Syncretism Special
It's truly hard to understand the value of such a library until you have to build your own: the link

Spooky pseudoscience for fun and profit.

Alright so for friday night let's get syncretic. I might even tell yall how silent hill is the most cognizant treatise on folk belief and practice since chumbley.
>Silent Hill
Tell me more.
Actually, is there a regular chemmage or narcomancer who lives in these threads? Sorry to bypass stated desire for discussion.
>>17664972
Out of curiosity, what's your question?
My library on such matters spans about 600gb+. Never shared it. Give me a way to contact you and I will send you screen shots and see if you want anything. Been working on it for years.
>>17666527
upload something to google drive
So, why is silent hill a cognisant treatise on folk belief?
Anyone got some good talisman making advice?
What does /x/ think of E.A. Koetting?
I've looked through some of his stuff. Mostly it seems like he's a snake oil salesman but some of his stuff is on point.
>>17668546
He IS a snake oil salesman. Quite literally, he sells snake oil. Or did, maybe. He's in jail for guns and meth, yeah?
I'll be perfectly honest with you, I haven't read any of his work. That said, I'd bet my bottom dollar he's just restating what is easily learned elsewhere, for far less exorbitant prices.
Hmm Interestíng ís Thát a Hoúse ? looks líke Monstér Hoúse.
>>17664972
Is this a joke?
>>17668583
Namefagging in bad Latin, asking about *mancers?
Yeah, I'd say so.
>>17668561
>I'll be perfectly honest with you, I haven't read any of his work
Opinion discredited.
Anyway, yea, E.A Koetting is the real deal. I've performed many a ritual and have come upon many spiritual insights most people would be incapable of reaching without the help if certain daemons.
Ask me anything if you want to know more, but remember, knowledge always comes at a price.
>>17668597
>but remember, knowledge always comes at a price.
Three easy payments of $299.95?
I can't wait until he releases his next book, Prison Rape Magick.
What experience does anyone here have with Astarte/Astaroth?
I was recently told by a spirit to contact her, but I can't find too much information on her online.
>>17668596
I wouldn't expect anything less here really.
>>17668631
Unless you've actually paid for his Work's and read them I think its time to shut the fuck up and stop being an intellectually dishonest bitch, mmmkay.
>>17668694
The glory days of /x/, if you ever could have called them that, are over friend. Now we have a half dead thread mostly consisting of uninformed questions, shitposts, and some cunt sucking EA Koetting's dick.
It's a shame, really.
>>17668708
I've been around the block enough to know that some shitbag isn't going to be able to sell me enlightenment on a goddamn payment plan. No intellectual dishonesty here, I freely admit I haven't read any of his works. His slimy personality and questionable business practices say enough on their own.
>>17668717
Not the Koetting guy, but Crowley's personal life was pure shit, too. Koetting may be presenting perfectly good information like Crowley did.
>>17668735
This, his stuff is actually quite insightful if you read it. Sucks that its so expensive but hey, knowledge comes at a price right?
>>17668745
Or you could torrent them.
His Mastering Evocation course is quite good. Some other guy can pay the price, though.
>>17668752
>Some other guy can pay the price, though.
Nah... Not cool dude. When I say knowledge comes at a price, I mean Koetting went to the ends of the Earth to retrieve that. As above, so below... Right? He pays a price, so do we. Its the law if correspondence.
>>17668735
You're certainly not wrong. Crowley had his own fair share of problems. It's Koetting's baseness and crassitude in hawking his snake oil that casts doubt on anything he produces.
Sure, maybe he's blundered into relevant information. I just have no doubt the same information is otherwise available. Shit, pirate it if you really feel like reading it. Personally, I won't waste my time on someone who sells initation on a payment plan.
>>17668597
>>17668708
>>17668766
Go to bed Matthew
>>17668778
Keep in mind it was not so long ago that this kind of information was not public knowledge. He has a successful business plan, though his ethics are certainly poor. I don't think Koetting cares much about ethics.
In any case he's certainly raking in cash.
>>17668791
>>17668778
Just shut the fuck up dude.
>>17668791
I'm not disagreeing with you on the success of his business plan. I imagine he is making money, and I'm well certain he doesn't care much about ethics.
The kind of information he's peddling, though, is as public knowledge as it's going to get and has been for a number of years. The real information doesn't arrive via words on a page but through the initiate's own experience.

>>17669831
Astarte looks to be mainly benevolent from what I've been able to find. I'm just trying to find out other people's personal experience with her.
It was made clear to me that I have to contact her. I just need more information first.
>>17664834
Do curses exist?
What would Richard Dawkins say about it?
>>17670166
Curses exist. They are dangerous. Doing any kind of magick attracts forces similar to your will to you. For example, if you regularly engage in necromancy, you attract an aura of death which can affect your physical health and wellbeing. Curses work in much the same way. As within, so without. There are ways to evade the negative effects of curses and it's not difficult to evade them, but if you don't take care you can really fuck yourself up over time.
As for Richard Dawkins -- why would you take seriously the words of a man who is professed to one area of science, yet most often makes statements regarding other areas that he isn't well educated on, who gives into logical positivism which is strongly anti-intellectual, who has no formal education in ethics, formal or informal logic, metaphysics, or any other field of philosophy, who is blatantly self-righteous and speaks with condescension in his voice at all times? Richard Dawkins deserves all of the respect one gives to a babbling homeless man and nothing more.
>>17670187
So are curses illegal? If they are truly dangerous there should be some law against it.
>>17670138
I don't think it wise to confuse Astarte with Astaroth.
>>17670192
Since 99% of people don't believe in them, it would be hard to prove. I am certain I'm cursed but if I described it to a "normie" , they'd say it was paranoia or try to armchair psychologically profile me(since everyone thinks they are experts on psychology)
>>17670187
Well he's still the athiest overlord. I wonder what he'd have to say about the subject.
>>17670208
Say if that 1% was the government or the law, could there be a law against it?
>>17670193
According to almost every source I can find, Astaroth is the bastardization of Astarte.
When Christianity took over Europe most of the old gods were renamed and called demons. Most sources I've found say that this is true of Astaroth and Astarte, and only a few sources I've found have said they're anything different. I tend to believe the massive consensus rather than the minority which says otherwise.
>>17668561
I'm not sure, if that snake oil wasn't sold by another guy, one who also wrote and sold some pua books. Also Koetting as far I know isn't in prison, at least for now, I don't know if and how that case ended .
As for Koetting, I would say he is not that bad, his books are nothing new, but that doesn't means they are bad, you could get worse than him. And also it's true that he is mostly businessman, though he is not the first and not the last to sell magic items/services, and it's not like others cannot sell them as well.
>>17670216
What you discovered is true. However, that in no way entails that Ashtaroth and Astarte are the same entity. One is a.demon and the other a Semitic goddess. Don't confuse them.
>>17670213
I know nothing about curses , but i don't see how you could show proof someone cursed you. Like I said, I'm certain I am but it can also be a string of coincidences all taking place at once. Is there a way to "know" if you are cursed?
>>17668356
How the fuck do I unbind a single (1) Djinn from a talisman?
It's getting spoopy as fuck, I need out of this deal
>>17670220
This seems an ironic statement in a thread focused on syncretism. But I'll keep what you said in mind and will specifically call out to Astarte rather than using any other name.
>>17670286
Obviously, I'm no fan of strong syncretism. Best of luck.
Are there laws against cursing?
>>17670236
Pls someone help, I can't keep losing sleep like this, nightmares every night.
Shingon Buddhist from /his/ here. So this is where you guys went. I guess I'll start visiting this board more often. I'm hoping it won't be too full of /x/ silliness about tulpa and the like.
I wonder what happened to that Ape of Thoth fellow anyway.
>>17670704
Gtfo you pretentious faggot
>>17670710
Make me, nerd.
>>17670691
Set up ritual. Meditate 30 minutes. Consecrate water. Bless space with water. Perform lesser banishing ritual of the pentagram, banishing ritual of the hexagram. Focus on the talisman until you see/hear/feel the spirit. You then must perform an exorcism on both yourself and the object. Say this prayer for both yourself and the object while anointing yourself and the talisman with the blessed water:
"Enu shub am gig absu, kish agigga gar shag da sisie amaradaya, dingir ud kalama siniku, dingir ninab guyu nexrannku, ga ya shu shagmuku tu!"
Be sure to reverberate each word deep in your chest and throat to enhance your intent. Focus on both casting the djinn away and closing off both yourself and the talisman to the djinn's influence.
Meditate on this until you no longer feel the djinn's presence. Then put the talisman in a box and bury it far away from your home, so that you don't accidentally psychologically trigger yourself to open up to the djinn again.
>>17664834
So, I'm trying to get into the occult, but it's hard for me to read on computers.
Would any of the books on these lists show up in a library in a larger town? Or should I just try harder to focus?
>>17664834
Can anyone do a healing spell on my behalf or point me in the right direction? I want to get better. I don't want to be ill like this. I don't want the pity, the pats on the shoulder, the treading around me so carefully.
I didn't leave the house on my own at all last year. Only a few times this year. I just want to be better.
>>17670892
Read some stuff on evocation and the goetia. Summon Buer. He is a healer and he will help you.
>>17670910
Okay, I will do. Thanks for the nudge in the right direction, anon.
So I just draw his sigil and call on him or something like that?
Where am I going to get something that will act as a ring of Solomon?
>>17670946
You can use paper for most of it. Times and such are very important. You'll need a ritual space.
>>17670946
You can also use other spirits, for example archangel Raphael or Michael. He should be easier to call, you don't need any special items for that. See book called Heptameron for that. You can also summon spirits from Goetia without tools, or you can make ring from paper etc.
As for how evoke, read book like Konstantinos Summoning Spirits or Koetting Evoking Eternity, they should give you general view on how this is done.
Also, are your issues physical or mental?
>>17671015
>As for how evoke, read book like Konstantinos Summoning Spirits or Koetting Evoking Eternity
Kinda lost credibility, there.
>>17671007
Fuck. I barely have any space as it is.
>>17671015
Without tools?
They're physical. Some minor mental (mainly confidence issues) because of the physical. Collapsing (but being conscious) in the street and people just walk past you as you watch on helplessly does that to you I guess.
>>17671025
What's wrong with those?
>>17671025
Dunno about Evoking Eternity, but Summoning Spirits is a really good plain-English guide to the basics. The preliminary exercises in visualization and scrying are especially useful.
>>17671033
>What's wrong with those?
They're crap.
>>17671025
I don't really want to go into shitstorms, I never said those books are best about evocation, I simply said that they show how it its generally done, like that anon said. >>17671039
Also all those books after all have mostly the same informations in them, if anyone knows better sources please post them.
>>17671033
Yes, plenty of people use just triangle and circle, make seals from paper, and skips rest of items. If you have small amount of space, and you can't use incense, you can use mirror instead.
>>17670946
Don't pay attention to those who say that the times are important.
Start with banishing ritual of pentagram, removes spiritual influence over the ritual. Then banishing ritual of hexagram to remove planetary influence. That makes it so that dates and times are meaningless.
My suggestion for summoning Buer:
>Draw circle on ground, have tools ready
>perform pentagram/hexagram
>Light candles/incense
>Have offering ready, engage in psychic vampirism if you must to get a lot of energy to offer if that's your thing
>Meditate on Buer's sigil and chant/pray/whatever you need to do in order to get you into that magick mental state
>After some time, if your intent is sharp enough, you will feel Buer's presence
>Make request and offer your offering
>Get some kind of notification of acceptance or rejection
>Close ritual
>Bless the area
You don't need a bunch of tools or a formal layout or anything. Use symbols if you feel like you need them. Since you're presumably not looking to be some kind of powerful mage, you don't need to work yourself up to the point where you can clearly see the entity, just feel its presence. Actual full visual and auditory interaction with demons takes a long time to be able to do.
>>17671085
>Then banishing ritual of hexagram to remove planetary influence. That makes it so that dates and times are meaningless.
confirmed for fucking retard.
Waving your hand in the air doesn't remove anything. They affect you, the space around you and the Demon, so good luck with your teletubby, lazy man's method of summoning.
>>17671064
Jake's stuff is good. You can still fake much of it with paper props, but he's otherwise good.
More generally there is Skinner and Peterson, who are pursuing the grimoire traditions. There's more good material out there than ever.
>>17671085
>Don't pay attention to those who say that the times are important.
>doesn't even understand the mechanics
On a little different topic, has anyone worked with New Avatar Power (NAP)? Did you had success with it? It's just visualizations without any tools, so if that anon has issue with space he could try it.
>>17664834
Are there any modern, non-Christian occult or magical disciplines that actually have a dogma? All I can find for pagan dogmas are "just be yourself brah" and "it's just, like, your opinion, man".
>>17671114
>>17671097
Simply put, if something doesn't work, or isn't of major importance, it can be discarded. All fields grow in this way, including magick. Nobody has the time to create a sword with a whole bunch of symbols engraved into it blessed under the full moon during a certain time of the year with a two paragraph long prayer in Hebrew just so they can do a single simple evocation. Your long-winded heavily ritualistic methods of magick may be more time consuming and require great dedication, but my method works and has yielded major results.
Emptiness is form, form is emptiness -- or as above, so below! In truth all of your symbols are meaningless, your words even moreso, your circles powerless, your "ateh, malkuth," and so on have no true meaning, you wield no true power, at least no more than me. The one and only thing that matters in magick is the Will. You use your timeslots and rituals as a means of focusing your Will. Not all of us are so dependent on those structures to do the same thing.

In this case, you are obviously not in a position to make that determination rationally. You're just lazy.
>>17664834
A post from other thread:
>>17673288
What can anons say about validity of these claims from the standpoint of the occult?
>>17673301
Can you be more specific?
>>17673324
Does it make sense, does the anon seems to have any idea about what he wrote or it's all made up bullshit as far as even esoterics go?
>>17673330
Seems like more-or-less honest speculation. It's flawed, in that it takes aliens for granted, without compelling evidence. It also seems to lump all spirits and such together, which seems unwarranted.
>>17668778
>trap entities
>learn how to undergo demonic possession
seems kinda contradictory

>"Enu shub am gig absu, kish agigga gar shag da sisie amaradaya, dingir ud kalama siniku, dingir ninab guyu nexrannku, ga ya shu shagmuku tu!"
lol i never trust anything like that coming off /x/ haha. I am interested in pentagrams for protection though. What exactly do they do to the spirits? drive them off? bind them up inside? What would i achieve by putting pentagrams above my bed like dreamcatchers?
My gf has a lot of fucked up dreams and i was thinking of trying something with pentagrams but i'm not really sure where to start.
Not the talisman guy btw.
I did some spoopy shit, we'll see if it works.
It was really hard, and scary to accomplish. So it damn well won't work due to lack of trying.
>>17673695
Dreams don't have to be due to some malevolent spirits.
As for protection etc the standard - Lesser Banishment Ritual of Pentagram performed regularly - every few days - is what is most popular, easy to perform and relatively effective as a first basic line esoteric defense (and often sufficient as the only such line for an average practitioner who doesn't dabble in some really freaky shit). Though I've heard claims that it can actually draw things too after longer period of time - but usually non-malicious, and possibly even helpful things, drawn to "pure" environment of ritual space.
>>17673799
>As for protection etc the standard - Lesser Banishment Ritual of Pentagram performed regularly - every few days -
Daily is quite reasonable.
>>17673799
Well she's been having really bad nightmares practically her whole life. She had a really abusive childhood so I'm thinking at the least she has some very negative thought forms floating around in her subconscious.
I was also wondering about this one, anyone ever practiced it?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgROt1E4IyA
Do ya'll think liches are real. Are there any guides on how to undergo the transformation?
>>17673836
>Daily is quite reasonable.
Maybe, but supposedly people who have almost no practice and are merely dabblers performing LBRP daily could suffer from some minor issues.
>>17673900
dubs of truth.
>>17673900
Such as?
>>17673865
Liches as you are thinking of them are almost entirely made up by D&D, and are based on a Russian (I think.) legend.
So...no.
>>17673865
The liches as seen in popculture? No. They're not. At all. With great dose of certainty.
The thing is simple - you need a working body to house and tether your soul. While one could think of a soul being bound on earth, possessing some body, it'd be still just a ghost which moves around some dead matter. Such body wouldn't be useful at all from ghost's perspective, not to mention that power required to reliably and consistently affect material world would make such an entity on par with the most powerful adepts - and such kind of entities would likely have better shit to do and even those entities who for some reason would need a medium to interact with the world would achieve better results with less effort by possessing some creature.
>>17673905
Burnout, strain on energetic body resulting possibly in some minor and usually temporary issues of nervous system or mental health. LBRP is still, after all, purifying a space by (symbolic or not) the use of elemental energies and reaching out to aspects of the divine (names).
Stands to reason - although again, I cannot for sure say it is how it's claimed it is - that such elemental work would benefit from balanced approach, rather than intense diving into it.
>>17673939
I've been at this for a while and have never experienced such difficulties or heard credible rumors. The LRP was intended to be performed twice a day as a spiritual exercise.
So, no, that does not stand to reason at all.
>>17673865
For what purpose? What do you want out of it?
>>17674023
From experience I can tell you that beginners will experience burnout often. The LBRP isn't that straining, but if you're performing your magick correctly and you're not experienced it should definitely leave you exhausted. Simply put, if your magick is comfy and doesn't wipe you out as a beginner, you're doing it wrong.
>>17671864
>You use your timeslots and rituals as a means of focusing your Will
You don't understand astrology. It affects you and your will doesn't mean a thing if the planets are against you.
I agree that most ritual things are only tools in order to focus your will, but astrology legitimately affects you whether you like it or not.
>>17674228
I have never seen any astrological influence on my magick and I consistently get results.
>>17674228
If you can't tell a planet to fuck off, you're not as good as you think you are.
>>17674240
So what?
The Goetic demons have specific astrological attributions and times they should be called. Either make an effort to get it right or stick with sigils.
>>17674269
>Implying I have not summoned Goetic demons
Astrology has literally never been a factor in my practice. I've summoned demons. In fact, working with some demons requires you to keep contact with them far outside of the "times they should be called".
I guess an absolute beginner MIGHT benefit from following the astrological guidelines IF they have no prior knowledge in anything (not even meditation or energy work like qigong or yoga). But if you've got any level of experience you can avoid those things easily.
>>17674295
Not everyone is content to remain at your level and that requires looking up.
>>17674312
At my level? I am willing to bet that you have not accomplished more with magick than I have, friend.
>>17674379
>>17674312
Ladies...ladies...you're both pretty, calm down.
>>17674387
What about you, Orion? What's your opinion about astrology's role in ritual? Is it critical to the outcome of ceremonial magic, or can magicians forgo it without compromising on results?
>>17674398
The issue falls upon the system being used. If you go into magic, especially cerimonial stuff, and you assume that part of the recipe is not needed, you're making a mistake.
That doesn't mean astrology matters in all systems though. You can totally forgo it, unless it is intrinsic to the work you are performing.
In my opinion, if you are replicating something that has been done before (i.e...Ceremony.) I would not disregard any step in the already present instructions.
If you are exploring on your own, or are working in a grey area, you're free to pick and choose.
With the Goetia, astrology only matters (once again, this is my opinion.) if you are doing something very specific where it is prescribed. But on it's own? No. Not at all. If you want to get into Goetiatic stuff and do it your own way, or in a less strict manner, astrology has absolutely no, or minimal weight upon it.
>>17674398
If you want a pro tip you can use the banishing ritual of the hexagram to mitigate any unwanted effects of the astrological weather
>>17674379
Much more, in fact.
It's okay. I'm sure you'll move on when you're ready.
>>17674430
To some extent, yes.
>>17668708
>Unless you've actually paid for his Work's
His work's what? I don't get it.
Why would anyone pay for his books when they're all available to download for free? Not that they're worth downloading, but still...
Who here does magic in their dreams? I do all the time.

>>17675444
Thats what I suspected.
Just curious.
Can you guys share to me working sigil for temporary luck?
I have a question.
Lately I've been thinking that I was 'dead' until the age of 4, and then I had an old soul inhabit my body.
Reason I think this:
>Did not talk until I was 4
>No memories from before I was 4, and even as a 4 yr old I seemed aware of this
>When I was 4 I used full sentences and remember concisely beaking my brother pretty clearly
>My family said I went from 0 to hundred words per minute when I was 4
>as such a late talker I should have had other delays too, but by the time I was 7 I was reading full teenage books, and by the time I was 9 I was reading Stephen King
>I was adopted and my bio mom had been drinking while carrying me. I had several other signs of Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (lazy eye, nonexistent nostrils, ankle bracers, bad teeth) and by all means I should have been a mental potato. All I seem to have had is ADD, but was otherwise brighter than the kids in my school.
My theory is I was a mental potato case as an infant until ancestors or the like took pity on me, swooped in and landed me with a soul and a personality.
Is this something that actually happens? Is there a guide for people like me and is it worth looking in to?
I suppose what happened can't be fixed or changed, but I would like to understand better. In the past I felt very old, but now I feel actually younger than my years. Approximately 4-5 years actually, and I wonder if having a late-coming soul has something to do with that.
I've been meditating to kind of master my mind and develop my intuitive abilites, and there are two experiences I have when I do so.
>leave my mind completely blank
>wait
>fall half asleep
>start hearing voices and shit
>continues until I wake myself up
and the second one
>doing the mental falling technique as described on Meme of Satan http://www.angelfire.com/empire/serpentis666/Trance.html
>completely in control of my mind
>body becomes "stiff" and harder to move
>no external voices or images
>only what I will appears in my mind
>doesn't feel like the room expands, but rather I feel like the walls are in the exact same place, like I can actually feel the walls if I concentrate
Are there words for these seemingly seperate phenomenon, and is one of them better than the other or like what?
>>17670910
He is fond of forcing you to drink your own urine, it makes him lol. He also likes it when you eat earthworms. His ideal is that all things are medicine, life is death's cure, death is life's cure.
He is not really all that into those who might be picky, whilst starving.
He also doesn't like reliance on one thing, like if you are a doctor, study music as well.
This is what I've used for the preliminary evocation of booer-sama.

Thank you, I read a bit and have one question. There are some rituals of iniciations. According to this if I want to be magician I need to dedicate myself to some cults or God's and bound myself. Pls tell me I got it wrong. Can't I be kinda freelance or human been can't into magic without lending powers?
>>17676930
>According to this if I want to be magician I need to dedicate myself to some cults or God's and bound myself.
I'm not sure I understand that.
You don't have to join any cult or bind yourself to any god. Learning to practice magic would probably be easier,if you had someone to teach you and answer questions, though.
I sent you there because there are useful exercises -- like, Liber E and.Liber O -- and suggestions for useful books and resources in that appendix.

What kind of burnout.?
>>17677586
Doing magick can be exhausting, especially for a beginner. The mental and energetic strain for the beginner is great; they are working with modes of thought not commonly used (some say literally manipulating brain waves to produce electrical activity far higher than average), and most beginners aren't familiar with energy work or manipulation, which I find is key during magick. In terms of both energy work and mental work, doing magick is much like stretching. If you haven't stretched in years and you attempt to perform a spinning hook kick at head height or higher, you'll end up falling on your ass and maybe hurting the knee of your supporting leg or, more likely, pulling a muscle in your kicking leg. Spinning hook kick is to magick as energy work/small spells/etc are to stretching.
While practicing magick without having worked up to what you're doing, you will feel real physical effects. As a beginner, I went from wide awake to falling asleep after performing some magick often. It puts a lot of stress on your mind and body, as well as chi/chakras/etc, and for beginners it can be overwhelming.
>>17677640
Nonetheless, there is no reason to suspect the Lesser Banishing Ritual, practiced daily, is likely to cause any sort of burnout and no credible rumors of it doing so.
There is reason to expect it to be a safe and effective developmental exercise, and plenty of testimony to that effect, my own included.
I'm interested in magick that doesn't involve any spirits, whether evoking or invoking them. I'd rather depend on myself and my own skills. Is this realistic?
>>17674244

>Is this realistic?
Yeah, but weirdly self-limiting.
>>17678283
Not really. Just uninformed.
Question. From what I gather, Thelemites (and maybe even occultists in general) are against proselytizing/"evangelism." But why? Moreover, is there specific literature from Crowley, et al. that warns against proselytizing?

Ayy, was thinking of making a thread today or tomorrow afternoon.
Good to see some folks still making these, the semester's been a rough landing.

Well it largely goes back to the whole "do what thou wilt" thing; if someone's actually genuinely curious about this material, they'll ask you.
Liber CCC (300 aka Khabs am Pekht) deals with matters of promulgation.
>>17680260
Makes sense. Thanks.

^This, I think, is key.
I can give you access to 35 gigs of material but ain't nobody going to read, apply, or inquire about the shit but YOU. YOU have to cut your own way through this jungle, YOU have to do the Work, and YOU have to come to the apprehension of Alterity by YOURSELF.
Also consider; what occult faction is going to want a person who can be convinced to change epistemology and ontology through being verbally convinced by another? What religion in general would? I'd rather hunt down those who've come to change via direct experience rather than via rhetoric.

I'm having a huge problem with practice.
Vibration seems to have a huge effect on the neighbors dogs, that start barking like they are mad. It is loud, and also affects the neighbors, who want to know what the hell I am doing. I'm poor, and I don't have money to install soundproofing.
>>17680948
Do your intonations outside or some shit.
It should be making your entire braincase/respiratory system vibrate at low levels and you should be able to get it into your extremities with practice.
Dunno much more to say than that other than keep trying at various frequencies until you hit the sweet spot.
>>17680954

Then let me inquire. I want more Shakti flowing up my spine. I already have some, but not enough. How do I quickly awaken my Kundalini?
I already do Kundalini, hatha Yoga, a fuckload of pranayama and mantras. I need more.
where can i find references to cannabis as a magical plant? kabbalistic correspondences or general descriptions of the plant as a magical agent, surely there must be some? thanks anon!
>>17680976
>How do I quickly awaken my Kundalini?
IMH non-guru, non-initiated (but with wide survey of multiple traditional and contemporary systems of yoga), opinion, it's a natural process that develops as you gain proficiency with the system. There is no mantra that's going to unlock instant attainment (sorta). There's no pranayama metric that will grant instant Liberation.
My first question would be 'how far have you gone into dharana & dhyana'. If the answer is "none" or "not very", then that'd be where you go next.
That'll prep you for devotion to godforms and more complex and advanced visualization routines (See, for example off the top of my head, the commentary on Samekh for an example of the higher goals through Western eyes).

No, cobra breath is dope af, IJS, at some point you're going to need to yoga your way into devotion at some level.
Unfortunately, as I think I've mentioned, I got no idea what to do about Ganesha, I know next to nothing about the iterations of his cults, nor do I feel a particularly deep connection while in devotion.
Now, if we were talking Kali/Shiva I could point you at some stuffs, but as it stands you're gonna have to:

What does that even mean?
I'm having issues. I can feel a some, but not enough, energy going up the spine. It's getting stuck just below the neck.
I know that if I try hard enough, I can break the blockage soon. Give me medicine doctor.
>>17681056
Thoth, I seek guidance. I often see you, so perhaps you can help me.
Through my study of the occult and philosophy, I have reached a point where the books are no longer helping me. I have seen the visions, I have escaped the body, I have realized the Hermetic principles (among others, such as Taoist and Advaita Vedantic principles) in powerful, deep, and personal ways, I have evoked the spirits, I have brought them into myself, my energy is in balance and I feel the flow of magick in the phenomenal world of illusion.
And yet now I still know that there are greater levels of realization, of ascension, yet none of these materials offer me any more knowledge than I already have.
What do I do, Thoth? Who do I turn to? Is there some great teacher who I can call upon or visit? Where do I go to find the wisdom that I know is out there, somewhere?
>>17681232
Have you walked the Earth?
>>17681232
Step up your game with more ambitious operations (Dragon Book of Essex, Abramelin, Ars Paulina, etc., etc., etc.) or seek some kind of coherent initiation (harder than it sounds).
It bears repeating, nobody's going to bestow wisdom, only better tools for climbing the mountain yourself.
You're on a sheer wall of rock and have looked down. Stop. Don't do that shit. Hammer in your next fuckin' piton and climb your lazy ass up the goddamn plateau....that you know will only end with another sheer rock wall, and so forth, until the summit is attained.
I dunno, if you wanna start interfacing with advanced concepts, try David Chaim Smith's Kabbalistic Mirror of Genesis and maybe Blazing Dew of Stars if it piques your interest.

Hard for me to do unless I'm 100% lucid, which is oddly rare. I can often get to the point of changing details but rarely can reroute the course of a dream or bust out the hexagrams. My best advice is: Keep a record, look for trends, and don't drink any entity's kool-aid.

thanks bud, i'm kinda gobsmacked by the thing, which kind of hijacked a lucid dream i'd fallen into and turned it into something like a 40x salvia trip for no apparent reason, although it kind of hinted obliquely at being my HGA and doing it to castigate for my lukewarm belief/practice.

Easiest one would be yoga. Do yoga for an hour every morning and or evening. Perform a larger ritual perhaps once a month or so, you'll find the time.
As for the system, I'd recommend either Hermeticism or your traditional cultures mystical system. Its easier to balance the Work and personal life in a healthy way when your Work isn't full of super edgy symbolism, at least in my opinion.
>>17683816

Do you have any friends or family who are into this stuff? If not, joining some Order might be really helpful. It might give your practice a bit more structure. Also, being able to discuss some experiences and thoughts about this stuff is great.

"No, you must have the intention in mind.
I really reccommend brushing up on what the demon you are gonna summon is like.
Like when I summoned President Buer, we had nice chats about herbs and zodiacs and about politics. Demons are hyper-autistic and know all there is to know about certain things. They can move through those things and do stuff.
Really though, consider it as talking to an investor. What do they get from you? Why should they risk their name to help you out?
In my case, Buer seems to like my obsessively researching nature and tendency to weigh all options, even if it requires taking three cups of coffee up the arse. Or drinking your own urine.
Demons hate inefficiency for the sake of "eww gross" in my experience, but I haven't worked with them all, only a few, and Buer as the foremost.
To this end, I make my sacrifice to buer, anybody wanna get demonic teachings about health?"
Man you sound like an edgy teenager, all final fantasy 8 and that. Check out that urinephilia.

Hey guys,
Recently i've taken an interest in Magick and have read Initiation into Hermetics. What would you recommend as the next step reading wise. Is Crowley really essential reading?
>>17684828
I've a relatively low opinion of IIH, but if it gets you where you're going, fine by me.
>Is AC essential?
Depends on what you're getting into. If you're interested in the 'high magick' tradition from Golden Dawn forward, he's impossible to avoid. If you're looking to reconstruct the old Hermetic/Neoplatonic systems, AC can LIKELY be avoided in most cases.

This might some like a silly question but: How many of you have seen tangable benefits from practicing magick?
Not increased awareness and sprituality, actual physical benefits. Like becoming stronger, richer and more powerful. Have you cursed or blessed people and seen the results? Have you asked for something and got it? I'd like to hear some stories.
>>17685283
No, I've never gained anything material from my use of magic. I've only gained a small bit of happiness as a result of using magic to end pretty much any and all suffering I've ever encountered.
does anyone have any information about ancestral magic? I feel like I have a strong vein of ancestral power with me that's given some guidance and luck throughout my life, and want to know if there is a way I can tap into this force respectfully.
I am full-blooded Canadian native, my great grandmother was a healer and my grandfather a well respected man in his community. I have little contact with my biological family so I can't ask them.
I've been looking for how to cast love spells on the astral realm, any idea of where to start?

>>17685365
>asking 4chan for advice regarding respecting native traditions
hoo boy
I don't know why you think we'd be a better resource for information about your ancestors' spiritual practices than your tribal officials. If you don't know who they are, Google them. They might even be happy their young people are taking an interest. If you weren't removed from your family because they're dangerous people, reestablish contact and ask them about it as well. If you were, shit, man, that sucks.
>>17685365
>little contact with my biological family
Everyone from all eras cares about their children. I don't know why but that's just how it is. It's rare for a respected man to have their entire lineage blessed by the people that respect them, so it's unlikely that your "power" comes from that side of the family. Healing powers used to be very prized, so it's likely you still have a decent miracle in you. If you sell your abilities, you'll lose them. The rate varies per healer and how much they charge for their healing services, but generally you can burn through an entire bloodline's blessing be selling it.
Bloodline magic spawns from familial bonds. Your lineage will only exist so long as you maintain it. If you stop caring, disown your family, or otherwise sell out your lineage then the karma can be lethal. It's not uncommon to be killed, have the lost blood recovered or bought back, and have your family carry on the lineage you tried to break. As far as your ancestry goes, Canada sure isn't known for magic, but there's nothing stopping it from building up there either.

>>17685365
I'm most likely about an eighth native on both sides by my best reckoning and the more I look, the more spooky shit I find in the family tree. If Jodorowsky and his jewry is to be believed, we have a psychogenological root to many aspects of our personality and abilities. Your bloodline merely highlights potential. Seeing as how I watched Zootopia last night, go watch that and relate the moral to this.
Ancestral magic isn't a thing you respectfully tap into, per se. Certain aspects of it (like ancestor worship) can be treated with traditional respect, but bloodlines like mine are more about what you have been given and are very, very good at regardless of your wit or will to actually do it. Goddamn mystics left and right and few of them what I would call anything approaching "good".
It's all about learning what is there and how to tap into it. Learn your nature and make of it what you want. Use it how you want. Go watch zootopia. It didn't feel like a waste of time like when I made myself watch deadpool in hopes of proving my intuition wrong.

Hey omg, im fairly familiar with magick and different forms of it. Had some experience with goetia, a lot with mongolian shamanism, lots of sympathetic magic and sigil work. Im wondering what spirit, possibly goethic would be good to help me transition male to female? Id love to hear some advice cause honestly, im sorta lazy and interested what you think. Are goetics even a good idea for this? Maybe i should go with a servitor, or go with a different system altogether.
>>17685479
Transitioning costs money. Goets could help with that.
>>17685479

Don't sell healing powers- got it.
The healer was my Grandfather's Mum. I personally don't know I have abilities to heal or even abilities to sell, but I will definitely avoid commercial success or fame regarding my background then.
I am adopted, but I have a little contact with my biological family. I haven't disowned them, but they don't respond to my messages or anything... My Grandfather showed some interest in my life but passed away years ago. I often find myself praying to him because it feels like the right thing to do.
A lot of Canada's natives have been stamped out, and the people left have been repressed by a ton of social issues like mental illness, addictions and poverty... and many traditions (possibly stories of magic?) were passed down orally and have since been lost or forgotten. A few tribes like the Cree, Haida and Inuit are relatively known to the mainstream but my tribe is lesser known and in an wilder part of Canada.

Well no—you can. I'm just saying that once you sell them, you've sold them and you don't have them anymore. It's a simple trade.

So how do you think your family tree affects you? Are you saying you have mystic potential?
You are saying that we all come pre-loaded with some affinity based on our bloodline. Where does that even begin though. I mean, if your affinity is mysticism, then there had to have been a 'first mystic' to start that within your tree.
>>17685550
>Is there a way to build up on this magic?
Yes. Bloodline magic persists so long as a single living relative is alive. Depending on the terms and intent of your adoption, you might be part of your biological bloodline or you might be part of your adopted bloodline. In the best case scenario you'll suffer the benefits of both bloodlines.
Also: Being from a lesser known tribe means that your bloodline forked fairly recently. Whatever led to the separation—whether it be innate power or a grudge or anything else—lives on in you today. It's less diluted since the tribe is/was small, so there's a decent chance that you can cash in on another's inheritance.
Or not cash in on, but you get the point.

You need the deep magics of the 'Amazon kindle' or the 'Kobo touch'. Mail me five bitcoin, or three monthly paymens of two bitcoin, and I will teach you to master these arcane sorceries.

Better publicity/more deniability. They take credit for anything that happens, even if none of them did anything to meaningfully affect it beyond encouraging someone else to do it.

Be careful what you wish for. Great tragedies are great works of art, and art cannot exist without suffering.

Not to mention /pol/ is focused on large-scale work. I don't care who the president is as long as I get what I want, and I do.
>>17686111
That too, but if we measure by personal standards (the ones the actually matter) then /pol/ is actually a lot worse off than we tend to be.

I take credit for things purely for political reasons. I only ever very rarely take credit for something that I've actually done.
Is there any good material that covers the void/un-being/that which is not? Something like Apep
