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

  • Order Of Blood

    Order Of Blood

    As far as positive blood magick practices, meditation and breath control are a given. Yoga and tai-chi, as well as diet magick. Sex as a spiritual practice. Like a detox diet? Selectively in that case. Sterility is a state in synch with the dark earth. The entities of the dark earth being for the most…

  • Hermetic Natural Order

    Hermetic Natural Order

    Hermeticism loosely defined is the study of the natural or divine order. They are seen as one and the same. Today’s topic involves those aspects of nature that people consider darker or more scary. In Hermeticism, all powers or forces in the universe are a manifestation of divine nature and thus divine will. But this…

  • Grander Order

    Grander Order

    The topic is Dark Hermeticism. I mean to deal with the dark powers or those things humanity considers dark, and discuss how they relate to the grander order in general. Every force we revere has its dark mirror, both physical and spiritual forces. In Hermeticism, there is seen to be no actual separation between physical…

  • Dark, Light And Actual

    Dark, Light And Actual

    For the purpose of human focus… There are two realms, as we can observe two domains of behaviour in nature. Those that we see as supportive and those we see as malignant, and throughout human history there have been people who have been drawn to the study and even the use of what others consider…

  • Two Schools Of Hermeticism

    Two Schools Of Hermeticism

    The dark and light schools of the hermetic seeker do have modern counterparts, and the two schools also have two facets each. The seekers who gave emphasis to the forces of light were known as theurgists, and later as priests. Among the light oriented seekers the two facets are the puritans, or those who seek…

  • Multiverse Authority

    Multiverse Authority

    In Hermeticism, no single class of divine being is actually God. No single being is the one divine authority. Now on the topic of demonic authority, recognition of demonic authority does not mean glorification of evil acts. One example would be the Yezidi people. They believe that the creator is fundamentally and absolutely good and…

  • Dimensions Of Light And Shadow

    Dimensions Of Light And Shadow

    In the series on the Tree Of Life, I spoke of the divine lights. The emanations that gave rise to the creative process in the world and the creation of the world, these being the same thing. But in order for there to be room for the emergence of the divine lights, the God being…

  • Planes Of Shadow

    Planes Of Shadow

    You say dark and light are not really at war, yet when we think of the “bad guy” we picture them in dark clothing and hidden faces. Indeed, and there are even instinctive, intuitive reasons for that, and deeper mysteries behind that. Why would the bad guy even want to hide his face? The basic…

  • Transformation to Shadow

    Transformation to Shadow

    People don’t believe that anything can be learned from lies, that anything can be gained from suffering. Most people’s most basic instinct is pleasure seeking, goal seeking. Got to get the thing you want. Even the noble goals are pleasure seeking. Did you once say that everything is a lie? I did indeed, and the…

  • Virtue To Vice

    Virtue To Vice

    Another virtue? Thrift. I will go with thrift, also called prudence or sound judgement. The dedication to thrift leads to wise disposition of resources, and accomplishing the greatest good possible in the present moment, at any time. It seems very wise, yes? Thrift pursued with full commitment leads to a desire to control more resources, because…

  • Parallel Path

    Parallel Path

    Each sephira or shell is linked to the same planet, and each shell has a body of intelligence and individual intelligences. These spirits are called demons to use the English term, and it’s the only model of demon Kabbalists have. It’s the only concept of demon Judaism includes. At first, your venturing into one of…

  • Tree Of Shadow Followers

    Tree Of Shadow Followers

    Any questions about the tree of shadow, or what someone who really follows it is like? What are they like? How do we spot them? They acquire an earthy, elemental quality. They have a positive reductionism. When all is seen as ash and coal you sort out the diamonds. No horror shakes them, no loss…

  • Agreements You Live By

    Agreements You Live By

    I will start today’s topic on Taboo by asking you all a question. The question is this. Are you aware of the agreements you live by? Most of them I think. It’s likely that you know a great many. We all live our lives with some unspoken agreements. Some major premises we just assume are…

  • Bonds To Life Flow

    Bonds To Life Flow

    We have certain agreements that come to us quite naturally, instinctively. We want to live. Not only that, but we want our bloodline to live. We want our allies to live. We want our friends to live. The overall goal is to have a certain measure of stability, because that lets us bounce back when…

  • Stuck In The Middle

    Stuck In The Middle

    On the subject of taboos, and if this offends I apologize, it is the nature of our Dark Metaphysics class. We have other events less controversial. We have that sense of things we must not do, but we also refuse to think about these things we must not do. If we do that, then how…

  • Meeting Point

    Meeting Point

    I feel we’re free one moment and then comes the pursuit of equilibrium. Back to freedom again once the pursuit is forgotten about. That is a good insight. It gets right to the heart of the topic of Taboo. What is an agreement? Dedication. Surrender. Common understanding and a promise to keep. Those are indeed…

  • Look Left

    Look Left

    There is a new comedy called “Four Lions” about suicide bombers. It’s a very oddly toned movie. There is a scene in there where they discuss the heart and the mind. One guy has doubts and the leader says, that’s your mind giving you doubts, and the guy says, but I think it’s my heart.…

  • Choose What You Will

    Choose What You Will

    If someone says you hurt my feelings, what is the way to balance it? Give them a hug? If someone hurts your feelings, the imbalance is in you, and I have hurt someones feelings by giving them a hug before. Even made them cry and no physical force was involved. Look at why your feelings…
