Category: Dark Metaphysics

There are very few frank and well reasoned discussions of the dark side of metaphysics. So I thought a class focused on the darker side of metaphysics might serve a valuable role.


What I classify as dark actually falls into what might be called the “shadowed” real of the already occult. This series on Dark Metaphysics is not for indulging anyone’s morbidity. Nor will I advocate the egotistical behaviour associated with many posers to the dark side. It may mirror for you your own path, and thus teach you more about your own way, and you may discover that it is your personal way.


What do you want to know about the dark side?


“The laws and descriptions which make up the literature of occultism can never be a substitute for experience. They indicate directions in which experiment may be made, and in many cases their validity may be known quite promptly to those who will pursue their indications with resolution and energy. They are not intended as a field for … speculation.” Hugh Shearman, An Approach to the Occult

  • Act Like An Ender

    Act Like An Ender

    Enough of the philosophy, shall we return to practical application of necromancy? Reality, left to its own devices, uses both what we consider life affirmative and creative or positive energies to create people, places, things and events, and death energy to improve the clarity and fidelity of the event. To promote integrity of each event so…

    Exchange

    I’ve noticed that whenever I need to get something done, I always feel I need to clean up my desk and then end up not getting the other thing done. Does that have anything to do with Dead Spots and Necromancy? It does indeed. We’ll explore your example. When you go about any task, realize…

  • Shadow Consequence

    Shadow Consequence

    I reflected on whether or not reading or listening to the news was worth the time it took. Now I scan headlines and life hasn’t ended. You should also really look at the destruction they bring, because there is no act that is not also a destructive act. Make cookies you destroy pancakes, because you…

  • Absolute Reality

    Absolute Reality

    Today we are talking about daemons. The spelling distinction is necessary as I am not referring to the bugaboos people are obsessed with. Grotesque caricatures of humanity those are, but not without some links to the daemonic. The word demon is a distortion of the Latin word daemon which was an order / level of…

  • Sense Of Spectrum

    Sense Of Spectrum

    Just outside of the planets life aura, there is a belt of consciousness that permeates the local hyperspace nexus. The planets aura bends a dimension of pure consciousness energy. There are entities that exist in this space in relationship to earth as well. They often manifest as beings descending from the sky. They were often…

  • Daemonic Phase Of Reality

    Daemonic Phase Of Reality

    To relate the daemons existence, I will have to resort to metaphor as their existence and their consciousness don’t take structures that clearly translate to our own. They are aware of our place in time and other sectors of time and space that are connected to our world. For them, it’s a big web of…

  • Cosmic Politics

    Cosmic Politics

    Now onto perhaps one of this worlds first political debauches. Humans call it the Manichean heresy. The being known as the serpent (again he has countless names, patron of the human genetic helix among other things), and the being known as the logos or author. They and their supportive parties had a falling out. Human…

  • Daemonic Contact

    Daemonic Contact

    Mostly people interact with daemons on the psychic level as they broadcast much the same as we do. We share the psychic airwaves and is why we have ideas like “inner demons.” The daemons could just as easily say they have inner humans, but their influence on the psychic field is more stable than the human…

  • Devas And Daemons

    Devas And Daemons

    Humans disagree on which parties activities are more upsetting, the devas or the daemons. Aesir or Vanir. These are the same two parties but two different cultures. Even the Titans versus the Gods in Greek myth. Same two parties, but the Norse is perhaps the easiest model to use. The Aesir were the inspiring divinities.…

  • Dealing With Daemons

    Dealing With Daemons

    In dealing with daemons, most people will never have to. As far as advice goes, don’t worry about daemons. If on the off chance you do happen to get in trouble with one, handle it much like you would with a neighbour you accidentally angered. Or if you really just can’t handle it, then go…

  • Way Of Blood

    Way Of Blood

    The topic of blood magic is pretty broad, so I thought it might help focus if we start with questions first. Ok, just a little side note. I’m sometimes not comfortable with blood. Relevant side note, and I will go into that. You might not find it as totally offensive as it might seem at…

  • Essence Of Life

    Essence Of Life

    The interaction with blood does not require blood shed though in the past that was involved, and people were much more casual about a great many things. I think the magic works better with flowing blood. You want the energy from that. And the blood flows best still in the vein. The original reason for shedding…

  • Blood Ritual

    Blood Ritual

    It is pretty gross that they want me to drink Jesus’ blood. The ritual drinking of Jesus’ blood was considered to allow in the sharing of Jesus spirit and thus by extension the holy spirit. The idea behind it was considered to be a way of inviting a form of sacred possession, and ritual cannibalism and…

  • Plague And Blood

    Plague And Blood

    What is plague magick? Plague magick and blood magick are mirror opposites. Where blood magick gives life, plague magick blights or dwarfs it. Plague is its own force and is as omnipresent as blood. Hell, even in science we don’t need even the obvious blood plagues, the bacterial and viral. There are even things called…

  • Blood Drinkers

    Blood Drinkers

    Shall we go into the blood suckers? They are not of the blood, but they are of the earth, of the dark earth. The dark earth and the earth we know are part of each other, and each manifests a mirror of the other. Both scientifically and metaphysically just as there is a water cycle,…

  • Returners

    Returners

    A vampire is like a spirit who has possessed their own body? Exactly. This is perhaps an explanation of psychic vampires. They often have had near death experiences (NDE), and in general are able to feed more easily when you are in a state where your blood is pumping hard. This is why they often…

  • Trial By Ordeal

    Trial By Ordeal

    Shall we discuss combat magic which is blood magic? Trial by ordeal, ritual combat, even war time spirituality. Ritual combat / trial by ordeal was based on the principle of divine wisdom in the blood. That the act of struggling for life and preservation of life would stir the genuine inner spirit, and thus you…

  • Reactions To Blood

    Reactions To Blood

    We have three possible reactions to blood, and all blood ritual is an expression and mastery of one of these three spiritual forces. The three instincts that we have when we see red, when we see blood, are: Lust, the desire to mate. Fear, the desire to flee or protect. Hunger, the desire to kill…
