Nice article! Something i often overlook myself nowadays. I usually wore my Ordo Arcanae grade robe or even did the ceremony naked (depending on its nature) but now i have gotten lazy.I have heard arguments against robes, implements, titles and so on for some time and to be perfectly honest almost got to a point where lazyness became a virtue (“look mom, no hands”).One could see a non implement approach as a sign of skill but still, after all is said and done, “like attracts like”.
The same “free” pagans (in my case ) that would call robes and titles silly and superflous would gladly make themselves a talisman.
Robes, as oppose to God forms, are physical, material. Thus if “like attracts like” any operation with an desired outcome of a material nature should be strengthened by wearing, weilding and navigating among material symbols.
Thus reaching the conclusion that Thaumaturgists should really benefit from it (the Goetic circle and triangle are always physical for example).
Next ritual i will don my robe while playing “Putting on the ritz” at full volume. 😉

The 7 Chakras
Root chakra
The Root chakra is about being physically there and feeling at home in situations. If it is open, you feel grounded, stable and secure. You don’t unnecessarily distrust people. You feel present in the here and now and connected to your physical body. You feel you have sufficient territory.
Sacral chakra
The Sacral chakra is about feeling and sexuality. When it is open, your feelings flow freely, and are expressed without you being over-emotional. You are open to intimacy and you can be passionate and lively. You have no problems dealing with your sexuality.
Solar Plexus
The Solar Plexus chakra is about asserting yourself in a group. When it is open, you feel in control and you have sufficient self esteem.
Heart chakra
The Heart chakra is about love, kindness and affection. When it is open, you are compassionate and friendly, and you work at harmonious relationships.
Throat chakra
The Throat chakra is about self-expression and talking. When it is open, you have no problems expressing yourself, and you might be doing so as an artist.
Third Eye chakra
The Third Eye chakra is about insight and visualisation. When it is open, you have a good intuition. You may tend to fantasise
Crown chakra
The Crown chakra is about wisdom and being one with the world. When this chakra is open, you are unprejudiced and quite aware of the world and yourself.
Paris Review: The Art of Fiction. 2011 interview with William Gibson
“The Bridge is a fable about counterculture, the kind of counterculture that may no longer be possible. There are no backwaters where things can breed—our connectivity is so high and so global that there are no more Seattles and no more Haight-Ashburys. We’ve arrived at a level of commodification that may have negated the concept of counterculture. I wanted to create a scenario in which I could depict something like that happening in the recognizably near future.” – on The Bridge in Virtual Light
“Having assumed that there were no longer physical backwaters in which new bohemias could spawn and be nurtured, I was intrigued by the idea and the very evident possibility that in the post-geographic Internet simply having a topic of sufficient obscurity and sufficient obsessive interest to a number of geographically diverse people could replicate the birth of a bohemia.” – on Pattern Recognition
Here be part of the new bohemia then imo..slabbb–
Tiphareth means beauty. Thus its vision is either a vision of beauty of the vision of knowledge of the crucifixion. It is in the center of the Pillar of equilibrium. It is thus, a mediator between the “Father” (Kether) and Man (Malkuth). The sacrificial gods go in this realm. We find Jesus here as well. As a mediator with the Christ energy. It brings balance to what was going on above, and what is coming from below. Its color is yellow. It’s Planet is the Sun. Thus, the sun gods can go here too if you would like to go deeper. Thus its metal is the beautiful gold. Here you will find the Archangel Raphael, which if you are familiar with the book of Tobit, you will know this Archangel as the Healing Angel. The Angelic realm is the Malakim or Angels (messengers) or (kings). It is the Son. It is a child, yet it is a king. This is where we gain illumination, as it is pretty high up the tree, and we can’t really grasp the Supernal Triad (Esp. Keter). Its symbol is the Hexagram, the cubed cross, or a cross. It is Kether on a lower plane, thus Jesus could rightly say, “if you have seen me (the Christ), you have seen the Father. As Kether is the “Energy behind the Sun”, Tiphareth is the Sun burning brightly, bringing life to humanity. :)
Whew. That was hard to do today. One of those days. Enjoy. :O
I usually don’t go outside my themes of magick and social change, but as a writer, I had to re-blog this. Fuck…………
