Invocation of Venus

Ave,

Performed the Invocation of Venus, and had a couple of significant things occur. After lighting my sweet-smelling incense, and giving myself a good purification and consecration I stood before my altar and said a short prayer. The richly green candles on the altar gave of just enough light. The temple felt comfortable and warm, like a hug. There was a frission, within the room;  it felt like the moment immediately before you're about to kiss a new potential love for the first time...a kind of sultry intensity. I worked through the battery of rituals, and came to the point where one invokes the Goddess Hathor. This was very interesting. I sang a short song in her honor, and felt great energetic rushes into my heart center from below. I created the astral form, and then went to step within it. My eyes were closed, and within my inner eye a blossoming of the form occurred. What was at first a 2-dimensional Egyptian style image of the Goddess became 3-D and lifelike. Her head was not a drawing anymore, it was like a full on Cow's head, I could see the individual hairs, the soft eye's. Her hands were graceful and adorned with bangles and bracelets, and  She felt instantly warm and welcoming. I don't know that I've ever gotten such a warm greeting from an Egyptian God. Perhaps it was the joyful singing in her honor that did. I'll have to try the same with other Gods in the future.

The invocation itself set my light-bodies on fire. It was very intense.

In LVX,

AIT

The disastrous effect of Pornography on Theurgy

 Ave, First off.....I'm no Puritan. I'm a huge fan of sex and its healthy expression. I'm a 31 year old American fellow; I practically grew up on the interwebz, and that means plenty of nudity and porn. Especially during my relatively barbaric early twenties. Lots of men my age will tell you they never enjoyed porn, or rarely watched it when they were young. These men are filthy,  filthy liars. It didn't become so mainstream because it was watched so seldom. There may be the occasional gent who avoided partaking, but I give him no credit; that sort of avoidance, built on fear of discovery and hidden shame, is shameful in itself. Like with most things, better to dare, be burnt, and learn than to sit in front of the fire with a trembling cowardice in the face of overwhelming curiosity. Just stay off of /b on 4chan, and you'll come out alright. The issue with pornography isn't a Moral issue. As long as everyone involved is a willing participant, mor...

Golden Dawn--WTF

Ave, I've been trying my level best to not talk about this latest eruption of foolishness, but good folks are being dragged through the mud (on both sides), and I've grown weary. This whole thing is a steaming pile of bullshit. No one is trying to "destroy" the Golden Dawn, that's just silliness. No one is trying to become the only "legitimate" Golden Dawn order either. I'm sickened by this display. Argue in a scholarly fashion! When did this sniping nonsense become the norm? A debate between honorable and wise gents (both of whom I consider Brothers in the Work) like Fraters AM and SR about the Sabbatian Qabbalah would be wonderful, if we could cut all the bullshit out. Quality conversations, ya'll.  Skip the vitriol, the name calling and the idiotic marketing methods. Yes, it is idiocy. This "McGolden Dawn" nonsense is stupid.Ya'll. GROW THE FUCK UP. For the record, The A+O's transmissions are valid, they are real. T...

I'm a ...Pagan?

Ave, So, I was chatting with a fellow Alchemist and dear brother of mine, who was pointing me toward the Feri tradition, an American-born Witchcraft tradition that incorporates elements of Huna and Hoodoo (Which is bloody awesome. Because I incorporate those elements too.) Seems like something I should know about, and I'd never heard of it until he brought it up in one of our recent correspondences. Doing some research for it led me to a blog called The Wild Hunt, which I've read once or twice, but haven't followed closely. It would appear that I'm the only magician on the planet who doesn't follow it closely. The writing is quite good. Reading it gave me pause, as it's directed at Pagans, and I'm not a Pagan. Right? Or am I? Hmm. I'm an Alchemist and a conjurer. I worship the One that is All and is None, as we all do one way or another, and I am a devoted Sacerdos Saturni. I work with the Christian Trinity and Saints/Heroic Dead, and with the an...
