Hermetic reality - The principle of correspondence

As above so below.

Everything in the universe has the same point of origin, and as such it follows that the laws that govern any plane of existence or dimensional space at any given level are subject to the same laws.

In esoteric or spiritual literature you will often find mention of what are reffered to as "planes of energy" such as the astral plane, in truth there is no exact distinction or division between any of these "planes" other then the the rate of vibrational energy they contain, so basically the term "plane" is used to group together certain phenomena or aspects together in a way that we can better mentally visualize the structure of the universe.

These planes are usually described as being three major groups which are, the mental plan, the spiritual plane and the physical plane, within these major groups are several sub-groups which can be considered states or conditions, these include the plant mind, the animal mind, the human mind and the mineral mind, we then also have to include the existence of entities, beings and souls.

At each given level from the lowest to the highest plane it is the rate of vibrational energy that manifests the said plane.
Particles of energy make up each plane and include everything from solid matter, radioactive materials, electricity and so on. Sub-divisional forces such as gravity and attraction are essentually the same but distanced by the rate of vibration.

There are many suddivisions and varying levels within any plane, so if we take the human mind as example, we have the basic everyday layman or woman who live their lives without any spiritual thoughts, compare that with the master or adept, who with practice, has learned the techniques to raise the frequency of their thoughts to a higher spiritual levelwhere they can experience hightened states of conscious existence at will.

As the laws that govern each level of existence it follows that higher dimensional beings must raise their vibrational energy to a point where the can in turn communicate with yet higher dimensional beings, so an angel may communicate with a demi-god who in turn communicates with a god, for example.

With all this in mind we find that all the universal planes and their sub-divisions are connected at some subtle level by varying degrees of energy and the laws that govern that energy, even the lowest form of energy is only seperated from the highest by its rate of vibration.

In magickal terms this gives us a great advantage, in that we have the knowledge that "all things within the universal whole" are but a transcendence of thought or vibration from each other. To enter a higher state of conscious experience we need to raise the vibrational rate of our thoughts beyond those of our base reality.

When this higher state of consciousness is achieved we find that the universal laws will allow us to opperate in the exact same way as we do at our base reality level. On return to that base level things are never quite the same, we bring back the experience of the higher plane of energy, which gives us the ability to see or base reality through "higher dimensional eyes".It allows communication with and control of the fundamental base energy that surrounds us. as its energy now exists at a lower level then that of our experience it gives us a certain understanding and power over that energy.

Wake Up! Arise and Shine! (Part 1)

Ask yourself this question, "Who am I?”

If you replied to yourself with your name, or perhaps your occupation, then you fell into the trap and are now lost within a shallow, “half-life” reality. If your life has become dominated by “working to live,” and you’re pacified by the likes of video games, computers, multi channel TV or the hope of a yearly holiday, then ask yourself if our ancestors’ struggled to survive through millions of years of biological evolution, against all odds, to bring us to this artificial “utopian” existence.

The media controls our every thought. The authorities (our parents and peers, The State, those having political power or The Government, religion, etc.) decide what we are to accept as “the truth,” so what is really right or wrong? Academic committees decide what we learn, and we are even told what and which way to think! This system of “operant conditioning” and control integrates itself into every part of society and consequently, all parts of our lives. We are born within this system. We have become part of this system. We are the system! We are all collective members of a world society that condemns radical thinking. Even the thoughts that we deem to be “free” have been shaped and corrupted during our infancy via this “system.” What is the answer? Wake up!

W A K E   U P !

Take control of yourself.

Now, ask yourself again, "Who am I?" This time, do you answer with something like this:

“I am the creation of the universal energy that is, in turn, a part of the all.”

Learn to stay open minded, take charge of your own thoughts, think for yourself! Through the miracle of life, we are but several billion atoms that choose to stay bonded within our physical form. Within this “shell” and within every atom the universal, living energy that is part of and connected to the rest of the “All.” More specifically, our living divinity links our soul to the greater “All!” This living soul and inner divinity, when coupled with our free/true will is our key to understanding, manifesting and controlling our own personal reality and that of others; it is also our key to spiritual evolution. It is our link to true Magick and for accessing dimensions with higher vibratory rates, each one of which is our universal birthright!
