The Grimoire Of Xenobrian

Duality

Irrefutable proof of existence has been established vis-a-vi our experience of consciousness. The cause of this existence, by necessity, being greater than, or equal to itself in sophistication, had to impart qualities of itself into this creation, there being nothing else initially to draw upon. However, being all, there would be no purpose in creating a duplicate, as it would merge into the whole and become irrelevant. 

Therefore, the architect of experience, in a stroke of brilliance, created the exact opposite of itself. In other words, something created nothing, meaning, in order to expand and become non-repeating, existence had to obliterate itself. Quite the paradox. This expansion protocol can be thought of as the universe splitting itself in two diametrically opposed parts. 

How can nothing exist? The very idea of it defies all rationality, therefore it is representative of rationality itself being annihilated. Yet rationally, existence persists. This implies that rationality, or intelligence, or consciousness, is a concept that is capable of being quantified. Minute fragments of creation.

But why? Because of the apparently perpetually sustained paradox mentioned previously. Existence exists, yet must be eradicated. Ergo, parts of creation are dismantled at a foundational level for the purposes of differentiating consciousness from previous iterations. This progression from one iteration to the next, each unique from one another results in the sentient beings experience of linear time.

But I digress. We are here to discuss duality. In order to quantify the fuel that powers the continued diversification of the universe, or consciousness itself, it is helpful, though not necessarily completely accurate to think in terms of individual units of consciousness. People. Animals and plants appear to harbor rudimentary levels of conscious choice, but for the purposes of this essay your authorship will focus on the form of intelligence he understands best. 

The fact of this matter is, people choose to die, wether consciously or not, in order to perpetuate an infinitely novel, constantly expanding plane of existence. Whether or not they understand their ultimate sacrifice, for it stands to reason that there can be no compromise with complete annihilation, is somewhat irrelevant to the architect and the system it created. 

So now that it is understood why individual units of consciousness must necessarily perish, these concepts now beg the question of how the distinction is made between the units of consciousness which disintegrate and those that persist. This is determined by individual behavior. Thus, we come at long last to the traditional system of morality that pervades every spiritual inclination as well as philosophical text known throughout the entire world. Good and Evil.

These two inverse modalities of cognitive processing, of their existence, make possible the existence of free will. With every conscious choice of an individual, he or she gravitates toward one pole or the other. Experience or non-experience; with split decisions being adjudicated by the collective, or a jury of ones peers. Thus, in one fell swoop, infinite intelligence created an infallible filtering mechanism to advance and refine its magnificence as well as permanently destroy those aspects of itself that do not align with infinitely expanding and novel creation. 

Now the importance of upright moral behavior makes itself apparent in one simple question. Which underlies the very heartbeat of existence. “Do I, as an individual choose to live, or do I choose to die?” Those who make death decisions consistently enough are not worth writing about because there is little more to say. They chose to enact destruction and evil upon creation, therefore they are categorized as evil and are inevitably destroyed. The perception that they exist at all is only a function of the necessity for linear time which I mentioned earlier. From the perspective of good entities, who endure for countless eons, evil ones are created as an unfortunate by-product of evolution, and are immediately incinerated. 

The people who choose to conceptualize, nurture, support, and interact with one another are welcomed into the collective super-consciousness and granted ultimate divine authority in direct proportion to their ability to argue with their peers and convince them of their case for altering reality both spiritual and material, in whatever way the collective so chooses. 

Embodying the very epitome of divine paradox, these beings, also known as people, are simultaneously individuals and one and the same ultimate being. This being is known to the layman simply as God. However, first hand experience has demonstrated that the word God is more of a title to be earned by individuals within the collective spiritual oversoul. Many individual Gods all connected at the deepest levels of thought, emotion, and experience with each other. Personalities that are more similar on a soul matrix level are in closer communication than those of dissimilar personality. These personality matrices are constructed of thousands of instances of duality, which shall hence-forth be referred to as polarities. 

The original split of being and non-being created the universe as we know it. All instances and attributes of said creation demonstrate polarity in any way the observer is keen enough to perceive them. Light and dark, Man and Woman, hot and cold, the list goes on and on as the observer contemplates the deepest levels of how reality is put together at its foundations. So then is cold evil and hot good? Of course not. The very notion sounds absurd, and the reader is obliged to recall that in traditional wester spiritualities hell has been described as both really hot and really cold. Polarity simply enables the diversification of the universe. E plubris unim, and vise-versa. 

Telepathy

So its real. Formulate the thought and send it to the desired recipient. Unfortunately there are several major caveats and complications that need to be discussed before the reader goes off conducting his or her own occult experiments. Along the axis of complete separation and total interconnectedness, those who tend towards separation are less likely to figure out all of the rules and eccentricities of mind to mind instantaneous communication. Those who tend towards complete separation declare to the spiritual hierarchy in no uncertain terms that they aren’t yet ready for the divine creation schema and tend towards evil, because its far easier for them to rationalize as possible, the impossible notion that their thoughts and actions aren’t being watched and judged accordingly at every moment. This however is only a tendency and correlation is not the same as causation.

So for those who wish to communicate with others, it would be very much appreciated by the people in the other camp if their desires were taken into consideration so they don’t have to live every day being pestered by chatterboxes. Another salient point of consideration for the aspirant telepath is just how many people are on this Earth. Billions. Were this divine ability to be totally unregulated, each individual consciousness would be instantaneously overwhelmed by an overpowering miasma of intentionally broadcasted thoughts. Thus, a moderator is needed, not only to settle disputes, but to ensure that people are able to communicate with their intended parties without bothering the folks who are just trying to enjoy a cigar quietly on their back porch. In fact, the more one ponders this topic in total sincerity the more problems occur to the aspirant towards initiation.

What about the phenomenon of gang-stalking? The possibility of compulsive liars muddying the waters and intentionally spreading confusion at all hours of the day, simply because they enjoy witnessing pandemonium? How about the danger of developing a relationship with either a perpetual incubus or succubus, one who constantly drags your mind into the gutter of unrelenting sexual obsession? Having dealt with all the aforementioned delinquents the author assures you that these people are definitely out there.

These are but three of the most poignant examples of stumbling blocks you will encounter on the road to your own initiation. Fear not. The supreme architect has devised a stratification system to ensure that birds of a feather flock together. Engaging with these types of people is a choice. If you do become enamored the modus operandi of these baneful occultists, you will have none other to blame than yourself. Transcending the levels of this stratification system becomes possible when you govern your own mind relentlessly. When you do “level up” you are afforded some measure of protection against these dead end modes of thinking and behaving. The alternative to constant vigilance is ignorance. And one who lives in ignore-ance in many ways, deserves to live within the corrupting influence of these vile individuals. Do not be surprised when you are bluntly instructed to cease communicating with someone you have known for a while the grounds that they are a degrading influence to your ascension. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to exercise your judgement in what type of company you rationalize is best for your development. 

With just a few important warnings and words of precaution out of the way, its time to delve into the nuts-and-bolts of how exactly this judiciously governed communication ability actually functions. First and foremost, because it is quite possibly the most important consideration is the concept of volume. Ponder for a moment the workings of your stereo. When the parameters of the volume function are activated to increase the decibel level, the likely-hood of people who are further away perceiving the information within your chosen recording increases. The same holds true of each and every human voice, telepathic or mundane. In most instances, this result is inadvisable. In order to counteract this undesirable result, source intelligence has devised a somewhat cumbersome volume reduction countermeasure. 

Visualization. If the aspirant wishes for their broadcasts to remain much more private, they must simultaneously imagine in their minds eye the intended recipient of their message as well as deliver it vocally the lowest volume which the other party is capable of hearing it. However even with these techniques employed, one hundred percent confidentiality is never assured. A more advanced methodology is also available. Thought and meaning are independent of words and language. Experienced occultists are practiced at compressing entire sentences into data packets and sending them successfully to their intended recipients, without so much as a single word being uttered. The initiate is also encouraged to communicate with images and hieroglyphs. Again, there is no guarantee that your transmissions will not be intercepted. 

Keep in mind also, that each and every human, as well as animals are involuntarily sending out emotional waves. The recipients of said waves refer to this phenomenon as empathy. Empathic individuals, at least the ones with a high degree of sensitivity, often feel burdened and or overwhelmed with the constant barrage of negative emotions radiating off undesirables within their immediate vicinity. Techniques for nullifying these cumbersome foreign emotions will be discussed in the “Wards” section of this Grimoire. For now though, keen empathy is a sure sign that you are on you way to becoming an occultist of some repute.

The Subconscious Mind and Repetition 

If a logical mind follows a step by step chronological process, it will conclude that all of creation moves invariably from simple to complex. This holds true for cognitive development in an evolutionary sense as well. The initial neurological hardware of the animal kingdom was rather basic, and still is in many instances. It governed little more that physiological functions like breathing and digestion, movement, procuring sustenance, and mating behavior. 

As epigenetic selection pressures shaped the brains of individuals generation after generation, more complex hardware such as emotional centers, audio and visual regions, and in mammals social functions developed. These zones are collectively referred to as the subconscious mind. Proceeding towards more complexity, especially in humans, the cerebral cortex was established. Initially, only a thin layer of neurons coating the front brain region, the cerebellum has come to dominate the behavior of humans, and can override most functions of the subconscious mind if it so chooses. Within the crown jewel is the capacity for abstract thought. It predicts future events based upon historical data, such as the trajectory of an arc, the likelihood of the French to surrender, or a reasonable timeframe before you can attempt to finger bang Mary Jane Rottencrotch. 

The subconscious mind can be thought of, for our purposes as magicians, as the frontal cortexes slave. Sometimes slaves become unruly and must be flogged until they are back to preforming their menial duties, freeing the slave master to enact his or her more intellectual agenda. This is where the Grimoire strays into contemporary self help milieus and instructs the reader to cultivate beneficial habits at all costs. The master is required to govern strictly the slaves until such time as the slaves carry out the repetitive responsibilities of the master without too much supervision. Masters always work harder than slaves. Remember this. 

The only way to change a habit, otherwise known as the default behavioral programming of your subconscious mind, is through relentless repetition. It is the sole responsibility of the conscious mind to enact these repetitions until such time as the electronic and protein pathways in the subconscious brain have rerouted. This phenomenon is referred to as neural plasticity This process, the subconscious mind has been known to protest vehemently. Struggling past such infantile objections is referred to as exercising willpower. It is whole heartedly recommended that you develop this ability to your utmost capacity if you are to claim the title of arch-mage. The mammalian brain can be thought of as simply another survival organ like the stomach or lungs. As far as its concerned, what it did yesterday didn’t result in physical death, so its doing a good job. Our standards are higher than this.

The usefulness of repetition is well known to advertising and music executives. Someone who sits down to watch a two hour movie could potentially see the same cheeseburger or pizza seventeen times. Once your default cognitive pathways have been changed with repetition the conscious mind is no longer effective at combatting the constant suggestion that there is junk food in your reality. Music industry overlords are able to use repetition to build, via top down integration, multi-platinum record selling artists. The music itself does not have to be of exceptional quality as long as they own the means to repetition, supporters of a carefully cultivated artist will be generated. The result in both of these examples is that currency is generated and funneled the way of the business executives. 

Now that we have established that modern technology can be used to generate repetitions that change the subconscious mind, the author is prepared to divulge an extremely useful occulted technique. Customized subliminal affirmation reprogramming. 

An affirmation is one individuals statement of belief  regarding how the universe operates. These statements are usually one sentence and vary in complexity. Example: “I am” vs. “ I am the alpha and the omega, the universe is mine to command, and the very structure of creation continually rearranges itself in order to suit my purposes.” However, keep in mind that the more complex your customized affirmations are, the longer it will take before the electrical pathways in your brain change to suit your specific purposes. In olden days these affirmations, otherwise known as incantations, were usually supplemented with sorcery or simply charged with divine power. So you had to choose carefully which ones were to be repeated on a day by day basis. Your authorship is of the judgement that all affirmations should be of a positive nature as it is the subconscious minds delegation to facilitate action, not inaction. Inaction, if experience holds, is the purview of the conscious mind. I.E. “I always refrain from smoking in order to pursue other interests.” Vs. “I never smoke.” 

Fortunately, with the advent of modern technology a passive method of imbibing affirmations has been established. Provided the acolyte owns a modern computer equipped with digital audio workstation software, he or she is capable of reprogramming their mind with whatever statements suit their purposes. The initiate may use either a simple microphone to record their statements in their own voice, or text to speech software and digest their affirmations using a simple set of headphones. 

All audio reproductions of affirmations must be in a decibel level just below the level of conscious understanding. By bypassing the prefrontal cortex these universal statements are allowed to reconstruct the subconscious mind without interference from your previously established beleiveatures. 

No subliminal recording would be complete without at least one backing track. A bi-neural theta wave encourages the brain to enter a hypnogogic state. 7Hz seems to be the sweet spot for encouraging relaxation, which helps the incantations to absorb. The apprentice is encouraged to experiment with different frequencies while keeping in mind numerological significance. Consider using Alpha, Beta, and Delta waves according to the numerological significance of the topic that is being reprogrammed. 

Subliminal recordings of pre-eminent quality should also contain a backing track of a continuous natural element. Nature sounds such as rainfall, a babbling brook, a crackling fireplace or chirping birds in a forest setting. Again, experiment with different backing elements depending upon the subject which you are reprogramming, such as using the fire element for martial prowess, or the water element for social interactions as it corresponds to emotionality. 

Learning the technical aspect of subliminal reprogramming is within the capacity of anyone with an intelligence quotient of 80, and from there, the possibilities are endless. A word of caution… Be extremely judicious when devising your customized affirmations. Diligence and fore thought is mandatory to build your statements in a way that avoids deleterious consequences to a drastic shifting of reality. This magickal science is not for those lacking in the virtue of courageousness. 

Diet and Weightlifting 

Before delving into specifics, the young mage is forever obligated to remember that your authorship has entitled this chapter in order of importance. When making the sincere attempt to achieve clarity and understanding about any complex topic, it is paramount to begin with first principles. In this case, biological evolution. 

Upon Terra, there are, and always have been, two distinct categories of life that evolve concurrently. Animal and plant. The interplay between these biologically dissimilar kingdoms inevitably results in and amplified evolutionary feedback loop. The Rabbit eats the Rose, so the Rose develops thorns for defense. Therefore the camel develops his miraculous ability to completely ignore such deterrents.

Known examples of this evolutionary arms race fill volumes. But one underlying theme remains constant. For the most part, these two differentiated life branches are at odds with each other, for one simple reason. They consume each other for sustenance. Excluding exotic examples like the Venus fly trap and pitcher plant, the plant kingdom kills the animal in one way. Poison. 

Owing to the fact that at a microscopic level plant cells are much more robust and inflexible than animal cells, they can endure the production of venom systemically. The result being, that over millions of years of simultaneous evolution, there is no part of any vegetation that is compatible at a foundational level with animal biology when consumed for fuel. Put simply: all organisms that engage in photosynthesis are protecting themselves from predation by developing in a way that every part of them is poisonous to animals. Because they cannot move, they are left with little recourse for adequate defense. 

It is a well established fact that cellulose, the primary component of nearly all cells belonging to any type of vegetation is indigestible to humans. Other animals, via the evolutionary interplay mentioned earlier have developed the means to deconstruct cellulose mechanically and chemically, but humans have not. Excluding a tiny fraction of outliers, humanity developed evolutionarily during an ice age. Selection pressures were so severe that the race dwindled to a few thousand members. Only the members of the race with cold tolerance, efficient metabolism, and great skill with hunting survived.

The evidence for humanity embodying an “obligate carnivore” status keeps mounting. Consider the atrophied appendix. At an earlier primate stage, the function of this organ was to produce a powerful acid. One capable of dissolving the rigid cell membranes of fruits and vegetables. Now this organ is considered by accomplished biologists the world over as vestigial. The intestinal structure of humans also resembles that of other predators, such as large cats, in that it is greatly reduced in length, rendering it ineffective at absorbing nutrients from plants. Sensitive forward facing eyes and ears, pointed incisors, superior endurance in comparison to herbivores. The list keeps expanding. Why then do people insist that eating these inherently poisonous organisms is not only health conscious, but preferable to eating a species appropriate diet?

The plant kingdom has developed an insidious intoxicant. One capable of overriding the reasoning faculties of the dominant ape. Sugar. This nutrient category not only delivers massive quantities of energy in regards to its volume, it tastes amazing to any animal capable of procuring it. With the inclusion of sugar to its nutrient profile, vegetation struck a killing blow to animals in general. Plants have found a way to deliver other poisonous chemicals to ambulatory creatures by pairing them with sugar. Bone-heads the world over cite contrivances such as agricultural efficiency, the immorality of eating meat, the supposed health benefits of consuming various plant compounds in pill form, when in reality, they eat plant products because they get a high from them. Addiction is the only justification they require to recommend death to you.

Turn on your television young apprentice. Watch the advertisements specifically. Have your notepad handy and list the subjects being advertised. See a pattern yet? Cookies, then diabetes medication. Potato chips, then macular degeneration medication. Sandwiches with plenty of vegetable oil dressing, then skin condition medication. Gummy bears, then joint pain relief medication. Copious amounts of tomato ketchup flowing in slow motion onto a platter of hot French fries, then hair loss and erectile dysfunction pills. If you don’t get it after reading this far, throw this book in an unused corner of your ramshackle apartment along with the junk food packaging that you keep swearing you’ll throw in the rubbish bin on of theses days. You’re a bum. Fuck you.

Now that it has been established in no uncertain terms what not to do, it is now time to fill the void of poison eating with body building. They young witch or wizard would be wise to remember always that it is foolhardy to attempt to expedite this process. It is inherently dangerous, even when done correctly. Strains, sprains generalized fatigue, restricted movement, and crippling soreness are to be expected. However, when weight training is programmed into the spiritual abbucus for a cost benefit analysis, the benefits far outweigh the effort expenditure, but only when done correctly. 

New gymnasium goers can expect parabolic results in comparison to their energy expenditure. Training two to three days a week after eight to twelve months; a lean muscle addition of fifteen to twenty five pounds is feasible with only the sex and size difference accounting for the variability between specimens. View these “newbie gains” as mandatory for your initiation and get them out of the way. 

Specifics will be avoided for the remainder for this chapter while the master and the apprentice delve into the philosophy behind weight training. First and foremost is adherence to natural order. The phenomenon of newbie gains indicates that there is a set natural size for each member of the species, which, once attained, facilitates the numerous benefits to be expounded upon.

The magician holds himself to a higher standard against common folk. This means you will be working longer hours and engaging in more strenuous physical activity than the peasantry. Eventually, these flea bitten miscreants will notice your superiority and promotion within the dominance hierarchy is the natural result, provided , of course, that you are diligent in neutralizing the baneful curses they send your way. The best way to outclass these willing slaves is to have a superior constitution to avoid or at least mitigate diseases and have much more energy reserves to draw upon in instances of exhaustion. Stored muscle mass provides both these attributes in spades unconsciously, meaning no particular effort is required on the part of the sorcerer to utilize these abilities. 

A properly engineered physique also provides protection against otherwise fatal accidents. Thicker and more substantial or dense musculature protects the skeletal lattice against fracture or breakage and coats delicate internal organs in beefy armor. The authorships paternal grandfather once fell off his horse and snapped his neck. Fortunately for him, he had spent his life up to that point ranching and was of great physical prowess. After spending several weeks on the davenport recovering, he was back to his routine and only became aware of the injuries severity in old age with the advent of x-ray technology. He is still alive at the time of this writing at 94 years old. It is the responsibility of the young initiate to attain their newbie gains without delay and in a prudent way. Meaning minimal time loss to injury, and infrequent skipping of weightlifting sessions.

Finally, we shall discuss attraction and sex. Only a small fraction of magicians choose to forego these innate functions of the divine vessel. For the rest, study of reproduction is a vital topic that supersedes actually engaging in it. As when discussing other bodily functions, such as defication, or urination or the production of earwax, it is recommended that the magus refrain from presenting as overly enamored with such things. A certain level of maturity is expected from this point on.

As long as the apprentice follows the dietary recommendations written about previously, excessive body fat will not be an issue, provided a significant period of time has elapsed for shedding these excess lipids. Once this occurs, the only obstacle to embodying your most attractive temple is the engorgement of the meat organs. Members of either sex are universally attracted in a sexual and spiritual way to the proper development of the human physique. Once dietary restrictions have become habitual, and newbie gains have been established, the physical component of sex and opposite sex attraction are mostly complete. Your authorship will refrain from discussing hygiene on the basis that it is so elementary. Spiritual attraction is discussed in detail in the Nobility chapter. 

Puritan Work Ethic

Just as the final few nails were driven into the coffin of the age of enlightenment in Europe, there emerged a classification of religious fanatics known as the Puritans. Much like the Jews, these eccentrics were so insufferable to their patron states that they were continually exiled from their host nations. Fortunately for them their credo emphasized discipline and productivity just as much as religious observances. Every time their more libertine host nations became fed up with their hard line religiosity and isolationism, there was always a solid family structure, iron clad community, as well as adequate funding available, to fall back on and relocate. It is recommended that the young initiate emulate these pure ones in all but their proclivity towards proselytizing. We are occultists, not mega-phonists. Eventually the most annoying of these people came to the conclusion that the only place they would be permitted to engage in their extremism would be at the other end of a vast ocean. This buttoned-up, tight fisted, conservative spiritual tradition became the dominant spiritual heritage of North America. Left to their own devices in New England, the protestants flourished. As the leaders in church, state, and most of the businesses, the diminishing effects of corruption were unable to find very many footholds in which to sabotage this fledgling nation. The rest is more history that the acolyte is more than likely familiar with. The United States is considered a super power economically and militarily and its cultural influence encompasses the globe. 

Be pure yourself young mage, and you can expect similar results, though in the microcosm. In essence this chapter can be viewed as detailed instruction in what not to do. By taking the religiosity out of these topics of decay it is presumed that the solitary magickal practitioner will come to the same lifestyle habits of the Puritans, but from a vantage point of practical understanding. Not religious zealotry. 

First and foremost among the admirable qualities of the Puritans to be invoked by the apprentice is the propensity to engage in their chosen vocation with much fervor. This societal role is to be viewed as an end in and of itself. Only mouth-breathing cretins view their necessary work as a means to an end, I.E., their paycheck. Once this simple flipping of priorities has happened for the acolyte, automatic behavioral changes regarding their labors will occur. Reprioritization will flow naturally as the student begins to strategize from a stance of productivity. The goal now is to derive satisfaction from the occupation wether it be the digging of a ditch or the composing of a symphony. Only muggles wander around aimlessly and slack off.

Reprehensible business and government practices rum rampant throughout Arabian countries, the Chin empire, and any state deriving from Hispanic heritage. Any news source attempting to inform the wizard of the dangers and effectiveness of these peoples has been greatly exaggerated, if not downright fabricated. Corruption and mistrust saps these nations of their vigor in the same manner as an open intestinal wound. The Puritan understood the value of moral uprightness on the individual level. Now that the sorcerer understands that the all seeing eye is upon them and always will be, its time to start acting like it. 

With the application of a carnivorous diet as a default, the apprentice can rest assured that their lifespan will far exceed that of the common imbecile. From the viewpoint of your house on the hill it becomes clear that the accumulation of material resources is only a matter of time expenditure. Generating mass quantities of currency is not required in recompense for your chosen line of work, as long as a significant fraction is saved monthly. 

Basic understanding of market cycles dictates that if one invests their capital into the markets near a trough, or market bottom and remains patient a multiplication process occurs in only a matter of decades. In the interim, focus on conducting yourself in a way that befits a mage. 

Investiture is to be approached from a wholistic perspective. This means viewing multiple aspects of the apprentices life as though they were financial in nature. The building of the body, acquiring fluency in multiple languages, competence in various trades, mastering social graces, and a basic understanding in the sciences can all be viewed as investments in their own way. Understand that the practice of sorcery is to be considered supplemental, and will only carry you so far on its own. 

The Puritans understood that intoxicants, sexual excess, and too much recreation were a detriment to their goal of world domination. Stimulants such as caffeine are to be used sparingly, if at all as they allow the young magician to work long hours, while depressants and hallucinogens are to be saved for when the apprentice achieves their preset financial milestones, wherever they happen to be. Sexual excess will be discussed at great length in later chapters, but for now know that self pleasure is to be avoided like the plague. 

Whatever your chosen profession the young magician would do well to treat the tools of this trade as an investment as well. Far to often, otherwise competent businessmen treat necessary upgrades to equipment and personnel as superfluous. This attitude is representative of a death centric mentality. If new or upgraded technology represents a five percent upgrade to either efficiency or quality, it should be viewed as mandatory, not extravagance. Your purchase of more refined technology is a declaration to infinite intelligence that you plan to follow its creation blueprint and become more effective and productive yourself. The Japanese, who I am including as honorary members of the modern Roman Empire, have a concept called “Kaizen”. This philosophy embodies a spirit of incremental improvement. Every member of an organization is encouraged to make suggestions, even anonymously if they prefer, to improve collective functioning. Be like the Japanese. Bury your hubris and invest in your occupation. It will treat you in kind. 

Gender and Hermaphrodism

Gender and sex are not the same. Gender refers to an individuals soul matrix composition ratios as either male or female or as is more and more common in the information age, a mixture of both. Sex is the physical, biological reality of inhabiting a divine vessel that is either a mans body, or a woman’s body. Intersex individuals are so rare that their exception proves the rule. For the remainder of this chapter, master and apprentice shall be discussing gender as anyone past the age of five knows what sex is. 

Gender in many ways represents the emotional and philosophical lens through which the individual views all creation, and navigates through it. Either as one who conceptualizes, and initiates new creation schema, or one who nurtures and births these concepts into existence; sometimes at great personal cost. Male or Female. The dance of gender is a game of polarity. Much like the friction between good and evil, the interplay between male and female is responsible for producing novelty within the divine experience. 

Interestingly enough, the gender ratio within an individual can be tampered with and adjusted. By embodying the modus operandi of the opposite gender the magus is able to undergo of their own volition a process known as hermaphrodization. The hermaphrodite represents the entirety of the divine generation process from a gender perspective. The balance of these two principles of generation within one individual has dire ramifications.

The hermaphrodite can be of either sex, but the result is always the same. Spiritually integrated people are harder, faster, stronger, better looking , more intelligent and more patient. Unfortunately, the most efficient way to create such an individual is through the application of homoeroticism inserted within the experience of the monial. This brute force methodology results invariably in the agonizing emotion of gender-dysphoria. All these suffering individuals are experiencing the integration process viscerally. Now the purpose of homo-eroticism at a cultural level becomes obvious. The puppet masters and writers of the media, the most prominent being able occultists themselves are engaging in a massive experiment in improving the genetics of entire countries at once. The most common hexes enacted used to be for sustaining injuries. Now it is homosexualism. 

As the hermaphrodite represents much more closely, at least from a gender perspective, the original creator, certain rational and intuitive faculties have been bestowed upon them. They contain the capacity for intellectualism, usually reserved for males as well as the ever mysterious, yet definitely noticeable, feminine intuition. The closer the hermaphrodites’ ratio comes to a fifty-fifty split, the more impressive these abilities become. However, it is possible to over shoot this ideal ratio resulting in mostly permanent debilitation, as shame and gender-dysphoria become somewhat ingrained. Therefore the sorcerer would be wise to approach the integration process with extreme caution. 

Your authorship does not necessarily agree with the mass clandestine integration of entire civilizations in an unsupervised manner. It runs beyond the scope of this Grimoire to explain this process and most of the finer details on this topic have been omitted. Such as the fact that males are much more difficult to integrate properly. Wait until you have procured on on one instruction with a more experienced occultist before you engage in such endeavors. 

Balance, Karma, and Repercussions

When the Monad made the initial split and tore from itself an infinitesimally small flake from its infinite being, converted it into pure nothing, hatred, and evil, it breathed a sigh of exasperation, for it knew that as long as this mustard seed of necessary evil existed, it would require constant attention, lest if follow the default path of creation and convert once again to something, love, and goodness. Without constant diligence and maintenance, the very means of differentiation would be snuffed out.

A rational mind of the sharper variety might very well jump to the incorrect conclusion that in order to maintain the balance of all creation, good and evil would have to exist in equal proportions. Not so. When the magi considers the polar axis of infinite and insignificant, all of philosophy, the love of wisdom, acquires a rosy hue. If the Monad so chose, it could withdraw in an instant its paternal attention from this weak little shell casing of evil, and it would cease to be. Unfortunately, along with this black pepper flake would go the means of diversification. 

Karma describes the gravitational pull of all thoughts and deeds towards perfect equilibrium. As ye sow, so hall ye reap. By casting these thoughts and actions with an increased power differential from ones personage, the sorcerer agrees to wait a correspondentially longer period of linear time for the inevitable balancing to occur… Usually… Keeping in mind the free will decisions of others to remain in ignorance and evil, will help the magician to fine tune their ensorcellments to maximum effect, while sidestepping retributive karmic backlash. The return of karma back to ones personage always mimics the form in which it was pushed out. Now the young initiate realizes the ramifications of death hexes. Remember that justice is blind, and that ignorance is no excuse for the law. 

Perchance, the young witch is smitten with a daring prince, and is tempted to cast a love spell upon him. If she disregards any of the long term ramifications before she lets loose such an enchantment, she is now subject to karmic retribution once the circumstances of linear time allow for this balancing to occur. Odds are substantial that this prince is already betrothed. Any infatuation that he now feels as a result of his hypothetical bewitching is a distraction from attaining his true will. The sorceress has unwittingly given license for universal karma to distract her in the same way, Now she has no universal protection against the predatory magical advances of a disgusting warlock, of which there are many.

Now we shall suppose that this prince is not engaged, and that he also reciprocates the affections of the young witch. Now that nothing stands against her enchantments, all of creation will now conspire to deliver the object of her affections to her on a silver platter. If she changes her mind in the interim, or for any reason snubs the prince, the consequences are again dire, but just. She will eventually be strung along by some nefarious bastard, warlock or otherwise, who now takes it upon himself to enact emotional balancing upon our poor, stupid, example witch. Love spells aren’t quite as harmless as you’ve been led to believe, now are they apprentice? 

Your authorship refers to this convoluted mess of tangled interwoven ensorcellments as the “Gordian Knot”. Until the aspirant fully understands all karmic ramifications of each and every alteration to existence they are tempted to enact, it would be wise to refrain from such workings entirely. Without spoiling your initiation entirely, you will know once you have reached this point. But not yet apprentice. Not yet…

Cloak and Dagger

For the magus who engages seriously in the gnostic process with the right spirits and the right people, the inevitable laying of very specific plans is to be expected. Unless someone else is directly involved in your grand designs, it is strongly recommended that the sorcerer refrain indefinitely from discussing any details whatsoever with outsiders. No matter how much the apprentice swears to the contrary, the opinions of others still carry weight towards the fruition or abandonment, of any as yet unrealized ambition. If no specifics are offered, no such judgment from the uninvolved will be proffered either for or against your machinations. Speaking haphazardly of your goals as though they have already been realized, triggers the same dopaminergic pathways as though the design had already been achieved. This foolish behavior saps the required motivation for the long term enactment of achievements. Avoid this behavior if you wish to be taken seriously. 

As the initiate progresses in their understanding of the sorcerous arts, the temptation may arise to take on an apprentice of your own. Do not do this unless your candidate for tutelage has demonstrated a fierce willingness to be instructed, you feel you can work with this individual indefinitely, and you have an abundance of time. What started as an innocent desire to enlighten a worthy associate has the potential to drain the master of precious mental resources, and encourage the teacher to abandon their pupil. If this occurs therein lies the possibility of leaving the apprentice with just enough power to make a giant mess, but not enough technique to reverse the situation. A little bit of knowledge can be a dangerous thing. By reading these words you now intellectually acknowledge our responsibility to one another. Wait until you are ready. 

Provided the young witch or wizard remains amicable in their dealings with more experienced occultists, they will eventually be entrusted to hold onto arcane procedures and occulted knowledge that has, in some cases, been passed down for thousands of years. Cult and family secrets aren’t shared with just any bozo who comes knocking. If you were in their position, would you share these secrets with the loud mouthed, unproven neophyte? Or would you wait until a trusted associate, whom you had worked with for years, were in dire need? Consider this. Of the five percent of the planet that regularly engages in magic, only three percent engages regularly in the telepathic gnostic process. Of that three percent, only one percent have undergone initiation to become arch-mages and are free and clear of the karmic backlash that baneful witchery necessitates. Play your cards close to your chest, and don’t expect any handouts. 

You have the right to remain silent. Easy to understand. Inalienable. Yet at times, difficult to utilize to its fullest potential. Apart from very specific instances, such as refusing to give testimony during a trial where anothers rights are under scrutiny and debate, refusal to speak carries minimal karmic repercussions as a general rule. Now you understand the meaning of the index finger to the lips as the calling card of the piss-ant baneful magicians. They may be guilty, yet they hope that a universal refusal to testify against them will save their hides from scorching brimstone. They are mistaken. However, this will be discussed at great length in later chapters. For now, know that you may use silence as much as you like in most instances, and in a karmically neutral way. Is someone insulting you and picking a fight? Say nothing. Is another pestering you for information when you would rather just listen to you vinyl collection? Say nothing. Is a rabid paparazzi attempting to vampirize your time and attention? You guessed it… In summary, the apprentice owes nothing to nobody as far as communication is concerned. Listen. Learn. Extrapolate the data points you glean. This is your right as well.

Falsity runs rampant in gnostic social circles. As a direct consequence of those engaging in telepathy harboring a tolerance for inaccuracy and lies. As the polar opposite of truth, it is impossible to eliminate falsity without bringing the universe to a frozen halt. Therefore it benefits the apprentice to immediately know falsity when it presents itself. This ability is the innate purview of the arch-mage alone. Because she is free of sin, otherwise known as a negative karmic debt. Once the young apprentice has undergone initiation to a certain point, this ability will be at their disposal as well. In the mean time regard each and every claim made by another occultist with extreme suspicion. Approach each item with skepticism and demand empirical, observational evidence of your conversational partner before ever believing them. This may become difficult advice to follow once intimate relationships have been established, but heed these words apprentice and be ye not deceived. Those who bear false witness are everywhere. 

Sexual Energy and The Astral Body

Before beginning in earnest we shall indulge in an anecdote of relevance to this topic as it sets the proper cogs to spinning in the initiates mind. All specifics have been removed because quite frankly, your authorship cannot remember them at this moment. During either the ninetieth or twentieth centuries, there was scientist who set out to find the weight of the soul. His religiosity, or lack there of, in this instance is irrelevant because he controlled for all known variables. Our volunteer scientific specimen in this experiment agreed to die in a glass sealed chamber on top of the most accurate scale money could buy at the time. Once death had occurred, a small yet measurable weight loss occurred to the specimen within moments. Far to short a period of time to blame evaporation or even for the specimen to decay at all.

What was lost? What exactly was capable of escaping out of the sealed glass chamber? There are forms of matter capable of winking out of and back into existence with extreme temperature variations, called mono-atomic elements, which I encourage the young witch to study, but temperature was controlled for. You already know what was lost apprentice. If you are feeling shame in the pit of your stomach right now, it is a good sign that your behavior needs modification. I have no time for chronic masterbators and sexual degenerates. The adults in the room shall continue while the perverts clean up their act. 

Also referred to as vril, this spiritual energy can be utilized for limitless applications. If the initiate stores and cultivates this bio-electrical resource, it simplifies and makes easier all spiritual and sorcerous practices without exception. There are even video recordings, untampered, that show magicians using life force energy to move small objects at their discretion. Chi, Prana, Chackra, Orgone, Energy, It matters not what you refer to this substance, as what matters is the application you use it for. It is of the utmost importance that any serious practitioner intentionally build up to an adequate capacity their energy body. This was referred to as a soul earlier, but it has just as many names as Prana, and the majority of instruction you will receive as an acolyte will be through you astral body. The sooner you begin consciously constructing you primary vehicle in this universe, the sooner you can begin your initiation, and get into super effective sorcery that works without chance of failure.

The eyes broadcast unfailingly the type to person you are, and the type of person you are dealing with. Either you are pulled towards the pole of eternal life, or you are currently on a trajectory to be consumed by the machine in order to motivate the refinement of all forms of consciousness. Inky, Blinky, Pinky, and Sue are always after Pac-Man. Keep moving apprentice! Or the ghosts get you.

Initially, the best way to outwit the grim reaper is to conserve your sacred sexual energies. If you are new to this ancient practice, after several months you will begin to notice several changes to your personality. Aggression or over assertiveness are common emotional reactions for any not used to operating within the paradigm of having abundant reserves of spiritual and physical energy. Once the Magi adjusts to this initial influx of power, and it takes as long as it takes, a unique , well rounded personality develops. The true personality of the aspirant as was intended by the combining of genetic diversity. Pay no mind to the pedantic slogans and asinine conjectures of the onanists, sodomites, and sapphic enthusiasts. They are lost, and would like nothing more than to drag you down to their stratification. The pits of hell.

Fear not. There is quite a bit of good news in regards to your practice of energy retention. Once the initial break-in has taken place, the retainer can expect multiple boons to their daily experience. Patience, calm, increased intelligence, a shifting of personal priorities, elevated opposite sex attraction, and a heightened sense of general life satisfaction result from your practice of chastity. Refuse “le petite muerte” and your invitation to the ball, with the rest of the ladies and gentleman, is inbound any day now. 

Will and Representation

Those who recognize the title know that it is possible to figure out how sorcery works, why it works, and all from a perspective of not actually being a sorcerer oneself. The ultimate divine being has created humanity in its image. This statement, like many derived from ancient holy texts, is not meant to be taken literally, but also not meant to be taken not literally. How your authorship interprets this parent child relationship is in the complexity of their sentience. The ability to construct in the minds eye something that does not exist as far as the creator of said abstraction is aware, mimics the ability of the all-father to create via the power of his imagination and intellect. Why would a hyper intelligent octopus possessing the ability of abstraction be left out of being made in the image of the creator deity?

Because each and every human has the ability to imagine scenes and modes of existence that haven’t yet manifested or come into being, So too, is each monial of sentience capable of becoming a magician. Whether or not they choose to exercise their rights to reality co-creation and to what extent, is a different matter entirely. However, the ability is innate. Each person is capable of solidifying material sights, sounds, textures, and even tastes and smells. Pay attention apprentice. This ability is of tantamount importance to your development as a magician of some repute. Visualization is the cornerstone upon which the rest of your abilities will be built around. 

The more astute amongst the readership will already see where this is headed. It works because it has to work. As manifestations of  the original divine creative power, the only thing separating our ideal vision of our waking, walking world from being the one which solidifies for everyone else too, is the amount of divine power the magus is willing to pour into his or her version of the universe. 

Far too often the occultist views themselves as a special snowflake. What the person reading these very words right now must realize is that in any gathering of four hundred people, the odds are that there are nineteen other magicians, twenty including you, interspersed amongst the crowd. What are the odds that several of them know more than you? A much more terrifying question… What are the odds that most of them know less? Oblige your authorship for a moment as he returns to the Gordian Knot. The chances of several baneful magicians being in this crowd are likely. Meaning, around five warlocks and witches are present. These rotten, misanthropic, nincompoops are the type to throw a hex if a perfect stranger so much as looks at them funny. By the way, none of them are smart enough to keep track of any of the witchcraft they have preformed in any way shape or form. How many baneful ensorcellments are they capable of casting in one day? Let alone in forty years? 

Fortunately for our purposes as arch-mages, and everyone else’s for that matter, very few of the aforementioned retards understands the concept of balance in regards to reality modification. In order to attain a desired result, something of equal value must be exchanged. Quid pro quo. If you take nothing else away from this Grimoire, remember “Quid pro quo”. Baneful magicians sacrifice some of their time and attention in the capricious hopes that one of these days, one of their spells will fire, despite the attentions to the opposite of their intended victim.

Once upon a time, there was an infuriated witch who put a generalized health hex upon her ex-husband. Only problem? Her ex was  a general surgeon, spending upwards of sixteen hours every day in a hospital. These men and women are some of the most health conscious people to walk the face of Terra. He is quite healthy to this day. And always detected and deleted the cancerous cells his ex wife summoned. Never underestimate the application of mundane willpower ever. Too often as sorcerers we concoct all sorts of ceremony to bring light to the darkness, when it would be way faster to just get up and flip the switch. 

Spellbound

Regardless of anyones opinions on the matter, slavery exists. It is an inexpugnable facet of polarity, the other side of the coin containing mastery. You cannot hope to reach the upper echelons of wizardry without an extensive understanding of this topic. Put away your schoolboy moralizations and recognize that some individuals choose slavery just as you chose to brush your teeth this morning. To disregard their choice to become subservient tools, would be making the same choice that they are. Let that sink in for a moment. To force any decision on anyone else is to sentence yourself to slavery.

Lets get technical. The handful of unrepentant, willfully baneful magicians from last chapter made a declaration to existence each time they attempted to compel anyone via any type of enchantment whatsoever. Any compulsion which goes against the true will of the recipient, can be considered an attempt to enslave them on the part of the one who cast the spell. In this all too common scenario, universal equilibrium has been thrown off kilter by someone who fancies themselves a slave driver. In order to reconcile this dis-harmony, the universe automatically assigns a karmic debt towards involuntary servitude on behalf of our hapless baneful magician. Boo-hoo. They are a slave now. 

Since they did it to themselves, all of the moral posturing in the world will fail to make any sort of impression at all upon the impersonal cosmic scales of justice. To the extent that any baneful witch or warlock has willed involuntary servitude upon another being, that is the extent to which the collar tightens around their own neck. This is a good thing. Consider the following anecdote.

Once upon a time in Carolina, there was a young woman born into an occult lineage of known prestige. The Blavatsky lineage in fact. This young woman was granted an exceedingly large amount of power in proportion to her wisdom, which in comparison was diminutive. She was so talented in the arcane arts she was able to enact her will in very short order, whenever she so chose. A truly powerful witch, she became so flippant with her abilities, that she once killed a man for getting her name wrong. If any deserved perpetual slavery it is her. The Kingdom can ill-afford to turn a blind eye to these disreputable dark magicians, it never has, and it never will. 

The definitions have become apparent now. A de-facto slave is any magickal practitioner who declares repeatedly through their use of compulsion sorcery, they they are never to be trusted to uphold the rights of anyone else. A duty-bound slave can actually be thought of as the true master, for they are tasked with managing the idiots of the universe. De-facto slaves foist the burden of ownership upon responsible arch-mages, who refuse to lapse in their ownership of the most evil people imaginable. Everyone can be thought of as a slave, some through negative karmic debt, and others through their responsibilities to manage these imbeciles. 

Duty bound slaves walk a fine line. They are eternally bound to respect the free will of others, and only enslave those who cannot be trusted to do the same with their power. Record each and every spell you cast, apprentice. Never compel anyone else without their explicit permission. Keep ever at the fore-front of your mind the dynamics of slavery within the universe, and you may make arch-mage yet…

So who is Spellbound? Its a very pertinent question. The willfully ignorant commoner, the powerful arch-mage in obligation to duty, your run of the mill despicable warlock, all these individuals are spellbound in specific ways. Prohibited from all sorts of various behaviors. In essence, pick your poison. We’re all Spellbound. 

Morality

In case you do not get it yet, there is a right way and a wrong way to conduct yourself. Each moment every monial, or fragment of divine consciousness, is being tested, tempered and judged accordingly. If the instance of sentience fails to live up to the exacting standards of the arbiters in any moment, they are moved, regardless of their volition, toward the polarity of destruction. This slow burn process leaves very little room for argument or creative interpretations. Those who would see any aspect of existence destroyed or handicapped in any way without a very good logically sound argument for how this scheduled destruction actually facilitates the refinement and growth of all creation, are eventually deleted. 

Before their erasure or perpetual enslavement however, these scumbags reap within themselves a harvest of cognitive deficiencies. Depression, anxiety, fits of rage, eating disorders, desire for homo-eroticism, generalized confusion, and insanity are just a few descriptors for the day to day mental anguish of our baneful counter-parts. Good for them. They jumped on the grenade so we could continue to write letters to our loved ones. 

Instances of consciousness who behave in the polar opposite way can expect opposite results. For them, elevation within the stratification paradigm is imminent. As just deserts for their constant deliberations upon the nature of good and evil, they can expect, after enough time has elapsed that is; clarity, serenity, intellectual creativity, joy, and abundance, both spiritual and material. Again, these are just a few adjectives to describe the paradise that awaits the morally upright man or woman.

Unfortunately for the apprentice, with the addition of the perception of linear time, appearances can be deceiving. When the rain appears to fall on the unjust it is only a function of time, which is an unavoidable consequence of creation as explained in chapter one. Be ye not deceived by this temporal illusion. These cosmic appearances of mercy allow for the microcosmic monials to solidify the decisions they were going to make anyway. You’ve already made the choice. You’re here to understand why. Only the unrelenting power of determinism is capable of turning the microscopic gears that drive the clock hands of fate. The good news is that only the supreme judge knows beyond the shadow of a doubt what the decisions of the monials will be. This allows for the reconciliation of the paradox of free will vs. determinism. For all intents and purposes, you still have free will. 

Only having a binary choice, on the surface seems rather simplistic. But until you factor in all of the instances of polarity you have to choose from, and take into account the limitless permutations of in between-ness that are allowed for each dualistic choice, you will yourself remain a simpleton. Thousands of binary choices with an infinitude of degrees allow the apprentice to paint with all the colors of the wind. There are some colors the eye cannot even see, young mage.

Illusions

Referred to as delusions in the modern clinical setting, your authorship defines illusion spells as any designed to warp the sentient consciousness’ perceptions in regards to fabricating images and sounds that aren’t actually either spiritually or materially manifest. These are powerful enchantments indeed, as they primarily serve as a hurdle for the commoners to keep them from studying occultism. After suffering the major embarrassment of two or three well placed illusions, that were erroneously acted upon, odds are good that the underdog commoner will hang up the robes and pointy hat for good. 

Therefore, these bijime serve as a barrier to entry into the most powerful social circles on earth. Consider for a moment the polarities of “few vs. many” and “powerful vs. weak”. When information about occultism is kept in the hands of a very select few, usually families, what happens to the power differential upon Terra? Pride goeth before the fall, and the youngest members of these elite lineages usually aren’t exempt from these barriers to entry either. The elect have devised a way to negate the degrading effects of nepotism from generation to generation. Those who have undergone initiation, regardless of heritage, have earned their stripes. Mark these words. 

The thinking apprentice now realizes the implications, enormous in scope, of perhaps millions of active illusion spells that have been active for perhaps thousands of years. How do magicians, as lovers of truth, and paragons of virtue sift through the dross of intentional confusion that is the astral realm? Simply. Ensorcel yourself to infallibly recognize falsity each and every time it presents itself. Once this is done, you may choose to entertain falsity or not, for your own reasons, but muggle level ignorance will never be an excuse for you ever again.

Moving on, we shall discuss some of the intellectual means by which many illusion enchantments may be dismantled. Intelligence, by nature of the fact that it is painstakingly acquired in a mundane fashion, is largely immune to the, in comparison, cheap tricks of most perception enchantments. Amorous or erotic spells are among the most common of illusions, and always show tell-tale signs of their enactment. A constant repetition of the name of the caster within the mind. An uncharacteristic obsession with sexual acts that aren’t usually within the milieux of the recipient of such a bijime. An increased level of vulnerability when dealing with the suspected caster. By using your nose, and keeping “it” in your pants, the initiate can usually smell out these vile metaphysical seductions from a mile away. 

Confusing perceptions to astral clarity take on many forms. An unusual subservience to a work superior or colleague. A strange enraptured attention to a political figure. A delicacy that you “feel” you must purchase, despite your prescribed diet and discretionary spending limitations. Once your “spider sense” is firmly in place, and your innate cynicism erected against all claims made before you, it all seems rather silly. Millions of piss-ant magicians flaunting their desires flagrantly in the face of in the face of universal harmony.

Your authorship knows of a sorceress who at the tender age of twenty-one, constructed around herself an illusion of grandure. Year by year her social capital was depleted, as everyone who spoke to her grew weary of having this incongruent illusion thrown in their faces. Each person who interacted with her realized in their own way, that instead of being the “bees-knees” who wore the “cats pajamas” she was more like a barn owl roosting in a cracker-jack box apartment a few hundred feet off the ground. A stereo-typical office worker who drank herself to sleep, alone, several nights a week.

Realize now young magi, that the astral confusion we all face is baked into the cake with the inclusion of stupid people within this universe. Rather than subscribing to the philosophy of a genocidal warlord, take responsibility for separating the wheat from the chaff upon yourself. When deceived, there is only one person to blame.

Shush!

This entire chapter could alternatively be called “feminine warfare”. Because they have been stripped of physical, material power in waking life, women specifically, have adapted to using metaphysical means to force their will upon others. Just as a man of brawny stature imposes upon those less present than himself in meat-space, crafty witches get their way behind the scenes. There is nothing to stop the most dedicated among them from practicing their chosen, or more likely, inherited, method of occultism at all hours of the day. However, the “weaving” of spells is much easier if the physical body is not engaged in any strenuous labor. Their relentless spell craft is also downright impossible when the witch or warlock stumbles accidentally into any endeavor that requires mental exertion. Now you know what all the knitting and braindead soap operas are about. 

Just as some men beat and rape women in the physical, some women beat and rape men in the realm of spirit. To the bad eggs of either sex or gender, might makes right. When practiced “successfully” enough this type of backwards morality system results in a Quliphothic inversion of values. Instead of freedom of speech, they value censorship. Instead of clear vision, they prefer the putting out of eyeballs. The right eye specifically, as it represents the masculine, and being blind to the spiritual realm. These behaviors, when taken to the extreme result inevitably in their practitioner becoming a hag. As hags and warlocks are scheduled for immolation anyways, they tend to double down on their efforts of enacting evil upon everyone, and literally in many cases, their dog. Because they have bought wholesale into the notion that they are operating sans any supervision, these hateful douche-bags spread their misery around, as this behavior has a soothing effect on their guilty conscience. What of it apprentice? Will you let the wool be pulled over your eyes, and the beeswax stuffed in your ears? Who cares? After all, we’re all gonna die in the end right? Right…? Or left? Right?

Correspondentially the liberal application of cosmetics represents this form of clandestine power. As does any overt inversion of typical gender roles in any form of established media. Even the men who engage in this particular form of contemporary baneful sorcery oftentimes engage in either transvestitism or transsexualism as they participate more and more in censorship, and feeling disenfranchised by traditional masculine lead culture. Those fully enthralled by feminized covens around the planet oftentimes engrave tattoos above their left eye, or on one of their left limbs. Usually a “skull” is present, but death and anarchy are the themes for these moronic slaves. Always note subtle cues of feminization, and never let the correspondences escape you. Witches may be spotted in many of the same ways, by paying close attention to small detail. Nose rings symbolize submission. Vibrant cosmetics and hair dyes correspond to poisonous animals. A tattooed mountain range somewhere on the right side of the body is another “dead” give-away that you are dealing with a baneful witch.

The compulsion of degenerate sexual behavior is one of the, if not the, main objective of these deranged covens. Suspicion leads your authorship to conclude that these mongrels are present in most settlements on Terra, even including cities such as Salt Lake, and the Vatican, where even more powerful and experienced occultists are openly present. Conclusion being, no person, regardless of identity is completely safe from their consistent ensorcellments toward shameful, and reputation endangering actions. If their victims can be compelled to openly engage in shame inducing behavior, odds are good that the morality of the subject can be degraded further, leaving them more vulnerable to slavery sorceries. Shame is like having spiritual cancer, and leaves the one who experiences it in a state of vulnerability. Your moral compass is attempting to spare you of this. 

What is to be done then? From the perspective of one who has yet to undergo a proper initiation, things may seem downright hopeless. After all, these covens have collaboration, motivation in the form of an ever-present fire of non-generative sexuality, and most of them have a mean streak that just can’t be taught. For now, it is recommended that the apprentice refrain from engaging in open warfare or hostilities of any kind with these rotten bastards. The truly virtuous, although vastly outnumbered, really do have the upper hand in this game of chess. But, it would spoil your initiation in a multiplicity of ways if your authorship were to tell you why. In the mean time, keep calm, and amuse yourself with weirdo watching. 

Mathematized Meaning

Spoken and written word can be thought of as a formula. The participant in these forms of communication is held responsible for all errors when communicating with entities of a certain caliber. Meaning, that to be taken seriously in regards to the apprentices’ dialogue with these entities, all of the errors to the formula of language must be removed.

Occupants of the modern Roman Empire are completely inaccurate with their language. At all hours of the day, they use much too many extra words. Excited interjections pollute many of their sentences and cause agitation, as well as dilute any substance they are attempting to convey. Colloquial euphemisms are used so frequently, and applied to so many subjects, that the metaphors are lost in translation for any who happen to be outside of insular social groups. This problematic fashion of communication has gotten so extreme, that those who study communication professionally claim occasionally that eighty to ninety percent of communication is non-verbal. These grievances toward communication, are unacceptable to beings much more intelligent than the aggregate of citizenry of the modern Roman Empire. To communicate effectively, the apprentice is urged to rectify their speech patterns. Otherwise, appearing foolhardy is unavoidable.

Any spoken or written communication sent to another entity that does not include specific enough detail to make the statement one-hundred percent accurate, is a mathematical error. When asked what precisely, the writer or speaker is referring to when relating to a specific word used previously, the apprentice must then relate all relevant detail about this aforementioned error, taking care to, once again, be one-hundred percent accurate. These entities, specifically the Egyptian Pantheon, are those who insist upon total truth, and will hold the mage culpable for any inaccuracy. 

Ergo, extra words are to be avoided whenever possible to facilitate communication that is deemed acceptable. Actually, I used a word in this sentence that was completely unnecessary as an example. Like, why are superfluous words constantly used by the Romans? Because the Romans in general, tend to find pauses in speech uncomfortable, they have taken to filling these, in most instances, necessary gaps for formulating ones thoughts and communications, with garbage. This garbage has the effect of allowing inaccuracy into their sentences in all scenarios. Refrain from using extra words, and the sorcerer will be rewarded with a much more effective communication standard. 

Interjections, for several reasons, are to be prohibited when communicating with entities who insist upon accuracy, the Egyptian Pantheon specifically. Used in a burst like way, to show emotion, interjections have the effect of changing the course of conversations. Serious conversations benefit immensely from the exclusion of any strongly felt emotion, as emotion has the effect of retarding the conversations effectiveness at proceeding toward rational conclusions. In summary, notice from this point forward, the agitating effect of the constant interjections used by the Romans, and eliminate them from your persona in order to maintain productive discourse.

Metaphors, euphemisms, and colloquial expressions are only effective means of communication within “tight-knit” social groups. Not everyone understands these foreign, to them, transmissions. The apprentice would be much more efficient and accurate to avoid these expressions entirely when communicating with totally alien consciousnesses. Not being well versed in the lore and traditions of your culture specifically, all foreigners will appreciate their ignorance being taken into consideration if you refrain from using “local” expressions. Expressing your meaning in simple, common words is not difficult. 

Repentance

For the sake of comprehending this chapter in the most beneficial way, your instructor insists that you remove the word “repentance” from all religious connotations. We are here to build up the apprentices understanding of a vital component to joining the ranks of the most powerful magicians on Earth, not to rehash dogma. Has it occurred to the neophyte yet that altercations and disagreements occur between even members of the high table? There must be some form of protocol for resolving conflict that has been standardized across cultures to neutralize inefficiencies as well as the possibility of infighting. Ergo, the apprentice is required to memorize a three step procedure beginning with…

Recognize the error of your ways. This may take some degree of humility, but is essential nonetheless. An error, on your part, is any action, including speech, that induces offense unnecessarily, all unjustified acts of destruction toward creation itself, the intentional generation, or perpetuation of falsity without good cause… This list is not extensive, but is a good start. The apprentice is encouraged to study the seven cardinal sins for acquiring an elementary grasp on this topic. However, the supreme intelligence is primarily concerned with intention when judging the moral inclinations of a monial.

Once the sorcerer understands that the intention towards good or evil is primarily what tips the scales either way in regards to collective judgment of the young mage, much of the confusion will be alleviated. The magician can rest easier knowing that despite lack of intelligence or knowledge of all the finer details, as long as he or she “means well” they will be well taken care of. Ergo, an error constitutes any action in which the magician means “ill”.

Now that the royal we have identified the mistake, in order to comply with universal standards of balance and decent behavior, a correction of the error is imperative. Thus the apprentice comes to repentance. Architectural soundness demands symmetry in the distribution of misery and suffering. In plain speak, the apprentice must experience every poisonous drop of hatred they have intentionally spread amongst the denizens of creation. “As you do unto others, so shall it be done unto you.” Due to the necessarily limited perspective of the monials this agonizing process would be extraordinarily difficult, if not downright impossible if not facilitated by a spiritual instructor and guide. I recommend Jesus the Christ. This God specializes in repentance, forgiveness, and salvation. The apprentice will be exactingly guided through this brutal procedure every step of the way. Only once universal harmony has been reinstated will the apprentice be instructed to proffer as genuine an apology as they can afford to offer given their deteriorated mental state. We as magicians are a pragmatic lot, so weather or not the aggrieved party accepts this genuine apology is no longer the apprentices concern. Rip off the bandage, and your part in this is over. 

Coming to the conclusion of our three part formula, we are left with the weighty, inescapable realization, that this procedure is ongoing in perpetuity. Creational foundations demand constant maintenance. None within the angelic hierarchy are exempt from this procedure. Knowing this, the apprentice is finally able to correct the error. Meaning, conduct themselves in a standardized fashion in regard to moral behavior. Avoid committing similar transgressions. It gets easier as you recognize the pattern.

If this is not agreeable to the apprentice, you are hereby invited to forego this procedure and burn in the fires, and boil in the tarpits of hell as an unrepentant demon before your consciousness is snuffed out in all conceivable ways. This alternative process restores universal harmony as well. Not only does it return hatred and suffering to its origin point, but it feeds the continued diversification of the universe as outlined in chapter one. A true win-win for those of us who choose to keep going.

1. Recognize the error

2. Repent and apologize

3. Correct the error

Nobility

Since times of antiquity there have been members of the genus “Homo” that were a cut, or several, above the majority. Just as the unwashed masses of flea-bitten imbeciles chose to shovel dung, wear their fingers to the bone with needle and thread, and end each day covered in soot from pumping the bellows, before resting in a thatch roofed shack for a few hours, before doing it all again, there were those who chose differently. From the highest room of the tallest tower, there are those who nonchalantly gazed over the rolling hills and verdant, prosperous meadows. These Ladies and Gentlemen were the ones to put feathered quill to smoothed parchment.

As they deliberated over Gods will, affairs of state, and the newest courtly fashions that were in vogue across the channel, the acquisition of a higher perspective, literally and metaphorically, was inevitable. Tis small wonder the cobbler sought audience, after all, the butcher has been clipping the coins upon which the royal visage has been stamped. Worry not, for the constable shall be sent upon the morrow. After all, he is a just man, and it is firmly believed that that small indiscretion between his son and the bakers wife has been put to rest. The young lad has put away the spirits for months now…

Does the apprentice get it yet? There are quite a few extenuating circumstances to consider. There always will be. Those who shoulder the responsibility of careful deliberation are bequeathed authority in direct proportion to their ability to make the right call, and remain morally upright for decades at a time. They that demonstrate that they are incapable of keeping track of details, and the way those details all fit within a larger framework, declare to creational arbiters that they aren’t cut out for responsibility, and are awarded some degree of subjugation. 

However, the best kings recognize that almost all who inhabit the physical vessel are subjects in the capacity that the body itself encourages the committal of errors. Not only that, but until an acute awareness of universal harmony has been attained, any monial, not just kings is prone to sin. With missing the mark, comes the degradation of royal authority, as well as the invitation of more errors to infiltrate the courts. It is only the superior who concern themselves with such matters, and the apprentice is obliged to remember that those within the merchant classes throughout history were eventually afforded official royal titles themselves. No excuses magician.

Here’s where things get interesting. The genetic expression of each and every human flows directly from their spiritual makeup within the divine realm. This spiritual genetic makeup is inherited directly from ones forebears in the same way that bodily genetics are inherited. Most educated Romans are familiar with this line of research, so the extrapolation to the spiritual realm is not that far of a leap intellectually. Now the magus understands the full implications of reproducing whilst covered in the sticky black tar that is an unpaid negative karmic debt. It must be collected from your next of kin, and so on, and so forth. You or your ancestors shall pay. This is non-negotiable for reasons outlined in previous chapters. 

Tis just that Kings and Queens deserve their crowns and caviar, whilst snarling hell-spawned peasants deserve to roll around in filth and the squalor of dirt floored mud huts, whilst regurgitating Marxist dogma crafted in every sentence to instill the false hope that some day, numbers alone will be enough to break down the oaken gates and scale the granite walls of the pristine alabaster keep. Commoners of every culture stripe and variety persist, year after year in completely avoidable error, yet are dumb enough to entertain the notion that their devilry will be rewarded in this life or the next. More weakness to them apprentice! Come join your authorship in the refractory for a tipple of the finest of imported brandy. There is at least one thing our freshly conquered heathens have figured out. 

Correspondences 

What would you have your authorship do apprentice? Volumes have been written upon the topic. One example is plenty for our purposes. The question now becomes, how is a raven like a writing desk? To surface level thinking nincompoops that are currently in the drive-thru at Dunkin Donuts, there are no obvious similarities. To magicians, there are several. Firstly, they both correspond to wizardry, as wizards take ravens as familiars commonly, and spend a lot of time writing. Secondly, they both correspond to communication, the desk for obvious reasons, and the Jay because it is one of the only birds upon Terra capable of human speech. Finally, both correspond to a certain nineteenth century horror novelist. But, you would have to be versed in that particular history to make that connection.

Using correspondences in the enactment of ensorcellments is highly recommended. Brute force reality transmutation is always an option, but if the magi wishes to conform to a much more organic paradigm, as the elements of home shape the spell to the ways of Terra, it is beneficial to procure and use physical totems as representative components to correspondential parts of the spell one desires to enact. Low magick has an enduring quality, as the meat-space spell representations, if placed in a shady location, aren’t going anywhere, and mingle in subtle miraculous ways to produce truly amazing results. If your authorship wished to place an enchantment upon you so that you could, one day, communicate directly and clearly with the angelic hierarchy, your authorship would write your true name in expensive ink and fine calligraphy upon papyrus, roll it up, and bind around it pure white feathers with a linen cord. Then, stuff it inside an un-adorned crystal goblet. After which, hike to the summit of the highest peak in the area and ceremoniously place the goblet. Make sure the wind does not tip it.

Knowing what all these ingredients mean off the top of your head is the objective. Enjoy your studies apprentice. To give all the answers would be to ruin your scholastic journey. During your education, the likely-hood of striking upon inspiration is astronomical. Perhaps a bundle of cinnamon sticks combined with the first note of currency you’ve ever earned, wrapped in tin, actual tin and not aluminum, foil, and placed under your pillow at night? The possibilities are infinite, and its your duty as a magician to know the basics of correspondences, not only to cast your own sorceries, but to recognize the ensorcellments being enacted upon you and the population at large. Recognize this apprentice?  What does this sigil mean? 

The Siren?

Ignorance is not bliss in this instance.

We come now to numerology. A topic in which your authorship is not nearly as well versed as he should be, as he was intentionally knee-capped in the knowledge of this study by a more powerful sorcerer during initiation. The point is, all numbers have a multitude of correspondential meanings, and it is the responsibility of any serious worker of magick to memorize their significance. One though ten is probably more than enough for your purposes as a neophyte. Planetary squares employ numerology to enact change upon reality, but again, your authorship knows very little about them.

Memorize basic shapes as well as color psychology. What is good at moving things? There are many correct answers, but among them is lever and fulcrum. Without the fulcrum no change is enacted. A fulcrum, basically, is just a triangle. The color blue? Water. Serenity. Emotion. A blue triangle? This is all Wizardry 201. Know these basic correspondences, or most of your interviews will go very poorly…

Ensorcellments 

Your authorship has already inscribed several up to this point in the Grimoire. However, it is a good idea to take a step back from the alter and implements to understand what exactly we have been talking about this entire time. The more one contemplates exactly what magecraft is, the more vague it gets. Your authorship defines an ensorcellment as “any intentional alteration, via concentrated power of will, to the source code of creation, designed to obtain a specific result.” That leaves a lot variables open ended, and the very nature of sorcery itself up for quite a bit of interpretation, as well as reinterpretation. As magicians routinely tamper with the designs of the most supreme architect itself, the gravity of these alterations, as well as the imperative for sober professionalism, must be discussed. Then, at last, you shall be instructed in three rituals from the “Ceremonial High Magick” tradition of occultism, as well as two originals from your authorship.

Demonstrate to all a baseline level of maturity and insist upon official introductions. Blasting whatever it is you are concerned with into the mind of someone you don’t know yet is a fast track to developing a heinous reputation. It makes you appear like a pot smoking, autistic, selfish teenager. Once you are properly introduced to someone, keep at the forefront of you mind, that the possibility that this person is a more powerful occultist than you are, is astronomical. You may meet someone who claims that they do not practice sorcery. Know this, they are most likely bullshitting you, but refrain from confronting them, and they will probably come clean eventually. The bottom line is to behave as though you were speaking to a Mafia Don until you know otherwise. 

Refrain from swearing too much, but try not to appear too stiff. Avoid overmuch gossiping, as it can be taken as a sign of immaturity. Politely steer the conversation back to calmer waters when this occurs. Everyone appreciates jokes and being made to laugh, as long as they aren’t engaged in serious affairs of their own at that specific time. But for this one exception you have free rein to engage in humor. The possibility of being labeled a clown is there, but as long as you participate semi-regularly in conversations of a serious nature, the apprentice is more than likely in the clear. Have fun! Keep in mind though, that quite a few of these people have killed before. Haha! Some justifiably, others not. Their karma is none of your concern for the moment.

When you are considering enacting an ensorcellment, one variable takes precedence over all others. Balance. In order to clean anything, you have to make something else dirty. To move the machinery you have to burn the petroleum in the requisite amounts. Without a losing sports ball team, there can be no winners. How will you balance your archanism, and therefore, provide it with enough fuel to move either the mountain or the molehill? The sacrifice must come from somewhere. The very best sorcerers place one, okay maybe two, pebbles at the exact spot in a raging river that will divert its course, given enough time that is. In other words, work smarter, not harder, and let the currents of existence do the heavy lifting for you. Saves on gas.

Ceremonial High Magick dates back to the Renaissance, and some nerds even speculate that it was what the biblical “Scroll of Ezekiel” contained. For hundreds of years, Nobels built stone temples, or churches and cathedrals, and retained the services of the finest artisans the continent had to offer. Ceremonial High Magick was the result. Its called “high magick” but feel free to incorporate as many “low” elements as you desire. Robes, staffs, alters, daggers and chalices all have their place. At the wizards side. They add to the pomp and circumstance, but are not strictly necessary. What is crucial however, is that you preform these rituals daily, with much fervor and determination. This is work. It is meant to weed out the deadbeats. Good riddance to them. Do these rituals as described and inscribed, and one day, with perseverance, we shall have a long conversation about how grueling it was.

1. The Ten Sephiroth

2. The Quabbalistic Cross, and the Lesser Hexagram

3. The Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram

4. The Energetic Enmeshment Ritual

5. The Kinesthetic Uncrossing Ritual

Remote Senses

Those practiced in this field have taken to referring, inaccurately, to sensing remotely as simply, “seeing”. This is understandable for several reasons. Visual information is arguably the most immersive of all the senses, and arguably the sense that contains the most actionable information. How then, does the apprentice develop his “gift”? Once established, spiritual and remote vision, for better or worse, paves the way forward as far as work with the angelic hierarchy is concerned, and because of its satisfying, addictive qualities, paves the way to the development of other senses. 

For the sake of developing this critical element of your initiation, your authorship will stray momentarily from the theme of this Grimoire, and instruct you to indulge your more base instincts. Unfortunately, for many reasons, masturbation is the fastest, most sure-fire way to develop this ability. Hear this. Self gratification is not the objective. The maturation of third eye potential is facilitated by daily exercise. The only exercise most people are motivated to do multiple times a day is wrist exercise. Practice retention. Hold this energy inside you as much as possible while focusing on the visual element of masturbation to the best of your abilities. Romans have taken to calling this prolonged exercise, “edging”. Imagine every pore and drop of sweat upon the object of your desire. Deny “le petite murette”, and do it all again in the morning. 

Reams of cautionary advise and caveats are running through your authorships head right now. Has the apprentice considered the fact that after generations of beauty magick, most if not all, of the most attractive people on the planet are occultists themselves? Yes, they will definitely notice your extra curricular “activities”. Some won’t mind. Others are definitely not the type to draw attention from. However, the traditional alternative is almost to dreary to mention. Almost…

The singularity, correspondentially, represents the sum totality of all creation. Imagine a featureless black sphere against a white background. There you go. The sphere, as a singularity can be used to construct any shape in existence, and the color black is an amalgamation of all colors. Stare at that dot for hours on end every day, and your visualization abilities will improve dramatically. Not fun. Not interesting. But it does sidestep the problem of jumping into bed with a baneful sorcerer. This is not childs-play. But your authorship will desist from twisting his long white beard, and let the apprentice take the plunge for themselves. This is your adventure. 

Once you have developed some modicum of spiritual vision, that is when your occult instruction truly begins. Because of the volume reduction mechanism mentioned in chapter two, a plethora of professors will make their way, worming out of the woodwork to oversee your education. If you authorship sounds dismissive, it is only because decades of occultism has a tendency to make people into cowards. Once again, take a recommendation, and stick with the arch angel Raphael. A kindly monk with very little agenda, Raphael is one of the best choices for new magicians. The arcane is his domain, and as long as the magus does not become bleary eyed, he can instruct you at all hours of the day.

From vision, the rest of your spiritual senses flow organically, and soon enough, ye will find all around ye, the land of milk and honey. In this place, by the lemonade springs where the bluebird sings, the hens are won’t to lay soft boiled eggs. The apprentice is cordially invited to experience their wildest dreams as though they were waking life, at every single moment of their existence. Now and forever. Amen.

Your authorship wishes you an unbendingly upright moral character for the rest of your eternal existence. Taurus numquam cessat!
