Consciousness is the Order
The pursuit of knowledge for its own sake would seem to be gratifying, but the presence of the implicate order in any field of knowledge is readily evident. All existence is limited or else it would be present solely as a potentiality spread throughout the implicate order. Gnosis and knowledge are inextricable. Even science requires…

Justice Is Order
What is justice, friends? I think a balance, like the scales of Libra. Consequence somehow in balance. It’s not marginal. Consequence perhaps. People typically relate it to ‘deserving’. Karma. All good, thank you. Today, I intend to offer the premise that justice is order, and in a sense is marginal in that it relies on…

Broken Order
The seeds of other peoples orderly world, or “world order”, are present in our lives in what we call roles, jobs, relationships, self images, social rank and public image, even fashion of dress. It’s very wide spread. These are not totally negative. They can be helpful to have some loose ideas for how to organize…

Bard Order
Bards were perhaps the most feared and respected of the Druid order. The Druids themselves lived as hermits when they weren’t officiating ceremonies, even practicing asceticism much like a Buddhist monk. You could call a news anchor a Bard perhaps? Yes, you could. But the old Bards had more integrity and wielded their influence much…

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
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
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…

Inner Spiritual Order
Adoration is the understanding of one’s own inner spiritual order. You start from your center, and then you arrange your channels of expression around that. Your center should be in a sense sacrosanct. Your most sacred aspect of life. But the spirit being what it is, it needs to flow out into other facets of…

Core Order
They are discovering a great deal about the behaviour of the human mind. They will very likely unearth all the “science” there is to have from it. They will not understand the mind or its functions without art. It will have to be an art first and foremost. It is the core order. Art helps…

Creates an Order in Our Minds
They tried to alphabetize our native Hawaiian language. Our phonetics, each and every sound and syllable, had roots in very ancient sound forms that echoed connectives to primal forces, energies, actions. I have been taught these sounds. Primordial expression. Written word is kind of like freezing sound. It was visions and ideas first, sound only came later…

Mayan Spiritual Order
Mayan astrology is really an extension of Mesoamerican efforts in general. The Aztec people were working on the same general sort of thing as well, so the distinction is perhaps overly fine a point to make. Mayan astrology doesn’t focus primarily on planetary observation. It does involve things like that, especially tracking the star Venus,…

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.…

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…

Numerological Order
What is Benford’s Law? I thought maybe I should get down to that. It’s a pattern that emerges in various applied fields of mathematics. That the number “1” seems to occur more often than other numbers in data-sets? Ah, you summarized it well, but it goes further than that. As much as many scientists would…
