Preface: I had nearly completed a pretty in-depth and much better written reply to this post which was lost due to strange circumstances despite my pre-emptive attempts to save it. That being said, I'll soldier on as best I can at this point... Well, I can't be bothered to dig through all the links ...

Wow! There's a lot going on with this question! First thing springs to mind is: this is a perfect example of why one should keep a magickal diary or journal. What you've been eating would be the first thing to look into regarding the odor of your feces. I would like to know what are your religous/ma...

This should probably be in the Audio Forum but whatevs... Lots of great music mentioned in this thread! Gotta second Sun O))), Coil, Current 93 and Tool's Lateralus. When it comes to "magickal music" I tend to put them into two groups - music that puts me into a magickal state or body/emot...

Hail & greetings all! Based on my current understanding, I would have to somewhat echo palindrom's post. There's the Western Hermetic/Kabbalistic interpretation derived from the Tetragrammaton that explains the journey as being a metophorical/allegorical tale of the redemption or re-spiritualiza...

Just wanted to say that reading this thread has been really fun. Thanks Haelos and Shinichi - you two's too cool!

"Randomly" stumbled across eLliS somehow and remembered seeing this thread (obviously). Guess my recent urge to do some more Project Mayhem-style Operation Mindfuck glamour-bombing again tuned in to the web. Pretty weird in the best possible way! Adding mo' nodez to the net.

Nice work! [thumbup] It's always cool to be able to put a face and, in this case, a voice as well to internet forum peoples. Glad to see you went full screen, although I kinda wish we could've seen the website for occult dentistry. That was really interesting though - occult dentistry! Thanks for sh...

The article completely ignores the millions of people across the entire planet who have claimed to have made contact with supposed alien beings. Along with their personal testimonies, there exists photographic and video evidence, forensic evidence such as footprints, indentations from landing gear, ...

Haelos offers some great advice here. lostnponder - it all depends on whether you want to stay strictly within a qabbalistic framework. I don't have a ton of experience with qabbalistic evocations but what you'll want to do is find out which being corresponds with what it is you want. Let's say you...

Does anyone else here think of the occult as a way of delving into themselves and giving themselves permission to examine the contents of the unconscious mind? ("I am Legion; I contain multitudes.") Yes. Or are you folks mostly literalists who think of the occult as the alienated existent...

Yes, you're totally correct! I brain farted on that one (and don't work with either of them personally, although I have several friends/teachers in India who work with her): It happens to the best of us! Sadhguru gives a thorough explanation of the four yugas for those who are interested: https://w...

Since we're in the Kali Yuga (Aeon of Kali) right now, I personally believe her energy is more powerful than ever and anyone who's sincerely looking for her WILL find her. This is going on with a friend of mine right now; she began working with Kali and her life is suddenly a crazy roller coaster w...

I second what Desecrated said. It's like playing basketball for the first time, not making a single shot and declaring that making a shot is impossible. Practice, discipline, focus! And then practice, practice, practice! Pay Attention! And then more practice!

Must remember to save my drafts! Lost another epic post! [crymore] Here it is again for the first time only shorter and with less enthusiasm... Great post, Hadit ! I agree with most of what you wrote here and strongly resonate with the overall spirit of your post. I'm starting to think that maybe th...

I understand, Cybernetic_Jazz . So many people today are in the dark. But you have to have some perspective and look at things from a historical POV. This is where knowledge of the processions of ages and being in tune with the currents become relevant. So much has changed in such a short period of ...

Epic post lost due to system malfunction! [crymore] Sigh, don't have it in me to re-type everything again so I'll cut to the chase... "Abrogating" laws is part of the divine plan. One only needs to take a quick glance at history to see this is obvious. Try going back to, say the 1500's dre...

Isis was Osiris' consort and Osiris is the dying god of the old aeon. The dead Osiris is reborn via the power of Ra-Heru-Khuti, or Ra-Heru-akhety, and becomes the djed pillar himself, or the middle pillar on the Tree of Life. Isis means "throne", equating her with unifying authority and po...

We are the intelligent designers. We are god. (Approaching god-hood, anyways) We are the ones with the intelligence to measure. We create and define what we observe. It is only the god within that can receive the god without. Real recognize real, homey. I think what you have here is pretty cool, but...

I see. So are you saying that we are god?

Looks like The Three Stooges dropped by and tired to build a ladder maybe? Fereal though - have no clue. Kinda looks like the Hebrew letter shin. Pretty weird, but doesn't seem like it's any kind of hex or fetish or anything like that. I get the feeling it was improvised to serve some practical func...

Pretty cool! Your rationale for the existence of "god" seems pretty weak though. Also we should define what you mean by "god"? That word conjures up many different ideas for a lot of people. Are we talking Angry Dad in the Sky/Yahweh-style god, or Abstract Force What Creates and ...

Greetings anton!

I too have been working with the UFO contact paradigm. Welcome back from a noob to these forums! Looking forward to hearing your ideas/experiences.

Maybe try some scrying or divination?

Or maybe it was the ghost of a tarot deck?!? [zomg]

Maybe this is the normal evolution of one's (perspective of) magic as a chaote. Indeed! It seems that if we take the concept to its logical extreme then we are left with but one inevitable answer. The term "chaos" itself is self-limiting and must be discarded. At the very least, it should...

Hello everyone! cyberdemon , - I like where you're coming from regarding using contemporary electronic music. Personally though, I would think that dance music would not always be appropriate, unless dancing were a part of the ritual. I just can't help myself when I hear a fonky azz beat! There's pl...
