begin to understand Magik one must begin to do Magik. One must move forward working their Magikal regimen knowing that it’s a technology in which symbols are used to interface with the human nervous system. Using symbols to interact with human neurology will in turn transform and unlock dormant aspects of the human genome that need to be activated for further Magikal initiation. Therefore, ultimately, Magik must be experiential.
The reason that symbols can be used for such powerful cognitive purposes is that symbols are configured with both historical and personal components. Language, gestures, icons, and artifacts are all types of symbols with highly sophisticated personal and cultural interpretations and explanations, and none of which’s meanings are fully transmittable from one person to another. In this sense, all symbols contain secrets because although people may explain their interpretation of a symbol, they would still be unable to explain their complete perception and their fullest conceptualizations about the symbol and how it affects them mentally, intellectually, emotionally, and spiritually.
Human behavior in the modern world is mostly symbolic. People don’t usually consider that most of their behavior is symbolic. Therefore people do not intentionally and willfully interact with the symbolic realm or repertoire that has covertly been generated around them over the course of their lives. Unfortunately, mostly people’s symbolic repertoire is created for them through suggestions and impressions made by culture and media.
Culture is a man-made social network, a simulacrum by which we can all experience the same reality and experience the same sensations through the same coherent symbol system. Once this matrix of sameness is perceived, the knowledge of it becomes the force that thrusts the Magician into the Abyss. This is one of the great Ordeals of S S S . If the matrix of sameness is not perceived, it will provide countless pleasures for a person.
Magikal symbols ultimately give human beings a cognitive type of depth perception. Magicians reprogram their whole psyche with symbols and thus enter into a whole new realm of reality with which most people’s central nervous system has not been exposed and therefore can not perceive. Once people enrich their lives with the colorful and powerful use of intentional and Magikal symbolism, they will begin to experience the world in a new and individual way.
There are many kinds of symbols. The most powerful symbols are of course those that interact neurologically with human emotions and empathy. Potent iconic imagery, such as that found in mythology, inspires the perceiver with reality transforming cognitions, which then will generate new neural pathways and neural connections which over time will formulate new concepts in the mind of the perceiver, and thus a whole new reality. Some of the most potent symbols today, although ill used and serve to oppress people’s individuality and creativity, are money, corporate logos, and political iconography. The Magikal power of symbols is that they generate an actual neural substrate in the form of electricity, chemicals, and electromagnetic energy, upon which people can weave the fabric of their reality or various realities, store that information, and use it to interface with unknown parts of the universe. Correctly used, the brain is a technology for activating a Magik portal.
O n a practical psychological level, symbols are aggregates of visual representations of often highly complex and far reaching concepts that lose something when put into a simple lexicon. When the meaning of a Magikal symbol is attempted to be explained, the essence typically can’t be captured.
In society, people spend lots of conscious energy trying to extract the various kinds of information that the social world has embedded into symbols. The speed at which one operates and can utilize symbolic and coded information within any symbolic system depends not only upon one’s comprehension of the symbol system itself, but also of the complexity of the occult nature of symbols, themselves, and the world around them. In other words, with symbols- context is everything!
One of the most mysterious systems of symbols is words. Words are intensely symbolic. Words are not just practical, but are also hieroglyphs and sigils which have been both socially and individually imbued with vast meaning. Words are embedded with essence and principles which empower it to invoke concepts and images in the mind of the perceiver. For instance, seeing the word windmill will no doubt almost instantaneously cause the image of a windmill to invade your mind. This is so automatic that it’s practically unstoppable. This example is just a simple illustration of the extreme power of language.
In fact, language is a social grimoire, and it’s entirely overlooked as a Magik book of spells.
The English language may be one of the most potent Magikal grimoires currently on the planet. Just think of the powerful impact English has had upon the Earth and the immense power that the fluent English speaker commands in the modern world. For this reason an English Qabala is used by S S S , as dictated by the Law of the Old Aeon in Liber Legis in 1904 (the Book of the Law).
The power of sound is described in many ancient texts. When sound is combined with meaning, it generates a powerful cognitive realm that ultimately provides the mental associative vibration and symbolic substrate upon which human development occurs.
Psychology adopted the motto nature vs. nurture to describe what affects development. Nature and nurture imply the convergence and divergence of two key components of human reality— genetics and environment. These two components are also of critical importance to modern Magik. In S S S , nature is DNA, nurture is ritual. These two components are linked and held together by sound, and sound is ultimately just a byproduct of movement.
One of the ramifications of language and Magik is that it changes people’s perceptions, their behavior, and thus their personal experience. People’s personal experience of course plays a critical role in the types of meanings and interpretations they imbue to particular symbols and how they will use the symbols. For this reason, a massive effort exists to collectivize culture, so that there is no discrepancy in what certain things mean. This is the story of the Tower of Babel, a global language and system of control. This illusion is broken with the initiation of Tipareth and the dawn of a person’s Khabs.
In modern society, one of the great barriers keeping people from Magikal success is that they are told by science that they are animals. And, animals behave in expected ways. Psychology has hashed out much of the mysterious nature to animal behavior in behaviorist laboratories. Many behaviors have been classified and how to systematically manipulate animal behavior has been largely revealed. Once behaviors are classified and understood they are said to be stereotypical of the particular animal and are expected to be predictable.
Similar to the way in which psychologists scrutinize and manipulate animal behavior in laboratories in order to learn to control the animal’s behavior, institutions inside society perform the same types of manipulations to control people, this is the origin of the matrix of sameness. The matrix of sameness is actually perceived as stereotypes and expected behaviors that are transmitted to people symbolically through cultural systems such as media and entertainment. People adopt stereotyped behaviors because they are lured by the power that these behaviors wield over others, which is of course an illusion. Powerful media-manufactured personalities which are known to succeed in the man-made social world are adopted by people because of the reliability of these prepackaged and mass produced personalities.
Psychologist Lev Vygotsky suggested that animals are unable to perform behaviors that are meaningless to the context of an actual situation. They are incapable of performing actions which are arbitrary or sense-less. They are devoid of creativity. Suppressing someone’s creativity is Black Magik, as it dehumanizes people and makes them act like laboratory rats. It’s critical not to underestimate the powerful influence that the media has upon all of our cognitions and thus all of our behaviors. Really, our entire social reality is a holographic construct of the media, including not only our thoughts, but the words we use to describe our thoughts. The homogenous matrix in which we all exist is really just one massive operating system by which we all must operate. Magik breaks the grip that this terrible conditioning has upon us, and gives us the tools by which we can function in society after being unhooked from the collective and suppressing social system. As already said, the power to overcome this influence is first discovered in the sphere of Tipareth when one confronts their Angel.
It’s through reductionism and the parsimony of human behavior that rationalism fulfills its exploits of humanity. This is all done in the name of progress. And, as the old cliché goes- for the good of the many, which is of course a lie and a talismanic slogan to sedate someone’s personal ambition and subject them to the herd mentality. The herd mentality is the invisible force of social control, the death of humankind, the enslaving current of the Black Brothers and the New World Order, which is of course world socialism and world communism. Ultimately, the conscious (and unconscious) mental energy of the herd supplies energy to the matrix.
Magik abhors a uniform culture and the culling of individual liberty. Therefore Magik’s enemies are the homogenizers, the communists, the Marxists, and the socialists. Culturalization and socialization are to Magicians euphemisms for homogenization and mass control. Magicians must work alone in order to remain free from the powerful social conditioning forces of the masses. Such is the oath of Silence to which the Magician and the Hermetic is bound.
Magik never moves in unison with society, it guides society from afar. Magikal thoughts create reality for those without Magikal thoughts. And again, this is done and conveyed to other people symbolically, and it operates upon the human brain subliminally. There’s really nothing mysterious about this process. The human nervous system is built to perceive the world in particular ways. For instance, the human eye is built to perceive visual stimuli through a light based activation process by which it responds to particles of light, which are called photons.
The problem of modern human society is that it’s propped up by synthetic concepts and illusions and people do not realize their impotency. Transmitting the meanings of symbols from one person to another becomes dogmatic. Traditionally, people interpret symbols with the dogma that they were given by their predecessors and the doctors of their system. It’s this force of collectivism that Magicians must first shed in order to come to a fuller potential and a richer existence.
The purpose of Magik is not to absorb dogma. The purpose is to use the mind to transform the body; the purpose of Magik is to create the conditions which allow one’s inner genius to emerge. Magik, properly understood, will transform one’s material body into a body of Light.
Because Magik is such an intense and occult process, Magicians must recruit modern science to help with the effort. The most able Magicians are always on the cutting edge of science. It’s through science that Magik gleans new methodologies to yield its desired ends. It’s the powerful combination of Magik and science, (or empiricism and creativity) that unleashes the true potential of humankind. The process of Magiko-scientific exploration has always driven human beings into the most profound regions of human potential. The exploration of a new synthesis of this process is the focus of this book.
It’s critical to understand that it’s inside every cell in the human body that Magikal transformation occurs. The ultimate end to modern Magik, and this book, is to explore a unique system of Magik that transforms human DNA meta-psychically. This is done through ritualizing particular behaviors which impact the nervous system, which then in turn transforms the body’s metabolic state, which then transforms the deeper neurological states, which ultimately powerfully impacts the body’s genetic code. The biological underpinnings of this process are being discovered by various domains in science, especially genetic neuroscience. It’s the Magikal community that will integrate these various sciences into an organized and useful system for people so that it can be applied to modern life.
One of the major problems people have with being successful with any type of spiritual development, especially Magik, is that they are too homogenized and can’t break free from the group mindset. Almost everyone with whom we come into contact suffers from world view syndrome. World view syndrome is what emerges when someone adopts other people’s adaptations or versions of an experience or situation instead of or as a replacement of one’s own actual world experience. This is of course a symptom of technology. There is no need to go into the massive literature on dreams and the ability of a dream to affect people’s behavior. In fact, whole societies have been based upon the interpretation and authenticity of an important person’s dream (i.e., the prophet Daniel, the dream of Joseph regarding the transfer of baby Jesus from Israel to Egypt, Constantine’s dream of the cross, Martin Luther King’s dream…etc.).
So it’s of course not difficult to understand how powerfully influential an actual electronic interface would be, knowing that our eyes send information that has been de/recoded chemically and electronically to interface on a cellular level from an outside source the same way whether it’s real, a dream, holographic, or even a simulacrum like a computer screen. This process is critical to understanding how information is dealt with visually and ultimately with all the other known human sensory modalities- touch, hearing, smell, and taste. But of course, there is the sum of these modalities, which is cognition, then the sum of cognition and the lesser of its parts, etc. This gives rise to an infinite regress. Ultimately, a dream and a computer screen are the same type of artificial two dimensional image.
This is the creative potency of humans, and this exactly is what drives us to live without real and absolute knowledge of what’s at stake. Other alien civilizations, possibly far more knowledgeable about the physical universe and the ways in which it operates, can still not do the simple things that we do and for the reasons that we do it. It’s this dynamic, the motivation conundrum, that has caused piles of words to fall from the mouths of the most debauched scientific men, angered, embittered, and pessimistic towards their materialist cause, to ultimately proclaim that parsimony and reductionism is not an end, but only an elementary tool. It’s about INTENT. Intent is an invisible and immeasurable factor in the equation of the doer. Intent is the X-factor in any Magik process. In the sterilized spiritless antihuman world view of the atheists and the Darwinists, there is no purpose to human existence; human life is simply a random accident, just an argument of probability and statistics.
However, this is not to be confused with the misunderstanding that intention is absolute. Of course, in Magik the rituals must be done. Only with ritual does intention become an exponential factor. Without the actual ritualistic work, intent is simply a flamboyant and flippant gesture into the wind. In other words, intention is not a substitute for discipline.
The old mess that still lurks throughout the dusty halls of the money grubbing legacy builders, which is an aberration from DO WHAT THOU WILT, should not be confused with the above words regarding intention. Just as the lazy drones took DO WHAT THOU WILT to mean do what you want, don’t confuse this important diatribe regarding intention as a similar opportunity for weakness. Because lazy people fester around occult matters, just as they fester around television sets, and movie theaters- just like other bugs, the mundane herds fester around flashy lights and illumination.
That all said, without a holistic understanding of the nature of our minds and bodies, and the electromagnetic current upon which consciousness draws its perceptions, people will not be able to illuminate their soul.
The soul resides inside the nucleus of each cell in the human body. The soul has three stages of development, the Ka, Khabs, and the Khu.
Technically speaking, the purpose of ritual Magik is to create stimuli through which our brains generate new neuronal connections and pathways. These neural pathways become portals to subtle etheric realms outside the normal spectrum of human perception. Magicians then continue to reinforce these neural pathways ritualistically in order to build and maintain their astral temple. Such pathways, as every other neural circuitry, interact with the human organism metabolically, which then affects the individual’s genetics.
However, a critical aspect of understanding one’s genetic capabilities and shortfalls is in knowledge of one’s history. For instance, knowing that one’s family history includes diabetes allows for preventative measures to suppress the gene. Similarly, with Magik, knowing human history can offer a more complete comprehension of human potential.
Really, not until the early industrial era in the mid 1800’s did human beings have the opportunity to express themselves individually. There’s simply been no room in western society before collective imperialism to allow a sense of individuality to emerge in individuals. That is, to allow a sense of individuality to emerge beyond that which is under the direct influence of the state or the cult. Still today, people’s individuality is being powerfully suppressed both by themselves and institutions. Suppression of individuality has caused a catastrophic psychosis in modern civilization. This is the origin of the herd mindset.
The safety of lacking an individual consciousness is a powerful drive to which humankind is once again on the verge of completely digressing. The radical call for socialism and communism in current societies relates this primeval fear of self actualization and self responsibility. This is not the case for the Magicians. We now face a battle on the Earth which is for our personal Liberty and Magikal heritage.
Instead of looking into their own consciousness and experiences for knowledge and guidance, people will seek society’s experts, leaders, or gurus to guide them through the wilderness of their lives. The ritual of the Knowledge and Conversation with one’s Holy Guardian Angel gives individuals the power to abandon mass opinions so that the SELF can emerge as guide.
The emerging archetypes of the internet, mass communication, and global society will become powerful mental constructs. They will be used to suppress genetic predispositions for individualistic thinking and individual behavior. Powerful urges such as these are deeply entrenched in modern society. Fortunately, the awake are given the opportunity to break free during certain times in the transit of the solar system.
Until recently, psychologists believed that once an individual’s brain had stopped developing, no new neuronal generation occurred. This is now known to be false. In fact, adults continue to generate new neurons until death. This means that all through the course of human development, the human brain is still making room for new knowledge and new concepts. This neural generation is the essence upon which ritual Magik and the human genome’s symbiotic relationship is based, and how it’s bound to the galaxy and the Sun’s transit through it.
Therefore, now instead of balancing the traditional four elements associated with Magik (earth, air, water, and fire), we seek to explore the 7 regions of the hyper-human universe. Each of the 7 regions is a portal to another dimension; the regions are the Metaphoric, Metaphysic, Metatonic, Metabolic, Metapsychic, Metacthonic, and Metatronic. These 7 primal domains are explored with all the rigor, attention, and calculations of a modern scientific laboratory.
If this system of Magik is followed, and the work is done with an empirical approach, success is inevitable.
After the emergence of the Holy Guardian Angel (H.G.A.), the aspirant will have the Knowledge to compose their own rites. Composing one’s own rituals is critical because each individual has a particular phenotype, and in order to interact with their own phenotype the rites must be individually tailored. Of course, this can only be done by the actual individual.
Once one’s Magik is understood, and the matrix of sameness is seen, the initiate is immediately pulled into the Abyss. The Abyss is a state of complete mystical entrenchment. When inside the Abyss one loses their old personality, often one will shed old social relationships and even make a career change. The Abyss forces one to question everything they had previously thought they had known. In the Abyss, the Mage learns to put every part of themselves against its opposite- people meet their shadow.
After exiting the Abyss, the Magician rises as a Metatron. A Metatron is Supernal, and has activated and suppressed the proper aspects to their genetic code. Activating their full genetic potential ascends them to the realm of the Immortals. Enoch and Elijah would be examples of Metatronic adepts, because they did not have to die physically in order to ascend.
At this time, it’s critical for humankind to regain an aptitude for the esoteric traditions because modern civilization has been driven from truth and has descended into a deep illusion. Sciences, religions, international-banks, governments, and others, all hope to grab the mantle of power by which the illusion is controlled. In madness, no doubt the rabble will soon banish the Creator from the creation altogether, and we will witness the emergence of the humanity-gods.
Dark days are ahead; the myths that condition humankind are archaic and insidious, and are mutating into greater and more deadly monsters. One must be adept in many various systems and histories, otherwise the chaos becomes overwhelming and creativity is turned off. In order to learn to Magikally navigate through the chaos, one must be devoted first to THEMSELVES, and then to the Art. We are in fact in the midst of a diabolical genetic war.
It’s critical to maintain a Magikal focus because evil is attempting to create for humankind a New World religion. This religion is a pseudo scientific centralized dictatorial oligarchy of fierce eugenics, genocide, deception, and slavery. However, this world governmental religion will be promoted as peace. It will be zealously accepted by many as the only means to save the world and it will be harshly forced upon the dissenters. The basis of this doctrine has three components: that humankind is an animal, that all life emerged from an inorganic and inanimate cosmic soup, and that human civilization has always advanced linearly.
This doctrine, however, is simply a means by which humankind is being further separated from its true history and potential. All this, so humankind will be taken by the ultimate deception that an invading alien race is the gods of the human race, and that they should submit to the will of the invading aliens, which will be first co-inhabitation, then genetic fusion.
This doctrine is being cast over the population by first eliminating the nation state, and all social constructs that separate people ethnically and racially. Once people accept all humanity as one people, then the conditioning will begin. The conditioning suggesting that all races in the galaxy are one united people, and so forth. In this way, the socialist/communist deception being spun around the masses currently is simply the starting point for manipulating humans to consider alien races as brethren.
People who want to maintain the sovereignty of the Earth, and maintain humans as the only inhabitants, will be considered galactic racists. Ridding the Earth of the nation state, and steeping the entire world in an ultra left-winged radical type of socialism is the current strategy being made by the traitor humans on behalf of their alien overlords.
Evolution is a major part of this manipulation. Evolutionarily reducing all life to protoplasm is the religion of the antihuman and the method by which the doctrine of alien cohabitation is being begun. There’s no scientific system that can demonstrate the fundamental notion of modern scientific cosmology- that organic life emerged from in-organic matter. But still, people hate God, and they froth at the mouth over the concept of a full blown secular Earth, governed by atheist scientists and corrupt legislators.
To most people who have no higher cause or belief in God, science is a religious faith to which they emotionally cling as much as the fundamentalist of any overt religion. The truth is that unless one is actually doing science, it’s difficult to discriminate between legitimate experimental sciences like molecular chemistry and physics, from pseudo science and scientific mythologies like man-made global warming, the Big Bang, or the emergence of life and selective human evolution and the Darwinian continuity of the species.
Emmanuel Kant pondered what provoked humankind’s religious belief in a God. Kant stated he was awed by two things, the starry heavens and man’s accountability to God. Many believe that an accountability to God exists because humankind is fearful, and this of course would be the claim of the atheists. However, humankind’s accountability to God exists in spite of its fear, not due to it. And despite all the human experience and testaments to the contrary, the naysayers continue to chant their slogans that a belief in an immaterial and infinite God is a delusion and a psychopathological symptom, and is keeping humankind from any real progress.
The basis of the emerging New World religion is a concentration on material reality. It claims that reality is the objective consensus of the state of things, reality is where the known laws of physics operate reliably. In this materialist faith, RATIONALITY is GOD.
Interestingly, also rationality is becoming lost to people. There’s an attempt to shut off our rational faculties with chemicals in our food, psychopharmacological drugs, and a steady flow of propaganda. All this, while at the same time trying to enthrone rational sense as GOD. This is the paradox of the Black Brotherhood.
The diabolical combination of chemically toxic food, psycho-active pharmacology, and political and social propaganda is a gestalt drip-feed type of brainwashing that the masses have been conditioned to accept and to self administer. And because the bulk of the population is undernourished, dumbed-down, and drugged, any criticism towards the mainline social program is met with vicious retaliation from the overlords and their herds.
As said, a fundamental deception of the radical socialist agenda that’s being cast over the human race is that there is a reality, and reality is physical. Really, there’s no underlying reality at all. Reality is an illusion, or more accurately a 2 dimensional hologram that’s being projected onto our neo-cortex, that can be transformed from moment to moment, image to image, and from concept to concept. And this of course is all based upon perspective and various levels of individual perceptive acuity.
Quantum theorists and psychologists both have laboratory evidence that an observer of any natural phenomenon alters the phenomenon simply by observing it. If we look closely there’s a play on words here, because to alter consciousness, the Magician does his work upon an altar. For this reason it’s critical for Magicians to not cross the planes- meaning, not to confuse the possibilities in one realm with the possibilities of another (i.e., the events in the atomic and the subatomic worlds are not interchangeable in this reality).
Magikal systems of the past gave the elemental formulas (earth, air, fire, and water) so people could learn about the critical harmonics of the Ka, Khabs, and Khu. Now, S S S is with mankind to help those who wish to move into the New Aeon armed with Magikal rites specifically formulated for the onslaught and clash of forces in the looming genetic war. The world is on the brink of a darkness not yet known to the mind of humankind, and many will not survive the coming smash.
The Magik of S S S is a Magik of work, not hope. The substrate Law of the Strong given in Crowley’s Book of the Law, which states that ‘Slaves shall serve,’ made certain this new genetic Magik.
When the New Age of Hrumachis comes upon the Earth, the Law of the Strong will be the substrate upon which people will be emboldened and wage fierce battle for the human soul and for the LORD. This terrible war will be initiated by rebellions that engulf the cities after the first wave of alien/human hybrids begin to be announced. By this point, most of the population will have been brainwashed into supporting the destruction of individuality and of the human genome. The herds will clamor to mix human DNA with the invading alien race. Again, under the deception that this race is our gods and we are being genetically upgraded.
People will not be able to fathom that this race is a parasitic and diabolical race that has been attempting to fuse their genes with human genes for ages. People will not believe the true diabolical nature and intent of the invaders, because as all devils, they will cloak themselves in peace and dupe the weak willed.
This plan involves this invading races’ inability to procreate. But, they are able to clone themselves, and have manipulated the human genome in the past. However, they are unable to genetically clone humans without both male and female human DNA so they have to mix their own genes in as a third component. Ultimately, they want to be able to rid the human male gene, and fuse their genes directly with human women’s genes alone. This genetic creation, they believe, will be able to reproduce, which again they are currently unable to do. If they do not figure out how to create offspring that can reproduce, their race will soon cease to exist. In fact, as they are sterile, they are a dying breed.
An ambition to re-create the mythological paradise is maintained by the sorcerers who have given themselves over to this diabolical cause. Ambition is the substrate upon which the utopia concept is layered, and which premises the ultimate deception that this ancient memory of a paradise of complete health and long life will be available with the grace of this invading race and the genetic disposition that will be benefitted to humankind through the genetic fusion of the two races.
People’s personal ambitions often force them into the service of others. In this case, people who serve the alien overlords and betray their human brethren are ambitious to receive the gifts that they have been promised, which are of course lies. Therefore adepts of Magik choose wisely which personal ambitions they serve, and try to determine who else their ambitions might force them to serve.
We inherited our God from Egypt. The Egyptians were originally monotheistic. And according to the Egyptian myth, Amen-Ra created the entire universe with a Magik word because he wanted to be known. Amen-Ra created Shu and Tefnet, which symbolize wet and dry, and Nu and Seb which are Heaven and Earth. And from the union of Heaven and Earth came five children, Osiris, Isis, Set, Heru, Nebt.
Osiris was the Man-God, the Son of God, who conquered death through resurrection. It’s clear that the Judeo-Christian doctrine had been inherited from Egypt, and it plainly states in the Old Testament that Moses was learned in the ways of the Egyptians. S S S teaches that ideologies that convey an afterlife were actual scientific processes of the original creators of humankind, and the universe. Ideologies that teach polytheism and of earth worship, and no individual identity in the afterlife are degradations of the true religion of the stars, given to humankind after the genetic manipulation of the human race. Through the ages, prophets have conveyed the process by which humankind could return to the ultimate LIGHT. Osiris was probably the first of these prophets. Christ of course was the first organic incarnation of actual Light.
The Orders of the White Brotherhood such as S S S offer human beings their true identity and prepare the human race for the return of the LORD of LIGHT and the imminent battle with the invading alien race.
The ultimate aim of those using the Babalonian New World system is to implement control upon the whole Earth through a centrally controlled global pseudo scientific religious dictatorship, a bureaucracy in which the world can be properly propagandized to accept the message of the alien overlords.
There are four main cults that operate as parts of the Babalonian machine. The star cult or the stellar cult publicly worships the Sun, but secretly they worship Promethius and Lucifer, who were of course the invading alien race. The cult of Saturn is the legal arm of the system, the lawyers, judges, and domestic police. The cult of the virgin goddess and the moon is the national cult, which will be the first to be dissolved with the undoing of the nation state. And the Aryan cult, which provides the critical blood sacrifices to the gods through the rituals of warfare. All of the cults use ritualistic pedophilia and human sacrifice. The war must be done alchemically.
In alchemy, Magnum Opus (the Great Work) is believed by many to be the emergence of the man-god; symbolized by the transmutation of metals from the base to the precious. This metaphor is correct in that the true Philosopher’s Stone is the making of a man-god, but the proper key to this occult method has been lost. The secrets of this art have decorated the temples in Egypt, especially Abydos and Karnak, for over 6000 years and still are available in the plain open for anyone who wishes to be initiated into this Magik.
Initiates of S S S learn to read many ancient languages, including Egyptian hieroglyphics, in order to experience the primary occult systems and read the materials first hand instead of relying upon others to translate and interpret the texts. Rarely do people with both legitimate scientific and experimental experience and a deep interest in the occult advance writings relating to or regarding to ancient texts of Magik. It’s believed that the most ancient structures were attempts by the invading alien races through the ages to mimic the first Pyramids of On, which were built by our true creators and God race.
After the fall of Egypt and the bulk of the culture lost its ability to read the sacred hieroglyphics, long after the invading alien race superimposed the controlling doctrine over the ancient Egyptian religion of Osiris, the star religion was put into the secret societies, sub rosa as it’s said. It still remains there today and is used as an occult force to control the populations. The inner religion of the New World Order is in fact that of ancient Egypt, but this is never communicated to the public overtly, it’s done symbolically.
The secret doctrine is embedded into the tales of Atlantis, which became the controlling system of Egypt and thus the New World Order: the genetic procreation of the human race without sex (i.e., human cloning), the hierarchical structure of matter, and the afterlife.
The ruling classes keep this alchemical-genetic agenda secret. This conspiracy was initially called Babalon, and was the scheme of Nimrod. The Greeks inherited the program and the secrets were kept in the lineage of Socrates and the Boulomai, and culminated with Alexander. Socrates was executed because he was divulging the secret doctrine to the rabble. The Romans called the tyranny the Republic, and celebrated its accomplishments under the rhetoric of the Pax Romana. After the fall of the Roman Empire the Holy Roman Empire (the Church) of the middle ages called the global agenda the Crusades. Today the global tyranny has many names, globalization, environmentalism, Socialism, political correctness, and the New World Order are but a few.
Today this agenda has been disseminated under the language of modernization, or industrialization. The United Nations is the most publicly visible mechanism for this agenda. The agenda is financed by global banks; this is the secret of the secular temple.
As said, the Tree of Life is a metaphor for DNA. The entwined snake suggests the activation of the serpent, or the Nephilim genetic. The Qabala is a mnemonic device, and a system of intonations for God-names such as yd# l), which is Saturn. Also, it’s a method of assimilating mathematical ideas into human consciousness. Learning to intone the names is critical to the Qabalistic and Magikal system of S S S .
The Qabala is also a mathematical system that’s used to activate and transmute the genetic code of a human being. It’s a tool by which humans activate their genetic potential by a top down process instead of a bottom up process like the New World Order’s materialistic and tenuous theory of selective and linear human evolution. For this reason, Qabala has been historically suppressed.
S S S teaches a process of changing the mind and body with internal and extra-psychical means, instead of simply allowing the external physical environment to control the mind and change the body.
Darwinian evolution suggests that evolution is a bottom up process, meaning that environmental conditions cause biological change. This means that humankind is a simple reactionary organism that has no stake in its own evolution. This is of course rejected by Magik, and especially by S S S , which stipulates that each individual may psychically cause his own genetic awakening, and then thus trigger the genetic awakening of others. Again, this is why occult knowledge is suppressed.
The Aeon of Horus as proclaimed by Aleister Crowley in 1904, in Cairo Egypt, with the transmission of the Book of the Law from Aiwass, an extra-dimensional intelligence, over the course of three days. Since the time of the proclamation of this Law, the world has spun into chaos. Now, more than a century after the initiation of the New Aeon, it has become clear that the Aeon that Crowley proclaimed is waning and we are now upon the dawn of the rise of Heru Ma Khuit, the double wanded serpent god, the resurrected sun god to prehistoric Egypt.
Hru Ma means literally in Egyptian the lion faced- Hru meaning face, and Ma meaning lion. The lions are the kings, thus the KINGU, the rebel that was mixed with mankind. This was the legend of Nimrod, and Gilgamesh transforming into a strong man- a GIBORUM. Hru Ma is the lion faced aryan god, seen on Mars as the anthropomorphic lion-faced man. The lion is the serpent, the permutations of the quadrennial points of the precession. This war has been embedded into the stone monuments of Giza.
One of the names of Horus was Heru Paar Kraat. Heru Paar Kraat was a warrior god, thereby a god of destruction and analysis. Heru Maa Kuit is a God of Magik and Awakening, thus creation and synthesis.
Since Crowley’s prophecies have come to pass the world has been brought to global war numerous times, and has been on the brink of global destruction for almost a century with the nuclear age. As the system fully comes to a crash, those who will inherit the human race shall be those of the Law, the ‘Kings of the Earth.’ But they shall also know that this is a lie against them.
Those who can not escape enslavement shall become fodder for the kings, Strong men who roam the face of the Earth. It’s those who can’t emancipate themselves from the group mind, those who have no strength to die for their own Liberty that shall lose everything. This is the ‘Law of the Strong.’
In this New Age, a Magikal philosophy is being replaced by a Magikal methodology. The Magik of Horus was victory and vengeance, and the Magik of Hrumachis is alchemy and transformation. The Law of qelhma is being replaced by the Law of Magik. This is because the current of qelhma has been disgraced and has fallen to the hands of clowns; it has become worthless to the intense galactic power of the Aeon that humankind now faces. qelhma is so blind that it ignores the problem exists.
qelhma was a solar/cosmic law, this is obsolete. We now understand the law of galactic heliocentricity and are accorded with a cosmic and galactic law as Magi. We recognize the solar and phallic tradition of the old age, that wonderful Magikal Thelemic age from which we have all been nurtured and educated. However, the battle for which we have been preparing is coming swiftly, and Thelema is not enough to defeat our enemies. Thelemic Magik will not stand to face this dragon. Understand that S S S is a system not to replace qelhma, but to be placed above it, as a superimposition.
Do what thou wilt was a substrate upon which chaos was brewed. Thus, now the next Magus must come to that formula and place it into action. In order to break up the minds of the old slave age, it was first necessary to initiate a rebellion. Now that generations have past, the rebellion is waning and the rabble must again be awoken to serve a new Magik Law. A nobler Law of humankind are the laws given by S S S , which shall put order to the entropic chasm of Magik which sprawls out before us in the Xaos storm.
The aeons of the gods are not all fixed in time as the prophets of previous ages believed. We use the equinoctial precession as a symbolic interface with these great ages. But in reality, and more Magikally, these ages through which we move are not fixed, but they interact with the human central nervous system. And, the larger our concept of the universe, the faster come the dawns of the ages.
In the Age of Osiris, a transition was made into the Magikal formula of the dying and resurrecting god, as with the Aeon of Horus there was a transition from the dying god to the self-god. Now with the Aeon of Hrumachis the Magikal formula is that of eternal consciousness- called Sa’ON. So we transition from the self-god, to the un-god. In the ancient Egyptian tongue this is said as A-nu’k Sa’ON, which means I am a child of ON.
It’s realized that after the purge, those who advance forward into the New Jerusalem and the new Earth will understand this New Law. A large portion of the population never accepted the formula of the dying god, and these bloodlines are forever doomed. Those who learned of the dying god, but have not accepted the Law of Thelema still have a chance to survive.
However, the kings shall be those who accept the continuity of their own consciousness. The gate of the dying god has closed; the gate of the self-god is closing, at which time the monsters will be let loose. Those who will survive will move ahead with their own proclivities, and those who ignore their own SOUL, or offer it up to the great dissolution, which is the end of the human genome and the new fusion that will be attempted, will be doomed. Only those who will survive are those without the Mark of the Beast, which is of course, the alien genetic component that’s waiting to be mixed with humankind.
