If you’re new here, seek and you will find…and subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!People get lost or confused in trying to tackle the topic of Manifestation because it’s chock full of a lot of buzzwords and pop psychology. Rationalization, and no real look at the process. Is this your experience of manifesting?

I have experienced a spiritual state. A variety of issues sort of gave me no choice. I used to suffer seizures, irregular theta waves. Those are what make you “unconscious” or at rest, but it wasn’t the sleep cycle. I wasn’t asleep, I was sort of scared. Not even aware of my body. Experienced a shift in [...]

Now here is something interesting. Some people might think of this total awareness and ask what about direction? What about purpose? Lots of people stumble over things like the law of attraction because in the popular material something is missing. Can’t be helped, it is the nature of the media. But tell me, can anyone [...]

The subject is passion including the much reviled “passions”. They usually speak of them in right hand and left hand paths. One school of thought is that they are only stumbling blocks preventing peace. The teachings of the right hand path are very popular, and you can get material written on it at any book store [...]

Thinking gets you where you are and often gets you stuck and keeps you there. Do your passions arise from thinking?
Can you be angry and out of control and be aware that you are angry and out of control? If you are truly aware, then are you out of control? We are alive first, thinking [...]

Some would embrace their dreams and deny their nightmares, and say that they know what it is to dream. They will indulge in pleasure and shun pain, and say they know what it is to feel. But when confronted with the reflection of what they seek, its mirror image, they ask “why do I experience [...]

What exactly is meditation? There are many definitions. Meditation isn’t an action. That is the tricky thing. Meditation is a settling. A disengagement from action. The techniques are for stilling the mind. We seek to meditate not so much to find a new level of awareness. It isn’t a special state. It’s a primal state. [...]

Divination is not foolishness. It’s just encoded intuitions about life. You get from divination the wisdom you bring to it. It is not a pointless exercise because the gnosis is there. When the student is ready the master appears.
When you have the ears to hear and the eyes to see then divination works. When you [...]

If people barely are able to control their feelings , their thoughts and their actions, how can we hope to achieve a magickal act? Your emotions are linked to external energies. When you recognize the connection then you see that you are acted upon and can act in kind. Astrology is based on observations of [...]

Using the energies is sort of like being in a gently flowing river. Most people are blown about by the winds or washed away with the waters, but you can see that the winds and the waters, the elements and the spirits, are not separate from you. Often when the energies seem to rebel, when [...]

We have become very lazy expecting everything to be explained and researched for us. Science claims to have avoided metaphysical speculation and this is one of the major lies of science. It isn’t malicious, but it also isn’t true. They have put forth an irresponsible view that we can ignore the why and focus only [...]

What is the form of thought? Now that is interesting. Form is coherent or “encoded” memory. Energy I mean, and memory. The energy of any given object is perceptible to us. The memory and the energy of the object are not separate, but thought seems more nebulous than sense data, less clear. It’s actually not.
It’s [...]

The topic is sense of place and I don’t mean societal role. More of how where you are is a part of who you are, or rather who you see yourself to be. A lot of what you think as true of you applies also to what you think is true of where you live, [...]

Is illusion without value? Or is all value illusion? And ultimately does this question even matter? Maybe it’s a huge illusion? What matters is you and how you see an illusion. You create the questions on what is illusion and what isn’t. This goes into a personal, individual level and brings you back out again. [...]

We remember dreams with the ‘primary’ psychic method. So this is a way to know what is primary for you. It is often why we complain we can’t remember dreams. We have heard dreams described as vivid images, so it makes everyone think that is what they should be able to recall or relate, and [...]
