Learning Magick Over Time

Old Old Me: You gotta consecrate shit with the elements and get the right herbs and candles and shit.

Old Me: It’s all about your higher philosophy. None of this shit is important. Do what you want. 

Me Now: You gotta consecrate shit with the elements and get the right herbs and candles and shit.

Could you list the magickal podcasts that you listen to or recommend?

Then there’s this thing called Scroll of Thoth...

I just discovered Charm the Water. Not every episode is great, but it keeps getting better.

I gotta add Billy Brujo’s Black Magick Cooking Show on youtube. It’s fucking hysterical. And once you get past the humor you realize this guy does know some shit. Not always the type of magick I’m into, but always entertaining.

In this view, magick progresses from era to era in different forms. However, even though the practice has evolved, it does not make older forms of magick less valid. While EMK provides the most useful philosophy of magick for modern magi in our current culture, there remains much to learn from older forms of magick.

Emergent Magick, The Scribe Threskiornis

Whats the strongest gorm of magick and whats stronger out of sex magick or blood magick?

Apply the following equation to both forms:

M = GL (1- A) (1-R)
Pm = P + (1-P)M1/p

Okay seriously, I think I know what you’re asking. My first reaction is to ridicule, but this question does come from a place of sincere belief, which is more than most magicians have. 

I’m not saying I haven’t used either one in magick, I have. But you have a thinking error here, in that you are viewing these actions as some kind of commodity. As if they are magical money you spend to get results. You really need to divorce yourself from that kind of thinking. Magick does not work that way. 

Do your yoga. Check out Liber MMM. Or my own Liber F.  Start noticing the magical things going on around you. Keep a journal for that if it helps. Start working some divination system on the regular. Magick is about flow. It’s not about do x to get y (nor is it about Peter J. Carroll’s equation above). Magick is not about doing spells (though you should do some every once in a while). Magick is about being a magician.

What’s most important is developing a consistent and coherent paradigm within a well thought out and researched historical context.

Oh yeah, and do some sigils. Fuck, if you really want to test your hypothesis, launch one sigil with blood and another with sexual fluids and see which one works best
