What is Death?
No one goes anywhere. There isn’t any need. It’s merely a change of state. A parallel existence, if you want to use the scientific paradigm. There is no such thing as loss. Sometimes, the way someone looses this form entails suffering. It can happen prematurely, and this isn’t good when it does, but there is…

Body Image
Here is a way to trigger/test your intuition. Consider your body. Just feel it, don’t think. Just be in your body. What is the first thing you know? No thinking. Just feel it and what do you know about your body? Barbie is inert plastic made to a silly image. Scary fiction. There is no…

Underlying Essence of Magick
Magick is a broad subject, but has a simple essence that gets lost terribly in many sources on the subject. Most people think of the human body and mind as somehow closed systems, but in fact this is very far from the case. We absorb the material and reflexively the essence of all the elements,…

Attunement with Magick
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 Energies in the World
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…

What is ‘Psychic’?
Psychic function is not any more mysterious or complicated than learning style. One of the biggest stumbling blocks about learning to perform psychically is the idea that it’s necessarily a special state of mind. The brain itself is a sense organ. It exists to sense the input from the senses and assemble it into “coherent”…

Our Thought and Senses
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.…

Triggering Psychic Function
So how to trigger the psychic ability if we choose, or knowingly avoid the triggers? Your mind is a world. Has many facets like a kaleidoscope that will show you different things with a change in focus. Most people are more focused on emotion than they would admit, and so they are caught up in…

Psychic Connection to Dreaming
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…

Psychic Doing: Feeling
Ok, so far other posts in this series on Light Metaphysical Practice have only discussed the principles of how psychic function is possible. We haven’t gone into the actual doing yet, and it is potentially helpful to figure out the actual doing of it. Space and time do not exist, thus you remember a contact even…

Psychic Doing: Vision
You can also try a vision exercise. What we will look at is self directed vision. If you have a stronger sense, it makes sense to use it and use vision to supplement it if you need more clarity. So with vision…the same exercise as feeling, only different focus. Exercise: Focus on seeing. Recall a…

The Doubting Psychic
You may be cautious about your mind ‘making up’ a story. If so, don’t believe these words and don’t believe your thinking right now. It is the same process. Don’t believe what your body is telling you. We all take cognizance in exactly the same way. It is all the mind making up a story.…

News
The media, and the corporations like it. It’s very easy to control an addict. Give them more of what they think they want, and fear triggers the herd instinct. Fear is the mind killer as Frank Herbert said. We don’t go our own way while afraid. We look for help and trust our leaders. Leadership…

Dream and Astral Travel
The subject of dream and astral travel is a bit complex, so forgive me if I have to cover a lot of theory. The subject is also a little broad. In fact, I will start with a little neural science. It applies both to near death (nde) phenomenon and hypnogogic states. Your brain actually processes…

Astral Realm
The earth itself has an astral component. A realm of existence that would correspond to its very own astral body. In Shamanism, this is often referred to as the spirit world and even the departed don’t usually leave this psychosphere of the planet. This is in part why mediums aren’t actually very challenged in reaching…

Principle of Affinity
There is a principle of affinity. To see another level you do have to achieve a resonance with it. There does seem to be a bit of glorification of this and I think the reason would be that some levels do feel uplifting. They can create a sense of euphoria as the fairies dance did…

The One Point
The daemons are not the monsters even in angelic lore. The idea that angels are creatures of beauty and demons horrible monsters is false. Those who tend the darkness are truly kindly but the big scare isn’t demons, it’s yourself. Yourself made manifest in all its terrible glory. So astral journeying can have a use…

Incarnation
In Gnostic Christianity they speak of resurrection in the Gnostic sense, of being truly reborn into life. They see a life without knowledge of spirit as being among the dead, under the governance of Samael lord of the blind. a.k.a Shaitan to the Yazidi people. The demi-urge, who took governance of this world after the…
Category: Light Metaphysics
I will be exploring more specifically the ‘psychic and paranormal’ phenomenon. Perhaps they will help you understand more about yourself. As Derek Acorah is quoted, “Everyone who is born to the Earth has the psychic ability lying dormant.”
Do I have concrete psychic/spiritual experiences? Indeed. I am defined medically as autistic, meaning I’m “self absorbed.” I experience the internal processes first. The neural structure that screens things and slows down sense impression for processing doesn’t work for me. Sensory impressions come to me like abstract input and I interpret stuff “strangely.”
I “order” information in a certain way, and I have no subconscious as others understand it. Dream like imagery is a part of my waking experience, so forms a psycho sensory gestalt. Someone I meet in person, her personal presence her personality and any symbolism, form a fused construct in my mind, and I have a language focus because it provides a framework for cognitive organization. Even incorporating some terms from languages other than my birth tongue.
For myself experience and practice came first.
