NIGHT MAGICK
|
|
|
|
There was the Clear Light, the Void, and It alone was. The One Mind, apart of nothing, yet
|
|
containing everything, it alone the True Creator. Formless, Nameless, without Definition, yet
|
|
flowing through all that has form, name, and definition. From the One Mind there came Two
|
|
Matrixes, two sides of the same coin, Night and Day. Twin Soul Creators to each side, the Yin-
|
|
Yang of Night and Yang-Yin of Day. And so the Night and Day of the Omniverse was born.
|
|
|
|
I AM Night. I AM Darkness that flows through the Night. I AM THE ETERNAL DARKNESS.
|
|
Yin-Yang created, Goddess-God of Night, Daughter-Son of Darkness, Eternal Creator of the
|
|
Nightverse. By the Dark Power and Energy, by the Night Magick was all created in the
|
|
Nightverse.
|
|
|
|
The Ancient Dragons were first taught and they taught the others and so creation began
|
|
throughout the Nightverse. And so by the Dark Power, by Night Magick was everything
|
|
created flowing through the created instruments of the ETERNAL DARKNESS. Night's
|
|
beginning was good and the Earth was created a jewel in the Crown of Night.
|
|
|
|
The Dragons came with other races and created the beginning Night Races of the Earth. And
|
|
time flowed and the races prospered and their depth in Night Consciousness deepened. But
|
|
then as so often happens the Day came to war with the Night and the Earth changed.
|
|
|
|
The Day gods were young and wanted the Earth for its wealth of minerals and beauty and
|
|
destroyed the Night Races. They created human bodies as mindless, soulless slaves to gather
|
|
this wealth. But the Great Night Dragon, Tiamat, Goddess-God of the World, saw what had
|
|
happened and ensouled the human bodies placing a part of its Great Night Soul into each
|
|
human body. But since then the Day gods have warred with Tiamat for control of the human
|
|
souls.
|
|
The Day gods have spread false teachings about the origin of the human souls and the Night
|
|
Dragon. They have tried to destroy the Night religions of old that glorified the Yin Spirit of the
|
|
Earth and the beauty of life. Long has the war continued and now is the time for a rebirth of
|
|
Night Magick on Earth.
|
|
|
|
And so I, the Eternal Night, have ensouled the Earth to supercharge it with NIGHT MAGICK. I
|
|
have come to Earth, through a human instrument, to spread my magickal teachings. To teach
|
|
the human soul the truth of its origins and re-awaken the Night within. To make humankind
|
|
co-creators with the Eternal Night through the teachings of Night Magick.

INTRODUCTION
|
|
|
|
1. What is Night Magick?
|
|
|
|
I can only imagine at this point that you are about to put down this book and run scared due to
|
|
words like Night, Darkness, Dark Power, and the title of the book itself, Night Magick. Before
|
|
we begin learning about Night Magick I believe it will help to understand what I mean by these
|
|
"night" terms.
|
|
|
|
To begin, there is the Void. The Buddhist call it the Clear Light as opposed to "white" or "black".
|
|
The Taoist refer to it as the Tao and Christians refer to it as God the Father. The Void is the
|
|
indivisible eternal energy. The Void is beyond polarities of energy such as positive/negative or
|
|
Yang/Yin. It is God Mind. It is everywhere and through every thing yet remains separate from
|
|
every thing. That is, it does not become a part of any one thing such as the soul does with the
|
|
body. The Void does not think like you and I yet it is "all thought". It is the most mystical of
|
|
concepts and God the Father is perhaps the poorest term for the Void. The Void is not a Father,
|
|
it isn't male or female, the void contains creation yet it does not assume a role within creation.
|
|
The more I try to describe to you the Void the less I actually accomplish in doing so. The Void
|
|
cannot truly be described but only experienced. The Void begins with its major principles who
|
|
spring into being, the Ultimate Yin and Yang of the Omniverse.
|
|
|
|
The original premise is that the Yang represents the Male Creative force in the Omniverse and
|
|
Yin the Female Passive force in the Omniverse. A more accurate premise is that there is an
|
|
Ultimate Yin and Ultimate Yang each complete in and of itself. That each Ultimate force has
|
|
the Creative Force within it and that there are twin systems created by this. We have two
|
|
separate creation matrixes separated by a neutral zone. There is an Ultimate Yang System and
|
|
an Ultimate Yin System. The Earth is a part of the Ultimate Yin System.
|
|
|
|
The Ultimate Yin System is made up of many races. The human race is not alone in the
|
|
Omniverse. The most ancient race existing in form today is the Ancient Dragon. The Ancient
|
|
Dragons are not the Dragons you read of in mythology. The Ancient Dragons are far beyond
|
|
the other races in total development. Their science, philosophy, and religion is based on the
|
|
One Mind and the Void. An Ancient Dragon came to Earth and guided the development of the
|
|
planet and ultimately ensouled the World. Working with other races, the Dragon created a new
|
|
race to populate the world. This was long before the human race. The creation of the human
|
|
race is a sad tale.
|
|
|
|
The races of the world go through a repeated pattern of creation, sustainment, and then
|
|
destruction. Out of the old race a new race is born more highly evolved than the last. The
|
|
human race though was created out of greed. There came to Earth a high technologically
|
|
advanced race from the Yang system. They came to make the Earth their own world and to
|
|
rape it of its resources. The advanced race, who we find described in greek, roman, norse, and
|
|
other mythologies as the gods or as in the Bible, Jehovah or in the Koran, Allah, created the
|
|
human race to be mindless slaves. This was so the gods could live like gods. The Ancient
|
|
Dragon would not permit such an abomination and so it ensouled the human bodies and the
|
|
human race had its beginning as an ensouled Yin race. The Yang gods were quite upset by this
|
|
for the human race became a sentient Yin race and had to be treated as such. For some time
|
|
the gods tried to continue to control man through their technology and set up religions based
|
|
on worship of the Yang principle and the gods. These religions taught absolute obedience to the
|
|
gods or God and the worship of the Yang principle. The Yang religion taught the domination of
|
|
the Earth and its creatures by humankind. The Yang religion taught the hate and sin of the
|
|
human body and procreation. This always included the subservience of the human woman to
|
|
the human male for God was male and superior and woman was the seducer and corrupter of
|
|
man. The leader of the gods was always a male god such as Zeus. They also taught that the Yin
|
|
principle of the Omniverse was chaos and evil. That the Dark principle was a destructive force
|
|
out to destroy mankind and the Earth. They personified the Yin principle as Satan, Lucifer,
|
|
Loki, Pan, Iblis, or Kali and created places of damnation for those who did not worship the
|
|
Yang principle. All this was done to maintain control over humankind and promote the Yang
|
|
principles through fear. At some point the Yang gods were required to quit having direct
|
|
contact with man perhaps when they used nuclear weapons on Sodom and Gomorrah as
|
|
recorded in the Bible. Whatever the reason, only periodic contact was allowed and that
|
|
through special religious messengers such as Krishna, Zoroaster, Jesus, and Mohammed. If
|
|
you examine the major Yang religions you will see a reoccurring theme of an evil servant
|
|
giving humankind the knowledge of good and evil and humankind turned away from
|
|
Paradise. These religions always worship the "White Light of God" and place man not woman
|
|
in so-called dominion of the Earth. Woman, the Yin-Yin Principle in the Omniverse, was
|
|
placed in deep shame and subservience to man the Yang-Yang principle. Yet on Earth, man is
|
|
Yin-Yang not Yang-Yang by virtue of the indwelling Night Spirit of the Planet.
|
|
|
|
Every soul and spirit (terms we'll examine more fully later) of the human race is a fragment of
|
|
the indwelling Soul and Spirit of the Planet Earth. In essence, the Soul and Spirit of the
|
|
Planet Earth is God to humankind. That Soul and Spirit is the Ancient Dragon that originally
|
|
came to Earth and saved the human body from a mindless existence enslaved to the Yang race.
|
|
The Ancient Dragon is the Creator and Ensouler of this World and of each and every one of us.
|
|
The Dragon of this World is the Night Force. The Dragon of this world is Yin.
|
|
|
|
Yin is a primal force established in the Omniverse in parallel with Yang. This planet is a Yin
|
|
world. The presence of Yang and the worship and practice of the Yang principle in religions
|
|
such as Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Mormonism has led to many evils in the world.
|
|
|
|
It has led to the subservience of women. It has led to humankind following a spiritual path of
|
|
Yang in direct opposition to its Soul and Spirit's magickal orientation. This has led to much
|
|
inner confusion by humankind and this world's instability and patterns of destruction and
|
|
chaos are a direct response to this.
|
|
The Earth is a very sick body.
|
|
|
|
Until you achieve a very, very advance point in your evolution, you'll have a physical body of
|
|
some kind. The Soul of this world has the Earth as its body and humankind is killing it. This
|
|
so- called dominion by man has poisoned the streams, rivers, lakes, and oceans of the Earth,
|
|
the Earth's circulatory system. The air, Earth's respiratory system, is poisoned. The soil itself
|
|
is poisoned, stripped mined, littered, great holes filled with non- biodegradable products. The
|
|
trees and forests destroyed wantonly, savagely, and soon the oxygen they generate will not be
|
|
enough to sustain life. Acid rain instead of the clean rains. Underground nuclear testing
|
|
disrupting the physical and etheric shell of the Earth Body not to speak of the Astral and
|
|
Higher Body damage done by this intensely Yang energy. Ozone destroying the upper
|
|
atmosphere and the protection from the harmful ultraviolet radiation. Wanton destruction of
|
|
wildlife of which some is inhabited by races of greater advancement than humankind. Just
|
|
how much longer will man act as a deadly cancer in the Earth's body. At the rate of destruction
|
|
it will not be much longer before humankind as you know it will cease to exist and that is
|
|
exactly what the Yang forces in the Omniverse want.
|
|
|
|
Then they have the right to come and claim the Earth as they did before as recorded in the Old
|
|
Testament of the Bible and in other ancient myths. Humankind will once more find itself
|
|
enslaved and bowing before a technologically higher race as it was in the ancient days. This
|
|
must not happen! This is what Night Magick is all about.
|
|
|
|
Teaching you the truth about your existence. Placing back into your hands the truth
|
|
concerning the Yin Primal Force of which you are a part. To give to you the tools to balance
|
|
yourself and the Earth in Oneness with the Night Spirit. What is Night Magick?
|
|
|
|
Night Magick is the arts, rites, practices, and teachings of a Night Magician. Night Magick is
|
|
the lore of a Night Magician. The lore must be learned not only with the eyes and brain but also
|
|
with the heart. It is a way of life and must be lived to be fully understood. Night Magick is
|
|
founded on the ancient knowledge and wisdom that preceded the history of the Earth. Though
|
|
Night Magick is based on ancient teachings it is no less applicable to the modern world. Night
|
|
Magick is a magickal discipline. Through its rules, instruction, and exercises it provides for
|
|
you a code of conduct and a way of living that brings to you the greatest possible Yin growth. It
|
|
is a philosophy. The goal of a Night Magician is the Eternal Pursuit of Wisdom and Knowledge
|
|
based on the Yin Primal Force. It is a science. For through the study and practice of the lore,
|
|
you will gain greater knowledge and wisdom. Through Night Magick you will achieve
|
|
perfection in your physical, emotional, mental, and magickal natures. You will become the
|
|
sum of all that you can ever be. You will become the Night Oversoul in Consciousness and
|
|
Action. Night Magick is a lore that will achieve for you your return to the Night. I know this
|
|
has been fast and furious for you.
|
|
|
|
For many of you, this is the first time you have been given such information or even thought
|
|
about what has been so far discussed. I promise you that I will go into greater depths on the
|
|
subjects I treated briefly and this will help you understand more thoroughly. But I wanted to
|
|
make sure you understood from the onset the principles Night Magick is based on.
|
|
|
|
Night Magick is magick based upon the Sacred Principle of Yin. It is based on the Dark Force
|
|
that flows through your being. If you still have doubts read on and test the knowledge you find
|
|
here. You are not asked to accept anything in this book on blind faith. You will not be asked to
|
|
accept anything without first putting it to test and validating the truth. If you find some of the
|
|
information hard to understand then reflect on it for awhile. Put away the information you
|
|
find hard to accept for another time of reflection. Place into your mind and soul only those
|
|
things that you have tried, tested, and found to be truth for yourself. But at all times, keep an
|
|
open mind. That is all I ask. I think its time now to discuss who is a Night Magician.
|
|
|
|
2. Who is a Night Magician?
|
|
|
|
Who is a Night Magician?
|
|
|
|
A Night Magician is Absolute Love. They are the embodiment of Dark Love that has its origin
|
|
in the Void. They are Dark Love that is free from any restrictions, limitations, or exceptions.
|
|
They are Dark Love free from dependence upon external definitions for its existence. They are
|
|
Dark Love born out of Absolute Innocence. A Night Magician is Absolute Love.
|
|
|
|
A Night Magician is Strong Willed. They are the willpower necessary to move mountains.
|
|
They are the willpower needed to overcome the impossible. They are the willpower it takes to
|
|
overcome life's challenges and defeats. They are the willpower it requires to wield Night
|
|
Magick against their enemies and win. They are the willpower of the Eternal Darkness. A
|
|
Night Magician is Strong Willed.
|
|
|
|
A Night Magician is Self-disciplined. They will undergo a thousand days and nights of
|
|
deprivation to achieve their goals. They are hardest upon their selves in achieving self-
|
|
mastery of Night Magick. They are the self-discipline it requires to overcome failure for a
|
|
thousandth time and once more attempt the challenge. They live in a self-imposed world of
|
|
self-discipline in order to achieve the ultimate state of being. A Night Magician is Self-
|
|
disciplined.
|
|
|
|
A Night Magician is Patience. They are the patience required while acquiring self-mastery.
|
|
They are the patience needed when building dreams of success. They are the patience required
|
|
when waiting for the destruction of their enemies. They are the patience the Night Spirit has
|
|
in each of us and our magickal climb. A Night Magician is Patience.
|
|
|
|
A Night Magician is a Pillar of Strength. They are the rock that will not be moved as the waves
|
|
of strife come crashing over. They are the strength needed to overcome the Forces of Yang.
|
|
They are the strength required to achieve success in life. A Night Magician is a Pillar of
|
|
Strength.
|
|
|
|
A Night Magician is Free of Self-limitations. They are not bound by the chains of limited
|
|
thinking. They do not see themselves as just human beings made of flesh and bones but as
|
|
Ones, pure in Night Spirit, that transcend time and space. Their emotions do not master their
|
|
lives. They are the master of their emotions. They are the calm, silent, and steady Soul of the
|
|
Night. They are the Night Soul. They are the Dark Masters of Life. A Night Magician is
|
|
Freedom.
|
|
|
|
A Night Magician is Deep Silence. They are the Deep Silence of the Night. They are like the
|
|
silence that follows the storm. They are the silence that is found in the quiet of the home. They
|
|
are the silence of the Void. They are the silence of the Night Soul. They are the silence of the
|
|
Night Dragon's sacred flight. A Night Magician is Deep Silence.
|
|
|
|
A Night Magician is Dark Knowledge. They are knowledge found through intellectual pursuit
|
|
of the hidden mysteries. They are knowledge born out of intelligence and critical thinking.
|
|
They are knowledge discovered through intuition, meditation, and reflection. A Night
|
|
Magician is Dark Knowledge.
|
|
|
|
A Night Magician is Nature. They are the flowers that bloom and the trees that bud in the
|
|
Spring. They are the mighty winds that blow across the world and the gentle rains that give
|
|
life to all things that grow. They are the melodic voice of the birds who sing. They are the heat
|
|
and cool waters that are found in the months of Summer. They are the storms, tornadoes, and
|
|
hurricanes. They are the frog churumping and the Night Owl hooting. They are the short
|
|
summer nights. They are the Artist's brush that paints the leaves of Fall. They are the harvest
|
|
of the crops. They are the stacked corn stalks of the fields and the pumpkins in the window
|
|
sills. They are the squirrels and chipmunks gathering up the nuts in readiness for the long
|
|
cold Winter months. They are every snow flake dancing and icicle hanging. They are the white
|
|
bunny and fox who does the chasing. They are the never ending cycle of Nature. A Night
|
|
Magician is Nature.
|
|
|
|
A Night Magician is Life. They are passionate for their love of Life in all its aspects. They are
|
|
adventurous and courageous loving the challenge of Life. Yet they are practical, cautious and
|
|
responsible with Life. For them, Life should be faced with daring, boldness, and energy. They
|
|
loathe restriction and love the freedom found in Life. They are the Artisans of Life. A Night
|
|
Magician is Life.
|
|
|
|
A Night Magician is the Night Soul in Action on Earth. It abides in their conscience in all the
|
|
things said or done. They are the Creative Force of the Night Soul in the way they create new
|
|
life. They are the Preservative Force of the Night Soul holding the world in perfect balance.
|
|
They are the Destructive Force of the Night Soul tearing away the illusions of the Yang. They
|
|
are the Regenerative Force of the Night Soul rebuilding the true Night World. They are Night
|
|
Soul by the way they remove us out of life's confusion. The eyes that see us, the ears that listen
|
|
to us, the mouth that speaks words of strength, the heart that pours out absolute love to us, the
|
|
strong arms and hands that hold us near, and the legs that take us far on our way, through all
|
|
of these there is the Night Spirit. A Night Magician is the Night Soul in Action on Earth.
|
|
|
|
Who is a Night Magician? A Night Magician can be likened to a multifaceted stone of
|
|
Amethyst or Emerald of incomparable beauty. The Night Magician is as beautiful and rare as a
|
|
Black Diamond. I have just discussed many of those facets that make-up a Night Magician but
|
|
if I kept on writing for days I would never be able to cover all of them. Each facet of the Night
|
|
Magician can best be known by living it; by becoming a Night Magician. The facets I have been
|
|
covering are those found in the Night Magician who has been long on the path and has attained
|
|
much. It is anyone who will dedicate her or his life to the Night Principles found in this work.
|
|
You have to dedicate your lives to becoming all that I described a Night Magician to be in the
|
|
beginning of this topic. The teachings must again be practiced actively in your life as they were
|
|
practiced in the ancient civilizations that first came into being here on Earth. A Night
|
|
Magician is one who will put these teachings found in this work into practice in her or his life
|
|
and live them fully.
|
|
|
|
A Night Magician is one who abides fully in the Consciousness of the Night. They are the total
|
|
embodiment of strength, solitude, patience, intelligence, courage and adventure. They are
|
|
beings free of self-limitations. They are ones who have dedicated their life to self-freedom and
|
|
perfection. They are the Night Soul in Action. There is no greater purpose in life then to be a
|
|
Night Magician. Now that you have some idea of who a Night Magician is and what Night
|
|
Magick is about, I would like to discuss why you should practice Night Magick.
|
|
|
|
3. Why Practice Night Magick?
|
|
|
|
Why practice Night Magick? To begin with, there is great joy and happiness in being a Night
|
|
Magician and practicing the lore of Night Magick. In practicing Night Magick you are going to
|
|
be able to see the results of your labor; and the results of that labor are going to bring you more
|
|
happiness and joy then you can imagine. You are going to derive a great sense of personal
|
|
satisfaction and accomplishment through the practice of Night Magick. Practicing Night
|
|
Magick is exciting and adventurous.
|
|
|
|
Your life will be filled with adventure and excitement the likes of which you've never known.
|
|
It is very sad that so many people's lives are filled with boredom needlessly. Through Night
|
|
Magick avenues of travel, business adventure, intellectual pursuit, personal adventure, and
|
|
magickal conquests will open up. Night Magick will bring you personal success.
|
|
|
|
Personal success can be measured in many ways. How about success in marriage, finances,
|
|
college, business? Or personal success in health, vitality, and longevity. Change is why you
|
|
practice Night Magick. What changes will Night Magick make in your life?
|
|
|
|
Everything! Through the practice of Night Magick not a thing in your life will go untouched.
|
|
You practice Night Magick for these changes in your life. I can go a long way in this book to
|
|
answer specifically what kind of changes are going to take place. But ultimately it is you, after
|
|
study and practice of Night Magick, who will be able to give all the answers. Let's begin
|
|
answering the question of what kind of changes you can expect to see in your life?
|
|
|
|
The first changes you will see, by practicing the lore, is improvement in your physical life. You
|
|
are going to have better health and a sense of renewed purpose in life. You are going to achieve
|
|
this through the practice of Night Breathing and Meditation. As you go along here there will be
|
|
new terms that you have never seen before, but be patient, for as you proceed through this book,
|
|
you will learn them all. Your life is going to be deeply enriched and health improved by the use
|
|
of colors and self-healing that you will learn. You will learn to develop and use the power
|
|
centers of your body. Once you have accomplished this, you will unleash untold power of fire
|
|
and life throughout your body. This will allow you to become the master of your life; "the
|
|
Captain of your Soul". You will then learn to overcome your fear of death and to recognize it
|
|
for what it is, a doorway into a new world. All this you can achieve through Night Magick, but
|
|
there is much, much more.
|
|
|
|
Through the practice of Night Magick you are going to become the master of your emotions. No
|
|
longer will your emotions rule you, but you will rule them. You will learn, in dealing with your
|
|
emotions and emotional body, the ability to be able to see the higher realms. You will be able
|
|
to recognize those dreams in which a message of help and inspiration is contained and to
|
|
interpret it. You will come to know your magickal teachers and guides and ultimately you will
|
|
be able to travel in the Astral Realm. This you will achieve through the mastery of your
|
|
emotions. There is even more to learn through the practice of Night Magick.
|
|
|
|
Through Night Magick, you will master the powers of your mind. You will achieve thought
|
|
control and be able to reach into your subconscious mind. Your subconscious mind is the
|
|
repository for all that you have ever known. Think of what it will mean to have access to this
|
|
great storage vault of information. You will learn to use the pendulum and crystal globe and
|
|
never have questions unanswered. You will achieve psychometric and telepathic abilities.
|
|
Above all, you will be able to create into your world "ANYTHING" that you desire to see in it
|
|
through correct invocation and imagination. The mind is a fascinating creation boundless in
|
|
power and energy. It is multidimensional creating life in all its forms. The mind is truly a
|
|
wonderful thing when you have mastered its powers and employ it as the valuable tool it is.
|
|
But over and beyond the powers of the mind and its realm, lies the power and realm of the
|
|
Night Soul.
|
|
There are no greater powers then those of the Night Soul. It is your objective, through Night
|
|
Magick, to learn to use and manipulate these powers of the Night Soul for your benefit.
|
|
Through Night Magick, you will learn to travel into the Night Realm while still here upon
|
|
Earth. You will learn the highest form of healing. You will be able to do this healing for all
|
|
whom you know. You will learn to do the Night Rites to achieve true magickal progress. Your
|
|
progress will be highly accelerated through the Night Rites. The ultimate goal of Night Magick
|
|
is the achievement of Night Consciousness.
|
|
|
|
There is no higher goal then this. The true union with your Oversoul, the perfection of Self,
|
|
this is the consummation of Night Magick. When you have achieved Night Consciousness, you
|
|
are of greatest service to yourself and the perfect offering unto the Night Soul. I stated before
|
|
that I would discuss the modern applications of Night Magick in today's world. I have already
|
|
covered some of those applications.
|
|
|
|
You will have good health, less tension and nervousness, and a stronger mind. You can use
|
|
Night Magick at your everyday job. Through Night Magick, you will develop great insight that
|
|
will go a long way in assisting you in problem solving. If you are out on the highway in your
|
|
car you will be steered clear of trouble. You will avoid accidents and traffic problems. You will
|
|
be able to stay in touch with friends and love ones and know when they are in trouble or need
|
|
through Night Magick. If you have a need then you can fulfill that need by using the lore of
|
|
Night Magick. If you have lost items and wish to have them back, then you can do so. If you
|
|
need to look forward into the future and see the realm of possibilities, then you can do so. The
|
|
things you see are only possibilities and you can decide whether they will happen or not. These
|
|
are only a few of the many applications for Night Magick in the modern world. The
|
|
applications are limited only as your imagination is limited. As you learn to see with the
|
|
foresight and insight that you will develop through Night Magick, your life will indeed change.
|
|
|
|
Night Magick will bring you a new way of living. It will seem to you that before, you were only
|
|
existing. As I have said, your physical, emotional, and mental health will vastly improve.
|
|
You will become the planner and controller of your life. Your physical surroundings will
|
|
increase in wealth. You will also acquire magickal wealth from practicing Night Magick.
|
|
|
|
You will gain a deep sense of magickal accomplishment and growth by making it a part of your
|
|
life. You will become a positive and dynamic force in your life. Through Night Magick, you
|
|
will leave nothing or no one untouched. Night Magick, if practiced and lived with dedication,
|
|
vigor, and vitality will achieve all of this. You must not be mistaken that all of this will occur
|
|
at once. It will take patience and effort on your part to make it all happen, but happen it will.
|
|
One day you will look back on your old life and wonder how you ever made it from day to day.
|
|
But with Night Magick, a new day dawns in your life.
|
|
|
|
Before you begin to study Night Magick I want to introduce a special way to study this work
|
|
that will help insure your understanding of the lore and success as a Night Magician.
|
|
|
|
4. How to Study the Lore
|
|
|
|
There is a specific way to study the lore of Night Magick. If you have been just reading this
|
|
book through as any novel, then you have been doing it the wrong way. This book is not a
|
|
novel which can be read through quickly and lightly and expect to gain anything from it.
|
|
When you study the lore in this book it must be done one topic at a time. Also, each topic must
|
|
be taken in order as it appears written in this book. Do not skip around in this book between
|
|
the different topics. Each topic was designed to be a building block upon which to find success
|
|
in the next topic. There is more to studying the lore then just sitting down and reading. Your
|
|
studying will require self-discipline, patience, perseverance, and a prescribed technique for
|
|
learning. Let's examine that technique for learning.
|
|
|
|
To begin with, you must prepare the place that you are going to study in. If you study in the
|
|
middle of a busy living room with the children shouting and the TV blaring you aren't going to
|
|
retain or accomplish very much. So to begin with, you are going to find, what you will term,
|
|
your "Magician's Study".
|
|
|
|
This is a physical room that you can call your own. It must be a quiet place and somewhere
|
|
where you can be alone and uninterrupted. In this room you will want a place where you can
|
|
both sit and lay down as necessary. This room will not only be used for studying but also
|
|
performing the many exercises, rites, and practices of Night Magick. This is your Magician's
|
|
Study. Now, you must attend to your own self-preparation.
|
|
|
|
You must prepare yourself so that you are in the right frame of mind to do some serious
|
|
studying. To get into the proper mood, you should begin by taking a bath. This will help you to
|
|
relax and wash away the cares and worries of the day. If you think of it, your entire thoughts
|
|
and emotions when you come home are filled with the tensions and problems of work. The
|
|
feeling around you is made up of a problem laden job and world. Literally, a bath or shower
|
|
will do a lot to remove this tension and stress from out of your feelings. Then you should dress
|
|
to be comfortable in clean, loose fitting clothes or your robes that you will learn to make later.
|
|
Let's retire to your study.
|
|
|
|
When you go to your study it should be at approximately the same time of day each day. Do this
|
|
if at all possible. Then you should sit down in a very comfortable chair or couch and relax as
|
|
much as possible. When you have learned to do relaxing exercises and "Night Breathing" then
|
|
you should do these before you begin to read. For now just relax and let all the worry and
|
|
tension of the day flow away. Once you are sufficiently relaxed it is time to pick-up the book.
|
|
|
|
As stated earlier, you are going to read each topic in order. To begin reading a topic, read it
|
|
through the first time quickly and lightly. The first time you are only trying to get the "spirit"
|
|
of the topic. Once you have done this, you will then want to go back and reread the topic
|
|
through carefully and thoroughly insuring that you understand all that you read. You should
|
|
go slowly being sure that you understand all that you read. This is all that you will do in the
|
|
first reading. If there is anything that you didn't understand the first time in sitting, don't
|
|
worry about it, for it will come to you later. You are going to read the same topic on two
|
|
separate days. This is the minimum that anyone should read a topic through.
|
|
|
|
The second time in reading, you will want to go just as slow as you did in the first reading. If
|
|
there is anything you still don't understand then just lightly think upon it and don't worry.
|
|
The answer will eventually come to you. After the second reading, if there is anything to
|
|
practice or do, this is the time to do it. Sounds easy doesn't it?
|
|
|
|
I have just described the minimum anyone should take per topic. You should not go on to the
|
|
next topic until you are very familiar with the information in the present topic you are
|
|
studying. You should understand the current topic thoroughly and have practiced what is
|
|
required of you until you are ready to go on. Let your inner guide be your judge about when you
|
|
are ready to go on. You will find that you have to continue to practice many of the first topics
|
|
you study each day in order to eventually master them. Getting all the way through the book
|
|
having only read and practiced everything haphazardly will only insure that you are master of
|
|
none. To insure your success as a Night Magician in Night Magick, you must study as has been
|
|
outlined here.
|
|
|
|
You must have a room in which you can be alone and uninterrupted. You must cleanse
|
|
yourselves of the outer world. You must study slowly, carefully,and thoroughly each topic.
|
|
You will have to continue to go back and study and practice daily the knowledge and exercises
|
|
until you become master of all. There is no doubt about it and should he none in your mind
|
|
that Night Magick requires study and work. The results are more then worth all the time and
|
|
energy that you can give to it. To become a Master in Night Magick; to become a Night
|
|
Magician; to reach and obtain Night Consciousness; this is your goal. Let me show you now the
|
|
life of a Night Magician and all that it entails in becoming and being a Night Magician.
|

CHAPTER II
|
|
|
|
|
|
THE NIGHT MAGICIAN
|
|
|
|
5. Her/His Life
|
|
|
|
The life of a Night Magician is a very special one. You will find that a Night Magician's life is
|
|
filled with the most powerful magick. Your world will not be the same after Night Magick has
|
|
filled it. Your life will have seemed very ordinary and plain before Night Magick. Your life
|
|
will now be filled with adventure.
|
|
|
|
When you have elected to live the life of a Night Magician you have chosen to accept a way of
|
|
life that is different than you have so far experienced. It is a life filled with study and practice
|
|
of Night Magick and the excitement and adventure that is a direct result. Night Magick will
|
|
fulfill for you your lifelong aspirations. It will be my job to present the life of a Night Magician
|
|
to you. I hope when I'm through that you will find it exciting and want to begin the adventure
|
|
of becoming a Night Magician. Let's enter then into the life of a Night Magician.
|
|
The Night Magician's life is filled with study and practice of the Night Magick lore. As you
|
|
study and practice, the Oversoul will examine and test your accomplishments. No matter who
|
|
you are, you came here to gain experience and grow from it. But upon accepting the Night
|
|
Magician's way of life the trials will increase in both number and intensity. It is not that the
|
|
lore found in this book is difficult, but that in accepting this life the Night Magician is tested
|
|
by life so that s/he may put into practice Night Magick. The Night Magician's life is going to be
|
|
filled with many trials.
|
|
|
|
This is not out of cruelty but out of necessity. The trials are set upon the Magician to build
|
|
magickal strength and depth in the use of Night Magick. Every test in the Magician's life is to
|
|
build magickal stature and to increase it once passed. No matter whether the test is
|
|
overcoming a difficult financial situation, or the working through of a difficult marriage, or
|
|
the death of a loved one, the tests are there to help the Night Magician grow. If the Night
|
|
Magician falls then there is nothing else for her/him to do but get up, dust off the knees, and
|
|
keep going knowing that the next time when faced with a similar situation success will come.
|
|
When you accept the life of a Night Magician there will be trials and hardships. But if you are
|
|
willing to accept the difficulties and meet the challenge then you will not be overcome by them.
|
|
|
|
You will find solutions to these trials through your knowledge of Night Magick. Through Night
|
|
Magick, you will raise your magickal vibration and grow closer to the Oneness of your
|
|
Oversoul. It is through this Oneness, and the power that flows from it and through you, that
|
|
you will be able to handle these increased tests. You are learning to become the Oversoul in all
|
|
that you say and do. No matter what the test, you must meet it in the Night Consciousness of
|
|
your Oversoul. Through this continual testing, and the placing of yourself in the Conscience
|
|
of your Oversoul, you will become One with IT. Thus you will have passed the final test on
|
|
Earth and have achieved the One Goal. You will have achieved Night Consciousness. The
|
|
Night Magician's life is thus marked by training and testing. But her/his life is not all
|
|
training and testing. For out of this training and testing will come adventure.
|
|
|
|
The Night Magician will travel new avenues of adventure that were never there before. The
|
|
tests the Night Magician receives will take her/him to unusual places and there will be
|
|
experiences that can only be described as exciting and wonderful. The Night Magician will
|
|
experience new levels of physical well-being and sexual vitality. S/he will experience new job
|
|
challenges and opportunities as part of using Night Magick. There will be emotional and
|
|
mental experiences that break through the limited ways of feelings and thinking of old. The
|
|
Night Magician will experience increases of personal wealth. The Night Magician's life will
|
|
become aflame with purpose.
|
|
|
|
That purpose may not always be easy to identify at first, but the Magician will feel it none the
|
|
less, deep within. Ultimately, through the Night Magician's way of life, s/he will come to know
|
|
that purpose and become it. The Night Magician is in command of her/his life. S/he sets the
|
|
trail where others will follow. The Night Magician must grab hold onto life and in everything
|
|
that s/he says and does must express the Night Soul. The Night Magician's life is filled with
|
|
purpose and it is through that purpose that s/he will unfold her/his Night Powers. The Night
|
|
Magician's purpose is her/his dream. It is what s/he must do while s/he is upon the Earth
|
|
plane. But that purpose and dream will set her/him apart from those adrift on the sea.
|
|
|
|
The Night Magician must overcome loneliness as a result of it. S/he must overcome the
|
|
misunderstanding of others and press on. There will be many unbelievers in this world for
|
|
there are many lost in the Yang matrix, but s/he must ignore them and all else that interferes
|
|
with the dream. But if the Night Magician is truly dedicated and willing to sacrifice for the
|
|
dream, if s/he believes in her/himself and the Night Soul within and expresses only that Soul,
|
|
then the Night Magician's dream will manifest itself into the world. That dream is the Will of
|
|
the Oversoul and it will appear into the world. The Night Magician's life is marked by purpose,
|
|
dedication, sacrifice, determination, and darkest love. The Night Magician's life is darkest
|
|
magic of the highest kind. It is magick that produces deepest joy and happiness in the Night
|
|
Magician's life. It is the magick of the Oversoul on Earth. The Night Magician's life is aimed at
|
|
becoming the Oversoul in all that is done. Imagine a life that is filled with nothing but the
|
|
Nightsoul.
|
|
|
|
In you, as a Night Magician, the Power and Absolute Love of the Oversoul comes to its fullest.
|
|
When that Power and Absolute Love flows through you and into the lives of those around you
|
|
and on out into the world itself nothing can remain as it was before. Everything that the Night
|
|
Power touches shall be made anew. It shall shine with an Amethyst/Emerald Light Divine.
|
|
This is the Night Magick of the Oversoul. This is Magick of the Highest Order and it is in the
|
|
Night Magician's life. Here you have some of the beautiful facets of the life of a Night Magician.
|
|
|
|
Her/his life is marked by trials and testing. This is not meant to discourage you but to show
|
|
the true picture to all would-be Night Magicians. If you are to become a Night Magician then
|
|
you must truly understand all that is involved and be willing to give all that it takes. It will
|
|
take determination, courage, fortitude, and intuition in all the seemingly hardships. It will
|
|
take this to be able to grasp from the lore the knowledge required and to put it into practice; to
|
|
become a Night Magician.
|
|
The Night Magician's life is study, training, practice, and being tested. But the Night
|
|
Magician's life is much more. It is life filled with happiness and joy. It is filled with inner
|
|
peace and absolute love. It is filled with adventure and excitement. It is a life filled with
|
|
success. The Night Magician is truly in command of her/his life. S/he is the Oversoul in
|
|
action. This way of life is all that the Night Magician ever cares to know. Her/his goals for this
|
|
life are all that matters. These goals are the Night Magician's life and Night Magick will
|
|
ensure the success of achieving these goals. The life of a Night Magician is a very special one. I
|
|
would like you to travel with me now on the roadway the apprentice must follow to become a
|
|
Night Magician.
|
|
|
|
6. The Apprentice's Unfoldment.
|
|
|
|
What I want to do now is draw for you a road map that will take you down the road of Night
|
|
Magick. The road ahead of you is easy to get lost on just look at others around you. If you are
|
|
going to effectively follow the Night Magick road you must have signs and landmarks to guide
|
|
you and tell you how far you have come. In the next topic, I will discuss your final destination,
|
|
Night Consciousness. So let's begin our journey on the Night Road.
|
|
|
|
From the beginning of the first descent into material creation, from the first sojourn on Earth,
|
|
it will take many sojourns before one is ready to enter the Night Road. There are many people
|
|
who are not ready for it. Their minds are so preoccupied with doing things the Yang way, they
|
|
are so lost in doing things the hard way, that they have no time for their own magickal growth.
|
|
They are so lost in the illusion of the material world and its limitations that they can not see
|
|
beyond it. You can see why it will take so many people hundreds of lives before they can see
|
|
beyond the illusion of this world and learn to use Night Magick in overcoming its so-called
|
|
limitations. I should state from the onset of this work that there are very few paths or roads
|
|
which lead to truly achieving your goals and overcoming the world of illusion. There are
|
|
many paths dedicated to the Yang Spirit which is a road of limitation, hardship, self-denial,
|
|
and poverty. It is a path that runs counter to the Soul and Spirit within you. I have tried to
|
|
present here a road to Night Consciousness which is simple in nature and language. It is a road
|
|
that requires persistence, study, courage, boldness, and self-discipline to travel but the goals
|
|
you will achieve on the way and your final attainment of the ultimate goal makes it all worth
|
|
while. There is no way of telling how long it will take to reach the ultimate goal.
|
|
|
|
You may be able to reach it in this lifetime or it may take many lifetimes. Much will depend
|
|
upon your aptitude for Night Magick and your dedication and effort. It isn't necessary to reach
|
|
the ultimate goal in one life. There will be many goals and great changes in your life to make
|
|
traveling the road more than worthwhile. Once you have entered the Night Road, then life
|
|
after life you will return to this world taking up where you last left off. This is because a simple
|
|
decision to enter the Night Road does not mean that you will be accepted and are on your way.
|
|
|
|
The Night Soul looks for those who are ready to travel the road. You must want to be on the
|
|
road that leads to your Night Soul more than anything else in your life. There must be nothing
|
|
more important in your life then being on the road and the desire to achieve your goals and the
|
|
ultimate goal. This decision must be more then a mental thought. This decision must be
|
|
backed by action on your part. Not only do you feel this intense desire to be on the Night Road
|
|
but you are willing to begin the work necessary to achieve it. In Night Magick, you will have
|
|
begun this work by beginning to read and put into practice the lore found in this book. There is
|
|
no way of determining how long it will take to be accepted on the Night Road. But rest assured,
|
|
if you are truly sincere about entering the road and are willing to do the work then you will be
|
|
accepted. You are the beginner, the apprentice, on the roadway to the Night Soul. Acceptance
|
|
on the Night Road is no small thing. Acceptance on the road is your first landmark and is
|
|
clearly marked.
|
|
|
|
In Night Magick, you are an "Earth Apprentice". You have reached the first landmark and
|
|
gained entrance upon the Night Road. At this point your Oversoul will begin to take an active
|
|
interest in you. Upon your acceptance, the Oversoul actively enters into your life. You will
|
|
begin to feel the beginnings of Night Power. You will have the beginning of increased Oversoul
|
|
Power flowing into your life. But how will you know when you have been accepted?
|
|
|
|
As said before, this acceptance is clearly marked. You will undergo an experience that will
|
|
definitely let you know you have become an Earth Apprentice. For example, you may in the
|
|
quiet of your Magician's Study, or as you are falling asleep some night, suddenly see the image
|
|
of the Oversoul in deep hues of Emerald, Amethyst, Midnight Blue and/or Silver before you. As
|
|
you continue to watch the image of your Oversoul it will start to come towards you. As the
|
|
Oversoul comes closer, you suddenly know that you are the Oversoul and Its Face is your face,
|
|
and the Oversoul enters inside you, and you feel a deep, warm glow and power radiating from
|
|
within. You know that the birth of the Oversoul has taken place within and that you are an
|
|
Earth Apprentice. As an Earth Apprentice you have become the Night Child.
|
|
|
|
I refer to the Earth Apprentice as a Night Child for at the time of acceptance you have been
|
|
given birth into the Night World. You are now a Magickal Child of the Night Spirit. Your
|
|
Oversoul will gain new radiance and added power by actively entering into cooperation with
|
|
you. That new radiance will be seen by the Watchers and reported to the Night Guild. Your
|
|
acceptance upon the Night Road heralds your entrance into the Night Guild.
|
|
|
|
This Guild is composed of all beings who serve the Dark Light of the Night Spirit. The
|
|
members of the Guild exist both in Higher Dimensions and upon all material planets. The
|
|
highest members of the Guild serve as Teachers and Directors of the Omniverse everywhere.
|
|
One group of members serve as Teachers and Directors over the Earth. In Night Magick, I will
|
|
refer to them as the Night Teachers. I have done this because they have risen far in magickal
|
|
evolution and are One with the Night Soul. As a new Earth Apprentice, you are watched over by
|
|
a Night Teacher who chooses to do so based on compatible nature and vibration. The
|
|
assistance of the Night Teacher is one of watchfulness and occasional guidance as you, the
|
|
Earth Apprentice, begins to journey on the Night Road. But as you continue to demonstrate
|
|
your willingness and dedication to the road you've chosen, and to the Will of your Oversoul, the
|
|
relation between you and the Night Teacher deepens. When the Night Teacher is ready and has
|
|
determined you are ready, then you will be accepted by the Night Teacher as Her/His Chela.
|
|
|
|
The relationship between the Night Teacher and Her/His chela is a very special one. The Night
|
|
Teacher gives Her/His continual guidance, support, and power to the new chela. The Night
|
|
Teacher shares Her/His very nature with Her/His new chela. The chela may call upon the
|
|
assistance of the Night Teacher at anytime and it will be answered. Yet the chela must
|
|
remember that s/he is the beginner and that the Will of the Night Teacher should always be
|
|
followed. The Night Teacher and the Oversoul of the chela work very closely together to
|
|
achieve what must be done by the Oversoul. The Night Teacher and chela are as Mother/Father
|
|
and Daughter/Son. They share and create in the Night Power and Guild. How will you know
|
|
though who your Night Teacher is?
|
|
|
|
There are many ways in which this may come about. You may meet Her/Him in your dreams,
|
|
or more rarely, S/he may come to you in your waking hours. For many of you, you will just
|
|
know through your sixth sense. You will come to know intuitively who your Night Teacher is.
|
|
I will go into greater depth about the Night Teachers in the later part of this book. Do not be
|
|
worried or concerned about who the Night Teacher is in your life. S/he will choose you and
|
|
guide you and you should feel secure in this matter. S/he will reveal Her/Himself to you in
|
|
Her/His own time. At this point you are now progressing upon the Night Road.
|
|
|
|
Your first subject area to master in Night Magick will be Earth Magick. Not only will you
|
|
learn a great deal about the Earth and its Magickal Energies and Power but you will also be
|
|
altering physically and magickally. When you have achieved sufficient growth and mastery in
|
|
this area of Earth Magick you will be ready for the second landmark. If you looked at the last
|
|
landmark as the birth of the Oversoul in the your world, as your becoming the Magickal Child,
|
|
then this is "you the Oversoul" as a teenager. Here you have been transformed from the Earth
|
|
Apprentice to the Water Apprentice.
|
|
|
|
You will begin your study of Water Magick. This is the area of Night Magick related to the
|
|
emotions and astral world.
|
|
As a Water Apprentice, you will experience an ever greater increase of the Power of the Night
|
|
Soul. You will undergo increased emotional development. You will be given experiences that
|
|
will strengthen that emotional development. As a Water Apprentice, you will gain the ability
|
|
to know Truth in all Its forms and use that in your everyday world. You will also begin to learn
|
|
control over your emotions. The Night Magician needs emotional control in order to wield
|
|
Night Magick effectively. The power you will be able to wield without emotional control could
|
|
do incredible damage which you may later regret. The Night Magician must be master of
|
|
her/his emotions not the other way around. One point I should cover is that concerning the
|
|
aura.
|
|
Until I go into more detail about it later, accept for now, that there is an energy that completely
|
|
surrounds your body and extends beyond it about one to three feet. This energy field is called
|
|
an aura. The aura reflects emotions and thoughts in people. The aura is made up of swirling
|
|
energy currents and through magickal sight the aura can be seen as colors. All of this you will
|
|
cover in greater depth in later topics. In the average person, the colors that comprise the aura
|
|
are various and many. In the Earth Apprentice, the color that is predominate in the aura is
|
|
green. In the Water Apprentice, the aura will be of a light blue. This is another indicator of
|
|
when you have been accepted on the road. The aura, as an indicator, will help you further in
|
|
identification of the next landmark. You have seen the things that you must accomplish, or be
|
|
in the process of accomplishing, in order to achieve the next landmark. You have studied
|
|
Water Magick and developed and strengthened your emotional stature. When you have
|
|
traveled far enough on the Night Road another landmark appears before you. You are about to
|
|
undergo another transformation and become the Air Apprentice.
|
|
|
|
Here you have entered the "Oversoul as a very young adult" stage. The emphasis as an Air
|
|
Apprentice is upon mastering Air Magick or Magick of the Mind. You will be studying Air
|
|
Magick and undergo mental training. You will be developing what in Air Magick is known as
|
|
the Mental Body. Your studies in Night Magick will help develop the Mental Body. During this
|
|
phase of life you may also attend some advance education or training in the world. The mind
|
|
is a powerful instrument and its training is critical in Night Magick. You will be merging your
|
|
mind with the Higher Mind of the Oversoul. This will lead you to the last part of your journey
|
|
to becoming a Night Magician. The last landmark is ahead and you find yourself traveling
|
|
through Fire.
|
|
|
|
Here you are the young adult Oversoul. You are the Fire Apprentice. Your studies are of Fire
|
|
Magick. Fire Magick is the Realm of the Oversoul. It is the studies of the Higher Mind and
|
|
Causal Body. You now are learning and using the Night Powers of the Oversoul. The power
|
|
that flows through your life will be like nothing you have so far experienced. This is the time
|
|
when you will be reaching adulthood in the Oversoul. You will be achieving oneness with the
|
|
Oversoul and there will no longer be a you and the Oversoul. You are about to become a true
|
|
channel through which the Night Power will flow without impediment. To experience the
|
|
Night Realm of Fire is to know life without time or space. It is being everywhere and every
|
|
time. It is knowing and seeing all that has ever been, is, and will be: and as the Silent Watcher
|
|
and Observer seeing it all unfold. It is like standing amongst the sea of stars and knowing that
|
|
this is all that you are. It is feeling and being a part of unlimited darkness and absolute love.
|
|
This is perhaps the longest part of the journey. There is much to study, experience, and develop
|
|
into. But finally like all journeys, this one comes to an end. And at the end of the Night Road,
|
|
you are no longer an Apprentice but a Night Magician.
|
|
|
|
You and the Oversoul are One. You are the mature, adult Oversoul on Earth. Words only tend to
|
|
limit the experience of this achievement. The Night Power that you now feel is so great that
|
|
you have trouble controlling it as it surges through your material being. This experience can
|
|
never be adequately described by words but must be lived to be known. This is the point which
|
|
hails the complete union of the Higher and lower selves. The Oversoul and you are now One to
|
|
the greatest possible extent. The Causal body is now shared as One by the Oversoul and you. A
|
|
person with magickal sight of sufficient advancement will see a fully developed Causal Body
|
|
with the full and active Presence of the Oversoul within it. The aura will glow with an intense
|
|
deep amethyst/silver glow. You and the Oversoul share Its Powers and capabilities jointly.
|
|
You are One and Inseparable in Consciousness and Action with the Oversoul. You have
|
|
experienced everything that you must in life. You are now free of Karma. This is the last
|
|
material vehicle you will have to express through on Earth. You are the master of the lower
|
|
worlds. You know the cycles of birth and rebirth and know the happiness at having completed
|
|
the need to ever undergo the cycle again. You are free from life that ends in death. You have
|
|
become all knowledge, power, wisdom, and control of the Oversoul. Is your journey really
|
|
over?
|
|
|
|
No, not really. There will always be a perfecting process going on. There will always be new
|
|
heights to climb and greater understanding to be achieved. What is included in this book as
|
|
Night Magick is really only the "tip of the iceberg". But you will always enjoy your continued
|
|
travels and adventures on the Night Road. There will always be new things to discover. There
|
|
will always be new adventures and excitement on the Night Road. I have done my best to guide
|
|
you this far on the Night Road.
|
|
|
|
I want you to understand that this map is not set in concrete. The general course has been laid
|
|
out for you but the time you take to travel on the road and the tests and experiences you will
|
|
undergo are known only to the Oversoul. Sometimes you may detour slightly into another
|
|
area of magick and that's ok as long as it is the Will of the Oversoul. I would like now to help
|
|
you understand the Consciousness of the Oversoul. I call it Night Consciousness and it is what
|
|
you will ultimately achieve.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. Night Consciousness
|
|
|
|
There are countless numbers of Souls in creation. The Soul, that is your Oversoul, is unique
|
|
throughout the Omniverse. The consciousness of the Oversoul is separated from the
|
|
consciousness of the human being. It is possible for the two consciousness to join. This union
|
|
of consciousness I refer to as Night Consciousness. I am going to explore with you the inner
|
|
depths of Night Consciousness. You will discover things that you will have to do in order to
|
|
attain it. You will learn to live and practice it and the changes that will take place within you
|
|
as you start to acquire it. First though, we are going to examine, in greater detail, exactly what
|
|
Night Consciousness is.
|
|
|
|
Night Consciousness, in humankind, is a state of causal, mental, emotional, and physical
|
|
being. It is becoming the Oversoul in each of these states of being. It is reaching the greatest
|
|
possible state of perfection while here on Earth. The Causal body is to the Overself what the
|
|
physical/etheric body is to humankind. Its lowest vibrational body.
|
|
|
|
The Causal Body is the storehouse for the experiences of countless lifetimes in incarnation.
|
|
The Overself experiences life from its dimension through the Causal Body just as we experience
|
|
physical life through the physical body. When you have achieved Night Consciousness you
|
|
will be able to consciously use the Causal Body. You will be able to directly tap into awareness
|
|
of the Oversoul. This will directly effect your mental being.
|
|
|
|
Mentally, you must achieve all that the Oversoul is. It is your mental development and
|
|
attitude which will carry you into this Magickal Consciousness. When you have mentally set
|
|
your sights upon your goal and give it all that you possible have, then you will bring it into
|
|
manifestation within you. Night Consciousness is mentally being aware of all knowledge and
|
|
wisdom of the Oversoul. You will know, whatever it is that you must know by simply tapping
|
|
into it. You will have supreme wisdom for all situations knowing just what and how to do it.
|
|
You may have never studied the subject before but the knowledge will be there when you need it.
|
|
You will have tremendous willpower and concentration. This is Night Consciousness in
|
|
humankind. Night Consciousness is more then just a mental state. It is also your emotional
|
|
state of being.
|
|
|
|
It fills your world of feeling and changes it to perfection. It is having perfect understanding of
|
|
all situations. It is the giving of perfect, absolute love. This is love beyond the human state
|
|
that enters you into the absolute state of being. More on this in a later topic. The emotional
|
|
state in Night Consciousness is one of silence and profound solitude. It is a high state of
|
|
reflection and receptivity. It is also a state of aggression, boldness, and daring. Night
|
|
Consciousness is an emotional state of passion, courage and love of pleasure and ease.
|
|
|
|
This Consciousness even descends into the physical state of being. Your bodies become pure,
|
|
Night Energy through Night Consciousness. The body becomes the perfect channel through
|
|
which the Oversoul may flow out into the world. Night Consciousness is perfect control and
|
|
mastery of the physical being. This is Night Consciousness in the four aspects of humankind.
|
|
Night Consciousness is many things to humankind.
|
|
|
|
It is a state of bliss and peace that humankind has yet to know. It is a state of perfect
|
|
knowledge, wisdom, absolute love, understanding, innocence, happiness, joy, and freedom. It
|
|
is a state of awareness that words can not do justice to. Words only tend to diminish the real
|
|
understanding of the nature of Night Consciousness. Yet I have made the attempt to do so in
|
|
hopes that you would have a better understanding of what it is. Night Consciousness is the goal
|
|
of life on Earth. It is a goal worth giving your all in dedication, devotion, and determination to
|
|
in reaching it. Therefore, let's see exactly what you will have to do in reaching the Bliss of
|
|
Night Consciousness.
|
|
|
|
The things necessary to do, to reach Night Consciousness, may at first seem to overwhelm you.
|
|
There is a great deal to accomplish if you want to reach it. But you should not be scared by the
|
|
number of things you must accomplish, nor by the feeling that some of them seem impossible
|
|
for you to do. Nothing that is described here will be impossible for you to do if you will be
|
|
determined and persistent in your efforts. To begin you must master the physical body.
|
|
|
|
Its alright to indulge the physical body with food, pampering and passion. At the same time,
|
|
you must also balance this with physical training to maintain physical well-being. The body
|
|
is essential to every Night Magician for it is the channel through which Night Magick flows
|
|
and alters the world. Take care of it. Much of the knowledge you will gain will slowly alter the
|
|
human body changing its frequency into harmony with the Night Force. As the body changes
|
|
you will be able to increase the flow of the Night Force through you. Do everything in balance.
|
|
You must become masters of your emotional life.
|
|
|
|
From the onset of studying Night Magick you will experience emotions. It is alright to
|
|
experience and even use the emotions in Night Magick. But at all times, you must be in control
|
|
them. You must not be ruled by jealousy, lust, pride, or selfishness. You must control anger and
|
|
hatred. These things will still try to enter into your feelings but you will gain instant control
|
|
over them. You must remain in control under all conditions. No matter how disturbing the
|
|
current challenges in your life you must remain centered. You must also maintain a balanced
|
|
mind.
|
|
|
|
Your mind must always be centered in the silence of the Night. There is great power in the
|
|
silence of the Mind. Your mind should be fixed in self-discipline and strong-willed. Your
|
|
mind must be fixed in intellectual pursuit and critical thinking. You must maintain original
|
|
and independent thinking at all times. You will be inventive and versatile in your thinking.
|
|
Your mind set must be one of persistence, patience and persevering. Your mind will at times be
|
|
required to act in a reserved and cautious manner and at other times courageous, bold, and
|
|
gallant. Flexibility to meet the ever changing challenges is the key of Night Consciousness.
|
|
You must be temperate, wise, and poised in all things. These are just a few of the things
|
|
necessary for you to reach Night Consciousness.
|
|
|
|
They are not easy to master. Yet they must be mastered and put actively into your life. You
|
|
must live and practice Night Consciousness from the very beginning. This topic is placed early
|
|
in the book because it is the first thing which you will have to learn and begin practicing in
|
|
Night Magick. If you are to have any success at all in Night Magick, you will have to practice
|
|
and master this topic. In all other subjects you will study and master in this book, Night
|
|
Consciousness is of the most importance. It will bring you success in all other things you
|
|
attempt in Night Magick. How then do you practice and live Night Consciousness?
|
|
|
|
To begin, you must live the life of the Oversoul. You must be consciously aware of the Night
|
|
Power that flows through you from your Oversoul. Everywhere you go, you must constantly
|
|
remain in the Consciousness of the Oversoul. You must know that you are the Oversoul and
|
|
radiate Night Power. You must speak and act as the Oversoul. You must gain a very special
|
|
attitude towards life. You must learn to be in the world but not of it. You must not become lost
|
|
in the illusions of limitations. With the aid of Night Magick you will want for nothing but at
|
|
the same time you must never allow material possessions to possess you. Your magickal life
|
|
must be balanced by your practical life. You must give each part of your life equal time. Your
|
|
practical life should be filled with your magickal nature. You must learn to take each day, one
|
|
at a time. It is wrong to worry about tomorrow for in Night Consciousness your destiny of
|
|
success is assured. You must learn to obey your Oversoul as you would yourself for in reality
|
|
you and the Oversoul are One. All of your needs will be taken care of through Night
|
|
Consciousness. That doesn't mean you can just sit back and do nothing. You must give your
|
|
full effort to life but without worry or concern about your future. If you are following the Night
|
|
Road to Night Consciousness, then the outcome is clear. There is also one other thing that you
|
|
can do to enhance your attaining Night Consciousness until you become more adept in Night
|
|
Magick.
|
|
|
|
In your pursuit of Night Consciousness you will be greatly benefitted if you will get out into the
|
|
outdoors as much as possible. The beauty, peace, and power of nature will do much in restoring
|
|
and helping to maintain your Oversoul Nature. The Earth is a storehouse of Night Energy and
|
|
by your visits to those places where the Earth has been relatively untouched you will be able to
|
|
absorb the Night Energy. If you begin to practice what I just covered and continue to study and
|
|
practice Night Magick then you will eventually reach Night Consciousness. But only your
|
|
Oversoul knows all the things necessary for you to do to reach Night Consciousness and the
|
|
time required to do so. So you must be untiring in your efforts to reach it and know that it will
|
|
come. You must come to know that there is no separation in Consciousness between you and
|
|
your Oversoul. There are signs which will indicate to you that you are starting to approach
|
|
Night Consciousness.
|
|
|
|
There are changes that will take place within you all along the road to your final destination.
|
|
These changes will help reassure you that you are making progress. One of the first significant
|
|
changes in your life will be a new powerful inner vibration.
|
|
|
|
You will become charged with a new zest for life. The Oversoul Power will flow through you
|
|
and raise every cell in your body in a glorious fire. You will find you will need less sleep and
|
|
yet your energy will remain very high. You will find that your health will be greatly improved
|
|
and that your breathing will come much easier. Your body will become the Body of your
|
|
Oversoul. You will find yourselves growing more in the ways of the Silver Rule. You may do
|
|
anything that you want if you always maintain the Eternal Night Balance. You will begin to
|
|
hear an Inner Voice who will be your instructor and guardian. This Inner Voice will be that of
|
|
your Oversoul and/or Night Teacher who will guide you and care for you. This will cause you to
|
|
develop flashes of intuition. These brief moments of insight should be carefully listened to
|
|
and followed. If you do, then the help will continue to come to you. You will find that your
|
|
knowledge seems to increase within you. You will gain an understanding of things that you
|
|
never seemed to understand before. You will instinctively seem to know what to do about a
|
|
particular problem. For example, if your car breaks down you will know almost immediately
|
|
what is wrong with it and if possible, how to repair it. You will also come to know Truth from
|
|
untruth. It doesn't matter whether that source originates from a person, reading material, or
|
|
whatever, you will know whether what is said is True or not. Nothing will be able to hide from
|
|
your inner knowing and vision. This is also about the time when your lower psychic abilities
|
|
and faculties start to open up. You will learn a great deal about them later in the book. They
|
|
will give you abilities and powers beyond that of other people. Therefore you must be careful in
|
|
using them such that the Eternal Night Balance is always maintained. Do not worry about
|
|
these centers for now in a later topic you will be given what you need to maintain control. You
|
|
will feel a greater need for solitude and a time away from people. There are more indications of
|
|
approaching Night Consciousness and you will learn more about them as you continue your
|
|
studies of Night Magick. Remember, Night Consciousness is a physical, emotional, mental,
|
|
and causal development.
|
|
You know some of the things to concentrate on to help develop this consciousness. As I just
|
|
said you will learn more of the essentials to help develop this consciousness as you learn Night
|
|
Magick. You have also learned some of the indicators of your developing Night Consciousness
|
|
and when you finally reach it you will know it. What is required is effort, dedication,
|
|
persistence, self-discipline and study. With all this, you will achieve Night Consciousness.
|
|
Combined with Night Magick there won't be a thing you can't achieve. Your imagination and
|
|
dreams are the only limits in Night Magick. From this point in your study of Night Magick, I
|
|
would like to go over the principles upon which a Night Magician's life is based.

|
BEGINNING NIGHT MAGICK
|
|
|
|
8. Standards and Principles of Practicing Night Magick
|
|
|
|
You are about to embark on the Night Road of learning Night Magick and achieving Night
|
|
Consciousness. There are certain standards and practices which you must include in your life
|
|
while on the Road. I have covered a few of them already but I will go into greater depth over
|
|
some of them and cover some additional standards and principles to insure your success.
|
|
|
|
The Silver Rule (silver being a precious metal to the Night Force) is "you may do anything that
|
|
you want if you always maintain the Eternal Night Balance". The Eternal Night Balance is a
|
|
fundamental law of the Night Force. Balance in the Omniverse is a vital factor to order within
|
|
the Eternal Night. For everything you take from the Eternal Night you must give back to the
|
|
Eternal Night in equal measure. This does not mean of course that if through Night Magick,
|
|
using the energy of the Night Force, you acquire wealth that you must give money back to the
|
|
Night Force. It means that the amount of energy used to accomplish something must be
|
|
returned in full. This keeping of the Eternal Night Balance is an intuitive matter that is easy
|
|
to maintain when working within Night Consciousness. Therefore, before using Night Magick
|
|
to accomplish any event, always work within the consciousness of the Oversoul to be able to
|
|
maintain the Balance. There also follows another major principle within which you must
|
|
practice Night Magick. This is the "Law of Night Magick".
|
|
|
|
The Law of Night Magick is "there is nothing impossible when you are One with the Night
|
|
Force". I mean absolutely nothing. Always remember this fundamental law and believe it with
|
|
all your might. Remember that everything you do in life is Night Magick. It should be done in
|
|
Night Consciousness. Your whole life is now an expression of Night Magick and
|
|
Consciousness. There is nothing you cannot do. I'd like to turn for the moment to the
|
|
principles governing the Night Magician and the world as a whole.
|
|
|
|
You will find the world to be rather hostile to you concerning Night Magick. The religions of
|
|
the world are predominantly Yang. The majority of people have been conditioned to respond
|
|
in a Yang manner. Yang and Yin are opposite forces which do not mix well. From Night
|
|
Consciousness's view, each soul is responsible for its own world. Each soul determines much
|
|
of its life and the quality of that life before coming here. There is some predestination in all
|
|
lives yet there is much which is not. If individuals are poor and/or homeless then this gives
|
|
the Oversoul that experience. If souls are wealthy then that is another experience. This world
|
|
offers a myriad of different experiences for the Oversoul to live and experience. The Oversoul
|
|
lives many lives on Earth in order to get a well-rounded education. The Earth can be a very
|
|
rough school and souls here are experiencing in essence the first grade of life. When the
|
|
Oversoul has experienced all the lessons it deems necessary then It moves on to a new world
|
|
with more advanced lessons to be learned. This system is called reincarnation and is very
|
|
difficult for much of the world to except.
|
|
|
|
They would rather explain much of the world's problems and their own as the fault of someone
|
|
else. The Christians blame Satan for the ills of the world. There are many people who blame
|
|
their government. Others blame other people and their not caring about their fellow human.
|
|
The Night Magician blames no one.
|
|
|
|
The Night Magician knows that her/his beginnings on this planet are chosen from the other
|
|
side of life. S/he chooses her/his parents, race, sex, country, and many of the future events
|
|
before arriving to insure that the necessary lessons for this life are achieved. It may sound
|
|
terrible but a woman may actually chose to be raped in order to gain that experience and learn
|
|
from it. There are children born bad. They are souls who previously raped, murdered, robbed,
|
|
etc. and are returning little changed from their previous lives. Human souls are not born
|
|
innocent regardless of how innocent that baby looks in her/his cradle. They have lived before
|
|
on Earth and are returning little changed from when they last lived on Earth. They are a
|
|
bundle of possibilities and potentials and already have the beginnings of personality for this
|
|
life. You arrive the same way but as a Night Magician you must take charge of your life.
|
|
If you don't like it then change it. Use Night Magick to alter your world. Some parts of life are
|
|
predestined but many are not. The free times feel like your adrift on a sea without much
|
|
direction. This is the time to chose a new direction. You shouldn't get involved in changing all
|
|
the world's ills.
|
|
|
|
I believe someone said before that there will always be the poor and hungry. This is true
|
|
because this world requires those experiences for a certain group of souls. There will always be
|
|
crime because there will always be others who want what someone else has. There are
|
|
experiences of hardship, suffering, crime, poverty, hunger, divorce, physical and sexual abuse,
|
|
and a thousand more like it. There are experiences of wealth, fame, comfort, peace, happy
|
|
marriage, beautiful children, successful career, and a thousand more like it, too. The Oversoul
|
|
needs all these experience possibilities. The Night Magician chooses her/his experiences and
|
|
controls them through Night Magick. The Night Magician knows that the rest of the world
|
|
chooses their experiences too and lives them the best they can so that the Oversoul may gain
|
|
experience. Help the other soul when led by your Oversoul to do so. But have no guilt, nor
|
|
interfere in another soul's existence, when in Night Consciousness you know that what they
|
|
are experiencing is necessary. The practice of Night Magick requires that the affairs of your
|
|
world move with a steady, even pace.
|
|
|
|
There is no set limit as to how fast this pace may be. Setting limits upon pace is a relative
|
|
matter. But the pace must be even and steady. Do not become so embroiled in the everyday
|
|
routines of the hustling, bustling world that your world is conducted without Night Magick.
|
|
You must have a magickal attitude while in the world. You must keep your consciousness
|
|
raised above the mire and limitations of the world. You must approach life with passion and
|
|
zest.
|
|
|
|
In Night Consciousness, life is an adventure. Life is usually made up of one adventure after
|
|
another. Everything that has happened to you is a type of adventure that requires your use of
|
|
Night Magick to see it through. There are adventures which you may feel have had an unhappy
|
|
ending. Perhaps that ending did not have to occur with the use of Night Magick. If you are in
|
|
the Night Flow and something bad seems to have happened perhaps there was a reason. Use
|
|
Night Magick to find out. Use Night Magick to correct the situation. Do all this in Night
|
|
Consciousness. There will be times when you must approach life with courage, boldness, and
|
|
energy. There will be other times when you must use caution, prudence, and reflection.
|
|
Approach life from Night Consciousness and you will always know what to do. In Night
|
|
Consciousness, life is art.
|
|
|
|
You are the Night Magician. You are the artist. Create! Create any kind of life you want. Your
|
|
imagination is the limit. Fill your life with passion and love. Fill your life with honor,
|
|
dignity, and pride in the works you create. As the artist be inventive and imaginative in what
|
|
you create as your life. If you want wealth that is fine. If you want pleasure and ease that is
|
|
fine. Remember, Night Balance in what you create. The Night Magician operates from a point
|
|
of solitude.
|
|
|
|
The Night Magician is a solitary worker. This doesn't mean you won't have friends. You may
|
|
be a very active person socially with many friends. You can even practice Night Magick
|
|
collectively in groups. But ultimately, the Night Magician is a solitary worker. The Night
|
|
Magician must achieve mastery in Night Magick and Night Consciousness on her/his own. No
|
|
one else can do this for you. I can show you how to practice Night Magick and give you the keys
|
|
to obtaining Night Consciousness but I can't bestow upon you, mastery in Night Magick or
|
|
Night Consciousness. This you must do on your own with study, self- discipline, effort and
|
|
energy.
|
|
|
|
Night Magick is for those willing to pursue knowledge. It takes knowledge not faith to become
|
|
a Night Magician. It takes a lover of independent thinking. One who is free of convention and
|
|
is not a sheep in the world. It takes mental precision and intelligence to master Night Magick.
|
|
It will require will power and perseverance to overcome obstacles when they show up. You
|
|
must learn control of thoughts. You will hear this over and over, "thoughts are things". I don't
|
|
know who first said this but remember it. If you think thoughts of poverty then guess what,
|
|
you are poor. If you wish some one dead, even idly, then they may die. Through Night Magick,
|
|
thoughts become things with purpose. Learn control of your thoughts from the onset.
|
|
Emotions are also part of this.
|
|
|
|
Emotions add energy to thoughts. So you must also learn to control emotions. Emotions, like
|
|
thoughts, are energy and energy changes the world around you. I am not limiting any thoughts
|
|
or emotions from your world. You are free to think and feel anything you want. But
|
|
remember, thoughts and emotions will change the world around you and you are responsible
|
|
for those changes. Keep the Eternal Night Balance. Remember the Silver Rule and you will
|
|
have no problems. You need to take care of your physical body.
|
|
|
|
Night Magicians come in all shapes and sizes. There are no requirements in this area. What is
|
|
important is the physical body is the ultimate channel through which the Night Force flows
|
|
out into the world. You need to keep that channel as in tuned with the Night Force as possible.
|
|
You will learn techniques to do this shortly. Try to maintain oneness with your Oversoul and
|
|
the Night Force by keeping them in your thoughts and emotions at all time. This will help
|
|
maintain the balance. It is alright to smoke, eat, and provide the body with physical pleasure.
|
|
But balance is again important to your practicing Night Magick. You can't practice Night
|
|
Magick if you die of overeating, heart attack, or cancer. You will learn to control your
|
|
thoughts and emotions to help prevent these things. But if you go too far one way then all your
|
|
knowledge won't help if the body can't act as a channel for the Night Force. Balance pleasure
|
|
with physical exercise, breathing exercises with smoking, and right thoughts and emotions
|
|
that will control the stress and pressures in your life. I want to talk to you about drugs.
|
|
|
|
Their use is a very popular thing. In the right hands drugs can be very beneficial to human
|
|
health. Magickally, drugs have been used to induce certain mental and emotional states. In
|
|
the case of Night Magick, DON'T USE THEM! Drugs have more then a physical effect. They
|
|
alter the etheric, astral, and mental bodies. Drugs can do severe damage to these bodies that
|
|
may take many "lifetimes" to repair. I assure you that there is nothing drugs can do for you
|
|
that Night Magick can't do for you. There is no high or altered state that Night Magick can't
|
|
achieve for you.
|
|
Drugs can so alter your many bodies that by using Night Magick you will place yourself in
|
|
danger of losing your physical life. Moreover, you may lose your emotional and mental
|
|
stability that will require hospitalization. So far, I have not limited you in thought or action
|
|
in this book. But in this case, be warned. Do not use drugs. If you are using prescription drugs
|
|
under a physician's care and they severely alter your state of being then for that time don't
|
|
practice Night Magick. Wait till you no longer need the drugs. Under drugs I am also including
|
|
alcohol. On occasion you may feel like getting drunk. As you progress in Night Consciousness
|
|
you will eventually be able to drink and not get drunk. For most, that is a long time from now.
|
|
Drinking, to a lesser degree, alters the physical, etheric, astral, and mental bodies. The effects
|
|
are usually not as damaging unless you overdose on alcohol. Drinking in moderation is fine.
|
|
There is nothing wrong with an occasional drink. For some though, an occasional drink
|
|
becomes overuse of alcohol which ultimately will have the same effect as non-alcohol drugs.
|
|
Again, do not practice Night Magick while under the influence of alcohol regardless of the
|
|
amount of alcohol. It has the same possible effect as non-alcohol drugs. Let's go on to sex.
|
|
|
|
In today's world one usually talks about sex after talking about drugs. Sex is great. With Night
|
|
Magick, sex is going to become fantastic. The energy that is going to flow through you during
|
|
orgasm will give you the ultimate orgasms of your life. There are though some rules that apply
|
|
to this area.
|
|
|
|
It should be obvious that you must practice "safe sex". The male should use a condom and the
|
|
woman should be sure he uses it. No matter how close you are to your spouse or circle of friends
|
|
unless you're sure of their monogamy, men use condoms. Women should also use
|
|
contraceptives to prevent pregnancy. Men should learn how to put on condoms to insure they
|
|
don't break and never use petroleum products that will cause the latex to break. Women should
|
|
also know how to put a condom on a man to insure the man does it right. You may find that as
|
|
you increase in Night Consciousness and the flow of the Night Force increases that the only
|
|
time you will achieve those ultimate orgasms is when the partner is also practicing Night
|
|
Magick.
|
|
|
|
In Night Magick, concerning sex, it doesn't matter whether the couple is heterosexual, male-
|
|
male, female-female. It doesn't matter if the couple act alone. It doesn't matter if there is a
|
|
man and more then one woman or a woman and more then one man to the couple. It doesn't
|
|
matter if there is a group of couples of all polarities. It doesn't matter if the group is exclusively
|
|
men or women. What really makes the difference is if everyone is practicing Night Magick.
|
|
|
|
When all are practicing Night Magick then all are in the Night Flow. Everyone present will
|
|
have some increase of energy flowing through them. All will feel the bond of Night
|
|
Consciousness. In Night Magick there is no jealousy or possessiveness. In Night Magick there
|
|
is no Judeo-Christian, or Moslem, or Mormon, or any oppressive religious hang-ups about sex.
|
|
Each Night Magician is independent and free. Marriage under Night Magick is not one of
|
|
possession but of mutual cooperation and love.
|
|
|
|
Group marriage is a very real possibility under Night Magick because a Night Magician honors
|
|
independence, freedom, and equality in action among Night Magicians. There is no jealousy
|
|
or possessiveness among Night Magicians. Women and Men have equal rights in Night Magick
|
|
and Consciousness and in the world itself. But marriage between a Night Magician and non-
|
|
practicing human being rarely works out.
|
|
Ultimately, the Night Magician changes so much that the spouse no longer understands the
|
|
Night Magician. It is very rare to find a spouse who will understand the Night Magician and
|
|
their way of life. The marriage often ends in divorce. But it is better to divorce and remain
|
|
friends then to stay in a marriage which creates hostility and resentment. There is no balance
|
|
in such a marriage. Many are made to feel guilty if there are children involved and stay
|
|
married although there is hostility and resentment between them. I believe it is better for
|
|
everyone involved if the couple divorce, and even if they can't remain friends, to at least
|
|
remain cooperative and fair with each other concerning settlement and visitation. Balance
|
|
and harmony are important in a Night Magician's life. It is important to her/his success on
|
|
the Night Road. Also important to this success and of a more concrete nature are Magickal
|
|
Tools.
|
|
|
|
Down through the ages the Ancient Night Magicians have used many different types of tools
|
|
and implements in the practice of the Ancient Art. You too are going to need Magickal Tools
|
|
and in the next topic I will help you attain these tools.
|
|
|
|
9. A Night Magician's Tools and Weapons
|
|
|
|
These are the Night Tools a Night Magician will need to set the proper atmosphere and conduct
|
|
the basic rites. You will conduct these rites in the room you have designated as your Magician's
|
|
Study within the Magick Circle which you will define its area with the Night Cord.
|
|
|
|
This cord should be made of silk, cotton, or wool. The cord needs to be long enough so that
|
|
when it is laid down on the floor it will form a circle that contains the altar and yourself. If
|
|
there are more people then yourself conducting Night Magick or even possibly just observing
|
|
then you will need a long enough length to make a large enough circle to contain them. Within
|
|
the Night Circle you will build the Night Altar.
|
|
|
|
The Night Altar is symbolic for your physical being in which is focused the Night Spirit. You
|
|
will build an altar upon which you will focus your Powers of Eternal Darkness here on the
|
|
Earth plane. It is best to keep it simple. The basic structure can be a small table, box, or
|
|
anything which is sturdy. The altar should be about three feet wide by six feet long. The height
|
|
of the Night Altar is your decision. You can have one which is at waist height when you are
|
|
standing and one for when you are sitting. It is best to have both in your magickal inventory.
|
|
Place the Night Altar so that when you are standing or sitting behind it you are facing North.
|
|
Use a compass if necessary so that you can place it facing North. Then cover the Night Altar
|
|
with a cloth of your choice. If at all possible choose a black, red, or silver colored cloth. It is
|
|
best if the cloth has no distinctive pattern on the surface portion of the altar. This is your
|
|
Night Altar. You then must place upon it some very special articles.
|
|
|
|
Upon the altar and towards the back left side place a red candle and on the right side place a
|
|
black candle. On the left side and in front of the red candle place an incense holder and on the
|
|
right place your copy of Night Magick. You may also place any other small trinkets that help
|
|
build your feeling of Night Magick. Dragons, wizards, owls, and so on are fine. The Night Altar
|
|
is a sacred symbol before which you come to release Night Power. It is the physical symbol of
|
|
your body and heart and serves the same purpose: an anchor of the Night Force. You will need
|
|
a good supply of incense to fill the incense holder on your Night Altar. Through trial and error
|
|
you will find the right incense that fits your personal vibration. Each incense creates a
|
|
vibration in the air and as you grow more magickal, you will be ever more sensitive to its
|
|
vibration. Incense, which is of the stick variety and is thick in nature is good or you may have
|
|
a small charcoal brazier and powdered incense. On the Night Altar you will also need the
|
|
following things: a silver or crystal dish of sea salt; a vial of patchouli oil; a crystal bowl of
|
|
water; a silver or crystal chalice; and a silver or crystal bell. Now all these articles sit on a
|
|
Pentacle which is in the center of the Night Altar.
|
|
|
|
The Pentacle is a symbol of the Earth. It is a round plate made of wood and inscribed with
|
|
sacred symbols of Night Magick. The plate is thirteen inches in diameter. For an example of
|
|
such a plate and the layout of the articles see Figure 1. Then you will need a loose leaf notebook
|
|
which will become your Night Magician's Grimoire.
|
|
|
|
From the very beginning of Night Magick you will have practices, exercises, and rites to
|
|
perform and grow from. After each practice, exercise, or rite you should develop a grimoire
|
|
which records the date, time, and experiences felt in that session. Record in as much detail as
|
|
possible the successes and difficulties experienced. Keep a separate section for each type of
|
|
practice, exercise, and rite. This will allow you to see your progress in each and to help you see
|
|
where your difficulties are and how to possibly solve them. Be faithful and accurate in all
|
|
entries made and this record will help speed your progress. These are your Night Tools. Next
|
|
you will need your Night Weapons the first of which is a Night Amulet.
|
|
|
|
You need to make for yourself an amulet of black quartz crystal. This is a grounding and power
|
|
stone of Night Force. If you want, the necklace the stone hangs from can also be made from
|
|
quartz. I recommend though that the necklace be made of silver or amethyst. This will help
|
|
balance the power of the black quartz stone. The Night Amulet will help keep your physical
|
|
body in tune with the Night Force. You can tune into the Night Amulet and by holding it
|
|
increase your vibration in the Night Force. You will also need to make a Night Ring.
|
|
|
|
This should be a ring made of silver. You can set the Night Ring with any combination of
|
|
amethyst, black quartz, emerald, ruby, or diamond. A plain band of silver is fine. You may
|
|
later want to add Night Runes and Night Magick Symbols to the Night Ring as you learn them.
|
|
The Night Ring is a symbol of union with the Night Force. Next you need to make your Night
|
|
Wand.
|
|
|
|
The wand should be about thirteen inches long. It should be made of wood or silver. You may
|
|
encrust the wand with a combination of semi-precious and precious jewels. You may inscribe
|
|
the Night Wand with Night Runes and Symbols. You will find these in Appendix C. You may
|
|
place a crystal at either or both ends of the wand. The Night Wand is a focus of the Night
|
|
Energy that leaves your body to be transmitted to an object or place. You now need to make a
|
|
Night Staff.
|
|
|
|
The Night Staff is a symbol of Night Guidance, Power, and Authority. The Night Staff is to be
|
|
made of wood. The kind of wood is left up to you but it should be one which you are in harmony
|
|
with. The Night Staff should be approximately six feet high. You should leave the staff in its
|
|
natural state or paint it black, red or silver if you feel its necessary. As said earlier, the Night
|
|
Staff is a symbol of true Night Power and the Night Spirit's support to you. You will need a
|
|
Night Athame.
|
|
|
|
This is a small dagger whose blade and handle is about twelve inches in length. This is used for
|
|
ceremonial purposes only. Do not use this knife for cutting. You may want to place special
|
|
symbols on the handle and/or blade to add magickal importance to your athame. Make for
|
|
your Night Athame a scabbard which you can place on a belt on your person. You will also
|
|
need a Night Sword.
|
|
|
|
You can use any style of sword. Japanese samurai, scimitar, cavalry sword, or excalibur style
|
|
sword. You should also have a scabbard which you keep the sword in and attach it to your side
|
|
under your Night Cape. Of course, the next item you need is a Night Cape.
|
|
|
|
There is an easy way to make the Night Cape. Take enough cloth so that you have a square
|
|
which is twice your height long on each side. Now go to the center of the cloth, and using a
|
|
string that is half the length of one side of the cloth and on one end has a chalk stick attached,
|
|
draw a circle on the cloth that has the radius of half the length of one side of the cloth. Also
|
|
draw from the center a circle that has a radius of three inches. Now cut out the small circle
|
|
and the large circle. Then place a slit from one edge of the small circle you just cut down the
|
|
center of the cloth and through the edge. Sew ties into the material on the edge you just cut and
|
|
near the top of the cape. You will also need to make a hood that will cover your entire head and
|
|
will go over the head far enough to cover the face. You may attach the hood to the cape. See
|
|
figure ___. The Night Cape serves a valuable purpose.
|
|
|
|
The Night Cape acts as an insulator to the outside forces that surround you. It will help block
|
|
them out of your inner world and keep them from interfering in your magickal operations.
|
|
Keep the cape secured in a cloth bag and put it where no one else may touch or bother it. Use it
|
|
only in the practice of Night Magick. Next you will need to make the Night Plate.
|
|
|
|
Actually this is a breast plate. The basic shape and size of this plate is given in Figure __. You
|
|
may change the size and shape as fits you best. You may place upon the plate Night Symbols
|
|
and Runes. You may also want to place stones of black quartz, amethyst, emerald, ruby, or
|
|
diamond on it. The color of the plate should be black with runes and symbols in red and silver.
|
|
Finally you will need to make a Night Shield.
|
|
|
|
The Night Shield is patterned after the shields used by knights of chivalry. Some basic shapes
|
|
and sizes are given in Figure ___. Again the background should be black and symbols and
|
|
runes should be in red and silver. The runes and symbols you place on the shield as with the
|
|
Night Plate should help you increase your feeling of strength and courage in Night Magick.
|
|
These runes and symbols should help place you in Night Consciousness. The Night Magician's
|
|
Tools and Weapons are very valuable to you.
|
|
They provide for you a means to advance in Night Magick. They provide the proper
|
|
atmosphere in which to practice the lore of Night Magick. There are other devices that will be
|
|
needed as you progress in your studies. As a rule, each will be relatively simple to acquire.
|
|
They will be brought to your attention as you proceed. The Night Magician's Tools and
|
|
Weapons given here are those which you will need before you proceed further in Night Magick.
|
|
Once you have your tools and weapons made it is time to select your Night Name.
|
|
|
|
10. Your Magickal Night Name
|
|
|
|
The true name given to anything is very important. A true name contains the essence of that
|
|
entity. It describes the differences and qualities of that entity. To know the true name of a
|
|
thing is to imply acquisition and knowledge of that essence. To know the true name gives you
|
|
dominion over it. The name that you as a Night Magician will choose is of great importance.
|
|
|
|
You will select a Night Name which to you contains the very essence of your Inner Nature. This
|
|
name may be the same as a famous personage you wish to emulate or a famous saying or motto.
|
|
For example, you may choose a name such as Merlin, Saint Germain, Abra-Melin, Mithratar,
|
|
or any other name that strikes your imagination and heart. You may choose a name from a
|
|
saying or motto. A Night Name will help to build-up your Night Essence, your feeling of Night
|
|
Consciousness and will quicken your magickal vibration. This name should be given to no
|
|
one else to know. It is your own Magickal Name that when used will bring you to Night
|
|
Consciousness. Now, you must choose a second name.
|
|
|
|
This is the name that you will be known outwardly by to fellow Night Magicians. You should
|
|
pattern this name after something unlike your Night Name. This name will be used on all
|
|
correspondence with other Night Magicians and any published writings. The second name is
|
|
your public name and is used in such rites and exercises. Remember, to know the name of a
|
|
thing is to know its Eternal Essence and to have dominion over it.
|
|
|
|
In selecting a magickal name you are defining that Inner Essence. To tell another is to give
|
|
him access to your Inner Nature. He may reach you and make demands of you whenever he
|
|
chooses by knowing your inner name. Do not reveal it for any reason. You should always use
|
|
your second or outer name as Night Magicians. To do so will insure that you will never be
|
|
bothered here or hereafter. Both names are important and should be selected to help bring you
|
|
into your Night Consciousness. Your Night Name will bring you closer into the aura of Night
|
|
Magick. Having selected your Night Name you now must learn Magickal Protection in order to
|
|
conduct Night Magick safe from outside influences.
|
|
|
|
11. Night Pillar
|
|
|
|
What you are about to learn is perhaps the most valuable Night Tool you will ever acquire.
|
|
There are many forces in the world which will attempt to do you harm if you practice Night
|
|
Magick. By harm, I don't necessarily mean physical violence although that is possible. I am
|
|
talking about the threat of harm to your subtle bodies: Astral, Mental, and Causal bodies.
|
|
Harm to these bodies could cause serious emotional and mental sickness. There is also the
|
|
threat of attack to your Etheric which usually translates to physical harm. For Night
|
|
Magicians there is a serious threat of attack from Yang followers. This could be from so-
|
|
called White Magicians and their use of magick against you. It could come from Christians,
|
|
Jews, Muslims and so on. Attacks can come from collective emotional or mental energy meant
|
|
to harm a Night Magician. A group of Yang worshipers gathered together in prayer praying for
|
|
the demise of all Night Magicians everywhere could build up enough energy to harm the
|
|
unprotected Night Magician. As you grow more magickal you will become very sensitive to
|
|
subtle energies around you. Attacks could come from anyone who wishes you harm. You will
|
|
need protection. You will need to build the Night Pillar. The Night Pillar is not just for
|
|
protection.
|
|
|
|
The Night Pillar also acts as an invisible wall which will contain the energy you will be
|
|
creating through Night Magick. This will allow you to build-up the energy to a great intensity
|
|
before you release it to accomplish your will. This will increase the effectiveness of the
|
|
magickal rites you create. So how do you build the Night Pillar.
|
|
|
|
You begin by calming and clearing your mind of extraneous thoughts. Close your eyes and
|
|
visualize the Night Energy collecting around your form. See the Night Energy forming a pillar
|
|
of protective force that extends around you about six feet. See that energy flowing below your
|
|
feet and above your head. See yourself in a pillar of deep violet and emerald energies. See
|
|
yourself in a pillar of darkest night. Know that you cannot be harmed while contained in the
|
|
Night Pillar. Now say the following invocation:
|
|
|
|
"I am a Night Magician surrounded in a Pillar of Night Energy that cannot be penetrated. It
|
|
repels all energy that would harm me. It repels all thoughts and emotional energy of my
|
|
enemies. Through the Power of my Oversoul, I am protected in a Pillar of Night Energy and
|
|
cannot be harmed. May this Night Pillar remain around me at all times keeping me out of
|
|
harms way. So be it."
|
|
|
|
Say this invocation and visualize the Night Pillar around you until you can feel its protection.
|
|
This energy comes from the Oversoul within. As you begin the invocation the Oversoul extends
|
|
the Night Energy into your world through the silver cord. The silver cord is your life line to
|
|
your Oversoul and through it all energy passes to you which sustains your life on Earth. You
|
|
can invoke more of this energy and power into your life when you work in conscious union
|
|
with your Oversoul. There are many different kinds of energy which can be invoked into your
|
|
world through the Oversoul. The Night Energy of Protection is only one of them. You will
|
|
learn about many more types of energy you can invoke and use towards the end of the book.
|
|
What you want to remember about the Night Pillar is to use it often.
|
|
|
|
Always place the Night Pillar around you before you work Night Magick. Always place
|
|
yourself in the Night Pillar at the beginning of each day. The more you use it the stronger it
|
|
will become. The Pillar will protect you from all physical and psychic harm. You must learn
|
|
to consciously keep the Night Pillar around you all the time. You should always remain in the
|
|
Night Pillar. Everything that you practice in the lore of Night Magick should begin with the
|
|
Night Pillar. You must always do this whether it's stated so or not. Through the Night Pillar
|
|
you will safely live and learn in Night Magick. You now have built a strong foundation upon
|
|
which to live and practice Night Magick. You have learned what it is to be a Night Magician
|
|
and to practice the lore of Night Magick. If you are ready to begin using Night Magick then let's
|
|
consecrate your Night Study and Tools.
|
|
|
|
12. Invocation to Night Magick
|
|
|
|
This is a most sacred time in your life for it marks the beginning of your entry into Night
|
|
Magick. You are going to perform a very sacred rite to mark your entry. You will, in this
|
|
solemn rite, dedicate your physical, emotional, mental, and magickal energies to the practice
|
|
of Night Magick. This rite is meant to convey to you the seriousness and importance with
|
|
which you should view Night Magick. In this rite, you will learn the basics which will begin
|
|
every ritual you will learn. In this rite, you will invoke the Night Energy into your Night Tools
|
|
and Weapons and make them yours and yours alone. The Night Tools and Weapons will then
|
|
be sacred and contain the Power of the Night. To begin, you must have your Magician's Study
|
|
and Night Altar prepared.
|
|
|
|
To do this, have all your Night Tools and Weapons laid out on the Night Altar. Have the cord
|
|
laid on the floor in a circle around the Night Altar. On the Night Altar you should now light
|
|
the candles and the incense. Your bowl should be full of water and your chalice should contain
|
|
wine or grape juice. Be sure and turn off the phones and lock the doors so you won't be
|
|
disturbed. Once you have accomplished this be sure and have your Night Name selected. It is
|
|
this name you will use in the performance of this rite. Now for the actual ritual.
|
|
|
|
You will begin by invoking the Night Pillar. Standing before your Night Altar and with your
|
|
eyes closed see the Protective Night Energy pouring down from the Oversoul above you, through
|
|
your head, on into your heart, and out into the study completely surrounding and
|
|
interpenetrating the room. See the Light continuing through you and on into the Earth. At
|
|
this point you should repeat the Night Pillar Invocation given earlier. Feel the Night Energy
|
|
concentrate deeply within the circle boundary outlined by the cord.
|
|
|
|
Now pick up the bell and ring it six times in each major direction, that is North, South, East
|
|
and West. Then repeat the following invocation, "I who am (give your Night Name) summon
|
|
the Presence of all Deities in the Night Force to attend my ritual of Eternal Night. To witness
|
|
my consecration of my Night Tools in the service of the Eternal Darkness. We now stand in the
|
|
Eternal Night beyond time and space. Come and witness my Ritual of the Night". After this,
|
|
pick up the salt container, and repeat the following: "By my sacred name, (give your Night
|
|
Name), through the Presence of my Oversoul and the Eternal Earth Deities, I invoke the Earth
|
|
Night Power into this container of salt and now place the salt upon the earth to mark the
|
|
boundary of my sacred circle." Visualize the Earth Deities filling the vessel with their power.
|
|
Pinch a little salt lightly between your fingers dropping it on the floor over the cord going
|
|
completely around the circle. BE CAREFUL NOT TO STEP OUTSIDE THE CIRCLE FOR THE
|
|
REMAINDER OF THE RITUAL. Place the salt container back on the Night Altar and pick up
|
|
the crystal bowl of water. Repeat the following: "May the Presence of my Oversoul and the
|
|
Eternal Water Deities fill this water and container and endow it with the Water Night Power."
|
|
Visualize the Water Deities of the Earth filling the vessel with the power. With your left hand
|
|
dip it into the water and sprinkle lightly the boundary you have already marked with the salt.
|
|
Place the water bowl back on the altar and pick up the incense burner.
|
|
|
|
Repeat the following: "Let the Presence of the Four Winds of the Earth enter into the incense
|
|
burner filling it with Air Night Power". Now face each direction, rotating counterclockwise,
|
|
and see the Presence of each Wind Deity enter into the incense burner. Then circle four times
|
|
in a counterclockwise manner around and within the Magick Circle. Place the incense burner
|
|
back on the Night Altar and pick up the candle.
|
|
|
|
Repeat the following: "May the Presence of my Oversoul and the Fire Deities of the Earth place
|
|
their sacred flame here within my candles and upon my Night Altar." See the Fire Deities
|
|
come and dance around the flames and upon your altar. Place the candle back where it came
|
|
from and pick up the chalice of wine or juice.
|
|
|
|
Repeat the following: "Let the Presence of my Oversoul and the Eternal Darkness enter into the
|
|
liquid and fill it with the Power of the Eternal Night. May this elixir give me strength, healing,
|
|
and courage each day of my life." Feel the Power flow through you and into the chalice. See the
|
|
energy collect and concentrate till the chalice glows with Night Energy. Then drink the liquid
|
|
and your ready to consecrate the other Night Tools.
|
|
|
|
You will begin with the oil so pick it up and repeat the following: "Let this oil be made sacred
|
|
and filled with the Power of the Night. Let the Presence of the Oversoul and Night Spirit touch
|
|
it with their might, courage, solitude, and darkness. For the oil is now sacred and made for
|
|
anointing the Weapons of a Night Magician." Take a small amount of oil and touch the
|
|
Pentacle and state, "May the Night Force flow into this Pentacle and bless all things laid on it".
|
|
Now it is time to anoint each weapon in your sacred arsenal.
|
|
|
|
You will pick up each Night Weapon, one at a time, and while placing a small amount of oil on
|
|
each tool, repeat the following: "Through the Presence of my Oversoul and the Eternal
|
|
Darkness, I (Night Name), consecrate this Night Weapon in the service of Night Magick and the
|
|
Eternal Night." Do this with the Night Amulet, Ring, Wand, Staff, Grimoire, Athame, Sword,
|
|
Plate, Shield, and Cape. Now put the Night Amulet, Ring, Plate, Athame and Sword on your
|
|
body. Place the Grimoire in the front center edge of your Night Altar. Put on the Night Cape.
|
|
Place the Night Shield over your left forearm and in the left hand hold the Night Wand and in
|
|
the right hold the Night Staff and state the following: "I,(give your Night Name), commit my all
|
|
to the Oversoul and the Night Spirit within, and to the dedication of my Magickal Energies to
|
|
the practice of Night Magick. I dedicate myself to the Oversoul within and to my union with it
|
|
in Night Consciousness. May these Night Tools and Weapons serve me ever in this cause. So be
|
|
it." Now face each direction and repeat the following: "Thank you Night Deities for your
|
|
attendance at this sacred Night Rite. May we ever serve the Eternal Powers of Darkness here
|
|
on Earth and the Omniverse forever. So be it." And that's it, you have finished your first night
|
|
rite and all your Night Tools and Weapons are consecrated in Night Magick. At this point stop
|
|
and re-enforce your Night Pillar and then take off all your Night Weapons and place them back
|
|
upon the Night Altar. Leave the cord in place on the floor.
|
|
|
|
Each ritual will begin by your stepping into the Night Circle and putting on your Night
|
|
Weapons and Cape. It is alright if you wear your Night Amulet and Ring outside the Circle.
|
|
After this place the Night Pillar around you. Do not leave the Circle until the end of the ritual
|
|
and be sure and re-enforce the Night Pillar around and through you before leaving the Night
|
|
Circle. Go through the actions of consecrating the Night Circle with earth, water, air, and fire
|
|
each time. Fill the chalice, say the invocation, and drink the wine each time. Then always
|
|
ring the bell and summon the Night Deities. These are the basic procedures you will begin each
|
|
ritual which takes place within the Night Circle. I hope you have had fun and are ready to
|
|
begin learning about the first realm you will pass through on the Night Road. Let's go then to
|
|
the Earth Realm.

CHAPTER IV
|
|
|
|
|
|
Earth Magick
|
|
|
|
13. The Earth Realm
|
|
|
|
Since time began there has been traditionally four elements which make up the world of the
|
|
Night Magician. These are the elements of Earth, Water, Air, and Fire. They are symbolic for
|
|
the basic four worlds of being: that of the physical(Earth), emotional(Water), mental(Air), and
|
|
causal(Fire). The Oversoul must express through each of these realms using the appropriate
|
|
vehicle or body and ultimately gain mastery over each of them. So, I have divided Night
|
|
Magick into four basic realms with knowledge, exercises, and rituals appropriate to each
|
|
realm. Ultimately, the Oversoul, through you, working in and mastering each realm will have
|
|
learned all that must be learned here upon Earth and return no more. The Earth Realm is your
|
|
beginning point in becoming a Night Magician. I want to take you back to the beginning of
|
|
time and the origin of the soul.
|
|
|
|
From an understanding of general cosmology, that is the origin of the Void,
|
|
Monad/Godsoul/Oversoul and the soul of humankind, then this will help you to see the whys
|
|
of a magickal evolution and the reasons for being on the Night Road that follows this magickal
|
|
evolution.
|
|
|
|
There is no beginning to the origin of the Void. The Void has always been, is now, and ever will
|
|
be. The Void is principle, unmanifest, and exists entirely in itself, from itself, and by itself.
|
|
The Void is the potential and unmanifest Source of all that exists. The Void is the Life present
|
|
in all things. It is omnipresent, omnipotent, and omniscient. From out of the Void, the
|
|
potential and unmanifest Source, comes the Ultimate Yin and Yang Creators. The Spirit of
|
|
the Spirits. The Ultimate Spirits are the first and only creations by the Void. The totality of
|
|
all that the Void can be is brought into being in the Ultimate Spirits. The Ultimate Spirits
|
|
derive all potential and essence from the Void, the potential and unmanifest. The Ultimate
|
|
Yin and Yang then created twin parallel matrixes and so it began. What is now referred to here
|
|
is also applicable for the Ultimate Yang.
|
|
|
|
The Ultimate Yin created beings like unto itself. Each of these Beings I will refer to as a
|
|
Monad. Each Monad was created in order to share in the joy of creation with the Ultimate
|
|
Yin. The Eternal Night gave to each Monad the potential of becoming all that It is. The Dark
|
|
Goddess-God gave to each Monad the essence and potential for expressing the Eternal
|
|
Darkness. Each Monad evolves into the Oneness of the Eternal Night by actualizing its
|
|
Eternal Night's potential. Each Monad grows by bringing into manifestation the latent
|
|
abilities and powers placed within It by the Eternal Night. Like the Eternal Night, each Monad
|
|
is given the right of free will to determine how it will do this. The free will of each Monad
|
|
permits it to choose how it will create and what path of evolvement to follow. When the Monad
|
|
chooses to manifest its Abilities and Powers and to Create, the way of interest to you as a Night
|
|
Magician, is by its descent into matter.
|
|
|
|
The material universe is made up of an infinite number of vibrational energies. The very
|
|
highest of these energies is the substance upon which the Monad first creates. Through the
|
|
Creative Power of the Monad, acting on the highest vibrational matter, the Monad first takes
|
|
on form. This is not form as you understand form but something that is beyond your
|
|
understanding. When the Monad first takes on form, it becomes two Godsouls.
|
|
|
|
The two Godsouls are true twin souls. They are the magickal twins who shall evolve and create
|
|
together by the Will and Power of the Monad. They each have free will and free choice of their
|
|
own. Yet all creation that proceeds from them is related. All fragments of their divine spirit
|
|
which are sent forth to be ensouled in the world of spirit and matter are thus related and united
|
|
in purpose. In all they do the twin souls are united through the Will of the Monad. One
|
|
Godsoul is predominately Yin with Yang and the other is totally Yin. This is a simplification
|
|
of the energy systems but basically these twin Godsouls now have the creative energies ready to
|
|
continue downward into material creation. Each Godsoul has the full potential and essence of
|
|
the Monad and also the free will to use them. Because of the power and high vibrational
|
|
energies of the Godsoul it cannot continue its direct descent into matter, thus it created an
|
|
extension of itself into the lower worlds. This level of presence I have called the Oversoul. The
|
|
Oversoul is a being of lower vibrational levels. It is very active on its levels in learning and
|
|
creating and using the potential given to it by the Godsoul. Ultimately, the Oversoul must
|
|
learn to create on the lowest of levels and thus it sends a part of itself into the lowest worlds of
|
|
form and so is born the soul.
|
|
|
|
The soul is the instrument through which the Oversoul learns about the lowest worlds of
|
|
creation. The human soul will return to the Earth many times for the human body does not
|
|
last long. The human soul will return to experience many different lives in order that it might
|
|
gain all the experience the Earth has to teach it. Once the human soul has gained all the
|
|
experience the Oversoul needs then the human soul will move on to different worlds and
|
|
dimensions in order to gain new experience. The soul gets its life force and direction from the
|
|
Oversoul. This Power and Will flows through what is called the Silver Cord. This Cord is made
|
|
up of high energy particles through which flows energy of varying frequencies. The soul
|
|
operates through a mental, emotional or astral, etheric, and physical body. On Earth this is
|
|
the human body.
|
|
|
|
The Soul (Oversoul and soul) is very delicate and composed of very high vibrational energies.
|
|
If the Soul is to grow, develop, and evolve in material creation then it has to have a material
|
|
vehicle through which to work. You could compare this to a person who wants to go into outer
|
|
space.
|
|
|
|
Because outer space is very cold, lacks oxygen, and is a vacuum the human body could never
|
|
withstand going out into space without being protected from it. So a special suit is designed
|
|
which is heated, pressurized, and contains oxygen with which to breathe. It also contains
|
|
many devices and sensors to work in space and monitor the surroundings. In order to protect
|
|
the delicate Soul from the dense material surroundings, and for it to be able to work in and
|
|
monitor its surroundings a special suit was devised. This is called the physical body.
|
|
|
|
The physical body is composed of the lowest and densest matter. It is designed to respond and
|
|
interact with its material surroundings. There are the five senses: sight, touch, smell, taste,
|
|
and hearing; and their respective organs: eyes, skin, nose, mouth, and ears. These allow the
|
|
soul to react to the world around it. The hands, arms, legs, feet, and joints allow the soul to
|
|
work with its surroundings with great dexterity and ability. The physical body is an excellent
|
|
tool through which the soul to operate when it is properly attuned and under the control of the
|
|
Oversoul. Unfortunately, for the majority of humankind this is not the case.
|
|
|
|
Too many human beings are the human body instead of the soul and Oversoul. The
|
|
Oversoul/soul is not in charge but it is the human body which is in charge. The human body is
|
|
basically undisciplined and unruly. Whatever the human body wants it gets and half the time
|
|
it doesn't really want what it thinks it wants. Without the control of the Oversoul/soul, the
|
|
body is helpless before the elements of life. The human body has no control over the world
|
|
around it. Because of this current state, the Oversoul/soul does not pay attention to the human
|
|
body. It is much like a car out of control. If you were the driver of a car that refused to go where
|
|
you wanted it to go and was always headed for destinations unwanted and going past places
|
|
uncared about, you would get out and just let it go till it crashed and burned. This is pretty
|
|
much what the Oversoul/soul does concerning the human body. But there is a way to change
|
|
this. You must identify, tune into, and become the Oversoul/soul.
|
|
|
|
You must gain mastery over the physical body. You are the Oversoul/soul and not the physical
|
|
body. You must remember that you are eternal and only working through the physical body. It
|
|
is your tool through which to work and experience the material world around you. You cannot
|
|
allow the passions and desires of the body to rule you. You must develop control over the body.
|
|
Properly channeled and controlled these forces can be used to your advantage instead of your
|
|
detriment. You will learn through Night Magick how to develop this control and mastery. The
|
|
Night Magician must attain through discipline, diet, exercise, and ritual mastery over her/his
|
|
body and the world around her/him. But in all trials that occur in your life be easy on yourself.
|
|
You will fail many times, but get up, dust off your knees, and go on vowing to try and do better.
|
|
Never give up for all things are possible to those who follow the Night Magician's life. "The
|
|
world is but a stage and we are the actors upon it,'' thus it was said by Shakespeare. This world
|
|
is but an illusion and your attitude should be that of "in it but not of it". You must never
|
|
become lost in the illusion of the game played by the majority of humankind. You must
|
|
become the Master of Illusion, the Night Magician. Let me discuss with you for a moment the
|
|
Stage upon which we experience life.
|
|
|
|
After many millenniums of experience there is a Soul who is qualified to become a Planetary
|
|
Soul. The Planetary Soul is the Soul for every person upon that planet. Think of a pie sliced
|
|
into an incredible number of pieces of pie. The pie as a whole is the Planetary Soul and you are
|
|
one of those pieces of the pie. The Earth is the physical body of a very advanced Soul who I have
|
|
told you is the Ancient Dragon Tiamat. Many of humankind have named this Soul, Gaia/Pan.
|
|
This name representing the fe/male aspect of the Earth Soul. Every human being is a part of
|
|
the Soul of Earth. Moreover every part of our human body, that is causal, mental, emotional,
|
|
etheric and physical is directly effected by the Earth Soul. Our entire existence is constantly
|
|
effected by the Energies of this Being which plays upon our own energies. Just as you are
|
|
developing and evolving magickally so is Soul Earth. Soul Earth's evolution is far greater
|
|
then that of yours but all are aiming towards the One Goal; every greater unfoldment of Night
|
|
Consciousness. You must take care of the Earth Body.
|
|
|
|
It is your stage upon which you gain magickally and moreover it is the vehicle through which
|
|
Gaia/Pan gains magickally and has its physical being. If the body of Tiamat is killed then the
|
|
Soul will leave it just as if your body is killed your soul must leave it. If there is continued
|
|
pollution and destruction of planetary life and resources then soon Tiamat will have to rid
|
|
itself of the cancer that is causing physical destruction. I believe all of humankind should
|
|
take this as a warning. It has happened before and it will happen again, Tiamat will not allow
|
|
the death of its physical body before its proper time. It will do what is necessary to stop the
|
|
destruction of its body just as you would. There is also another type of destruction happening
|
|
on Earth and that is with alien races from the Yang matrix.
|
|
|
|
I know this subject may be tough for you to deal with but consider it as you have everything
|
|
else, with an open mind.
|
|
This planet is a battlefield between Yang races and the Night Soul of this world, Tiamat. The
|
|
opening poem was not just a piece of fiction. There are still Yang races who desire to possess
|
|
the Earth for its wealth and who enjoy dominion over human beings. There are other Yang
|
|
races who plan to slowly convert the Yin souls of this world into Yang souls. To change the
|
|
basic polarity of all souls on this world. They believe that their polarity is the only
|
|
appropriate polarity and would see the destruction of the Yin matrix of life. What evidence is
|
|
there of this?
|
|
|
|
I can point out to you books on the market today that deal with alien visitation and
|
|
kidnapping in which there are biological experiments going on to create a human/alien yang
|
|
body in which they plan on placing Earth yin souls in order to ultimately change the polarity
|
|
of the souls. Turning back to the pie example given earlier, think of what happens to the pie if
|
|
pieces of it are removed never to be returned. I believe Soul Death is an appropriate term. You
|
|
can look at the Yang religions that were introduced by the so-called gods or god and see that
|
|
through their magickal practices they slowly change a soul's vibration from Yin to Yang.
|
|
These of course are the religions that have no tolerance for other religions and have gone to
|
|
great lengths to force conversion on others such as Christianity. There is also my own
|
|
personal experience. I will not go further in discussing my personal experience except to say it
|
|
wasn't pleasant and could have led to my ultimate destruction. What can you do?
|
|
|
|
You will learn many things to do in Night Magick. You will learn to place your body in
|
|
attunement with the Yin Force of this planet. You are learning to unite with the consciousness
|
|
of the Oversoul which is one in consciousness with the Planetary Oversoul. If enough human
|
|
souls accomplish this the Night Force will become too strong for the Yang races to deal with.
|
|
You have learned to take care of the Earth. Go out and help environmentalists who promote
|
|
care of the planet. When you feel physically well the rest of you responds in kind and so it is
|
|
with the Earth. If the Earth Body is strong and healthy the Earth Soul will be strong and its
|
|
aura will repel the alien races. In your meditations and visualizations, see the Earth and Its
|
|
Soul strong in the Night Force. Use your Night Pillar and extend its protection around and
|
|
through the Earth. Use your Night Pillar around every human body and soul to keep them
|
|
strong in the Night Force. If enough of humankind joins in there will be no destruction of the
|
|
Yin life force. If you think that aliens are fiction, DON'T. If you practice Night Magick you will
|
|
draw their attention to you. I have had personal experience with aliens and my battle with
|
|
them continues. I advise you strongly to wear your Night Amulet and Ring at all times and
|
|
keep your Night Pillar strong through constant use. I hope you will take my advice and not
|
|
have to learn through experience.
|
|
|
|
This is the Earth Realm where you have to live and practice Night Magick. In Earth Magick, I
|
|
will introduce knowledge, rites, and exercises which will help to improve and refine your
|
|
physical body. To make your body a more sensitive instrument to the Night forces around
|
|
you. The more refined the instrument the greater the Night Power that will be able to be
|
|
expressed through it. These exercises will not only benefit the physical but overlap into the
|
|
development of the higher vehicles too. Earth Magick will give you ultimate control over your
|
|
physical body and the world around you. So study with all your heart, persevere, practice,
|
|
have courage and patience and you will attain the Earth. Your first subject for study and
|
|
practice in the Earth Realm is Night Breathing.
|
|
|
|
14. Night Breathing
|
|
|
|
Breathing is an important aspect in life and Night Magick. Breathing is essential to life and
|
|
your well-being. That may seem like an obvious statement since without air you could not
|
|
live, but actually breathing means more then just taking in air to sustain life. As you will see,
|
|
breathing correctly and with the knowledge of what it can do for you will propel you far down
|
|
the magickal road. Incorrect breathing leads to many problems in your life.
|
|
|
|
Does it seem that you run out of energy well before the day is done? Are you often nervous and
|
|
irritable for no real apparent reason? Through correct breathing you can eliminate these
|
|
problems from your life. You will be able to go through each day with boundless energy.
|
|
Tension, irritability, and nervousness will disappear from your life. What is wrong with the
|
|
way you breathe?
|
|
|
|
Stop right now and notice how you are breathing. Do you find that your breathing is shallow?
|
|
Almost everyone in the world is a lazy breather. Deep breathing is a simple thing to do but in
|
|
the beginning it will take some effort on your part for it to become a regular practice. Begin by
|
|
taking a slow, deep breath and as you inhale, not only expand your chest to hold more air but
|
|
force out your abdomen and feel that air going deep down into your lungs. When you have
|
|
inhaled as much air as you can, try to take in just a bit more air. Really fill up your lungs.
|
|
Now that you have inhaled as much air as possible, exhale very slowly and steadily. Bring
|
|
your expanded abdomen in and force out the air till you are completely empty. At no time
|
|
should you strain yourself in doing deep breathing. Even though you cannot go around in
|
|
public being very obvious about this exercise you should, no matter where you are, breathe as
|
|
deeply, slowly, and rhythmically as possible. You will do this consciously at first but soon
|
|
this will become a part of your life without thinking of it. Do this and you will have a vibrant,
|
|
youthful body. Why would an increase in air intake cause this increased vitality?
|
|
|
|
There is an active, vital, life force that energizes the world around you. In the Eastern
|
|
languages this essence is called Prana. This Force is active not only on the physical plane but
|
|
on all planes or dimensions of life. On the physical level, you breathe in the air which
|
|
contains one aspect of this Force and which then is transmitted throughout your body via the
|
|
nerve network. When you are feeling nervous, irritable, or tense, this can be due to a lack of
|
|
this vital Force. The Pranic Force is not just for the physical body.
|
|
|
|
There are many aspects of the Pranic or what is called in Earth Magick, Earth Force. To utilize
|
|
the Earth Force, you must learn to draw in this Energy within you. The technique outlined is
|
|
termed Night Breathing.
|
|
To begin with, retire to your Magician's Study and sit comfortable with spine erect in your
|
|
chair. For a few minutes practice deep breathing with your feet on the floor and touching. Your
|
|
hands should be resting in your lap, palms down at all times. The indrawing of the Earth
|
|
Force is through the action of the mind rather then the physical act of breathing. As your
|
|
attention has been on the physical act of breathing let's now move it to the Earth Force
|
|
surrounding you.
|
|
|
|
This Force is the Life of the world. Through it you have your well-being. Your mind must
|
|
remain in a state of complete openness to the Earth Force. Your mind must be completely
|
|
centered in the Earth Force alone. The mind must be without strain. You must not force the
|
|
indrawing of the Earth Force. It is breathed into your being through a conscious attunement to
|
|
it. Feel the Earth Force entering into your body. See it penetrating every cell in your body and
|
|
causing them to be filled Earth Light. Know that as it fills your physical body with Earth Light
|
|
and Life that the Earth Force also charges your higher bodies with this same Emerald Light.
|
|
As you continue to absorb the Earth Force know that you will achieve a Oneness with it. You
|
|
will lose identity with your physical body and forget physical limitations for in the Earth
|
|
Force there are no limits. You are the Earth Force, Limitless and Free. Through Night
|
|
Breathing, you will become filled with the Earth Force. This Force will keep your body in
|
|
Eternal Youth. You will be free of sickness. You will have abundant energy. Not only does the
|
|
Earth Force quicken the physical but also the Emotional Body. Your outlook on life will
|
|
improve. It will raise the vibration of your body so that depression, loneliness, and fear will
|
|
not have a part in your world. The Night Force transforms the Mental Body. It can give you
|
|
perfect memory. Your mind and all that it can do will be greatly enhanced. Your memory will
|
|
be able to search back to when it first was. The Earth Force will help raise your overall Being
|
|
into Night Consciousness. In addition to the practice of Night Breathing and the use of the
|
|
Earth Force you must also study and practice the art of the Magician's Meditation.
|
|
|
|
15. The Night Magician's Meditation
|
|
|
|
The Night Magician's Meditation is the beginning level at which you will begin to awaken your
|
|
Inner Self. It is an exercise that is essential to your magickal growth. In the beginning stages
|
|
of meditation, your sense of awareness will take place from your physical awareness, but as
|
|
you grow your conscious awareness will move into your Oversoul. There are many benefits
|
|
that can be derived from meditation.
|
|
|
|
Meditation will greatly benefit your health. The body will become inwardly calm and
|
|
tranquil. The practice of Magician's Meditation can help to eliminate ulcers and other
|
|
physical problems due to stress and tension. What meditation can do for you physically it can
|
|
also do for you emotionally.
|
|
|
|
You can achieve a state of emotional tranquility and stability never before thought possible.
|
|
No matter the confusion going on around you, you will be able remain steady and firm as a
|
|
rock. It will develop your ability to concentrate and to expand the workings of your mind.
|
|
|
|
You will be able to achieve true telepathic communication with those of similar magickal
|
|
standing. Your memory will be vastly enhanced. Ideas from the Higher Mental Realm will
|
|
come to you. From the Mental Realm, you will be able to contact and obtain information from
|
|
the Akashic Record. This Record I will speak of later. You will be able to know the past,
|
|
present, and future probabilities for yourself and for others. You will be able to gain a true
|
|
understanding of your life and why you are here. There are preparations and precautions to
|
|
take prior to meditating.
|
|
|
|
First, you must watch the food you eat. You must avoid fried foods and spicy foods close to the
|
|
meditation period. Do not eat just prior to meditating for a full stomach can be quite
|
|
discomforting. You will then need to set a quiet period aside each day. This period should be at
|
|
the same time each day if possible. Early morning or late evening will be the best time. You
|
|
should feel refreshed when you meditate so wash up prior to commencing. Now that you have
|
|
taken care of your bodily needs it is time to set the proper atmosphere for meditation.
|
|
|
|
Retire to your Magician's Study and be sure that you can not be disturbed for say a half hour.
|
|
Put on your robe, light your incense, and sit down in a very comfortable chair. Do not light
|
|
your candle for the flickering will tend to distract you. Once you have done this you are ready
|
|
to begin the Magician's Meditation.
|
|
|
|
Close your eyes now and place the Night Pillar around you. Follow this with Night Breathing.
|
|
Now select the type of meditation. There are actually two ways of meditating, and they differ
|
|
by your conscious directive.
|
|
The first way of meditating will have you direct your thoughts on a particular subject. For
|
|
example, the subject can be on strength. You will want to look at the different types of
|
|
strength. Try to understand how strength develops and how you can become stronger. You can
|
|
go on to becoming Pure Strength and the qualities needed in your life to be Strength. As you
|
|
continue to look fully at the subject of strength and understand all that there is about it your
|
|
conscious thoughts will slowly be overshadowed by your Oversoul, and you will be given true
|
|
enlightenment on Strength, or any subject you should choose. The second way deals with
|
|
entering the Silence of your Oversoul.
|
|
|
|
Here you will not choose a topic but remain in a state of silence and complete Openness to the
|
|
Indwelling Oversoul. You must remain completely free of thought. You must not enter into
|
|
this meditation with cares or worries but surrender them into the care of your Oversoul. As
|
|
you advance into the meditation you will become aware of Its Presence. You will feel Its
|
|
Energy. Here the Oversoul will choose the subject of importance and instruct you directly.
|
|
Remember, "to be Silent and Know".
|
|
|
|
Having chosen the type of meditation, turn your attention to within yourself and give open
|
|
recognition to the Oversoul within. If you feel a slight sense of shaking or a raising of the heart
|
|
beat do not let it bother you. It is a good sign that what you want is taking place. Remain very
|
|
relaxed and allow your thoughts to drift on the subject. Do not overtire yourself. If at first you
|
|
can only do five to ten minutes then that's fine. Do not push for results. The results will come
|
|
in their own good time. Meditate only as long as you feel comfortable with it. After you have
|
|
finished don't get up and plunge back into the work-a-day world. Take it easy and allow
|
|
yourself a few minutes or however long is necessary to adjust to a faster pace of living. In
|
|
Magician's Meditation, you slowed your rate of living considerably. Strive to attain but be
|
|
patient for the results to happen. You will not attain all you can be overnight but someday the
|
|
Night will be yours. There is nothing greater you can do for your quest on the Night Road then
|
|
the sincere practice of Night Magician's Meditation. In Night Magician's Meditation you
|
|
studied a method of changing your conscious vibration and attuning it with the Oversoul's
|
|
Consciousness. Now you are going to explore the very depths and heights of the Realm of
|
|
Vibration.
|
|
16. The Realm of Vibration
|
|
|
|
The study of vibration is important to a Night Magician. The actual magickal progression
|
|
made is a result of increased vibration of the physical, emotional, mental, and causal bodies.
|
|
You must therefore begin with the lowest level of vibration, the physical, and study its nature.
|
|
|
|
Vibration is movement. In the physical world, vibration is based on molecular motion or
|
|
movement. The physical world is composed of small particles in motion which are termed
|
|
molecules. Molecules are composed of small particles known as atoms. Atoms are composed
|
|
of even smaller particles which are protons, neutrons, and electrons. If you could become
|
|
small enough you would see that the electrons orbit around the nucleus like the planets around
|
|
the Sun. If you took the analogy farther, you would see that the human body would be
|
|
composed of many solar and galactic systems. The human body is in constant molecular
|
|
motion which produces something akin to electricity. There are machines today which can
|
|
measure this very fine electricity. The combination of this fine electricity added to the Energy
|
|
of the Oversoul causes sentient life. All forms of matter produce this fine energy due to
|
|
molecular motion.
|
|
|
|
Further, all matter, that is the mineral, plant, and animal kingdoms, are guided in
|
|
development, just as you are, by a Higher Power and therefore have Life. This Life is perhaps
|
|
not as you know Life, but yet it is Life. As you have seen, all forms of matter have molecular
|
|
activity. This molecular activity is very active in some forms and slower in others. The rock
|
|
has a very slow molecular, or vibrational rate, whereas the air has a very high vibrational
|
|
rate. This rate of vibration is termed frequency. When the vibrational rate is high the
|
|
frequency is high and the opposite is also true. You have learned that matter is in a constant
|
|
state of motion. That all motion has a relative vibrational rate, or frequency, dependent on
|
|
the molecular activity. An important part of the physical realm of vibration which goes on to
|
|
touch all levels of vibration is light and color.
|
|
|
|
Light and colors are dependent on matter and its rate of vibration. Color is important in your
|
|
physical life. In a moment, you will discuss how it effects the human body, but some
|
|
background information on light and color will prove beneficial. Light is energy. Light is
|
|
actually electromagnetic radiation. When light strikes an object the molecules absorb some of
|
|
that energy, and in turn, that which is not absorbed is reflected and radiated out into the
|
|
surrounding space. This radiation is perceived by the eyes as color. The different colors seen
|
|
are due to the different frequencies of that radiation. This frequency is a slightly different
|
|
term than that used to describe molecular activity. The frequency used to measure color is
|
|
based on the fact that color is a radiation or energy. Light is separated into seven basic
|
|
frequencies. These frequencies are seen as the colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo,
|
|
and violet. Red is of the lowest frequency and violet the highest. Here you have looked at the
|
|
physical definitions of light and color. How, though, can light and color be of benefit to the
|
|
well-being of your physical body?
|
|
|
|
You are familiar with how colors can effect one's mood. A blue room for example can give one
|
|
a feeling of peace and relaxation while a red room would tend to make one feel energetic or
|
|
even nervous. But few of us are aware of how colors can effect the physical body directly. The
|
|
entire principle behind color healing is vibration. Every part of your body vibrates at a
|
|
particular frequency. Disease is the result when any part of the body develops disharmony or
|
|
the wrong frequency. Color radiation when directed at the particular area of imbalance,
|
|
induces a sympathetic vibration into that organ and corrects the frequency of the organ back
|
|
to its original frequency, and thus, good health. How can this be done?
|
|
|
|
Before explaining this procedure its best to give this WARNING!!! Do not go out based on these
|
|
teachings and setup a healing practice! If you are not a doctor, are you really sure of what is
|
|
wrong with the person? You could be sued if you end up hurting someone. As you progress
|
|
magickally, you will know through your Oversoul what is wrong with the person and what
|
|
color to use. Use this science to help only those to whom you are close to and on yourself. Be
|
|
absolutely sure of what you are doing. If you have any doubts, DON'T DO IT! This is a great
|
|
healing science if used wisely. Be careful. There are several methods to induce color healing.
|
|
No discussion will be made here of the use of color lamps for they will be replaced soon with a
|
|
more advanced machine. What will be discussed is the use of color meditation and your own
|
|
physical instrument, the body.
|
|
|
|
You are a channel for the higher energies. You are a magnet for these energies and by
|
|
concentrating or meditating on the specific color necessary to be applied you will magnetize
|
|
them to you and then be able to apply them to the one needing healing. Before discussing the
|
|
actual procedure you must prepare yourself as you did in meditation. Be sure you are in good
|
|
health or you could induce your illness into the one your healing. When you enter into
|
|
meditation it would be good to get a sheet of paper with the color you wish to magnetize and
|
|
gaze on it. As your meditation proceeds be sure your ankles and hands are crossed. This
|
|
conserves the energy you are magnetizing. Visualize this color energy filling your Night Pillar.
|
|
See the Pillar becoming filled with the color until it can hold no more. Then you are ready to
|
|
pass it to the one in need of healing. If you are the one who needs healing see that energy
|
|
penetrating the area in poor health. See that part of the body becoming whole and perfect. If it
|
|
is another person or anything needing the color energy place your hands on the area that is ill.
|
|
Again see that energy penetrating into that part and restoring it to perfect harmony and
|
|
vibration. You do not necessarily have to be present to administer the healing energy. If the
|
|
person is somewhere else see your energy moving to that person. Visualize that person and the
|
|
area of illness and again see the energy making all whole and perfect. Be sure when you are
|
|
finished that you wash your hands in cold running water. It will be necessary to continue the
|
|
number of treatments once every hour until the condition is relieved. You should apply the
|
|
healing for a period lasting fifteen minutes. These continuous treatments are necessary so
|
|
that you are working in harmony with the cyclic nature of the body. This time period allows
|
|
the body adequate time to use the energy being supplied to it. Also it allows you to know when
|
|
to stop treatment, for sometime in the forty-five minute period, you can observe the healing
|
|
process and its progress. The last subject to discuss is the colors themselves and what ailments
|
|
they cure. You will begin with the lowest frequency of color, red.
|
|
|
|
Red is vibrant and alive. Red is a heating, vitalizing, and stimulating color. It is directly
|
|
responsible for your physical vitality. In cases where there is a lack of energy red is an
|
|
exceptional color. It is effective in the treatment of anemia and cancer. It vitalizes the blood
|
|
and helps to purify it. Do not use this color when there is an inflammatory condition present
|
|
or when the person is of excitable temperament.
|
|
|
|
The color orange has often been associated with the Sun. It is necessary for health and
|
|
vitality. It influences primarily the processes of assimilation and circulation. The color
|
|
helps to regulate the intake of food and is centered around the spleen. It is good for the
|
|
treatment of asthma, bronchitis, colds, and epilepsy. It is further useful for the treatment of
|
|
gout, inflammation of the kidneys, gall stones, cessation of menstruation, and mental
|
|
debility.
|
|
|
|
The color yellow acts as a tonic on the nerves. It is an inspiring and mentally stimulating
|
|
color. It is good for the treatment of dyspepsia, diabetes, flatulence, and constipation. Clear
|
|
golden yellow is one of the most powerful forces against depression and limitations of every
|
|
kind. Yellow stimulates the brain as well as exerting great therapeutic influence on the
|
|
assimilative organs of the body. Yellow also stimulates the purifying action in the body for it
|
|
effects the liver, gall bladder, and intestines in stimulating them and aiding in the
|
|
elimination of the body wastes. Yellow improves the texture of the skin, heals scars, and heals
|
|
other blemishes.
|
|
|
|
Green is the color of the Earth. It is the color of harmony and balance. It has a soothing effect
|
|
upon the nerves. It has a very powerful effect on the blood supply and its distribution
|
|
throughout the body. Green is an excellent tranquilizer and is further beneficial in the
|
|
treatment of heart complaints, blood pressure, and headaches. Blue is the color of deep peace
|
|
and harmony. It acts upon the body as a powerful antiseptic. It is excellent in the treatment of
|
|
insomnia. Blue is good in the treatment of all throat diseases and in the treatment of gall
|
|
bladder attacks, jaundice, skin abrasions, cuts, burns, and rheumatism.
|
|
|
|
Indigo is the Healer for the eyes, ears, and nose. It is excellent in the treatment of deafness,
|
|
cataract, delirium tremens, and eye inflammation. It is good in the treatment of lung
|
|
disorders, pneumonia, asthma, bronchitis, and indigestion.
|
|
|
|
Violet is the highest vibration of visible light. Its effect is primarily in the area of the brain. It
|
|
is good in the treatment of mental disorders, cataracts, and paralysis. Creative artist and
|
|
workers would benefit by surrounding their room with objects of this color and meditating
|
|
and storing this color. It is excellent in the treatment of insomnia.
|
|
|
|
In closing, again use the colors carefully. Do not use them excessively. At all times, you should
|
|
seek the guidance of your Oversoul. Never prescribe treatment to anyone. And above all, in the
|
|
case of illness Consult your Physician! You can use this science to aid your healing and that of
|
|
others, but it is not meant to replace the therapeutic care given by your Physician. I have made
|
|
a small beginning in discussing the realm of vibration. I spoke of the vibrating world around
|
|
us and how all life is in constant motion. I discussed the special world of light and colors and
|
|
their relationship to the human body. In the next topic you are going to explore some
|
|
fascinating information concerning the human body and how it works.
|

|
17. Night Centers and the Physical and Etheric Bodies
|
|
|
|
In the Eastern languages the Night Centers are known as chakras. Night Centers are located in
|
|
each type of body that you have, from the Etheric to the Mental Body. They are, in appearance,
|
|
small whirlpool-like vortices of concentrated energy. The Night Centers are responsible for a
|
|
number of functions. They are conveyors of the Night Force from higher dimensions to the
|
|
lower ones. They act as step-down transformers taking the higher energy and lowering it to
|
|
meet the requirements of each body. They further function as message centers. They connect
|
|
each dimension from the higher ones to the lower with an internal form of communication
|
|
keeping your entire system of bodies in rapport with each other. They have other functions but
|
|
these will be covered in later topics. You are presently going to look at two bodies, the physical
|
|
and Etheric, and the role of the Night Centers to each. Let's look at the physical body first.
|
|
|
|
In the physical body there is a corresponding organ and/or gland to each of the Night Centers.
|
|
The lowest of the centers is at the base of the spine and relates to the gonads. The second of
|
|
these centers is located over the area of the spleen and is associated with the spleen/pancreas.
|
|
The third Night Center is located over the navel area or the solar plexus and corresponds to the
|
|
adrenal glands. The fourth is located over the heart region and relates to the thymus gland.
|
|
The fifth is located in the throat area and relates to the thyroid gland. The sixth Night Center
|
|
is located in the brow area and relates to the pineal gland. The seventh Night Center is located
|
|
at the top or crown of the head and is associated with the pituitary gland. What is interesting
|
|
and important to observe is that the organs make up the endocrine system.
|
|
|
|
These glands produce a substance called hormone which is spilled into the blood stream to
|
|
regulate every cell in the body. These glands further effect the growth and development of the
|
|
physical body; the way you feel; and even the way you think. The endocrine system is regulated
|
|
by the nervous system. Here there is an important parallel. For every Night Center there is a
|
|
nerve center that corresponds to it too. These nerve centers are closely related to the glands
|
|
they regulate, which are those of the endocrine system. This leads us to the Night Centers,
|
|
Etheric Body, and their relationship to your bodily control.
|
|
|
|
The Etheric Body is produced by the electromagnetic energy generated by the physical body.
|
|
The Etheric is an exact counterpart to the physical body. The Etheric Body interpenetrates the
|
|
physical body and extends from a half inch to four inches around the physical body and can be
|
|
seen by the Night Eye as a whitish blue light. The Etheric Body is the lowest body where the
|
|
Night Centers can be found. The Oversoul influences the body through the transmission of
|
|
Night Force through the Higher Night Centers which continues to be stepped down till the
|
|
energies enter the Etheric vortices which in turn affects the nerve centers, endocrine system,
|
|
and the body overall. They are all interrelated. The two Night Centers which directly effect the
|
|
well-being of the physical body are the lowest two.
|
|
|
|
The lowest center found at the base of the spine contains the Earth Fire. In the Eastern
|
|
religions it is called Kundalini. I will discuss this Energy in a later topic but for now I will
|
|
discuss the intake of Earth Force, a less concentrated form of the Earth Fire. Those who have
|
|
ever lived in a high-rise apartments and worked in similar offices may recall feeling very tired
|
|
and run down. This is due to lack of direct contact with the Earth. It is essential for humans to
|
|
remain in contact with the Earth. When the body makes direct contact with the Earth, the base
|
|
Night Center is then able to absorb the Earth's energy. Everyone should take time to get
|
|
outdoors in direct contact with Mother Earth and absorb that vital energy. In a later topic, I
|
|
will present a rite to help keep the Earth energies high in yourself. The second Night Center
|
|
concerned with your well-being is located over the spleen/pancreas and absorbs the pranic
|
|
force generated by the Sun.
|
|
This is the second energy necessary for the well-being of your physical body. An adequate
|
|
intake of this energy will give you good health. It will give you vitality, youth, and a zest for
|
|
life. As was mentioned earlier, the Etheric extends beyond and around the outline of the body
|
|
approximately a half to four inches. It is bluish grey to bluish white in color. When a person is
|
|
in good health the Etheric will be strong in appearance and extend several inches beyond the
|
|
outline of the body. In poor health or when one is low in energy the Etheric will be close to the
|
|
body and hard to see. How do you see the Etheric?
|
|
|
|
Etheric sight is the best way to begin to see magickally. Since this energy is of lesser vibration
|
|
then that of auric energy it will be easier to see with the Night Eye. For a moment, let's discuss
|
|
exactly what is the Night Eye and then the mechanics of how it operates.
|
|
|
|
The Night Eye and its existence have been known since the time of the Ancient Ones. In the
|
|
Eastern languages it's referred to as the "Third Eye" . The Night Eye is a magickal organ that
|
|
when activated allows you to see the higher dimensions. The Night Eye is also capable of
|
|
enlarging microscopic particles till you can see them. This is very similar to the microscope
|
|
and its function. For most, the Night Eye is closed and blind to the higher realm, but through
|
|
the techniques and practices in this work you will learn to use and see through the Night Eye.
|
|
The mechanics of the Night Eye will be discussed in greater depth in a later topic. For now, the
|
|
Night Eye is related to the sixth Night Center and the pineal gland. When they are functioning
|
|
under your voluntary control then you are able to see magickally. Knowledge of the exact
|
|
mechanics is not necessary in order for you to see through the Night Eye. What is necessary is
|
|
knowing the techniques for opening and using the Night Eye and then plenty of practice.
|
|
Therefore, let's perform some exercises to begin its development.
|
|
|
|
To convince yourself more fully that there really is an Etheric Body begin with the following
|
|
experiment. One night as you are in bed, lie on your back with your feet spread apart. Then
|
|
slowly bring your feet together until you can feel them touch each other. When you feel them
|
|
just touch try and see if you can put them together any closer. You will be surprised to find that
|
|
you can. This distance is the area occupied by the Etheric. You can also do this with another
|
|
person. Try touching the other person on an area of bare skin. The neck and head area is the
|
|
best. Touch them with one finger very lightly and then slowly remove the finger to about one
|
|
inch away. The person will not be able to tell the difference when you are touching and when
|
|
you are not. Now that you are more fully convinced that there is an Etheric, let's move on and
|
|
see it.
|
|
|
|
It will be easier if you get another person to help you. Have that person stand against a neutral
|
|
background, the best color is white, and have them relax and breathe deeply. The lighting is
|
|
very important. The light should be behind you and positioned such that it will not produce a
|
|
shadow on the subject. The lighting should be dim. You should now position yourself away
|
|
from the subject about six to ten feet and sit or stand in a comfortable position. Relax and
|
|
breathe deeply. Look at the subject and let your eyes relax. Do not concentrate on seeing
|
|
anything. Look beyond the subject as if looking off into the distance. The subject's Etheric
|
|
Energy will extend around the outline of the physical body. If you are alone you can still
|
|
practice seeing the Etheric.
|
|
|
|
Have a mirror positioned in front of you such that you can see the upper body outline. Have
|
|
behind you a background of neutral color. Do the same as outlined above as if you had
|
|
someone before you. In all the work, outlined above, do not become discouraged if results do
|
|
not occur the first time. Be patient and know that all is, and will, work for you if you but try.
|
|
No one can become a Master Night Magician without great practice and perseverance. So you,
|
|
too, can be a Master of Night Magick if you will but practice and persevere. You leave the Realm
|
|
of the Etheric and Magickal Sight to enter into the Realm of Magickal Sound.
|
|
|
|
18. The Power of Sound
|
|
|
|
Ever see an opera singer shatter a crystal glass? It is said that words are things and once
|
|
spoken may cause the very thing to happen. Can there really be so much to the spoken word?
|
|
Let's explore the physical properties of the spoken word, or in other words, sound and its
|
|
properties and discover the secret.
|
|
|
|
You first must learn that sound is caused by vibrating structures. That for sound to travel it
|
|
must move through a material substance or medium. Sound travels as a wave motion. As a
|
|
sound wave travels, in a medium, small displacements occur to the molecules in that medium
|
|
or substance. These small displacements are a regular collective motion in which all the
|
|
molecules, in a small volume of matter, move together. Think of this motion as compared to a
|
|
small volume of water held by a container in which you would see a wave moving in the
|
|
volume of water. This ordered wave motion is superimposed on the random thermal agitation
|
|
or vibration of the molecules. We, therefore, look at sound waves as the molecules of the
|
|
substance jiggling back and forth in a regular fashion. You know that sound is the result of
|
|
vibrating bodies but beyond this you must know that a traveling sound wave transports
|
|
energy.
|
|
|
|
When this sound wave is incident on, or striking, a body of matter there is absorption of that
|
|
sound wave's energy by that body. In some cases this will force the body to vibrate at the
|
|
frequency of the incident wave. A state of resonance will occur when the vibration of the body
|
|
and that of the incident wave are close in natural frequency. Sound can do some phenomenal
|
|
things. For example, remember the high pitched note of the singer, when it is incident upon the
|
|
crystal glass, causes it to break. But even greater is the Power of the spoken word or sound
|
|
energy, when that energy is transmitted on the carrier wave of creative magickal thought. The
|
|
spoken word is endowed with the Night Force when the creative thought behind that word is
|
|
that of Night Consciousness. Your words are endowed with Night Force when your Magickal
|
|
Consciousness is that of the Oversoul. Your words are as potent as your consciousness is equal
|
|
to that of Night Consciousness. For your words to be life and accomplish that where they are
|
|
sent, then your consciousness must be that of the Oversoul. Your will is the selector of the
|
|
words, but for them to be more then mere words they must be endowed with Night Force
|
|
through Night Consciousness. Let's try it.
|
|
|
|
To begin with first see yourself as the Oversoul. Feel the Night Presence of your own Oversoul
|
|
selecting the words with which you wish to create with. Then speak the words knowing that it
|
|
is not you that says the words, but that it is the Oversoul who says the Words. Then those
|
|
Words will go forth and do as they are sent forth to do. The greater your attunement with your
|
|
Oversoul, the greater will be the potency of the Words. Keep your thoughts in tune with your
|
|
Oversoul at all times. For your words to take on the Night Force you must become the Oversoul
|
|
in all you do. Repeat the Words over and over again till you can feel the words take on a life of
|
|
their own. Repeat them till your words are endowed with Night Force then they will go forth
|
|
and create as you have said. There are no limitations to what your Words in Night
|
|
Consciousness may do. They can bring to you your heart's desire. They can literally move
|
|
mountains. They can create life. There are no limitations to what you can do, so long as it is
|
|
in accord with your Oversoul. As you are filled with the Sound of the Oversoul, now to fill
|
|
yourself with the Energies of the Earth.
|
|
|
|
19. Earth Rite
|
|
|
|
Your body is very much like that of the Earth. As was shown in an earlier topic, the body has
|
|
interspaced in it an Etheric Body. This is your magnetic field just as the Earth has a magnetic
|
|
field. It is essential to your good health to be in contact with the Earth. The Earth currents
|
|
mixed with your own magnetic currents keep you in good health. You will experience less
|
|
tension and frustration. If you can do nothing else you should get out into the country and go
|
|
barefoot. Here though, I would like to introduce a rite which will allow you to absorb a great
|
|
deal more Earth Energy.
|
|
|
|
The Earth's energy is of the highest order. You may feel that the Earth is an unclean place and
|
|
that its energies are of the same order. This is not true! Man's attitude is the harmful energy
|
|
which is slowly destroying the Earth itself. From the Oversoul's viewpoint the Earth is
|
|
covered in a dense blanket of Man's wrongful attitude concerning the Earth. The Earth is the
|
|
Body of a magickally advanced Being and Its Energies are of the deepest order. Let's look
|
|
specifically at how to absorb these life giving energies.
|
|
|
|
The only place to do this rite is outdoors. You should select a place which is free of Man's
|
|
urbanization. Go out into a park or a private woods. Go somewhere so that you won't be
|
|
disturbed. Once you have selected a place that feels right sit down and get comfortable. Your
|
|
bottom should be in direct contact with the Earth. Do not sit in a chair. Next begin with deep
|
|
breathing, relax, and let all tension go. When you are perfectly relaxed begin to feel your own
|
|
Etheric Body. Feel your magnetic current touching the magnetic current of the Earth. When
|
|
you breathe in, you will draw the Earth Energy up into your body via the Night Centers. See
|
|
this energy flowing up through the base center and flow on higher and higher through each
|
|
center until it reaches the crown center. When it has reached this far, hold the energy there
|
|
and allow it to penetrate your entire being. Then, as you exhale, see the tired and tense
|
|
energies of your own body flow back out of your body and being absorbed by the Earth. The
|
|
Earth will change and charge these energies with Earth Force. Continue this exercise as long as
|
|
you feel comfortable. During this exercise you should feel a communion and Oneness with the
|
|
Soul of the Earth. The Earth is a Magickal Fountain of the Darkest Night. Drink from it and
|
|
be renewed!
|
|
|
|
You have traveled far on the Earth Road. You have learned a great deal about yourself. You
|
|
have come to know the hidden faculties and powers that lie within you. But as all things on
|
|
Earth must end so in the next topic, you will come to know your own ending and this chapter
|
|
on Earth Magick.
|
|
|
|
20. The Physical Realm of Death
|
|
|
|
It has always been said that people fear the unknown. One of the greatest unknowns in life is
|
|
death. Dying is as important as living on Earth. Dying does not have to be a big unknown.
|
|
There does not have to be fear of death. To end the fear of dying one must look at death and
|
|
understand it.
|
|
|
|
Your life is sustained only so long as the silver cord is attached to your physical body. This is
|
|
your lifeline from your Oversoul to that which you know as "I". In the actual physical process
|
|
of dying it takes three complete days for this cord to separate. The body should be left alone
|
|
and undisturbed as much as possible till then. As you are separating, you feel like a cloud
|
|
drifting over your physical body. After three days, you will cast off like a ship adrift on the
|
|
seas. The process of dying is entirely painless and you should have no fear. Before casting off
|
|
for the next dimension, you are required to view the actual process of the preparation of your
|
|
body for burial. This is to convince you that your physical body has actually died, but that you
|
|
still live. Here, it might be appropriate to say something about those who are left behind.
|
|
|
|
In the west, you have been taught that you should grieve for the one who has departed. It would
|
|
be more appropriate to celebrate for they now have left this world for a new world of happiness
|
|
and joy. In this new world there is no suffering, hunger, or struggle for survival. You grieve
|
|
over another's dying for many reasons, but mostly at the loss you feel and at being alone. How
|
|
can you overcome this grief?
|
|
|
|
First, you should realize that you will someday be reunited with them if you wish. Only those
|
|
in harmony with each other can reunite, for only harmony can exist on the other side. You
|
|
should also realize that you should not grieve so much for the one gone, for you tend to disturb
|
|
their rest and recuperation on the other side. What can you do to help the person who is
|
|
suffering from grief?
|
|
|
|
The best help you can provide is to be the "listening ear". You should do everything in your
|
|
power to help the person talk out their grief. Let them talk to you about the sorrow they feel
|
|
over their loss and talk about how it was in the past. Keep them company and let them cry all
|
|
they want. Crying and tears are the greatest safety valve the human body has. This prevents
|
|
an emotional overload causing perhaps insanity. Allow the person a reasonable time to
|
|
express their grief. But this should not go on for ever and ever. Grief can not be allowed to go
|
|
too far. It will cause the person to develop self-pity and this is just as bad. Dying to this world
|
|
is birth to the next and higher world. There is a practice which will assist you in the process of
|
|
dying. You should prepare yourself through meditation. Meditate on the subject of death as
|
|
has been described here. See yourself at the time of dying. Feel and know yourself developing
|
|
as a cloud of consciousness over the physical body. See yourself actually trying to get out of
|
|
that old dying house. Then you should see and visualize the person you want to come help you
|
|
and meet you. Feel their presence very strong and know that they are there to help you make
|
|
the transition. If you have no one special to come get you, know that there are special helpers
|
|
waiting to assist you into the next dimension. Have no fear for you are never alone. Know that
|
|
just as soon as there is complete separation of the silver cord from the physical body that they
|
|
will assist you to the next realm. Then allow yourself to relax and wait out the physical
|
|
process of dying. There is no pain nor fear to experience, only the beginning of a new day in a
|
|
new world. The only thing you will experience is the feeling of going home. This simple
|
|
process of meditating on the transition from one world to the next can relieve much anxiety
|
|
and worry when the actual time seems near. There is no way that meditating on death can
|
|
bring about the actual thing. Only the Oversoul knows the time of transition and can cause it
|
|
to happen. So rest assured, that in dying from the physical world, the process is simple, easy,
|
|
and merely a phase of transition necessary to enter the next world beyond. Now you must also
|
|
make the transition from one chapter in Night Magick to the next.
|
|
|
|
You must leave behind the Earth Realm and enter the Water Realm. You have seen many
|
|
wonders in the Earth Realm. You have learned better ways of breathing and things about your
|
|
body you may have never known about. You are opening your Night Eye by learning about and
|
|
seeing your Etheric Body. You should be acquiring better health and a sounder mind through
|
|
meditation and the use of colors. I must emphasize here, before leaving Earth Magick, that no
|
|
matter how far you go do not stop practicing the techniques, rites, and exercises learned early
|
|
in this book. Always take time to meditate and practice Night Breathing. All the things you
|
|
have learned, so far, are essential for your success later on. If you are ready to explore a
|
|
fascinating realm and discover many new wonders, then let's enter into the exciting Realm of
|
|
Water Magick.
|
|
|
|
CHAPTER V
|
|
|
|
|
|
WATER MAGICK
|
|
|
|
21. The Water (Astral) Realm
|
|
|
|
Here you will enter a land of great beauty. A land of Harmony and Peace. In the last topic, you
|
|
had just left your dying body, the silver cord had separated, and you were set off adrift. At this
|
|
point, it is essential that you believe that there is continuity in life after physical death,
|
|
otherwise you will simply drift in a dense, dark fog, until slowly you realize, that you are still
|
|
conscious and alive. As soon as doubt is gone, the clouds will dissipate and your loved ones
|
|
will be there to help you.
|
|
|
|
In the first stage of transition, you will be allowed time to recuperate. The process of living on
|
|
Earth and the troubles of the long years spent there have made you very weary. In the new
|
|
realm that you have just entered, you are given time to rest from your journey on Earth and to
|
|
adjust to the Astral Realm. Everyone, no matter what their magickal attainment, must enter
|
|
this level of the Astral Realm. It has been referred to, by some religions, as purgatory. You are
|
|
here in order to rest, purify yourself of human dross and make decisions about your magickal
|
|
future. Your magickal development determines the level of purgatory you first arrive at.
|
|
|
|
For souls who are of the lowest and crudest of development, there is a very low vibrational
|
|
level for them. At this level, acts of the worst kind, akin to their own vibrations, are portrayed
|
|
before them. The things that they did wrong on Earth are done to them. This is a very dense
|
|
region. This is not a land of punishment and torture, but a place to show the individual the
|
|
folly of such a life and a place to rid the soul of its denser energies. This is not Hell. There is no
|
|
such place as Hell. If Hell is anywhere it is right here on Earth. It is what humankind has
|
|
made of the Earth.
|
|
|
|
Above this there is the next level which some go immediately to and some come up to from a
|
|
lower level. This level is for souls who allowed their lower passions to rule them. For those
|
|
who sought after money and power without maintaining the Eternal Night Balance. This
|
|
region is very much akin to the physical plane just left behind. The Astral surroundings will
|
|
be very similar to those of the Earth. Here the souls will remain, till they rid themselves of the
|
|
courser Astral material, so that they may go ever higher. They rid themselves of this dense
|
|
Astral material by learning control of their passions. They must make up the Eternal
|
|
Balance. From here we go to the level you probably rose to from the beginning.
|
|
|
|
You rise to the level where generally all begin who are of a basically good nature. This land is
|
|
filled with beautiful parks and lakes. There are very beautiful buildings all around you. There
|
|
are colors never before seen by you. The air is alive with energy and life. Animal life is
|
|
abundant and tame. There is beautiful music everywhere in the air. Here in this realm no
|
|
disharmony can occur. No one can meet anyone who would cause them unhappiness of any
|
|
kind. When you first arrive, your loved ones or magickal helpers will be there to assist you. In
|
|
this realm, all that you want is produced by your thoughts. Travel is by thought. If you want to
|
|
wear clothes then you must think of yourself dressed as you want to be dressed. Your
|
|
nourishment is all around you. All you have to do is breathe. Your physical habits that you
|
|
learned on Earth will still be with you. You may feel that you still have to eat. This is fine.
|
|
You need only think of the food you want to eat plus the table and so forth necessary to eat it
|
|
with. But the sooner you learn to forget the old physical habits, and learn and experience your
|
|
new Astral Body, the sooner you will be able to progress. This is a very real world. This world
|
|
is as solid and real to its inhabitants as your own Earth is to you. But there are some who see
|
|
this realm slightly different.
|
|
|
|
For some souls who believe in an exact type of heaven according to their religious beliefs, or
|
|
even of the opposite region, and feel that this is where they are going, then this is what they
|
|
will see. If they believe that they will see the Pearly Gates and St. Pete at them, then this is
|
|
what they will see. Gradually though, imperfections will show up here and there. The gates
|
|
may squeak or even fall off the hinges as they start to open. The angels, flying about, may
|
|
suddenly be wearing flannel shirts and play off-key on their rusty harps. When the person has
|
|
enough doubts about their make-believe heaven, then like a dream, it will disappear and the
|
|
real Astral Realm will appear and so their beloved ones too.
|
|
|
|
It is best to keep an open mind when you make the transition. This will quicken your entry
|
|
into your new realm and life. After you have become adjusted to this new realm, you will be
|
|
escorted to a building where you will review your recent life and past lives you have lived. All
|
|
that you have ever done will be shown to you on what has been called in some religions the
|
|
Akashic Record, and by others, the Book of Records. Let's look at this Record and see what it
|
|
is?
|
|
|
|
The Night Record, as you will come to know it, is a special energy upon which everything that
|
|
has ever occurred to anyone and anything is recorded. There is further shown, on the Night
|
|
Record, the probabilities for the future. This Record not only can show what has occurred on
|
|
the Earth, but for anyplace located anywhere. This Record can be seen by those who have
|
|
made the Earth transition in order to look at their life just lived, and by those of high
|
|
magickal development who have a need to see. The Record is not for the use of just anyone.
|
|
|
|
So, you were just entering the Night Record Hall and preparing to review your life. You see the
|
|
things you did and the things you shouldn't have done. You see the things you were supposed to
|
|
have done and learned. No one judges you but yourself and your Oversoul! You are your own
|
|
sternest judge. It is through your Oversoul that you see where you have gone wrong and what
|
|
your Oversoul wanted you to accomplish in your life. You are then led out of the Hall by your
|
|
guide and taken to a council of advisors. These advisors are trained to aid you in reviewing
|
|
your lives and determining the best means for accomplishing the previous desired results
|
|
wanted by your Oversoul and thus planning your future. You are placed in the proper
|
|
circumstances, at the proper time, to achieve the desired results. After this planning, you will
|
|
retire to the Astral Realm of your vibration and rest and prepare yourself for the next phase of
|
|
life.
|
|
|
|
You are responsible for all that you do in life. You are responsible for the debts you occur in
|
|
life and for repaying your debts. No one will pay your debts except you. The bad and good you
|
|
create is called Karma. Karma and the Astral Realm are deeply related. It is at this plane of
|
|
life that you make decisions which will effect your future. Until you learn the lessons
|
|
necessary to be learned on the Earth plane then you must continue to return until you have
|
|
learned all there is to be learned. Who determines when you have learned all that there is to be
|
|
learned? The Oversoul is who!
|
|
|
|
In a Process not described here, your future is woven out of your magickal essence in the Astral
|
|
Realm. This magickal fabric that is being woven contains the basic kinds of programs. By
|
|
programs, I am referring to programs very similar to that used by the computer so that it can
|
|
carry out its basic functions. One of your inner programs sets for you predetermined events
|
|
which you must experience. These events are the results of energies you have set into motion
|
|
from out of the past which must be again experienced and worked through. Further, they can
|
|
be events, not necessarily a result of your past but of events which you need to experience to
|
|
make you stronger and a better instrument for your Oversoul. The second program is for you to
|
|
make.
|
|
|
|
These are periods which allow you to determine the path you will choose. They are like a
|
|
blank tape upon which you write your future. You know when you have entered these periods
|
|
for you feel like a ship adrift on the seas. All the familiar surroundings, experiences, and
|
|
securities in your life are gone. They are not easy times for you, but they are the greatest
|
|
periods for your soul growth. They bring to you periods of inner growth, new directions in your
|
|
life, and a chance to accelerate your magickal growth. In these periods, you are the Captain of
|
|
your Destiny. By the choices you make and the opportunities you take to advance, your future
|
|
is set in motion. These periods allow you to clear up excess karmic debt. They will bring to you
|
|
new friends, teachers, and many changes which if taken advantaged of, will allow you to
|
|
achieve great magickal growth. You must watch for these periods and take all the advantage of
|
|
them you can. You have to be tough. They will test the very essence of that which you are made
|
|
of. You must do the very best you can in all that you do. You must be strong and know that you
|
|
are guided. You never fail in life if you can say that you did your best. You can gain these
|
|
learning experiences in the Astral Realm just as you can learn them on Earth. So why would
|
|
you want to leave the Astral world.
|
|
|
|
In the Astral, life is full of harmony and beauty. It would take a long time to learn even the
|
|
easiest of lessons. So, in order for the Oversoul to grow at a fast rate, it chooses to send a part of
|
|
itself, being you, to learn quickly in the "School of Hard Knocks". You know that you grow
|
|
fastest when you have to learn the hard way. You learn your lessons quickly and well. If life
|
|
was all fun and games you would never learn, so life is not easy. There are some lessons that
|
|
can only be learned on Earth. A hard life may not necessarily be a sign of large karmic debt,
|
|
but a period of quick growth and possible advancement. How many lifetimes does it take
|
|
before you don't have to come back here anymore?
|
|
|
|
No one can really say how many lives it will take except your Oversoul. There is only so much
|
|
that can be learned from each sojourn on Earth. There are so many things that must be
|
|
learned from living on Earth. You keep coming here to the Earth until you have learned all the
|
|
lessons necessary and until the Oversoul is in charge of your life. Each of your lives adds to the
|
|
Eternal Essence which is your Oversoul. Yet this idea of reincarnation or the returning to life
|
|
on Earth time and time again scares many.
|
|
|
|
They don't like reincarnation because they are afraid that they will lose their individuality.
|
|
Well, you never lose that individuality. Your Oversoul can be compared to a vessel of water. In
|
|
that vessel of water, if you add some red dye the water will appear red add the color yellow and
|
|
you will have orange. Each color is still there but their added essence creates a new whole.
|
|
Thus you add each individuality into the Oversoul. The Oversoul grows and becomes more
|
|
then it just was by that new addition. You are still that individuality but you are in
|
|
cooperative union with all the other parts which make up the sum, which is the Oversoul.
|
|
When you have learned all that must be learned, then you no longer have to return to the Earth.
|
|
You then pass beyond the Astral World when you have learned all that you have to learn there.
|
|
There are many things to learn in the Astral.
|
|
|
|
There is the special group that is responsible for the souls making the transition from the
|
|
Earth to the Astral. There are those who weave the soul fabric for a soul's journey to Earth.
|
|
There are also teachers, doctors, nurses, advisors, and guides to those still living on Earth.
|
|
You can, after gaining all that you must learn in the Astral, die or leave this dimension and go
|
|
on to an even higher realm. You could also go on to a more advanced planet and civilization
|
|
and begin the cycle of life and death there. The variables are endless and the choice of your
|
|
Oversoul. I have referred to the Astral Realm as the Water Realm. In Night Magick, the things
|
|
you will learn of this realm are known as Water Magick.
|
|
|
|
From the beginning, the Ancients have likened the Astral Realm to water because things of the
|
|
Astral involve the emotions. The Astral Body is the body of emotions. You feel and express
|
|
emotions because you have an Astral Body. It is the purpose of Water Magick to help you gain
|
|
control over, and to refine, your Astral Body. The instruction, exercises, and rites are
|
|
presented here to accomplish this purpose. This is the hardest body to gain control over. The
|
|
emotions in most people run wild and out-of-control. People give into their emotions without
|
|
trying to gain any self-control. You have to learn to control your emotions in order to have
|
|
magickal growth. You must make the Astral Body an instrument worthy of the Oversoul. It
|
|
must become an Instrument through which the Oversoul pours out Its Night Energies into the
|
|
world. You must strive at all times to be consciously aware that as you feel and express
|
|
emotions that actually it is the Oversoul who feels and expresses through you. That control
|
|
over your emotions and the expression of Night Force comes only through constant
|
|
communion with your Oversoul. Strive for this communion at all times. You are the Oversoul
|
|
in emotional expression here on Earth. Through the Oversoul you will succeed. Let's begin
|
|
immediately learning exercises for emotional control and magickal advancement.
|
|
|
|
22. The Astral Body and Exercises for Emotional Control
|
|
|
|
On each realm of life that the Oversoul lives on there is a necessity for a vehicle made up of that
|
|
realm's essence in order for the Oversoul to find expression in that realm. The vehicle you are
|
|
most familiar with is the physical body. It is made up of dense physical matter. You know
|
|
from earlier discussions that there is a large amount of space between all the molecules of the
|
|
physical body. Interspaced in the physical body can be found the Astral molecules which
|
|
make up the Astral Body.
|
|
|
|
In the Astral Realm, your Astral Body and all the Astral surroundings are as solid and real to
|
|
you as is your physical body and surroundings, when you are in the physical realm. The Astral
|
|
Body is much more refined, and vibrating at a higher vibration, then is the physical body. The
|
|
Astral Body has the same identical form as your physical body. When you are in the Astral
|
|
Realm though, your Astral Body is very beautiful and without imperfections. There are no
|
|
signs of ageing as there are in the physical world. The Astral form is very beautiful and the
|
|
face is of exquisite beauty. There is no ugliness or lack of harmony in the Astral. The Astral
|
|
Body exists simultaneously with the physical body and all other bodies as well. While you are
|
|
in the physical body, the Astral Body is the body through which you feel. It is the body through
|
|
which the Oversoul impresses and communicates with you.
|
|
|
|
At night, when you sleep, it is the body through which you experience dreams. Dreams are
|
|
often distortions of your experiences in the Astral Realm. The Astral Body is the body of
|
|
emotions. The Astral Body can be likened to an emotion magnet. When you express an
|
|
emotion, you actually charge the surrounding Astral material with that emotion. You have
|
|
experienced this happening.
|
|
|
|
For example, when you have gotten someone angry, you can actually feel the atmosphere
|
|
around that person become alive with anger. You have also seen this when someone expresses
|
|
love for another. The Astral material which surrounds you and the physical world is made up
|
|
of charged Astral Energy. For the Earth, this energy is of a dense nature.
|
|
|
|
There are all kinds of emotional energies which make up the astral material around the Earth.
|
|
These energies range from love to hate. On the Earth you can have inharmony and discord and
|
|
harmony and accord. This is what is meant by dense. You can express any emotions while on
|
|
Earth.
|
|
|
|
When you express an emotion, such as hate, the energy which is of like quality in the Astral is
|
|
attracted to you. You can see that your hate, added to the greater hate which is surrounding you
|
|
only makes your hatred more intense. You can then become consumed with hate, so much so,
|
|
that you may lose control and seriously hurt through that hate. Long after the hate seems to
|
|
have left you, it still remains within your Astral Aura. The slightest thing can trigger again
|
|
this hate reaction and more hate energy will be generated. This is what happens from a lack of
|
|
emotional control.
|
|
|
|
As I've said, the world as a whole is made up of many kinds of emotional energies. The energies
|
|
are there to use and express with control. Without control, you become a pawn for domination
|
|
by the emotional energies surrounding you. You must begin by learning to refine your Astral
|
|
Body. To learn to place it under the control of your Oversoul. Let me introduce some exercises
|
|
which will help you gain self-control.
|
|
|
|
Begin by deliberately slowing yourself down. When you drive on the road always let the other
|
|
person go first. Slow down when you drive. If you will drive the speed limit, or five miles an
|
|
hour below it, you will be passed by all. When you walk do it slowly. Let others enter a building
|
|
or room ahead of yourself. The idea is to slow down. This is the first exercise and the next
|
|
involves your use of meditation.
|
|
When you are in meditation, visualize a cleansing energy moving through your Astral Body
|
|
and Night Centers. See that energy cleansing all emotional energy and replacing it with the
|
|
Night Force. Visualize bliss, peace, and ecstasy filling your entire being. Next, visualize any
|
|
act which you know produces an out- of-control emotional response within yourself. See that
|
|
event occurring and you remaining in perfect control. Do this with all events and slowly you
|
|
will gain control. Learn to disassociate from an emotional world of chaos.
|
|
|
|
The world rids itself of an over abundance of chaotic energies through natural means. These
|
|
include such events as hurricanes, tornados, earthquakes, floods, and violent storms. They
|
|
are the world's safety valves when the human emotional energies become too much. You can
|
|
help to prevent these occurrences by correcting your own energy production. In meditation,
|
|
you can visualize the entire world and do for it what you did for yourself above. See that
|
|
cleansing energy fill the world. See the emotional energies of humankind balanced and in
|
|
order. If you will do this daily the world will become a more stable environment. This is your
|
|
first step on the Road of Water Magick. Your next involves the Astral Aura and its relationship
|
|
to colors.

|
23. Astral Aura, Color, and Exercises
|
|
|
|
Around you, shaped like an egg, is the electromagnetic energy known as the aura. Each body
|
|
produces its own aura. The most studied aura is the product of the Astral Body. I will discuss
|
|
the astral aura, its relationship to colors, and exercises for seeing and strengthening the aura.
|
|
|
|
The aura surrounds your body like an egg with the point at the feet. In the average individual
|
|
the aura extends approximately twelve to eighteen inches around the body. As you develop
|
|
magickally the aura enlarges. The electromagnetic energy is perceived by the Night Eye as
|
|
color.
|
|
|
|
In the Astral aura, these colors reflect the emotions which make up the individual. The colors
|
|
of the aura generally extend up to the eyes with the halo region just beyond that. Out of the top
|
|
of the head extends a fountain of energy in the more advanced soul. This halo region is the
|
|
strongest region of energy and is the easiest to see using your Night Eye. On the outer fringes of
|
|
the aura is the Auric Sheath.
|
|
|
|
This is a skin-like film and completely encloses the aura. On the auric sheath, which can be
|
|
compared to a translucent screen, the subconscious mind projects a variety of thought
|
|
pictures. On this screen can be seen images of thoughts and even past life images. Before you
|
|
learn to see the aura, let's look at what the auric colors reveal about people.
|
|
|
|
To begin with, some of the colors seen reflect current emotional expression. For example,
|
|
anger will flash into the aura as a deep, dark blackish-red. This color will generally last only
|
|
as long as a person feels the emotion, although residuals of this anger will remain for
|
|
sometime. The second kind of colors seen reflect long standing emotional states. You'll
|
|
remember in the last topic that the emotional energy produced by your Astral Body was a
|
|
magnetic attracter for similar energy.
|
|
|
|
For example, if you become angry a great deal, then this energy tends to concentrate in your
|
|
aura. The concentration tends to increase for surrounding anger energy is attracted to the
|
|
anger energy already in your aura. Thus, you will see a heavy concentration of blackish-red in
|
|
your aura which remains there over long periods of time. It won't dissipate so long as you
|
|
continue to create this energy. This applies to all kinds of emotional energy.
|
|
|
|
There are seven basic colors in the aura. They are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and
|
|
violet. All the colors and their shades indicate a particular emotion or something about the
|
|
character of an individual. Take each color and try to learn as much about it as it pertains to
|
|
people. Some things you will learn about colors will come from your experiences over the
|
|
years. Colors can first be broken down into two main groups. The red, orange, yellow group
|
|
are full of energy. They represent people who are vibrant. These are people who are extroverts.
|
|
They are the worlds' socialites. The second group, green, blue, indigo, and violet are the
|
|
introverts. These are the quiet, less social people. They are more concerned with their
|
|
interests then those of the world.
|
|
|
|
The color red rules the physical world. It is the color of Earth's fertility. It is the color of
|
|
activity and creativeness. When seen as a clear, bright red in the aura it signifies people who
|
|
possesses the attributes of ambition, leadership, sociability, and strong character. It indicates
|
|
force, vigor, and vitality in people. They will have a strong sex drive. They will be pioneers.
|
|
They will love adventure and have a great need for new friends and new things. These are very
|
|
aggressive people. This does lead to some problems.
|
|
|
|
Red makes people very impulsive. They are apt to be abrupt and impatient in all things. They
|
|
are very earthy in their ways. This is the person with clear, bright red in their aura. But there
|
|
are many modifications to the color red that can be see in the aura. Dark red indicates a deep
|
|
passion or emotion within. A person who is sometimes domineering and brash. A light red
|
|
indicates irritability, nervousness, and one who is excitable. A bright red flashing on a black
|
|
background indicates extreme anger arising from hatred and malice. A brick red is for conceit
|
|
and reddish brown is for deceit. A dark scarlet is for the strongest, sensual love. A coral color
|
|
pink is for immaturity in teenagers; childishness and insecurity in adults. A clear, rose pink
|
|
is for a friendly, selfless loving person. The people who have red in the best and clearest colors
|
|
are leaders of the world. They are one-pointed, high spirited, and seek after what they want on
|
|
their high driving force. These are people of high energy and a color you could use some of in
|
|
your aura. This is the color of creation.
|
|
|
|
The color orange is related in some ways to the color red. The color orange is formed by the
|
|
blending of the red and yellow colors. It is the color of vitality. When this color is found in the
|
|
aura it indicates people who are in good health and full of vitality. Orange indicates that they
|
|
are considerate towards others. They are the humanitarian. It can further indicate people
|
|
who are creative, even to the extent of genius. This is a social person. Again, you see the red
|
|
nature of this color. These are people who like to get along with others and be liked in return.
|
|
They like to lead an adventurous life. They look for events in their lives which offer
|
|
excitement. They are lovers of freedom and look forward to all that is new. Shades of orange
|
|
represent many things.
|
|
|
|
A dark orange indicates one full of self-pride. A brownish orange represents one who is lazy.
|
|
It could also indicate someone who is subject to kidney trouble. If muddy and cloudy orange is
|
|
present in the aura it indicates a person of low intellect. But yellowish golden orange in the
|
|
aura shows self-control and efficiency in all things. I have indicated what orange can mean
|
|
when seen in the aura. Let's go a bit further and see what orange induced into your aura
|
|
through meditation can do for you.
|
|
|
|
The color orange is a color which can induce change into your system. It is an energy for
|
|
dealing with problems which can be changed to a more positive situation. For example, let's
|
|
say you have an inferiority problem. You always feel unmatched towards any problem. You
|
|
perhaps have a low opinion of yourself and never feel able to deal with life. The orange light
|
|
can change this attitude. It can make you feel free of limitations. It will add zest and optimism
|
|
in your life. Orange helps to induce change into your thinking processes so that you can
|
|
assimilate new ideas. It also induces stability in your thinking. As you will recall, orange is
|
|
made up of two colors. The first was red and the second is yellow.
|
|
|
|
Yellow is the color of the mind. It signifies all there is in relation to intelligence. In the aura, a
|
|
bright, clear yellow represents good mental capabilities. This color is very prominent in the
|
|
halo region. An excess of this color denotes people who spend almost all their time after
|
|
mental pursuits. These people have very quick minds. They are able to realize their mental
|
|
capabilities. They have a desire to help other people through the products of their mental
|
|
abilities. They do tend to be shy and slightly introverted. They control their anger easily.
|
|
They are the concrete thinker. They deal in hard physical realities. This is a good color for
|
|
scientists and professors. If the colors are of a softer, paler shades, then this is good for the
|
|
writer, artist, and all creative workers. Diffused yellow, in the aura, indicates people who are
|
|
tactful, cheerful, and use discrimination in all they do. They do not worry about mundane
|
|
things. They are generally happy, friendly, and helpful to others. If the yellow is muddy,
|
|
mustard yellow it shows craftiness. A grayish cast to the yellow shows mental cunning. A
|
|
greenish yellow aura it indicates jealousy. Pinkish yellow shows astuteness in people. A
|
|
dingy yellow shows cowardice and reddish yellow shows mental, moral, and physical
|
|
timidity. Yellow induced into the physical body leads to the regeneration of the human cells
|
|
keeping the body in beauty and health. Yellow effects the Astral Body by inducing a state of
|
|
emotional well-being. It further helps the mental capabilities by sharpening them and
|
|
improving the memory. It will make the mind quicker and able to more easily assimilate new
|
|
material. Yellow qualities help to produce the next color.
|
|
|
|
Green is the color of Earth. It is the garment that clothes the Goddess/God of Earth. This is the
|
|
color which symbolizes balance, harmony, and abundance. In the Night World, this is the
|
|
color of balance and harmony. In the physical world, it is the color of success and prosperity.
|
|
If this color is a pure, emerald green, with just a touch of blue, it is the color of healing. This
|
|
color can be found in the aura of doctors and nurses. Green is also found in the auras of
|
|
teachers. Green in the aura generally indicates people of peace and harmony. They are the
|
|
good neighbor and active in all community projects. They are people who have a strong inner
|
|
faith in themselves and humankind. It is a color representing generosity and sympathy
|
|
towards all of humankind. If there is a light green present it shows prosperity and success. A
|
|
middle green denotes adaptability and versatility. An excess of green indicates people who are
|
|
very individualistic and independent. Clear green denotes sympathy and dark green indicates
|
|
deceit. Olive green shows treachery and a double nature. Next we have blue.
|
|
|
|
Blue is the color of the Sky World. This is the color denoting peace and calm. In the aura, the
|
|
deeper the shade of blue the deeper the nature of the individual. Blue is a good color regardless
|
|
of its darkness. Pale blue is an indication of people who are trying to grow emotionally. They
|
|
may be struggling with who they are and what they should do in life. As the blue deepens so
|
|
does their emotional maturity. They are closer to knowing who they are. They are closer to
|
|
seeing the true purpose of their life. They are people who are more dedicated and work harder
|
|
in life. The deep shades of blue indicate people who have found their quest.
|
|
|
|
They are people actively involved in their quest. They know their purpose in life and actively
|
|
seek to complete it. They are totally immersed in the magickal quest. People with blue
|
|
predominate in their auras are generally very calm individuals. They seek the contemplative
|
|
life and friends of like nature. They are not akin to the social set. They can be very
|
|
temperamental when their calm is disrupted. They are easy people to get along with and are
|
|
very thoughtful. They are sensitive people towards their surroundings and other people. They
|
|
enjoy times of intimacy with close friends and love the quiet and solitude. In the aura, a deep
|
|
and clear blue indicates one of pure magickal devotion. A pale and etherial blue shows
|
|
devotion to a noble idea. A bright blue shows one given to loyalty and sincerity. The sixth
|
|
color is indigo.
|
|
|
|
Indigo is the color of the true seeker on the magickal path. They are one dedicated to the
|
|
magickal quest and only the magickal quest. People with indigo predominate in their aura are
|
|
the ones who aim at the stars and succeed for they combine the ideal with the practical. They
|
|
have developed a magickal maturity which will carry them unto their ultimate goal; the goal
|
|
of Night Consciousness. The final color to study is violet. Violet is the highest vibration of
|
|
color that can be seen in the aura. The souls who have this color in predominance are very
|
|
rare indeed. They are supersensitive and will hold to their ideals even at the cost of personal
|
|
suffering. All the great works of art owe their realization to the souls who have this color in
|
|
their aura. Violet is the stimulator of ideals and provides nourishment for the brain cells in
|
|
the upper brain which gives greater magickal understanding. They are people of a mature, well-
|
|
rounded personality. They are strong in character with sound judgement in all things. They
|
|
have excellent mental abilities and strong reasoning capabilities. They have the highest sense
|
|
of personal integrity. People are strongly attracted to them. They are introspective and
|
|
temperamental. They can be easily irritated because of their sensitivity. They enjoy the
|
|
refinements of life, but can easily forego these and endure the most austere of lives, if it will
|
|
serve their purpose in attaining their goals. So far, I have said a great deal about the colors of
|
|
the aura itself. This won't help you, if you can't see them.
|
|
|
|
To be able to see the aura you will need to go back to the topic on seeing the Etheric (Topic 17). If
|
|
you have been studying and practicing seeing the etheric, then you will soon be able to see the
|
|
Astral aura. The aura is not easy to see. The colors in the aura are of a much higher vibration
|
|
then the energies of the Etheric, and this requires that you have greater development of the
|
|
Night Eye. It requires that you do not become impatient and give up. The lower colors, those
|
|
from red to yellow, will be the easiest to see. The higher colors may elude you for some time. Do
|
|
not forget that you can also see thought images or in other words pictures projected onto the
|
|
auric screen. The procedures for seeing the Astral aura are identical for seeing the Etheric.
|
|
|
|
It is best to begin with a period of meditation before trying to see the aura so that you will be in
|
|
the highest of magickal states and awareness. All of this will take time and practice on your
|
|
part but the effort is well worth it. You will help your magickal development and learn more
|
|
about people. You will come to know people for what they truly are inside when you can see
|
|
their auras. The second exercise involves strengthening the aura.
|
|
|
|
To strengthen the aura, you must first cross your wrists and your ankles. This will complete
|
|
your bodily circuit and prevent your energies from being dissipated. You must also slow down
|
|
and deepen your breathing. A few minutes of Night Breathing would be excellent. You should
|
|
then see added energy flowing down your silver cord, from your Oversoul, adding tremendous
|
|
Power to your aura. This will aid you when dealing with others who try to exert their own aura
|
|
against you. This often takes place between people in business who are negotiating a contract
|
|
between themselves. It will also aid you in trying to see someone else's aura along with your
|
|
own. If you are trying to view another person's aura, and they are practicing with you, have
|
|
them do this too. You will find you can see it much easier and more clearly. The progression of
|
|
the colors from red to violet marks the road of a Night Magician's journey.
|
|
|
|
You must develop the highest qualities and characteristics of each color. Ultimately, you must
|
|
master each. Through mastery of the qualities embodied in the colors and their energy added
|
|
to your aura, you will see yourself progressing towards Night Consciousness. As you learn to
|
|
see your aura, you can identify the colors and the character they represent. If they are not of
|
|
the highest standard then you can work for their improvement. Again, strive to achieve
|
|
mastery over self. Embody within yourself the highest qualities of the colors. The next subject
|
|
is intricately related to auras and colors. It is the Higher Night Centers.
|
|
|
|
24. The Higher Night Centers and Exercises
|
|
|
|
In topic seventeen, you looked at the purely physical aspects of the Night Centers. Here, you are
|
|
going to examine the magickal aspects of all seven. You will discover the powers that will
|
|
become yours to use as each Night Center begins to function within you. You will see how
|
|
colors are related to each Night Center and learn an important exercise to help advance the
|
|
opening of the Night Centers. Finally, you will examine and perform an exercise that will
|
|
release the Night Energy through the Night Centers into your world.
|
|
|
|
First, let's have a quick review of what you learned in topic seventeen. You were able to locate
|
|
the Night Centers in relation to the physical organs. The first and lowest was located at the
|
|
base of the spine in relation to the gonads. The second was located over the spleen/pancreas
|
|
and the third over the navel area or solar plexus. The fourth is located at the heart level. The
|
|
fifth at the throat. The sixth at the brow level and the seventh at the crown of the head. The
|
|
Etheric Centers have a role in your life which extends beyond the physical plane and your
|
|
physical bodies. You saw that the centers are for the purpose of keeping all planes in
|
|
communication with each other. As you grow magickally, the Night Centers begin to unfold
|
|
more and release their energies into your life. As these centers unfold, you become aware of the
|
|
higher things on those realms. As you develop magickally, all Night Centers on all realms
|
|
evolve and receive continually higher energies which pour into your lives. This releases
|
|
abilities and powers into your life not normally present in the lesser evolved. What are the
|
|
abilities and powers of each awakening Night Center, and what do they mean to you?
|
|
|
|
Let me begin by saying, "DO NOT FORCE YOUR DEVELOPMENT!" As you proceed in this topic, I
|
|
will cover the powers which will awaken in you as you develop magickally and the Night
|
|
Centers begin to open. In the unevolved, only the minimum of energy flows through the Night
|
|
Centers to the physical body so that there is life. But as you develop magickally, the centers
|
|
evolve and the Oversoul is able to send more of Its Energies through you. As long as you
|
|
develop along magickal lines, the Oversoul will send ever greater Energies through you. But do
|
|
not practice any form of Night Meditation, or Yoga, or whatever, which will force the
|
|
development of the base Night Center. This is the seat of the Earth Fire. In the eastern
|
|
languages, it is referred to as the Kundalini. The Earth Fire is Life. It is the Energies of Life
|
|
itself. This Energy lies in the base Night Center of all planes. It is a powerful and special
|
|
Energy which when released, will surge upward through the Night Centers and awaken each of
|
|
them to their fullest extent. Only if you are fully and magickally developed and have special
|
|
guidance from a magickal teacher of the Higher Realms will you survive such a forced
|
|
awakening. For example, the Earth Fire, on its way up, could very easily tear through tissue
|
|
and destroy various organs and cause physical death. This is the least that could happen!
|
|
|
|
The second Night Center is concerned in its undeveloped state with sensual gratification,
|
|
sexual desires, and reproduction. If the Fire is unleashed while the Night Center is magickally
|
|
undeveloped, then all the bad traits of this center will be extremely heightened which could
|
|
result in uncontrollable, depraved, sexual conduct and harm to others. This forced awakening
|
|
could cause insanity. Allow the Earth Fire to awaken inside of you, naturally, as the result of
|
|
your magickal development. Grow magickally and the base Night Center will awaken in you,
|
|
as you are ready to handle the power that is contained within it. You will be shown how to
|
|
unfold the upper Night Centers but allow the base center to unfold of itself. It will awaken
|
|
naturally and easily as you unfold magickally. When this base Night Center has fully
|
|
awakened, you will become the Oversoul. You will be a Night Magician of the highest degree. In
|
|
the beginning of your development, this center will glow with a reddish light. When you have
|
|
achieved Night Consciousness it will glow with an intense dark light of incredible power.
|
|
|
|
The second Night Center relates to your passions. The deeper your passions are and
|
|
involvement in lust and sexual gratification the darker the red of this center's light. As you
|
|
develop magickally, a dark light begins to be added to the red till the center is all aglow in the
|
|
Night. In its highest development, this Night Center will allow one to overcome disease, old
|
|
age, and eventually physical death. This is a great center of vitality. It absorbs the orange
|
|
light and distributes the energies throughout one's being. As this Night Center begins to
|
|
awaken, you will be able to remember journeys taken into the Astral Realm at night. Upon
|
|
awakening in the morning, you will begin to have vague recollections of what they did in the
|
|
Astral that night as their body slept. You will probably have the feeling of flying while in the
|
|
Astral Realm.
|
|
|
|
The third Night Center as it awakens will give you the feeling of an awareness of Astral
|
|
presences. You will become very conscious and sensitive to all manner of psychic and Astral
|
|
influences. Some of these influences may feel good, while others may induce in you a sense of
|
|
fear. On the lowest levels, this center is associated with power, mastery, and ego control. This
|
|
is the center for engrossment in material matters and their control. On the highest levels, this
|
|
center will be able to help you achieve strong magickal rapport with your fellow Astral
|
|
brothers. This center is used to contact Astral entities. This Night Center should be
|
|
surrounded in the Night Pillar such that the contact remains a contact and does not allow the
|
|
Astral entities control over your bodily mechanism.
|
|
|
|
The next Night Center is the crossroad for all centers. This is the fourth Night Center and it is
|
|
located over the heart. As this center begins to open on the etheric level, you will begin to have
|
|
an emotional rapport with others. You will be able to know and feel the emotions of others
|
|
around you. You will have empathy with them on all levels of feeling, to include that of feeling
|
|
their pains as your pains. Located within this Night Center is the "Heart of the Oversoul". This
|
|
is the anchor within your magickal being placed there by your Oversoul. It is around this
|
|
miniature dark star that all that you are is gathered. You can liken it to a small miniature
|
|
Oversoul. It is the embryo of your Oversoul beginning. As you begin on the path of Night
|
|
Magick and continue to grow magickally, you will see this embryo begin to grow into a small
|
|
child of the Oversoul. The farther along you develop, the child will continue to develop and
|
|
grow, until you gain Night Consciousness and the Oversoul within you is a full adult. This
|
|
center actually does exist and can be seen in meditation. You will learn to do this in a later
|
|
topic. It is the focal point in your world where you, as a Night Magician, can go and meet your
|
|
Oversoul. In this center's fullest development, the Power of your Oversoul will pour out from
|
|
you. Through the Energy pouring out of you there will be nothing you cannot do. This is the
|
|
Center of the Night in which you move and have your being.
|
|
|
|
Through the fifth Night Center, you gain the ability for clairaudience. Clairaudience is the
|
|
ability to hear voices in the Astral Realm. You will have the sensation of hearing those on the
|
|
other side, as you can hear those on this side of life. You may also be able to hear the "Music of
|
|
the Night Spheres". As this center continues to develop, you will be able to clothe your thoughts
|
|
in form. The thoughts you generate with your mind, through this center, will be able to take on
|
|
direction and energy and go forth and do as directed. Through the development of this center,
|
|
you will achieve strong will power which will see you through difficult tasks. Through this
|
|
center, you will achieve true mastery over yourself and life. This is only, though, when you
|
|
link up this center with that of the heart. Together, these centers in unison can do anything.
|
|
|
|
In Night Magick, the sixth center is the Night Eye. As this center begins to develop, you first
|
|
perceive Astral shadows. You will often see nothing more then clouds of color. As the Night
|
|
Eye continues to develop, you will be able to see Astral people, landscape, and symbols. When
|
|
the Night Eye is fully developed, you will be able to have true seeing which you call
|
|
clairvoyance. Clairvoyance is the ability to see and know Truth in all its forms. It is seeing
|
|
and knowing as the Oversoul within you sees and knows. You will be able to see the past and
|
|
present. You will be able to see anyplace at anytime and be able to enlarge, in the physical
|
|
world, matter ranging in size from small to microscopic. In the future, you will be able to see
|
|
the probabilities of what might happen. In the future, there is little which must happen, and a
|
|
great deal which can change according to your actions. Thus, according to the way things seem
|
|
to be forming you can see what will probably happen.
|
|
The seventh center is the link between your mind and that of your Oversoul. In the beginning,
|
|
as this center begins to open, it allows for partial consciousness when you are in the Astral
|
|
world. As this center unfolds, your consciousness will be more complete, and you will perceive
|
|
the Astral Realm as clearly as you do the physical world. You will never know any cessation
|
|
of consciousness whether you are in the physical world or the Astral world. As you grow more
|
|
and more dedicated to doing the Soul's Will this Night Center will continue to open on Higher
|
|
Realms allowing more and more Magickal Energy to be released into your everyday world. You
|
|
will become more in tune with what your Higher Self would have you do in this world. When
|
|
this center has developed far enough, in conjunction with the heart Night Center, the Oversoul
|
|
Child will be born within you. When this Night Center has opened completely, your aura and
|
|
your word will be filled with Night Energies and the aura will glow with a brilliant radiance of
|
|
the Night. From what has just been said, there can be seen a relationship between the Night
|
|
Centers and colors.
|
|
|
|
Each Night Center, in its pure and developed state, vibrates to a particular color. The base
|
|
Night Center vibrates to the color red. The spleen/pancreas center vibrates to the color orange.
|
|
The third center, located over the solar plexus, vibrates to the color yellow. The heart center
|
|
vibrates to the color green and the throat center to that of blue. The brow center, Night Eye,
|
|
vibrates to that of indigo, and the highest of Night Centers, the crown, vibrates to the color
|
|
violet. As all the Night Centers are developing magickally, they will attain to the purest of
|
|
colors. As the Night Centers reach perfection, they will open, and the colors will flow till they
|
|
can be perceived as the color of the Night. Let's look at an exercise which can be done to
|
|
develop the Night Centers so that they will radiate in the Night and permit your the Night
|
|
Powers to flow through you.
|
|
|
|
First, refer back to topic sixteen. In that topic, we discussed meditating on the desired color
|
|
you needed for healing and projecting it into your Night Pillar. You prepared yourself for
|
|
meditation with a sheet of color paper, which would help you concentrate, and draw to you, the
|
|
desired color energy that you wished to use. Let's again do the same technique, only this time,
|
|
instead of sending the color into your Pillar, you will send it into the specific Night Center you
|
|
wish to stimulate.
|
|
|
|
You should first see the specific Night Center, in your mind, and feel that great wheel of Night
|
|
Energy slowly rotating, and see the specific color desired flowing into the Night Center and
|
|
stimulating it. See the center whirling faster and faster as the result of the inflow of color
|
|
energy. See the center becoming a pure channel for the color energy and the impure energies
|
|
leaving it. Further, see the added Energies of the Oversoul flowing into the center via the silver
|
|
cord. Do this with all of the Night Centers except the base Night center. This is an excellent
|
|
exercise will actually bring the Night Energies from the Higher Realms and then release them
|
|
into the physical world around you. Stand with your feet together, and your arms and hands
|
|
outstretched, as you form a living X. Palms should be facing outward. Now you must become
|
|
very calm and silent within. See yourself as the Oversoul on Earth. See yourself as a Night
|
|
Being. Now, you will bring into your being Two Great Energies. Through the soles of your feel,
|
|
you will see the Earth Energies rise up, and at the same time, you will be drawing into you the
|
|
Night Force flowing from your Oversoul down through the Crown Night Center. These Energies
|
|
will meet in the heart Night Center. As they meet, see these Energies going out, under the
|
|
direction of your Oversoul and the Night Gods, healing, cleansing, purifying, and touching the
|
|
Earth. If you know someone in special need of the Energies, see them flowing to her or him. As
|
|
you continue to practice this exercise the flow of the Energies will become stronger and
|
|
stronger. You will be of true service to the Night Guild. You will truly be a Night Magician
|
|
when the Night Centers radiate in the night of your world. I said earlier, that as the Crown
|
|
Night Center begins to open, you have partial awareness of the Astral Realm. Yet, your
|
|
awareness is often distorted. One state of awareness that you have of your Astral journeys is
|
|
the dream state. In our next discussion, you will enter the Dream Realm.
|
|
|
|
25. The Dream Realm
|
|
|
|
There are a great many books on the market dealing with the topic of dreams. Many of these
|
|
books list the symbols which you see in your dreams and then tell you what they mean, or
|
|
what is going to happen because of what you dreamed. But interpreting dreams is just not that
|
|
easy. Dreams are a very personal thing to each of us. A dog, seen in one dream, may mean one
|
|
thing to me and a totally different thing to you.
|
|
|
|
To begin with, there are two basic types of dreams. The first type of dream is a common
|
|
occurrence in most people's lives. This is the dream when upon awakening you have only vague
|
|
recollections of what transpired. These are dreams which you rapidly forget what took place.
|
|
They are very confusing dreams and are the mental garbage which your mind gets rid of as you
|
|
sleep. The second type of dream is what you need to pay attention to.
|
|
|
|
These are dreams which you remember very vividly upon awakening. You see images, and
|
|
possibly colors, vividly. You feel that you were actually there and taking part in what was
|
|
going on. You have a sharp recollection of what took place and you do not easily forget what
|
|
transpired after awakening. If this is the kind of dream that has occurred in your life, then
|
|
you are remembering an actual experience that has taken place in the Astral Realm. You can
|
|
also be witnessing a message that is meant to help guide your life. The first type of dream you
|
|
can forget about. This is just your mind getting rid of a lot of mental garbage and worries
|
|
pressed upon it, or a distortion of a journey in the Astral Realm. The second type is important.
|
|
You have often heard of the phrase, "sleep on it", in connection with solving a problem that you
|
|
cannot seem to resolve.
|
|
|
|
When you sleep on a problem, you are out in the Astral Realm and can meet with people on that
|
|
side of life and receive an answer to your problem. The answer generally comes to you in the
|
|
form of a dream. There are other things that can be done in the use of your dreams.
|
|
|
|
Let's say that you have an important interview with a client coming up. The night before, you
|
|
will need a picture of your client that you're going to meet. Preferably, this should be a
|
|
physical picture or a strong mental picture will suffice. Then before going to sleep, you should
|
|
concentrate on the picture of your client and think of the thing you would like your client to
|
|
do. Think and say the things to your client that will persuade her/him your way. Then put it
|
|
out of your mind and just know, that as you sleep, you will meet your client in the Astral and
|
|
this will help prepare your way in tomorrow's meeting. You will be successful if you do this.
|
|
You can see that there are endless variations and possibilities in the use of your dreams. You
|
|
can also help improve your dreaming. The first thing you should do in helping yourself in
|
|
dreaming is find out which way you sleep best. The body best picks up magickal currents by
|
|
having the head facing in a certain direction. Practice sleeping with your head pointed say to
|
|
the North and keep a record on how you slept for a week. Then the next week, sleep in a new
|
|
direction and do the recording. You should do this for all four directions. This is the first step
|
|
towards better sleeping and dreaming.
|
|
|
|
To further improve dreaming do the following: when you fall asleep at night, say to yourself
|
|
that you're going to remember all that you dream of clearly and sharply. Say this over and
|
|
over to yourself until you fall asleep naturally. Know that you are going to dream true! Now,
|
|
you will want to keep a diary of your dreams.
|
|
|
|
Keep this diary by your bed along with a pen. Upon awakening from a vivid and true dream,
|
|
record what you saw and the impressions of what it meant to you. If the dream is in a very
|
|
symbolic form, then take that dream into your meditation periods and seek to discover the
|
|
meaning of those symbols. As said before, symbols are a very personal thing to you and their
|
|
meaning lies with the Oversoul and Night Teacher. You may want to record these symbols on a
|
|
three by five card and arrange them alphabetically. Symbolism is used a great deal of the time
|
|
by your Oversoul for communication with you. Symbolism is used so that you will spend more
|
|
time in communication with your Night Teacher and Oversoul in seeking an answer. Dreams
|
|
are important. It is important for you to become familiar with your dreams and their
|
|
meaning. Dreams are one means by which the Oversoul may speak with you and give
|
|
important information to guide your life. This could be from warnings concerning your health
|
|
or well-being to job assistance or ways to improve your practice of Night Magick. Another
|
|
mode of communication is the Oracle, which we will discuss in the next topic, along with a
|
|
discussion of Astral Guides and the use of Trance.
|
|
|
|
26. Astral Guides, Oracleship, and Trance
|
|
|
|
You are never alone in this world. You may feel that you stand on some deserted island in the
|
|
middle of the ocean, yet you should take comfort in the fact that all around you your Guides
|
|
and Teachers are with you each and every moment of the day and night. In addition to
|
|
discussing the Guides, you will also explore communication with the Astral Guides, or
|
|
oracleship, and a special state of consciousness, the Trance. To begin with, let's take a close
|
|
look at who your Guides and Teachers really are?
|
|
|
|
Your Guides and Teachers are actually two distinct groups of magickal helpers. The Guides are
|
|
those who have remained on the Astral Realm and assist you from that dimension. They are
|
|
composed of both relatives and friends of your past lives who are gaining valuable experience
|
|
and magickal growth by assisting you on the physical plane. You should remember that their
|
|
personalities are still very much akin to the ones they had in their last life. There are
|
|
Specialist who come under this group of Guides. They assist you with special guidance if you
|
|
are undertaking a special task and need their magickal expertise. They assist those in the
|
|
process of transition from physical to Astral living. They are the Astral doctors and nurses.
|
|
The other group is made up of those I term Teachers.
|
|
|
|
They are a magickally advanced group of Beings. They administer to you from a much higher
|
|
realm of existence. The Realm of the Soul. They are usually with you from the beginning of
|
|
time and follow you long into your magickal development. As you reach a special development
|
|
in your magickal path, the rank of the Teacher continues to advance until you work with your
|
|
Night Teacher. I will discuss the Night Teachers in a later topic.
|
|
|
|
Everyone on this planet has been led by inspiration at some time or another, but most have
|
|
never taken the time to try and understand where that inspiration came from. Inspiration has
|
|
its origins from two different sources. The first is your Oversoul and is of the highest form of
|
|
inspiration. The second is guidance given to you through your Magickal Guides and Teachers.
|
|
You can receive a closer rapport with your Guides and Teachers by learning to remain in a state
|
|
of inner listening, by remaining in a state of inner awareness, knowing that they are always
|
|
with you and that you can receive from them guidance in all that you do.
|
|
You must begin by accepting their Presence and knowing that you can communicate with
|
|
them. Whenever you can shut out the outer world and its problems, then can you hear them
|
|
speak to you. You must always carefully weigh what they tell you and know that, ultimately,
|
|
the decision is yours. They never compel you to do anything, but simply guide you as to what
|
|
the probabilities are and then it's your decision. You may be able to hear the Astral message,
|
|
but some are exceptionally good at hearing those from the Astral Realm. These individuals are
|
|
Oracles.
|
|
An Oracle is a person who through a difference in body and brain structure is able to receive
|
|
messages from the Astral with an exceptional clarity. They are individuals with a delicate
|
|
physical and nervous system upon which Astral Spirits may impress the message. The person
|
|
enters an altered state of consciousness, whereby the Guide or Teacher is able to impress upon
|
|
the nervous system the message to be given. The Highest Guide or Teacher also acts as a traffic
|
|
controller regulating which Guide or Teacher will give a message and who will not, through the
|
|
Oracle. The Oracle must remain in a very passive state of mind. The Oracle is only a link
|
|
between this world and that of the Astral. There are degrees of passivity in consciousness for
|
|
the Oracle. The Oracle may retain almost total consciousness while seeing and hearing the
|
|
message, and then again, consciousness may be totally repressed by the Guide or Teacher. This
|
|
total repression of consciousness, in the Oracle, is known as Trance.
|
|
|
|
Trance is an altered state of consciousness, whereby the Oracle's consciousness leaves the body
|
|
and that of a Higher Entity enters into it. Thus, the Higher Entity has free reign to speak and
|
|
act through the body instrument without misinterpretation by the Oracle. In the other form of
|
|
oracleship, the Oracle hears and interprets what s/he sees and in this case s/he does not.
|
|
Generally, for the Oracle in Trance, it seems as if s/he has been pleasantly sleeping. Depending
|
|
on the Oracle's development, s/he can go into Trance on the physical plane and still remain
|
|
conscious and active on the Astral plane, and so can control the type of entity who is giving the
|
|
message through her/his body, to those on the physical plane who are listening. Even if the
|
|
Oracle cannot remain awake in the Astral, there is nothing to fear. If her/his body, emotions,
|
|
and thoughts are one with the Oversoul then nothing can happen to her/him while s/he is in a
|
|
state of Trance. Here is a warning to those who would attempt to practice the state of Trance. If
|
|
you are without fear and know that there is nothing to be afraid of, and live in the Night Pillar
|
|
of the Oversoul, then no harm can befall you. Remember this, keep your thoughts at one with
|
|
the Oversoul and nothing bad will ever happen to you. If you cannot live in this state of being
|
|
then do not try to reach a state of Trance. Otherwise, you are subject to entry and hold by the
|
|
lower mischievous entities. Most people have a safeguard against entering Trance and that is
|
|
falling asleep, but entry and hold is still possible at just the point of falling asleep, and the
|
|
point of awakening. This can only occur when you are attempting to reach the state of Trance.
|
|
This cannot occur if you are just normally going to sleep. Have no fear, but live in the Oversoul
|
|
and no wrong entry can occur to you during the state of Trance. There are several forms of
|
|
Trance.
|
|
|
|
There is the kind, just mentioned above, whereby a Higher Entity uses your body to transmit a
|
|
message to a group of listeners while the Oracle is in a soporific state. There is also what is
|
|
called Night Trance.
|
|
Here the Oracle can be fully conscious and by his own control deliberately enter the state of
|
|
Trance rather then it being induced by the possessing Higher Entity. The next kind is called
|
|
Magician's Trance.
|
|
|
|
Here, the body is very rigid, even to the point of having hard skin. You are still in your body,
|
|
but what you see can be likened to sitting on the highest peak with a telescope. In other word
|
|
wherever you look, you can see what is transpiring. There is no limit as to where or what you
|
|
can see. Time, distance, and/or physical structures are no obstacles to your seeing. The final
|
|
kind is called Trance Projection.
|
|
|
|
Here you leave the body. The flesh remains very limp and the breathing greatly reduced. The
|
|
heart rate is also greatly reduced. Again, there are no limits to where you can see. Everyone, to
|
|
one degree or another can receive messages from the Astral. It is important that everyone
|
|
learn to take time to know and become close to their Guides and Teachers. Their messages of
|
|
guidance and help can completely change the world that you live in. There is no limit to the
|
|
aid that they can provide in your world. Take the time to still the mind and body so that you
|
|
may hear the guidance that they have to offer you. It is not essential that you try the states of
|
|
Trance. You should only induce the state of Trance under the guidance of your Magickal
|
|
Teacher. Therefore, I have omitted the how-to instruction for the state of Trance. You should
|
|
not try the different states of Trance unless you are sure of what you're doing and that you're
|
|
entering them with the correct frame of mind and under the proper supervision. Above all
|
|
learn this, "To be still and know the Oversoul." This is the key to Night Magick and Night
|
|
Consciousness. We have been discussing the magickal influence of your Astral Guides and
|
|
Teachers. Yet, they are only one magickal source, out of many, that influence your life.
|
|
Another great source of magickal influence over your emotional and magickal life is the
|
|
Goddess Diana. She is better known to you as the Presence of the Moon.
|
|
|
|
27. The Moon and Its Rites
|
|
|
|
There are many roads of magickal evolution which are filled with excitement, adventure,
|
|
accomplishment, and success by those who travel them. One of these roads is serving as the
|
|
indwelling life force for souls within a moon, planet, or star. The stars, planets, and moons
|
|
are the physical bodies of Great Beings who are on far on the road of magickal evolution. Of all
|
|
these grand Bodies, the one most symbolic of this chapter on Water Magick is the Moon.
|
|
|
|
The Moon of the Earth exerts great influence over the tides of the ocean. You can then extend
|
|
the Moon's influence over the Tides of humankind's emotions. In this topic, you will examine
|
|
this function and the magickal role that the Moon plays in your life. You will also study and
|
|
perform special rites associated with the Moon. Let's begin by looking directly at the magickal
|
|
role of the Moon.
|
|
|
|
You see the Moon because it is lit by the reflected light from the Sun. The Moon is a source of
|
|
Yin Light for it takes the Light of the Sun and transforms it into Yin Light. This Energy is at a
|
|
lesser extent, when the Moon is new, for it reflects lesser quantities of the transformed
|
|
Energies. The Energies of the Moon can help directly in the process of your Oversoul's gaining
|
|
control over your emotions. The Energies of the Moon passing through your Oversoul where in
|
|
turn, they are purified and added to your aura, go on to strengthen and build emotional
|
|
stability. The Energies of the Moon are very powerful and add great Magickal Force to your life
|
|
when purified. The Oversoul, acting as a filter, filters out the impurities of the Moon's Energies
|
|
caused by the grey energies that come from humankind. After filterization, you have the
|
|
Moon's Pure Magickal Energies, and the Moon shines in the night as a Luminous Orb of
|
|
Rarified Power. When your life and aura are illumined with the Yin Light of the Oversoul and
|
|
is in turn magnified by the Moon, a great reflector, then is your Power in the Night multiplied
|
|
to its maximum. You are likened to the Moon, when you, as a Night Magician, use your
|
|
purified Night Consciousness to reflect the Yin Light of the Moon into the world. You are the
|
|
Moon, a reflector of the Night Energies. The time of the New Moon is a time of new beginnings.
|
|
|
|
It is a time when a Night Magician should consecrate and dedicate her/his aspirations and life
|
|
anew unto her/his Oversoul. Thus you celebrate this time with a rite of new beginning. The
|
|
rite unfolds as follows:
|
|
|
|
Make sure your Night Altar is ready except don't fill the chalice with any wine or grape juice.
|
|
Putting on your Night Robe and arming yourself with your Night Weapons place the Night
|
|
Pillar around yourself, the Night Altar, and the world. Put in your right hand the Night Wand;
|
|
face the direction of North which symbolizes the element of Water; and now while making the
|
|
sign of Night Magick, see fig.___, say this solemn invocation to the First of the Four Great
|
|
Beings of the Cosmic Elements: "I invoke the Great Powers of the Cosmic Being of the (insert
|
|
direction) to flow into my being. Fill me with the Cosmic Power of (insert element). Renew me
|
|
in the Power of Night Consciousness. Make me a Being of Cosmic Yin Light. Guide me upon the
|
|
Road of Night Magick." Then face the Night Altar and place a little of the correct element from
|
|
the vile into the chalice. The chalice is symbolic of you and the element representing the
|
|
Cosmic Being. Then face the West and repeat the entire procedure inserting the correct
|
|
direction and selecting the correct element to put into the chalice. Do this for all four
|
|
directions. The correct elements and directions are as follows: water representing Water and
|
|
North; oil representing Air and the West; salt is of the Earth and South; and fire(candle) that of
|
|
Itself and East. Now pickup the candle; make the sign of Night Magick over the chalice; and if
|
|
there is just you, then repeat an invocation of dedication of your life and being to the guidance
|
|
and care of your Oversoul, Night Teacher, and Guides. After this, touch your first two fingers of
|
|
your left hand in the substance of the chalice, and upon your heart make the sign of Night
|
|
Magick and then repeat the Night Invocation on Earth as follows:
|
|
|
|
"Let the Earth be filled with the Presence of the Night. I honor the Presence of the Night in all I
|
|
say and do. By the Night all things are given, by the Night all enemies removed. By the Yin
|
|
Light of the Moon I shall walk the Night Road on Earth in power, and glory and victory forever.
|
|
So be it."
|
|
|
|
After this you will need to hum for ten to thirty minutes. Although you probably know how to
|
|
hum let me make sure. With your lips shut and together make the "mmmm" sound. Hum the
|
|
sound such that eventually you'll feel a resonance building in your head. As you head begins to
|
|
resonate, this resonance will spread over your body and you will begin to feel yourself
|
|
vibrating and pulsating.
|
|
|
|
If there are others doing this with you, then select one to be the officiant. The officiant will do
|
|
all that has been described so far, up to the point of saying the Night Invocation on Earth. Each
|
|
member present will repeat a silent prayer of dedication to her/his life and being, and
|
|
committing it to the guidance and care of her/his Oversoul, Night Teacher, and Guides. After
|
|
this, the officiant will touch her/his first two fingers of her/his left hand in the substance of
|
|
the chalice, and upon each member's heart s/he will make the sign of Night Magick and repeat
|
|
the following: "With the substance of the Four Worlds and the Powers thereof, may you forever
|
|
be guided on the Road of Night Magick and become a Night Magician." Then, repeat the Night
|
|
Invocation on Earth, in unison. Everyone will then hum in unison till stopped by the
|
|
officiant. This is the Rite of the New Moon. A time of joyous, beautiful renewal in Night
|
|
Magick.
|
|
|
|
The next rite is in celebration of the Full Moon. The Full Moon marks the time of realization,
|
|
attainment, and fulfillment. The consecration and deepening within of these aspects is
|
|
celebrated in a very beautiful rite. If there is just you performing this rite, then you will need
|
|
only one small candle on a plate. In addition, you will need two more small plates; one
|
|
containing sage and the other holding your vessel of water. With these things in hand, you are
|
|
now ready to begin.
|
|
|
|
Place these three things on your floor Night Altar, with the candle in the middle, the sage on
|
|
the right, and the water on the left. Place them such that you will be seated facing the North
|
|
with them in front of you. Then before being seated, take the candle in your right hand and
|
|
with your left hand clear the four points of direction. You will begin with the East and move
|
|
counterclockwise making the sign of Night Magick and repeating to each direction: "This way
|
|
is the clear road to Night Magick bathed in the Yin Light of the Full Moon." Now be seated,
|
|
repeat the Night Invocation of the Earth and enter into a deep silence and communion with
|
|
your Oversoul and feel the achievement of knowing and being the Oversoul on Earth. Now take
|
|
a small portion of the sage in your right hand and say, "This is the Spirit of the Night in form
|
|
upon the Earth. It is the Essence of a Night Magician. Honor to the Night Spirit that I have
|
|
achieved all that I AM". Place the sage around the candle. The candle should be lit from the
|
|
beginning of the rite. Next pickup the water in your left hand and repeat "Water is the Night
|
|
Spirit in pure Essence. It is the Power of the Spirit and Life on Earth. I AM the Waters of Life
|
|
and the Night Soul on Earth." Pour the water around and on the sage. Now repeat, "the Night
|
|
Soul united, One and forever, in Spirit, Power, and Life, within that which I am, a Night
|
|
Magician. So be it". Close by humming the "mmmm" sound till you resonate deeply the sound.
|
|
If there is more then one then use the following guidelines.
|
|
|
|
Everyone present will have the same plates and materials before them. Selecting one as
|
|
officiant, s/he will clear the four points following the same procedures outlined earlier. S/he
|
|
will stand in the center of the circle formed by all the celebrants and begin in the East. Then
|
|
everyone should be seated. Hum together after seated. Continue all as the same in unison.
|
|
|
|
The final rite requires nothing other then yourself. Be seated comfortably on the ground at
|
|
eventide, or night, when the light of the Full Moon may fall upon you. Doing this on a
|
|
cloudless night is best. Put the Night Pillar around yourself and all members participating. If
|
|
there are more people doing this then just yourself, then all should face towards the Moon.
|
|
Begin with Night Breathing for a few minutes. Then you will visualize, and all with you, the
|
|
Light of the Full Moon passing through your Oversoul. Know that the Moon's Energy is being
|
|
purified of all the Earth's human dross and is flowing now into your Astral Body and aura. See
|
|
yourself filled with a most intense, pure Yin Light. This Light will give you emotional stability
|
|
and inner strength. Do this, feeling the Night Soul's Presence being magnified within yourself.
|
|
Know that you are the Oversoul.
|
|
|
|
You have learned from the Moon and its cycles, that it represents your beginning upon the path
|
|
of Night Consciousness in its New Moon phase and ends with your fulfillment as the Night
|
|
Soul in the Full Moon phase. Use carefully the Light of the Moon. The Light of the Moon must
|
|
be purified by the Oversoul before it can be accepted into your world. Thus, you must always
|
|
remain in Night Consciousness in order to reflect into your world only the Night Energies. The
|
|
Moon is a very Advanced Being. The Moon is a great reflector of the Yin Light into your world
|
|
during its night. The Goddess Diana is the Master of the Element Water on Earth. Now, you,
|
|
too, will become Master of the Element Water in the next topic.

Water is representative of the Night Spirit. Water is Life and the Night Spirit. I will introduce
|
|
two rites which embody the use of water. Water is a very powerful magnet and container for the
|
|
Night Energies. Water will greatly intensify your drawing power of the Night Force. The first
|
|
rite that I will teach is designed simply to aid your drawing upon, and concentrating the Night
|
|
Force.
|
|
|
|
Begin by obtaining a glass bowl, similar to a mixing bowl, with a large open space at the top.
|
|
The size you will need is based upon the number of people participating with you. You should
|
|
have a bowl set aside for private use and one for group use. When your not using the bowl keep it
|
|
wrapped and in a place so that no one else will disturb it. You will also need three black
|
|
candles, your Night Altar that is close to the floor, and a black cloth to cover the table. Setup
|
|
the Night Altar so that you, or the officiant, when seated at the altar faces North. If there are
|
|
others present then they should be seated around the altar. The Night Altar should be covered
|
|
with the altar cloth. Fill the bowl full of water and place it in the center of the Night Altar.
|
|
Finally, everyone will be seated, but the officiant who will light the three candles and place
|
|
two of them on the outer edges of the group. Now that you have these things setup your ready to
|
|
begin.
|
|
|
|
Light the incense with the third candle; face West of the Night Altar; and with the lit, black
|
|
candle in your right hand and while making the sign of Night Magick with the left hand repeat
|
|
the following invocation: "Let only the Night Spirit remain here and only the Night Spirit go
|
|
out. This room is protected in the Yin Light of the Oversoul. Let the Light of the Night Brethren
|
|
enter here and only the Night Force remain. The first Night Guardian shall remain this way
|
|
and only the Night Spirit's Power will stay. So be it". Now turn counterclockwise to the next
|
|
major direction and repeat again this invocation. Each time preceding it with the sign of
|
|
Night Magick. Do this again in the third major direction, and finally over the Night Altar
|
|
itself. Then take your seat on the floor before the bowl and again surround yourself with the
|
|
Night Pillar. Contact your Oversoul and begin to draw into yourself the Night Force. Then
|
|
reach out and touch the bowl with both your hands, one on each side of the bowl. If this is
|
|
being done as a group, then all will interlock fingers when hands are placed upon the bowl by
|
|
all members present. All should see the Force flowing into themselves, and then into the bowl
|
|
filling the bowl with the Night Force. Continue to do this as long as you, and the members with
|
|
you, feel comfortable and can control the Force. If at anytime you should begin to feel
|
|
uncomfortable, you should stop and again stand and clear all four corners of the room. Then
|
|
rest a while before trying this again. This is a tremendous rite for collecting the Night Force in
|
|
its most concentrated form. After the rite, it is suggested that you obtain clean drinking
|
|
glasses (one for each member present) and dip them into the water of the bowl and drink of it.
|
|
Drink as much water as you can comfortably hold. The water has a great healing and
|
|
energizing effect and will ward off illness for a long time. It is further effective in aiding ailing
|
|
plants and animals. The benefit of the Force, coursing through your body, is cause enough to
|
|
do this as often as possible.
|
|
|
|
In the second rite, in addition to what you have setup, a mirror and two of the following color
|
|
candles: violet, blue, green, yellow, red, and black. This is not a group rite but for you alone.
|
|
Begin this rite the same way you did the first rite, by clearing the four points of the room.
|
|
Setup the bowl of water and a mirror directly behind it. You will use four candles placed upon
|
|
the Night Altar, one on each corner. The two closest to you will be black candles. The other
|
|
two candles' colors depend upon what you are trying to accomplish. When this rite is properly
|
|
setup and performed, you will be able to see your Guides and Teacher and to receive answers to
|
|
questions you put before them. The color combination of the candles is very important.
|
|
|
|
If you wish to have questions answered by no one in particular, then a blue and red candle are
|
|
used. Another strong color combination you can use is red and violet. To contact your Night
|
|
Teacher, the color combination must match their personal harmony and frequency. There is
|
|
a chart located in Appendix B which will give you the proper color combination for the various
|
|
Night Teachers I speak of in this work. For those Night Teachers not listed or if you're not sure
|
|
who yours is, then you can use the blue and red candle combination to find out and also their
|
|
specific color combination to be used in this rite. Here is how to use this rite.
|
|
|
|
Be sure you have cleared the four points in the room and have surrounded yourself in the Night
|
|
Pillar. Otherwise, you will attract the wrong force. Setup the bowl of water with the black
|
|
candles in front and the other two in the rear, (make sure that the four candles can be seen in
|
|
the mirror), and the mirror directly behind the bowl. Light the candles and your ready to
|
|
begin. Meditate upon your Teacher and Guides and upon the fixtures in front of you. Be sure to
|
|
get comfortable, surround yourself in the Pillar of Protection, and relax with Night Breathing.
|
|
Sit directly in front of the Night Altar, such that, you will see the top and surface of the water
|
|
in the mirror. The reflection you should see in the mirror, is the surface of the water and the
|
|
candles. The candles will form a figure 8. The faces of the Teacher, or Guides, will appear in the
|
|
reflection of the water in the mirror, or just above the actual bowl. If at anytime you should
|
|
start to lose the vibration, stand up and again clear the four points and begin at another time.
|
|
Not only will the faces appear in the mirror but also images that will answer your questions. It
|
|
is also possible that you will hear the voice of the Teacher from the image that appears. This is
|
|
very much akin to picture telephones. Your mind should be free of mental garbage and
|
|
worries. You should also be in good overall health. If you seem to fail at first then you know
|
|
that you are making true progress. As with anything, you must practice over and over again to
|
|
achieve true results. If you do so, then you'll achieve the highest results. You have learned so
|
|
much about the Astral Realm. But wouldn't it be great if you could go there and see it for
|
|
yourself? Well if your ready, just turn the page and you'll be on your way.
|
|
|
|
29. Night Projection
|
|
|
|
Perhaps a more familiar term for what you are about to study is Astral Projection or traveling.
|
|
The word "Astral" is derived from the Latin and Greek language which means "of the stars".
|
|
You learned in the beginning of this chapter on Water Magick, that the Astral Body
|
|
interpenetrates the physical body. Your consciousness resides in the physical body during the
|
|
day and by night, when your physical body sleeps, your consciousness resides in the Astral
|
|
Body. People don't remember what takes place during their Astral sojourns because they
|
|
believe that this physical world is the only true reality, and so their mind rationalizes what
|
|
they have seen in the Astral Realm into a distorted dream. But if you truly believe that the
|
|
Astral Realm exists and that you can go there then you will remember what you have seen and
|
|
done in the Astral Realm and remember it upon awakening. Yet, you can go beyond dreaming
|
|
and actually travel there. You can bring back your experiences in the Astral Realm. You can do
|
|
this by learning, consciously, to project yourself into the Astral Realm. This is Astral or Night
|
|
Projection.
|
|
|
|
To begin with, in learning to Night Project consciously, you must learn to have no fear. Fear is
|
|
the greatest destroyer of good results in this work. Fear will prevent you from accomplishing
|
|
anything in Night Magick. So do not be afraid to Night Project. You can not get lost while you
|
|
reside in the Astral Realm. The physical body is firmly attached to the Astral Body by the
|
|
silver cord. No matter where you travel in the Astral Realm, whenever you wish to return to
|
|
the physical body, simply think of yourself there, and you will do so. Why would you want to
|
|
travel in the Astral, in the first place?
|
|
|
|
To begin with you could see how well you're doing so far in your sojourn on Earth. You can
|
|
meet face-to-face with your Guides and Teacher and receive first hand instruction on how to
|
|
solve certain problems. You can receive instruction on how to better your life and access the
|
|
lessons you have learned so far. You can also travel anywhere on the Earth plane you wish to.
|
|
You can see great libraries and be able to read the books contained therein. You could see
|
|
museums and other places of interest. There is no limit to the things you can do while Night
|
|
Projecting. But be warned if you try to go somewhere and invade another's privacy. You are
|
|
liable to receive an "astral shock" and get slammed back into your body with a terrific
|
|
headache. Although the person you visited may not be able to physically see you their
|
|
subconscious will be able to do so and send a strong astral blow to your Astral Body. Its best if
|
|
you don't go where you intuit you shouldn't go. Without fear and listening to your Oversoul for
|
|
guidance your ready to Night Project.
|
|
|
|
First, you should watch your diet before Night Projecting. Try to eat as little fried food as
|
|
possible. Do not travel on a full stomach. You won't get anywhere if you are uncomfortable
|
|
because your stomach is full and in the process of digestion. For about a week prior to actually
|
|
projecting you should prepare yourself mentally by repeating the following invocation, four
|
|
times daily. Do it once in the morning, noon, evening, and before going to bed. The invocation
|
|
is, "On this day ___, I am going to Night Project. I am going to travel in the Astral Realm and
|
|
remember all that I see and do. I will recall all of this after I have returned to my body. This I
|
|
will do and won't fail." On the day you have selected to Night Project be sure and have as
|
|
peaceful and quiet a day as possible. You must try and keep your mind on the subject of Night
|
|
Projecting all that day. You must look forward to going to bed that night with the intentions of
|
|
traveling in the Astral Realm. Now, you need to learn to relax before projecting.
|
|
|
|
Many will say this is easy for them to do, but actually this is not true. True relaxation is an art
|
|
and must be practiced to be mastered. To begin Night Projection, you must be fully relaxed.
|
|
There must not be a tense nerve or muscle in your entire body. When you lay down to project,
|
|
the room must be just right, being neither too cold, or hot, if you are to achieve true relaxation.
|
|
To assist relaxing and projecting, darken the room and secure it from entry by anyone else. In
|
|
no way should there be any way that you can be disturbed. If you are touched, while traveling,
|
|
this could cause harm to your physical body. Further, no one should attempt to try Night
|
|
Projection if they are prone to heart trouble. This is not to scare anyone, but the body should
|
|
be in good health. You should not cover yourself with heavy bedding for this will interfere
|
|
with relaxation and projecting. If you're ready to relax, then let's begin.
|
|
|
|
Turn your consciousness upon your toes. Concentrate mentally on them and see them
|
|
relaxing. See all the tension leaving the toes. Next, work on the foot and see all tension
|
|
leaving it. Do this all the way up one leg and then do it for the other leg. Do not go on till there
|
|
is no tension or tightness in any part of your lower extremities. Then move on to the pelvic
|
|
region and do the same relaxation technique. Then do the arms and each finger, individually,
|
|
till you feel calm and relaxed. The stomach and chest region are next, then on up the neck and
|
|
finally, the head region. Relax the jaw and forehead. Relax each part thoroughly before going
|
|
to the next part. Once you have accomplished this, it is time to relax the mind.
|
|
|
|
In order to relax your mind, allow your thoughts to dwell on a beautiful day with billowy
|
|
clouds in the sky. Take your thoughts and place them on one of those beautiful dark clouds.
|
|
Just relax and drift on the cloud and let your mind forget all its worries. Think of nothing else
|
|
but the deep sensation of peace and floating on the cloud. At this point your eyes should be
|
|
closed. Relax your thoughts and for a few moments try to think of nothing. In Night
|
|
Projection, you are where your thoughts are.
|
|
|
|
The Astral Body looks somewhat like your own physical body so picture it floating about three
|
|
feet above you. You must know that you're actually floating above your physical body. Relax,
|
|
do not force the process, do not strain or induce tenseness in the physical body, and above all,
|
|
do not jerk. If your body jerks, then you will find that you will have to wait till the next night
|
|
to try again. You will feel a floating sensation and a gentle sense of rising. This is great! If you
|
|
don't jerk, then you will find that you will continue to float and rise, so carefully, open your
|
|
eyes. You will have found that you have floated up and away from your physical body. If you
|
|
want to view your room then you can do so by just thinking of doing so, but be careful. The
|
|
experience is something akin to hearing your voice for the first time on the tape recorder. It
|
|
will be quite a shock and you'll hardly believe it's your body. Some have become so startled
|
|
that they have returned to their bodies with a shock. Do not be startled or afraid. Just relax as
|
|
you float there and get used to the sensation of your new body. You will find that you are
|
|
naked. If you will think of clothes, then you will be dressed, but remember to put that thought
|
|
away in a corner of your mind in order to remain dressed. Slowly, "will" yourself to settle back
|
|
to the floor. What will you do next?
|
|
|
|
For the first night, it is best that you go straight to the Astral Realm. All you need do is think
|
|
of being there and you will do so. Wherever you want to be your thoughts will take you. If you
|
|
will go to the Astral Realm first, and thereafter spend a little time in the Astral before doing
|
|
other things on the Earth plane, you will never have trouble getting out of the physical body
|
|
again. You will also receive a tremendous magickal recharge by visiting the Astral Realm.
|
|
When you want to return simply think of your physical body and you will be there. Now, you
|
|
must return slowly, and carefully, back into your body.
|
|
|
|
It is essential that you do this slowly. Have you ever had a dream where you felt yourself
|
|
suddenly falling and woke up with a start. This is what happens when you return too fast into
|
|
your physical body. It is essential to align the two bodies up correctly, or you will suffer from a
|
|
headache. If this happens, simply fall back to sleep and when you awaken the alignment
|
|
process will have occurred naturally and the headache will be gone. On reentry, you will feel as
|
|
if you are returning to a very dense and cold body. It won't be the most comfortable experience
|
|
in your life. But this shows you how much more crude and slower a rate of vibration the
|
|
physical body really is. There, you have Night Projected. Let's examine another technique for
|
|
projecting yourself out of your physical body.
|
|
|
|
Again relax fully and make sure that there are no rough edges disturbing your body and
|
|
distracting you. Have your eyes closed and roll them up so that, in effect, you are looking
|
|
somewhere up at the top of your forehead. Do not create eyestrain though. Breathe regularly,
|
|
rhythmically, and deeply then forget all about your breathing. Turn your conscious awareness
|
|
towards your third Night Center which is located over the solar plexus, or navel area. It is
|
|
from this area that the Astral Body leaves the physical body. Visualize your Astral Body
|
|
slowly starting to leave your physical body. Picture the third Night Center like a window
|
|
through which the Astral is going to leave. See the Astral as a cloud-like figure, shaped
|
|
similarly to the physical body, and slowly rising up and floating about six feet above the
|
|
physical form. At this point any one of the following might happen: 1) again you might jerk
|
|
and return to your body and so on another night you'll have to try again, 2) you'll feel a tingling
|
|
or numbness in your physical body which is a good sign, but which you should ignore. From
|
|
here, you will feel a rigidity or stiffness come over the body and you will not be able to move.
|
|
DON'T PANIC! This is an excellent sign of progress. You will be able to see as if through your
|
|
eyelids and the surroundings will be bathed in a soft light, if you remain calm, you will begin
|
|
to feel a slight swaying and out you'll move into the Astral Realm. You will see things in very
|
|
vivid colors and with remarkable clarity, 3) you may feel a swaying motion and then
|
|
experience the feeling as if going through a dark tunnel, at the end of which is a bright light. At
|
|
the end of the tunnel you will pass through a curtain of brilliant colored drops and then,
|
|
suddenly you will be in the Astral World. Night Projection is a very beautiful experience.
|
|
|
|
Have no fear and you will have no problems. Don't be discouraged if, at first, you don't succeed.
|
|
Nothing ever comes too easy in life but must be worked at with great patience and diligence.
|
|
Never talk about your travels except to help others. Use it to grow magickally on the road of
|
|
Night Magick. Remain always in the Shadow of your Night Teacher as you travel in the
|
|
Greater Realms. You have come to the end of another chapter in Night Magick.
|
|
|
|
It was a chapter filled with the wonders of Water Magick and the Astral Realm. You have come
|
|
to know the Realm, intimately, and even how to travel in it while still living in a physical
|
|
body. You have explored the secret uses of water. You have learned secrets about your physical
|
|
and Astral bodies and the inner power contained within them. You can look at others now and
|
|
know their thoughts and emotions by the use of your Night Eye. You have met the Goddess
|
|
Diane and perhaps most importantly, you have come to know that you are never alone in this
|
|
world. That your love ones and friends are just in the next Realm always waiting to help you if
|
|
you will let them. Yet, for the moment, you must leave the beauty of the Astral Realm and the
|
|
lore of Water Magick and enter into a higher and even more exciting phase of Night Magick.
|
|
This is the Mental Realm and the lore of Air Magick.

AIR MAGICK
|
|
|
|
30. The Mental Realm
|
|
|
|
As you travel on the road of Night Magick and endeavor to become a Night Magician, you first
|
|
had to gain some mastery over your physical and emotional selves. This is a long process and
|
|
may take many lives to accomplish. But as you begin to achieve that mastery, you will
|
|
continue down the road towards Night Consciousness. Now you will travel the third portion of
|
|
the road towards self-mastery. You enter the Realm of Mind.
|
|
|
|
As you found with the Astral Realm, the Mental Realm is composed of varying levels of
|
|
vibration. It would be wise to examine, in brief, these different vibrations and their
|
|
interrelationship. Let's begin with the highest realm and work our way down to the lowest
|
|
level.
|
|
|
|
The Void is the highest level that can be reached. It is the level where we are all united in Mind
|
|
as One. Here, all are One. This is the level of knowing. Here, you do not think for all is known.
|
|
Here all ideas exist, all things are known, and you as the Spirit are the Knower. This is the
|
|
level of Pure Mind, the Void Mind, the sum of all. This mind essence interpenetrates all and is
|
|
accessible to all who are in vibration with it. This is the ultimate level all must someday
|
|
reach. You must be the Knower. The Godsoul Mind is the next level.
|
|
|
|
This is the level of original mind. Here all minds are as one yet there is individuality. This is
|
|
the level of highest individual mind. Here is the origin of the archetypes of mind. The Oversoul
|
|
Mind is the next level.
|
|
|
|
This is the level of the Higher Mind. From out of the Godsoul Mind, ideas that exist become
|
|
manifest in this world. Here, you find all joined in the Oversoul Mind. There is Oneness in
|
|
thought and consciousness. The Oversoul Thought first creates, using the ideas drawn from
|
|
the Godsoul Mind and the mind substance of the Oversoul Realm. Here, you are the Oversoul in
|
|
Thought and Action, the Creator. Now you enter the physical world of thought and mind.
|
|
|
|
You may believe you know this world. Actually, your thoughts and consciousness are much
|
|
more then you realize. You will remember that your emotions were tied into your emotional or
|
|
Astral Body. Your thoughts and consciousness are the same and make up the Mental Body. It is
|
|
through your Mental Body that you think and have consciousness on the physical plane. But
|
|
in order for the physical body to be tied into this Mental Body, there must be a physical link
|
|
and this is the brain. Many believe that it is the brain that actually does the thinking, but the
|
|
brain is actually a receiving station. It takes the Mental energies sent to it, by the Mental
|
|
Body, and translates it into action in the physical body. Your brain is attuned to the
|
|
wavelength of your Mental Body. Your brain and Mental Body produces an electromagnetic
|
|
current through its activities, and thus, also produces a Mental Aura which is akin to your
|
|
Astral Aura. To see these energies, you would have to develop your Night Eye to a greater degree
|
|
then you had when you saw the Astral energies. I discussed earlier how the Oversoul is directly
|
|
linked to the physical body via the silver cord into the heart region. The silver cord is also
|
|
directly linked to the brain region. Thus your thoughts are always monitored and acted upon
|
|
by your Oversoul. Your Oversoul in order to experience the physical world must build-up
|
|
physical counterparts to its Magickal Being.
|
|
|
|
So in the beginning of the Oversoul's physical sojourn, the mind substance of the Mental Body
|
|
is undeveloped. But as time in this world and the others passes, the physical mind develops
|
|
and slowly becomes refined. Life after life, you come to this plane trying to develop your
|
|
physical consciousness into one with your Oversoul consciousness. Although the Oversoul can
|
|
influence the Mental Body if the Mental Body does not listen then there is little that the
|
|
Oversoul can do. The majority of the world does not listen to the Oversoul. Therefore the
|
|
Oversoul withdraws into its own realm and remains there until the Lower Mind calls upon it
|
|
for assistance and tries to listen and follow its will. This is what you are trying to do.
|
|
So, as you move farther into this chapter on Air Magick, you will encounter exercises, rites,
|
|
and the use of your Night Magician's Tools and Weapons, in order to develop your mind. You
|
|
will take your mind through the tests of self-mastery in order to become a Night Magician.
|
|
Your first rite in Air Magick will give you the link between the air and your mind.
|
|
|
|
31. Air Rite
|
|
|
|
The Ancient Ones compared the element of air to that of the mind. The Ancient Mysteries,
|
|
likewise, showed that the mental faculties could be compared to the aerial regions. It is my
|
|
intention to introduce a rite that will greatly benefit the mind and its faculties. The rite puts
|
|
together two elements: your mind and the air. I will show you how your mental powers can be
|
|
enhanced through a special form of breathing.
|
|
|
|
You will remember in the topic on Night Breathing that it was through very deep breathing
|
|
that your health could be improved and for many, breathing is very shallow. In the Air Rite,
|
|
you are going to use deep breathing but it is going to be based on a particular breathing rate.
|
|
Instead of just breathing in and out rhythmically, you will breathe in and hold the breath for
|
|
so long, and then breathe out and then, again, hold your breath. Great benefit can be derived by
|
|
such. Before you begin, I want to make it clear that this is serious business and not a game.
|
|
Please, DO NOT deviate from the set pattern that is about to be described. To do so can be very
|
|
hazardous to your health.
|
|
|
|
To begin with, you must sit or lie down so that you are very comfortable. Then, you want to
|
|
become very relaxed and reduce all the tenseness possible in your body. Then, you will need to
|
|
cross your ankles and wrists to build-up the energy from your breathing. If you have done all
|
|
of this, then you are ready to begin with the breathing. To start with, you will do three
|
|
complete deep breathing exercises. If you have forgotten how, then here is a quick review.
|
|
|
|
Inhale as deep a breath as possible pushing the diaphragm out as far as possible. When you feel
|
|
you have taken in all the air possible, take in just a bit more air. Then exhale the air very
|
|
steadily and completely bringing in the diaphragm and abdomen as far as possible. You want
|
|
to really empty your lungs. After you have done this, you are ready to do the timed breathing.
|
|
|
|
Timed breathing means you are going to breathe in for so many seconds, then hold your breath
|
|
for so many seconds, then exhale so many seconds, and again hold your breath for so many
|
|
seconds. In the Air Rite, you are going to begin by inhaling for five seconds, hold your breath
|
|
for ten seconds, exhale for ten seconds, and hold your breath for seven to ten seconds. You are
|
|
going to repeat the entire process ten times. There are certain precautions you must take in
|
|
doing this rite.
|
|
|
|
You must not do it if you are in poor health. You must stop doing it if for any reason you are
|
|
feeling dizzy or light headed. If you persist in doing it past these warning signals then you are
|
|
likely to pass out. You must not strain yourself in doing this rite. There should be absolutely
|
|
no force on your part to maintain the pattern of breathing. If there is, then you need to reduce
|
|
the number of seconds that you hold your breath. If you do the rite correctly then the benefits
|
|
are tremendous.
|
|
|
|
You will find that your mental health will be tremendous. You will feel relieved of all tension
|
|
and mental strain. You will feel extra charged with new mental power. This is an excellent
|
|
rite to use before and after any of the mental exercises in Air Magick. If you need added mental
|
|
power for long periods of study or for increased memory then this rite will greatly increase
|
|
both. If your world is filled with mental demands, then this rite is best practiced several times
|
|
a day. It is especially good to use it when you feel the least mentally drained. You can see that
|
|
there is a very close relationship to the air you breathe and your mental faculties. It is all
|
|
based on the right use of your breathing patterns. You should remember to be relaxed and not
|
|
to strain when you use the Air Rite. Further, you must not play around with different patterns
|
|
of timed breathing if you don't want to hurt yourself. You should always use this rite to the
|
|
benefit of your good health. By now, you should be mentally charged up and ready to explore
|
|
the power of your mind.
|
|
|
|
32. Power of Thought
|
|
|
|
As the title suggests, there is power in your thoughts. You probably have never thought of your
|
|
thoughts as containing any kind of power but they do. Much of Mental Magick requires your
|
|
understanding of the Mental Realm and how to increase the powers of your mind. Here I will
|
|
discuss briefly the Mental Realm and begin your development of a more powerful Mental Body.
|
|
|
|
When you die to the physical plane you move first to the Astral Realm. After reviewing your
|
|
past life and lives, you then receive guidance as to what to do next. If you are of a higher
|
|
vibration then that of the Astral Realm, then you may leave, or die to, the Astral and go on to
|
|
the Mental Realm. It is here in the Mental Realm that all ideas are first brought forth in
|
|
created form. It is a world of thought and creation through thought. The great creations,
|
|
inventions, social ideas, and art that are in the world today were originally created in this
|
|
mind world and released into the physical world. Here, in the physical world, a receptive
|
|
individual is able to tune into these thought patterns and create from them on the physical
|
|
level. Thought creation is the work of the Great Beings who live upon this Mental World. They
|
|
create in thought great things that will enhance the physical world. This leads to your
|
|
relationship with the Mental World.
|
|
|
|
There was some very significant information in that last paragraph that you can carry over
|
|
into your world here in the physical, in regards to thought power. The Beings who live in the
|
|
Mental Realm first perceive the idea, then they picture the idea, and then they give the idea
|
|
form and send it into the physical world. You do the very same thing all the time, but without
|
|
very much effort or concentration. You often get an idea of something that you want, but that's
|
|
usually where it all ends. You may think about it once in a while and hope you will get it, but
|
|
only sporadically. If you look at the Mental Realm around you and examine its properties and
|
|
how it works, then you will see why thoughts can have power.
|
|
|
|
In this material world of ours, if you want to create something you must use some physical
|
|
means to do so. This means is usually by way of your hands. In the Mental Realm, your
|
|
material, so to speak, that you create with is the etherial Mental energies. The tool with which
|
|
you create with is your thought. By applying a strong, concentrated, and continuous thought
|
|
directed at the Mental energies, you can create a Thought Form. That is, your thoughts take on
|
|
a form imbued with the qualities of your thoughts. If you continue to add more thought power
|
|
to this form, it will eventually materialize into your material world. Whatever the thought is
|
|
programmed to do, it will happen here on Earth. So if you wanted a forty foot yacht, then that
|
|
is what would eventually come into your possession. If the thought was that of a specific
|
|
healing for someone, then the thought would go forth and heal. Now, before you go and rush off
|
|
and start wishing for this and that, let's look at a few more facts.
|
|
|
|
You just can't sit down and start wishing. You do that all the time. There is a certain way that
|
|
this must be done. Next, you must build-up your powers of observation, concentration,
|
|
memory, and visualization. The meditation that you have been doing, hopefully all along, is
|
|
important too. In topic forty, you will learn how to create through thought. It may seem that
|
|
you are a long way from getting to topic forty, but please don't jump the topics in between this
|
|
one and forty. You will, first, have to develop those powers of the mind, through the exercises
|
|
that follow shortly. The exercises must be practiced faithfully, and for as long as it takes to
|
|
master them. Further, each topic that follows, up to number forty, will further enhance your
|
|
mental abilities and prepare you for topic forty. Now, let's get to those exercises.
|
|
|
|
Exercise #1, Observation. There aren't too many who can at the end of the day recall what they
|
|
did step-by-step. Yet, this is part of your observation training. In the evening, sit down and
|
|
recall the day the best that you can. At first, this may not be as easy as it sounds. Then, take
|
|
this one stage further, and at the end of the week, say on Saturday, again sit down and recall
|
|
the entire week in as much detail as possible. Visualize, or picture, the people you met, things
|
|
that you did, and things said. Another observation exercise you can do is to enter a room
|
|
quickly and, for say thirty seconds, look around the room and then shut your eyes and recall
|
|
as many objects as possible. You can do this in the outdoors, too. For example, while walking
|
|
down the sidewalk, or in the park, observe what's around you and then stop and close your eyes
|
|
and recall all the details of your surroundings that you have just passed. If you will study these
|
|
examples, then perhaps you can go on to create more observation exercise for yourself.
|
|
|
|
Exercise #2, Concentration. To begin with, do some mental arithmetic. On your mental
|
|
blackboard, begin by adding a row of numbers. Write down the numbers on a sheet of paper
|
|
and then close your eyes and see those numbers on your board. Then, add them mentally, and
|
|
when you have the answer write it down and then do it on paper. Next, multiply some numbers
|
|
and, also, do some division. At first, you will be able to use only simple numbers, but as your
|
|
concentration develops, you will be able to do more and more complicated problems. Another
|
|
concentration exercise you might use is to concentrate on NOT thinking. That's right! You are
|
|
going to get very quiet in your Magician's Study, with the curtains drawn, and you are going to
|
|
picture your mental blackboard and you are going to keep it blank. You are going to cease
|
|
thinking of anything. Concentrate on doing this. It is not easy, for thoughts will do their best
|
|
to creep in, but you must concentrate and not permit them to do so. Do this for about ten
|
|
minutes to begin with, and then gradually lengthen the time per sitting.
|
|
Exercise #3, Memory. Begin by picking your favorite passage from a book or poet and
|
|
selecting five or six lines from it. Then memorize them. Constantly create new memory games
|
|
that will exercise your power of memory. Acquire a booklet that gives you some material to
|
|
study, and provides you with a test that will see just how much you have been able to retain of
|
|
the material. Make a list of ten people, places, or things and then recall them forward and
|
|
backward. Gradually increase the number of items on your list.
|
|
|
|
Exercise #4, Visualization. A phrase that you might select to mean the same as the word
|
|
visualization is, "to picture with the mind's eye". You are going to create an image of something
|
|
in your mind. Begin this exercise by thinking of someone you know and then picturing what
|
|
that person looks like. Get this image in your mind's eye so real, that it seems to be right there
|
|
in front of you. An aid that you might use is to get a photograph of the person and then study it
|
|
for a minute and then do your visualization. Next, you might try, while walking down the
|
|
sidewalk and coming towards someone, to study their face carefully and after they have passed
|
|
you, recall their face in your mind's eye. Don't just use people as subjects. If you can think of
|
|
objects, or animals, that will be great, too. But when you visualize these people, or whatever
|
|
you choose, see them in clear detail and always in color. These are the four exercises that will
|
|
set your feet definitely on the path of acquiring mastery over your mind. In all these exercises
|
|
do them no more then about fifteen minutes each. You should do them all, at least, once a day.
|
|
You might want to separate them, doing some exercises during the day and others when you are
|
|
at home at night. Continue to practice these exercises for the rest of your sojourn here on
|
|
Earth.
|
|
|
|
Practice these with patience and determination and you will gain mental mastery. You will be
|
|
on your way to being able to have great success with creative visualization. An important part
|
|
of the Mental Realm involves the Silent Magician who you'll meet next.
|
|
|
|
33. Your Silent Magician
|
|
|
|
You have just come from looking at your Mental Body and knowing that it is your physical
|
|
consciousness. But actually, your Mental Body is much, much more. Your Mental Body also
|
|
contains that part of your consciousness which is called the Subconscious Mind. How much of
|
|
your consciousness is composed of the Subconscious? Would you believe, almost all of it?
|
|
That's right! You actually use only a very small fraction of your total mental capacity. What
|
|
about geniuses, you ask? They only use a part of a fraction more then do the rest of us. To get
|
|
some idea of how small your mental capacity is, in relation to the whole, let's first imagine a
|
|
fifty-five gallon drum.
|
|
|
|
It's empty right now, but if you were going to fill it with water, representing your physical
|
|
consciousness, how much water would it take? Well, believe it or not, it would take only about
|
|
five gallons. The rest of the space comprises your Subconscious Mind. As you can see, your
|
|
Subconscious is a mental giant. Just imagine what would happen if you could tap into this
|
|
great source of mental power. You are going to learn to do this in just a little while. But first,
|
|
you must become more familiar with the Subconscious Mind and the role it plays in your life.
|
|
|
|
You could actually name the Subconscious Mind, your "Silent Witness". For indeed, that is
|
|
what your Subconscious does. It witnesses all that you do. It is able to remember all that you
|
|
have ever done in this lifetime and what's more, it contains the memories from all your lives
|
|
here on Earth and sojourns in the otherworlds. Why can't you remember them then?
|
|
|
|
This is because there is an energy screen between yourself and the Subconscious. This screen is
|
|
there for several reasons. First, this screen prevents you from tampering with the
|
|
Subconscious Mind. For most people memories of past lives should remain off limits.
|
|
Therefore, you have this screen which prevents you from directly learning what is stored in
|
|
your Subconscious. To know your past lives may seem, at first, important, but really it's not.
|
|
What if in a past life you were a murderer or a robber? Could you handle this information?
|
|
Some say, that they would like to search into the Subconscious Mind and know why they have
|
|
returned to this world and learn what it is they came here for. But if you find this out, and
|
|
concentrate so hard on accomplishing this one thing, that you might, inadvertently, overlook
|
|
something else which will cause you to have to come back down here. Actually, knowing your
|
|
past lives, and why you came down here, is really unnecessary. What's really important is that
|
|
you live this life to your very best. That each, and every day, you do the very best that you can
|
|
and give life your very best effort. If you do this, then when you reach the other side you can
|
|
say, you did your very best, and that is all anyone can ask.
|
|
|
|
Second, unlike your physical consciousness, your Subconscious hasn't the ability to
|
|
discriminate between Truth and untruth. The Subconscious simply takes all information
|
|
given to it by the physical consciousness and records it. The energy screen allows you time to
|
|
hash over a problem, discerning what's right and what's wrong, and when you have come up
|
|
with the right answer, or what seems right to you, your Subconscious then incorporates that
|
|
into its storage banks. The screen prevents data from leaving your conscious mind, too soon,
|
|
and entering the Subconscious. So, you know that your Subconscious Mind is the storage
|
|
house for all that you have ever done. You also know that it is not able to discern between
|
|
Truth and untruth, but there is more. It will store whatever you know to be Truth. From this
|
|
you can determine that your Subconscious is unable to reason, that is, unable to form
|
|
conclusions or make judgments. The Subconscious is not logical. Yet, your Subconscious
|
|
Mind plays a big role in your life. The biggest role it plays is to function as a relay between you,
|
|
the physical consciousness, and your Oversoul.
|
|
|
|
Your Oversoul receives information on your progress down here on Earth from your
|
|
Subconscious Mind and the Oversoul relays information and directives to your Subconscious,
|
|
who then puts them into action in your life. This is an important aspect which I will expand
|
|
on a little later. Your Subconscious Mind is also in link with all other Subconscious Minds.
|
|
Your Subconscious Mind is able to tap in with any other Subconscious Mind, and they are able
|
|
to pool information. So, if you were able to communicate with your Subconscious Mind
|
|
directly, you would be able to find out from it information about anything that you needed to
|
|
know. Your Subconscious has direct links with both your Oversoul and with all other
|
|
Subconscious Minds. But communication with your Subconscious Mind is not an easy thing
|
|
to do.
|
|
|
|
You can see by all the things your Subconscious Mind is involved in, that it is a very busy
|
|
entity. Getting its attention is the task at hand. What would you do, if you were trying to get the
|
|
attention of your next-door neighbor who is very busy in their house and who has never been
|
|
disturbed before? You would go next-door, and knock, and call out their name, until someone
|
|
answered. You are going to use a similar procedure with your Subconscious Mind. First, before
|
|
you start knocking on your Subconscious Mind's door, your going to do a little visualization.
|
|
|
|
In your mind's eye, view a large room with storage files and computer data banks and a large
|
|
control panel, and in charge of all this is your Subconscious, your Silent Witness, and who you
|
|
will picture as your Silent Night Magician. You'll envision her/him dressed as you are dressed
|
|
during your rituals in full Night Magick regalia. It is here, in this room, on the Isle of your
|
|
Silent Magician located in the Mental Realm, that you will go to speak with your Silent
|
|
Magician. Before you can communicate with Her or Him, let's first look at the language you
|
|
must communicate in.
|
|
There is a special way that you must talk to your Silent Magician in order for Her/Him to
|
|
understand you correctly. You know S/he can not reason nor is S/he able to be logical. S/he
|
|
can not discern between Truth or untruth. So the Silent Magician takes everything you say
|
|
very literal. So when you talk to your Silent Magician, you must use the most simple, direct,
|
|
and plain language. You do not want to say anything which has a double meaning. For
|
|
example, if you want to find out where your lost ring is, and you ask Her/Him if S/he knows if
|
|
the ring is in the sink drain, the Silent Magician will answer, Yes! Yes, S/he does know if it is
|
|
there or not, but that doesn't mean it is there. Ask Her/Him a direct question, "Is the ring in the
|
|
sink drain of the kitchen?" Now that you have the preliminaries over with, its time for you to
|
|
get down to the actual business of communion with your Silent Magician.
|
|
|
|
To begin with, go into your Magician's Study and lie down and relax. Do some Night Breathing
|
|
and get very comfortable. Now, envision the control room in your mind, where your Silent
|
|
Magician is located. And once again, picture your Silent Magician at work. Now call out
|
|
Her/His name. What's Her/His name?
|
|
|
|
You're going to have to give Her/Him a very personal name similar to the one you selected as
|
|
your Night Name. This is a name that only you will know. You're not going to tell anyone else
|
|
the name of your Silent Magician. Now, picturing very strongly your Magician at work, call
|
|
out Her/His new name. A proper way of doing such would be to say, "You who are my
|
|
Subconscious Mind and Silent Magician and Friend, I give you the name of __________ ."
|
|
Say this at least three times. Then go on to say to, "when I call out your name you will please
|
|
listen to me. I want you and me to be partners and friends for this will benefit both of us. I
|
|
want you to help me in all that I do. I want this in all sincerity and honesty." Say this also
|
|
three times. You must do this three times a day. You must grow use to saying and doing this
|
|
and thinking of your Subconscious as a friend and ally. Know that when you have the
|
|
attention of your Subconscious Mind, that you are without limitation.
|
|
|
|
The Silent Magician is all powerful and all knowing. S/He can be a tremendous ally. For now,
|
|
this is all you should do. Just get acquainted with your Silent Magician and gain Her/His
|
|
trust. You should always be truthful and straightforward with your Silent Friend. You, in
|
|
your own right, are mentally strong and you are only a small fraction of your full potential.
|
|
Imagine what would be your mental ability and the power of your thoughts, if you could
|
|
increase them eleven fold. This can be, if you will tie in with your Silent Magician. Your ally
|
|
on Earth. As you have seen, your Subconscious is unique. Even though S/he can not reason or
|
|
be logical, S/he can do all that you can do. S/He can do all you can do only eleven times
|
|
greater. It is the seat of total memory. By reaching Her/Him, and convincing Her/Him that
|
|
you need Her/Him, S/he will release information to you that you are unaware of, about
|
|
yourself. S/he can correct wrongs with you such as, habits that you would like to be rid of, and
|
|
can increase such things as your memory retention if you will work with Her/Him. You can
|
|
also go direct to your Oversoul by gaining your Silent Magician's trust and aid.
|
|
|
|
The Subconscious will be glad to go direct to your Oversoul for you if S/he truly sees the need.
|
|
You must convince Her/Him of your sincerity and trustworthiness. You will be cooperating
|
|
with your Silent Magician in the use of self-hypnosis, the pendulum, crystal, psychometry,
|
|
and telepathy. So work hard on reaching your Silent Magician and developing the close
|
|
rapport needed in your work as a Night Magician. Your first joint undertaking, between you
|
|
and your Silent Friend, is the practice of self- hypnosis.
|
|
|
|
34. Hypnotism and Self
|
|
|
|
In classical mythology, Hypnos was the god of sleep. He was the brother of Thanatos and the
|
|
son of Erebus and Nyx. The word, hypnotism, is taken from the greek word, "hypnoein", which
|
|
means, "to put to sleep". So you can see that hypnotism must have something to do with sleep,
|
|
right? Actually, it doesn't have anything to do with sleep, except that when a person is in a
|
|
hypnotic state of consciousness, s/he may appear to be sleeping. What then is hypnosis?
|
|
|
|
In the state of hypnosis, you are extremely vulnerable to suggestions. For example, if you are
|
|
told that when you put your hand in a vat of water and will feel a pleasant warmth, then this
|
|
will be so. Even if the water in the tub is very, very cold. That doesn't mean that your hand
|
|
won't be cold, but as far as your physical consciousness is concerned, the hand feels warmth
|
|
from the cold water. How can this be? You're going to examine that very question in-depth and
|
|
go on to learn some good uses for hypnotism and also the dangers of hypnotism. Lastly, you
|
|
are going to learn how to induce self-hypnosis and the reasons for doing so. First though, let's
|
|
see how hypnosis works.
|
|
|
|
To begin your investigation, you're going to examine the technique of a hypnotist at work. For
|
|
in studying how a hypnotist works, you will be able to gain an insight into how hypnosis
|
|
works. The hypnotist first needs a subject and that is going to be you. The hypnotist will then
|
|
stand in front of you and s/he will suspend some shiny object and ask you to concentrate on
|
|
the object. As you continue to concentrate, the hypnotist will begin the first of her/his
|
|
suggestions to you; you are starting to feel drowsy. Next, s/he will tell you that your eyelids are
|
|
starting to feel heavy. You can see already that from just trying to concentrate on the object
|
|
that you will start to feel eye fatigue. And because your eyes are starting to feel tired, you
|
|
already are beginning to trust the suggestions of the hypnotist. As the process continues, you
|
|
will start to fall into an altered state of awareness. When the hypnotist has you deeply relaxed,
|
|
s/he will continue with further suggestions. For example, s/he will then ask you to raise your
|
|
right arm straight out in front of you. Then s/he will tell you that your arm is starting to feel
|
|
very heavy and that you can hardly hold it up. Well, it's obvious that the hypnotist is
|
|
requesting you to do things and then makes suggestions which corresponds with what you are
|
|
feeling. But in all of this, there is a very real purpose, and that is for you to believe in the
|
|
hypnotist. You are starting to trust the hypnotist and believe that whatever s/he tells you is
|
|
going to occur. But actually, there is much more to it then just your outer conscious belief in
|
|
the hypnotist.
|
|
|
|
Here, you rejoin your new friend, the Silent Magician, for the explanation. What the hypnotist
|
|
has been doing is breaching the energy screen that is between you and your Silent Friend. The
|
|
hypnotist has actually been working on the Subconscious Mind with her/his suggestions and
|
|
gaining Her/His trust. When the hypnotist has convinced the Silent Magician that whatever
|
|
s/he says is going to happen, then you are truly hypnotised. You will remember from the last
|
|
topic, that your Subconscious is unable to discern between the Truth and untruth. They are not
|
|
able to reason. So as you, the physical consciousness, trusted the hypnotist and began to
|
|
believe in her/him, so the Subconscious Mind will too. The hypnotist, in convincing you with
|
|
her/his simple suggestions has caused you to lower the energy screen between you and your
|
|
Subconscious. Once this screen was lowered, the hypnotist is directly working with your
|
|
Subconscious Mind.
|
|
All that s/he now tells you, your Silent Magician will believe and comply with. If s/he tells
|
|
you when you look at an object, that you will not be able to see it, then to your physical
|
|
consciousness, the object will not be there. This is hypnosis. Hypnosis can be a real benefit to
|
|
humankind, but it can also be a real danger. There have been some valuable uses for hypnosis
|
|
in today's society. Medically they have used hypnosis in some cases as a substitute for
|
|
anesthetic. Thereby eliminating the dangers of having to anesthetize someone. The police
|
|
have used it to hypnotize a crime victim, or witness, in order to draw out of the Subconscious
|
|
Mind greater details of a crime, and so, possibly leading to the capture of the criminals. These
|
|
are some very positive uses for hypnosis.
|
|
Hypnosis can be a very dangerous subject. You should under no circumstances allow yourself
|
|
to be placed under hypnosis by someone you do not fully trust. Nor should you undergo
|
|
hypnosis for fun and games. Hypnosis is a serious business. When you undergo hypnosis, you
|
|
surrender your Subconscious Mind, out of the Hands of your Oversoul, and into the hands of
|
|
the hypnotist. As you can see, this can lead to some serious consequences for you, if you are in
|
|
the wrong hands. Let your imagination conjure up the harm that can be done to you by the
|
|
hypnotist. So let this be warning enough, DO NOT BE HYPNOTIZED, unless you are absolutely
|
|
sure of the hypnotist and why you are being hypnotized. How can you get around the
|
|
hypnotist?
|
|
|
|
You can circumvent her/him by using self-hypnosis. You are going to be the hypnotist. For
|
|
sure, I can think of no better hypnotist then you, once you are properly trained. There are
|
|
many reasons why you might want to use self-hypnosis. If you have ever wanted to stop
|
|
smoking; to improve your memory; to stop a bad habit; to develop particular traits within
|
|
yourself, for example, patience and calmness; then you will want to try self- hypnosis. For
|
|
some, a big reason would be to lose weight. The possibilities are endless. When you tell your
|
|
Silent Magician, in self-hypnosis, what you want, then you will see it occur in yourself. But be
|
|
sure, if you are trying to give up something, that you truly want to give it up. Otherwise you
|
|
won't be able to do it. As you begin to learn the techniques for self-hypnosis, you should be in
|
|
reasonably good health. If you are in good health, then let's begin.
|
|
You will practice this in your Magician's Study insuring that the room is free from intrusion
|
|
by others and without drafts. The room should be reasonably dark. Once all your room
|
|
preparations have been made, then you should lay down on something comfortable. Now you
|
|
are going to practice the complete body relaxation that you practiced in preparation for Night
|
|
Projection. If you go through the same motions that you did in that topic, then you will have
|
|
achieved the proper state of relaxation. To quickly recount what you did; you began thinking
|
|
of your toes and erasing all tension in them. Then you went up the leg and did this for both
|
|
legs. You worked on every part of your body achieving the fullest relaxation possible. This is
|
|
what you want here. Now, practice some Night Breathing and deepen the relaxation. While you
|
|
are breathing, just let your thoughts float on your breath. The key is to relax deeply. Now to
|
|
contact your Silent Magician.
|
|
|
|
Pull your thoughts together and concentrate your gaze upon a point somewhere on the ceiling
|
|
above you. This point should be at such an angle that it causes slight eye strain. Now, as you
|
|
continue to stare, you will begin to feel eye strain. When you can feel this, you should then tell
|
|
yourself, aloud, that when you count beginning from ten and reach one, you are going to close
|
|
your eyes and be unable to open them. So let's do it.
|
|
|
|
"I am going to count from ten to one and when I reach one my eyes will close because they have
|
|
become very tired. Ten, my eyes are starting to feel tired; nine, my eyes are becoming much
|
|
more tired and I am beginning to feel like closing them; eight, my eyes are starting to become
|
|
very tired; seven-six, my eyelids are becoming very heavy; five-four, my eyes are so tired that I
|
|
have to close them; three, I can no longer keep my eyes open and feel a real need to close them;
|
|
two, my eyes are so tired they will no longer stay open; one, my eyes have shut."
|
|
|
|
Your eyes should shut automatically, even if your eyes should not close do not worry. Go ahead
|
|
and close them anyway for what you are doing is setting up an automatic reaction, within
|
|
yourself, when you do this. Now that you have your eyes closed, let's continue with self-
|
|
hypnosis.
|
|
|
|
You are going to visualize your Silent Magician and you are going to say outloud the following:
|
|
|
|
"I am going to count from ten to one and when I reach one I'm going to be in a deep state of self-
|
|
hypnosis. I'm going to be alert and fully conscious and my Friend is going to respond to all I
|
|
say to her/him and comply with my desires. Ten, I am becoming very relaxed and my body is
|
|
starting to feel very heavy; nine, my body is feeling heavy and my spirit is lightly floating
|
|
within my body; eight-seven, I am becoming deeply relaxed and slowly entering into trance;
|
|
six-five, I am now in trance yet alert and fully conscious; four-three, I am going deeper and
|
|
deeper into trance; two, I am reaching the deepest state of trance every before achieved; one, I
|
|
am completely in trance yet fully alert and conscious. State name of your Silent Magician
|
|
please listen to me and do what I ask for."
|
|
|
|
Now is the time to make known to your Silent Friend all that you want her/him to do. Let's
|
|
give Her/Him, though, only one thing per session. You are going to practice the entire
|
|
technique, as outlined previously, for the first few times, until you can do it correctly and
|
|
easily. Then you will condense the relaxation and self-hypnosis state into one happening.
|
|
|
|
You are going to say to yourself that when you count to one, you are going to achieve a complete
|
|
state of relaxation and self-hypnosis. That you are going to be fully alert and know what's
|
|
going on and that you are going to be able to direct your Silent Witness to do as you ask. The
|
|
relaxation and self-hypnosis state should come easily, for it should now have become an
|
|
automatic reaction. Do not have any fear of coming out of this state of self-hypnosis for it will
|
|
happen automatically. Through self-hypnosis you can correct faults within yourself, or
|
|
implant qualities that you would like to acquire. Through regular practice you can achieve
|
|
this. This is serious business and should be approached as such. Self-hypnosis will achieve
|
|
for you all that you desire, and you know that you're in safe hands, your own! Your Silent
|
|
Magician will also be your partner and friend in your use of the Night Magician's Pendulum.
|
|
|
|
35. A Night Magician's Pendulum
|
|
|
|
On a dark green hill, encircled by gardens of flowers, immense old trees, fountains, and set
|
|
against a starlit night sky we find the cave entrance to the cavern home of the Night Magician.
|
|
A home dedicated to the ancient practice and knowledge of Night Magick. A home that is as
|
|
ageless as the stars that it is dedicated to. As we enter this beautiful home, through its ancient
|
|
portal, we can see into the Magician's Study and find the Ancient One, busy in observation of
|
|
the stars through a cavern window. We continue to enter, very quietly so as not to disturb the
|
|
Old One, when suddenly we are startled by the resounding chimes of a huge grandfather clock,
|
|
in its act of proclaiming the hour of the night. The most striking thing about the clock is its
|
|
beautiful, ornate brass pendulum. The pendulum swings side-to-side ticking away the hours.
|
|
We all know that the pendulum is set so that time is measured out with the greatest of accuracy.
|
|
But the pendulum is not just for telling time. The pendulum is also a valuable tool for the
|
|
Night Magician. So let's leave the Old One and move to your Magician's Study to take up the
|
|
study of the Night Magician's Pendulum.
|
|
|
|
Your pendulum is not going to be as ornate and beautiful as the one you just observed at the
|
|
Magician's home, but it is based upon the same principle. The pendulum is made up of a long
|
|
arm with a weight suspended on the end. The pendulum you will use is simple to make. You
|
|
will want to construct at least two pendulums.
|
|
|
|
One will require a string at least forty-eight inches long, and the other about twelve inches
|
|
long. A strong sewing thread will serve very well as the material from which to make the
|
|
string. The weight you use can be made of a variety of things. The weight can be made of a
|
|
round ball, about one inch in diameter, and constructed of wood, plastic, glass, or a neutral
|
|
metal. You should have pendulums on hand made up of a variety of the materials just listed.
|
|
You can also use a simple ring as a weight. Another very simple weight you can construct will
|
|
require an unused pencil and sewing needle. Put the point of the needle through the top of the
|
|
eraser, so that the needle will remain attached to the pencil. Then, put the thread through the
|
|
eye of the needle and tie it off, and so, you have the complete pendulum. Once you have made,
|
|
or acquired, your pendulums, what are you going to use them for?
|
|
|
|
Your pendulum will answer questions that range across the entire spectrum of your
|
|
imagination. Have you lost a ring and want to find it? You could find missing people or a lost
|
|
pet. The pendulum can answer questions you have concerning most any topic that you wish to
|
|
pursue. But how can it do this?
|
|
|
|
For part of the answer you must look to your old friend, the Silent Magician. The pendulum is
|
|
an instrument, used by the Silent Magician, to give you the answers to the questions that you
|
|
put to Her/Him. In review, you will remember that your Silent Friend is very brilliant and
|
|
there is very little that s/he does not know, or cannot find out, since They are in direct contact
|
|
with all other Silent Magicians. You will remember that your entire body has an electrical
|
|
field which completely surrounds it. When you have the pendulum suspended from your hand
|
|
and ask your Magician a question, s/he alters the electrical field of your body. That field also
|
|
surrounds the pendulum and causes it to move. The pendulum's movement has been set in a
|
|
certain pattern to indicate Yes or No. The Silent Magician is not the only one who can alter the
|
|
movement of the pendulum. Any resident of the higher realms can also alter your electrical
|
|
field, and so the movement of the pendulum, if they know how. As a rule, the entity working
|
|
with you, and through the pendulum, requires some time before they really can manipulate the
|
|
pendulum well. So not only can you receive information from your Silent Magician but also
|
|
your Guides and Teacher. Before studying the mechanics of how to use the pendulum, you must
|
|
prepare yourself to use the pendulum.
|
|
|
|
The how-to of self-preparation is relatively simple to state, but often hard to achieve. You
|
|
begin by being sure your hands and body are clean, otherwise this will interfere with your body
|
|
electricity. You must have a calm and receptive mind. Your mind must be in a relaxed state
|
|
and without nervous tension and fears. Your mind must be prepared to concentrate on only
|
|
one thing, and that is what you are trying to answer. Your mental attitude must be a serious
|
|
one when you approach this lore. If you have achieved this self-preparation in mind and body,
|
|
then you're ready to begin learning how to use your Magician's Pendulum.
|
|
|
|
First, you will prepare your Magician's Study for the use of the pendulum. Be sure the room
|
|
will be free from interruptions. Then erect a table to work on that is made up of only a hard top
|
|
surface and four legs. Nothing should be under the table for this will interfere with the
|
|
reception of the proper answer. In all cases, you will want to have blank, clean, unused, white
|
|
sheets of paper.
|
|
|
|
The standard, eleven by eight white typing paper will be fine. This is the paper over which you
|
|
are going to suspend your pendulum. On the paper, you are going to draw in the center a large
|
|
plus sign(+). At the top and bottom of the paper, you are going to write the word, YES. On the
|
|
right and left sides of the paper, you are going to write the word, NO. You will use a new sheet
|
|
marked in this way for each set of questions asked pertaining to a certain area of
|
|
examination. Please be sure and use a fresh sheet for each set of questions asked, for when
|
|
questions are asked, the paper becomes saturated with the impressions from those questions,
|
|
and these impressions will interfere with any other set of questions asked. To begin, you must
|
|
formulate the questions you are going to ask.
|
|
|
|
For example, where is my lost gold ring? The question must be simple, clear, concise, and
|
|
unambiguous. Then you must invoke the Night Pillar around yourself and your Magician's
|
|
Study or the place you're working in. If you don't do this, then any force may use the pendulum
|
|
and cause misleading answers. After this, you'll take the short stringed pendulum, between
|
|
your hands, and concentrate on the Night Force around you. Then ask the question three
|
|
times. Then, take the string of the pendulum and wrap it around the first or second finger of
|
|
the right hand, if you are right handed; left hand if you are left handed, such that when you rest
|
|
your elbow on the table, the weight of the pendulum is about an inch above the paper and
|
|
suspended over the plus sign. Then, begin asking if the ring is in the kitchen sink, and so on.
|
|
You can tell when the pendulum is answering you, because it will swing with purpose. Be sure
|
|
and wait between each question, till the pendulum answers. If the pendulum makes a circling
|
|
motion, this indicates uncertainty. Either the force guiding the pendulum doesn't know, the
|
|
question is ambiguous, or they refuse to answer the question. Try asking the question in a
|
|
more precise and clear way, and if there is still uncertainty, go on to another question. If you
|
|
ask a question that involves a geographical answer, then you will need a map. If the search
|
|
area involves a large area, use a map of small scale. This is a map which covers a large area of
|
|
land on a small amount of map area. Then, when you have found a more precise location, use a
|
|
larger scale map to get a pinpoint location. In order for you to use the map, place it on the left
|
|
side, and the plus marked paper on the right. Take the pendulum over the map area and ask it
|
|
to reveal the location of what you're looking for. Then hold the pendulum over the white sheet
|
|
of paper as before, and as you ask your question, you'll move your left forefinger slowly over
|
|
the map area. The pendulum will swing in the positive direction when you have reached the
|
|
right area. This completes the instruction on the use of the pendulum, indoors. It takes
|
|
practice to gain mastery over the use of the pendulum. You must be sure and use simple
|
|
language and concentrate strongly on the question you want answered. Perhaps you've seen, or
|
|
even used, some form of dowsing rod to locate water.
|
|
|
|
The dowsing rod works on the very same principles as the pendulum. For uniformity, and
|
|
familiarity, you are going to use the pendulum outdoors in locating not only water, if that is
|
|
what you want, but anything else you desire. For this method, you will now need your longer
|
|
stringed pendulum. To start with, you must prepare the pendulum for your use. Let's say you
|
|
want to find gold. Then you will need to place in, or on the weight of the pendulum, a sample of
|
|
gold. This can be as small as a flake, but it must be pure gold. Further, you must put under your
|
|
feet another piece of gold. The gold must be pure, so for example, if you use your wedding ring
|
|
be sure it is solid, pure gold. Then, with your pendulum in the correct hand, you will again ask
|
|
your Silent Magician or Guides to find gold for you. Then, loosely holding the string in the
|
|
proper hand, slowly lower the weight towards the ground until it swings in a definite circular
|
|
motion. You will need to experiment with the proper length of string, until you get just the
|
|
right length which gives you the best circular motion. At this point, you should mark the
|
|
string with a knot, and color code it, and record it for future reference. You can apply this same
|
|
technique to anything that you want to find. You should take the time to prepare your
|
|
pendulum for all the things that you will want to find. In all that you do with the Night
|
|
Magician's Pendulum, you should remember certain key things in its proper use.
|
|
|
|
You should remember that in talking with your Silent Friend, you want to use the simplest and
|
|
most direct language, and to repeat it at least three times. You should always remind your
|
|
Friend that you need Her/Him, because what you ask Her/Him to do for you, S/he does for
|
|
Her/Himself, too; that you are One in Thought and Purpose. So be sure, that whatever you
|
|
decide to do, that it is in agreement with your inner beliefs. If you try to use it for something
|
|
you know to be wrong, then your Silent Friend will stop working with you and that will be the
|
|
end of your growth. At the end of each set of questions, be sure and thank your Silent Magician
|
|
for the aid that S/he has provided. Appreciation and respect, go a long way in your successful
|
|
use of the Night Magician's Pendulum. Remember, that the pendulum is for your use alone.
|
|
Never allow anyone else to use or touch your personal pendulum. You can use the pendulum to
|
|
help others find answers to their questions but they should never use your pendulum to do so,
|
|
you will use it for them. Most of all, you should go into this practice with the most serious of
|
|
attitudes towards it. Your frame of mind can mean the difference between success and failure.
|
|
Everything you do to get closer with your Silent Magician, Guides, and Teacher, and to make
|
|
them your unfailing allies in all that you do, will bring mastery into your life here, and
|
|
hereafter. The pendulum is the first of your new Magician's Tools to be acquired in Air
|
|
Magick, and now you are to acquire your second tool, the Night Magician's Crystal Globe.
|
|
36. A Night Magician's Crystal Globe
|
|
|
|
You will remember that when you were in the Night Magician's cave last, you found the Old One
|
|
busily engaged in the observation of the stars. Let's return to the Magician's cavern home and
|
|
see if the Ancient One has begun some new practice from which you can observe and learn.
|
|
|
|
As you quietly enter the home, you have the feeling that you must go to the study. As you move
|
|
into the study, you find the Ancient One sitting on the floor in an apparent state of deep
|
|
meditation. You find that the room is very dark and that it is taking your eyes some time to
|
|
adjust to the darkness. As you continue to observe the Magician, you suddenly become aware
|
|
that more then just meditation is taking place. You can now see that the Wise One is gazing
|
|
into a sphere of apparent nothingness. To your vision, there appears to be a hole of darkness
|
|
into which the Magician seems to be gazing. You move closer to get a better view of what this
|
|
phenomena is. You can now see that this sphere of emptiness is composed of what appears to
|
|
be a clear substance. Suddenly, it dawns upon you that you are observing the Magician in the
|
|
act of Crystal Gazing. Now you know this is what you are going to learn to do. Let's begin your
|
|
instruction then with an in-depth examination of the Crystal the Ancient One was using.
|
|
|
|
The Crystal is spherical in shape and was so clear that there appeared to be nothing there in
|
|
the darkness. Due to the clarity of the Crystal Globe, no reflection of light could be observed to
|
|
give it depth. The Crystal Globe, that the Magician is using, is without flaw. If there were flaws
|
|
in the Crystal then what light was available would cast reflections off these flaws and disturb
|
|
the Magician's gazing. When the Magician gazes into the Crystal Globe it is like looking into a
|
|
deep globe of nothingness. If you were to visit a store in order to purchase a Crystal Globe or
|
|
even one of glass, you would find that a perfectly flawless one is very expensive. So for your
|
|
purposes, you are going to use a crystal hollow globe with a hole in the top.
|
|
|
|
I indicated you should use crystal but glass will also do. The hollow globe should be as round as
|
|
possible. The surface of the globe should be without flaws or markings. The globe should be
|
|
about six inches in diameter. A similar globe is often sold as a fish bowl. It should be able to
|
|
sit on a flat surface. If you have now purchased this Crystal Globe, then let's go on to prepare
|
|
the gazing area.
|
|
|
|
Arrange your Magician's Study so that you can be seated comfortably on the floor, and in front
|
|
of you, you should have your small Night Altar of about eighteen inches in height. There
|
|
should be no strain on the back or shoulder muscles. If there is then adjust the height of the
|
|
table. It is not absolutely necessary that you sit on the floor, for you can sit in a chair as long
|
|
as you can see directly into the globe and it is within easy reach. Cover the table with a dark
|
|
blue or black cloth. You must insure that almost all light has been eliminated from the room.
|
|
|
|
Be sure you are clean and have washed your hands before ever touching the globe. You must
|
|
clean the globe, without soap, before filling it with water. Clean the globe under running water
|
|
and hold the globe with a cloth and dry it before filling it. Never allow direct light to fall on the
|
|
globe. Keep the globe in a safe place and wrapped in a dark cloth. Never allow the curious to
|
|
touch the globe. After you have placed the globe on the table then fill it with water. Fill it all
|
|
the way to the rim so that the globe appears to be solid. This takes care of your study
|
|
preparation but you mustn't forget self-preparation.
|
|
|
|
Be sure you are in good health. Before you begin this exercise, you must be in a good mental
|
|
state. Your mind should be calm and as free from worry as possible. Be sure that you have been
|
|
eating sensibly and don't eat a big meal just before commencing to use the globe. Now you are
|
|
ready to begin using the Crystal Globe.
|
|
|
|
Be seated comfortably and place the Night Pillar around you. You must practice Night
|
|
Breathing for a few minutes in order to become more relaxed. Then place your hands on the
|
|
bottom sides of the globe. Your hands should be in direct contact with the glass. Gaze lightly
|
|
upon the globe. Do not begin with a fixed and concentrated gaze. Look at a point somewhere
|
|
inside the globe and relax. Do not try to see anything. As you continue to gaze, you will see the
|
|
globe start to cloud up with a whitish appearance. This is excellent and exactly what you want.
|
|
You should continue to gaze, and the cloudiness will disappear, and you will begin to see. You
|
|
may even feel a slight falling sensation so don't be startled, or you will have to try another
|
|
evening, which by the way is the best time to practice this.
|
|
There are three types of seeing that may occur.
|
|
|
|
You may actually see as if you were watching television. That is, you may see pictures and
|
|
events occurring. Next, you may only see symbols. These are pictures which represent events
|
|
or happenings. Finally, you may only receive impressions. You may only receive feelings and
|
|
thoughts as to what is trying to be communicated to you. Whatever you receive, through the use
|
|
of the Crystal Globe is a true achievement. You are successful, whether you see pictures,
|
|
symbols, or impressions. In the beginning, you may encounter some difficulty in achieving
|
|
any results.
|
|
|
|
You should only begin by gazing for about fifteen minutes at the most. By the end of the week,
|
|
you should have extended that time to about thirty minutes. This is all that is recommended
|
|
when you are first beginning. In the beginning, you will see only things that pertain to you
|
|
alone. As you begin to see more clearly and easily, you should begin to direct the Crystal in
|
|
what you want to see. As you first touch the globe and relax, concentrate a mental thought at
|
|
the Crystal and tell it what it is you want to see. Eventually, you will gain control over the
|
|
Crystal and be able to direct it at whatever it is you are interested in knowing. You can also use
|
|
the Crystal Globe to give others a reading.
|
|
|
|
To do this, you will go through the very same setup procedures. Then before you actually touch
|
|
the globe, direct the individual who desires the reading, to touch the globe and concentrate on
|
|
what s/he wants to know about. You should also warn them, in advance, not to say anything
|
|
that will disturb you while you are gazing and giving her/him their reading. Then, you will
|
|
take over control of the Crystal and gaze upon it as you would for yourself, and give what you
|
|
see.
|
|
|
|
In all cases, when you are through using the Crystal Globe, you will again rinse the globe and
|
|
dry it off before putting it away.
|
|
The Crystal Globe works by focusing and concentrating the clairvoyant energies from your
|
|
Night Eye Center. The Crystal Globe is an extension of your Night Eye. The globe, as with your
|
|
own personal clairvoyance, is able to do many things.
|
|
|
|
The globe can help you look into the past, present, and future. It can help you look into any
|
|
matter which concerns you and to see all sides of the matter under discernment. You can go
|
|
anywhere at anytime and see all that you wish to see.
|
|
|
|
You must know that you are going to succeed each time you use the Crystal. Even if you don't
|
|
succeed, you must not become discouraged. Every attempt at using the Crystal Globe leads you
|
|
one step closer to success. You should have the attitude of a very personal commitment to the
|
|
Crystal Globe. Always treat it with the utmost respect. The entire business of crystal gazing is
|
|
very serious business and should be treated as such if you are going to succeed at it. Your next
|
|
subject is also a form of seeing. Only instead of using the eyes to see with, you are going to use
|
|
your hands.
|
|
|
|
37. Psychometry
|
|
|
|
Psychometry is the development of your clairaudient faculties in relation to your sense of
|
|
touch. By psychometry, you are going to be able to pickup an object and know its origin and
|
|
history. If the object ever belonged to someone, then you will receive the thoughts and feelings
|
|
of that individual. Psychometry is related to your clairaudient faculties. Let's see how?
|
|
|
|
As you will recall, clairaudience is related to your fifth Night Center which is located at the
|
|
throat level. As your Night Center begins to grow and develop, you develop the sense, in part, of
|
|
being able to perceive sound from the Night Realm. You can hear in a sense, the voice of the
|
|
Night Spirit and even the so called "Music of the Night Spheres". All of this is the attunement
|
|
to, and perception of, higher vibration. An extension of your clairaudient ability is the
|
|
perception of an object's vibration through touch. Your left hand, if you are right handed, is
|
|
the sensitive hand to magickal vibration. All things, of all types of nature, have a personal
|
|
vibration. That vibration is composed of the entire history and nature peculiar to that object.
|
|
Your clairaudient faculty is able to attune to that vibration and translate it into pictures,
|
|
sounds, and/or feelings that you can perceive.
|
|
|
|
Psychometry has many practical applications. You can see actual history taking place by
|
|
using objects that are related to a particular historical event. But remember, you will see
|
|
history as it related to that particular object and its part in that history. You can view the
|
|
origin of the planet through very ancient objects. In a more practical application, you could
|
|
pickup a book and get the basic feeling of that book and what it is about, and then decide if you
|
|
are going to like reading it or not. You can learn about the inner nature of individuals of
|
|
interest to you by examining an object which belongs to them. For example, this could help you
|
|
understand your employer better; why s/he expects certain things from you, her/his reasoning
|
|
behind certain acts, and overall, help you to improve your working relationship with
|
|
her/him. The possibilities are as endless as your imagination is fertile. How do you go about
|
|
developing your clairaudient faculties in relation to psychometry?
|
|
|
|
To begin, let's look at the area of self-preparation. You are going to see a trend developing
|
|
through self-preparation. As in the use of the Night Magician's Pendulum and Crystal Globe,
|
|
you again need a clean body and hands, and a sound and tranquil state of mind. In review, I
|
|
stated in topic thirty-two, "Power of Thought", that in all the exercises used to strengthen and
|
|
train the mind, meditation was very important. Hopefully, you can see the reason for this and
|
|
have been practicing it. Meditation builds for you a tranquil mind. If you have not been doing
|
|
it, regularly, then get to it without fail. If you expect to achieve anything in the Night Magick,
|
|
it must be done through a strong and tranquil mind. So much for self-preparation, now on to
|
|
the mechanics of psychometry.
|
|
|
|
Hopefully, you have someone who is very sympathetic towards your magick and wishes to see
|
|
you succeed in it. If so, get this person to pickup a smooth stone, and take that stone and wash
|
|
it thoroughly, along with their hands. Then holding the stone in her/his left hand, allowing it
|
|
to rest in their open palm, ask them to concentrate on a single thought. This thought should be
|
|
simple. For example, thinking of the color red. Have them concentrate for several minutes on
|
|
this thought. Then, s/he should wrap the stone in a clean cloth and give it to you. Then take
|
|
the stone with you and retire to your Magician's Study.
|
|
Now lie down, relax, place the Night Pillar around you, do some Night Breathing, and place the
|
|
stone in your clean, left hand. Let the stone rest in the palm of your open hand. Now you must
|
|
allow your mind to be without thought and tranquil. Do not try to concentrate on the stone.
|
|
Just relax and allow your mind to drift on nothingness. You may or may not feel a tingling in
|
|
the palm of your hand. What you should receive is a feeling or impression, in this case, the
|
|
color red. If not, then try moving the stone to your left temple and again relax. If you do not
|
|
receive an impression do not be discouraged. It takes practice and perseverance to succeed. If
|
|
you do not have someone who can help you, then you can try something else. The next time you
|
|
receive a letter or bill, before you open it, retire to your room and go through the same
|
|
procedures as just outlined above with the stone. As you receive the impressions, record them
|
|
and then open the bill or letter and see if you're right. Remember, that many people will touch
|
|
the letter or bill before it gets to you, and so their impressions will also be on it. This is
|
|
psychometry.
|
|
|
|
You will receive impressions, feelings, or pictures from objects you touch. As your
|
|
clairaudient faculties develop through practice, you will be able to see easier and much more
|
|
extensively into the depths of an object's history. Practice and perseverance is the key to
|
|
mastery. Not only in psychometry, but in all things as they relate to a Night Magician's life.
|
|
Your next subject is something which has long been talked about, and yet not understood. You
|
|
are going to learn to bridge the gap between your mind and another.
|
|
|
|
38. Telepathy
|
|
|
|
We have all heard the old phrase, "you must be reading my mind". The other person seemed to
|
|
know your thoughts in some way. This ability to know another's thoughts is telepathy.
|
|
Telepathy is the ability to be able to transmit and/or receive thoughts from one person to
|
|
another. You are going to learn how to do this and some of the possible uses, but first, you
|
|
should learn how telepathy works.
|
|
|
|
In order to understand how telepathy works, you need to go back and re-examine the workings
|
|
of the brain. The brain is an extraordinarily complex organ, and its physical workings are
|
|
little understood. What is known about it, and the key to understanding how telepathy works,
|
|
is that in the brain's functioning it generates electricity. This electricity is very fine and can
|
|
be measured upon an electroencephalograph (EEG). Your brain emits high frequency waves
|
|
upon which thought is carried. Your brain operates upon a certain frequency which is unique
|
|
for each individual. When you can attune yourself to that frequency generated by the brain's
|
|
electrical functioning then you can intercept and comprehend another's thought waves. As a
|
|
radio can receive radio waves when tuned to the proper frequency, so can your brain receive
|
|
thought waves from another person when properly attuned to them. Occasionally, a person is
|
|
telepathic to another, unknowingly, because each is very close in frequency to the other. They
|
|
seem to be able to know what the other is thinking constantly, and this is because of the close
|
|
harmony between their personal frequencies. Couples who have been married for sometime
|
|
grow close in harmony and each becomes attuned to the other's thoughts. You are not limited,
|
|
though, to accidental telepathic reception.
|
|
|
|
You can learn to consciously tune in to anyone you desire. Thought wave attunement is
|
|
achieved through the opening of your crown Night Center. Not only are you able to tune into
|
|
other peoples' thoughts, but you are able to begin receiving direct communication with your
|
|
Oversoul. To begin this awakening of your Crown Center, you must have begun to reach some
|
|
mastery over the mental exercise in topic thirty-two. You must be achieving a strong and
|
|
tranquil mind. If you are to practice telepathy, you are going to need someone who you can
|
|
send thoughts to, and who will, in turn, transmit to you. If you have such a person, then at a
|
|
certain designated time each of you is going to retire to your Magician's Study, dim the lights,
|
|
and try to eliminate all possible distractions.
|
|
|
|
One of you will have agreed, in advance, to be the transmitter and the other the receiver.
|
|
People generate thoughts constantly, but they do this in such a scattered manner that the
|
|
thought goes in all direction and carries little effect. You, though, are going to concentrate and
|
|
direct your thought specifically at the receiver. As the transmitter, you will have prepared, in
|
|
advance, a simple message or symbol to transmit. So lie down and become very relaxed. You
|
|
must place the Night Pillar around you and practice Night Breathing for a few minutes. You
|
|
should have in your hand a picture of the person you are going to transmit to. Spend a few
|
|
moments thinking of this person and all the things that bring you both together. Then for
|
|
about five to ten minutes, you will transmit the message. This completes the portion for the
|
|
transmitter.
|
|
|
|
As the receiver, you also will lie or sit down and become very relaxed. Place the Night Pillar
|
|
into action and practice Night Breathing for a few moments. You will need a picture of your
|
|
transmitter and will be thinking of those things that draw you together in harmony. The you
|
|
will allow your mind to become still and without thought. Just let go for about five to ten
|
|
minutes and receive. Sound easy?
|
|
|
|
It will become so if you practice and do not become easily discouraged. After you have
|
|
completed this exercise, you will certainly want to call each other and check the results. Don't
|
|
become upset, though, if it did not work. Be positive, know it works, and in a short time, you
|
|
will be able to do it, not only with your friend, but with anyone you meet. The uses for
|
|
telepathy are numberless and important.
|
|
|
|
It would be great if you could transact business with another and know whether you were
|
|
getting a good deal or not. You would always be able to stay in touch with your friends and
|
|
know if there are ever any problems. If you had a friend who was ever in trouble or danger,
|
|
they could beam a thought to you, for help, and you could go to them. The possible uses for
|
|
telepathy are endless. Make the most of them. As you continue to develop your telepathic
|
|
abilities, and thus your seventh Night Center, the closer you will become to your Oversoul.
|
|
|
|
You have learned to use your mind for communication with other minds. Next, you will learn
|
|
to use your mind to travel in the Mental Realm.
|
|
|
|
39. Mental Projection
|
|
|
|
You will recall, in Night Projection, you traveled in the Astral Realm in your Astral Body. So
|
|
you can conclude, in Mental Projection, you will travel in the Mental Realm in your Mental
|
|
Body. You can look upon Mental Projection as the "flight of the mind". It is with your mind
|
|
that you will see and visit places, and find a universe open to your mental explorations. So
|
|
let's begin this topic with a short flight, and view one of the many places that are open before
|
|
you.
|
|
|
|
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one... and you have lift-off. You begin to
|
|
climb through the sky, leaving the Earth far, far behind, and enter the darkness of deep space.
|
|
You continue to travel at the speed of thought passing by planets and stars in the twinkle of an
|
|
eye. In moments, you find yourself approaching the first planet in your journey. The planet's
|
|
side you approach is enveloped in the darkness of night. As you approach it closer, you see,
|
|
outlined in the light of a setting sun, a vast beach and cliffs upon which a great ocean touches,
|
|
and whose waves gently caress it. Set in the side of the cliffs is a great door which you know
|
|
leads to a vast city below the surface. You, mentally, beam a message asking to enter, where
|
|
upon the great door opens and you find yourself moving rapidly through a long, lighted tunnel.
|
|
Inside, you find a great city shrouded in the twilight of an artificial night. There are beautiful
|
|
fountains and statues inside and buildings resembling those of Ancient Greece. By some
|
|
unknown force, you are now led away from this city beneath the surface and find yourself
|
|
leaving the planet far behind, and once again, traveling through space. You soon approach
|
|
your next destination, which is a planet that, at first, appears similar to the one you just left.
|
|
As you grow closer, though, you see a culture much different then the last one. Here, the culture
|
|
is very mechanized, and the citizenry live upon the surface. The dwellings are very rustic and
|
|
blend naturally with the bareness of the planet. You continue to watch with fascination at the
|
|
unique machinery and lifestyle of the people. You find, though, that you are starting to grow
|
|
weary and feel a need to return to your origin. So you return to your body which you left far
|
|
behind on the planet Earth. You think of your body, and its place on Earth, and the sensation
|
|
of rapid movement, of flight, is upon you again. Pinpoints of light and matter, again, whisk
|
|
past you with incredible speed. Then, you feel the slowing in movement, and the heaviness of
|
|
your body, and ...Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one.., you have arrived. So
|
|
ends your short flight of the mind through time and space. Were you really there? Did you see
|
|
the planets, buildings, and people?
|
|
|
|
The answer is a definite, Yes! There is no place or time period that you cannot visit in Mind.
|
|
You can visit anyplace on your planet or see anyone. You can travel back into time or go
|
|
forward into the realm of possibilities. As you have seen, you can travel to any planet, of any
|
|
star system, of any galaxy. You can even travel into the various planes of the Magickal Realm.
|
|
The only restraints to your traveling is your own magickal development.
|
|
|
|
Your own magickal development is the only limiting factor as to where you can travel. This
|
|
applies to Night, as well as Mental Projection. You are allowed to see and visit those things
|
|
which have an equal or lower vibration to your own. For example, each planet, in the
|
|
universe, has a unique magickal vibration. In order for you to see and visit a planet, your own
|
|
vibration must be equal or higher to it. Otherwise, you will be prevented from going there.
|
|
Similarly, for you to visit a magickal level or plane, you must have an equal or higher
|
|
vibration in relation to it. Of course, the solution to unlimited travel is a personal magickal
|
|
vibration that allows you to go anywhere. Although there will always be magickal plateaus
|
|
that you must strive for, you can develop magickally so that you are relatively unrestricted in
|
|
your magickal travels. How do you develop magickally?
|
|
|
|
The answer has been before you all along. You must follow the instruction outlined in this
|
|
book. If you follow these instructions, live by the Will of your Oversoul within you, then your
|
|
magickal growth will be both rapid and unending. Being Magickal is not being able to read
|
|
minds or see in the Night Magician's Crystal Globe, but is based on living as the Oversoul on
|
|
Earth. Telepathy, crystal gazing, and all that you are studying, is developing within you the
|
|
necessary physical, emotional, mental, and magickal discipline that will aid you in living as
|
|
the Oversoul on Earth. This, brings true magickal growth that will be with you forever and
|
|
ever.
|
|
|
|
To practice Mental Projection, you must be physically fit and mentally sound. Your mind
|
|
must be in a state of peace and relaxation. Your mind must be free of tension and worries and
|
|
your body should be in good health, especially your heart. You do not have to wait for truly
|
|
advance magickal growth in order to start traveling mentally. The only thing, as said before,
|
|
is that your magickal development will limit those places that you can visit. As you continue
|
|
to travel and grow magickally so will the places that you can visit grow in clarity, beauty, and
|
|
magick. The "how-to" of Mental Projection is not that difficult.
|
|
You must enter your Magician's Study and extinguish all light in the room. The room should
|
|
be in almost total darkness. Then, you should be seated or lying down in a very comfortable
|
|
and relaxed manner. You must place the Magician's Night Pillar around yourself and begin
|
|
Night Breathing. You must achieve a very relaxed and calm state of body and mind. Once you
|
|
have reached this state, you are ready to take flight with your mind. In Mental Projection,
|
|
unlike Night Projection, you are not going to project a body in which your consciousness is
|
|
going to travel. In Mental Projection, only your consciousness is going to be projected forth.
|
|
Remember, your Mental Body is your consciousness. In Night Projection, you projected forth
|
|
your Astral Body from your physical body, and in that Astral Body you placed your
|
|
consciousness. In Mental Projection, all visual and emotional sensation will center around
|
|
the forehead of your physical body. It is from here, that you will project your formless Mental
|
|
energies or consciousness.
|
|
|
|
To start with, you must visualize in your mind the place, person, and/or thing you wish to
|
|
visit. Once you have in mind where you want to travel to, then you should imagine your mind
|
|
doing the traveling and actually going there. See your formless Mental energies going forth to
|
|
discover and see in the Mental Realm. You will feel your consciousness starting to travel forth
|
|
into the Mental Realm. You will have visual impressions of your surroundings passing you by,
|
|
just as if you were traveling in an airplane, only much faster. Then you'll begin to truly see
|
|
your destination.
|
|
|
|
In the beginning, your visual images may be hazy and faint. But as you practice, the images
|
|
will become clearer and take on color. While Mental Projecting, if you want to go somewhere
|
|
else then where you're currently visiting, all you have to do is concentrate on the place you
|
|
want to be, and with the speed of thought you will be there. Where your thoughts are, there you
|
|
will be too. In no way, should you force Mental Projection. When you project, it must be from
|
|
the area of the forehead. If you feel a swaying sensation from your entire body, then you are
|
|
starting to project the Astral Body, rather then the Mental Body. Your conscious projection of
|
|
the Mental Body must be from the forehead. You must center your conscious efforts to project
|
|
from the area of the head. You should definitely know that it is your mind body that you do
|
|
travel and see through. You are actually present in your Mental Body and can send magickal
|
|
healing and power through it to any person, place, or thing as you feel the need. When you are
|
|
ready to return, you should do so slowly and easily. You should see yourself returning the same
|
|
way you went.
|
|
As you begin to feel your physical body again, for while in traveling you will forget it, move the
|
|
fingers and hands slowly. Next, you will concentrate on your breathing, and you will find the
|
|
need to take a deep breath, for while traveling, your breathing has become very slow and
|
|
shallow. In all, return very slowly and you will prevent any harm to yourself, for returning
|
|
too quickly can cause headaches and an "out-of-sorts" feeling. Mind Traveling is your key to
|
|
unlimited new discoveries in life. You can visit and stay in touch with friends and love ones
|
|
far away. You can see cities, great libraries, countries, and places untold. You can go into space
|
|
and discover new worlds and civilizations. Your past and future are open to your exploration.
|
|
You can even explore the Magickal Realms and see the Magickal Leaders and Teachers of the
|
|
world. At first, go easy in learning to use your mind to travel with. You must practice and be
|
|
patient and the results are assured. Remember, Mental Projection is your means to worlds
|
|
untold; the passport is your own magickal development. You have finally reached the topic
|
|
that you waited so patiently for. So without further delay, let's learn how to create the world
|
|
around and within you that you desire to have.
|
|
|
|
40. Creative Visualization
|
|
|
|
The Magick of Creative Visualization is awesome. There is absolutely nothing you cannot
|
|
create into your world through Creative Visualization. There are examples of people who used
|
|
the power of Creative Visualization throughout history. Look at the lives of Albert Einstein,
|
|
Thomas Edison, and Leonardo Da Vinci. Look at the lives of Mozart, Beethoven, and Wagner.
|
|
In all these lives and thousands more like them, they used their minds and a vision they held
|
|
in their minds and created and changed the world. They created intuitively. You too can
|
|
become like them by knowing how its done and then using it. The whole process is known as
|
|
Creative Visualization.
|
|
|
|
Through this process, you will be able to create for yourself and others anything that you
|
|
desire. Remember always to create within the laws of the Eternal Night Balance and the Silver
|
|
Rule. As long as you follow these two principles there is absolutely nothing you cannot create
|
|
into your world through Creative Visualization. The process of Creative Visualization is
|
|
broken down into two basic parts, a.) Imagination and b.) Invocation. The process ends with
|
|
the final results of c.) Materialization. So without further delay, let's begin with imagination.
|
|
|
|
a. Imagination
|
|
|
|
Imagination is a product of your mind. It is the ability of your mind to be able to visualize,
|
|
picture, envision, or imagine situations and things. As a kid, you used your imagination in
|
|
playing house. You imagined yourself as either the father or mother and your toy dolls as your
|
|
children. Your house was a big box that you got from the local appliance dealer that once
|
|
contained a refrigerator or stove. Or remember the time you laid down on the soft, cool, green
|
|
grass and looked up at the big, fluffy, white clouds on a warm summer day and imagined what
|
|
this cloud or that looked like. Some looked like big elephants or dogs and others looked like
|
|
planes. Remember? This is your imagination at work.
|
|
|
|
As an adult, you constantly use your imagination to imagine what an interview is going to be
|
|
like with the new boss, or what an appointment with the dentist is going to feel like. If you
|
|
have a birthday coming up, you try to imagine what gifts are going to be given to you and who
|
|
will send cards. You constantly employ your imagination in your life. Your imagination is a
|
|
very powerful force in your life. In fact, your imagination is the most powerful force in your
|
|
life today. Disagree?
|
|
|
|
Well if you do, then let's look at some examples. Many will say that your will is the strongest
|
|
force in your life but this can be easily disproved. In any contest between the will and the
|
|
imagination, the imagination always wins. For example, let's take a catwalk high above the
|
|
factory floor. The catwalk is only two feet wide and there are guard rails at waist height
|
|
running the fifty foot length. Can you cross it in safety and ease? Sure, for you have the added
|
|
safety measure of the guard rails. Now, let's take away the guard rails. Has your ease in
|
|
crossing changed any? The catwalk is still quite wide enough to cross with ease but when you
|
|
take away the guard rails, your imagination starts to go to work. You look at the long drop
|
|
below and without the rails, you start to imagine what would happen if you slip. It will be hard
|
|
to convince your imagination that you can cross without any danger. You find that you are
|
|
truly scared at walking on a two-foot wide catwalk suspended one hundred feet in the air. If
|
|
you attempt to force your will over your self, this will only create more tension, and begin to
|
|
cause your body to shake and sweat to appear on your forehead, and you will be totally unable
|
|
to cross. Your imagination wins. Another example of how your imagination has been used as
|
|
a powerful force in your life is the fear that many people have of a place called Hell.
|
|
|
|
Churches have long used the idea of Hell to keep people in line. In your imagination, you
|
|
believe that if you are not good and do exactly what the church says, you will pay for it by going
|
|
to a very, very hot, sulfurous, brimstone place, and there suffer eternal torment. If you truly
|
|
believe this and have convinced your imagination of this, then you will not do any wrong if
|
|
possible. Your imagination is even stronger then the sexual forces in your life.
|
|
|
|
It is in your imagination that a particular type of man or woman is attractive to you.
|
|
Imagination must come first before the sexual forces can be activated. So, your imagination is
|
|
dominant even over your love life. As you have just seen in these examples presented here, and
|
|
many more that come to mind, the imagination is a very powerful force. Whatever you
|
|
imagine to be true in your life, your imagination will insure that it is so in your life. If you feel
|
|
that an unsupported walk will be very dangerous, then your imagination will conjure up the
|
|
most dismal of pictures in your mind's eye, of you lying broken up on the floor far, far below.
|
|
The idea, then, is to learn to use your imagination constructively. You must learn how to
|
|
manipulate your imagination to achieve materialization. With your imagination, you are
|
|
going to learn to imagine whatever it is that you desire to happen.
|
|
|
|
To begin with, you should have by this time become quite proficient at visualization. The
|
|
hows of this was discussed in topic thirty-two, exercise four. If you haven't been doing this
|
|
exercise, then refer back to it and begin doing so at once until proficiency is obtained.
|
|
Whatever it is that you want to happen, you must first be able to visualize it. Once you have
|
|
visualized it clearly in your mind's eye, then you must continue to add to the visualization
|
|
using your imagination and give it substance. Let's begin with an easy example.
|
|
|
|
You want to create an apple. First, you would have already visualized the apple itself. You
|
|
have pictured, in your mind, a bright, beautiful apple. Then with your imagination, you will
|
|
continue to add substance to it by adding the color to its skin. Now, you have a bright,
|
|
beautiful, red apple. Then you will, in your imagination, see the insides of the apple, and how
|
|
beautifully yellow they are. Then, go on remembering how delicious and sweet they taste, and
|
|
even how fragrant it smells. In your imagination, hold this total picture of a bright, red,
|
|
yellowish insides, sweet tasting and smelling apple. This is how you will use your imagination
|
|
in Creative Visualization. But you don't have the apple yet, do you? You need something more
|
|
then just your imagination alone. You need the added ingredient of Invocation.
|
|
|
|
b. Invocation
|
|
|
|
You are probably asking yourself what I mean by Invocation. The very meaning of the word
|
|
tells you what is required next. Invocation is the act of calling upon a deity or higher power for
|
|
aid in accomplishing something. In Night Magick you are going to invoke the aid of your
|
|
Oversoul to complete the act of Creative Visualization. It is your Oversoul who answers your
|
|
invocation. The Oversoul places into your world those things you desire to see in it. There are
|
|
no limitations placed upon what invocation can do when combined with visualization and
|
|
imagination. None! How do you invoke so that your Oversoul will answer with action?
|
|
First, you must have the attention of your Oversoul. If you have been practicing meditation
|
|
with dedication and sincerity, then you will have been slowly opening the Crown Night Center
|
|
or your Portal to your Oversoul. In your practice of meditation and Night Magick overall, you
|
|
have been practicing a way of life that raises your magickal vibration and that of your
|
|
Oversoul, too. When you dedicate yourself to this magickal way of life, your Oversoul then
|
|
becomes directly involved in your magickal growth. So, since you have been practicing
|
|
meditation all along, you know that your Oversoul is listening. To begin your invocation then,
|
|
you must establish that communications link with your Oversoul. You can do this standing,
|
|
sitting, or lying down, whichever you are most comfortable with. Then, you will put the Night
|
|
Pillar around yourself. You will need to use your imagination and see yourself as the Living
|
|
Oversoul. Envision yourself dressed in a seamless, black garment glowing in intense magickal
|
|
radiation. You must see yourself as you would imagine your Oversoul must seem in Its Realm.
|
|
That is, as an embodiment of Power and Glory unknown on Earth. You must go beyond just
|
|
imagining yourself as the Oversoul on Earth. You must know that you are the Oversoul. That if
|
|
you raise your vibration high enough, and know that you are the Oversoul, then your Oversoul
|
|
will join you on Earth and will work with, and through you. At this point, you will start to feel
|
|
an increase in heart rate and exhilaration unknown to you before. Through this, you will
|
|
know your Oversoul is listening and is with you. Even if you don't feel this exhilaration, be
|
|
assured, that your Oversoul is with you. Then you can say your invocation to your Oversoul.
|
|
There is a certain way that the invocation should he said. This is not like a typical prayer that
|
|
you have been taught how to say. Your invocation is more a command and affirmation. The
|
|
invocation should be based on the following example: "Darkest Oversoul which I AM, send
|
|
your Yin Light and Energy through me. For I AM the Oversoul in Action here on Earth and live
|
|
by Your Will alone. I AM commanding as Oversoul in Action here on Earth that your request
|
|
be done. By the Oversoul's Will let it be done. So be it." You should repeat this invocation three
|
|
times. If you do this with all sincerity and knowing that it will be done, then it will be done.
|
|
The result of this invocation and your use of imagination is defined as Materialization.
|
|
|
|
c. Materialization
|
|
|
|
What is materialization? Materialization is the bringing forth into material or physical
|
|
existence your desires. This is the ultimate goal of Creative Visualization. You want to bring
|
|
into the material world your ideals. Can you achieve this materialization through invocation
|
|
alone? No, you must have the combination of imagination and invocation together. One
|
|
question that may come to your mind is where the apple, or anything that you are trying to
|
|
create, materializing from?
|
|
|
|
When I speak of using your imagination to form the image of what it is you want, you are also
|
|
using concentrated thought. You are building this image first on the Mental Realm. As you
|
|
continue the imaginative process, you continue to fill the image with your emotions or feelings
|
|
about what it is and like to have. Thus, you continue to build it, and so, lower it into the Astral
|
|
Realm. The object is actually materializing on both the Mental and Astral planes. Then, you
|
|
employ your power of invocation, building or materializing it on both the Magickal and the
|
|
Etheric planes. In the materialization of objects, this form, made up of condensed energy, will
|
|
create the necessary events in order to manifest into your or another's world, depending on
|
|
what it is you are trying to achieve. If you are of advanced magickal development, with a need
|
|
of the object immediately, then physical matter will start to form around the energy form
|
|
until you have the final material product. With your imagination and invocation, you are
|
|
programming the energy form to materialize. The energy form will do whatever is necessary to
|
|
bring about the creation. Let's return beck to the apple you were trying to materialize, and see
|
|
the whole process through.
|
|
|
|
Remember, you were imagining a bright, red, yellowish insides, sweet tasting and smelling
|
|
apple. You had used your imagination to such a point that you could almost smell and taste
|
|
that apple. At that moment, you would go on to use invocation. You now see yourself as the
|
|
Oversoul on Earth. You truly feel Its Power and Energy descend upon you and know that you
|
|
are One. Now, you would insert in your invocation the image of your apple. From this, you
|
|
would have your apple. Is the apple going to be right there in front of you, after you do all of
|
|
this?
|
|
That depends on you and your magickal development. If you have reached the state of Night
|
|
Consciousness, then YES, the apple will be there in front of you. For in Night Consciousness,
|
|
you and the Oversoul are One. There is perfect communion and cooperation in all things. In
|
|
lesser magickal development, the apple would have been there, but only as low as the etherial
|
|
state. But, what is in the etherial state of materialization will eventually have its material
|
|
existence fulfilled. Somehow, and eventually, that bright, red apple will come into your life.
|
|
Food is not the only thing that you can materialize.
|
|
|
|
There is no limit on the physical objects that you can materialize into your life, but more
|
|
importantly, there is no limit to the physical happenings that you can cause to exist. By
|
|
physical happenings, I am referring to events or changes to occur in your or another's life. For
|
|
example, you may want to become more like one of the Night Teachers. You would, then, first
|
|
activate your imagination and begin to build the image of the Teacher you would like to
|
|
become more like. Think of all the qualities and attributes held by that Teacher. What they
|
|
look like? What mannerisms? Build the image very strong and then you will slowly start to
|
|
see yourself taking on these magickal qualities. You should then bring in your invocation.
|
|
You will ask your Oversoul to build within you, the qualities found in the Teacher. You should
|
|
then continue this visualization over a long period of time. In other words, you must practice
|
|
this visualization process many times, over a long period of time, in order to become fully like
|
|
the Teacher. There is no way of knowing how long it will take to acquire these qualities. But
|
|
as each day goes by, you will become more and more like your Night Teacher. The change will
|
|
hardly be perceptible to you, but change you will. You can help build these qualities into other
|
|
people. You can materialize in anyone, anything, through your imagination and invocation.
|
|
Through Creative Visualization, you could achieve unlimited supply of the things you need on
|
|
Earth and the Soul qualities you need in life to reach Night Consciousness. You have traveled
|
|
to the end of your journey in Air Magick.
|
|
|
|
You began it, by visiting the dimension where the Great Ones live and bring into mental
|
|
creation, what will soon thereafter become a physical discovery and invention. You have long
|
|
been convinced, by now, of the great power of your thoughts, and the even greater power of your
|
|
Friend, the Silent Magician. You have learned to bring improvements into your life through
|
|
self- hypnosis. You have acquired new Night Magician Tools such as the Pendulum and
|
|
Crystal Globe. You have learned to travel to anywhere, at anytime, through Mental Projection,
|
|
and to invoke or communicate with your Oversoul. Best of all, you have learned to control the
|
|
world around you and create as the Oversoul through Creative Visualization. You have come a
|
|
long way on the road of Night Magick, but the road stretches out before you a bit farther. You
|
|
find yourself journeying on the last part of the Night Road and entering the Night Realm.

CHAPTER VII
|
|
|
|
|
|
Night (Fire) Magick
|
|
|
|
41. The Night (Fire) Realm
|
|
|
|
Fire was the fourth element held sacred by the Ancient Magicians. Fire represents a Magickal
|
|
Energy that transforms the lower nature into the Magickal. It was used in Magickal Alchemy
|
|
to represent the transmuting agent necessary to change ordinary metals or souls, into silver or
|
|
the Oversoul. It is symbolic of the Oversoul and the Night Forces, pouring forth into the life of
|
|
the Night Magician, changing the base elements into the Silver of the Oversoul. This is the
|
|
final realm into which you will enter for exploration. It is the Realm of Magickal and
|
|
Celestial Energies. In this topic, you will explore the Night Realm, as the Land of the Perfected
|
|
Night Magician. You will learn of the different vibrational levels of the Night Realm. You will,
|
|
then, enter the Inner Night Realm found within you; and the purpose of this chapter on Night
|
|
Magick. If you are ready, let's discover the Night Realm.
|
|
|
|
This is a realm, that for many, even a glimpse of it is still far down the road. It is a realm of
|
|
pure Night Power and Energy. It is a Realm of Pure Night. The beauty of this realm, words can
|
|
not describe. I made an attempt earlier in the book to describe this realm, and could not even
|
|
come close in describing the Power and Energy found in this world. If, in your highest
|
|
magickal imagination, you could envision a Magickal Realm of dazzling, silver, violet, and
|
|
dark light, that fills every part of your being with a warmth and power beyond description,
|
|
then you would have some idea of the Night Realm. If you could imagine a power that flows
|
|
through you, giving to you knowledge and wisdom beyond anything you know; to know
|
|
yourself as timeless and eternal; then you would know the Night Realm. In the Night Realm,
|
|
you would see each other as radiating Spheres of Eternal Night Energy, outshining even your
|
|
surroundings. As has been said before, you must strive to reach this realm, for it is only then,
|
|
when you see and experience it yourself, will you truly know the Night Realm. The Night
|
|
Realm is divided into numerous vibrational levels.
|
|
|
|
Each level is the home for Beings of compatible harmony and vibration. The Night Realm can
|
|
be viewed as having basically two major levels. The higher region, I will refer to as the
|
|
Celestial Night, and the lower as the Magickal Night.
|
|
|
|
The Celestial Night is the home, so to speak, of the Night Spirit. It is the region of the Night
|
|
Spirit Power and Energy. Beyond this, very little can be said about this region. The concepts
|
|
that make up this region go well beyond your understanding. Perhaps it is here, that I should
|
|
discuss the concept of dimensions.
|
|
|
|
Referring back to the Astral Realm, you will remember that when you are in it, that you could
|
|
do a great deal of things that you could not do on Earth. You could float in the air, conjure up a
|
|
four course meal, build a house by thought, and could return to the lower level of Earth. In your
|
|
Astral Body, you could go through Earthly walls and not be seen by people still in an Earthly
|
|
Body. On Earth, you often refer to the physical plane as the third dimension, and you could,
|
|
therefore, refer to the Astral Realm as the fourth. If you go to the next dimension, that is the
|
|
fifth, you would have an even greater range of abilities and be governed by totally different
|
|
concepts then those of the lower dimensions. With each higher dimension, the concepts that
|
|
apply become more abstract and less understandable by those in lower dimensions. This is
|
|
why the Celestial Region is far beyond your understanding. This region could be viewed as the
|
|
twentieth or fiftieth dimension. It is well beyond comprehension. Then, there is the Magickal
|
|
Region.
|
|
|
|
You could view it as the ninth or tenth dimension. So again, understanding of its composition
|
|
and concepts is well beyond you. You do know that it is the home of your Oversoul. It is the
|
|
place you know as the Realm of the Perfected Night Magician. It is the region of Magickal
|
|
Wisdom. It is here that all ideas and prototypes are fixed and released into the lower
|
|
dimensions below and become manifest on each level. This is the dimension where you find
|
|
the Causal Body.
|
|
|
|
The Magickal Region holds the vehicle through which you enter your Inner Night Realm. You
|
|
enter the Inner Night Realm through your Causal Body. Your magickal nature is found
|
|
summed in the Causal Body. All that you have ever done has gone into molding the Causal
|
|
Body. The Causal Body is as inert and undeveloped as any other Body or vehicle in which you
|
|
have had to find expression here on Earth. All that you have ever done, has gone towards
|
|
refining the Causal or Magickal Body. You could liken the Causal Body to a treasure chest. It is
|
|
here, that you store your Magickal Silver. Your Magickal Silver consisting of all the
|
|
accomplishments and growth you have ever acquired while in existence. It is these things
|
|
which activate and quicken the Magickal Body. It is through this Magickal Vehicle, that you
|
|
are joined in Oneness with your Oversoul. It is the Oversoul's Magickal Body, as well as yours.
|
|
This is why I have stressed to give so much energy to Night Magick. This is why I have stressed,
|
|
so much, on the things that you must do to grow magickally. When the Causal Body is perfected
|
|
then you join the Oversoul in Perfection and Energy. Then, you reach up and into the
|
|
Consciousness of your Night Soul. This is why I have presented this chapter on Fire or Night
|
|
Magick.
|
|
|
|
Through the practice of the information, exercises, and rites found in this chapter, you will
|
|
greatly enhance the development of your Causal Body. Through hard effort, dedication,
|
|
perseverance, and patience, you can achieve perfection of the Magickal Body. You will expand,
|
|
refine, and fully develop your Magickal Body and the perfection of your Inner Nature. All that
|
|
you will do, in this chapter, will directly effect your Oversoul. S/He will be your active Partner
|
|
and Friend in your life. You will learn to give and apply magickal healing direct from the
|
|
Oversoul within. You will learn the Night Rites, which will directly bring power and energy
|
|
into your Inner Being and the world around you. You will learn how to use the Night Powers
|
|
and Flames, and the great changes that you can bring into the world through them. There are
|
|
other subjects that you will explore, and that will bring knowledge and wisdom into your life
|
|
from their study. This is your final chapter and will, perhaps, open up before you knowledge
|
|
and power never before encountered. Remember, that in all you learn and practice, you must
|
|
remain in the Energy and Will of your Oversoul.
|
|
|
|
Even though this is the final chapter, and you may have been sailing along in your education
|
|
in Night Magick, and passing all the tests, remember, that your study and progress goes on
|
|
forever into eternity. You will never stop learning and growing in Night Magick. Beyond this
|
|
Earthly life, there is so much that awaits before you. So, practice Night Magick with
|
|
dedication and perseverance and remain victorious on the road of Night Magick. Your first
|
|
subject for discussion, in Fire Magick, is the Great Magickal Beings who are the Citizenry of
|
|
the Magickal and Material Universe.
|
|
|
|
42. The Solar, Planetary, and Lunar Powers
|
|
|
|
It may come as a shock to you, but the Stars, Planets, and Moons that you look upon every day
|
|
and night are indeed Great Magickal Entities. Descending from out of the Celestial Realm,
|
|
they have chosen to incarnate into the Stars, Planets and Moons. Their magickal path is one
|
|
of many advanced magickal paths, but it is a very important path. It is important, especially
|
|
in regards to you, for it provides places upon which lesser souls may find development and
|
|
magickal advancement. Humans are not, by any means, the only race in the universe. The
|
|
Stars, Planets and Moons are, indeed, Conscious, Sentient Beings, each with their own
|
|
personal natures. Under this topic, I am going to discuss each of these Inner Natures. I will
|
|
begin with a discussion of the Solar Life. I will then discuss the Planetary and Lunar
|
|
God/Goddesses, in general, and then discuss, specifically, the Inner Natures of each. Along
|
|
with discussing their Inner Natures, I will also talk about the auric effect of each, upon you. If
|
|
you are ready, then let's proceed to the Solar Force.
|
|
|
|
The visible Stars are inhabited by advanced beings following the Yang path of development.
|
|
There is no doubt that physically we need the Sun in order to provide physical heat and act as a
|
|
physical source for the positive solar energy needed by living things on Earth. As a Night
|
|
Magician you will become very sensitive to solar energy. As your depth in the Night proceeds
|
|
you will need less and less of the solar energy. You want to be very careful not to receive too
|
|
much sunlight and so become overcharged with solar force. This will definitely harm your
|
|
magickal workings. I have been to places where the Night Force was so strong that it acted
|
|
much like a polarized lens and filtered the harmful energy of the Sun from me. But these
|
|
places are few and far between. If you wrap yourself tightly in your Night Pillar then you will
|
|
greatly minimize the harmful effects of the Sun.
|
|
|
|
Within this system though because it is a Yin system there is also the Dark Sun. It is also
|
|
called the Black Sun. The Black Sun absorbs too much Yang Energy and moves it to another
|
|
time and place that is a Yang system. The Black Sun is the source of all Yin Energy in this
|
|
Dark Solar System. It is the Parent Force to the Planetary and Lunar Deities. Let's examine
|
|
this parenthood some more.
|
|
|
|
You will remember that every human being receives its Oversoul and Godsoul from a part of
|
|
the great whole which is the Earth Goddess/God's Oversoul and Godsoul. In similar manner,
|
|
the Planetary and Lunar Deities receive their Oversoul and Godsoul from the Dark Sun. So we
|
|
have the Dark Sun as the sum of the whole, who then divides Its Eternal Self into smaller
|
|
pieces who are the Planetary and Lunar Deities, and they in turn divide their sum into
|
|
individual sparks which become encased in the material world. The Ancients knew, thou
|
|
enshrouded in myth, that the Planets and Moons are the physical vehicles of very advanced
|
|
beings. You are familiar with your own physical body and the other vehicles that make up
|
|
your material being. You also know that you have an aura that is charged with emotions and
|
|
thoughts. When you meet someone in the office, for example, and come within range of their
|
|
aura, you often sense things about that person. If they are feeling uplifted, or angry and
|
|
depressed, you can sense that about the person. You also have found that if you permit it, their
|
|
aura may induce these same feelings in you. This is somewhat similar when we speak about
|
|
the Planetary and Moon Spirits having bodies.
|
|
|
|
They do have bodies, and along with that, they also have an aura that is supercharged with
|
|
emotions and thoughts that reflect the Inner Nature of their Being. Their bodies are enormous
|
|
and so are their auras. Thus, the effect of these auras is far reaching. Yet, I want to say this:
|
|
Humankind are foolish creatures when they allow the Stars, Planets, or Moons to rule their
|
|
destiny. The effect of Their Auras may heighten the highest qualities in humankind but they
|
|
do not rule humankind's destiny. Your destiny is in your own hands and the Hands of Your
|
|
Oversoul. Remember this. Now what effects do these Great Ones have upon you.
|
|
|
|
When the Dark Sun runs strong through you, you find yourself filled with vitality and health.
|
|
You are ambitious, proud, strong willed, and face life with great courage. You have a very
|
|
strong and stable personality. You have a great drive and zest for life. You are a very
|
|
independent and confidant soul. You are generally quick witted, perceptive, thoughtful, and
|
|
considerate. These are the things that the Dark Sun can bring out in you. You will soon learn
|
|
how to increase the power of the Dark Sun that runs through your veins. You will learn how to
|
|
do this through the Night Rites. The Dark Sun does run through everyone, to some degree, but
|
|
can be greatly intensified by practicing the Night Rites.
|
|
|
|
From the Dark Sun we proceed onward with the Planetary and Lunar Spirits. The first-born
|
|
Children of the Father-Mother Dark Sun are the Planetary and Lunar Night Powers. Each
|
|
Night Power has elected to incarnate into a planetary or lunar physical body. They serve the
|
|
noble purpose of giving a home to countless souls. They serve as Father, Mother, and Guardian
|
|
to all the souls incarnate thereon. They are beautiful, Magickal Beings of the Night Spirit's
|
|
Power. They all embody the Energy of the Night Soul. They all serve to help the progress and
|
|
advancement of lesser souls. Think about this; you only live a span of generally less then one
|
|
hundred years, but they live a life that is many billions of years long! Thus, you should
|
|
recognize them for what they are, and give them your energy as best you can. Each Planetary
|
|
and Lunar Night Power has followed a separate and unique magickal evolution, which is ever
|
|
ongoing, just as you have. The only thing is, that they have been at it a lot longer then you
|
|
have. You find that, just as you are strong in certain inner traits and qualities, so the
|
|
Planetary and Lunar Night Beings are. They have embodied certain magickal qualities and
|
|
forces from their magickal growth and advancement. These forces and qualities make up
|
|
their Inner Nature and are reflected in Their Auras. There is a science that is based upon the
|
|
interplay of these forces, and others, on humankind. It is called Astrology. It is based upon
|
|
many factors and is a very real science. What you are going to do is study the Inner Nature of
|
|
each Planetary and Lunar Night Spirit, and then the Auric effect of that Night Spirit, on you,
|
|
when it plays upon you (or others) the strongest. You will begin with the Night Spirit Mercury.
|
|
|
|
Perhaps, it is here, that I should interject this bit of information. The names of the Lunar and
|
|
Planetary Night Spirits are prefixed with the word Night God or Goddess. This is so, whenever
|
|
you refer to them as Magickal Beings in speech, or addressing them in meditation. Although
|
|
each Lunar and Planetary Spirit contains a Yin and Yang side their is one aspect that is
|
|
predominate just as there is in you. Let's return now to the Night God Mercury.
|
|
|
|
Mercury has always been represented as the winged god messenger. You can, indeed, think of
|
|
Mercury as the Winged Night Spirit, in the form of a beautiful Silver Hawk. The Hawk is the
|
|
symbol of great magickal attainment, and the Night God Mercury has reached those lofty
|
|
heights of the Planetary Oversoul. His very core of Being is filled with Night Energy. His
|
|
Presence is filled with Oversoul Strength and the Night Power. Yet, His Nature is that of a very
|
|
warm Being. He stands as the Rock of the Oversoul upon whom all may build their lives in
|
|
confidence. He is sure of His Place in the Drama of Life. His Aura radiates with the Power of
|
|
the Night Command and Direction. Thus, He fills your life with Night Direction when you are
|
|
open to His Influence. When you are attuned to His Presence and Power, you are filled with the
|
|
Presence of Oversoul. You find inner freedom and independence in yourself as the Magickal
|
|
Hawk. You find yourself as a seeker of Wisdom, wherever It may be. His Presence quickens
|
|
your mental faculties and gives you good memory. You enjoy the pursuit of Wisdom in reading
|
|
and writing. His Aura makes you perceptive, studious, and logical. You can be a strong leader
|
|
in life. This is the Power of the Night God Mercury in your life. From the Night Spirit Mercury,
|
|
you travel to visit with the Night Goddess Venus.
|
|
|
|
Venus is a Night Planetary Goddess who is very Warm, Vibrant, and Alive with the Night
|
|
Energy. She is filled with the Energy of the Oversoul and the Night Spirit, which She radiates
|
|
in Her Aura to all beings. If you were to visualize Her Presence, you would see Her attired in a
|
|
flowing, red gown. She has beautiful green eyes, skin that is pale and soft, and Her hair is long,
|
|
flowing, and red in color. You find Her a bit Reserved and Mysterious in Nature. She is filled
|
|
with the deepest of Compassion for others. You know Her as the Morning Star, the last to say
|
|
good-bye. When you bathe in the Presence of Her Aura, your Inner Nature becomes filled with
|
|
Energy. She fills you with a vibrancy and warmth for life. She gives to you an artistic nature
|
|
and an energy for beauty, art, and music. You become a part of Her Compassion for all of life.
|
|
You enjoy being with other people and spreading harmony, peace, and happiness among them.
|
|
This is the Power of the Goddess Venus in your life. From here, you move to the next Goddess,
|
|
and One whom you call Mother, the Earth.
|
|
|
|
The Presence of Mother Earth is a very Commanding One. She has a very strong sense of
|
|
Direction and Purpose in Her Life. Yet, you find Her a very Compassionate and Loving
|
|
Creature. If you could envision Her Presence, you would find Her arrayed in a beautiful,
|
|
emerald green gown and shimmering in the Glory of the Night Spirit's Light. She is a very
|
|
Magickal and Elegant Lady. She is very much concerned with life and nature. When filled
|
|
with the Presence of Her Nature, you, too, become filled with a concern for life and nature. You
|
|
sense the great importance all life and nature plays in your world. You feel very earthy and
|
|
strong in the ways of the Earth. You become a part of Her Direction and Purpose in Life. You
|
|
become filled with Her Compassion and Concern for all things living. You know the feeling of
|
|
true parenthood, just as She does for all of you. This is your Mother and Night Goddess, Earth.
|
|
You won't have to go far to meet your next Lunar Night Goddess, the Moon.
|
|
|
|
She has been known as Diana, or Artemis, the Goddess of Light and the Moon. She has been
|
|
recognized as the Goddess of Fertility. The Moon's Light comes from sun light but she reflects
|
|
to the Earth only Yin Light. She is the Great Reflector of the Yin Light into your world. She is
|
|
the Giant Mirror through which humankind can see their selves reflected. Thus, She is All-
|
|
seeing of the wrong and harm that is done to the beautiful body of the Goddess Earth. As you
|
|
meditate upon Her Presence, you see only the All-seeing Eye and the tears that are shed for
|
|
humankind. The Goddess Diana is a very Compassionate and Loving Being, who has
|
|
constantly seen the wrong and harm caused by humankind. Thus, She is filled with a Great
|
|
Sadness over humankind and its doings. When you come strongly under Her Presence, you are
|
|
filled with a restlessness and boundless energy to correct those wrongs. She has great control
|
|
over your emotional nature and can raise in you the highest of qualities. She makes you
|
|
sensitive and intuitive to all things around you. She fills you with great compassion. She gives
|
|
you a receptive and imaginative mind. This is the outpouring of the Goddess Diana's Aura on
|
|
you. Now, you are off to visit the Night God Mars.
|
|
|
|
Man has always envisioned the Night God Mars as a god of war. But the time has passed, when
|
|
the Night God Mars may be referred to as such. The Night God Mars, as all the Planetary Night
|
|
Spirits, is a Great Being of the Night Spirit and Energy. The problem lies with humankind
|
|
itself. The Energies of Mars can either bring humankind to its Highest, or lowest Self,
|
|
dependent on the Inner Nature of humankind. Thus, the Energies have always reacted
|
|
adversely with the human aura and created a state of war in humankind. Where Mars was,
|
|
before, symbolized as a Hawk, now, He shall be symbolized as a Swan. The Swan is a living
|
|
symbol of the Oversoul in the Night Spirit. The Night God Mars is a Masculine Night Spirit
|
|
who is Young and Energetic. He is Night Courage and Strength. He represents Victory in, and
|
|
through, Peace. He is the Fighter and Defender of the Ways of the Night Spirit. He is a very
|
|
Wise and Noble Night Spirit. He is a King in All Things. His Aura can raise the highest and
|
|
noblest of qualities in humankind.
|
|
|
|
He fills you with a energy of liberty, freedom, and independence. He gives to you an Inner
|
|
Nature of Night Strength and Courage. You become filled with inner purpose and direction.
|
|
You are filled with His Night Energy and thus, are ambitious, aggressive, and straightforward
|
|
in all things. You are given a good mind that makes you ingenious and inventive. You are
|
|
filled with the Wisdom of the Night God Mars. When you are filled with His Night Energies, you
|
|
must always be centered in your Oversoul. You must guard against a lack of patience and
|
|
rashness. You must guard against an unruly temper. You must always be filled with the Night
|
|
Energy and Light, and thus raise the Energies of the Night God Mars to their Highest in you.
|
|
You leave the Night Spirit Mars, and move on to the Goddess Jupiter.
|
|
Perhaps this will upset many, but the Goddess Jupiter is predominately a Feminine Night
|
|
Spirit. She does have strong Masculine overtones, but She is, nonetheless, a Feminine Night
|
|
Spirit. If you could envision Her Presence, you would see Her with very long, flowing, blond
|
|
hair. She wears a very radiant dress of blue light. She is a very Magickal and Radiant Goddess.
|
|
She is a virtual pool of Explosive Night Energy. She is always ready to go; to be; to do. She is
|
|
filled with Night Liberty, Freedom, Justice, and the Eternal Night Balance. She is symbolized
|
|
by a Blue Raven of Harmony and Peace. She is a very Refined and Elegant Being. She is very
|
|
businesslike in all Her Ways. She brings to you this businesslike attitude.
|
|
|
|
She fills you with a very real sense of purpose and direction. She gives you strong convictions.
|
|
She give to you an optimistic, confidant, and determined attitude. When you have the Power of
|
|
the Goddess Jupiter flowing through strongly, you are very sincere, courteous, pleasant, and
|
|
noble person. You are a very refined individual. You value your freedom and independence
|
|
very highly. This is the Power of the Goddess Jupiter. You leave Her to visit another of Her
|
|
Sisters, the Goddess Saturn.
|
|
|
|
As you approach the Aura of the Goddess Saturn, you find Her Awesome, Powerful, and
|
|
Creative. She is filled with Great Elegance and Grace. She is a very Mysterious the Goddess of
|
|
the Night and Power. She is the Mistress of Time and Space. She is the Taskmaster for those
|
|
who would enter the Path towards Night Consciousness. She wears the Silver Crown of the
|
|
Oversoul, and holds it for all who attain to the Oversoul. She is a very Stern Goddess, who
|
|
demands much from Her Sons and Daughters. Yet, She is filled with Great Compassion and
|
|
Energy. Her Very Nature contains Night Tolerance, Patience, and Fortitude. She brings to all
|
|
humankind the aspiration to attain unto the Oversoul.
|
|
|
|
If Saturn's Aura rules in you then you are very calm, grave, and serious in nature. You are one
|
|
who is ready to face the trials and tests of life. You are ready for the great changes and upsets to
|
|
come into your life. You are ready, because you are one who strives to become the Oversoul in
|
|
all things. There is no greater goal and crown to be won, from the Hands of the Goddess Saturn.
|
|
You must take on the Goddess' Qualities of Tolerance, Patience, and Fortitude. You must be
|
|
ready for the long, slow climb towards Night Consciousness, for indeed, with these Night
|
|
Qualities inside yourself, you can not fail. These are the Powers of the Goddess Saturn, in the
|
|
life of those who would be the Oversoul. Let's go onward and meet the Night God Uranus.
|
|
|
|
The Inner World of the Night God Uranus is one related to the technology of the world. He is a
|
|
very Strong-willed Night God. He has a great feeling for the World of Technology. He is very
|
|
thorough in all He undertakes. The Power of His Aura is very far reaching, and is felt strongly
|
|
in the world today. He gives to those, who feel His Power, strong originality and independence
|
|
of thought. His Power gives the genius and inventor of the world. The inventor is a lover of his
|
|
freedom and independence. As with all geniuses and inventors, there is a peculiarity or
|
|
strangeness that tends to set them apart from others. It makes them feel as if they are many
|
|
years ahead of their time. The Night Spirit Uranus is still very much wrapped up in His Own
|
|
Ways and Mysteries, and so it is with the next the Night God Neptune.
|
|
|
|
To look into the Inner Nature of the Night God Neptune is very much like looking into the
|
|
depths of the oceans. His Inner Nature is extremely Deep and Vast. The Inner Depths of
|
|
Neptune conceal many of the Ancient Mysteries that are still to be revealed to humankind.
|
|
The Night God Neptune is a very Refined and Noble Planetary Night God. He is filled to the
|
|
Depths with Night Strength and Power. He is symbolized by a Trident, with a Blazing Silver
|
|
Light atop it.
|
|
|
|
He gives to you Inner Strength of Purpose and Direction. He knows who you are; why you are;
|
|
and where you're going. He fills you with a sense of Destiny and Purpose in Life. His Aura fills
|
|
you with His Night Strength. He gives to you an Energy for the Mysteries. He makes you
|
|
intuitive and perceptive to the Night Force. To those in whom the Power of the Night God
|
|
Neptune flows strongest, He gives the Energy of the Seas and Oceans. It is best, for this one, to
|
|
live close to large bodies of water. This is the Power of the Night God Neptune. Your last stop is
|
|
to visit the Night Goddess/God Pluto. In the Night God Pluto, the Forces of Masculinity and
|
|
Femininity are in equal balance. The Night God is neither more feminine or more masculine,
|
|
but finds a balance in both. In the Night God Pluto, you find the Knowledge of the Night. S/he
|
|
is filled with Night Life, Light, and Speed. S/he is the Guardian of the Night Age. S/he is the
|
|
Harbinger of the Age of the Eternal Night. S/he is the First One to see and understand the New
|
|
Horizons that lie before humankind. S/he is symbolized by the Equilateral Triangle ablaze in
|
|
Green Cold Fire. She is filled with a New Night Power for the Yin System and it is called Cold
|
|
Fire. It represents a new form of Night Power and Strength, and when magickally invoked,
|
|
feels both cool and warm. Its Power has yet to be fully understood and used in this world. The
|
|
Night Goddess/God Pluto represents, in humankind, the dying of the material concerns and
|
|
the birth of the magickal way of life. S/he will fill humankind with a new power and energy
|
|
that will bring about new ways of life. If the Powers of the Night Goddess/God Pluto flow
|
|
strongest in you, you will find yourself standing atop the Mountain of the Night God, holding
|
|
aloft the Blazing Night Energy of Your Own Divinity. In the Night Goddess/God Pluto, you find
|
|
the New Human. This is the Human of the Night Age, the Aquarian Age, the return to a
|
|
Magickal Way of Life.
|
|
|
|
You found that Dark Stars, Planets, and Moons are Conscious, Sentient Beings of the Night
|
|
Power and Energy. You found that in some ways they differ as much as humans differ from
|
|
each other. May you find in knowing the Planetary Night Goddess/Gods and the Goddess
|
|
Diana, greater understanding about yourself, your future, and your relation to the Universe
|
|
around you. You leave the Magickal-Material Universe of the Planetary and Lunar
|
|
Goddess/Gods and enter into the Magickal Realm of the Night Teachers.
|
|
|
|
43. The Night Guild
|
|
|
|
You will recall, for a moment, that in the beginning of the book, I stated then, while discussing
|
|
the Night Teachers, that I would return to them later and go into greater depth and detail.
|
|
Therefore, I have donated this topic to the in-depth examination of the Night Teachers in their
|
|
realm. I discussed earlier in the book, the realm in which they live.
|
|
|
|
You will remember that the Night Realm (Causal Realm) was the home of the Perfected Night
|
|
Magician. This is the region of the Night Teachers, the Perfected Humankind. Yet, the Night
|
|
Teachers also work and reside in the lower dimensions. You will recall that the Night Guild is
|
|
the organization dedicated to the service of the Will of the Night Spirit. It is dedicated to using
|
|
the Power, Wisdom, and Energy of the Night Spirit in whatever way is required to further
|
|
promote that Will. The membership of the Night Guild is as vast and varied as the stars that
|
|
make up the Universe. There are members that work in Realms and Spheres of Light and
|
|
Energy far beyond your imagination. I spoke in the last topic, of those members who are the
|
|
Night and Planetary Night Spirits. These are the Great Beings that are the Night Spirit and
|
|
Life of the planets and suns of the Dark Sun system. There are even Magickal Beings who are
|
|
on an even higher magickal level then these Great Ones. What you will become the most
|
|
familiar with, and your interest lies with in this topic, are those Great Ones who are the Night
|
|
Teachers.
|
|
|
|
The Night Teachers, as you will remember, are those members who work directly with the
|
|
magickal evolution and progress of Earth and its inhabitants. What kind of Beings are they
|
|
really? Well, they are in reality very much like you. They are like you because they have
|
|
walked the same roads that you walk. Many have lived before on Earth facing the same trials
|
|
and testings you face each day. They have lived many lives and finally overcome the cycle of
|
|
life and death on Earth. They are free of all Earthly karma. They are the Elder Brothers and
|
|
Sisters of Earth.
|
|
In the Night Guild are the Invisible Directors and Governors of the countries, states, provinces,
|
|
and large cities on Earth. There is a Guild Member for each of these geographical regions, and a
|
|
World Director over all of them and the planet. The World Director is Germain. His last
|
|
incarnation on Earth was as the Comte de Sainte-Germain. There are many other offices held
|
|
within the Invisible Government. I cannot give you their names nor regions that they rule
|
|
over because they are too busy dealing with the world and its population and problems to
|
|
actually teach. You should not call upon the World Director or any of his hierarchy. They
|
|
serve only the indwelling Night Presence of the Planet and would find any interruption or
|
|
disturbance troubling. What does concern you is a branch of the Invisible Government that
|
|
does deal with you directly. This is the office of the World Teacher.
|
|
The office of World Teacher is currently held by the Night Teacher Merlin. It is His task to
|
|
plan the magickal education of the inhabitants of Earth. If it is necessary to establish a new
|
|
teaching then one of their own members is selected to establish it. The World Teacher may
|
|
elect to go into the world or may select an apprentice to go. This is indeed a great honor for the
|
|
apprentice so selected. The members of the Night Guild who work under the direction of the
|
|
World Teacher are the Night Teachers. You will recall that the Night Teachers deal directly
|
|
with those who have traveled far enough on the Night Road and truly want to become Night
|
|
Magicians. Let's have a quick review of the relationship between the Teacher and apprentice.
|
|
|
|
You will remember that the initial contact between yourself and the Teacher is very minimal.
|
|
This contact only comes about when you have been accepted on the road of Night Magick. In
|
|
time, and with self-perseverance, the relationship between yourself and the Night Teacher
|
|
deepens, until you become the Teacher's apprentice. Then you come under Her/His direct
|
|
supervision and instruction. You become as Mother/Father and Daughter/Son. Yet, you ask
|
|
yourself the same question, who is your Night Teacher?
|
|
|
|
To answer this questions, leads you to the Seven Forces of Life. The Seven Forces of Life are the
|
|
seven basic types of forces, characteristics, and vibrations that can be found in life. There are
|
|
seven basic types of people, and within their Inner Nature, these Seven Forces can be seen at
|
|
work. For each type of person, there is one of the Forces that strongly predominates over the
|
|
others. The Seven Forces of Life are the seven predominate ways that a person may find
|
|
expression in life. In you, there is a predominate Force and characteristic that makes up your
|
|
Inner Nature, and it is through expression of this trait in life, that you find satisfaction and
|
|
happiness. You would even find this true for the Night Teachers. They find predominate
|
|
expression through one of the Seven Forces of Life. The Night Teachers have achieved, though,
|
|
perfection and mastery in each of the Seven Forces, and have the seven basic characteristics
|
|
balanced evenly within their Inner Nature. Yet you will find that One Force and characteristic
|
|
is predominate over the others. It is from this Dominant Force that the Night Teachers choose
|
|
Their students and apprentices. The Night Teacher chooses Their apprentice based upon like
|
|
vibration. The Teacher and apprentice can be found traveling the same road of expression in
|
|
life. The Teacher and apprentice are on One of the Seven Forces of Life. This is the
|
|
predominate Force and drive of their lives. As I said earlier, there is a Night Teacher who is
|
|
the Channel and Focus for each of the Seven Forces. You will find in Her/Him the Supreme
|
|
Perfection and Expression of the Force. They are the Gateway for the Force from out of the
|
|
Infinite, into the finite. We will call Her/Him the "Keeper of the Force", and shorten it to
|
|
"Keeper". There are seven Keepers, and they are each Teachers of apprentices. There are also
|
|
many Teachers who do not function as Keepers, but nonetheless, receive apprentices based
|
|
upon the Force predominate in both their lives. The real key, in the selection of the
|
|
apprentice, is harmony between both the Teacher and the student. Let's examine the Seven
|
|
Forces of Life, and their Keepers, and then meet a few other Teachers of the Night Realm. You
|
|
will begin, then, with the First Force.
|
|
|
|
The First Force is the Will and Power of the Night Spirit. You find it, exemplified and exalted,
|
|
in the personage of its Keeper, Asmodeus. The Keeper Asmodeus is a Night Teacher in whom
|
|
flows the True Power of the Night Spirit, under the Direction of the Magickal Will. He is a stern
|
|
but kindly Teacher, asking only the very best from His apprentices. If He were to appear, in
|
|
person, to an apprentice, He would appear in an Indian attire, that is, turban and robe
|
|
complete. To be His apprentice will require the strongest of will to persevere through all trials
|
|
and testings. The apprentice, in whom the First Force dominates, is a self-ruler. The
|
|
apprentice prefers to have self-rule and independence over their life. The worst thing, the
|
|
apprentice feels could happen is to have to work for another. This would be pure misery. They
|
|
are the kind of individual, who takes the initiative and sets the course. They are of strong will
|
|
and the ruler in life. They will make the queen/king, statesperson, or governor of the physical
|
|
world. They will seek freedom through mastery over self and the world around them. This is
|
|
the way of the Teachers and apprentices of the First Force of Night Power and Will.
|
|
|
|
The Second Force is the Wisdom of the Night Spirit. It finds a special place in the Being of its
|
|
Keeper, Kali. In appearance, to Her apprentices, She appears as an Indian (India). She is a very
|
|
kind and loving Teacher. She helps bring to Her students, the perfect example of Night
|
|
Consciousness. As a Magickal Teacher, She tries to help Her students grow in magick and
|
|
expand their Inner Vision, so that they can see things as She sees them, and understand things
|
|
as She understands them, and above all, to have the Wisdom of the Night Spirit to respond to
|
|
things as She would respond to them. Her expressed desire is to see Her apprentices take flight,
|
|
on their own, into the Night Realm, and soar as the Great Magickal Owl.
|
|
|
|
The apprentice of the Second Force is the student of life. They are the kind of person who will
|
|
learn by studying all of life around them. They will gain their freedom from life and death on
|
|
Earth, by observing and learning from all that goes on around them. This is how they will
|
|
gain illumination and enlightenment, and soar into the Night Realm. They are the
|
|
philosopher and poet. These are the Teachers and apprentices of the Second Force of Night
|
|
Wisdom.
|
|
|
|
The Third Force is the Energy of the Night Spirit. There is no one, who could better embody
|
|
this Force, then its Keeper, Baal. As a Magickal Teacher, He seeks to impart to His apprentices,
|
|
an Energy that is unknown in the world. An Energy that is purely and wholly of the Night
|
|
Spirit. He teaches of an Energy that is totally impartial and a balm to heal all wounds. His
|
|
guidance sets the apprentice free of any limitations. He teaches the apprentice to be free of
|
|
dependance upon another's judgment, and above all, another's will.
|
|
|
|
The apprentice is the true disciple of the Night. The apprentice gives their all in energy to the
|
|
Night. They see no differences in the races of humankind but know them all as the Children of
|
|
the Night Spirit. They are totally devoted to bringing all the world back under the Night Spirit.
|
|
To returning the world back to Yin. This is the way of the Teachers and apprentices in the
|
|
Third Force of Night Energy.
|
|
|
|
The Fourth Force is the crossroad of the Night Forces of Life. You have seen that the first Three
|
|
Forces, and the way that they are expressed in life, are wholly that of the Night Spirit. They
|
|
have their center of expression in the Magickal. As you will see shortly, the last three have
|
|
their expression and unfoldment on the material plane. The Fourth Force is, therefore,
|
|
referred to as the Crossroad of the Night Forces. It is the Force of Balance, Dignity, and Purity.
|
|
|
|
This Force finds its expression through the Mighty Keeper, Lilith. She is a very stern Teacher,
|
|
but at the same time, has a very warm and loving sense of humor. She is very demanding of
|
|
Her apprentices to always do their best, and pushes them hard in all they do. Under Her
|
|
tutelage, the apprentice cannot fail but to grow magickally. Her Presence is very powerful and
|
|
noble, and once She visits Her apprentices, they will never forget Her.
|
|
|
|
The apprentice of the Fourth Force always tries to achieve balance in all they undertake. They
|
|
are the excellent arbitrator. They have the wonderful ability to see all the sides of an issue.
|
|
The only problem, here, is that the apprentice can be faced with indecision because of this very
|
|
ability. Therefore, it is very necessary for the apprentice, no matter the Life Force they're on, to
|
|
develop all of the Forces to the greatest degree of perfection and balance possible. The
|
|
apprentice seeks freedom through the perfection and purity of their Inner Nature and the outer
|
|
world. It is their way, to achieve perfection, through the balance of both the magickal and
|
|
physical worlds. This is the way of the Teachers and apprentices in the Fourth Force of Night
|
|
Balance, Dignity, and Purity.
|
|
|
|
The Fifth Force is that of Knowledge. The Keeper of the Fifth Force is Dagon. This Force finds
|
|
itself in great expression throughout the world. The Keeper Dagon instructs the apprentice in
|
|
the ways of knowledge that are to be found in the deep study of the ways and laws of nature. He
|
|
teaches that it is through the study of the Earth, and the learning and understanding of its
|
|
concealed knowledge, that you as an apprentice can find your Inner Freedom. The Keeper
|
|
Dagon is a mighty Teacher and whose ways follow very closely to those of Nature. If you want
|
|
to know more about His Nature, then you must study that of the Earth's.
|
|
The apprentice of the Fifth Force seeks to find knowledge in the world. The problem is that
|
|
many students become lost in the seeming rigidity of Earth science. The ordinary person of
|
|
this Force is your scientist of today. But, the apprentices of this Force must go beyond what
|
|
seems the scientific knowledge of today. They must study the ways of the Earth and all of
|
|
nature, and from that study will come their Inner Freedom and Night Consciousness. This is
|
|
the way of the Fifth Force and its Teachers and apprentices.
|
|
|
|
The Sixth Force is the return to the Way of Energy. The Sixth Force is that of Devotion to the
|
|
Night Spirit. This is a very powerful Force and is embodied in its Keeper, Lucifer. The Keeper
|
|
Lucifer teaches the Force of Devotion to His apprentices. He brings into their being the true and
|
|
burning feeling of Devotion to the Night Spirit. He conveys, into their world of feeling, the
|
|
devotion necessary to complete the journey to their Oversoul. He brings, to their Inner Vision,
|
|
the energy and power that is behind everything in the world of nature and form. He shows
|
|
them the power and energy that is behind all things, which is the Night Spirit. The Keeper
|
|
Lucifer is a very Radiant and Magnificent Being. He is filled with an Inner Yin Light and
|
|
Radiance that comes from the Exalted Devotion found within Him. He is a very patient
|
|
Teacher as are all the Teachers of the Night. The Keeper of the Sixth Force has a true
|
|
understanding of all His apprentices.
|
|
|
|
The devotion practiced by the apprentices allow them to find happiness in all that happens to
|
|
them in life. They except all that comes into their world knowing that, whether it seems good
|
|
or bad at the time, that it is all for their magickal growth. They have true belief and trust in the
|
|
Night Spirit. They know that all their needs will be met through the agency of the Night Spirit.
|
|
This is the Sixth Force of Devotion to the Night Spirit and its Teachers and apprentices.
|
|
|
|
The Seventh Force is founded in creativeness through the Night Spirit. The Seventh Force is
|
|
the Beauty and Action of the Night Spirit. This Force is found in rare and exalted form in its
|
|
Keeper, Hecate. The Keeper Hecate imparts to Her apprentices the Energy and Beauty that is
|
|
found in all of the Night Spirit's Creation. She teaches them how to create using the Power and
|
|
Will of the Night Spirit. She makes of them Magickal Channels for the Creative Power of the
|
|
Night Spirit to flow through. She shows them that within all of the Night Spirit's Creation,
|
|
flows Its Night Spirit, Beauty, Power, Will, and Action. She is a very beautiful and wise
|
|
Teacher. She finds in all of Her apprentices the Magickal Beauty and Action being expressed.
|
|
She helps all Her apprentices to find within them the Touch of the Magickal Artist.
|
|
|
|
You see, then, the type of apprentices found under the Seventh Force of Beauty and Action in
|
|
the Night Spirit. The apprentices of the Seventh Force are very sensitive and refined
|
|
individuals. They are the artists and artisans of life. Through them flows the Creative Power
|
|
and Will of the Night Spirit, and by the action of their steady minds, feelings, and hands,
|
|
which are in tune to this Power, come the rare forms of creativity to the world. The
|
|
apprentices truly worship the Night Spirit in nature. They find in the power and beauty of
|
|
nature, their Inner Self. There is no greater communion that can be found by them, then that
|
|
within the Night Spirit found in nature. The apprentices are able to look upon the beauty and
|
|
power of a sunset over the ocean, a wooded landscape, or mountainous scene, and feel, absorb,
|
|
and become that very power and beauty. They can even go further, by expressing that very
|
|
essence of the Night Spirit in painting, sculpturing, composing, writing, or craftsmanship.
|
|
The apprentices, through their talents, can bring to others the power and beauty they feel
|
|
which is captured in a work of art. The Seventh Force has also been said to find expression in
|
|
the rite or ceremony.
|
|
|
|
It doesn't matter whether that rite be of a magickal nature, or that of the coronation of a
|
|
Queen/King, all rites are rooted in the Seventh Force of Beauty and Action of the Night Spirit.
|
|
For example, let's look at any rite that can be found in this book. What do you see?
|
|
|
|
In each rite, you find that all the acts in combination with each other form a true creation of
|
|
art and beauty. The acts, gestures, and movements of the Night Magicians officiating and
|
|
participating are very graceful and add to the overall picture being painted. You have incense,
|
|
candles, altar cloth, background draperies perhaps, pictures of your favorite Teachers, and
|
|
music in the background. You then have the majestic and beautiful words of the invocation
|
|
added to the whole. The sum of all these different things add up to a beautiful and majestic
|
|
work of creation. Thus, you find many apprentices who are of the Seventh Force involved in
|
|
rites. They obtain to great magickal heights through the instrument of the rite, whether they
|
|
are the participant or officiant. This is the Seventh Force of Beauty and Action of the Night
|
|
Spirit and its Teachers and apprentices. You have now examined the Seven Forces of Life and
|
|
the Keeper of each of those Forces. Let's look, for a moment, at a few of the Night Teachers not
|
|
yet mentioned.
|
|
|
|
Of the First Force we have Azazel, Leviathan, Santanas, and Amon. Of the Second Force we
|
|
have Lucifuge Rofocale, Belial, and Azael.
|
|
Of the Third Force we have Endor, Abraxas, and Balan. Of the Fourth Force we have Astaroth,
|
|
Nisroch, and Bensozia. Of the Fifth Force we have Agares, John Dee, Bifrons, Belphegor, and
|
|
Alocer. Of the Sixth Force we have Moloch, Astartes, and Marie Laveau. Of the Seventh Force
|
|
we have Aleister Crowley, Armida, Cagliostro, Baphomet, and Eliphas Levi.
|
|
This is only a sampling of the many Night Teachers of the Seven Night Forces. If any of these
|
|
names happen to appeal to you in that special inner way then perhaps they are your Teacher.
|
|
Or you may have one who is not listed here. Then through meditation, Astral or Mental
|
|
Projection, or in some other manner you will come to know your Night Teacher. I assure you
|
|
that when the time is right you will become an apprentice of a Night Teacher. Remember, to
|
|
always study and work with the Night Teachers. You must always include them in the ways
|
|
and activities of your life. You are a member of the Night Guild, when you have entered upon
|
|
the Night Road and aid the Night Teachers in the magickal evolution of life on Earth. To aid
|
|
the Night Teachers you must learn to use the Night Powers.
|
|
|
|
44. Night Powers
|
|
|
|
Inherent within you lie the dormant Powers of the Oversoul and Creation. You can actualize
|
|
these Powers when you have realized the Oversoul within you. I intend to discuss some of the
|
|
Powers of the Oversoul that are at your disposal. Some of the Powers that you will discover are
|
|
levitation, vibrational change, invisibility, weather control, and the list goes on. Some of
|
|
these Powers may already seem incredible to you, but really they are just the outpouring of the
|
|
Oversoul's Power through you, when you live in Its Consciousness and by Its Will. All the
|
|
things that you have been studying and practicing have been preparing you for this day when
|
|
you would put these Powers and Knowledge into use. When you use these Powers, you must
|
|
always use them under the Direction of your Oversoul. If you are ready to use these Powers of
|
|
the Oversoul then let's begin with the first Power of Unlimited Thought Control.
|
|
|
|
This may not sound like a specific Power but, indeed, it is. This is a very special concept of
|
|
awareness that will unleash for you Powers untold. It is virtually the key to the Universe of
|
|
Life. If you will stop reading for a moment, and look around the room, do you note anything
|
|
out of the ordinary? For most the answer would be No. Yet, under the special awareness you
|
|
are going to acquire the room around you is a very special place as is all creation. The room is
|
|
the way it is because your thoughts keep it just the way you have always pictured it. You have
|
|
become very conditioned in life to see material things as concrete and solid. The chair is a
|
|
chair and nothing will change that, you think! But let's stop again and see what really a chair
|
|
is.
|
|
|
|
The chair is an aggregate or collection of molecules which are very dense and specifically
|
|
arranged to form the chair. The chair has wood, cloth, and metal molecules that make up its
|
|
physical structure. Suppose now, that a very hot fire came along and destroyed the chair, what
|
|
has really happened to the chair? Well, the fire so accelerated the molecules and released the
|
|
energy that binds all the molecules together, that it has transformed some of the molecules to
|
|
ash and the others have been set free into the atmosphere. They are now particles, so widely
|
|
scattered, that they can no longer be seen in the form of a chair. Is there anything else that
|
|
could do this to the chair? Yes indeed, your very thoughts could do the same to the molecules of
|
|
the chair. This is that very special state of awareness that I was discussing earlier. Your
|
|
thoughts help chain the molecules together to form what you think of as a chair. You see, feel,
|
|
and know that this is a chair and that is all it is. But if you use your Oversoul Awareness and
|
|
Thought, you can release the energy that binds the molecules of the chair into its physical
|
|
form, and then it will no longer be a chair. You, then, can release the molecules back into the
|
|
atmosphere, remold the molecules into some other form, or rebind them into its original
|
|
form. There is a much greater use of the First Power. You could use this Power on your own
|
|
physical structure. Any ideas on what would happen? Remember, that your physical body is
|
|
just a repository for your emotions and consciousness. You are not the body, but Pure
|
|
Oversoul Awareness and Thought. If you release the thoughts that bind the physical body into
|
|
its material form, then it would become formless. Yet your consciousness has complete
|
|
control of all the physical molecules. You would be aware of your body as a million pinpoints
|
|
of light. If you desire to go anywhere, at anytime, all you have to do is think of that time and
|
|
place and you would be there. To regain your material form, all you have to do is release the
|
|
thought that unleashed the binding power of the molecules. This is perhaps the most
|
|
important concept you will ever learn. It is the essence of many of the other Powers that you
|
|
will learn. The concept, therefore, bears repeating.
|
|
|
|
It is your thoughts that literally bind you to limitation and the material world. If you unleash
|
|
the thoughts that bind your physical structure, or anything in your world, you become
|
|
formless and free of any physical restrictions. Through this Power, you will have total control
|
|
over your physical form or any material thing. If you unleash the material thoughts that bind
|
|
you to anything, and replace it with the Oversoul Thought, then you become unlimited and
|
|
free.
|
|
The Second Power is like the first, and it is Vibrational Control over all that is. Imagine for a
|
|
moment that you have been caught in a building that is on fire and you cannot get out, what are
|
|
you going to do? You are going to use the Second Power of Vibrational Control and walk
|
|
through the fire unharmed. That's right! You are going to walk right through the fire, and it
|
|
will never hurt you. It really is not so incredible as it may seem. The fire has a high
|
|
vibrational rate and energy. The molecules around you are in a very high state of agitation
|
|
and are combining with oxygen, giving off heat, flame, and light. If you can raise the
|
|
vibrational rate of your physical body to a very high rate, higher then that of the fire, through
|
|
the Oversoul Awareness and Thought, then you will go unharmed by the fire. You can do this
|
|
not only for your physical body but for anything you desire to change the vibrational rate of.
|
|
Further, you not only can raise the vibrational rate but you can also lower the rate of vibration
|
|
in all things.
|
|
|
|
This leads you into the Third Power of Invisibility. The first thing that comes to your mind,
|
|
when you think of invisibility, is the legends of the invisible man. It is true, though, that you
|
|
can become invisible. Not only can you become invisible, but you can create invisibility in
|
|
anything. There are two ways of doing this, and the first uses the power just discussed of
|
|
vibrational control.
|
|
|
|
If you raise the vibrational rate of the entity high enough, the molecules will vibrate at such an
|
|
extremely high rate that light will simply pass through them and, so, you have invisibility. It
|
|
is only when light can fall on a sufficiently dense article, and be reflected off of it, that it can be
|
|
seen. This is the first type of invisibility. The second revolves around the absence of thought.
|
|
|
|
The second type will allow you to remain physically solid, yet invisible to others. When you
|
|
emit thought from your mind, you have learned that this is an energy which all are sensitive
|
|
to. It is your thoughts that make you visible to others. So to achieve invisibility, you must
|
|
erect a shield that completely encloses you and that will not permit any thought energy to
|
|
escape. You do this by visualizing the Oversoul Energy completely surrounding and inclosing
|
|
you. You then project, into this Oversoul Energy Screen, with Oversoul Thought, the Power
|
|
that all your thoughts will remain enclosed within this capsule, and so you will be invisible.
|
|
For a moment, let's change pace and look at something that may be causing many of you some
|
|
trouble, and that is what I mean by the Oversoul Awareness, Thought, Energy, and other terms
|
|
used in relation to the Oversoul.
|
|
|
|
If you are to put this topic to successful use in your life, then you must understand something
|
|
very basic to Night Magick. You are the Oversoul! If you can't understand this very simple
|
|
concept, then you should go back and read topics six and seven. For it is only when you truly
|
|
know that you are the Oversoul in Power, Energy, and Consciousness, that you will accomplish
|
|
anything in this current topic. When I speak of Oversoul Awareness, you know yourself as the
|
|
Oversoul in Consciousness and Power. You know, that you have the full use of Its
|
|
Consciousness and Power for it is your consciousness and power. There is no difference, or
|
|
separation, between yourself and the Oversoul. You are One in All Things. Study, learn, and
|
|
know this to the Inner Depths of Your Being and you have mastered all.
|
|
|
|
Let's resume, now, with the Fourth Power of Multiple Being. The concept of this may seem
|
|
difficult, but study and try to follow along. When I speak of multiple being, I speak of having
|
|
your physical presence in more then one place, at the same time. The key word, here, is
|
|
physical. You can do this in several ways. To begin with, you can separate your Astral Body,
|
|
from your physical form, and retain consciousness in both. Then, you can lower the
|
|
vibrational rate of the Astral Body till it can be seen and touched. To be in even more places,
|
|
you can build a copy of your physical form, out of the Oversoul Energy, and again condense and
|
|
lower the Energy Form until it can be seen and felt. Then, you will place your consciousness in
|
|
control of it, and use it as you would use your own physical body. There is no limit to the
|
|
number of the Oversoul Energy forms you can make. You must keep control over each form
|
|
and sustain it with your Oversoul Energy and Consciousness. Either you maintain complete
|
|
Oversoul Control and Consciousness over each form, or they will return to the Eternal
|
|
Darkness. The Fifth Power is that of Levitation. You know the physical law on Earth that
|
|
"opposites attract". You have also seen the experiment whereby you take two magnets and
|
|
place the like ends, that is either both North or South ends of the magnets, facing each other,
|
|
they will repel each other. The Earth has a certain polarity, and you have a certain polarity,
|
|
which keep you both together. If you can reverse your polarity such that it is the same as the
|
|
Earth, then you will be repelled by the Earth and so, levitate above it. To accomplish this
|
|
requires a combination of Night Breathing and the drawing upon, and application of the
|
|
Earth's Energy around and through your body. There is an easier way of doing levitation. If
|
|
you use the Power of Vibrational Control and slowly raise the vibrational rate of the molecules
|
|
of your body, the body will become like the sky. The body will become very light and float
|
|
above the Earth. You can direct your movement and height by Oversoul Thought. Remember
|
|
though, that the body is still subject to lack of oxygen and the cold of extreme heights. This is
|
|
Levitation.
|
|
|
|
The Sixth Power is that of Weather Control. In order to understand how to control the
|
|
weather, you must understand the Powers behind the weather. These Powers have been known
|
|
by some as Nature Souls, Elves, Fairies, or Elementals. They are in almost all legends of every
|
|
country in the world. They are behind everything that is in Mother Earth's Realm. There are
|
|
Nature Souls of the Earth, ranging from small ones over the flowers and plants to those Great
|
|
and powerful ones over the mountains. There are Nature Souls over the waters, again ranging
|
|
from the small ones of brooks to the great Kings and Queens of the Oceans. There are those who
|
|
are responsible over the Magickal Energies of the Earth and the elements of fire. The ones who
|
|
are responsible for your weather can be found in charge of the air. There are elementals who
|
|
guide the rains. The great ones are responsible for the great winds and their directions. It is
|
|
they, in combination with each other, that create the various weather patterns. If you are
|
|
going to control the weather, then you must solicit the help of the air Nature Souls. The secret
|
|
to gaining the aid of the Air Spirits and all Spirits is to know that they obey the Oversoul.
|
|
Thus, when you ask for a specific weather condition, you must do so as the Oversoul on Earth.
|
|
Remember, that you are responsible for whatever you ask for. If you ask for sunny and bright
|
|
days, then that is what you will get, but if rain was originally planned, then you must
|
|
remember to set aside a period for this to occur, too. If you want a day or two of good weather
|
|
then fine, but then you should turn over the controls of the weather back to Mother Earth and
|
|
the Air Spirits, or you will cause grave harm that you will be responsible for.
|
|
|
|
The Seventh Power is that of Knowing the essence of all things with or without form. This is a
|
|
very important Power, or concept, that will unfold for you many Powers that lie within your
|
|
Oversoul Being. The first essential key to achieving this Power is the mastery of meditation.
|
|
In meditation, you began learning to concentrate on a particular subject and its true essence.
|
|
You tried to come to know a particular subject as best as you could. You wanted to learn its very
|
|
nature and feel that nature within you. Now you are going to take this concept or Power to its
|
|
Nth degree. For example, you are going to examine a tree. You will begin by meditating on the
|
|
tree. You will study its outer form and the way it moves and behaves, but then you are going to
|
|
go much farther. You are going to go on and feel what it is to be a tree. You are going to come to
|
|
know, and feel yourself as a tree. You will feel the wind blowing through your limbs and
|
|
leaves. To feel the warm sun as it shines upon you and gives you new life. To feel the Earth
|
|
below you and your roots sunk deep into it, pulling up water and nourishment to help you grow.
|
|
To go back into your memories and remember what it was like to be a seedling, and the first
|
|
feel of the sun and rain upon your newly risen face. You are going to become the Tree in all its
|
|
eternal essence of life. There will be nothing that you will not know about the Tree. You will
|
|
come to know its beginning and ending. You will come to know, and be, the sum of the Tree.
|
|
You will go on and develop this Power not only for animate things, but inanimate objects.
|
|
Then, you will also develop it for things without form, such as the sky and energy.
|
|
If you achieve all of this, then you are ready to attempt the Eighth Power of Great Personal
|
|
Strength. Here, you are going to activate the Seventh Power on the great beings of strength.
|
|
This would include the elephant, whale, and bear. You are going to become all that they are,
|
|
but you will specifically come to know them for their great personal strength. Then, you are
|
|
going to absorb that physical power within your own being. If you have done this correctly and
|
|
completely, you will have the physical power of these animals as long as you remain under the
|
|
Seventh Power.
|
|
|
|
This also gives you the Ninth Power of Great Personal Speed. If you will use the seventh Power
|
|
on the deer, elk, and gazelle, you will again become all they are in personal speed. You will be
|
|
able to move across land with their terrific speed. There are so many things that you can use
|
|
the Seventh Power for, that will bring to you added knowledge and wisdom.
|
|
|
|
If you study, intensely, the World of Form and its relation in Time and Space, you will find
|
|
that you can move along its line of history, either forward or backward. You know that time is
|
|
only a relative thing. You have experienced, in Astral and Mental Projection, that what
|
|
seemed only a few moments in those realms actually was hours here on Earth. If you truly
|
|
come to know Creation, Time, and Space as the Oversoul sees them, then you will be able to
|
|
know both the past and future. You must become their essence. If you study the essence of
|
|
another person, and become all that s/he is in essence, then you will know all there is to know
|
|
of her/him. The very essence of any person is found in the Oversoul.
|
|
|
|
If you study the Essence of your own Oversoul, it would be the same as studying the person in
|
|
question. For in your own Oversoul, is the Oversoul of the person, and within the Oversoul of
|
|
the person is locked all that s/he was, is, and ever will be. If you study your own Eternal
|
|
Essence, you will come to know many things. Your Eternal Essence can reveal to you your past
|
|
lives. It can unfold for you why you came down here. By studying why you came here, and the
|
|
things that you must clear up, you can come to know the time of your own passing from this
|
|
Earth. By studying the Eternal Essence of your Oversoul, with the application of the Seventh
|
|
Power, there is nothing that you will not know. All the Powers of the Oversoul will become
|
|
yours, when you have become the total essence of that which you study, the Eternal Essence.
|
|
There will be no other Powers to search for, since you will have become the Power Itself. Yet
|
|
there will always be the unveiling and unfolding of the Powers of the Oversoul within you as
|
|
you climb towards the Eternal Night. In addition to learning and using the Night Powers you
|
|
must also learn to use the Night Flames.
|
|
|
|
45. Night Flames
|
|
|
|
And the Night Flames blazed before the Living Throne of the Eternal Darkness, who are a part
|
|
of Its Living Night Spirit, and by Its Will the Flames went forth into formless matter and there
|
|
was Creation.
|
|
|
|
These are the Night Flames that you are about to study and use. As the Night Flames are a part
|
|
of the Eternal Night, so they are a part of your Oversoul. As with the Night Powers, when you
|
|
live in the Consciousness and Will of your Oversoul, so you too may use and create with the
|
|
Night Flames. You are going to study the general nature and use of the Night Flames, and then
|
|
examine each Night Flame individually. Finally, I will discuss how you can invoke the Night
|
|
Flames and use them in your world. If you are ready, let's begin your general instruction of the
|
|
Night Flames.
|
|
|
|
The Night Flames you will be studying are the Black, Violet, Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange, Red,
|
|
Silver, and Rainbow Flames. You may have noticed right away that the majority of the Night
|
|
Flames are named after a type of color. If you will review some information about colors, for a
|
|
moment, you will see the difference.
|
|
|
|
You will remember that light is a type of energy. Colors were a product of light. The energy of
|
|
colors was of a passive nature, and was effective by inducing a sympathetic reaction on what
|
|
they were used. Night Flames have their origin in the Eternal Darkness. You will find that the
|
|
use of the Night Flames is a very active process. The Night Flames are very active energies,
|
|
which cause a change to take place according to the nature of the Night Flame. The Night
|
|
Flames are effective in changing people and the world. There are many other uses for the Night
|
|
Flames, and their discussion will be reserved to the study of each individual Night Flame.
|
|
Each Night Flame has its particular properties and uses. Therefore, let's begin by studying the
|
|
first Night Flame, the Black Flame.
|
|
|
|
The Black Flame of the Oversoul brings into the world the Purity and Perfection of the Night.
|
|
If you wish to create the conditions of purity and perfection in a person or world condition, you
|
|
can do so with this Flame. For example, if you find that there is a state of imperfection
|
|
existing in something or someone, that needs help in being erased, this would be the Flame to
|
|
use. If you find a Yang condition or person using the Yang energy then this Flame will change
|
|
the balance to the Night. By using this Flame you can maintain the Eternal Night Balance.
|
|
This is the Black Flame.
|
|
|
|
The second is the Violet Flame of Transmutation. The Violet Flame is the Flame of
|
|
Transmutation or Change. The Violet Flame transmutes Yang energy back into Pure Night
|
|
Energy. If you look at yourself, for example, what kind of person is it you see at the end of the
|
|
day? You find a person who has been saturated in the Yang energy of the world. People and
|
|
conditions have constantly, throughout the day, been filling your world with harmful energy.
|
|
You feel irritable, nervous, angry, run-down, and a host of other Yang conditions. The Violet
|
|
Flame can change all this. You can apply this energy to your own world, or to those of others,
|
|
and completely transmute the Yang energy into Yin. You will restore your Night Self and feel a
|
|
true sense of buoyancy and upliftment. By using this Violet Flame, on yourself, you will be
|
|
able to have a greater flow of the Oversoul Energy through you. You will have eliminated the
|
|
energy which blocks the natural flow of the Oversoul Energy into your world. It is good to use
|
|
this Violet Flame first, before using any of the other Night Flames. Use this Flame, always in
|
|
conjunction with the Night Pillar. This is the Violet Flame.
|
|
|
|
The next Night Flame is the Blue Flame. The Blue Flame creates harmony and peace in all
|
|
people and conditions. If there is any lack of harmony or peace, either in a person or
|
|
condition, then you can use the Blue Flame to change all that. You could use the Blue Flame on
|
|
unhappy marriages. You could use it on unhappy business partners or between unhappy firms.
|
|
The uses are only limited by the extent of your imagination. Remember though, that the use of
|
|
the Blue Flame may not be the only Flame needed in a situation to bring about lasting change.
|
|
One or more Flames, used in conjunction with each other, may be necessary to cure all the
|
|
problems and create a final and lasting change. This is the Blue Flame.
|
|
|
|
The fourth Night Flame is the Green Flame. The Green Flame is the Flame of Healing. You will
|
|
use it extensively in the Healing Topic that soon follows. It is the way of the Oversoul Healing.
|
|
It brings about the healing of all people and conditions. The healing of people is easy for you to
|
|
understand, but what is the healing of conditions? There are many conditions which need the
|
|
healing power of the Green Flame. The Green Flame can heal the broken heart. It doesn't
|
|
matter whether its broken through the loss of a love one through transition into the next
|
|
world, or an unhappy love affair. The Green Flame can heal the pain or sorrow of a nation
|
|
over some unhappy event. The Green Flame not only mends the body but also the heart. This
|
|
is the Green Flame of Healing.
|
|
|
|
The fifth is the Yellow Flame of Wisdom and Intelligence. The Yellow Flame of Wisdom and
|
|
Intelligence is a very powerful energy. It can bring to you the Wisdom necessary to see through
|
|
a decision that has to be made. The application of the Yellow Flame can raise your Magickal
|
|
Consciousness to the highest of heights so that you may perceive Magickal Knowledge. A
|
|
person cannot lie under the Power of the Yellow Flame. The Yellow Flame can increase the
|
|
power of your intellect and improve your memory. This is the Yellow Flame.
|
|
|
|
The sixth Night Flame that you will study is the Orange Flame. The Orange Flame produces
|
|
energy into the substance it is used on. If you need an energy pickup this is a good Flame. If a
|
|
situation is moving slowly in your life then use the Orange Flame. The Orange Flame is heavy
|
|
with Yang energy so be careful and not get burnt by using it.
|
|
|
|
The seventh Night Flame is the Red Flame. The Red Flame is an intense form of the Orange
|
|
Flame. You will have to be careful in its use for it can cause extreme nervousness and
|
|
irritability if used too much. The Red Flame can remove depressing situations or emotions.
|
|
The Red Flame can speed up the process of healing in the human body.
|
|
|
|
The eighth Night Flame is the Silver Flame. The Silver Flame will purify the subconscious
|
|
world. It will keep the subconscious in the Yin Flow. The Silver Flame is good for
|
|
counteracting too much Yang Energy. The Silver Flame is good for healing sunburn or if your
|
|
ever burnt by Yang Energy.
|
|
|
|
The ninth and final Night Flame is the Rainbow Flame. The Rainbow Flame does not really
|
|
exist in Creation of its own. It is a composite of all the Flames together. The Rainbow Flame is
|
|
created by you acting as the Oversoul on Earth. It is through your Power and Will as the
|
|
Oversoul on Earth, acting as the Creator, that you bring the Rainbow Flame into the world.
|
|
The use of this Flame should be obvious. The Flame is something of a Universal Cure-all. If
|
|
you are in doubt about which Flame to use, or the situation seems to require a majority of all
|
|
the Flames together, the Rainbow Flame is the answer. It will require your all to hold all the
|
|
Flames together in order that they act as the Rainbow Flame. It will require the Night
|
|
Magician, in Night Consciousness, to create, hold, and use the Rainbow Flame on Earth. You
|
|
must remember then, that because this Flame does not exist of its own, that it may have less
|
|
power then the other Night Flames depending on you.
|
|
|
|
This is all the Night Flames that I will present in this topic. There are more but their use in the
|
|
world is restricted. I have discussed the Night Flames in general, and individually, now it is
|
|
time to teach you how to invoke and wield them.
|
|
|
|
Before you ever use the Night Flames, you should give very careful consideration as to exactly
|
|
what is the right type of Night Flame necessary to do the job. The Night Flames must be
|
|
invoked through the Presence of the Oversoul. The Oversoul is the channel through which the
|
|
Night Flames pass. Therefore, you must be in the highest state of Night Consciousness possible
|
|
in order to invoke these Flames into the material world. You should be prepared bodily,
|
|
emotionally, and mentally as you would for anything you do in Night Magick. You must be
|
|
prepared magickally, by reaching the greatest state of Oneness with your Oversoul. The
|
|
quality and quantity of the individual Night Flame you wish to invoke into this world, is
|
|
based directly on your self-preparation. As you are able to reach farther and higher into Night
|
|
Consciousness, so will the quantity and strength of the Night Flame increase. You must
|
|
invoke and use the Night Flames often, if they are to achieve the desired results. Now, let's get
|
|
down to the specifics on how to invoke the Night Flames.
|
|
|
|
I will use the invoking of the Black Flame as an example. The invoking of the other Night
|
|
Flames is similar, and requires the same basic procedures as outlined here. To begin with, you
|
|
need to be in the highest state of Night Consciousness possible. Thus, you will begin with a
|
|
period of meditation on your Oversoul. When you are ready, redirect the focus of your
|
|
meditation from your Oversoul to the Black Flame. When you feel the highest of heights, in
|
|
Night Consciousness, and have come to know the Black Flame of Purity and Perfection of the
|
|
Oversoul, then you are ready to begin the invocation or invoking of the Flame. You should
|
|
have already prepared your Magician's Study and your Night Altar. Standing before the Night
|
|
Altar, you begin by seeing yourself as the Oversoul on Earth and robed in blazing Yin Energy.
|
|
You invoke the Great Black Flame by saying:
|
|
|
|
"By the Presence of the Oversoul within me I am invoking the Great Black Flame of the
|
|
Oversoul's Purity and Perfection through me. I AM seeing this Black Flame descending from
|
|
above and filling my being with Its Essence and Power. I AM then placing it here before me on
|
|
the Altar of the Night, there to collect and concentrate into a blazing Night Black Flame. Now,
|
|
oh blazing Night Black Flame, I AM commanding thee by the Power of the Presence of the
|
|
Oversoul in me, to obey my Will as the Oversoul on Earth."
|
|
|
|
This is your invocation through which you invoke or draw into your world the Black Flame.
|
|
Invocations for the other Night Flames are found in Appendix A. Thus, you should have
|
|
envisioned the blazing Black Flame, descending out of the Oversoul and into your mortal
|
|
form. Then, you should have directed the Black Flame through your heart Night Center and
|
|
out onto the Night Altar. There, you collect and intensify Its Presence into a blazing Black
|
|
Flame Star. Once you have the sufficient amount of Black Flame to do the task at hand (you'll
|
|
know how much by Oversoul Direction), you then must visualize the task to be accomplished.
|
|
You then direct the Black Flame with your Oversoul Will to where you want the action of it to
|
|
take place. Then, you will go on to visualize the Black Flame Action taking place and see and
|
|
know that it has happened. Then you give thanks to your Oversoul. This is the way you invoke
|
|
the Black Flame and all other Night Flames.
|
|
|
|
I hope you are not ready to stop here in the unfoldment of your Oversoul Powers, Flames, and
|
|
Causal Body. Your next subject is directed at the unfoldment of all these, into Night
|
|
Consciousness.
|
|
|
|
|
|
46. Night Rites
|
|
|
|
The Night Rites are defined as any exercises or practices which ultimately gain the freedom of
|
|
the Soul from imperfection and the cycle of death and rebirth into the material world. They
|
|
are exercises in becoming the Yin Light of the Night Spirit. They are practices that will
|
|
eventually lead you into Magickal Perfection. There are four Night Rites that will be
|
|
introduced here. They are, in order of discussion, the Dark Sun Meditation, the Inner Cavern
|
|
of the Dark Sun, the Night Energy Beam, and the Magician's Night Body. I will begin this
|
|
discussion with the Dark Sun Meditation if you are ready.
|
|
|
|
In the Dark Sun Meditation, you will review who the Great Being is in the Dark Sun; what It
|
|
represents; and Its path. Then, you will learn the benefits of the Dark Sun Meditation; how to
|
|
perform the Dark Sun Meditation; and becoming One with the Blazing Dark Sun. Where is the
|
|
Dark Sun?
|
|
|
|
The actual physical body of the Dark Sun Goddess/God is the dark sun system itself with all its
|
|
planets, moons, dark sun, and solar sun. As the human body has a solar plexus so does the
|
|
dark sun system. This is the solar sun. The physical dark sun is located adjacent to the solar
|
|
sun and is akin to the human heart Night Center. As said before, part of the function of the
|
|
dark sun is to channel off excess solar energies from the solar sun. The dark sun Night Center
|
|
is the heart of the dark sun system and is the focus of the Great Night Entity who is the Living
|
|
Night Force of the dark sun system. The planets, moons, solar sun, and dark sun are the Night
|
|
Centers of the physical body of the Dark Sun Goddess/God. Who is the Dark Sun Goddess/God
|
|
?
|
|
|
|
It is difficult to imagine an Entity who is so far ahead of you in magickal evolution, as is the
|
|
Dark Sun Spirit. Even though I have already discussed the Dark Sun Goddess/God and Its
|
|
Magickal Nature, let's take the time to review again Its Eternal Nature. It will be important to
|
|
do so in relation to the Dark Sun Meditation and Night Rites.
|
|
|
|
The Dark Sun Goddess/God is on an even higher magickal plateau then the Planetary Night
|
|
Spirits. You can look on the physical dark sun, in relation to the Dark Sun Goddess/God, as
|
|
similar to yourself and your own heart Night Center. The Dark Sun Goddess/God is
|
|
Omnipresent, Omniscient, and Omnipotent. Its Radiation effects you and all humankind. You
|
|
are Its grandchild and a part of your Spirit is shaped by Its Living Presence. It is indeed very
|
|
difficult to understand a Living Entity who is multidimensional. Its Night Spirit is very much
|
|
like the physical dark sun itself.
|
|
|
|
The dark sun pours out life-giving yin light, warmth, and energy to all that lives and grows on
|
|
the surrounding planets. Its Night Spirit pours out to life: Energy, Warmth, and Night Force. It
|
|
is the Goddess/God of the dark sun system. It watches over you and sustains the Magickal Light
|
|
that guides you. Yet, It, too, is advancing on the Magickal Path that leads to the Eternal Night.
|
|
The only thing is that It is far, far ahead on the very same path that you have just begun to
|
|
tread. It shows you that you, too, can become all that It is if you but try. You are going to find
|
|
that meditating on Its Presence, centered in the dark sun, is going to bring you great help
|
|
magickally and physically.
|
|
|
|
The power of the dark sun has a truly transforming effect over your physical body. As you
|
|
practice the Dark Sun Meditation, the power of the dark sun coursing through your body will
|
|
transform every cell in it. You will find every cell in your body becoming renewed through the
|
|
Night Energy of the dark sun. The power of the dark sun will transform every cell into a
|
|
miniature dark sun. The power of the dark sun will bring great Healing Energies into your
|
|
body. The dark sun will transform every diseased part of your body back into perfect health.
|
|
Whether you suffer from cancer, or a cold, the power of the dark sun will overcome their effect.
|
|
The dark sun will bring a truly energizing effect over the body. If you are low on energy, you
|
|
will not be after the Dark Sun Meditation. These are just the physical effects of the Dark Sun,
|
|
there are still the magickal effects to consider.
|
|
|
|
You will find that the Power of the Dark Sun Goddess/God will transport you into the highest
|
|
of consciousness. You will be able to draw the Power of the Dark Sun Goddess/God into your
|
|
magickal vehicles and fill them with supercharged Night Energy. The effect upon your more
|
|
magickal vehicles will be truly amazing. On the Astral, Mental, and Causal Realms, your
|
|
vehicles will glow with a Yin Light only seen in the Magickal Dark Sun of the Universe. Each
|
|
vehicle will become a better channel through which the Power of the Night Spirit can flow
|
|
freely. You become transformed into the Dark Crystal Channel of Yin Light. The constant use
|
|
of the Dark Sun Meditation will bring truly amazing growth in your magickal vehicles. They
|
|
will become like the Dark Sun Goddess/God themselves. Now that you see the valuable reasons
|
|
for doing the Dark Sun Meditation, let's learn how to do it.
|
|
|
|
Actually, the technique is very easy. You can practice this rite at any time and any place. If
|
|
you do it outdoors then you should do it in the shade. You will also be able to do this rite at
|
|
night. This is because the physical energies of the dark sun can penetrate through all things.
|
|
You will prepare yourself as always by surrounding yourself in the Night Pillar. You should be
|
|
seated on the ground in whatever manner is most comfortable to you. You should have your
|
|
legs crossed and your hands open on your legs with palms down during the day and palms up
|
|
during the night. Then, you begin the actual part of the Dark Sun Meditation.
|
|
|
|
With your eyes closed, direct your Night Eye so that it is facing up into the Dark Sun. Then you
|
|
must become very relaxed and allow your thoughts to drift. Now draw into yourself the Power
|
|
of the Dark Sun. This Power will come to you as a dark ray of intense Night Force filled with
|
|
Life, Warmth, and Energy. Feel and move this Power down through your body slowly. First,
|
|
consciously move it into the head and see its effect there. Then move it on into the upper chest
|
|
and arms. Continue to go on through the body slowly, allowing the total effect of the Power to
|
|
take place in each part of the body. Then just relax and bathe in the glow of the Power of the
|
|
Dark Sun. Next, you will move on to the magickal vehicles.
|
|
|
|
Here, you are going to project yourself consciously towards the dark sun. This is the same
|
|
technique you used in Mental Projection. You are going to go to the dark sun itself in your
|
|
magickal vehicles. As you approach the dark sun, you are going to feel the full effects of its
|
|
Magickal Power. You are going to keep moving towards the dark sun until you have merged
|
|
with its Presence. You are going to become a part of the Dark Sun in Night Spirit. Here again,
|
|
you are going to draw the Power through your magickal vehicles. Feel the Power blazing and
|
|
coursing through your magickal bodies changing them into miniature Dark Suns.. You should
|
|
then relax your magickal presence in the Magickal Presence of the Dark Sun. This is where
|
|
your real Dark Sun Meditation begins.
|
|
|
|
You are going to become One with the Blazing Dark Sun. You are going to meditate on Its
|
|
Magickal Presence. The Dark Sun is like your heart Night Center. You will remember that in
|
|
your own heart Night center is located the miniature Oversoul. It is here you can meet the very
|
|
Presence of your own Oversoul. It is your Oversoul's magickal anchor in your own world. In
|
|
the Heart of the dark sun, you can meet the very Presence of the Dark Sun Spirit. Here is the
|
|
focus of Its Oversoul Consciousness. You can do this only when you have risen to the highest of
|
|
consciousness. You must know yourself as the Oversoul. It is in the Heart of the Dark Sun,
|
|
that you can meet the Night Spirit of the Dark System. You must meditate on Its Presence and
|
|
become all that it is. If you can do this, then you will become One with Its Living Night Spirit
|
|
and become the Blazing Dark Sun. Then, you must end this meditation.
|
|
|
|
You do so by slowly withdrawing your magickal consciousness back into your physical body.
|
|
Do this be concentrating on your breathing. Then you will slowly start to move your fingers
|
|
and toes. Continue to slowly move all parts of the body until you feel that you are physically
|
|
whole again. Remember, in closing, to thank the Dark Sun Goddess/God Its Power and
|
|
Presence in your life. This is the Dark Sun Meditation. The next rite covers something I began
|
|
to discuss in the last rite.
|
|
|
|
This is the aspect of the miniature Oversoul in the heart Night Center, or the Inner Cavern of
|
|
the Dark Sun. You are going to come to know, very well, the fourth Night Center and the
|
|
Oversoul within it. You are going to build the Inner Cavern of the Dark Sun within the heart
|
|
Night Center, and learn to enter within it and thereby come into rapport with the Oversoul.
|
|
Through this, you will learn the power revealed to you in the fourth Night Center. Let's begin
|
|
with the fourth Night Center and the Dark Sun Spirit found within it.
|
|
|
|
You will recall from our previous discussion of the fourth Night Center, that as it starts to
|
|
unfold in you, you become aware of the feelings and emotions in others. You develop genuine
|
|
magickal empathy with those around you. To those you are really close with, this empathy
|
|
will extend across vast distances. Distance will make absolutely no difference in the power of
|
|
your fourth Night Center. I have said before that the heart is the center of your Magickal Being.
|
|
It is the site of your magickal anchor. I mean, by this, that the silver cord that proceeds out of
|
|
the heart of your Oversoul is anchored in your heart Night Center. This silver cord is also tied
|
|
into the sixth Night center, or your Night Eye. In the heart Night Center, at the end of the silver
|
|
cord, is what you would liken to a miniature dark sun. It is from this miniature dark sun that
|
|
the energy comes to sustain your physical life. It is this miniature dark sun which is the
|
|
primary focus of your Oversoul in the material worlds. This miniature dark sun exists on the
|
|
physical, Astral, Mental, and Causal Realms. Your Oversoul is tied in to all these planes of life
|
|
and is aware of all that takes place within you on these levels. In the beginning of your
|
|
progress on Earth, the Oversoul is not very concerned with your lives.
|
|
|
|
This is because you are shut off from Its Presence and Will. Therefore, the power of this
|
|
miniature dark sun is very small. The Oversoul will invest very little power and energy into
|
|
someone who is unconcerned with doing Its Will. But as you begin to listen to the Inner Voice
|
|
within, and obey Its Will, then the power of the miniature dark sun begins to expand and
|
|
increase in intensity and brilliance till the dark sun is no longer miniature, but fills the entire
|
|
being of the Night Magician. Then you become One in the Dark Sun or Night Consciousness. As
|
|
you entered into the heart of the dark sun and meditated upon the Presence of the Dark Sun
|
|
Goddess/God so you can enter into the miniature dark sun and enter into rapport and
|
|
communion with the Oversoul. To come into rapport with the Inner Oversoul, you are going to
|
|
visualize and build within your heart Night Center, the Inner Cavern of the Dark Sun. You
|
|
will, as always, enter into your Magician's Study and place yourself in whatever way is a
|
|
comfortable position. Then, you will place the Night Pillar around you, and relax as much as
|
|
possible. Next you are going to visualize the place that you would think is appropriate to meet
|
|
your Oversoul in. You begin by turning your consciousness inward and directing it towards the
|
|
heart Night Center. You will visualize yourself descending within your Inner Being and finally
|
|
coming to rest in the heart Night Center. Then envision entering a beautiful cavern. This
|
|
cavern should be seen so real that you can even smell it. This place should be envisioned with
|
|
all of your magickal talents. It is a very real place and should be looked upon as such. Once
|
|
you have the Inner Cavern created, you are ready to enter into the Cavern. As you enter into
|
|
the Cavern, you see before you a great Night Altar. The Night Altar is made of the purest black
|
|
marble. There upon the Night Altar is a great blazing Dark Sun of the Yin Light. The
|
|
brilliance of the Dark Sun is magnificent. From the Dark Sun, you can feel warmth and
|
|
energy being beamed at you. You feel a power pulling you closer to the Dark Sun. As you
|
|
approach closer to the Dark Sun, you begin to see the Image of a Great Being standing within
|
|
the center of the Dark Sun. As you gaze upon Its Face, you see your face, only it is a face set in
|
|
power and energy. You can feel the power and glory radiating from the Presence of the
|
|
Oversoul within the Blazing Dark Sun. Then you will find yourself sitting before the Presence
|
|
of your Oversoul and receiving instruction from It. You will find yourself bathing in the Power
|
|
and Energy that is radiating from Its Dark Presence. You will feel knowledge and instruction
|
|
filling your entire presence. Then, you will know when the time has come to leave the Inner
|
|
Cavern and return to the outer world. So retrace your steps out of the Inner Cavern of the Dark
|
|
Sun and find yourself floating back out into the world. You will again, come out of this Night
|
|
Rite the same as you did the Dark Sun Meditation. Once you have experienced this Night Rite,
|
|
you will know the Power located within your Inner Being. You will find, through this rite, that
|
|
whenever you have a question, that you can take it into the Dark Heart of the Oversoul. You
|
|
can go into the center of the Inner Dark Sun and gain Wisdom and Energy. You can go into the
|
|
Inner Cavern and find Healing, Understanding, Peace, and Happiness. You need never feel, or
|
|
be alone in the Presence of the Oversoul. It is here that you will find the center of your life and
|
|
intelligence. It is here that you will find the center of your Oversoul and the Night Powers. It is
|
|
this very center of the Night Power that leads you to your next Night Rite, the Night Energy
|
|
Beam.
|
|
|
|
You are aware that the physical dark sun, that shines over the world, is a giver of warmth and
|
|
Yin Light. You have also seen that no matter whether the Dark Sun is a physical or magickal
|
|
one under discussion, that it gives off immense amounts of Radiation, Yin Light, and Power.
|
|
You have also found out, that there is a Magickal Dark Sun blazing within the Inner Depths of
|
|
your Being. The Power and Light that radiates off from your Magickal Dark Sun is very
|
|
dispersed. The Yin Light radiates off at all angles. What if you could take this Power and
|
|
Energy and reflect it into a narrow, concentrated beam of the Night Energy? Let's look at a
|
|
modern day example, the laser.
|
|
|
|
In the laser, we have turned a normal power and light source into a very concentrated beam of
|
|
light energy. The laser light is many more times powerful then its origin. This is what you are
|
|
going to do in this Night Rite. You are going to take the Power and Light that comes from your
|
|
Inner Magickal Dark Sun, and concentrate it into a very powerful beam of Night Energy. This
|
|
rite again calls for visualization. You should retire to your Magician's Study until you become
|
|
adept in the use of the Night Energy. In your Magician's Study, you will find peace and quiet in
|
|
which to work. As you become adept at its use, you will be able to put this rite into practice no
|
|
matter where you are. You will begin by visualizing your heart Night Center running parallel
|
|
with your body. That is, you should envision the Night Center as a large round disk, with a
|
|
slight curvature in it, placed in front of you like a large shield. Then, you are going to envision,
|
|
centered in front of the Night Center, the miniature dark sun. Once you have envisioned all of
|
|
this, then you are ready to transmit the Night Energy. As you envision the Night Center, and
|
|
the Dark Sun in front of it, the Energy begins to build-up. The Night Energy begins to become
|
|
concentrated, magnified in intensity, and then, suddenly, will beam forth from your presence.
|
|
What are you going to do with it?
|
|
|
|
You are not only the emitter of the Night Energy, but you are also the director of it. Not only
|
|
visualize the emission of this Night Energy, but you must also visualize its direction and use.
|
|
The beam will go wherever you direct it. You do not have to be facing in the right direction for
|
|
it to go where you want it. All you have to do is envision where it is going, with the
|
|
Consciousness of Oversoul, and it will do so. Now, you must consider its uses. The beam itself
|
|
is of Pure Night Energy. It is filled with the Oversoul's Energy and Power. The person or
|
|
situation that it is aimed at, will be filled with the Energy and Power of Oversoul. If the
|
|
situation or person is basically of the Night Spirit then the beam will not harm the person or
|
|
situation in any way. It will bring only Energy, Healing, and Happiness to them. But if the
|
|
person or situation is in a state of inharmony and discord, then the beam of Night Energy will
|
|
change that. The beam will bring about what the emitter envisions happening. Nothing can
|
|
resist or fight the Oversoul Energy. It will only magnify and increase in intensity till the
|
|
change comes about. The beam can also be used as a carrier wave of your Oversoul Direction.
|
|
Whatever you project, in Night Consciousness, into the beam, the beam will bring into
|
|
manifestation. If someone is trying to hurt you with harmful energy, you can direct the beam
|
|
at the harmful energy sent, and change it into Night Energy and return it to its source, even if
|
|
you do not know who the source is. This is the Night Rite of the Night Energy Beam. So far, you
|
|
have been in the Night Presence of the Dark Sun Goddess/God, you have been in the miniature
|
|
Dark Sun, and have learned to direct the Energy of the Night. Now, you are going to become a
|
|
Dark Sun.
|
|
|
|
You are going to develop the Magician's Night Body and become a Dark Sun. The Magician's
|
|
Night Body is, indeed, unique. You have meditated on the Presences of the Dark Sun
|
|
Goddess/God and Personal Oversoul, and thus it should be well rooted in you, the feeling of
|
|
being a Dark Sun. In developing the Magician's Night Body, begin by dwelling on the Eternal
|
|
Presences of the Dark Sun Goddess/God and Oversoul. You must become filled with Their
|
|
Energy and Substance. The Yin Light for your Magician's Night Body will come from your
|
|
heart Night Center. See the Yin Light filling your entire being, that is, physical, emotional,
|
|
mental, and magickal. The Light that you are going to become is exceedingly dark. Yet it is so
|
|
intense that it glows. You have, thus, prepared yourself as to the Nature of a Dark Sun, the Yin
|
|
Light of a Night, and the Shape of your Night Body. You are ready, then, to begin visualizing
|
|
your Magician's Night Body. You will visualize your Night Body as an intense, pulsating,
|
|
glowing Body of the Night. As your Body begins to take shape, you loose awareness of your
|
|
human form. You are becoming the Dark Sun of the Night. You are beautiful, luminescent,
|
|
and radiant. You are filled with a Radiance of the Night Spirit's Energy and Power. And so,
|
|
filled with the very Essence of the Dark Sun, you repeat this invocation:
|
|
|
|
"I am the Night Soul that glows in the darkness of the night. I am Night Energy and all those
|
|
who gaze on me become the like. I am the Pure Essence of the Oversoul in the form of a Dark
|
|
Sun. I am no longer feeling the material form. I am becoming transcendent and translucent
|
|
and know myself as Pure Night Energy. I am not this physical form but a Body of Pure Night
|
|
Energy. I am the Night Magician, Eternal in the Light of the Night Spirit. I AM the Night
|
|
Magician within my Night Body."
|
|
|
|
You have become a Dark Sun of the Night Spirit. You are Pure Energy. Your visualization has
|
|
become much more. You are no longer just visualizing but have become the Dark Sun in
|
|
Magickal Reality. You are the Night Magician physically, emotionally, mentally, and
|
|
magickally. You are a Dark Sun that shines in the night of your world. These are the four
|
|
Night Rites.
|
|
|
|
They were exercises in the Dark Sun of the Night Spirit. They were Rites carried out under
|
|
Night Consciousness. They are presented here to give you practice in becoming the Dark Sun of
|
|
your life. If you use these Night Rites with dedication, perseverance, and practice them often,
|
|
you will become the Dark Sun of the Night Spirit. In the next subject, you will combine your
|
|
knowledge and use of the Night Powers, Flames, and Rites into Night Healing.
|
|
|
|
47. Night Healing
|
|
|
|
Earlier I presented the subject of healing through the use of color energy. The type of healing I
|
|
will present here is infinitely more potent. Night Healing involves the very Healing Power of
|
|
the Night Spirit. Night Healing is simple to learn but difficult to practice. To practice Night
|
|
Healing, you are going to have to reach Night Consciousness. Night Consciousness is the key to
|
|
Night Healing. Before I go much further into Night Healing, let's discuss the subjects you will
|
|
have to learn which make up Night Healing.
|
|
|
|
In learning Night Healing, I am going to discuss the Seventh Night Power, Invocation,
|
|
Meditation, the Night Body, Night Energy Beam, and the Green Flame. Therefore, since there
|
|
are so many Magickal Tools that you will use in combination with each other, let's start from
|
|
the beginning using Invocation, Meditation, and the Seventh Night Power. This may seem a
|
|
review and in a way it is. You have already covered every subject just mentioned, but it is the
|
|
way that you put them together that brings about Night Healing. You are going to recover each
|
|
subject lightly, and as you do so, you will be putting them together to form Night Healing.
|
|
|
|
You begin, as always, by entering your Magician's Study and darkening the room. Then either
|
|
sit or lie down just so that whatever your choice is, you are as comfortable as possible. You will
|
|
then relax as much as possible; put the Night Pillar around yourself; and practice Night
|
|
Breathing for a few minutes. When you are ready, begin with Invocation.
|
|
|
|
Your invocation, as always, must be directed towards your Oversoul. You are going to visualize
|
|
your Oversoul at the other end of the silver cord. You are going to use the silver cord as you
|
|
would use a telegraph line. You are going to first envision what it is that you are going to heal.
|
|
Is it a person or animal? Is it something internally wrong or external? If it is something
|
|
wrong and you're not quite sure what it is, that's alright. The Oversoul can heal what's wrong
|
|
whether you know what's wrong or not. You are going to envision your very simple message
|
|
traveling up the silver cord and being received by the Oversoul. As you send the message, not
|
|
only should you envision it, but you should say it aloud. You will remember from the topic on
|
|
the Power of Sound what saying your message aloud will do. You should say the invocation at
|
|
least three times. You must keep the invocation simple and concise. A simple invocation
|
|
might be as follows:
|
|
|
|
"I am the Night Presence of the Oversoul. I call upon that Presence to pass through me and to
|
|
(person's name or thing to be healed). The (person or thing) requires the Healing Power of the
|
|
Night Oversoul to correct the (wrong or name the specific condition). As I am performing the
|
|
act of Night Healing raise me into your Night Consciousness and let the healing be done. So be
|
|
it."
|
|
|
|
Through the power of this invocation you have already begun the Magick of Night Healing.
|
|
You have begun your ascent into Night Consciousness. Next, you will enter into Meditation.
|
|
|
|
Your meditation is going to be upon the Healing Oversoul. Let's picture the Healing Oversoul as
|
|
you have always pictured the Oversoul, only you are going to add an Emerald Green Light
|
|
around Its Presence. This Emerald Green Light surrounds the Oversoul as does the Yin Light.
|
|
Feel and know the Healing Power of the Emerald Green Light wherein is contained the Green
|
|
Flame of Night Healing. Go on and enter directly into the Presence of the Oversoul and become
|
|
the Oversoul and Emerald Healing Power that surrounds It. Then you are going to take your
|
|
meditation into the Seventh Night Power.
|
|
|
|
You are going to do more then just meditate upon the Presence of the Oversoul. You are going to
|
|
know yourself as the Healing Oversoul. Its Consciousness and yours are One. You are the
|
|
Healing Oversoul and the Emerald Healing Power. You know, feel, and are the Oversoul. All
|
|
that the Oversoul is, you are. Its very Nature is revealed before you. Its Power, Energy, and
|
|
Healing Energy is yours to use for you are the Healing Oversoul. Thus, you have invoked the
|
|
Seventh Night Power and have become the Emerald Crystal Tool of the Magickal Master. The
|
|
Emerald Light of the Oversoul pours through your nature and transforms you into the Healing
|
|
Oversoul. Now, you are ready to take on the Night Body.
|
|
|
|
As you have entered into Night Consciousness, your very Essence has become radiant and
|
|
luminescent with the Magickal Yin Light. You have become, again, the Dark Sun of the
|
|
Oversoul. You are the Dark Goddess/God. You know yourself as the Pure Energy of the Night
|
|
Spirit. You are no longer a physical being but have become etherial in nature. Again, you
|
|
invoke the Hymn of the Night:
|
|
|
|
"I am the Dark Sun that radiates Night Energy in the night. I am filled with Darkness and
|
|
Energy and all those who gaze on me become the like. I am the Pure Essence of Oversoul in the
|
|
form of the Dark Sun. I am no longer feeling the material form. I have become transcendent
|
|
and translucent and know myself as Pure Night Energy. I am not this physical form but a Body
|
|
of Pure Yin Light. I AM the Night Magician, Eternal in the Light of the Night Spirit. I AM the
|
|
Night Magician."
|
|
|
|
You have become the Oversoul. You are totally ready in Consciousness and Form to use the
|
|
Healing Power of the Night. Thus, you turn to the use of the Night Energy Beam and the Green
|
|
Night Flame.
|
|
|
|
To activate and use the Night Energy Beam, you must turn within to the Heart of your Night
|
|
Being. You are going to envision yourself as a great Silver Night Disk. In front of the Night
|
|
Disk is the Blazing Sun of the Oversoul. The Night Force begins to concentrate, magnify, and
|
|
intensify, until you release it in a narrow Beam of Night Energy. Again, you will remember
|
|
that your Night Consciousness directs the Beam to the receiver. This is the person you are
|
|
going to heal. Now is the time you are going to invoke the Green Night Flame. From out of the
|
|
Oversoul comes the Green Flame. It is a Flame of Dazzling Emerald Green. It is the Power of
|
|
the Night Spirit Healing. The Green Flame brings Healing to all people and all conditions, and
|
|
thus you invoke:
|
|
"By the Power of the Presence of the Oversoul within the Night Heart, I am invoking the Green
|
|
Flame of the Oversoul Healing. I am seeing this Green Flame of the Oversoul Healing filling
|
|
my Night Being. I AM seeing it before the Great Silver Night Disk becoming concentrated,
|
|
magnified, and intensified until it glows as an Emerald Green Night."
|
|
|
|
Thus, by the Oversoul Will, you release the Emerald Green Flame and direct it onto the Night
|
|
Energy Beam. You are using the Beam as a carrier for the Green Flame of the Night Spirit
|
|
Healing. There is a twin action taking place in the person being healed. There is the action of
|
|
the Night Energy in the Beam and also the action of the Green Flame. These Twin Energies of
|
|
the Oversoul will bring about the desired action of Magickal Healing. The action of the
|
|
Oversoul Healing is instantaneous, if the Night Healing is carried out in Night Consciousness.
|
|
This is Night Healing.
|
|
|
|
You have put together the things that you have been learning and practicing into a very
|
|
valuable technique for healing. If you have been studying and practicing with constancy and
|
|
perseverance, then your success at Night Healing will be excellent. Night Healing is the
|
|
Universal Cure for all ills. You will be able to apply a very similar technique, as used here, in
|
|
obtaining physical Immortality.
|
|
|
|
48. Immortality: Transmigration and Transmutation
|
|
|
|
Immortality has been a subject discussed many, many times over the ages. When I speak of
|
|
Immortality there is generally two ways that it can be viewed. The first is the Immortality of
|
|
the physical form. The physical body can be Eternal and live forever. This has perpetuated the
|
|
myths of the Fountain of Youth and the Philosopher's Stone of the Ancient Alchemists. The
|
|
second is the Immortality of the soul. That is, after physical death, the personality continues
|
|
to live on forever in the Night Realm. It is the idea that "I who am I will always be I, now and
|
|
forever". I am going to discuss both types. The emphasis will be on the Immortality of the
|
|
physical body. That is, I consider it to be the most important. Let's begin the discussion with
|
|
transmigration.
|
|
|
|
Transmigration is the transference of the soul or personality from one physical body to
|
|
another without the normal rest between lives associated with in reincarnation. The body, the
|
|
soul transfers to, may be of a newly born infant or one of more advanced age. Transmigration
|
|
is also the entry by a disembodied Night Teacher into a body of advance age. The age being
|
|
determined by what is available and what is needed by the disembodied Night Teacher. This is
|
|
not so far-out as it may seem.
|
|
|
|
We have discussed many times that you are not the physical body, but the emotional, mental,
|
|
and magickal nature of being. The physical body is only a house in which you reside. It is a
|
|
special vehicle created especially for you to operate through here on Earth. As Shakespeare
|
|
said, "All the world is a stage and you are but the actor on it." You are acting out a certain part
|
|
while you are here and the physical body is nothing more then a costume in which to appear
|
|
and act in. So, transmigration is simply changing from one costume and role, to another
|
|
costume and role. It is simply entering a new house which is about to be vacated by its old
|
|
occupant. The how's of transmigration are not so difficult to understand.
|
|
|
|
I have spoke of the silver cord many times. It is your life line from your Oversoul to you. The
|
|
silver cord is anchored into your physical heart. You know from Astral Projection that you
|
|
can leave the body at night and travel in many other realms. The physical body continues to
|
|
live only because the silver cord is still attached to it in the heart. In transmigration, you
|
|
remove the silver cord from the old residence, which dies, and move it to the new residence
|
|
where it is anchored into the new heart. At the very same time, the former occupant, who was
|
|
resident in the body that is about to be newly inhabited, is removed and set free into the Astral
|
|
Realm. This is a very delicate procedure. It may be easy to imagine, but it is difficult to
|
|
perform. There are very special Astral Night Spirits who are especially trained to perform
|
|
such a magickal operation. The procedure is basically the same for a disembodied Night
|
|
Teacher wanting a physical body. There are very special considerations that have to be taken,
|
|
before transmigration can take place.
|
|
|
|
First of all, the person giving up the body that is about to be newly occupied, must voluntarily
|
|
want to do so. It cannot be done against their will. There are many reasons why s/he may
|
|
want to do so. The person may be very tired of living on Earth. Her/His life may have been a
|
|
very difficult one and s/he feels there is very little left for her/him in life. This person may
|
|
even be contemplating suicide. In another case, the person may have almost completed what
|
|
s/he came into the world to accomplish and death may soon happen even though the body may
|
|
be in good health. Therefore, before letting suicide occur in the first case, or natural death in
|
|
the other, the individual is approached, while s/he is in the Astral, about going through
|
|
transmigration. If s/he consents to the transfer then it can be done. This is not an easy way
|
|
out for the possible suicide. It is her/his chance for doing something very worth while in life.
|
|
There is another consideration that must be met; the basic frequencies must be the same or
|
|
closely similar.
|
|
|
|
Not everyone is a suitable candidate for transmigration. The person leaving, and the person
|
|
entering, must be closely related in basic vibration. This does not mean that they must be of
|
|
the same magickal level. Everyone has a basic frequency that is akin to the frequency of a
|
|
musical note. It is a frequency that is set from the Nature of the Oversoul. If the frequencies of
|
|
the two are very close, then the transfer can take place.
|
|
|
|
There are many reasons why transmigration would be necessary. For example, if a person had
|
|
worked all their life at a very special project that would do much towards the advancement of
|
|
humankind, but s/he had not quite finished and the span of her/his body was about to expire,
|
|
what would or could s/he do? By special arrangement through the Night Guild s/he could
|
|
undergo transmigration. This could occur before the life span of the old body was finished or
|
|
shortly after bodily death. The control of transmigration is in the hands of the World
|
|
Directors. Suppose now, that the Night Guild needed to put one of its Emissaries in the world.
|
|
They want her/him there now and functioning in her/his task. This is another use of
|
|
transmigration. Now it is time to consider another form of Immortality.
|
|
|
|
This is transmutation. The definition of transmutation is "to change". You are going to
|
|
transmute or change the substance of your physical body into the Oversoul Body. To begin
|
|
with, this process is threefold. It deals with the transmutation of your physical body and your
|
|
emotional and mental attitudes. The discussion will deal with all three, and we'll start with
|
|
the physical.
|
|
The transmutation of the physical begins with proper diet. You must eat correctly. You must
|
|
have the proper diet that provides you with the best of health. You must not overeat anything
|
|
to excess. The best diet is one that eliminates all meat. You must have the proper amounts of
|
|
exercise and rest. You must keep your body clean. The rule is to treat the body with respect and
|
|
proper care. This is the beginning of the transmutation of the physical body and is followed by
|
|
the transmutation of your emotions.
|
|
|
|
You must feel young, alive, and vibrant. You must feel the eternalness of being young. You
|
|
must feel the very Youth of the Oversoul flowing through you. It is essential that you manifest
|
|
only thoughts of being alive in the Oversoul. If you feel young, you are young. If you feel alive
|
|
and ready for any challenge by the world, then you will remain in perpetual youth forever. The
|
|
only thing that causes you to grow old is the negative emotions that you allow to enter into
|
|
your world. You grow old through worry, tension, and anger. If you keep your emotions
|
|
centered in the Oversoul, then you shall become Immortal. Not only is feeling Immortal
|
|
important, but thinking Immortal is of the utmost importance.
|
|
|
|
Your thoughts must be centered in the Oversoul Mind. Not only do you feel alive and vibrant,
|
|
but you know that you are. Your thoughts are not troubled by the concerns of the world, for
|
|
those concerns shall find their own solutions. Your thoughts are centered on the Immortal
|
|
Oversoul, and you know that you are the Immortal Oversoul. When you know that you are
|
|
Immortal, and feel Immortal, then there is only one thing left to do, and that is to apply your
|
|
Night Powers and Flames to your Immortality.
|
|
|
|
The application for the use of the Night Powers and Flames is very similar to what you learned
|
|
in Night Healing. You will begin with Invocation, in telling your Oversoul that you are going to
|
|
use both the Green Flame of the Night Spirit Healing and the Night Flame to reach
|
|
Immortality. Then, you will move into the next phase, that of meditation and the Seventh
|
|
Night Power. You will use the same meditation on both the subjects of Healing and
|
|
Immortality. You already have learned how to do it for Healing. You then will begin with
|
|
meditation on Immortality. You shall dwell on the Immortal Oversoul within you. Then, you
|
|
shall take this meditation into the Seventh Night Power.
|
|
|
|
Thus, you shall do more then just meditate on Immortality, you shall come to know the very
|
|
essence of Immortality. You shall absorb that essence of Immortality into your Inner
|
|
Awareness and become Immortal. So first, the meditation on the Healing Oversoul, then the
|
|
meditation on the Immortal Oversoul. You take both of these meditations into the Seventh
|
|
Power and you are ready to continue, in Night Consciousness, with the Night Body. You will
|
|
use the very same procedure in acquiring the Night Body as I have outlined in Night Healing.
|
|
Since this is Self-healing and Immortality that you are learning, you will omit the use of the
|
|
Night Energy Beam. You are going to retain the Energies of the Night Flames. Then, you will
|
|
continue the procedure, by invoking the Emerald Green Flame as you did in the last topic. Once
|
|
you have used the Green Flame sufficiently, as to feel cleansed of all imperfections and
|
|
afflictions, then you are ready to invoke the Black Flame. The invocation for the Black Flame
|
|
in this case is as follows:
|
|
|
|
"I am the Presence of the Oversoul and I am invoking the powerful Black Night Flame to
|
|
transmute the human body to an Eternal Oversoul Body. I behold the Night Flame entering
|
|
within my three material forms and Purifying, Transmuting, and being made wholly into the
|
|
Night Soul of Life. I am filled with the Transmuting Night Flame that is changing my material
|
|
form into the Everlasting Form of the Oversoul. I am Eternal in the Oversoul; that which I am
|
|
shall never experience physical death again; I AM Immortal as the Oversoul in the Oversoul
|
|
Body. So be it."
|
|
|
|
Then, you shall bathe in the Black Night Flame, until you have become Bodily Immortal in the
|
|
Oversoul. This is transmutation. You are Immortal in Soul and can be in material form.
|
|
|
|
Whether you are able to achieve the Immortality of your mortal form or not, you are forever
|
|
Immortal in Soul and Night Spirit. You are very close to the end of Fire Magick. You have
|
|
come a very long way on the road of Night Magick. Yet, in Magickal Reality, you have only
|
|
begun to learn a small portion of the lore of Night Magick. You have only just begun the trek
|
|
towards Home. Still, there must be an ending to your first studies in Night Magick, so I will
|
|
close with the final topic on the past, present, and future of Night Magicians.
|
|
|
|
|
|
49. Night Magicians: Past, Present, and Future
|
|
|
|
This is the concluding topic in the lore of Night Magick. You have gone through all the
|
|
elements of Night Magick. You have covered Earth, Water, Air, and Fire and have learned the
|
|
basics of each. Yet, in actuality, you have hardly scratched the surface. You have only just
|
|
begun to learn Night Magick. There is still so much more to learn.
|
|
|
|
There is no end to the body of knowledge that is Night Magick. You must always search for
|
|
knowledge and wisdom wherever it may be, for this is Night Magick. No Night Magician ever
|
|
stops learning or comes to know it all. You will always be unfolding the Night Powers that lie
|
|
within you. For your final topic, as in the beginning, I would like to speak once more about
|
|
Night Magicians.
|
|
|
|
I would like to present the Night Magicians of the past, giving their origin, purpose, and names;
|
|
of the present, again speaking of their origin and purpose; the future, taking a glimpse of what
|
|
might be. To begin this presentation, I would like to discuss the Night Magicians of the Past.
|
|
|
|
In the beginning of distant civilization the Dragon Tiamat taught humankind the knowledge
|
|
and wisdom of Night Magick. Civilizations flourished under Night Magick and the Earth was a
|
|
beautiful and wonderful place. Then came the invasion by the Yang and the destruction of the
|
|
Yin civilizations. But even among the Yang gods and goddesses there were the Yin.
|
|
|
|
Among the gods and goddesses were Set, Isis, Nuit, Loki, Pan, Cybele, Hecate, Kali, Bacchus,
|
|
and others who were known to give the other gods and goddesses trouble. Among humankind
|
|
the Night Religions and Night Magick continued.
|
|
|
|
There are the worshippers and practitioners of the dark religions of the above listed gods and
|
|
goddesses. There are also the ancient religions of the Druids and the North and South
|
|
American Indians. There are the religions of Africa and other so-called dark continents.
|
|
There is Voodoo. Many of these continue to remain in existence today. There are also
|
|
individual practitioners of the past.
|
|
|
|
There are Night Magicians such as Abra Melin, and Abraham the Jew, Cagliostro, Althotas,
|
|
Comte de Sainte-Germain, Aleister Crowley, Baian, Jeanne Belloc, Dr. Lamb, Marie Le
|
|
Normand, Henry Cornelius Agrippa, Paracelsus, Jacob Boehme, Eliphas Levi, Marie Laveau,
|
|
Alexander Seton, and William Butler Yeats.
|
|
|
|
There are also Night Magicians of the present, but I cannot name them here. This is still very
|
|
much a Yang world with great hatred for those devoted to the world of Night Magick. So all I
|
|
will say is that Night Magicians can be found in all walks of life. There are no barriers to those
|
|
of the Night World. What all Night Magicians have in common is the preparation for the
|
|
future.
|
|
|
|
The future of humankind is bleak. With the pollution and rape of this world by humankind
|
|
the Earth will soon rid itself of much of the cancer that is causing its death. There are many
|
|
predictions about when this period of life is going to happen. Prophets have been forecasting
|
|
this event and the time of its happening for ages. But determining the exact date of this
|
|
happening is like trying to forecast the first snowfall of the winter. There are a great deal of
|
|
things that determine when it will first snow, and so with this event. I can say that some of the
|
|
signs of this happening have already begun to manifest.
|
|
|
|
There has been an increasingly large number of natural disasters. There has and will continue
|
|
to be a large number of shifts going on within the Earth. This will give earthquakes,
|
|
volcanoes, and the rising and lowering of land. There will be terrible storms that will cause
|
|
widespread destruction. There will be flooding, extremes of heat and cold, draughts and all
|
|
kinds of out of the ordinary weather changes. There will be a great deal of panic and terror
|
|
among the citizenry. The skies will have a very unusual glow to them and be of a reddish black
|
|
hue. There will be great shifts in the land with some rising and others falling. Some of the
|
|
land will be covered with water and other portions, currently under water, will rise up into the
|
|
open air. Not only will the land be undergoing a major shift, but there will also be political
|
|
and social upheaval. This is a time of the Earth's balancing the large amounts of karma that
|
|
humankind has created. It is a time of correcting the harm that humankind has done to the
|
|
body of the planet itself. This is not presented here to bring panic and fear into anyone's heart.
|
|
It is presented in an explicit manner so you can do something about it.
|
|
|
|
Futures don't have to be written in stone. They can be changed. You can help the future to
|
|
change by practicing Night Magick. It is a way of preparing yourself for the changes about to
|
|
take place. There is much you have learned in Night Magick that can help you prepare. You
|
|
could use psychometry to find a safe place to be when the trouble begins. You can learn to give
|
|
the Earth healing energy and give back to it vitality it has lost. You can stop any destructive
|
|
practices which cause further harm to the Earth. You can be part of many voices trying to
|
|
change the way the Earth is slowly being destroyed. You can use Night Magick to influence
|
|
those who make decisions. The future is an odd thing.
|
|
|
|
Sometimes you can look forward and feel what is ahead, but it is always based upon the
|
|
probabilities, or possibilities that will open up before you. If you could stand high upon a
|
|
mountain and look at your future, it would seem like there are many roads that lay before you
|
|
and all the choices that determine which road you take are yours to choose. You would find
|
|
that even from your lofty height, you could not see the end of the road you chose, or its
|
|
outcome. But one road you have already chosen will insure a bright future. Of course this is
|
|
the Night Road of a Night Magician.
|
|
|
|
To travel the Night Road you must have a desire to learn and a willingness to experiment. You
|
|
must be adventurous and love excitement and the unusual. You must be willing to be tested and
|
|
trials will come your way. But the outcome of traveling the Night Road leads to victory in life.
|
|
The Night Road leads to the Night Magician's Dream.
|
|
|
|
A Night Magician's Dream
|
|
|
|
Picture if you will a Land of Enchantment; a Land of Honor, Strength, and Energy. The Land of
|
|
the Night Magicians. This is the Land in which your dreams evolve from within. Reality is
|
|
seen through your Night Eye and felt through your Night Heart. You are as rich as your Soul is
|
|
in the Eternal Night. You are as young as the Oversoul is within you. Search within your
|
|
heart, within the Heart of Creativity, and become the Living Oversoul. The Night Magician is,
|
|
knows, and becomes all. They exist within all things; such is the Night Consciousness of the
|
|
Oversoul in them. They are free of self-limitations and control the world of form, and the
|
|
things found in it. They are Pure in Night Spirit. They transcend all things: space, time, and
|
|
the world around them.
|
|
|
|
Believe as you will; what you are is all that is; what you will be is limited by yourself; this is
|
|
your creed and your life as it is within you. No longer bound by the limitations of a Yang, past
|
|
world, you are the Progress of a New Age, an Age of the Night World. You are the Foundation of
|
|
Time and Space. You are the Strength of the Night Spirit. If only in the hearts of all, you were
|
|
what you felt when you dream, then there could exist no wrong ideas.
|
|
|
|
There is potential in thought and ideas, and it is for Humanity to bring them out of the Void.
|
|
Only Humanity can be what they believe their selves to be. They cannot be what they don't
|
|
believe is possible to be. Freedom begins in thought and when Manifest in Action can be Truth
|
|
as the Night Spirit sees the Truth: focused on a Point in Time; balanced on the Edge of Infinity.
|
|
|
|
Believe in yourself and your ability to succeed in all things. Only you control you; only you can
|
|
find happiness; only you make the destiny that lies before you. You are a Channel for the
|
|
Eternal Night; use this right, and bring forth into your world the Energy of the Night and make
|
|
Humanity what They can be as the Night Spirit Wills. You are the strength of the Earth and
|
|
only you can open the Doorway to your Success. Be what you Believe, and be what you can be,
|
|
for no one can limit, another. You can only limit Yourself. The challenge of life is to know
|
|
thyself; to know how one limits another, and how to be all you can be in life and Night Magick.
|
|
|
|
The Night Magician is the Knower, the Doer, and is the Night Spirit within all things. There
|
|
Responsibility lies with the Night Spirit and the Oversoul. They are the Heart of all things,
|
|
bringing Humanity into harmony with Nature, and the world into harmony with the Night
|
|
Spirit.
|
|
|
|
You are the One who becomes Your Dreams; who is unlimited by Your Energy for all things, for
|
|
Your Energy is Boundless and Eternal. No longer in this world is the Door shut to this One; the
|
|
One who has become the Night Magician.

APPENDIX A
|
|
|
|
INVOCATIONS, HYMNS, POEMS, AND PRAYERS
|
|
|
|
1. Invocation for the Night Magician's Pillar of Protection.
|
|
|
|
I am a Night Magician surrounded in a Pillar of Night Energy that cannot be penetrated. It
|
|
repels all energy that would harm me. It repels all thoughts and emotional energy of my
|
|
enemies. Through the Power of my Oversoul, I am protected in a Pillar of Night Energy and
|
|
cannot be harmed. May this Night Pillar remain around me at all times keeping me out of
|
|
harms way. So be it.
|
|
|
|
2. Ritual Invocations
|
|
|
|
Each ritual will begin by your stepping into the Night Circle and putting on your Night
|
|
Weapons and Cape. After this place the Night Pillar around you. Do not leave the Circle until
|
|
the end of the ritual and be sure and re-enforce the Night Pillar around and through you before
|
|
leaving the Night Circle. Go through the actions of consecrating the Night Circle with earth,
|
|
water, air, and fire each time. Fill the chalice, say the invocation, and drink the wine each
|
|
time. Then always ring the bell and summon the Night Deities. These are the basic procedures
|
|
you will begin each ritual which takes place within the Night Circle.
|
|
|
|
Now pick up the bell and ring it six times in each major direction, that is North, South, East
|
|
and West. Then repeat the following invocation, "I who am (give your Night Name) summon
|
|
the Presence of all Deities in the Night Force to attend my ritual of Eternal Night. We now
|
|
stand in the Eternal Night beyond time and space. Come and witness my Ritual of the Night".
|
|
|
|
After this, pick up the salt container, and repeat the following: "By my sacred name, (give your
|
|
Night Name), through the Presence of my Oversoul and the Eternal Earth Deities, I invoke the
|
|
Earth Night Power into this container of salt and now place the salt upon the earth to mark the
|
|
boundary of my sacred circle." Visualize the Earth Deities filling the vessel with their power.
|
|
Pinch a little salt lightly between your fingers dropping it on the floor over the cord going
|
|
completely around the circle. BE CAREFUL NOT TO STEP OUTSIDE THE CIRCLE FOR THE
|
|
REMAINDER OF THE RITUAL. Place the salt container back on the Night Altar and pick up
|
|
the crystal bowl of water.
|
|
|
|
Repeat the following: "May the Presence of my Oversoul and the Eternal Water Deities fill this
|
|
water and container and endow it with the Water Night Power." Visualize the Water Deities of
|
|
the Earth filling the vessel with the power. With your left hand dip it into the water and
|
|
sprinkle lightly the boundary you have already marked with the salt. Place the water bowl
|
|
back on the altar and pick up the incense burner. Repeat the following: "Let the Presence of the
|
|
Four Winds of the Earth enter into the incense burner filling it with Air Night Power". Now
|
|
face each direction, rotating counterclockwise, and see the Presence of each Wind Deity enter
|
|
into the incense burner. Then circle four times in a counterclockwise manner around and
|
|
within the Magick Circle. Place the incense burner back on the Night Altar and pick up the
|
|
candle.
|
|
|
|
Repeat the following: "May the Presence of my Oversoul and the Fire Deities of the Earth place
|
|
their sacred flame here within my candles and upon my Night Altar." See the Fire Deities
|
|
come and dance around the flames and upon your altar. Place the candle back where it came
|
|
from and pick up the chalice of wine or juice. Repeat the following: "Let the Presence of my
|
|
Oversoul and the Eternal Darkness enter into the liquid and fill it with the Power of the
|
|
Eternal Night. May this elixir give me strength, healing, and courage each day of my life." Feel
|
|
the Power flow through you and into the chalice. See the energy collect and concentrate till the
|
|
chalice glows with Night Energy.
|
|
Now face each direction and repeat the following: "Thank you Night Deities for your
|
|
attendance at this sacred Night Rite. May we ever serve the Eternal Powers of Darkness here
|
|
on Earth and the Omniverse forever. So be it."
|
|
|
|
At this point stop and re-enforce your Night Pillar and then take off all your Night Weapons
|
|
and place them back upon the Night Altar. Leave the cord in place on the floor.
|
|
|
|
3. Invocation to Night Magick.
|
|
|
|
I,(give your Night Name), commit my all to the Oversoul and the Night Spirit within, and to the
|
|
dedication of my Magickal Energies to the practice of Night Magick. I dedicate myself to the
|
|
Oversoul within and to my union with it in Night Consciousness. May these Night Tools and
|
|
Weapons serve me ever in this cause. So be it.
|
|
|
|
4. Invocation to the Cosmic Being of the(insert-direction).
|
|
|
|
I invoke the Great Powers of the Cosmic Being of the (insert direction) to flow into my being.
|
|
Fill me with the Cosmic Power of (insert element). Renew me in the Power of Night
|
|
Consciousness. Make me a Being of Cosmic Yin Light. Guide me upon the Road of Night
|
|
Magick."
|
|
|
|
5. Invocation for Night Projection.
|
|
|
|
On this day ___, I am going to Night Project. I am going to travel in the Astral Realm and
