An Essay In Ontology With Some Remarks On Ceremonial Magic

Book: An Essay In Ontology With Some Remarks On Ceremonial Magic by Aleister Crowley

In presenting this theory of the Universe to the world, I have but one hope of making any profound impression, viz.-that my theory has the merit of explaining the divergences between the three great forms of religion now existing in the world-Buddhism, Hinduism and Christianity, and of adapting them to ontological science by conclusions not mystical but mathematical.

Of Mohammedism I shall not now treat, as, in whatever light we may decide to regard it (and its esoteric schools are often orthodox), in any case it must fall under one of the three heads of Nihilism, Advaitism, and Dvaitism. Taking the ordinary hypothesis of the universe, that of its infinity, or at any rate that of the infinity of God, or of the infinity of some Substance or idea actually existing, we first come to the question of the possibility of the co-existence of God and man.

Magical Arts

THE PLACE OF MAGICAL ARTS

"This is a piece I was asked to write for the upcoming ADF Grove Organizer's Handbook revision. The editor felt it needed a basic position paper on 'magic' in adf. Comments welcome - this is very much a first draft."

The meaning and use of 'magic' (I will refrain from using the 'k' that some attach to the common spelling, since that has associations with specific schools of practice outside of our own) in our Druidic practice is an important issue. Throughout the Neopagan Movement the term magic is common, used with a variety of meanings. To some it refers to all the 'occult' methods involving spells, charms, spirits and divination. To some it refers to the intrinsic wonder and mystery of the cosmos, or to the 'energy' that underlies existence. Some say that magic is something you 'are', not something you do, while others that it is a skill as much as a talent. Some see magic and religion as nearly opposites; some see them as nearly identical. There is a simple reason why 'magic' has such a confusion of definitions - it has in fact no clear meaning in an Indo-European Pagan context.

In the process of building an ADF Grove you may find yourself dealing with issues surrounding 'magic'. Your new members and guests from the broader Pagan community will bring their own assumptions and ideas, and you will need to have a Druidic answer or three ready. This article is meant both to introduce a few scholastic basics concerning magic in IE Paganism and some of the real uses of magical skills in a Druidic context.

WHENCE MAGIC?

The roots of the term 'magic' are in the culture of archaic Greece. The Greeks were cousins of the Persians, who's traditional Fire-priests may have been called Magi (sing. Magu). The term is nearly lost in Persian, but occurs in Greek beginning roughly in the 500sbce. Indo-Iranian priestcraft seems to have included the performance of rites meant to provide individual clients with practical goals such as fertility, wealth or the removal of ill-luck. Whether it was wandering members of that caste or merely imitators cashing in on their mystique, by 500bce there were people known in Greek as magoi, practicing mageia or magike. These figures traded in spells, blessings, dealings with spirits and the offer of spiritual experiences through secret initiations. This complex seems to have appeared foreign to the Greeks and they came to view much of it as impious and suspect. What began (and continued) as plainly sacred practice in one Indo-European culture became a complex of marginal and suspect practice in another.

If the Greeks were suspicious of the use of spiritual arts for personal goals - that is, of magic - the Romans were more so, and that suspicion passed to the Christian empire in turn. Our modern default ideas about what categorizes magic remain based on the notions of the late classical Greeks and Romans. However when we examine other IE systems we find very different attitudes.

The basic skills of what has been called magic are identical to those that are used in Pagan religious practice. Invocation of the divine, the use of herbs and stones, signs and symbols, the consecration of objects with spiritual power, the knowledge of times and seasons, all are part and parcel of traditional Pagan ritual. While all of these skills are used in the service of the Gods and the folk they can also be readily applied to the needs and will of the individual. It is the varying attitudes of IE cultures toward the private use of spiritual arts that determines their attitude toward what we call magic.

If I were to offer a definition of magic it might be: "Specialized spiritual skills employed for personally willed goals." The core elements of Pagan religion are those employed by magicians and priests alike, and often for the same goals. Within this basic definition we can look at a couple of important basic distinctions.

THEURGY AND THAUMATURGY

One basic set of categories divides specialized spiritual arts according to intention. Theurgy (Gr. 'divine working') is the use of spiritual skills to produce personal and group religious or spiritual experience at will. Thaumaturgy (Gr. 'wonder working') is the use of spiritual skills to create specific effects in the world. Wealth, health, love, and all the common goals of 'spells' might result either from theurgy or thaumaturgy. Thaumaturgy would seek them directly - theurgy would offer them as a side benefit of spiritual progress.

In the ancient world theurgy was part of the work of any skilled priest. Knowledge of the symbols of and calls to the Gods, of the proper use of images and physical anchors for the spirits, of the uses of herbs and stones and the hidden powers of things, of oracles and seership were all integral with IE religion. In later classical times traditional religion was challenged by Christianity and other 'mystery' religions. In response the traditional skills were reformulated with a focus on solitary or small group ritual. Greek thinkers debated whether these practices belonged in the less-than-reputable category of magic, and the Christian authorities placed it firmly there.

Thaumaturgy has always had a distinctly less savory reputation, but has always been studied and practiced. While there were many honest purveyors of spells and spiritual support, marketplace fortunetellers and sellers of charms were probably more common than wise men in towers. Some IE systems seem to have allowed the priesthood to work such arts for individuals, while others forbid it. Of course when the community required thaumaturgy, such as rainmaking or the cure of blight on the cattle, the priesthood's thaumaturgical skills would be expected to be up to snuff.

PUBLIC AND PRIVATE

Another important set of categories describing spiritual arts is the distinction between public and private rites. Pagan religion was decentralized, and personal and household religion was often handled by the household members. There was, however, a suspicion of rites done in secret. Among the Romans one simple distinction between an invocation and a 'spell' was that one was spoken plainly aloud while the other was whispered in secret.

In some IE societies the learning of these specialized spiritual skills seems to have been fairly tightly regulated by societal norms. The Celtic Druids and Vedic Brahmins seem to have had a firm apprenticeship system in which learning was limited to those who could find a teacher to accept them. However cultures with literate records of the arts would certainly have had a degree of 'leakage', perhaps producing self-proclaimed wonderworkers and gurus. The limitation of higher-order spiritual skills to a trained elite probably contributed to the mythic image of the 'wizard'. The leakage of the 'secrets' into less approved hands helped to produce the sense of 'forbidden arts', even before Christian dominance. Since these arts produce powerful effects they traveled widely in a way that tended to transcend caste and other proprieties that made them subject to the public disapproval of priests.

So we can say that in some sense magic is private spiritual practice outside the control of the social authorities. When these skills, often developed in private by priests, are brought into the public temple they are usually used quietly, while the folk sing the hymns and watch the offerings. However in our modern Pagan milieu it is much more common to involve even the casual congregation in the deeper spiritual work of the rites. Once again the distinction between magic and religions blurs almost to the vanishing point.

MAGIC IN ADF

Most of the practice of magical arts in ADF is focused on the theurgic work of our Order of Ritual. The willed intention that we bring to our High Day rites is to create an environment where mortals and the Powers can see one another, and be seen, and we can gain the blessing of the Gods and spirits. We employ ritual, trance, symbolism and offerings - all the elements of theurgy - to draw the blessing of the spirits to our Fire.

Through this we mean to have an effect upon the participants. We bring the presence of the love and power and wisdom of the Gods closer to our mortal lives. We ask the Holy Ones to bless us with health, wealth and wisdom. Sometimes we choose to direct this blessing by our conscious will. Very often we simply rely on the proper turning of the Weave of Fate, with the power of the Gods and Spirits who wish us well, to bring us what we need. You won't hear a lot of discussion in ADF about 'trusting in the Gods' but there is an element of that in our works of blessing.

So as you begin to develop your skills for ritual, remember that on one level your task is to help the folk make magic. Attend to your own practice of mental discipline, and to your own devotions to the Gods. When you approach a High Day rite, especially as one of the ritualists, consider doing preliminary offerings to the Gods at your Home Shrine. There are several instructions for the patterns of visualized Inner Work for our Order of Ritual. Practice those and make an effort to apply them when you celebrate public rites.

Thaumaturgy has gotten less attention than has theurgy in our sacrificial rites. The Order of Ritual has been variously adapted for spellbinding. One rite for group practical work (http://www.stonecreed.org/rituals/blessing.htm ) uses the standard Neopagan method of 'power raising'. After receiving the Blessing the members present the candle or token they wish to bless, speaking their intention aloud. Chanting and drumming are then used to alter awareness and focus intention to 'charge' the tokens. My own work in my book "Sacred Fire, Holy Well" offers a full system of Druidic 'spellwork' and other magical skills. In general most of the methods in common use in traditional later-period magic grow from practices common in Indo-European cultures. Images, talismans, spoken and sung charms, the 'conjuration' of spirits all seem to extend far beyond the late classical world into the past.

The practical application of spiritual arts as 'spells' or 'magical works' has had a very limited role in ADF overall to this time. While all the elements of such work are available in our context our focus on receiving all good things through the Blessings of our rites has made the need for tinkering with events through spells a tertiary matter. That said, we are working to build the presence of practical magic in our work. Our Clergy and Initiate's program requires all students to try their hand at practical work, and no doubt some of us will find a knack for one or another skill. By whatever name we seem to intend to train our Druids by giving them experience of invocation of the divine, of work with spirits, divination and spellcraft.

CONCLUSION

These skills of practical spiritual arts are inherent in ADF's design and practice, but are just beginning to find expression. More generally, spiritual arts are applied in all well-worked rites. What western 'occultism' has sometimes referred to as 'high magic' is itself an inheritance from Pagan religion. Cleansing and purification, invocation, divination and consecration play a part in every Druidic rite of worship. These skills can also be applied in service to individual practical goals, but our work is more concerned with the Blessing of the Gods and Spirits, and the finding of harmony between the individual soul and the World Order. That is the heart of the magic of Our Druidry.

Everyday Moon Magic Spells And Rituals For Abundant Living

Book: Everyday Moon Magic Spells And Rituals For Abundant Living by Dorothy Morrison

I've read a couple other Moon books, but this one is by far the best. Why? Because Ms. Morrison (much like another of my favorite authors, Patricia Telesco) has a certain and very special way of making things simple, accessable and right to the point without talking down to the reader, getting lost in Craft mumbo-jumbo or making things harder than they really need to be as I've seen so many times by other authors. There are no lectures, power trips or mind-numbing lists of hard-to-find ingredients here; no lofty words or flowery rituals. In fact, you probably already have many of the ingredients she mentions. This book is practical, useful, wonderfully organized and chock full of Moon facts, spells, rituals and other worthy and interesting tidbits that can indeed be used every day. I found it a fast read, which is good -this way I can get right into things :) If you've been disappointed, bored or overwhelmed by other Moon Magic books, give this one a try. Simply put, this book is a pleasure to read, use and own; it's one I'm sure I'll refer to often. I'm keeing this right next to my much-loved copy of Everyday Magic and will likely be following up with her companion book, Everyday Sun Magic.

That magical, mystical, glorious Moon-invite Her power into your life every day, from fixing your computer to blessing your pets. You'll learn how each Moon phase affects your spellwork, including the seldom-discussed energies of the true Blue Moon, the Black Moon, the void-of-course moon, and the lunar eclipse. Follow the Moon as She traverses each sign of the zodiac, and discover how each astrological phase affects magic, mundane events, and gardening-and how your personal Moon sign affects your magical work. Includes more than 140 modernized spells, chants, and rituals, along with Esbat celebrations for the Full Moon.

Dorothy Morrison has put together in this book a wonderful primer that is chock full of moon lore, moon mystery and moon magic. And because of all the bits of information collected here, even the experienced practitioner will read through this book and come away scratching their head saying "I didn't know that!"

Ms. Morrison includes in this book some of the history of moon lore and moon cycles. Included are bits of 'old sayings' and Superstitions as well as names of the monthly moons and what they mean. She reviews the moon phases and effects. Ms. Morrison also discusses astrological terms referencing the moon and what they actually mean. For those who are not familiar or don't remember or are not sure, this section alone is worth the price of the book. Then she takes it a step further by explaining how these references apply in relationship to our magic and our lives. Times and cycles for ritual, magic and spells are also discussed and examined. Empowering moon rituals filled with positive affirmations for the building of personal self esteem, which Ms. Morrison is so good at writing, are here for you to incorporate into your own ritual material. And, of course, no book by Dorothy Morrison would be complete without a whole section of her wonderful spells.

As usual, Dorothy takes all this and puts it into a book that shows you, step by step, how to work this into your everyday life, making it a practical as well as informative book. There is so much more here that I've not included in this review because it would take pages to write about. Needless to say, Ms. Morrison has been thorough in her research. There is a table of contents to help you find what you are looking for as well as a bibliography. Add to that her easy to read format and no nonsense approach to teaching, and you have a winner here.


This is a book that should be considered when you are in the store looking for something practical, informative and just plain good to read and add to your library.

The Foundations Of High Magick

Book: The Foundations Of High Magick by Melita Denning

The purpose of The Foundations of High Magick is to continue the works of the Ogdoadic Tradition of the Western Mysteries, thereby providing a sane vehicle for the spiritual well-being and advancement of its members in an ambience of living alchemy. The Magical Philosophy is published under authority of Aurum Solis and is endorsed by the Order as a valid curriculum for study and practice of High Magick within the Ogdoadic Tradition.

This is the definitive work on the Western Mystery Tradition—both setting forth the way mainstream Western occultism has developed and providing a completely modern and psychologically valid restatement of the Magical Art. The work of Magick is the work of Man. The famous schema of the Qabalah, the "Tree of Life," which indicates an entire philosophy by means of ten circles and twenty-two connecting lines, is sometimes taken to be an objective plan of the universe. It is not: it is altogether subjective. It is the plan of the universe interpreted through the focus*ng lens of human nature. That is both the limit of what we can know and the limit of what concerns us. The perfection to which we aspire must be perfection of the human kind.

The aspiration towards perfection is essential to all who follow the path of Magick. Here is no place for scruples about spiritual narcissism, or pride, or an=thing of that sort. To reject this aspiration would be to will a disharmony in the universal fabric, and would be at least as great a catastrophe as the defects which it might seem to avoid. It is this aspiration, and this reverent sense of purpose which are the most sure marks of the true student of the Qabalah.

There is Man, the Microcosm, containing within himself all those forces he perceives in the external universe, and, step by step, in his training, becoming aware of those forces and learning at the same time to evoke and control them. For this is the truth, which the guardians of the Qabalah have known through the ages, and which the most advanced psychologists are beginning to perceive: the inner world and the outer are more closely related than is ever dreamed of by the average man, who thinks of himself as the victim of external circumstances; and the inner world is the more potent. Man makes his world, or is crushed by the worlds made by others. The greater his understanding and the more enlightened his spirit, the better he will carry out this essential task.

A Superbly Wicked Spell

Taking the Law Of Three into consideration, this is how to make a spell for revenge or to hurt someone back who's hurt you or someone you love, but at the same time how to remain perfectly safe and serve the highest good of all concerned.

HERE'S HOW:

* Think about the person in question, paying special attention to their shortcomings, and the hurtful things they do.

* Now consider their higher self, think about how they are totally failing to live up to the best that they could be, and not living their life in a good way.

* Now, choose a POSITIVE QUALITY that if it was bestowed on this person, would create maximum conflict and damage in their lives.

FOR EXAMPLE:

A vicious drug dealer who exploits people would have a really hard time of it if they were to all of a sudden develop a heart full of compassion. Or if they were to have deep insight into how their actions affect others, along with a strong sense of responsibility for the people they come in contact with, or even just a driving need live an honorable life, to always tell the truth, or make the world a better place.

For such a person, just about any positive quality, such as:

* compassion
* honor
* love
* empathy
* generosity
* honesty
* understanding
* connecting to higher spiritual sources
* enlightenment
* heart ">insert quality] I now give,

to [insert name of revenge target] with all my heart and soul,

to change [him/her] and to make [him/her] whole;

By all on high and law of three,

this is my will, so shall it be.

Visualise the person strongly in the candle flame for a short but intense time, then blow out the candle. It is done.

White Magic

The opposite of black magic is white magic. The differences between black magic and white magic are debatable, though theories generally fall within the following broad categories:

* The All as One theory states that all forms of magic are evil, irrespective of colour (white or black), with this view generally being associated with Satanism. People that maintain this opinion include those belonging to most branches of Christianity, Islam, and Hinduism.

* The Dark Doctrine theory states that black magic is the powers of darkness, usually seen from a Left-Hand Path point of view. This may or may not contrast with white magic, depending on the user's acceptance of dualism.

* The Formal Differences theory states that the forms and components of black magic are not the same due to the different aims or interests of those casting harmful spells than those of white. Harmful spell-casting tends to include symbolism that seems hazardous or harmful to human beings, such as sharp, pointed, prickly, caustic, and hot element(s) combined with very personal objects from the spell's target (their hair, blood, mementos, etc.). This distinction can primarily be observed in folk magic, but pertains to other types of magic also.

* The No Connection theory states that both black and white magic are completely different from the base up and are accomplished uniquely, even if they achieve similar effects. This stance is often presented in fiction, and as a result, the two classes of magic-users are portrayed as being both ideologically and diametrically opposed. In The Lord of the Rings, the Elves find it strange that Humans and Hobbits can even use a single word, "magic", which refers to both forms, as the Elvish tongues regard them also linguistically as completely separate and unrelated.

* The Separate but Equal theory states that black and white magic are exactly the same thing, differentiated only by their end goals and intent. According to this theory, the same spell could be either white or black (see gray magic); its nature is determined by the end result of the spell. The majority of religions follow this belief, as does the remainder of fiction that does not follow the No Connection theory. By this interpretation, even such spells commonly seen as good can be misused, so healing could be used to regenerate the body to the point of cancer, for instance.

Sun and Moon Magic-referring to light (or "White") magic being the magic of the sun or day, and Dark (or "Black") magic being the magic of the moon or night. This interpretation has nothing to do with "good" or "Evil", but instead has to do with the natural day and night cycle. But again, it all depends on the practitioners intent-even the "white" or "day" magic can be used for evil purposes and still be called "white" magic. Evil: Is a person or idea that has to do with the intent or nature of being sinister (rough definition.) Gothic: Is to be dark without a sinister intent or nature (rough definition.)

White magic practises

Depending upon how loose the denomination's philosophy is concerning magic, certain practises may be allowed. This list is largely based on the "Separate but Equal" theory stahjfrbvjrefbguvjbrfjvug84Connection", as there are branches of any type of magic that may be better or worse than others. Following is a list of magical practises based upon various faiths,

* Sutra - spoken or written word is little different from prayer, although intent is importa
* Mudra - religion typically allows mudras, or hand signs. For instance, the sign of the cross,
* Protection - represents a desire to protect loved ones, so this is generally good. It can however, also be used in binding and sealing others,
* Weather Magic - prayers or the like for rain or sun are done, even by the contemporary Christianity,
* Healing/Exorcism -the art of healing is seen as a miracle, and is done by the originator of Christianity, Jesus. Exorcism is allowed for the same reason, tgift than a form of magic,
* Alchemy - potion making is part of healing above, although intent is once again an issue,
* Blessing People/Objects - This is a grey area, due to the laws on graven images, but even certain priests have staffs related to their office. Generally, it is considered acceptable.

Fire Spells

The following information is found in the book Earth Power by
Scott Cunningham (Llewellyn 1992).

Purification

This spells helps to rid you of vices or guilt that you may have and the spells are executed rather easily. Take a symbol of your vice, for example a cigarette or some food, and throw it into a raging fire. As the fire destroys the symbol, it will also destroy the power it had over you.
