ITT: Anything you want to know about magick in general, or specifically the "dark arts", I will tell you, to the best of my ability.
Do you follow the dogma of any practices, or is this school of magick more akin to a chaos philosophy?
Which house where you in at Hogwartz?
>>17835617
I follow many dogmas of many practices.
Belief is a tool, so I guess you could say it's a chaos philosophy.
>>17835620
Slytherin, obviously. :^)
>>17835626
Is this some amalgamation of LHP occultism then? Mind listing some of the practices you follow?
Good job brother always make yourself a resource
>>17835636
Specifically, I prefer dank luciferian/satanism type stuff myself, but that's not the only way to get stuff done.
I just prefer a 218 sorta vibe.
Now, that's not to say that the fundamentals of magick are any different for anybody, regardless of what specialty path they choose.
The bare bones are the same for all of us.
What demons should I try to summon to increase my skill in mathematics and geometry?
I want to write a theory of quantum gravity.
>>17835611
Have you tried any "spells/rituals"? how did it go?
>>17835644
I intend to.
Is the Book of Smokeless Fire legit?
>>17835666
Quite a few over the years.
Some work, some don't.
That's how it goes.
I'm not an armchair academic, I live it on the daily.
Looking to get into occult. Where should I start?
>>17835669
I've not read that specific text, but basically maybe yet.
The "smokeless flame" is the "fire of magic", the "secret/sacred fire". This is a common theme in many works on this subject.
It's that thing you do when you want something to happen, and that pressure/heat builds behind your eyes in your head, then you let it out.
It's that stuff.
>>17835680
Strait up 101 beginner level, I know I'm going to get a lot of flack either way on this, but I personally would recommend just quiet meditations to become aware of the weird subtleties of the magical aspects of the world around you.
Just strait up sit for a while and LISTEN, ya dig?
That sort of exercise should point you in the right direction as to what you're into in that regard.
i have long been interested in the dark arts, unfortunately, i have yet to take the full plunge into the world of magic, i have had minor initiatic experiences, psychedelic trips that brought me beyond the veil of ego, but something inserts itself over nothing and now, years down the line, i find myself little improved by my experimentation, i have long sought a partner in my magical journey, some sort of qt mystic to guide me, but i feel i have wasted enough time waiting, i want to perform true magic, i wish to summon angels and demons, i want to ascend (or descend) into a transcendent state, to be perfectly honest, i hardly meditate, i am a NEET and usually i spend all day drinking and smoking and shitposting and netflixing and chilling, as such, you can say i am in dire need of self-initiation, my only fear is that i might be schizophrenic, i have been on antipsychotics for several years following a couple trips where i lost the plot for a bit of time, i would like to get off them but my doctor says i need to quit the ganja first, so, yes, i suppose i should start meditating more first, but then what ritual should i try once i have done that? is there any book you recommend? anything easy and effective? or hard and effective, i don't mean to sound lazy... i need to totally transform myself. currently i am weak. i am stupid. i am an addict. i want to become empowered. i want to be strong of will. i want it all. and i want it now. i don't wanna die without going all the way down the rabbit hole. i find grimoires intriguing but the equipment usually seems absurd, should i follow it to the letter? i suppose i am biased towards a chaotic approach but i'm kinda bored of that and never really found sigils all that exciting
>>17835663
>math and geometry
You'd be hard pressed to find a good demon that DIDN'T hand out math and geometry like candy.
Somehow I don't think that's what you really want, though.
If it was, you'd be up in a university of math, not here.
What do you really want?
>>17835738
Want want want.
Stop wanting and start being.
You can make that choice.
Right now, addict or not, schizophrenic or not.
No one said being a wizard was easy.
You can literally just choose the path you want to walk, that's all up to you.
>>17835738
To be more specific, magic isn't something that's found in old dusty books, magic is in your blood.
"Spells" and such are more like scripts to automate annoying shit you have to do frequently.
>>17835760
ya, i suppose, i re-started journaling last week, and have been cutting back on drinking, still wanna (should be being, ya ya) perform a rite, but i also have a problem with ebooks and wanna buy a physical book to go on but feel overwhelmed by the amount of magical literature and not knowing what's bullshit
my plan is to buy a book when i get money next month and then spend the rest of my money getting materials and then try performing the ritual on my birthday next month
seems like a fitting change from being to becoming
>>17835774
Don't get hung up on the details of rituals and shit.
The point of that kind of stuff is to act as a shorthand for you, if it's not doing that, it's a poor ritual.
The magic is in you, you don't need money to buy it.
>>17835768
i get that
"In seeking the Quintessence of Magick we must seek within ourselves, as unique stars shining within the Body of the Void - shining with the Single Flame of Magical Power. We must not look further than the Present Moment, nor strive towards an ever-distant Idol of Perfection; rather we must grasp the Secret NOW. For the Arcanum of the Quintessential Current lies within our flesh, in the matrix of our present incarnation. Its Mysteries permeate the crimson tides of our blood with the theophanic quickening of the Spirit. Within the Vessel of the Body Entire the Primal Atavism of the Magician is thus enshrined: the Fire of the Elder Gods is set ablaze within the adytum of Man. In the very moment of its self-realisation this arcanum transmits the spark of the initiating atavism, its power reveals the nativity of the Eternal Mage."
etc etc
but it's still hard to internalize
i think i need some scripts to start, training wheels before moving onto balancing on my own
>>17835791
>hard to internalize
Seems to me you've got it ass-backwards.
Magic isn't something you "internalize".
It's already in there.
The whole point is to "externalize" it.
If we can't thrust it out into the world to cause change, literally what is the point of studying it?
You're going the wrong direction there maybe.
>>17835797
true, i say i wish to change myself but really i wish for a gf -- maybe i should message my tinder matches or something
>>17835786
ya, suppose i'll go through my bookshelf tonight and start thinking about a custom ritual based off what makes sense to me hopefully my books aren't too theoretical
>>17835748
don't fuck with me, wizard
just tell me which occult gods to worship to obtain omniscience so i can invent immortality
>>17835816
You do have to put in a bit of effort yourself.
You can't expect things to be handed to you on a silver platter, even with magic.
>>17835829
Which occult gods do you like?
Is there any cool shit you can do?
>>17835866
Define cool shit.
>>17835870
Something physical, or mental that would make me shit myself. IE: fireballs, mind reading. Idk, something that particularly fascinated you.
>>17835888
There's more than one thing that'd make you shit yourself, but to answer your question, yes, shit is real as real is real.
Fireballs and mind-reading are paltry cantrips that happen before breakfast.
I rather enjoy rousing the dead.
people alwase say magic is in your blood how do you know and how can you gain or improve your magical energy
Should I keep jerking off or go nofap?
>>17835937
It's like, you have to get a feel for it.
I'm sorry, I'm not so good at describing it.
Like, you gotta just sit down and decide you want to be able to perceive the influence of magic upon the world.
Then you can see it.
"Detect magic" should be everyone's first cantrip.
>>17835948
thanks
>>17835945
Jerk it with a purpose.
Every time you're fixin' to come, envision exactly what or who it is you'd like to be coming in.
Then go out and look for that who or what in the real world.
Not even fucking around on this one.
>>17835948
I've alwase been a violent minded person
>>17835966
Then I guess you're in the right thread.
This is the _SCHOOL OF DARK ARTS_, after all.
>>17835983
Then I feel right at home
>>17836004
Well then, what aspect of the dark arts shall we discuss?
>>17836007
I am a very newfag I've been reading up on everywons post but I've learned nothing but I do have a book on black magic I might read
>>17836007
Is there any dangerous aspect of black magic like failed rituals etc.
>>17836030
Do you at least have a wand?
I know that sounds silly as fuck, but just hear me out.
A wand is more than a stick you point at things with. It's a piece of "you", it's the piece you figured you'd use as a "bridge" between this world and your's.
Not to say there's no other way to do that but with a wand, just that a wand is very efficient in this task.
it's more than just a foci for casting spells, it's a foci for you yourself.
>>17836035
Yea, you'll die if you fuck up some serious shit.
lel, dude, what do you think we're talking about here, exactly?
Do you expect you'd hurt yourself with a powersaw, or a mac truck if you fucked around with it?
Magic is pointless if it's not really actually useful.
Useful implies dangerous by definition.
Let me then say a few words about INTENT.
What is INTENT? What is intention?
In this context, INTENT is what you truly feel and think, in your "heart of hearts".
This is what really matters for spellcasting.
Reality is the most autistic motherfucker you will ever meet, it so does not care one iota about the petty little lies you tell yourself or others.
This is what Crowley called the "true will".
"Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law" doesn't mean what you think it does.
It doesn't mean "do whatever the fuck you want, fucking whatever".
It means "Do you what you have to do".
The "true will" is not just your whims or desires, the "true will" is the... the vibe of your life, the flow of your stream, the whatever that's just "you".
That's the true will.
To "do what thou wilt" means to go with the flow, to do what you were meant to do, whatever that is.
Another important concept we must now discuss is that of "assemblage point".
This is a silly word for " 'where am i in me right now?' ".
You could get all into chakras at this point and whatnot, but basically, "you" as in "your mind/your perception" is where ever you tell it to be.
That's one of the key differences between wizards and muggles.
We know where our minds are at, they don't.
This skill allows for everything from simple acts of clairvoyance to extravagant acts of crazy shit.
Well then, now that we are armed with all of this crap, how shall we put it to use?
We'll need a fuel.
Mana. Raw magic power.
This is a difficult concept to describe, but perhaps you'll know what I mean.
Some memories of places have more to them than regular memories.
Some memories have... RAW POWER.
Oh snap, it's the same shit. There ya go.
What then of the actual act of casting?
It's quite simple.
>1: Decide with intent what you intend to cast
>2: Begin building up the construct of the spell, sort of like building a thing out of legos or stacking a house of cards or whatever, I dunno, just build the fucking spell and have it ready to go.
>3: Call forth the appropriate amount of mana.
>4: Channel said mana into the spell construct as you unleash it. (seriously, this is the part where you let the fuck go of the thing.)
>5: Go chillax because now ur a fuckin wixard
telekinesis how?
>>17836337
Start small.
Don't strain yourself.
When it happens, it doesn't feel like a strain, or anything like that. it sort of catches you by surprise.
I'm not sure how to say that other than just lightly put your mind into the thing you're trying to fuck with, but not in a forceful rape-y way.
You have to be friendly about it, if that makes sense.
I swear you guys on /x/ are fug'n crazy, stop making magick threads and post more aliums geez
How bad does getting whacked over the head with a magic staff hurt?
>>17836346
Depends on it's damage bonus.
Don't forget to have fun and not take yourself too seriously.
Dance once in a while or something.

>>17835645
I am very interested in the philosophy of current 218. I have always yearned for true spirituality and a return back to what was before even God. However, I have no real experience in magick and don't even know where to begin. Is there anywhere I can start?
>>17836406
>>17836406
There is.
One step at a time like anything else.
In this particular case, you might find utility in some simple "getting used to the dark" kind of works.
Anyone can watch a sunset, but there's another way to watch a sunset.
This current feels fucking creepy intense weird.
That's how you know it's working right.
When the sun is setting, there's a moment there where you can choose to really step into the dark...
>>17836428
I actually have done that many times before. Last year I used to go out in the middle of nowhere away from all the lights of town around twilight. I would stay there in the pitch black for about 3 hours at a time. The first few times as the sun would set and the sky would get darker and darker, there was a sense of fear and dread. After a couple weeks, the fear turned into peace. Was I doing it right?
>>17836443
Yea, das it mang.
lol, like exactly.
>>17836451
So what's the next step after that?
>>17836465
WAIT TILL THE DAWN
>>17836465
>>17836465
Well first you need to go yankee candle and get the 12 oz honey scented candle, you can get the larger ones but i dont advise it for your first attempt. Then you return to the woods and light the candle, after it was burned for a few minutes insert it into your anus. Now theres a special technique to suck in air with you anus that requires practice, especially when you have the scented candle up there. But once you master it you can use your scented anal breeze to summon bees. Then directed those bees against your foes, and thats how you become a battle wizard. Once you level up you can upgrade to wasp by having the bees colonize your anus, eventually it will attract a wasp swarm you can harness. Although while more combat effective you'll lose your free honey bonus.
>>17835611
you go down. see your self going as deep as you can. then go deeper. You are a nobody a thing existing. your base nature is what your dealing with here. not the enrichment you get from above but the cunning and gile you get from below. It's dark. Infinite darkness. So light your fire in the cold of night so it can burn brighter than all the others.
>>17836499
Did you read my post, its got to be honey scented or it wont attract the bees and youll just be shoving things up you butt for no reason.
>>17835611
>a fucking wand
>>17836337
Impossible unless you carry a shitload of Antediluvian blood. Which you don't.
>>17836517
what are you even doing anon caring around koolaid and pretending? carrying around lamb's blood you found somewhere. what are even doing anon? help me shoot lasers with my third eye so can get pussy.
So what's the difference between dark magic and chaos magic?
>>17837191
Chaos is using wytcha children's rhymes to summon goku and have him ride you like a loa to get your kundalini to rise.
Dark magic is the path of transgression rather than the usual of abstention. They theoretically lead to the same place, but using sex and drugs and rock and roll to get there faster isn't without serious pitfalls. You walk the razors edge and whether you fall or not, you will be cut.
>>17837606
This is a great explanation of that difference.
Kudos anon.
>>17837606
>>17837611
So both fuck you up but for dark magic you get fucked less? Or you get more out of it? Sorry I'm new to this stuff
>>17837677
Well, any kind of magic can harm you if you seriously fuck it up, but with dark magic, we don't have a problem paying for stuff with our own blood.
Most types of magic, chaos included, don't necessarily cause damage to the user when wielded correctly.
Dark magic does. That's just par for the course.
>>17837690
Is it worth the sacrifice? What makes dark magic better then other magics or if it's not better what's the appeal?
>>17837712
It's sexy.
>>17837731
Well shit I'm sold
>>17837712
>Is it worth the sacrifice?
>Is LIFE worth the sacrifice?
>>17837769
What I mean is if you don't innately feel the appeal of the dark arts, they aren't for you.
>>17837795
I see what you're saying. Do certain people have a stronger connection to dark magic then others?
>dark arts faggots.
Chaos magician here, you guys are memes.
>>17837821
You have those that are afraid, those that have a morbid curiosity and want to face their fear, and edgelords who aren't even trying to transgress their own nature. For the edgelords, it's like church or beating off. For the rest, it's like beating off to /d/ for the first time.
>>17837886
What if you're considered a "damaged" individual? Would that have a positive or negative effect on your magic?
>>17837914
I suppose for "dark arts", that would be a boon.
>>17837914
Be more specific. If you're schizophrenic, none of this is for you. If you have a massive trauma you haven't worked through, this shit ain't for you. If you have oneitis over a girl, /fit/ might be for you.
The left hand path is for those of sound mind and body looking for shortcuts through a field of razors, as if the right hand weren't painful enough. Otherwise it's where the chronically morose find solace in a world that doesn't reflect them. I'm not too hot on either so I took the third path.
>>17837965
What's the third path? Also I'm bipolar
I want to get into the dark arts I haven't done much research but where do you suggest I start?
>>17837982
Mahamudra. You are already enlightened, you just have to realize it. Mostly by being some combination of crust punk and peacock who can just take poisonous thoughts and actions and turn them into fuel. It's a path towards the total acceptance of right now. It's a more tantric cousin of zen.
From what I've heard from other meditators, mindfulness doesn't really fix bipolar symptoms, but does make them much easier to ride by accepting the moment and not being subject to them and in some cases can mellow it out a little. Wouldn't go off the meds, they sure as hell don't.
You all learn magic when you are toddlers. This LANGUAGE is magic and words have power.
So is math and geometry.
Haven't you ever wondered why these words contain so many different definitions?
>>17838025
Cool so I'll probably have a natural talent for it. Never thought my disorder would actually be good for something
>>17838070
It'll certainly give you something to work with. I have trouble finding good instruction online because it's all about bland relationships or wanting a new car or a dog dying and not how to accept and overcome what leads to and comes from a unipolar depressive episode or that you crank it to weird porn and feel bad that you don't feel bad about it or that...yeah.
Go find some dzogchen or bon instruction on youtube and do some guided meditation. Don't go at it too hard because it isn't easy and you can burn out and feel like shit. Just sitting and focusing on the now is harder than you would think.
Can I summon weed with dark magic?
>>17838157
Yes, actually.
Shiva is the guy you'll want to see about that.
>>17838157
To add,
Summoning physical substances really isn't all that hard. You just have to know EXACTLY what it is you want to get.
Otherwise someone with a weird sense of humor is liable to give you something... interesting...
>>17835611
Any spell to win the love of a girl that i have 2 dates with her and then she stop talking to me then had a date, after that she said she didnt want a boyfriend and after that she get one
Sorry for my shitty english
If you have a book for this i would apreciate
Ok, so it's time to talk about the difference between "nigromancy" and "necromancy", as what was once one specific term, has morphed into new terms, and this is very confusing.
In the modern usage, "nigromancy" is divination via consulting the angry spirits of the dead, and "necromancy is in general, works within the current of death, up to and including re-animation of corpses via projecting a sliced off bit of the caster's mind and soul into the 'dead' body.
So in this sense, if you use the term in the old way, //nigromancy/necromancy//, then all of this is in the same category, but if you would prefer a bit more refined categorization, this is the technical difference between the two in the modern usage of the terms.
>>17838289
There's like a gazillion fish in the sea, and you're a bloody fisherman.
Don't get hung up on one slut.
NOW, onto potions class.
What is a potion and what separates a potion from regular chemistry?
The application of mana by a wizard to a chemical reaction.
This is what makes a potion a potion.
In general, you'd begin by mixing ingredients much as you would for a normal chemical reaction to make your "coffee" or "tea", but at the crucial moment, you apply magic.
Depending upon the individual potion in question, this moment is somewhere in the range of just before boiling, or perhaps in the supercritical range for some specialized things.
You can feel it, there's a little 'tick' where the cauldron goes from hard matter you can't fuck with to 'soft' matter you can.
Then you do your thing and that's pretty much that.
I've attempted every conventional method of astral travel and projection and of seeing astral imagery with nearly no success

IS PALM READING REAL
>>17838649
>hacks
The pedals of the Queen Elizabeth Rose.
collect them, dry them to a warm brown colour, grind them into a fine powder, and drink them as a tea.
The "hook moment" for this particular potion is about 190F, give or take.
There's nothing to it.
>>17838655
thanks a bunch
also hacks is just the easiest way to explain it
spiritual backdoors and shit like that
>>17838659
It's a good term.
A hack is a hack is a hack, no matter what field it's it.
>>17835611
Why doesn't it work?
Why is there no proof?
>>17838653
Yea, but as far as divinations go, it's got shit resolution.
Even tea leaves are better than that shit.

I could be wrong, though, I'm not super familiar with Honorius's stuff.
It seems to be some kind of seeing incantation.
anyone got any meme incantations to fuck around with?
>>17839345
>the wand chooses the wizard
As far as physically crafting/refining a wand, that's pretty strait forward. A bit of carpentry and such. That's the easy part.
In regards to >>17836040, I'm honestly not sure how common this practice is in modern schools of magic, as some schools use an athame for about half their stuff.
I don't want to have to carry extra tools that all do the same shit.
As far as actual utility, it's an efficiency increase in that it reduces your need to use extra power to manifest a spell.
I guess you could say it's a conduit, or a path of less resistance or something like that.
>>17839989
To do what?
Djinns and magic aren't things one should play around with guys..
Even though some People do use magic, it's strongly prohibited for any Human being to use magic. And there is also punishment for having used a djinn After Death when one is Lying in his grave.
>>17840122

In that case, you might be interested in invoking loa.

>>17839410
I haven't, you're just impatient.
I'm no spring chicken anymore, I need my beauty sleep.
Ah, so then the question naturally arises:
If applied magic is the practice of channeling mana through mentally built constructs, and mana comes from certain special types of memories, is it possible to purposefully create these types of memories for later use?
Why yes it is!
The first thing to understand is that it's more like growing a crop than it is machining a part.
The first step would be to plant the crop, this is the part where, for a lack of better terms, you find a particular time and place that's just OOZING mana, and you "anchor" yourself to that particular point in spacetime, so that anytime you REALLY RECALL that memory, it's just as good as when you were there the first time.
The second step is to let it "grow" or "age", however you prefer to envision the process.
It's just got to sit a while and not get fucked with.
The third step is of course the harvest.
It's important to note that unless you just totally BTFO of one of these via rapid overuse (sort of like an "overheating" scenario in machinery), then it's reusable after a suitable refractory period. lik ur dik

If you don't mind kabbalistic trappings, Israel Regardie gives a pretty precise treatise.

>>17842433
>If you don't mind kabbalistic trappings, Israel Regardie gives a pretty precise treatise.
The thing is, I know what those are, but most aforementioned writers are Slavs paraphrasing Gurdjieff; and none of them are correct about the sociological or historical basis in source material transliteration.
It reads like they took the mathematics out of translations so Zorastrianism could appear to have archaeological importance.
The work is constructed from a strain of racism that pervaded near eastern studies as the ottoman empire waned. That spite is a crippling disability which precludes magick from academia.
So I am asking if anyone else has noticed that discrepancy from respectable science.
>>17842500
Oh, I see what you're saying now.
Why would we want magic shewn to the world, exactly?
Seems to me the current setup is just fine, and has worked since time immemorial.
>>17842515
>Why would we want magic shewn to the world, exactly?
Because otherwise it is indifferent from playing pretend and thus it makes you look silly.
>Seems to me the current setup is just fine, and has worked since time immemorial.
No, the current setup is about 1 century old, based on the age of the authors and their books.
>>17842535
>makes you look silly

do people born on halloween have special traits magically or supernatural
>>17842664
Eh, it's more of a thing where the 'influences' or 'vibe' of the place and time feels more familiar to the caster, so it's sort of like a bonus for that particular type of stuff.
Not so much that a particular time or place makes spellcasters.
>>17842355
I do not believe there has been any serious scientific studies of magic. Jung kinda comes close tho. Most magic, like mysticism, seems like it would fall under psychology insofar as it is internally focused. External effects have been claimed by many but external effects would be hard to measure accurately due to complexity and chaos.
>>17842500
I think Regardie is a Russian Jew and not a Slav. He's also a student of Crowley and not Gurdjeff. I'm especially losing you here at this part about removing mathematics from translations and how this has to do with racism and Zoroastrianism. If you want people to notice this "discrepancy" you're going to have to be a lot more clear.
>>17842535
The current setup is far older than a century. Crowley, for example, was indebted to writers like Levi and Agrippa as well as the grimoire traditions. These authors are in turn indebted to the Greeks and Egyptians. If anything, magic goes back to the dawn of civilization and Babylon. Whether this speaks to its truth or humanity's incessant desire to be deceived is a question which has yet to be adequately answered by science (to the best of my knowledge, occultism has never really been lab-tested to the satisfaction of both occultists and scientists [isn't that what your first post was getting at?]).
I hate when faggots pretend to know shit about the elite 218

I just hit on a shitload of women and end up getting a different above average to hot girl every week.
people are going to call me a liar, but it's pretty retarded to think that getting laid is a big deal or is difficult at all. most people should be able to pull it off
>>17842946
getting one new slut every week sounds nice...
but wouldn't you rather have one faithful dependable slut that you can creampie multiple times every day of the week?
'tis the dream for me at least

People were saying they were sellouts when they had their website up and were at the peak of their ''popularity''
but considering the fact that they took the site down and faded into obscurity that suggests that they aren't trying hard to be making money or be famous
I still have no idea what you are talking about
I just find it disgraceful when people are claiming to respect 218 but sound like total clowns

>>17842987
Just take my advice. if you are going to be talking about Satanism you should stop with the whole ''I'm a Satanist but i'm also cute and funny and silly to xD'' bullshit
Yeah, Satanism is about being an individual but I know for a fact all the most respectable Satanic musicians and authors have no respect for that kind of bullshit

>>17842832
>I do not believe there has been any serious scientific studies of magic.
That is a simple and direct answer to my question. I thank you dearly for this.
>Jung kinda comes close tho.
I've read and translated original Jung, and his main difficulty is transliterating Taoism out of Chinese, into German. You cannot precisely transfer concepts between two constructed languages.
I give him credit because he used what knowledge he could to prescribe medical marijuana while Freud was the world's first drug-dealing cokehead.
>Most magic, like mysticism, seems like it would fall under psychology insofar as it is internally focused.
Technically, it is parapsychology- but that is the societal problem: Psychologists ignore fundamental science and focus on empiricism to the point of epistemological fallacy.
>I think Regardie is a Russian Jew and not a Slav.
He was from northwestern Ukraine, which is a slavic ethnoregion. It is wrong to claim he was Russian, therefore. I do not want to make any assertion about the religious background of Mr. Regardie; but students should note that Ashekenazi judaism is geographically closer to Zoroastrianism than anything in the old testament.
>He's also a student of Crowley and not Gurdjeff
You are splitting hairs over what it means to learn: when someone provides information, that is enough to make that person a teacher and the recipient thusly a student.
I have read their Yazidi, Coptic, and Tamil references in the original words. The languages are beautiful, and the grammar is similar to Mayan in that arithmetic is fundamental to sentence construction. When you take that feature out, you are left with: Zoroastrianism; Thelema; Hinduism or Santeria; respectively.
Because Yazidi have subject to genocide for a century since Gurdjieff, it is wrong not to cry racism.

I'm not much on precise record keeping, but my favorite enchantment of all time is a "hat of dark".
Sort of like Konstantinos's "bag of dark", but ya know, a hat.
The purpose of such an enchanted item is to be able to call up a little "sphere of darkness" of you happen to be in need of it when it's not practical to find actual darkness.
Anyone who hasn't read the Liber Azerate doesn't really take the current 218 seriously
no excuses.

hmm. well, i have cheated in the past when in relationships so i certainly see the appeal but at the moment i like to fantasize about an ideal relationship where there would be no need for cheating because my physical/emotional/spiritual needs were completely fulfilled

>The current setup is far older than a century.
You are leaving out several millennia in your account. Most people do, and that is a central point of criticism from academia.
>Crowley, for example, was indebted to writers like Levi and Agrippa as well as the grimoire traditions.
There should be a long string of citations which should connect those authors- unless there is not a tradition, but instead revisionism.
>These authors are in turn indebted to the Greeks and Egyptians.
There are specific people whom should be thanked. It is a sign of racism not to recall their names.
>If anything, magic goes back to the dawn of civilization and Babylon.
My point is that science is actually the tradition which does so, and scholars are being racist when they assume that Middle Eastern astronomers were not testing hypothesis 5,000 years ago.
>Whether this speaks to its truth or humanity's incessant desire to be deceived is a question which has yet to be adequately answered by science
My answer is that people can have a desire to deceive or be deceive and that is the adaptation which has to be excised for science to take place.
>to the best of my knowledge, occultism has never really been lab-tested to the satisfaction of both occultists and scientists
It has been tested, by the students of Gurdjieff who became dictators; and the results are the most absolutely horrific things in modern history.

all of those needs can be and should be fulfilled without a relationship
a relationship with a witch to practice sex magick on can be good but mosts self proclaimed female occultists are full of shit (as the men are, but even worse i find) and shouldn't be taken too seriously
so i would recommend not holding your breath on finding a female who isn't a total poser
i've been getting a few women into magick, but i can't see them being as serious as my male occultist friends
>>17843210
If you can't find any try teaching girls about magick if you can sense that they probably won't be scared off
through trial and error it shouldn't be that hard to find girls who are at least intrigued
>>17843215
And girls will pretend to be into it just to fuck you or as a way to try to get you to like them so keep that in mind
>>17843084
>>17843199
Forgive me if my first response was ignorant or racist. You're obviously more studied than me. I can't even imagine learning all those languages on my own. My knowledge of the occult is severely limited. I pick up insights here and there but I find the reading dry and don't practice. I know only English and thus may be guilty of reading translations without transliteration as you seem to put it. Oh well. Color me intrigued though! Science is the tradition? Why must magic be excised? I have long suspected the marriage of the two (science and magic) in ancient society. Tell me more about these horrific experiments.
I feel like we are encountering somewhat of a language barrier here but I'd love to hear more from you.
>>17843210
>all of those needs can be and should be fulfilled without a relationship

Entry level things have been studied.
Meditation is widely studied and you can easily find reliable and proven results from JSTOR or other archives. Meditation is now considered perfectly within the realm of science, but they still don't understand it perfectly and it was entirely occult before they bothered to accept it.
>>17835611
What is the view of Lightworks or Energy work to all 'ye Occultists?
Is it something you just only use to aid your dark arts? Is it like the idea of the Devil to a Christian?
Most Grimoire type lit. I read over really is just like forcing ESP and letting some older source (which is usually dead at this point) guide your subconscious.
What is the difference between these things and simple meditation?
>>17835611
Did you know to see future you don't need magic ?
Things you need to see future a litlle bit and see events like 5 min before it happend.
1# Emotional state must be correct that depend sometimes on character
but mostly i prefer use one of this options: where i think my life is in danger.
2#Yeah future don't come from your emotions it's just something to power up brain you need training just try to say in your mind obvius things when you watch movie or in real life watch everything.
3# don't panic when you get emotional in danger just think like focus on seaing future to stop danger to your life even small stupid iracional thing can be explained really dangerus.
4#Profit in 10 s cases sometimes. you can't control it yet.
5# To make focus on your eye and events you can see events in your area.
6# to enchance your brain power input and output of that emotion power is simple
input of power more emotions mashup is good too (remeber life in danger)
output well it's harder you need stop emotions by your will i use this "My desire more important than need to be humane in situation.
7# play with emotions not only of aspect of danger to your life now.
Try control them in most of cases and fast give up on control to give yourself break.
8# Sometimes in some cases people stop fell anything, like emphaty try them ask yourself why i need be more emotional anwser: When you fell emotions you gain bonus knowledge from events deppend of how strong this emotion for you is, so when you don't fell anything you lose knowledge (don't say i don't need it, everything you expierence in many ways give you power of understanding, when you understand you learn, when you don't learn)
and for example when you are angry you gain bonus adrenalin, in sadness you focus on more creativ things, in hapiness you auto repair yourself in biological and mental way.
>>17843665
>energy work
If we're talking about the same thing, the yea, that sort of thing is a tool like any other tool.
>difference between these and simple meditation
I'd personally classify a meditation as 'simple' when it doesn't really do anything beyond clearing the mind or something.
I haven't said anything about divination have I?
Well then, divinations class, here's the 101.
Looking at the same time/place/event over and over in rapid succession is a futile effort, don't waste your time.
Don't analyse a reading regardless of the method for a little bit of time. Depending on how serious business it is, give it a few minutes, or a few days or something.
You're looking to retain only the most pure, unadulterated impression you receive. The initial 'truthful impression' is VERY fast. Like a single frame out of place flashing on a movie screen. If you fiddle with that frame too much, you'll rot it, mutating it into noisy bullshit with your "analytical overlay", the process where by the mind tries to fill gaps and create context when it's confused.
For divinations, you'll want to avoid triggering this automatic process as much as possible.
How to break a curse?
Like, you're getting good grades and your fellow students don't like it and they unconsciously curse you to get bad grades kind of curse.
In perspective that someone like me who has no knowledge on the issue, how powerful was Alistair Crowley?
>>17844823
That's a simple sort of curse to break.
Just absorb or "eat" the curse, and laugh in their faggot faces as you outperform them.
It's only a curse if you give a fuck, otherwise, it's a fuel source. ;^)
>>17844832
Well, what you give me is a solution indeed..But due to previous experiences, I'm paranoid about this kind of situations and I care too much about the matter just to laugh in their faces..Any alternatives? Or is the only option for me to man the fuck up?
>>17844829
I'm honestly not sure.
He was a prolific author, though, and did do a great deal to spur interest in magic, and though he's a bit long winded, his work is worth a read.
>>17844844
I'm having trouble understanding exactly what the problem is.
I understand that you don't want to give details, and I'm not asking for details, but eh, why is "man the fuck up" not a reasonable option in this case?
I don't mean literally go to them and villain laugh while exhaling cigarette smoke strait into their face, I just mean why care what they think?
What's the scariest experience you've had doing magic?
>>17844859
Nah. I don't mind telling you more about it. It's a silly issue but happened to many times for me to ignore. It's about college grades. I used to be really good, I know my fellow students don't like it, and they cursed me or whatever and now my grades went to shit. I can't simply stop caring about it because too many similar previous experiences happened to me and i'm a bit of a beta faggot
>>17844861
This is probably going to be a silly sounding answer, but I'd have to say it was the moment when I was very young when I realized what it was I was doing, and that this practice was unknown to the vast majority of people around me.
>>17844873

hmm, then if it's intellectual sluggishness, and you don't want to just feed off of the "curse", then perhaps there is another way.
The Lion's Mane mushroom.
If you're merely interested in it's neuro-regenerative properties or whatever, it can be eaten.
If you'd prefer to use it as a magic ingredient in a potion (the spell being a boosting of said properties), then it's a pretty straitforward potion.
>1 part distilled water
>1 part distilled liquor of the type suitable for your own personality, sort of like 'birthstones', but think liquors. 80-100 proof.
>grind dried lion's mane to powder

I'm going to check out if that mushroom can be found in my area and try making that stuff...Thanks for the help m8

Create a mana vacuum that flows from the target tank you want to jack from, and the target tank you want to fill to.
Pull the fuel off as a magically rarefied 'vapour' from the 'take' target, and re-materialize it in the 'give' target.
Well then, we're about getting to the actual 'death-eater' part.
That's quite literal.
A "death-eater" is one who has eaten death.
That means to magically cause the death of an innocent being, and eat it's soul as it dies.

How do I start? I have books on demons. Should I try to gain something from them? Or do deals with them not work?

Doing dark magick. Where do I learn?
>>17845785
Oh, that.
Well then, I'd recommend starting in the darkness.
>>17845789
Can you be more descriptive and not cryptic?
>>17837606
Would you think the use of phychedelic substances to aid meditation aimed at manifestation be classified under dark and damaging? Would the damage be caused by the lack of inner tempering by getting there the patient way? Do you think this is viable or just deluded?
>>17845791
Sure.
What I mean by that is to get a feel for DARKNESS.
I don't mean the-sun-went-down-and-now-it's-hard-to-see darkness.
I mean oh-fuck-why-are-worms-coming-out-of-my-skin-darkness.
Practically, you'll find both in the same place, but there's a bit of a difference.
So I guess what I mean to say is, enjoy the night and pay attention to the winds of magic in that night.
>>17845798
So basically be open, but be open to what?
>>17845800
Evil.
How do I work with demons?
>>17845806
trick question, you don't.
B-b-but what about GOOD demons.
Then that's not a demon.
>>17845806
Basically, you'll construct one circle to constrain the demon, and another to shield you from fucked up shit as you do your work if you're doing the heavy-handed thing.
Otherwise, just hit a dude up and be like, 'sup.
If it doesn't just absolutely hate you, maybe it won't bite your dick off.
>>17845809
I don't want to work with /good/ demons, I want to work with the bad ones. That's the point.
>>17845810
Sorry if I'm going very noobish on you, but.. How?
>>17845812
Oh, I see what you're asking.
Eh, I'm not sure exactly how to say this, but like, it's a matter of making a particular "set and setting" that's just "wrong".
Wrong in the sense of conductive to what we're trying to summon, if that makes any sense.
We'd like to create a small bubble of a suitable environment to house the beast, as our reality is usually not suitable for them to exist in.

Any good grimoires you could refer me to? Links to PDFs as well.

To elaborate: I have a slight background in shamanism, can the two (shamanism and dark magic) be seamlessly integrated? I know dark shamanism is a thing, but not totally sure it's exactly the same as what I'm going for.

Hey OP, or anyone else that considers themselves "qualified". I have a project I'm working on that focuses pretty heavily on magik and "the dark arts". I don't have the time to discuss stuff on forums, but I would be very interested in talking or working with someone with experience in this field. If anyone wants to provide there assistance, email is [email protected]
And incase noone has the time or interest, I do have one question that's simple enough to ask here: how does an individuals capability compare to that of a group of people. Is there a diminishing return with the addition of more people, or the opposite, or is it more intricate than that?

In regards to your 'ask here' question,
It's more a matter of quality than quantity.
One wizard worth their salt can lay waste to countless hedge-mages.

To be more specific, i mean mushrooms, lsd and dmt(in its many forms) for me are like shortcuts to deep meditation. Any insight into this? Could i use these to bolster my magick ability? I was wondering if it was a more common practice than i was aware of. Apologies if this sounds silly. I'm only recently starting to study darkness, although I've always fancied it.

No apologies needed.
I know what you mean.
in short, yes, these types of substances can in fact bolster your casting ability, but at the same time, they lower your resistance to outside influences and spells, so basically, the only limit here is the strength of your own willpower and reasoning ability, if that makes sense.
How difficult would it be to cast a spell that makes your love interest pregnant? What would you need? How is it preformed? Has something ever been successful?
