Either Sacred or Profane

How long can you keep your eyes fixed to your ideals? How rigidly can you hold to your beliefs? Until life gets a little rough. I don’t know. My beliefs are changing all the time. It’s difficult. Often, beliefs are formulated because there is something we feel we should avoid or abstain from. We define…

Congealed Blood

The sacred is the lifeblood of the world. When people of any culture praise whatever vision of divinity they revere, they praise that divinity for the gifts of life itself. “This is my blood… Drink it” would have been enormously offensive to the 1st century Jews because only Jehovah gets to drink blood. Excellent point.…

Finding Your Way on the Path

Now where you personally fall between the extremes of the profane and the sacred can only really be discovered through self-reflection. Any extreme will do the same thing to you as it would to anyone else. It’s void for anyone in any direction if taken too far, but if you visualize the sacred and profane…

Wisdom of Profanity

Some will be profane of something they hold sacred, won’t they? The model is in order. Perhaps a description of the one wise in profanity. Those who have found the wisdom in profanity are the barriers of the dead. This is why so many cultures have viewed those who do that literally as innately profane.…

Where is your Heart?

I will share my own orientation if that is desired? I centre in the profane, personally. Of my nature, I see the world as a decaying thing, hopes fail and dreams die. Ideals are profaned and promises broken. All reality seems an encompassing lie, but, that is my good foot. I am aware that I have the…

Find A Side

Perhaps an animal metaphor would serve to help explain the sacred and profane. Which do you feel more, the vulture or the bunny? I feel like the mother rabbit. Ah, then you favour the sacred, if only lightly. Anyone else want to answer? Vulture or rabbit? Rabbit. Sacred. Vulture. I think this is why I don’t…

Caller of Spirits

Today, we are talking about warlocks. I am using the word warlock because any concept needs a name, and this one has been used for this purpose even if people debate its general origin or full meaning. In the history of human mystical, spiritual, or magickal traditions (it can be hard to draw any substantial…

Modern Warlock

Warlocks have existed in every culture and, at different times, had some means of support from the cultures they lived on the fringes of. In fact, the stories of the supposed witches Sabbath as related by the catholic church, about the supposed evidence of their contact with Satan, was always just a mysterious man in…

Warlock Magick

What kind of magic do warlocks prefer, or does it vary? They prefer what could be considered a variation of shamanism. They develop new fetishes rather than keeping the tribal relics, picking up items from their visions rather than from the code of symbolism kept by their people, and gravitating in what might seem an…

Families of Experience

Are you a warlock? As for the question about myself, recent research is showing a link between autism, which I have been diagnosed with, and schizophrenia. They appear to be opposite sides of a related process in the mind. The commonly understood schizophrenic has a very outward oriented behaviour pattern. They read heavily into social…

Learn the Lessons of Confronting Death

The purpose, and the surviving power of the death defiance practice and its respective rituals, comes from an unspoken understanding. A modern example would perhaps be the psychedelic counter culture. Neuroscience is making some really meaningful discoveries, and extreme physical experience can trigger in us the same sort of responses that psychedelic trips can, with…

Touched with Fear

To risk talking about myself, yet again. People have often marvelled at my tolerance of pain. Despite the neurological abnormalities, I have another reason why I tolerate physical pain so well. Pain confronted directly, experienced vividly, without recourse to emotion or other filters, is just sensation. My own condition presents every sensory stimuli with an intensity and…
