Perhaps to take Glamour work back into human experience… We have all heard the term feminine charms, yes? Women these days often resent the term feminine charms, feminine wiles. It implies they are being deceptive, but in fact the opposite is true. The supposed wisdom is in fact the lie. Mostly women don’t like the old ideas about their charms, because they are related to what they now see as weaknesses, frailties. These are not weaknesses. They are strengths, realities, and vital to the survival of the species allowing the only measure of emotional health our children even have, and really… Seek More

How do we perceive illusion? Unwelcome. False. Not real. Yes. It’s typically seen as unwelcome, and judged as not real. But all of your problems are illusion, does that make them go away? No. Sound, light, sensation, vibration, resonance. All of your experience is the way something seems to be. It’s reality is an energy our bodies and natures translate in the way we judge to be illusion. You create your experience. Indeed, and we create it in dialogue. But instead of persuading, we are persuaded. Instead of speaking, we are spoken at. We are not spoken to, because we cannot be… Seek More

When it comes down to deciding between cookies or no cookies, that choice is a charm. It may seem a silly and meaningless choice, but they all echo. No cookie can become no kiss. No kiss can become no love. No love can become no hope. No hope can become no life. Cumulative choice. Yes. Glamour is cumulative choice, but even just a spark of it gets things rolling. A simple grain of sand builds a pearl. The beating of a moths wings adds strength to a tsunami, but we don’t need to sway the whole world, just our world.… Seek More

Pathworking is a wide spread but very esoteric practice. Pathworking goes by many names, but the principle is universally the same even if the practices differ. You may know more about them from your own studies or practice. Native American vision working is pathworking. Some contemplative meditation techniques are pathworking, and well… You can tap into the process without any ritual or formal practice at all. Dream walking? Yes. That can be pathworking. The meaning behind pathworking comes from a simple observation. When people are in altered states of consciousness, especially in deep trance, they tend not to see just… Seek More

The pathworking traditions each have a set of teachings. They all serve a similar purpose to help you connect with deeper things while you are in your normal daily state of mind. This is why they seem like a mix of cosmology and mythology. In Tibetan Buddhism, they have a huge collection of Buddha’s each with different attributes. In Buddhism, meditation is perhaps one of their core practices, but here we add a little science. There have been many theories in psychology that have been proven to be utter bunk, but psychoanalysis has been proven to have some value. The… Seek More

In pathworking, between the first two points it often still seems like you are just making things up. Go from shallow imagination to deeper more immersive imagination and many people stop there. They have their little head trip and don’t go any further, but why do that? Still curious friends? It’s safer that way? Yes, because you will intuit that the energy is going to get stronger, the forces more real. Beyond that, well, like the old maps, here there be monsters. Yes, and in the land of monsters is also magick, and the gods, and the source of life… Seek More

Have you all heard of the veil? Everyone has many selves, because there are many veils. In the cabalistic system, there are ten. Can you see yourself in a mirror if you are standing far away from it? Farther away then that, you could not, but we are never very far from the veil so you always sense it a little bit. Well, there is a reason Lewis Carroll titles his book “Through the Looking Glass” because you go through the veil. After the second point (the gatekeeper) when you have the intention to cross, you will see a place… Seek More

I won’t go into the whole map for pathworking. We are following what they call in Kabbalah the middle pillar. The super highway of that realm. It has width as well as depth. At the next level past the realm of intuition, we reach the hall of wisdom. It’s a realm of memory, also called the akashic record. You get there when you move past insight to understanding. The memory of everything? Yes, and it takes many forms. Some see it as a library. Some as a very deep networking cave. Some as a vast open field of flowers. These… Seek More

Beyond the place of wisdom is the place of communion, the community. It’s seen as a vast city or a verdant tribal hunting ground. A camp where one can speak with the elders. This is the realm of the persistent spirit, not of souls, but of the creative work. That’s not the last place. It all sounds like any video game or epic move plot, making a journey to a communal place. Does it make it sound unreal? Perhaps it’s where we get the ideas from? Not at all, it’s just how I relate to it. It seems to me like… Seek More

There is a place beyond even the ancients. The place of first creation, first home, deep home. It has a few names, but it is often mentioned in every creation myth, and it’s empty. It is also called the throne of God, the light over the waters, the primal egg, but yes, it is empty. The egg already hatched? Good question. Egg is still hatching. It is always forever hatching. People don’t go to this empty place because it is literally full of everything. Infinity. It is empty because it is all things. The throne is empty because sitting on… Seek More
