Statistiks and Ritual Magik: Reshaping the Middle Pillar Ritual
It is often believed by Magicians that there is some strange association between sound, color, thought, and of course the enigmatic LUX or L.V.X. Actually, these associations create the foundation for Magik in its ritual sense. This brief discussion is meant to show with modern statistical procedures as proof what already exists in the Occult as Dogma. Modern Magikal formulas like statistics can be applied to Occult formulas just like scientists use statistics in University Laboratories. Just like all other science, Magikal methods of extracting nature's Secrets must also be rigorous and objective if we are to ever expect reliable results from our Magik. Ultimately, there IS some fundamental real and objective feature that attaches the old correspondences to one another (i.e. colors, tones, concepts, planets, elements...etc). With statistics the Magikal correspondences can be proven by the same methods that prove physics, chemistry, astronomy, and every other so-called ‘legitimate’ science. However, as modern science denies the worth of such associations and rejects attempts at interpreting their meanings, Magicians know the value of internalizing and seeking out the most subtle of these patterns. Magicians know that the process of perceiving the underlying patterns of our existence and natural reality is a Magikal process, and because Magik resists predilections in it's quest and moves at knowing for Knowledge's sake, it will always precede exoteric science but also will always be demonized by it. For this reason the Magicians remain Silent.
Of all frequencies measured by hertz (i.e. cycles per second), brainwaves are the lowest- which means that they move the slowest and are the densest. Brainwaves are measured in five categories in modern neuroscience, which are delta, theta, alpha, beta, and gamma respectively. When the thresholds for these categories are partitioned, amazingly they correlate significantly to the five notes of a pentatonic scale. The correlational statistic used in this analysis is the standard Pearson Product-Moment Correlation Statistic used in all scientific laboratories in all Academic Institutions the world over. The results to this analysis can be replicated when a correlation statistic is done using the measures of : typical threshold brainwave states, the Gematria value of the Hebrew color words given in Crowley’s 777, spectral light frequency, and standard Western pitch frequencies at A = 440.
What this means is that thought, color-light, sound, and Gematria, are all correlated to such an improbable degree that it is sound publishable science. The question is- how the Hell did magicians and Qabalists have this knowledge so firmly established in their doctrines before spectrometers, Microsoft Excel, tuning forks, or sound mathematical theories and the concept of zero? How did they know the truth of ‘As above so Below?’ Who told them that everything vibrates and is in constant flux? This knowledge of constant change and vibration is not an observable truth, so why did the ancient adepts adopt so faithfully the doctrine of vibration as Heraclitus said, 'All is in flux.' The answer may be in our DNA. We need just look into ourselves, and have that elusive chat with our Holy Angel, that neuro-genetic Master and Gatekeeper of our Fate and Initiation!
Sound, light, words, and the electricity that encodes our thoughts, represent the same pattern just on various points along the same Continuum. What this also means is that when applied and the proper associations are known, colors and tones can be incorporated into ritual Magik to produce biological change. Meaning, frequencies make actual neurological changes because they activate hormonal and neuro-chemical processes that ultimately form new neurological connections and pathways enabling novel conceptual processes to emerge in the cortical areas of the brain, which in tern activates genetic predilections that are in latency and amplifies them. Just think of it as how spectral light affects growing weed- you need red lights to get lofty plants, but blue lights to make them flower into the good stuff. These various points along the light spectrum trigger different aspects of the plants genetic code, one light tells it to grow while another tells it to bud. The vibratory spectrum has even more of an affect on our genetic makeup.
So, now we understand a bit more about the scientific Pantheon of New Aeon Magik which is Vibrations/Matter/L.V.X./M.A.A.T. And, that the Magikal application of the Vibration/Matter/L.V.X/LUX/Had/Nuit pantheon is availed to Sons and Magicians pursuing actual scientific results.
So how do we apply this type of esoteric information to practical ceremonial Magik?
Intoning the God-Names is a crucial aspect of ceremonial Magik. Besides the Lesser Ritual of the Pentagram, the Middle Pillar Ritual is probably one the most fundamental pieces to the Western Magikal Regimen.
Traditionally when the Middle Pillar ritual is done the God-Names used for intonation and visualization are those of the traditional Golden Dawn Qabalistic correspondences. However, since the true correspondences have been uncovered, we can now apply our new science to the old rituals.
Probably much criticism will be put to this system, but it is my understanding that the traditional Magikal associations are wrong, and serve as a ‘lure.’ What’s meant by this is that the commonly distributed Qabalistic dogma (i.e. Golden Dawn, Levi. etc.) is what Crowley called a ‘blind.’
Blinds, or veils, are placed over a doctrine so that it can be disseminated and students can be trained in all the requisite material and rituals without being bestowed with the key. That is, they learn their ‘misinformation’ with all the fervor of it being real, because they think it IS real. However, the initiate is never really told he has been misled, that is for each adept to discover for himself. In fact, this revelation of being deceived is the Initiation to sit at the Table of Gods in the City of Pyramids.
The Secret of LUX/L.V.X is in fact at the heart of this mystery.
The proper God-Names and visualized Spheres should not be:
EHIEH for KETHER --White
YHWH ALHIM for DAATH – Translucent Purple
YHWH ALHIM v’ DAATH for TIPHARETH --Yellow
SHADAI AL CHI for YESOD –Dark Purple
ADNI H ARETZ for MALKUTH --Black

My Thought Layers: Technicolor Music and Loud Arrays of Words
I think in layers. Do you sometimes think this way too?
My thoughts sometimes begin from an impulse that reminds me of a sustained sub-bass note, but as they progress upward, they become an active "voice" in my head. Initially, my thoughts have a deeper, more symbolic, non-verbal meaning. Passing into the inner-audio channel, my language constraints hide their full meaning. I am multi-lingual and because I am, I have multiple vocabulary lists. Normally, I am a fast English thinker, but in cases of severe English limits, a Spanish word or less frequently, an Italian or some other language's word flashes on to my minds inner screen. My "Namer and Guesser" or "NAG" is in charge of analyzing all the raw information I receive from sensory input. For just a nanosecond, it matches that raw information with my internal computer's database to determine its name. The only exception to this steadfast rule occurred when I initially learned used my psychic faculties because the raw information entered my mind through a channel not wired directly to the NAG, thus bypassing it completely. Well, that was until the NAG learned how to splice into or "tap" the new channel and re-direct that raw information through it as well. It appears that the NAG has some control issues and doesn't like to share any of its responsibilities. In fact, during my Controlled Remote Viewing sessions, the most challenging aspect for me was to "freeze" my impressions before or just as they were interpreted by my "Namer and Guesser."
The "Namer and Guesser" is what Ingo Swann (pictured at left), creator of the Controlled Remote Viewing (CRV) protocol and the world's foremost authority on the intricacies and functioning of the mind's paranormal attributes, named the internal mental faculty that takes information, matches it with known objects, cross checks and compares it to other known objects and then subjects it to individual likes, dislikes and other programming peculiarities within the unique human psyche. All this is done in "nano-time." An example of this function occurs when matching impressions from all the five senses with the two newly discovered senses.
Mr. Lyn Buchanan (pictured at right), a former student of Ingo Swann and former member the CIA's Top Secret CRV Unit responsible for the success of project "STARGATE," named the two newest senses the "Ambiance" sense (formerly known as the "Sixth Sense") and the "Psychic" sense (formerly known as the "Seventh Sense" or "Clairvoyant Channel"). How many times have you looked at something and had to look again because you were not able to identify it or because when you looked the first time, something seemed odd or out of place, but you weren't sure what or why? Yes, thank the "NAG" for telling you that it could not offer a you either complete analysis or even close guess based on the information you dared pass off to it as "complete."
During my Baccalaureate studies in Meteorology, I was (and still am) a Kinesthetic learner. I took copious notes, would look at diagrams, watch the teacher as he spoke and reconstructed class at my apartment when I would re-type my written class notes. This re-typing step was critical, as I reconstructed the Atmosphere into 12 layers, would physically move them vertically and horizontally at the meso-scale to get an idea about the atmospheric dynamics of weather systems and other synoptic features. I would make-up hand gestures (symbols) to accompany concepts that would otherwise require a considerable amount of time and effort to completely write out using rote memorization. All Atmospheric layers stack back to the colder air and jet stream maxes located at the 300mb level (30,000ft), which form "short waves" in the long wave pattern at the 500mb (18,000ft) level, thus creating conditions favorable for precipitation-type weather.
I have an entire notebook filled with acronyms that involves the use of a minor hand gesture that kicks off a mental process. For example, there's one that cues an entire thermodynamic process within our atmosphere. My grades reflected the effectiveness of this approach, as did the fact that I can regurgitate this information to anyone interested in hearing about it. Unfortunately, it doesn't work well in the home environment's self-teaching platform. These gestures and memory short-cuts were not always effective. Problems appeared when I encountered non-standard weather cases and anything else that didn't fit a classic scenario. This immediate need for the right answer required me to make a "WAG," or "Wild Ass Guess." I thought that was what I was doing, anyway. Very recently, I was in a chemically-induced, altered state of mind that gave me an opportunity to re-evaluate some of my mind's mysteries. Surprisingly, I discovered that even non-standard cases also stick to the same principles as the more common scenarios, but in a more sublime way. I realized that I had mentally inserted myself into the problem, and visualized myself with my back to the wind. I mentally turned myself 15 degrees to the left, revealing the location of the low pressure center and it was from there, I discovered, that I was interpolating while making all my "WAG's." If only I had realized this earlier, I would have had much more confidence in my meteorological observations and forecasts. Incidentally, I discovered that I use a similar process which seems to work during all my improvisational music performances and other performance-based tasks that have an established system of measurement. Other mental operations have different requirements which work so differently from the way that this example works.
While conversing, I "see" thought matrices and mental flow charts that "appear" on my "inner thinking screen." These charts deliver my responses to me before the other person has completed saying their piece. I am unsure if this is a form of telepathy, because I am always generating and completing my spoken words mentally before I hear the other person's words flow vocally. I assume that others do something similar to this as well. Could this be an example of the mind's advanced computing power in action? Is it an educated guess based on the diminishing probability of certain phrases appearing at certain points in people's speech? I say that it is a combination of both and that there is also a telepathic element involved as well. There are advantages to being tuned in to others' conversational frequencies. I am never at a loss for words and can charm just about anyone I meet by saying things delivered from above, processed in the middle with my impulses from below--remember these? These impulses seem to relate to observations about my environment and the non-verbal cues I receive from my victim...er, um, the person with whom I happen to be conversing. The descending, improvised statements are inspired from an Esoteric energy or force that feels as if it is located just above my Crown Chakra.
Other Esoteric relationships exist between sensory stimuli and communication dynamics. Through the study and practice of Ritual Magick, these relationships become more important. Some of you may know that I am 1/3 of the way through with the Abramelin Operation. I will say that it is a completely transformative experience. Results present themselves just after the routine this Sacred operation begins to seem like second nature. Recently, I started to notice that words and phrases I use contains more than just colloquial meaning. Each word I choose to use when I speak has an associated color, each color "feels" as if it would have a direction if it were in motion. Each of these possible perceptions of movement and texture contributes to emotional impact of my immediate environment. This makes better sense when taken in the context of music lyrics. Music alone is capable of generating an emotional response that influences the immediate environment. Selecting words that have multiple meanings (i.e. the double entendre) and utilizing them at significant points in the musical score, with proper intonation, creates effects unique to each listener during a musical movement by synergistically effecting the emotional "punch" of the song. This is the very principle I try to apply to human speech and its effect on others.
Words have the power to make people angry, happy and sad. Words can also inspire. Some people have the uncanny ability to select words based on their emotional strength and use them quite effectively; one example is Advertising and Public Relations Specialists--needless to say, they earn quite a good living influencing our decisions and our actions. These are actually Magickal principles that we, as Esoterists, have known about since antiquity. They are just now being discussed by the masses. As modern students of the Western Esoteric Tradition, it is important for us to always be one step ahead of everyone else, so that we never allow ourselves to fall prey to deception or manipulation. By learning to master the intricacies of sublime relationships like those previously discussed, we empower ourselves to better understand how our world truly works.
Now, you know that there are real relationships between sound and color, and that when properly manipulated by someone in a Magickal context, a significant emotional impact may be affected on an individual, the entire audience or a specifically defined demographic therein. So, it is important for you to try to find examples of these relationships during your day. Just think, the power of mantra during visualization is an example of how sound waves influence brain activity. Something seemingly as simple as basic human conversation is actually a complicated chorus of coordinated physical and mental processes. I select my words based upon their specific tonal color and emotional "charge." I enhance them even more by using proper voice inflection and subtle forms of non-verbal communication as well. I do this for a number of reasons, but primarily, I do it to benefit in some way from it, or to get some type of predetermined reaction from the people with whom I happen to be speaking. This means that I am using Magick to manifest whatever it is that I happen to need when I am speaking.

Hermetic Reality (Part 1)
Incorporating Hermetics Into Your Personal System of Magick!
The Magickal system of Hermetics is derived from the writings of Hermes Trimegistus whose secret doctrines and mystic teachings allegedly date back to ancient Eygpt and Greece. In 1908 these teachings were published as a condensed system under the name of "Kyballion", this book claimed to be a "master key" by which the Magickal adept or esoteric student could understand and control reality. These teachings have a working core that consists of "seven principles".These are to be combined as one master under understanding.
The seven principles are as follows:
- The principle of mentalism.
- The principle of correspondence.
- The principe of vibration.
- The principle of polarity.
- The principle of rhythm.
- The principle of cause and effect.
- The principle of gender.
In the following series of articles, we will independently address and evaluate each principle and include information from new scientific advances. A consise study of these principles will endow the student an invaluable and relavent understanding of the workings of this system.
He/she who has an understanding of reality, controls reality!

Nature's Plus ReGeneration Softgel Vitamins
Many of our readers have asked me to post a nutritional component breakdown of Nature's Plus Regeneration Softgel Vitamins. So, I scanned the small, folded nutritional certification found in every bottle sold. These are the vitamins used in the "Seven day Fasting Protocol" and by many others in the Esoteric community, well, OK...me!
Anyway, these vitamins are the best I have ever used and I have used just about every type of formulation out there. My hair feels "kitten soft," my nails grow rapidly, my skin is pliable, I feel a sense of wellness after they get into my bloodstream and the gray hair I used to worry about is not even a worry any longer. Most importantly, they provide the nutrients I need to function well Esoterically. These vitamins are easy on the stomach and are divided into a synergistic three tier formulation.
To make trying them even easier, I have added a direct link to Amazon.com on the sidebar if you decide to go ahead and order a thirty day supply. It is cheaper to order Nature's Plus ReGeneration Softgel Vitamins through Amazon.com, as they have a complete product guaranty and shipping costs are nominal.

I am setting out to educate, elucidate and emancipate your bodies, minds, hearts and souls from a system that degradates the Sacred Feminine, Magick, Thelema, and all other Western Esoteric arts.

Wake up! Arise and Shine ( Part 3)
“Life is but a dream!” Renowned thinkers, philosophers and sages state this repeatedly throughout recorded history. What are the implications of this quote to us?
The validity of reality is beyond provability. The nature of reality is by its own nature obscured and unfathomable. We should take nothing for granted during our waking state of consciousness. Nothing is set in stone. Apparently, even the structure of stone itself is 95% empty space when viewed at the atomic level. So how we set about approaching something that evades the scrutiny of all scientific investigation?
There are existing systems, which we may adapt and use to investigate and scrutinize altered states of mind. Take, for this example, the case of “Lucid Dreaming.” By reading certain signs, the “lucid dreamer” learns to alert his “Super-Consciousness” that a dream is occurring. Almost immediately, this information passes on to the dreamer's waking mind and with constant practice, the dreamer then learns to control and direct the content and enviroment of their dreams for any number of reasons. This is a well-documented phenomenon. So if we are to accept reality as being “dream like” in nature, then the aim of the Magikal adept should also be to likewise learn and evaluate the signs, connect with the “All” and take active control of the “dream” that is life!

Demystifying the Mystical: Ritual Purification and Fasting [Part Four]
The Seven Day Fast: A Proven Protocol*
Days 8, 9 and 10
“The Fast Break”
You did it! You completed the fast! You have lost fat, not muscle. You have detoxified your once polluted body. You have flushed yourself clean. You have re-invigorated yourself with vitamins, minerals and other herbal nutrients. You feel as if you could live on the fasting protocol as long as you desire; a far cry from the first few days when you were questioning whether or not to complete the fast. You now have a clean slate with which to use for creating the reality you choose. This process helps you celebrate life! Now, you just have to break the fast properly!
This is a simple fast breaking protocol to follow. Variants of this protocol are presently in use by other cultures and religious communities for various reasons, and have been used safely from time immemorial. It is imperative that you follow these directions explicitly. If you do not follow the simple process for breaking your fast, you will experience “metabolic shock,” which can result in severe nausea, dizziness and in rare cases, death.
YOU MUST NOT EAT ANY MEAT, OR COMPLEX CARBOHYDRATES FOR AT LEAST THREE DAYS AFTER YOU COMPLETE THIS FAST! This is not due to social or esoteric reasons; it is because your body needs time to re-adapt to solid food first, then gradually, meat, pastas, breads, rice and the like can become part of your diet once again, in this order—Fish, chicken, then lamb or beef, and last, pork and crustaceans. The last two are lowest in vibratory rate. Rice, Pastas and other complex carbohydrates should also follow this same pattern--gradual reintroduction after three days.
Continue to visualize your body circulate and assimilate nutrients at the cellular, histological, organic and systemic levels of the body. Simultaneously, visualize your body eliminating dead cells, toxins and other waste materials.
Upon waking:
-Weigh yourself and take “tailor’s measurements,” Journal the information!
-Drink at least 12oz of water
-Face a mirror, look yourself directly in the eyes while stating, “I successfully completed my fast, per the Protocol, a testament to the sincerity of my intent!”
-State your Telos, or Magickal Purpose for undertaking the work
Breakfast:
Either 3 teaspoons of plain, strained (Greek style) yogurt (preferred) OR Cottage Cheese
5 spinach leaves or 3 lettuce leaves
1 baby carrot, steamed to your liking
Take 1 ReGeneration Vitamin
Drink 24oz of Water
Mid-morning:
5 spinach leaves or 3 lettuce leaves
1 baby carrot, steamed to your liking
Take 1 ReGeneration Vitamin
Drink 24oz of water.
Lunch:
Either 6 teaspoons of plain, strained (Greek style) yogurt (preferred) OR Cottage Cheese
5 spinach leaves or 3 lettuce leaves
1 baby carrot, steamed to your liking
Take 1 ReGeneration Vitamin
Drink 32oz of water
Late Afternoon:
Either 6 teaspoons of plain, strained (Greek style) yogurt (preferred) OR Cottage Cheese
Drink 24oz of water
Dinner:
Either 8 teaspoons of plain, strained (Greek style) yogurt (preferred) OR Cottage Cheese
5 spinach leaves or 4 lettuce leaves
2 baby carrots, steamed to your liking
Take 1 ReGeneration Vitamin
Drink 32oz of water
Early Evening:
Drink 12oz of water
Meditate on your Telos, using your preferred method of entrainment. Sweet dreams!
Days 9 and 10:
Utilize the outline above. Progressively ramp-up the amount of the Strained (Greek Style) yogurt or Cottage Cheese to 1/2 cup; likewise, increase the amount of spinach and steamed carrots and beginning with Lunch on Day 9, start to include fruit as well. Begin with small amounts (1/4 of a whole fruit, 1/2 oz of berries, etc.) of oranges, grapefruit bananas, blueberries and apples through dinner on Day 10. Remember to drink at least a gallon of water a day to keep your body flushed and operating at an optimum level, take your ReGeneration vitamin softgel at mealtime and use the meal schedule as an outline for you to use hereafter, so to keep your metabolic rate higher. Eating smaller portions with greater frequency is a proven metabolic boosting technique.
On the Fast Break day (Day 8) and the two days thereafter (Days 9 and 10), take one of the Senakot tablets two to three times a day; 1 upon waking, one at breakfast and 1 at mid-morning. Discontinue using Senakot as soon as you start having regular bowel movements again, or on day 10--whichever comes first.
As a pure weight loss tool, you may repeat the Seven Day Fasting Protocol every six weeks, as needed, in conjunction with a proper exercise regimen and approval of a Medical Professional. As an adjunct to major Magickal Practice, and if it be your will, add this regimen as needed, bearing in mind all the information contained in this series.
To make your own strained (Greek Style) yogurt, simply purchase paper coffee filters and plain low-fat yogurt. Pour all the yogurt into a bowl, rinse the original container clean. Place the coffee filter over the top of the yogurt container. Then, push the filter far enough down into the container so it holds a significant amount of the unstrained yogurt, but leaves enough of the filter extending up, past the top of the container, so that it can be folded down on the outside of the container then, rubber banded securely in place. Once the filter is securely fastened (remember, it will be supporting the weight of the yogurt), pour as much of the yogurt as possible from the bowl into the filter. Let stand undisturbed for 30 minutes, then refrigerate overnight. Cover the bowl containing the remaining unstrained yogurt, and return it to the refrigerator immediately. The next day, the yogurt in the filter will have the appearance of Ricotta type cheese. Carefully (without breaking the wet filter), remove the filter from the yogurt container, discard the water strained from the yogurt. You may repeat this process for the remaining amount of unstrained yogurt, re-do your current batch to make it even thicker or just use the yogurt container to hold your first batch of the Greek Style Yogurt.
This completes the Fasting portion of the Demystifying the Mystical: Ritual Purification and Fasting series. Future topics in this series include Ritual Bathing, Mutual Massage, the role of Essential Oils and the other necessary ritual purification practices prior to engaging in Modern Ritual Sex Magick and other forms of Energy Manipulation.
*Disclaimer -- Neither the FDA nor any Medical Professional has evaluated this protocol. Before dieting or fasting, always consult your Physician. If you are pregnant, think you may be pregnant, nursing, have a compromised immune system, have been told that you should not fast or if you take prescription medication of any type, do not undertake any of the actions described herein. Although I have personally completed this exact protocol many times with only positive effects, some may not be able to complete this process safely and effectively. I assume no liability for any harm which may come from this or any other health related issue and present the information in this post purely for informational and entertainment purposes only.

Wake up! Arise and Shine (Part 2)
Think for yourself! Abandon the way that you have become accustomed to thinking. Accept the fact that peer pressure conditions you to accept false beliefs and all that you consider part of your reality.
Think for yourself! Question--why should you question the validity of your reality? The answer is quite simple. Nobody can tell you where your place is within the structure of reality. They are not able to tell you what reality is or even where your reality may be located!
Speculating about the origin of the universe only leads to an endless barrage of other, more abstract speculations that Charlatans claim to be able to answer for us. Instead of wasting your time pondering “the meaning of life,” try accepting that you are an integral part of the “All.” Accept the fact that you have the gift of free will and that YOU can choose to believe whatever YOU want to believe! Think for yourself!
Each of us is at the center of the only reality that we will ever know. All your thoughts and conscious experiences are central to the personal theme commonly referred to as, “Your Reality.” All relative dimensional space is accessible vibratory space that the Magickal Adept may wish to explore. Allowing external negative influences to alter your perception of what is actually “out there” is, in fact, an act of surrender to that negative influence! Only your point of view is relevant to YOU! Think for yourself!

Demystifying the Mystical: Ritual Purification and Fasting [Part Three]
The Seven Day Fast: A Proven Protocol*
Days 2 through 7:
The first 3 to 4 days of the fast are the most difficult to complete. Your joints may ache slightly as your body eliminates waste material deposits from your synovial fluid. This “achy” feeling will subside toward the end of the process. Additionally, you will experience headaches through days 3 and 4, as your brain and body are adjusting to their perceived lack of Carbohydrate and Omega Three Fatty Acids, as well as to the overall detoxification process. These headaches should disappear completely by the end of the 4th day. IF these headaches become unbearable or you experience any other type of side effect that seems out of the ordinary at any time during the fast, seek Professional Medical help immediately!
Once you are about ½ way through the process, you will discover the profound role that food plays in your life. You will begin to notice sublime spiritual and mental changes along with a marked physical change in your physical appearance. Also, the way you think about food will forever be different. You will scrutinize the food you decide to put into your body in a whole new way. “Nutrition” becomes a new priority, as do flavor and portion control. Making sure that you and anyone else around you never wastes food again, will become something people associate with you forever more. You will also begin to experience increased energy that may force you to go to bed at a later time, but should not prevent you from falling asleep.
Remember that this fast has a strong nutritional component. Consequently, you will not loose muscle or send your body into “starvation mode” the way you would if you fasted by just eating bread and drinking water. Refill your Pur Water Pitcher every time you use it, exercise lightly, meditate and creatively visualize your Telos everyday; this keeps you Magickally focused on the quantum physical level on up through the various spiritual levels. So long as you maintain your new healthy lifestyle, the approximate 10lbs to 15lbs that you lose during the process will never return. I personally like to cook my favorite dishes during my fasts, just to keep the temptation level on “high” and to show others that fasting is possible under any circumstance!
“A temptation resisted is the true measure of Character!” - Dega (Dustin Hoffman), “Papillion”
Upon Waking:
Drink 12oz of water
Breakfast:
Drink ¼ of the Biotta Vegetable Cocktail Juice bottle
Take 1 ReGeneration Vitamin
Drink 32oz of water
Mid-morning:
Drink 24oz of water.
Lunch:
Drink ¼ of the Biotta Vegetable Cocktail Juice bottle
Take 1 ReGeneration Vitamin
Drink 32oz of water
Late Afternoon:
Drink ¼ of the BiottaVegetable Cocktail Juice bottle
Take 1 ReGeneration Vitamin
Drink 24oz of water
Dinner:
Drink ¼ of the Biotta Vegetable Cocktail Juice bottle
Take 1 ReGeneration Vitamin
Drink 32oz of water
Early Evening:
Drink 12oz of Water
Continue to meditate nightly on your Telos, using your preferred method of entrainment and sleep well. On days 6 and 7, you may need to take one of the Senakot tablets two to three times a day if you are not having at least one bowel movement a day; 1 tablet upon waking, 1 tablet at breakfast and 1 tablet at mid-morning.

Demystifying the Mystical: Ritual Purification and Fasting [Part Two]
The Seven Day Fast: A Proven Protocol*
Day 1:
Make sure you have no commitments that take you out of the house this day, as you will need to be near your bathroom. The colon cleansing power of the Sauerkraut Juice is superior to most other chemically based products costing four or five times as much. Your stool will become runny toward the middle of the day and will remain so throughout the fast, with diminishing frequency. Additionally, any time you feel you have to “pass gas,” you would be wise to do so “on the pot”—passing “wet” gas in your pants is not fun to experience; especially for women wearing thongs and those who choose to go “Commando.”
You may drink naturally decaffeinated tea during your fast, but no alcohol, juice cocktail, milk or dairy-based beverages; no sugar and caffeine laden drinks such as coffee and soda either. Finally, there is no smoking or tobacco use during this purification and detoxification process.
Throughout this evolution, you will have to wake-up during the night to urinate. At first, your urine may have a dark yellow color. As the fast progresses, the color will change to bright straw or bright yellow, and at times, may even be clear.
Meditation and visualization are important to the overall effectiveness of the fast. Visualize your body circulate and assimilate nutrients at the cellular (epithelial, pseudo-stratified, etc.), organ (liver, pancreas, etc.) and systemic (circulatory, nervous, etc.) levels of the body. Simultaneously, visualize your body eliminate dead cells, toxins and other waste material left behind by free radicals, drugs, alcohol and food additives.
Upon waking:
-Weigh yourself and take “tailor’s measurements,” Journal the information
-Drink at least 12oz of water
-Face a mirror, look yourself directly in the eyes while stating, “I will complete this fast per the Protocol!”
-State your Telos, or Magickal Purpose for undertaking the work.
Drink ¼ of the Biotta Sauerkraut Juice bottle
Take 1 ReGeneration Vitamin
Drink 24oz of Water
Within 30 minutes, the laxative effect may begin to work.
Take 1 ReGeneration Vitamin
Drink 32oz of water
Late Afternoon:
Drink ¼ of the Biotta Sauerkraut Juice bottle
Take 1 ReGeneration Vitamin
Drink 24oz of water
Dinner:
Drink ¼ of the Biotta Sauerkraut Juice bottle
Take 1 ReGeneration Vitamin
Drink 24oz of water
Early Evening:
Drink 12oz of Water
Meditate on your Telos, using your preferred method of entrainment. Sweet dreams!

Demystifying the Mystical: Ritual Purification and Fasting [Part One]
Fasting is one of the most dreaded, misunderstood and improperly executed ritualistic endeavors made use of by practitioners of the Western Esoteric Tradition. We make use of this process to prepare for a significant spiritual event. By following a safe and reputable fasting protocol, the body detoxifies itself, the basal metabolic rate operates more efficiently and higher and aesthetically, it is definitely worth the effort. More importantly, however, the process forces the individual to focus the Magickal Will with laser-like intensity on the mystical reason for the fast and it serves to demonstrate the individual’s sincerity to whatever the ultimate intent of the work may be.
The Seven Day Fast: A Proven Protocol*
During the three days leading up to the fast, there should be no intake of large, heavy or greasy meals. Avoid alcohol, caffeine and any other substance that could irritate the stomach, convert itself to a “bio-toxin” or slow digestion.
Light exercise is a critical component of this fast. One should continue with Yoga, Pilates and any other form of exercise that feels comfortable. Eliminate heavy lifting, long runs or walks and any exercise that over-exerts the body and/or requires a greater intake of calories from whole food sources, during the fast.
Finally, follow the adage, “Cleanliness is next to Godliness.” Shower at least once a day using an aromatic soap. This is a great way to wash away the toxins you excrete through your skin’s pores, satisfy your sense of smell (formerly occupied by the smell of food), and for the couple, a great way to become more intimate and make the process easier for the one fasting. If you can, try to get a massage out of your significant other too, since it aids the detoxification process!
The Components
1 Bottle of Biotta Sauerkraut Juice
6 Bottles of Biotta Vegetable Cocktail Juice
1 Bottle of Nature’s Plus ReGeneration Softgel Vitamin Capsules
1 Bottle of Senakot, a Senna-based, natural (not chemical) laxative
1 Pur Water Pitcher
1 Notebook to document the effects you experience during the process
This concludes Part One. In part two, I will provide you with the day by day, step by step fasting protocol and all related information you will need to safely and effectively undertake "The Seven Day Fast."*

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!
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!

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!

Eternally Yours, Scarlet Babalon
She seduces me with her very nature, she never denies me. We unite while she rides me like the beast that I am, her energy so strong; her passion, her fire...My Goddess, you take me to the brink of sinful eruption, just then, you delay my orgasmic bodily function. We stop for a minute, then start over again, our love for one another never fades--we never tire! Take me one more time, my Dark Queen, what do you lack? I see my name tattooed on the small of your back! Deeper and deeper I go, onward, into the night. Scarlet, my love, quench my desire! Over and over, in and out, sultry fire. I need you right now, it's only you that makes me yearn;
Scarlet Babalon, for you I eternally burn...
We manifest reality, we create what we will. Some may think you are a fantasy, a shadow from lovers past. Others? They could not care less if you are a product of my imagination or a conglomeration of those I've had from every cast...Scarlet Babalon; The Sacred Feminine, The Goddess, or a negative polar emanation--Maybe a secret desire from a male dominant religious affiliation? You're none of these things, and not anything less. Are you here just to satisfy me and do nothing more? Scarlet Babalon, that would make you my whore. I confess with my heart, that your love is the best...If I lose you, one thing is for sure, I will love you always and to all I attest -- you are the best and you will never know scorn;
Scarlet Babalon, for you, I eternally mourn...
I know you, my secret lover, you are my saving grace. You are the one that I unite with when I am all alone; I need you, my love. Mount me; take your throne! Look into your Beast's face...as long as I have you, Scarlet Babalon, am I ever really alone? Kiss me deeply as I penetrate you gently, slowly, my carnal delight. Scream my name, bite my neck, do me right, you I never fight. Only a fool would consider our love insignificant and cheap. I never take you for granted, I want you always...don't go. I remember when you said that you would always be mine, forever to keep;
Scarlet Babalon, for you, I eternally weep...
Scarlet Babalon, for you I eternally burn...
