Magick is meant to be used

Many people nowadays take Magick as something abstract, mystical, thinking you can reach higher wisdom and mystical experiences by reading about it.

If you want a good read, go for The Discworld. If you want to improve your life or even get yourself out of the dump, do Magick.

Magick is a tool, created for some purpose, and as a tool, it wants to be used for that one purpose. Consider a knife, the tool created for cutting. It wants to cut and it doesn't matter whether you use it to slice bread, carve into wood or use it for the self-defense, that's its purpose. But you won't make the knife to sing, it doesn't sing. Grab the knife into the hand and feel its resonance, try to hear what it wants you to do, feel your hand trembling, slowly waving the knife, letting it's blade taste the air moving around it, trying to fulfill its destiny, its purpose.

It's the same with Magick. Magick is a tool and has a purpose. Many New Age practitioners tried to use Magick for something else and failed. Many RHP practitioners were tricked by the "dark side" to taste the power. There isn't really any "dark side", just Magick wanted to serve its purpose. You won't teach the knife how to sing and you won't slice breads with headphones.

Practice is what makes Magick powerful, practice is what makes it real and undoubtful, practice is what makes results. Reading about Magick is like reading about craftsmanship, it won't improve your ability to actuallt make amazing pieces of art, it just might give you a technique or two to make it look better, but hands-on is the thing that improves the art.

Trying ChatGPT's knowledge of occultism

 I decided to quiz ChatGPT regarding its occult knowledge and I must admit, I was pleasantly surprised. Q: Define the astral plane The astral plane, also known as the astral realm or astral world, is a concept in many spiritual and philosophical traditions. It is often described as a non-physical plane of existence beyond the physical world, where consciousness can travel and experience things beyond the physical realm. In some beliefs, the astral plane is seen as a place where the soul or spirit can go after death, or where individuals can go during astral projection or out-of-body experiences. It is also sometimes associated with dreams and the unconscious mind. The concept and interpretation of the astral plane can vary greatly across different cultures and belief systems. Q: What is spiritus mundi? Spiritus mundi is a Latin term that translates to "the spirit of the world." The concept has roots in ancient philosophy, particularly in the work of the philosopher Plotinus,

Simple Sumerian Banishing Ritual

In this simple ritual we will call two entities that were given to Marduk. Nariluggaldimmerankia, guardian of Igigi and Annunaki, enemy of all maskim and rabishu, and we will also call Asaruludu, ruler of the flame sword, giver of the perfect defense. I am a bit tired now to give any more details, so here we go: 1) Face north and take a couple of deep breaths 2) Center and ground yourself (as described in How to begin with practical Magick article) 3) Call the word of Nariluggaldimmerankia, the word is BANRABISHU. Call this word to each direction, when you are done, turn back to north. This should clean the space of all negative energy, no matter if it consisted of negative emotions like anger, fear, frustration, negative entities like demons, larvae or some curse. 4) Call the word of Asaruludu. Proceed the same way as in step 3, call his word in each direction. His word is BANMASKIM. 5) Enjoy the effects. This ritual is very simple, words of power can be easily memorized and
