Practice Of Religion
Religion is from the Latin world religio, which was their word for practice of any kind. Legal is also a word that comes from the same root. It’s hard to name one body of beliefs (well, it’s really impossible), and say “There … what that is, is religion.” In fact, for as long as humanity…

Practice Of Crystal Magick
How can we use knowledge of crystals to our advantage? Every disadvantage is the breakdown of a crystal like resonance, an entropy of an otherwise clear signal. All potentials that can manifest in life manifest in countless forms, many of which seem unrecognizable to our contemporary understanding of reality. The formation of blood has at…

Practice of Oneiromancy
There are three basic styles of oneiromancy, just as there are three different fields of dream. There is the theurgic, where through contemplation of divinity and adoration of the presences of the God/Goddess, your dreams begin to take on the nature of that divine wisdom. Then there is the hermetic, which is through an immersion…

Why Do You Practice Charity?
Why do you practice charity? Compassion. I somehow image their pain. Charity, perhaps in its most fundamental form, is willingness. Whatever life presents to you, whomever you come into contact with and how they engage you, you respond with a willingness to allow that thing to be the truth. I feel people should be able…

Shamanic Practice
Want a general example of how to do Shamanism? Well, you can just let your spirit wander, but they call that day dreaming these days. So let’s actually chose a focus, something we want to understand, or a problem we want to solve and issue we want to overcome. If you care to share, I…

Faith In Practice
People should choose their participation in sport in the same way they choose their spiritual path? Neither is right or wrong? Yes. The reason perhaps for the spectacular falls and failings of our modern hero Gods is their lack of spiritual grounding. Sport is left brain? Spirit path right? Sport is the unification of mind…

Integrity in Spiritual Practice by Kimberly Wilson
The pursuit of a spiritual life, contrary to popular portrayal and belief, is not marked by devil-may-care, experimental, or self-indulgent practices. To be sure, there are many counterfeit brands of spirituality that claim to change lives and heighten spiritual awareness, but these programs are more akin to (and sometimes are) drug usage than they are…

Practice of Corruption
The impact of corruption goes beyond the thing corrupted. Corruption has a weight to it, and the change it creates in the now compromised form, or situation, goes on to create change in the things connected to it. Focused with wisdom, the elimination of a static state makes more energy available for life supportive processes…

Practice Has a Form
Our inner most nature might be a higher self? One behind the day to day belief systems, and one of a core belief or path? Yes exactly. Chinese philosophy goes into that. They say, “That which goes against the Tao cannot stand.” The Tao is an all-encompassing harmony of the universe itself. They also say…

Practice to Synchrony
Perhaps further elaboration will better serve. I have done a lot of teaching on a lot of different practices. They come in all colors and forms, and we each share our own special gift with the world. Someone who brings red is ill served and negated when they try to conform to a standard of…

Dark Practice
Let’s consider a tradition others might consider almost barbaric. There is a sect of Buddhist monks that practice an unusual rite of passage, mud wrestling, and I don’t mean some pseudo-erotic nonsense. I mean they get in the mud with the initiate, and they proceed to actually fight. They fight to exhaustion, and then conclude…

Practice the Memory of the God
I may get a little Gnani here, non-devotional. From one point of view the purpose of ritual is to honor the gods, and I won’t deny that. People tend to get caught up in what might please the gods. I guess because we like to make people we care about feel good, happy. But as…

Practice of Enochian Magick
Can enochian magic be used by people? Indeed it can. Besides the use of the call, also called the key, there is the keeping of a small “temple” in a private place, more of a shrine if you look at it structurally, and extensive practice of divination, most often gematria. The purpose of the shrine…

A Way to Practice Life
Now over time, you might have to change some game pieces, specifically your pieces. The other pieces don’t belong to you, but you can always continue playing the game, no? What do you really have if you don’t play? People imply there is something better, is there? More free time? Ah, recent research suggests that…

Practice of Bragging
So, has everyone heard of priming? This is a scientific practice. By introducing key words or concepts, either deliberately or even subliminally, they can alter how ready your brain circuits are to fire. They can set up specific trains of thought to be more likely to occur. Like if they get you to read off…

Dragon Intuitive Book Selection of the Month
If I were a wealthy man, I would see libraries preserved and developed, not neglected and shuffled off. It would include all books, BS and truth. Books have the same power as word of mouth, sometimes more so. In lies truth, and in truth lies. Happiness can be in reading a good book. Just reading the…
