A Communal Phenomenon
Applying the law of synchronicity can be as simple as having a different thought? It can, yes, and your habitual thoughts show up as synchronicities in your environment. But perhaps some clarification… Habitual thoughts don’t have to be conscious thoughts. There are many experiments, that are reliably reproduced in labs these days, that can “prime”…

Sense the Smell of Energy
I keep reminding myself that a small change now will result in a big deviation down the line. Indeed, and this is the purpose for recognizing synchronicity, why we have the instinct for it that we do. Our minds behaviour is shaped sort of like the behaviour of a fish. Just as a fish can…

Circular Thought
Tonight, we are discussing circles. Perhaps I should get right to the heart of the topic and work out from there. Properly ordered thought is circular thought, and much as that may sound irrational, what is our life, as we perceive it, other than sets of seemingly self evident premises? Our unconscious minds follow that…

Central Observer Self
What would you say best symbolizes modern thinking? Nature itself favours circles, cells, DNA helix patterns, which looked at from the top down would look like a wheel. What about a grid? We think like our maps? Indexes. We want to partition, quantify and monetize everything. We think square in a round world? Exactly. We work…

Breaks in the Circle
Let’s lay a grid over our mandala of observer and beliefs. Now as you navigate this model, you have to obey all the lines you encounter. How smoothly does the grid covered mandala flow? It doesn’t mesh. Let’s give our inner mind all the credit we can then, and add the rule that whenever you…

Order is Us
Can our circles remain unbroken forever? Can we, through any effort of keeping order in our lives, prevent this? It seems myopic or stunted to me. In the breaking and reforming of the circles is mankind’s evolution. Would that get boring if they were never broken? True on both counts. They will inevitably be intersected.…

Hyperspace Between the Circles
If all our circles are intersecting with each other, would it be logical to say circles seek other circles for awareness/experience? It would. This is why ceremonial magicians of the west think of the circles as giving them the ability to command the spirits. It doesn’t actually do that. It just sets the scene for…

Magick Circles in Life
You don’t have to learn elaborate rituals to use or understand the role of the magick circle in your life. You can find them readily enough in your daily activities, in the routes you take through your community as you go about your daily affairs, in your pattern of sleeping, really any cycle you care…

Knots in the World
Knots show up in symbolism much more often than you might think such a simple image would. They even show up in our turns of speech, phrases, like I have a knot in my stomach, or this problem is all snarled up, or traffic is. Knots occur in the world around us and we observe…
-
Order and Flow
Perhaps we should get down to the magickal practice? The purpose of any magick working is not to literally cause change with our actions themselves. They seem to lack this power, and superficially this is true. Why we engage in any working of magick is to focus the mind. We become the things we do…

Creating a Knot
Everyone familiar with transcendental meditation? When a person transcends to a higher plane or dimension whilst in their meditative state? Actually, it’s a school of meditation emphasizing repetition of a mantra. Often one the meditator doesn’t even know the meaning of, or the meaning may be forgotten in ancient history. Now as simple and silly…

First Dreams
Today, we are talking about dreams. Not so much as experiences we have, as a process that is ongoing throughout our lives. A message from the world to our deepest selves, even if the signal is perhaps often too full of noise to be very clear. Your first period of sleeping consciousness occurred in the…

First Spark of Consciousness
We have two basic domains of dream, what we might consider peaceful or sweet dreams, and disturbing dreams or nightmares, and each of them are as ingrained as our own DNA. They form the fundamental basis of our consciousness. How we dream affects how the fetus develops. It can develop snoring, low birth weight, attention…

Positive and Negative Dreaming Face
So in general, both the nightmare dreamer and the peaceful dreamer can have positive as well as negative growth outcomes. Shall I speak to the growth outcomes of the peaceful or nightmare dreamer first? Nightmare. Ok, nightmare it is. Nightmare Dreamer Nightmares aren’t always blatantly scary, right? They can just simply be confusing you. In the…

Dream Shapes Your Thinking
Now we get to thinking. The end of the line in the couriers route from the world to our waking minds. You think that everything you have been taught, everything that has ever been said or done to you, has to be kept in mind at all costs. We must not ever forget the hurts…

Maybe So
What would be the most real facet of human experience? Dying? Ah, it can be made more useful by making your conscious thinking more open ended, sort of like mindfulness meditation, but it doesn’t even have to be that formal. If you just keep an attitude of “maybe so” in your day to day life,…

All You Own & All You Are
This is the rune othila, also known as odal. It is the symbol of inheritance, legacy, tradition, family and nation. Collectively, these all fall under the category of what’s mine. We are often very much absorbed in considering how to get things that fall into the category of what is not yet mine, and this…

Experience of a Living World
Let’s take this to a more practical level. Why do you do anything for anyone else? Why does anyone do anything for you? Do they have to do anything? Do you? To be human and have a connection? To be human is to accept your inheritance, to accept the legacy of experience that was handed…
