Do not escape into the ecstasy or the frustration of the experience, but know that your reality is here, now, in that chair in the Temple Temple that you see in your mind and that exists around you.
&s you begin to sink into the greater reality of your surroundings, the image in your mind will begin to change from its appearance when you first entered. The physical structure will remain the same, but something e"il will begin to form. & black mist will seem to materiali!e in the t he room, seen through your inner "ision, growing thicker and blacker e"ery second. nderstand that this in not coming into being, but was always there yet was ne"er before seen.

'atch 'atch the darkness dance until it no longer seems to be reacting to stimuli, but appears to be the sole sti mulus of action.

Those who are new to the occult will try to sta"e off the spiritual "iolation that they ha"e warranted through this contemplati"e ritual. They will attempt to flee back into the daylight and to the co mfort of normalcy. normalcy. 'hen this desire comes, do not allow it to take hold. Re member at all times when in the midst of the 1owers of +ternity that they are always there and they always were, whether or not you ha"e been aware. Remember that they cannot be exorcised, that the act of banishing does not rid you of them but instead rids them of you, remo"ing your conscious mind from their presence. This meditation will allow you to start to understand the omnipresence and li mitless intelligence of the dark currents that assail e"ery molecule in existence without pre-udice. It lets you see t hat the 1owers of (agick are real and are "ery rele"ant. 1erhaps most importantly is that this rite allows +ternity to see you, to know that you are aware of it, and that you are attempting to ally yourself with it. It is here that the inherent strenght or weakness of the Sorcerer is seen, by both himself and by those 1owers which he wishes to possess. Repeat this esson no more than three times a da y, at least 2 hours apart, until the experience does not feel like it is forced or "isuali!ed, but is "ery naturally occurring and is sensed as a real occurrence rather than one simply in your mind. &s it becomes real to you, its utter true reality will be understood. Report notes on the experience, noting sensations, emotions, or thoughts regarding the exercise.
Lesson II The second lesson is focused on impro"ing "isuali!ation skills, which will be used extensi"ely in astral workings and e"ocation. (editate as was mastered in esson %ne. Clear your mind of e"er ything, including the Darkness that surrounds you. 'hen your mind is again blank, close your eyes and see in your imagination a pendulum swinging back and forth. It is not attached to anything, but is floating against a blank background. 'atch the pendulum for 34 minutes. *ou may find that it disappears, stops swinging, or some other such mental phenomenon of distraction. Do not allow this to dissuade your meditation, bringing the image back into clarity and continue swinging. Repeat this exercise no more than three times daily, until the pendulum swings for 34 minutes uninterrupted, and report notes.
Lesson III %btain candles, one in each of the following colors
Red 5reen *ellow %range 0lack Indigo 6iolet 'hite
Choose one or thwo colors to work with each day. Referring to the following correspondence chart, be sure that if you work with two colors, their attriutes compliment each other, lest your separate workings with them cancel each other out rather than amplify one another. Red 7 (ars, "iolence, passion, lo"e, hate, war, murder, sex, rape, blood 5reen 7 (other earth, green trees, grass, birth, life, gi"ing, healing, nurturing *ellow 7 1rotection, watching o"er, en"eloping with light, dispelling fear %range 7 1roducti"ity, reproducti"ity, accomplishment of work and goals, hard work and the reward there from 0lack 7 &bsorbing all other colors, bringing into oneself, death, ancient, unknown Indigo 7 Spiritual awareness, intuition, self7knowledge, clair"oyance, expansion of Soul

Sit in your chosen meditati"e posture and wat ch your surroundings come ali"e around you, until you ha"e achie"ed an internal clarity. %pen your eyes and light the candle. 5a!e into its flame and relax your eyes, si mply allowing your mind to absorb the energy of the candle8s flame. Contemplate the attributes of the chosen color and feel such attributes welling up inside you. Sense the coldness or hot, the passion or serenity, the darkness or the purity of the color inside of you, all of the emotion that is related to it buil ding. Raise the emotions of the color within you, and do not stop them from rising. Do not #uestion the "alidity of the emotion or try to place it with anyone or anything, but simply allow yourself to feel. $old your right hand o"er the candle, palm down. 0reathe in and feel the energy that has built up inside of you and the emotion gather in your chest. Release the breath slowly and feel the energy not lea"ing your mouth, but instead tra"eling though your muscles and "eins into your right arm. Inhale and feel the force that was once emotion solidifying, becoming an actual energy, as tangible as the wind. 'ith an exhalation, 9push9 the color7energy through your arm and feel it flooding into the candle. Sense the energy being stored in the wax of the candle and being released into the uni"erse through the burning wick. Continue channeling this color energy into the candle until it has left you completely. *ou may wish to take a break, as this is often spiritually and physically draining the first few rounds. Set the candle aside, preferably in a box which has no other purpose than to store the candles that you ha"e imbued with power. Return either minutes or hours later and repeat the abo"e with the second candle that you ha"e chosen. 'ith each candle charging, a slight energy residue or signature will remain. et this drift from you naturally, lea"ing only a lasting imprint on your 0eing by the next day. (ake notes of impressions of each color7energy. Repeat this for each candle, making sure that each is experienced in a real and concrete way. Report notes.
Lesson IV The fourth lesson teaches the beginnings or working with your astral light. It is a simple energy exercise taken from ran! 0ardon8s work. (editate as taught pre"iously. 6isuali!e a golden orb abo"e you, feeling the energy pulsing within it and radiating into the en"ironment. 'ith an inhalation, pull the golden light into your being until you are completely filled with it. +xhale and sense the light inside you growing brighter, more intense, like a white fire that has lit itself within you. Sense the pulsations coming from within yourself now. %nce the pulsations and "ibrational changes due to the golen energy become a noticeable realit y, and you can feel your whole being immersed in the throbbing and the rushing of the light, let your your head fall back onto your shoulders, so you are looking straight up at the ceiling. Take a deep breath in and feel the ight that you ha"e in"oked gathering in your chest. et your mouth fall open, still looking towards the ceiling, and breathe the light out of yourself. It will often feel thick, noticeably being exhausted from your body. This is the only way to complete exhaust any energy from your body, or to completely allow your soul to tra"el without connection to the physical 7 through the mouth. %ften, as the energy departs, you will find yourself choked up by it, coughing or gasping. &llow yourself to do this naturally if you do, and reco"er yourself. Report notes.
Lesson V (editate, clear your mind and breathe in deeply. In"oke Di"ine light as was done in t he pre"ious lesson. &s you exhale slowly, let the 5odname flow out of you, almost as if of it8s own accord, and let it be mo"ed into the uni"erse on a wa"e od Di"ine light. 1ractice this first with your own name. %nce you ha"e the feel for the techni#ue, "ibrate +l Shaddai three times, *od $e 6a" $e three times, and Sat :am once. Do these separately, and notice the change created in the en"ironment and in yourself. +ach name should ha"e a different feeling that it produces. Report notes. If you ha"e not done much work as a Cantor, or ha"e not had much practice in "ibration of 5odnames, and need some more instruction, do let me know and I8ll guide you through it.
Lesson VI )neel, facing east, hands on knees and head straight forward. Inhale, raising arms abo"e your head, clasping your hands together sa"e for both index fingers, which should point upwards 7 forming a steeple of your temple body. 91ull9 white light into your fingers, and channel in throughout your entire body. :ote the changes in consiousness and being. 1ush the energy now to a concentrated point at the tips of your fingers. +xhale, lowering arms to your sides, until 34 fingers touch the ground. 6isuali!e, as you do this, that a sphere of white light encases your being. Repeat this exercise until the reality of the sphere is undisputed in your mind.
Initiation - Receipt of the First Flame
*ou ha"e already unco"ered, through your own experience, what is necessary for Initiation. on this le"el, and on e"ery le"el. *ou are recei"ing the essons in a specific order at a specific time, one following another to create a specific effect. This acts as a type of combination lock that allows you to mo"e forward, +ternal. The ritual of Initiation, on your part, is to meditate and "iew the mist around you for fi"e minutes, "iew the pendulum for fi"e minutes, reconsecrate each of the candles in the same order as before, pull di"ine light from the orb abo"e you, "ibrate the name Sat :am, and form a sphere of light around you. 'ith this last one, you may feel that you ha"e not trapped yourself alone in the bubble of light, but that there is now so mething in there with you. This is the intelligent, omnipotent, +ternal irst lame. It will flow down into the sphere with you, and will o"erwhelm you, will reside within you. It will purif y you and empower you. 'hen you sense the presence of this lame, on any le"el, si mply and #uietly state, 9I accept the irst lame.9 &llow yourself to react howe"er you may. Some Initiates feel nothing at first, but o"er the following few days will notice a slight influx of power. %thers will be shaken to their knees. Some feel the power of the irst lame flooding through them as they read this instruction letter, much the same way that I feel it flooding through me towards you this moment, mo"ing through space to find you and fill you. In some of the higher initiations, I personally felt my flesh bubbling and burning with the lames, and saw all of existence burnt up before me. React howe"er you will, but know that you ha"e accepted a power and a non7intellectual source of knowledge into your +ternal being, and that it is only one of your first steps into 5odhood. )now also that as you are performing this ritual, I will be absent from this world of flesh and will instead be in the formati"e worlds of lame, mo"ing this power in your direction. The irst lame is yours, not as a gift, but as a birthright that you ha"e only now come to claim. +.&.

Lesson I 0egin with (editation, %nce you are clear, "isuali!e a red disk floating beneath the base of your spine, or between your anus and genitals. This is the Root Chakra, responsible for the "ital, primal energies that preser"e life through raw means. This is the will to li"e and the dri"ing force to continue in an otherwise hopeless existence. 6isuali!e a golden light beneath you, a pool of golden light in the ground. 'ith an inhalation, pull this gold light up your legs and into the root chakra. eel the chakra opening like a flower, releasing its energy. Repeat this until it feels like it will open no more. (o"e the golden light up your spine to an orange disk floating -ust o"er your genitals. This is the reproducti"e chakra. %pen it as you did the last one. Inhale and pull the light up into a large, golden disk floating off of your stomach. This is your solar plexus chakra, the storehouse of your emotion and intense desires. %pen it as before. 1ull the energy to a green disk floating o"er the center of your chest. This is your heart chakra, responsible for nurturing life, healing and general well7being. %pen it as before. 1ull the energy to the small sky7blue disk resting on your throat. This is the Throat Chakra, go"erning communication on "arious le"els and basic intellect. %pen it as before. 1ull the energy to an indigo disk o"er the center of your forehead. This is the Third +ye, responsible for clair"oyance, higher )nowledge, foresight, prophecy and self knowledge. 1ull the energy finally to your Crown Chakra, a large purple disk co"ered in lotus lea"es, spanning the top of your head. %pen this, and as you do, see the golden light lea"ing your body through this chakra and straight upwards, creating a pillar of light trough your body. There is no need to close the chakras. Si mply end the ritual as you feel most comfortable doing, make your notes and go about life. *ou should notice a change in your perception of the uni"erse ;and in the way the ni"erse percei"es you<.
Lesson II The second lesson teaches working with the spiritual elements of fire, water, earth, and air. In their pure forms, these elements form the base of creation on this earth. (editate, form a Sphere around you and open your Chakras. Choose one of the = base elements. ;fire, water, earth, air<. 6isuali!e it to the extreme, seeing, feeling, tasting, and hearing it. eel it flooding into the Sphere through the top, until the Sphere is completely filled with the concentrated element. Don8t try to force a
sensation one way or another with the elements, but simply allow the feelings of them to come as you focus on the element and as it floods into the Sphere. et the element drift and circle around you, trapped between your skin and the surface of the Sphere. Imagine that your body is hollow glass, like and empty pitcher. Inhale, pulling the chosen element into your body through your mouth, nose, and e"ery pore, beginning to fill up the 9pitcher9 with the element. +xhale, feeling the chosen element growing stronger inside you. Try to feel the effect of the entering element as concretely as possible. Continue pulling it into yourself until you are completely filled with the element. :ote changes in consciousness and any particular sensations. *ou may want to write these in a notebook to use in comparison with the other 2 elements. et the in"oked element saturate your entire being, until there is little "ariance between you and it. Raise your hands abo"e your head, forming a steeple with your fingers as was done in forming the Sphere. Rather than slowly lowering your hands, #uickly sweep tem down to the floor, dissipating the Sphere. 5o about the remainder of the day, noticing how the element affects you. 'hen you ha"e gained an understanding of being filled with that one element, and if it starts to wear on you, sit in a chair, let your head fall back onto your shoulders so that you are looking skyward, allow your mouth to fall open, and in one exhalation exhaust the element from yourself. %nly %:+ element should be in"oked per day, as -umping from one to another any sooner would cause an elemental imbalance > creating serious problems in the mental, astral, and physical being. In"oke a different element each day for four consecuti"e days.
Lesson III (editate, open Chakras, and sit or kneel with the fingertips of both hands touching, palms apart. Relax your hands, letting your fingers barely touch each other. :ow, mo"ing your hands #uickly in opposite directions, one up, the other down, brush your fingertips together lightly. Do this for ?4 seconds, sensing an increase in electromagnetic energy in your hands. $old your hands, fingertips centimeters apart, and feel the magnetic field between them. Relax your arms, and allow your hands to do as the will. Slowl y mo"e your hands apart from each other. *ou should notice a magnetic push@pull, which should reach a apeak with your hands a certain distance from each other. %nce you achie"e this, sense the same effect throughout your body... your entire being ha"ing a magnetic push@pull with the uni"erse. Inhale slowly, and note the change in the magnetic fre#uencies. +xhale, doing the same. +xperiment with this a bit, until you ha"e a good feel for the magnetism of your hands. Send me notes on how far apart your hands get from one another to achie"e peak magnetism, and your general sensations in this exercise.
Lesson IV esson = has multiple parts, as you will s ee. Try to do them all in one night, if possible, or if needed, split the tasks in two, half one night and half the next. This will create a full immersion or saturation of the experience. 0egin by simple meditation and opening chakras. $old your hands inches apart, fingertips together and sense the magnetic "ibration as was noted in the pre"ious lesson pulsing through your hands. (o"e your hands slowly apart, noticing the magnetic push and
pull as before. In this lesson, you8ll need to find a distance between your hands of critical mass > the point in which the pull is strongest. or most, it will be between = and 3A inches. et your hands ho"er in that area, pushing and pulling at a perfectly e#ual rate. %nce you ha"e established this critical mass, "isuali!e your solar plexus chakra growing brighter and hotter. Inhale, pulling the fiery energy from this chakra up your spine. +xhale and send the energy into your hands. Rather then the energy being released into the en"ironment, it takes ad"antage of the magnetic push and pull and stays between your hands. 'hat you8re doing here is creating a sphere of formed energy in your hands, empowering it and bringing it into a real manifestation. Sense to the fullest that you can the effect of this specific energy between your palms. 'ith the same inhalation@exhalation, pull more energy from your stomach chakra and push it into the energy ball. *ou may notice the area of critical mass between your hands growing as you do this. This is normal, as you are adding energy, and therefore demanding that more unseen space be pro"ided. Continue to feed the energy ball until you feel it has reached its full potential. It should be a fier y golden color and may feel hot to the touch. Sit with it, seeing it in your mind, feeling its glow in your hands. *ou now can do one of two things to conclude the 'orkingB 3. with one large inhalation, bring the energy back up your arms and into your solar plexus. This can cause what is called astral whiplash from too much energy at once, which will lea"e you feel o"erwhelmed. This will subside. A. *ou can slowly mo"e your hands down in front of your stomach and 9manually reinsert9 the orb of energy into your solar plexus chakra. This is the most natural way to return the energy to its place. %nce you ha"e returned the energy to it s chakra, take a break. 'hen you ha"e 9reco"ered9 from the abo"e, do the same with your heart chakra, creating a soft, green healing orb of energy and with your third eye chakra, creating an indigo orb of knowledge, intuition, etc. *our Solar 1lexus, $eart Chakra, and Third +ye are the three chakras you should use in this exercise. &t this point, do not start pulling from other chakras, as you don8t want to mix certain energies that closely. &fter experimenting with the three chakras, form a sphere around you, in"oke the element that you feel most drawn to ;fire, water, earth or sky<, create an energy sphere between your hands, draw the element into yourself, and channel it into the ball of energy. ocus on the elemental sphere of energy in your hands and feed it so much of the critical force of the element that it seems at any moment it might break out of the spiritual world and become physical in your hands. 'hen you ha"e finished the entire esson abo"e, or if you ha"e finished one half of it for the night, rest your head back on your shoulders, open your mouth, and in one breath exhaust all excess energy from yourself. ;This is called the %pening of the (outh, by the wa y, and was used postmortem in +gypt to allow a soul to lea"e the body and enter the underworld. Today, while still ali"e, it can ha"e the same effect.< I8m sure as you do this you8ll begin to see what can be done with such and exercise, and we will get to that in later lessons.
Initiation - Receipt of the Second Flame
The last exercise of the Second lame is to recie"e the Second lame itself. The following se must be performed in one sitting... and it may either be exhausting or intensely energi!ing. %pen your chakras and form a Sphere around you ;as taught in irst lame<. Create the magnetic force between your hands. In"oke each element, one at a time. &s the element fills you, push it into an energy orb between your hands. %nce both yourself and the orb are filled, pull the elemental energy of the ball into your arms and into your being. +xhale, feeling the element lea"ing your body. %nce it is expelled, in"oke the next element, doing the same for all four elements. %nce the ritual is in"oked and dismissed, "ibrate Sat :am. The sky will split open and the Second lame will rush down to fill you. I will be at the other side of the rift, directing the lames to you. )eeping the magnetism between your hands, et in pour out into an orb between your hands as well. &llow the orb to become so full of the lames that it flows o"er, the orb not being able to contain the power. et the lames do the same to you, spilling o"er you, flooding through you, o"erflowing into this world. *ou can feel them now, e"en as you read this, culminating beyond the regions of the abyss. et the Second la me shake your being and bring you 5odself to a more awakened state. et it saturate you and become you. &llow your emotions, your mind, and especially your bod y react howe"er it will to the power.

Lesson II (editate, open Chakras, form Circle of lames, and repeat the final Calling gi"en in the pre"ious exercise. Raise your arms slowly o"er your head and clasp hands together, fingers becoming a steeple. 1ull red, fiery energy into your hands this time, in the same manner as with the blue energy of the Circle. ower hands, left going to the side or small of back, right index and middle fingers pointing at the astral flaming Circle8s eastern point. In the same manner as with the Circle, direct a beam, steady and clear, at the eastern point on the ground. ;This is where good "isuali!ation@"ision is a big help<. 0egin tracing an e#uilateral triangle on the ground outside the Circle, one point should be touching the eastern most point of the Circle, the other two forming a line parallel with the north7south diameter of the Circle. 6isuali!e and feel the red fire left o the ground burning more e"enly and 9solidly9 than the indigo. eel the restraining power of the Triangle sending "ibrations throughout the astral plane. +xhaust remaining red energy at the eastern point, and kneel in the center of the Circle. %nce again, take careful mental notes of sensations, imagery, and alterations in conscious state in this period of reflection. Report notes.
Lesson III *our next lesson is the calling forth of the cardinal watchtowers. It is important to note that often the watchtowers manifest as actual stone structures, and at other ti mes may manifest simply as the guardian of those watchtowers. The Cardinal 1oints may e"en sometimes manifest as animals in coordination with the specific direction. Different traditions may use the attributes of each direction a bit different. The method put forth here is the most commonly accepted in 'estern Tradition.
:orth 7 earth, solidity, life7bearing, generati"e, maternal. Its colors are citrie, oli"e, russet, and black. +ast > air, intelligence, compassion, clair"oyance. Its colors are yellow and "iolet. South > fire, will, passion, destruction, "iolence, intensity. Its colors are red and green... sometimes a fiery yellow. 'est > water, emotion, lo"e, peace. Colors are blue and orange.
acing east, meditate, open chakras, and cast Circle. Stand with arms out to your sides, forming a human cross. Imagine and sense all attributes of air coming
from the east, until you ha"e a good idea and feel for the cardinal. Try to let the attributes and colors build into manifestation or at least astral culmination. CallB 9guardians of the watchtowers of the east, upon the winds, come9 eel the entities , usually one or three, rarely more, forming in the space beore you. %nce you are aware of the presence of the watchtower and@or guardian, turn ;deosil< clockwise to the south. Try to feel the heat and the "iolence and ardor. CallB 95uardians of the watchtowers of the south, i call you forth to protect this circle and to bless it with your presence. 5uardians of the watchtowers of the south, upon the flames, come9 To the westB 95uardians of the watchtowers of the west, i call you forth to protect this circle and to bless i t with your presence. 5uardians of the watchtowers of the west, upon the waters, come9 to the northB 95uardians of the watchtowers of the north, i call you forth to protect this circle and to bless it with your presence. 5uardians of the watchtowers of the north, upon the earth, come9 ace east again. Call, 9i gi"e my thanks to you, 5uardians of the watchtowers. I now ask not that my will be done, as my will is imperfect, but that here within the sacred circle, standing upon hallowed ground, that the will of the +ternal be made manifest through me. I ask, oh 5uardians of the 'atchtowers of the east, south, west and north, and by the powers of fire, water, earth, and sky/ I ask for protection ad guidance e"en after the Circle is dismissed. I ask that you be my guardians and my guides as I stumble in the darkness in search of those lames that were lost before time began. This is my wil l, and the 'ill of the +ternal. So it is done9 if the presence of the guardians is not sensed, do not read or recite the pre"ious until they &R+ there. This ser"es as a type of self initiation and an introduction to the first powers with which you will be working on a practical le"el. Take note of impressions during the ritual, especially after addressi ng the collecti"e watchtowers. Dismiss the watchtowers with a downward sweep of t he hands, after thanking them for their presence. eel the sweep of your hands and the current of air created thereby sweeping these 'atchtowers away. They may not completely be gone > you may feel their presence still there, or with you personally, aftewards. If so, this is as it should be. Report notes.

Ordo Ascensum Aetyrnalis Discourses Lessons of the Fourth Flame Emissary of the Third Flame
Lesson I The past three lames ha"e been "ery structured, doing this and that to achie"e a s pecific inner and outer result. :ow, with the ourth lame, this will all become extremely personali!ed. 'e will work on what you, specifically, need to &scend. *ou will be pushed to succeed where in the past you ha"e not. *ou will be pushed outside of your comfort !ones and your own expectations of what you can accomplish. I see deep inside of you, and I see the darkness and self7doubt that hides there, and the root of it all, and I also see the lames that are eating away at the ideao that you are not in"incible. *ou ha"e worked to master your mind and to attune your senses to a greater existence than the flesh, and now you will begin to master your world, and to reclaim your throne abo"e it. I now will begin to hand you the keys to 1ower, as they ha"e been handed to me, and with them you will &scend without restraint. The irst esson of the ourth lame is a purely physical and mundande one. Construct a ritual staff or obtain a ritual dagger. If you choose to use a ritual dagger rather then a staff, the blade should be at least ? inches long, and the handle should either be made of natural wood or should be black. :o o"erly ornate designs should be made in the blade, hilt or handle. The blade should also be sharpened, as it will indeed be used to cut. The ritual staff is to be cut while ali"e, and should be tapered, the top of thicker then the base of it when the thin end is placed on the ground. The top, thick end is to be rounded with a knife or sanding paper. The whole lenght of the thing should come at least to your chin when placed on the ground. The staff, being a phallic tool of asserti"e will, should be thick, reflecting your own ideals for phallic width, representing the most raw, sexually based power of domination.
Lesson II 1erform the following using the ritual dagger you now ha"e, and you may consecrate any further items in the future using the same method. (editate, open your chakras, and draw a Circle around you. Create a magnetic sphere between your hands, and allow the sphere to take on one or a mixture of the colors black, re, and "iolet. &llow this to reach a critical mass. )neeling or standing, with your hands still bu!!ing with energy, take your dagger in both hands, held an inch or two from the center of your chest, the tip pointing to the sky. Sense the power circling around you and the energy filling the room or area. 0reathe in and feel it responding, mo"ing tight around the Circle. &s you do this, also feel your own energy mo"ing, growing, ready to break out of your skin. 0reathe out, and rather than feeling your breath and energy lea"ing from your mouth, feel it lea"ing through your right arm and imbuing itself into the fabric of the dagger. Continue
doing this until the dagger feels as if it is glowing and hot, ready to burst with energy. 'hen it is brimming with power, call, 9Creation of steel, be the dagger through which the will and power of (agick may flow and couse change in this world. I seal this call ing upon you, and i seal the power to perform your purpuse within you, +ternal.9 &t this, feel the power that you ha"e transferred to the dagger solidifying, becoming as real and integral as the metal and wood. Dismiss the Circle and put the dagger away where it will not be found. Report notes.
Lesson III In lesson 2 you will need to get into direct coscious contact with the lames which you ha"e been in"oking and acti"ating with your Initiations here. Sit, stand, or kneel facing south. (editate. 1ull energy up through your feet and legs as in opening your chakras, but rather than stopping at your lower chakras, feel it passing through your root chakra and your reproducti"e chakra, which are now in a way permanently open and recepti"e, and filling your solar plexus. eel your solar plexus bursting open and releasing immense heat and light the instant that the energy enters it. 1ass the energy to your heart chakra and do the same. 1ass it through your throat chakra, which is errantly open and is barely affected, and into your third eye, which bursts open as well. Sit and feel your whole being connecting to existence without any walls or restraints. It is Soul and 5od, face to face. eeling the peace and power of +ternity mo"ing through you, take your dagger, hold it near your breast as before and call out, 9&s the anointed +missary of the Third lame, I call upon the se"en sons of the phoenix and the )eepers of the lame to ignite the lames around and within me. 0urn this Ser"ant of lames so that I may rise again9 Sense the lames gathering around you swiftly, as if you are surrounded immediately by li#uid power. 0reathe in deeply and feel the lames within you igniting as wel l, feel your whole being on fire, e"ery cell within you awakening in the agony of immortality. eel 5od stirring within. $olding your dagger in your right hand, point it either at the ground or the sky and feel the lames rising t hrough you and spilling into the dagger. 5ather your will and push the lames through the dagger. Try to see them, feel them erupting into this plane. ike the energy that was used to draw the Circle and Triangle pre"iously, see the lames lea"ing the tip of the dagger, only as they enter this world, sense the much more concrete effect, sense the permanence and "iolence of the lames on this lowest world. The lames are pure power, untainted, un#uestioning, simply acting when they are called to act. This power now flows through you. 'hen you speak as the +missary of the lames, the la mes listen. 'hen you command with the power of the lames, the uni"erse obeys. 1ractice this until the lames within you and t he lames that you mo"e through the dagger are as solid as the ground that you pass them to. It is important that this not be t oyed with, such as gathering the lames and 9shooting9 them at people. The effects could be irre"ersible. &lso, it is important at this point that you not allow your mind to focus on anything but the immediate goal when the lames mo"e through you. *ou are the +missary of the Third lame, and therefore you command more power than most so7called historical 5ods. *ou hold a piece of the power which was used to create all things from nothing, and which will return this uni"erse to nothingness. 0e careful with that power. &lways remember that the lames will be the fiery agent of translation from mortality into 5odhood.
Lesson IV *ou ha"e experienced the lames personally, intimately, and +ternally. This makes the rest of the essons from here on out much easier and effecti"e, as well as the recei"ing of the lames at initiations. &t first they will stir in you when you recie"e them, as has been t he case in the past three initiations. Then they will begin to destroy you so that you may reali!e that you cannot die. inally, they will destroy e"erything else, and you will stand as 5od of a waiting uni"erse. In your final initiations, we will sit across a table from one another and the hea"ens will split and world will fall away as you recie"e the lames. 1ull the lames from around you abo"e you, and within you, and pro-ect them into the tip of the dagger. eel them burning and growing more fierce, and feel the inherent power of the dagger increasing as the lames increase. %nce the lames reach a peak, slowly raise the tip of the dagger as high as you can towards the sky and see a stream of power flow through an etherealgateway into the dagger. CallB 9&lpha9. Slowly pull the dagger down and touch the tip of it to the earth and call, 9%mega9. Sense this action grounding the energy, creating a pillar of lames in the place where you stand. The dagger may be diffucult to pull down to the ground at first, as if the stream of light acts as a 9tractor beam9, demonstrating how concrete this power is. Stand back a foot or thwo from the area where you touched the beam to the groud and sense the power flooding into the earth, dispersing through t he ground. Take notes on your obser"ations here.
Initiation - Receipt of the Fourth Flame
The ourth lame is yours, and now you recie"e it. Stand in the center of the room, without a Circle drawn or any ritual performed, and hold your arms out to your sides, forming a human cross, your dagger in your right hand. CallB 9It! rachu mantantnu "espacha kaltamu. It! ranta mant kala mant at!u belt tasu. 6askalla it! rat!u kantantu "elchat!a9 This is the lame Chant. It possesses a natural rhythm which should be kept when speaking it. &s you speak it, feel the words shaking reality and bringing it down, the power of it mo"ing through your whole being, and mo"ing from your dagger into the world. & wind tunnel surrounds you and grows to a near shriek. *ou can feel the winds blasting against you and threating to push you o"er. The power of the lames you ha"e recei"ed peaks within and around you. & pillar of lames is instantly opened, running through you into obli"ion. &llow the flames to tear you apart, to kill you in whate"er small measure, and to simultaneously bring you to life. $ear the din around you growing louder, the unheard noises screaming in your ears as the lames rush into this world. inally, the hea"ens will fall silent, lea"ing your body trembling on the ground. *our temporal being has surrendered and has made way for the 5od within.

Lesson I & 0aron of the %rder has been assigned to be your personal spiritual guide and guardian, and he wil lfulfill this calling through the spiritual planes and states for now. 0eing &dept in all of the esoteric arts, all of his power will aide you and guide you, and most definitely will protect you. Shortly, you will recei"e his name as well instructions o contacting him first through the spiritual senses. The first lesson of the Sixth lame is to draw and consecrate the Seal of the Sworn )nights
3. The circle is symbolic of the eternal Tate, which we stand in, as we are in +ternity, and as the calling of the Sworn )nights is +ternal, and will pass with you from life to life. A. The triangle is symbolic of the manifestation of the eternal Tate on the physical plane, the union of the upper and lower, or the precipitation of the lames into the esser worlds, and the returning of that power to its source. +x Rhombus in Triangularum, ex spiritus regnum in manifestus... one eternal round. 2. The in"erted pentagram is one of the first symbols of man8s &scent into godhood through his own efforts.
Draw the symbol in black ink on white paper. Study it8s design and shape. %pen yourself to any initial impressions you recei"e. Consecrate it as you did with the sigil and s#uare pre"iously and let the power of the lames flow through the sigil. &lso, you will feel as you ga!e into the sigil, that the ot her Sworn )nights are ga!iing back at you. *ou will also find a stronger personality, intelligence, and power coming through the sigil... this is your assigned 0aron.

'ith it, all of them will rush to your aide if you call t hem, and you will likewise be able to come to their aide.
Lesson II EEEEEEEEEEE has been assigned to be your 5uardian until you reach the le"el of 0aron of the :inth lame. & good deal of future lessons will incorporate you workin with EEEEEEEEE, and his influence will be noticed when he is present. Construct a Circle and Triangle. 1erform the In"ocation od Di"inity ;pulling lames upwards through chakras, and pulling light down through body, forming a channel<. 1resent the Seal of the Sworn )nights within the Circle before you as you kneel or sit facing north. Scry into the seal and open it as before, and call your guardian8s name. 'hile many of the Sworn )nights will be aware of you, EEEEEE will be the one who seems to step through the Seal and enter your reality. This is basically and introduction. Try to get a good feel for his personality, as well as for his indi"idual strenghts and weaknesses. $e will immediately gain the sa me information about you, and will use this to help you the best he can. Report notes on the introduction as well as specific mes sages or impressions from EEEEEEE when this is completed.
Lesson III The third lesson of the Sixth lame teaches the basic calling forth of wandering, earthbound spirits. I am going to send you an excerpt from the book I am currently writing, +"oking +ternity, +ternity, which teaches this. %b"iously, %b"iously, since the work is copyrighted, I ha"e to ask you not to distribute it outside of this con"ersation ;not that I8m worried, -ust to co"er my bases<. $ere, you are simply calling spirits forth, not in solid materiali!ed bodies, but in spiritual bodies. *ou *ou sre to become aware of them, to sense them, after which you you will learn to see them. *ou may prefer to perform this simple rite outside, alt hough your indoor Temple Temple will work -ust as well. Shut out all light from the Temple, Temple, light the candles on the altar, and seat yourself behind it. Close your eyes and enact the meditation which will in"oke omnipotence. 'hen your entire being is aglow with Di"ine 1ower and ight, and that force flows from your eyes, hands, and radiates from e"ery pore in your skin, open your eyes and let your ga!e drift to the empty space betwee n the white candles. 'ithout 'ithout looking directly into their flames, allow your peripheral "ision to notice the light shining from the wicks, the aura that it creates, and the meeting of their orbs of light in that space on which your eyes are focused. Take a deep breath in, retaining focus on that empty e mpty air abo"e the altar, and feel the 5odforce within you stirring as you breathe. eel it gathering in your throat and in your mouth, rady to spill from your lips like a bursting dam of energy. energy. )now that if the omnipotence is released from you you in the form of words, all of existence and its countless inhabitants will be compelled to answer and to obey. obey. et the breath out by calling in a clear, controlled "oice, 9Spirits, hear my "oice. Spirits, hear my call. Spirits, gather around me. (ake yoursel"es known to me. I call you out of the shadows and out of the gra"es, and I command you to stand before me. Spiritis, I compel you... come9 come9 Do not allow fear to plant e"en a single seed within you. Steady your heart, as it surely begins to thump as the wandering spirits8 eyes mo"e to your direction. $old fast in a tran#uil Tate, still aware of your own omnipotence as you sit and wait. &s the con-uration was recited, if it was truly trul y done so with &uthority, &uthority, you will ha"e sensed the spirits bounding o"er the hills take notice of you. These spirits are by far the most willing to fly to your side and to make themsel"es known, and although for purposes of attainment or &scent they are impotent, they are each uni#ue and indi"idual entities that you can obser"e. Simply sense their presence, and once you do, do, thanki them for coming and dimsiss dimsiss them. Reports notes for next lesson.
Lesson IV Call wandering spirits near as in the pre"ious esson. Relax your ga!e and let your "ision blur slightly, slightly, taking the strain of obser"ation off your eyes and shifting it to your %ther senses, which will begin to See from your Third +ye, in the center of your forehead. &s you initially "isuali!e the entities and recei"e impressions of their i mages, you will likely notice a fine pressure in the center of your forehead. 'hen you encounter this, allow the energy that is trying to push its way from you, the in"isible indigo ray of light that is attempting to burst into t he Temple Temple with its omniscience, to do so without restraint. 5i"e your will o"er to your 5reater powers, and trust in them when the time comes. The first step in actually "iewing the spirits present, e"en if only in your mental "ision -ust yet, is to locate them. &fter you you feel that the spirits that you ha"e called near are indeed near, inhale and hold the breath in your chest for a moment. Shut off your mind. It is "ital that you not allow your brain to interfere with your
comprehension by inserting its own images or criti#uing those impressions that do sur"ade. Slowl y let the breath out. &s you do so, sense your own intellectual awareness, your your natural omnisciense, flood the room.

Remember, you you are not performing an exercise in imagination, but are simply tuning your extant senses into a phenomenon that you ha"e likely experienced in the pastB the awareness of the presence of a non7physical entity. entity. %nce the actual location of a spirit is disco"ered, train your senses on that space. Do not look at the space occupied by the spirit, keeping your ga!e locked in the glow of the two white candles in the center of the altar. Simply stretch your senses and your awareness out to that one spot in the room. &s you do this, your own conscious recognition of the presence of that particular spirit will grow stonger, sometimes frighteningly so. 0ring your emotions back under your command, not reacting to your surroundings, but acting upon existence. 1eople learn about things through analy!ing them, and they analy!e things by asking themsel"es #uestions about them. 'ithout #uestions, there can be no answers. &sk yourself, 9$ow tall is this spiritF9 Immediately, Immediately, your mind will gi"e you a response. If you ha"e to search for an anwer, it will not be true. Trust your senses, trust your answers, and trust yourself. %ften, the moment the answer comes, with your eyes still ga!ing into the eternal glow of the candles8 flames, you may see an outline of a figure through your peripheral "ision in the spot where the spirit is known to stand. Do not focus on this, but continue focusing on that empty space before you. &sk yourself now, 9$ow is the spirit holding its bodyF9 'ith this #uestion, your mind will not longer attempt to answer in words, but will choose the easiest path by placing an image in your mind, or sometimes in that elusi"e peripheral "ision. It is also at this point t hat the energies, those emanating from the multitude of spirits that ha"e presented themsel"es, from the power of the ritual itself, and from your own 5od7State, will begin to o"erwhelm you, in collusion with your brain8s inability to accept the impossible. This will cause a di!!iness or lightheadedness, and it is often reported as a feeling of skiking through the floor, or general spatial imbalance. Remember to breathe and gto gather yourself, and although the disorientation will not subside altogether, you will still be able to continue. *ou *ou may as well be tempted strongly to let your eyes drift shut. Resist this, as it is a ploy to cease the barrage or spiritual reality on the illusion7soaked brain. )eep your eyes focused forward and allow the image of the stance of the spirit impress i tself on your mind, or e"en on your "ision. &s you see these things, it is "ital not to relegate their "alue to the mind and imagination, but to place the importance of it on the reality of the spirit that stands i n that disclosed location. &s you see it in your mind, also sense it in your chest, in your heart, in that place within you that knows that you are in the presence of a thing that is beyond the flesh. &s the impressions are transferred to your mind from the spirit, it is your duty i order to obtain a real image of it to then transfer the image back to that place where the spirit stands, rather than letting it dwindle in the unreal annals of the brain. Staring at t he candle8s glow, glow, as the impression of the stance of the spirit comes to you, pro-ect this image back into its place of origin, seeing it either in your mind or your peripheral sight as standing in that that stance before you. $old this image in your your mind maintaining it for a matter of at least a few seconds, s ure that it is not going to "anish the moment that you take your attention away. away. &sk yourself, 9$ow does the spirit mo"eF9 'hat you are doing is step7bystep recei"ing and interpreting the whole figure of the spirit. *ou are lifting the "eil between your mind and the spirit. 'hen you ask this t his #uestion, you will likely see the spirit begin to mo"e. It is not that in asking this you cause the spirit to mo"e, but rather that the spirit has been in motion motion as any li"ing thing is, and in asking the #uestion you you are allowing
your mind to obser"e this motion. The spirit therefore is not put into motion by your #uestion, but it is your mind that is put into motion. *ou will see this outlined figure which stands in a certain place at a certain height and in a specific stance mo"e its arms, hands, head, legs or e"en mouth. It is difficult to get this far in your unco"ering of the image of the spirit without ha"ing percei"ed some of its more detailed features. &sk yourself slowly, 9what is the appearance of the spirit8s faceF9 or some reason that has eluded both myself and my spiritual associates, this #uestion elicits the most dramatic response from the obser"er, often being the obser"ation which ends the session of "iewing for the moment. Sometimes the image of its face will flash in the mind immediately, immediately, and appears threatening or hideous, making it nearly impossible to retain conscious control o"er the emotions. %ther times it may look pleasant, but as the mind attempts to analy!e the details of it, the brain begins to shut down the whole of the process, always the enemy of magick. The key to successfully working through this step is to a"oid the details and to accept the general image. The body of the spirit is made of a finer matter than that of the flesh, and it needs to be treated as an e"anescent thing, to be accepted as it is in the moment and ne"er confined to our expectations. Simply allow the image of the spirit8s face to come, and trasfer that image back to the spirit, outside of yourself in the world of the real. Take a moment before continuing to "iew the whole entit y that you are obser"ing. *ou *ou ha"e built a mental and a "isual image of it from what you ha"e recei"ed through your natural senses. (o"e your attention away from yourself, away from your mind, as your focus has surely shifted from the spirit to yourself, to your faulty imagination and your egoistic pride, and back to that space that was originally unco"ered as being occupied by the spirit. Return your senses to the awareness of the realit y of its presence, and now you do not ha"e to simply understad that it is in that place, but you can see it standing there as you ha"e analy!ed its form. &n interesting occurance occurance that is noted is that the spirit will seem to be suspended in ti me and space, allowing you to "iew it. In the realm of spirit, howe"er, time and space do not exist as concrete laws, but are constructs of the mind which are at times con"enient and at other times a nuisance. Do not allow the seeming suspension of the spirit to deter you from "iewing it and from sensing its presence. 0e sure, howe"er, that the image that you are "iewing is not in your mind, but is in the Temple, outside of yourself. 0e honest with yourself and you will ha"e little difficulty in trusting yourself. &sk, 9'hat does the spirit wearF9 The image will be added to automatically. *ou *ou may likewise ask as k yourself any #uestion that will assist in the un"eiling of the spirit. The final #uestion that you should ask for this exercise is not one for yourself alone, but is for both you and for the spirit. Sense the spirit there, and see it in your mental "ision as you ha"e unco"ered it. 0reathe in and feel the power which wtill floods through you reacti"ating within your chest. et your breath out by asking, 9Spirit, what do you sayF9 Initially the "oice of the spirit will seem garbled or nonsensical. Relax your mind and feel t he pressure that has gathered around your head, specifically around your ears. eel it throbbing with a beat that may seem chaotic, much in the same way that words would seem were t hey not understood by other people of the same tongue. The words spoken by the spirit in response to the #uestion will remain in the airt around you. Relax your neck, your forehead, your ears, your eyes, your eyebrows, and your mind, and ask yourself, 9'hat ha sthe spirit said.9 The words may come slowly to you, one at a time until you grasp each. &llow them to come as the will, and if it is necessary, necessary, write them on a piece of paper as they come. %ne of the most difficult parts of this whole process of communicating with spirits is to hear the "oice oand for that "oice to be heart in 9real7time.9 %ften, at first, the spirit8s mouth will mo"e and seconds l ater the first of a string of words will enter your mind. &s &s you progress at hearing the "oice and interpreting the words in your own nati"e language, words will appear in your mind, and then the spirit will mo"e its mouth to speak them. This is an inconsitency only in your obser"ation, and with time and practice will balance itself out. Report &ll :otes for Initiation Ritual

Ordo Ascensum Aetyrnalis Discourses Lessons of the Se%enth Flame S!orn "ni#ht of the Si$th Flame
Lesson I ;+xcerpted from 'orks of Darkness< The "isuali!ations and sensory impressions ha"e been, up to this piont, impressions only, filtered, calculated, and gi"en a logical "alue by the organic machine of the brain. Thos ethings beheld in the mind were not creations of it, but rather were symbolic images through which the mind was able to identif y an abstract with an absolute, in the same manner that the mind interprets all phenomena > the difference here being the depth of the phenomenon and the height that the mind must reach to interpret it. The task that remains is to deli"er these sums and "alues to the rest of the organism, defining to e"en the core of the ner"ous system the exact parameters of that which is seen, heard, smelled, tasted, felt, and instincti"ely known about the specific thing that once e"aded waraness altogether. 5a!ing through a black7backed mirror into nothing will show the Seer exactly thatB nothing. Scrying mirrors are powerful tools, howe"er, when they are actually employed in a purpose. 0efore humans learned to make and form glass into flat panes, ancient Sorcerers polish brass, copper, sil"er, marcasite, and most often obsidian to a reflecti"e sheen. Through these earliest scrying mirrors, 0lack (agicians would peer into the unseen worlds and speak with the male"olent. 'hile some purists insist that the %perator8s mirror be made of polished metals complementary of the astrological bodies of una, 6enus, or Gupiter, either crafted by the (agician himself or by a craftsman that is indeed a 1ractitioner of the &rts, in all actuality the 0lack (agician can make a suitable scrying mirror for a few dollars with materials he may already ha"e or that he can easily buy from any store. & simple piece of round, clear glass that is thick enough to resist easil y breaking will work as well as a slab of polished obsidian. Ideally, the diameter of the round glass should measure beween a foot7and7a7half to two feet, pro"iding for a greater panorama, yet not obtrusi"e in si!e. Simple black matte paint on one side of the mirror, enough to completely co"er the surface and allow no light whatsoe"er to shine through, pro"ides an excellent reflecti"e surface with the "isual depth needed to be used as a reliable scrying de"ice. 1repare the Temple with a chair facing south and a s mall table, upon which the scrying mirror should be set. The mirror should be leaned against an ob-ect or held in an ad-ustable plate holder so that it sits at about a ?4 deggree incline. 'hen seated in the chair and looking straight into the mirror, with the room lit up as in daytime, the %perator should ha"e a perfect "iew of either the ceiling abo"e his head or the edge where the wall behind him meets the ceiling. +ither way, no ob-ects such as ceiling lamps or his body should be reflected in the scrying mirror. Two black candles should also be set on the table, either in line with or slightly behind the scrying mirror, as to pro"ide light without casting a glaring reflection in the mirror. The %perator should be prepared also with the drawn sigil of the pirit Sastan, who has the ability to guide the Sorcerer into perfection of the art of scrying. This same sigil should be put away at the end of each scrying session with it, and should be brought out and reconsecrated each time your practice scrying until initial success is had.
$a"ing all other light sources shut out from the Temple, light the two candles and take a seat before the mirror. Inhale/ gather all of your tension, apprehension, and all of your thoughts and feelings from day7to7 day life in your chest, and exhale, feeling the negati"e attitudes and emotions lea"ing you with the breath, dissipating in the air. 'hen you are relaxed and your mind is clear, hold the sigil in your right hand and ga!e into it. Relax your stare and focus your mind on a "isuali!ation of the mirror, such being the target of the sigil consecration. In your mind, with your eyes still fixed on the sigil, see a clear mental image of the mirror no longer being a black "oid, but instead filled with images. Don8t try to make out t he images that you are seeing in the imaginary mirror, but simply know that they are there. $old the mental image of unknown figures appearing in the mirror until the sigil begins to open and flash. 'hen the sigil has opened and is flashing, mo"e your ga!e to the scrying mirror. The exact 9ga!e9 that is used in scrying is the same as is achie"ed in sigil charging. *our eyes should be relaxed, not searching for something that is not seen, but waiting to see so mething that has not yet manifested. This relaxed and recepti"e sight may not be difficult to achie"e, ha"ing mo"ed your "ision directly from the sigil which you ha"e -ust opened to the mirror. The mind should likewise be brought into a relaxed obser"ation of the mirror, kept from asking #uestions of the nature of the thing to be manifested and simply waiting to see for itself. The first manner in which the pro-ected "ision of Sastan will manifest i s as a white mist or fog appearing in the mirror. The black sheen in the mirror will spontaneously begin to dull, a white sheet of ethereal mist co"ering most of the surface of the glass. This should be recogni!ed as a signt that your scr ying senses ha"e awakened and are waiting for direct communication with the spirit. The mist may begin to clear not long after it has formed in the mirror. Some 1racticioners report seeing tiny points of light appearing in the mirror as the white fog clears, others claim that entire scenes lay waiting behind the mist, playing out in full splendor once the mirror is clear again. 0efore anything can be seen in the mirror, the ethereal "ision must first make some type of connection with your mind > with your general awareness. 5a!e into your scrying mirror and watch the white fog begin to clear from its surface. )eep your mind relaxed and recepti"e to the images which may come, rather than forcing something > anything > to appear. 'ith your eyes towards the mirror, bring your mind briefly and somewhat superficially back to the sigil. Remember the lines and the angles, and the circle that binds them all. In the same manner in which you di"ided your attention e#ually between a sigil and your "isuali!ed desire, focus your ga!e on the mirror, allowing yourself to become entranced by the abyss into which you are peering/ at the same time, bring to mind an image of an enormous python. Rather than trying to concoct a mental image of the most ferocious, slithering, creepy serpent that you can image, relax your mind and begin the "isuali!ation with the basic form of a large snake. 0ring its colors into focusB pale green, grey, and dull sil"er. %nce you can see these colors, bring your attention to the serpent8s head. &ll of it intricate details will naturally fill themsel"es in, until its black eyes show an intelligence and personality that could ne"er be imagined or duplicated. 'hen the mental image of the python is clear and sharp in your imagination, turn the ma-ority of your attention towards the mirror, the python remaining on the surface of your mind. Inhale deeply. &s you exhale, feel your "ision piercing through the darkness in the mirror. Repeat this, sensing that with each breath the mirror is becoming more ali"e and responsi"e to your "isual probing. )now that the pythong is not a thing created by and existing in your mind, but is an entity independent of your brain8s electrical currents. )now that the serpent could now be seen in the xcrying mirror if only that sight were fully restored. ike a child playing make7belie"e, imagine that the body of the pythong is swirling on the surface of the mirror. ook deep into the mirror and imagine the form of it, pro-ect the shape of the snake onto the black glass. sually, its at this point that the scrying senses reach a peak and a plateau, carrying the Sorcerer into the "ision until he has seen all. &s the image which was once in your mind is
pro-ected into the mirror, the surface of it will seem to darken, and perhaps to deepen, in the same manner that it filled with white fog at the onset of scrying. It can then be considered that your scrying senses are fully awakened and recepti"e, and need only to be dialed in to the right fre#uencies to see what lies beyond the glass. The first real success in scrying may come as a sharp and colorful mental impression of the serpent in the mirror, not originating from the mind and being pro-ected into the mirror, but seen as originating from the mirror and being pro-ected into the mind. The %perator will be able to watch the snake mo"e and s#uirm, and may e"en communicate with him in these mo"ements, the mind percei"ing what the eyes cannot, his imagination ha"ing released its control and the perception simply picking up where the creati"e mind left off. 'hile some may achie"e such clarity of perception in their first few scr ying attempts, this manifestation in itself is more likely to take se"eral da ys of disciplined practice. Continuing to scry into the pythong, or into anything else with the same focus and discipline, again and again, will e"entually bring the external senses into alignment with that which is seen by the inner mind. %nce the serpent can be seen in the mirror as clear, colorful and independently animated > either by the eyes or the inner sight > you may lea"e the serpent be, and retire the sigil of Sastan in the appropriate manner, gi"ing "erbal thanks for his assistence in awakening your senses thus far. The mirror should be co"ered in black cloth, preferably silk, and should be put where it will not be seen, touched, or damaged.
Lesson II *ou will learn here how to interact consciously and often using the physical senses with the energetic "ibrations of others. 0egin by placing your right hand about an inch off of a person8s skin. *ou can do this while gi"ing them a hug, patting them on the back, or in many other casual connections. &llow your hand to linger -ust an inch from their skin, and turn your attention to the energy flowing from them. Relax your arm, and sense the magnetic push and pull crated by their energy flux. If you8re able to do this long enough, you will find that their energy reaches an 9e"ent hori!on9, or a near7solid point in their aura. %nce you ha"e felt a person8s energy in the abo"e manner, now practice seeing it. *ou may ha"e caught yourself doing this unconsciously, and ha"e simply shaken it off. ooking at a person at least ? feet away, look directly into their eyes, e"en if they do not return your ga!e. Relax your mind and ga!e at them is if the person was a scrying mirror. Relax your eyes, relax your muscles, and allow your "ision to awaken. &t first, you will see a glow around the sub-ect8s body, which will either be bright or golden. Try to 9feel9 what color it might be, altough you likely won8t see this as the colors are usually to sensiti"e for the eyes to see. Report notes, and when you are able to clearly feel and see the energies, we will work on manipulating them in greater degrees with the next lessons.
Lesson III 1sychic 6ampirism must be learned as a tool and a weapon in your arsenal.
2. 'hen first learning to drain a person8s energy, stealing their power for yourself, you may need the help of a willing participant. Simply ask a friend, lo"er, family member, or other associate for her right hand, which you will hold, palm down, in your left. The right hand mo"es energy from the self, while the left hand mo"es energy into the self. &s long as you don8t ha"e a particularly sinister reputation, most people will ha"e little complaint in going along with whate"er you8re about to do. 6isuali!e a bright, blue light which fills the body of your sub-ect. Inhale, and feel this light mo"ing down her arm and through her hand, tingling your left hand as it lea"es her and enters you. +xhale, and rather than feeling the energy returning into her, sense it sealing itself inside of you with the exhalation, becoming your life7force rather then hers. Continue to pull her energy from her with a deep breath in and seal it within yourself as you breathe out. The first experimentations with "ampirism through touch will yield minor resultsB you will sense a sli ghtly heightened state of mind and sensation and your "ictim may notice a slight di!!iness or tiredness. 'ith each feeding of this type, you will find that you are able to drain more energy from your "ictim in a shorter amount of time, soon far surpassing the hight that was once achie"ed through blood feeding. =. %nce you are able to pull a considerable amount of energy from your "ictim as you shake her hand or touch her shoulder in passing, you will ha"e little use for this specific method of psychic "ampirism. sing the same "isuali!ation and breathing techni#ues as before, stand next to an unknowing "ictim, not touching her but sharing a close space, begin to drain the life from her, in a manner similar to the abo"e practice, inhaling as the energy is pulled from her and sealing it withiin yourself as if it were your own. It may initally re#uire more mental concentration to achie"e the same result, but should be much easier to master than the pre"ious method. +ach ti me you feed from a "ictim in such a way, put more space between the two of you. Soon, you will find yourself feeding from one specific person across a room, or as you pass sub-ect after sub-ect on the street. H. eeding from a "ictim through eye contact is best practiced when you are in a position to be sitting with others for an amount of time. 5ood testing grounds are restaurants, classrooms, pubs, ad a classic feeding ground is church. & 6ampiric &dept with whom I would 'ork and study with in a 0lood Temple took e"ery Sunday morning in a 1entecostal church, feeding from the energy that was being flung in e"ery direction. Select a target who is seated close by and is facing you. 0egin to feed from your target in the same way that was learned when practicing psychic "ampirirsm through close procimity/ it is rare for her to not look in your direction when he is being drained by you. 'hen she does, hold eye contact with her as long as possible. The moment your eyes meet, sense a definite link being established between you. 6isuali!ing this link as a blue ray of light may be helpful. *ou will find a greater pull of power from her through her eyes then e"er before. (aintain eye contact as long as you are able to, pulling her life from her through the ga!e. ookin into another person4s eyes, especially a stranger, for any longer than a passing moment tends to make most e"eryone uncomfortable. 0reak through this social barrier and use your "ictim8s discofmort as yet another opening into her soul. $er greater will, her unconscious understanding of her spiritual "iolation will gnaw at her mind until she rips her ga!e away from you. %nce she looks away, cease feeding from her and mo"e to a new target. 'hen you are able to initiate feeding the moment your eyes meet somenone else8s, you should be able to feed on anyone that is within sight. ?. eeding from multiple targets at once re#uires the de"elopment of what are often called 9astral tendrils9. These tendrils are spontaneous rays of light which attach to a person and siphon their energy into you. Seen with awakened "ision, tendrils look like small sunbursts whipping out from the "ampire8s aura, and sometimes take a manifestation similar to that of the photographed ectoplasm
of early 3448s psychic mediums. &t a party, or e"en at work or school, select two targets, preferably at opposite sides of you. Di"ide your focus between them, feeding from both of them at the same time. Try to "iew this feeding like you are stretching out your arms to touch both of your "ictims/ rather than your arms touching them, your astral body will respond instead. %nce you are able to di"ide your attention in such a way to make noticeable astral contact with your sub-ects, t he amount of energy that you drain from two "ictims may at first be o"erwhelming. Continue to practice time and again, until draining two "ictims is not only easy, but is found to be lacking. (o"e to three targets in the same wa y, working your way up to consciously feeding on fi"e targets at once. &t this point, the feeding mechanism will begin to react independantly, pulling energy from others without your conscious command, but "ery much within your awareness. *our astral body has thus been con"erted into a life draining machine. J. Set up the altar in your Temple with a black candle to the left and a red candle to the right. Close your eyes and "isuali!e your "ictim clearly, making out all of her features in parfect clarity. Relax your mind and allow her surroundings to come into "iewB her bedroom, kitchen, a club or restraint. 'here e"er she may be, allow yourself to gain a sense of it. Do not critici!e your impressions, but accept them as they come. %nce your "ictim is seen clearl y and is precisely placed in special reality, feel yourself mo"ing near to her, right next to her. &s was done with the pre"ious feeding techni#ue, atrech out your astral arms and place an in"isible hand on her chest, o"er her heart. 1ull her life out of her chest. It will flow with less resistance then e"er before, flooding you with her 0lood +ssence, draining her completely, often immediately ehausting her and possibly causing short7term illnesses until she is able to regenerate that which was st olen.

Deli"er the &ngels. Deli"er the &ngels. Deli"er the &ngels.9 Repeat this last sentence, allowing yourself to enter a gnostic trance or a state of
rapture, continuing the repetition until you can sense angelic powers and entities entering your room. %nce room is filled with light and angels, you are free to either con"erse with them, to recei"e information, or to re#uest assistance with some task. &ngels are extraordinarily powerful in mo"ing magickal currents. %nce you ha"e done this, dismiss them, again, 9In nomine dei nostri, et fili, et spiritus sancti, amen.9
Lesson II The second lesson of the +ight lame is to call, as in the pre"ious exercise, upon demonic or infernal entities. If possible, immediately before the ritual some sort of de"iant sexual acti"ity should take place. If this is simply masturbation fueled by sinister fantasy or the actual thing, this in itself will produce an appropriate en"ironment. ight ? black candles around you, counterclockwise. 0reathe and feel darkness closing in on you.

They recogni!e the lames, and re"ere them. Stand and hold your hands to your sides. State loudly, 9+"il Spirits, archfiends, deni!ens and armies of hell, #i%e me your po!er& 9 0reathe in and feel the demonic power entering you, o"erwhelming you, causing your own power to flare up like a million suns. Take a ride on the dark whirlwind, and when you return, thank the spirits and dismiss them... and sleep.
Lesson III *ou will need to begin by researching the roman 5od Ganus, paying special attention to references concerning his personality, dispositions, as well as any images of his appearance. Sit in a chair in the center of the room facing north. (editate to bring yourself to a point of neutral7being, not thinking, analy!ing, of e"en acknowledging your external en"ironment, but existi ng in7between. Draw an astral circle around you with blue, fiery energy. Seat yourself again in your chair. Close your eyes lightly and bring Ganus8 image into mind. (entally and imaginati"ely clarify this image, which will be a collaboration of all of the images that you ha"e seen of him, until what you see in your inner "ision is no longer an illustration or a sculpture, but is an actual being of flesh, as if from your direct memory rather than through ancient artwork. %nce your "ision of Ganus is real, you must pro-ect it into your i mmediate en"ironment, inside of the Circle. 0asically, imagine that instead of being a tiny image inside your mind, "isuali!e Ganus s tanding inside of the Circle before you, in the full si!e that he would stand were he real. Through this imagined presence, begin to sense a connection to the deity, know that he is aware of you and your efforts to contact him. CallB 9Ganus, the gates ha"e been opened. I, Sworn )night of the Se"enth lame, ask you to come to me, to descend here into this temple. Ganus, bless me with your presence, your wisdom, your insight, and your power.9 Continue this 9prayer9 as the energy within and around you dictates, letting it flow from you without force, but instead forcefully mo"ing through you. &s you do this, as you pray so, Ganus will enter the Circle, at which point you are to in"ite him into you. 9Ganus, enter me and fill me, I in"ite you in. Seat yourself in this "essel and become me.9 &gain, continue this in"ocation as intuition dictates. &llow Ganus to enter you, to become you. 1ay attention to the physical sensation, as you will feel your body ad-usting, possibly e"en transfiguring itself to meet Ganus8 form. If -anus asks what exactly you desire, your answer is to be 9to open the doors within myself, and to open the doors without.9 Report notes as usual.
Lesson IV In esson I6 of the +ight lame, you will learn the skill of mediumship. This is not so different from your pre"ious exercise, except that you will not be fully calling the entit y forth and then in, but will simply connect to it and will allow it to speak through you. ind and entity in any grimoire that you8d like to learn more from. 'rite out a list of #uestions that you8d like to ha"e this entity answer in depth. Draw the sigil, and ha"e an altar prepared before you, upon which two black candles should be burning. The sigil should be set on the altar. It is best to ha"e an assistant help you with this, sitting outside of the circle and asking the #uestions to you, as you are channeling the spirit, and recording your answers on paper. If this is not possible, ha"e a pen and notebbok ready for you on the altar as well. $a"e ready a chalice or bowl of salt water. Draw a Circle around your immediate working area. Call the Cardinal directions forth. %pen your chakras, and pay specialK attention to your Crown being opened and ready to recei"e. Dip the index and middle fingers of your right hand into the water, breathe in and fill yourself with Di"ine ight, and breathe out and allow this light to enter the water. Do this until it is filled wit h light. %pen the sigil as you ha"e pre"iously learned to do, and feel the spirit coming near. Call, 9Spirit ;name<, I call you here, into this Temple, to fill me with your knowledge. Take hold of my tongue that I may speak your words. Take hold of my brain, that I will know your thoughts. Take hold of my hands, that their gestures will be yours. Spirit ;name<, come9 Repeat 9;name<, come9 and sense its presen ce filling the Circle. It will not normally take a bodil y form, but instead will be a mist or a floating presence growing thick. 'hen it is fully inside of the Circle, stretch your arms out to your sides, opening your body to the spirit, and state, 9;name<, enter me.9 *ou may find yourself choking a bit as the spirit does enter you, as well as minor con"ulsions. Since this is not a full possession, you should be able to endure it without incident. 5i"e yourself a few minutes to integrate the new intelligence within you, and then ask ;or ha"e your assistant ask< the spirit8s name. 'ith this minor of a 9possesion9, you will retain enough of your own will and mind to dually ask #uestions as well as answer t hem, if you do ot ha"e an assistant. %nce the spirit has gi"en its name satisfactorily, begin asking the #uestions which you ha"e written down, recording your answers as well. 'hen the %peration has been comopleted, either you or your assistant can thank the spirit for coming and ask it to depart. It will resist. I ha"e yet to see a spirit not resist. &t this point, dip your right hand in the consecrated water and drip some of it on your head, saying 9;name<, depart9 Rub this on your face, saying the same. 'ash your hands in it, saying the same. Continue this down your body, feeling the spirit lea"ing you piece7by7piece as you wash yourself. &fter the spirit has left you, sprinkle the remaining water around the room, feeling the spiritual residue departing as you do so. Report all notes when this is complete.
Initiation - Receipt of the Ei#ht Flame 1repare yourself to recei"e the +ight lame. In a Circle of Candles, call forth your personal mentor within the %rder using the Seal of the Sworn )nights as well as any other words or signs that he has passed to you. Call him forth, and then call him in. %nce he i s you and you are he, allow him to take full control o"er your body, lifting your hands to the hea"ens or flinging them out to your sides. StateB 9I am prepared to recei"e the +ight la me.9 The lames will rush down into your Temple and into you. This will likely cause the 0aron to depart until you are filled with the lames entirely. Thank the 0aron or (aster for his ass istence. Report notes

Ordo Ascensum Aetyrnalis Discourses Lessons of the 'inth Flame S!orn "ni#ht of the Ei#ht Flame Proationer (aron
Lesson I Sit in a chair in the center of your room. (editate as was learned in your "ery first lesson. 0reathe in deeply, and as you breathe out, with your eyes closed, see the mist clear the room completely, lea"ing a mental "ision of your room that is much clearer then before. 0reathe in and feel your energy constrict around you. 0reathe out and feel your energy mo"e past your skin, radiating into the room. Do this a few times, enough that when you breathe, you do not think about it, but you reali!e the reaction of your spiritual bodies to your breath. 'ith your eyes closed, through your inner "ision, look around your room a bit. ook at the walls in front of you, pictures that might be on them, furniture that might be in frount of you. :ow look to your right side, without turning your head or opening your eyes. %bser"e e"erything that is in the room on your right. Do the same for your left. Do the same for the area of the room behind you. This first part may be a bit o"erwhelming, reali!ing that your spiritual "ision has absolutely nothing to do with the position of your body. *ou may stop here and restart later if you need to. If not, continue on. ocus your inner "ision on any one ob-ect in the room. (ake sure that it is one that is a few feet away from you. 0reathe in, prepare yourself to take a closer look at the ob-ect, and as you breathe out mo"e towards the ob-ect without mo"ing your body. *ou might notice that your body slumps, or that your breath stops. Don8t worry, you are still ali"e and you can always return. &llow your body to care for i tself... you ha"e greater needs to meet than breathing. &s you tra"el towards the ob-ect, keep only the ob-ect in sight. Don8t start looking around the room -ust yet. Gust mo"e in one direction, towards the ob-ect. The shock of this will often whiplash your spiritual bodies back into your physical body. This is okay. *ou can either stop here nor now, or start again. (o"e out of your body again, towards the ob-ect, making sure that you mo"e out of yourself with ian exhalation of breath. %ften, when you i nhale, you will begin to mo"e back into your body. &lso, if your mind turns to your body, that is where you will return. 'here the mind goes, the rest of you follows. So, to stay out of your body, keep your mind focused on the ob-ect, and as you breathe in, rather than mo"ing back to your body, feel your spiritual bodies becoming stronger, solidifying more in their place. %ne trick to doing this successfully is to allow yourself to become intoxicated by whate"er ob-ect you are "iewing. The more interested you are in seeing the ob-ect from this new "antage, reali!ing that you can mo"e around it, abo"e it, below it at will, that its colors are new and interesting, etc. will keep you in place. %nce you are able to remain outside of your body for more than a few seconds, I want you to slowl y turn
your attention to another ob-ect in your room, and as you breathe out, mo"e towards that ob-ect and "iew it in the same manner. 'hen you ha"e the hang of t his, I want you to look at your body. &s you breathe out, push yourself away from your body, to a"oid getting sucked back inside. Seein your body from othird person is the final test of whether you are imagining, or if you are experiencing it. inally, mo"e through your walls to an ob-ect outside of your room. I8ll often do this outside, and will mo"e miles off into the distance, stopping to look at a person or ob-ect far off. It is ama!ing the detail you can pick up, and the speed at which you can tra"el. Report notes.
Lesson II $a"ing learned how to exit your body and to ha"e your consciousness sur"i"e without the aid of your physical being, I now want you to learn how to actualy Tra"el. This will be done in two parts. . Tra"el to me. I will be aware of your presence here. Try not to see this as a 9test.9 Don8t worry about your presence being strong enough for me to notice, or 9what if he says he ne"er saw meF9 Si mply lea"e your body, and turn your attention to me. *ou will immediately mo"e towards me. :otice the cities, the countries, and the continents mo"ing by you at light speed, and notice you stopping in my home or in my Temple. Simply come to me, and t hen return home. Report this part of the esson to me when completed. A. Choose any other physical place you8d like to tra"el to. Tra"el there and obser"e it with your new "ision. Report this as well.
Lesson III Create colored representations of the fi"e Tatt"as. These are basic shapes and colors, related to the fi"e elements, as gi"en below. 3. ire is represented by a red, e#uilateral triangle. A. &ir is represented by a blue circle. 2. 'ater is represented by a purple crescent moon. =. +arth is represented by a yellow s#uare. H. Spirit is represented by a black o"al. Draw and color each of these on a seperate paper. Sit in a chair in the center of your room, holding one of the tatt"as in your hand. (editate, clear yourself of obstruction, and open your eyes to see the ikmage of the tatt"a in your hand. 5a!e into it in the exact same manner in which you would open a sigil when the tatt"a opens on the paper, turn your ga!e immediately in front of you, where you will be able to see the tatt"a floating in the air, usually o"er six feet tall, as a gateway into that realm. ea"e your body and enter the tatt"a. *ou will ha"e effecti"ely ta"eled from this world into another. Take notice of your surroundings, how you feel, any sounds, tastes or smells, etc. *ou will usually be greeted by a gatekeeper, who can show you around t he area, or can take you to the ruler
of that plane. Stay as long as you like, and tra"el as deep i nto the world as you care. &t any time, when you desire to lea"e all you need to do is turn around and the gateway will be behind you, regardless of how far away from it you ha"e tra"eled. 5o back through the gateway and re7enter your body. Do your best to not panic while in the other world and try to go directly from there into your body. &lways use the gateway that you ha"e opened, tra"el back to this realm, and then gently enter your body. Do this with all fi"e tatt"as, and report notes.
Lesson IV Study the first fi"e chapters of +"oking +ternityB orbidden Rites of +"ocation and, applying the principles of e"ocation, e"oke any one entity of your choce. *ou can choose to either "iew it through your scrying mirror, or through your inner "ision standing before you.
Lesson V +"oke the 0aron or (aster that has been assigned to help you, using the formula gi"en in the pre"ious esson.

Initiation - Receipt of the 'inth Flame &rrange your Temple for the ritual of e"ocation. $a"e with you the Seal of the Sworn )nights. This will be the sigil that you will be using in the e"ocation. I am the entity that you will e"oke, clothed in my +ternal body of lames. %pen the Seal of the Sworn )nights. 1ro-ect yourself through it into the lames. Call my name, either +ric &rchaelus )oetting, or the name by which I am known in the spiritual worlds, &rchaelus. Call my name se"eral times, mo"ing back towards your body as you do so. 'hen you re7enter your body, this call will also be made by your lips. Transfer my presence into the Triangle and call me forth there, with, 9&rchaelus, 1rince of the 1eople, 5rand +missary of the +ighteen lames, b y the full power and force of the lames which I hold, I call you into presence here before me, to bestow upon me the :inth Sacred l ame. &rchaelus come. &rchaelus come. &rchaelus come9 %nce I stand before you in the Triangle, step towards me as close as you can without lea"ing the Circle, and kneel upon your right knee. 0owing your head, state, 95rand +mmisary of the +ighteen lames, I am prepared to recei"e the :inth lame. Reach through the "eils of time, space and spirit, reach from the Triangle into this Circle, and pass this :inth lame to me.9 I will reach through the barriers, will place my hands upon your head, and you will recei"e the :inth la me.

Ordo Ascensum Aetyrnalis Discourses Lessons of the Tenth Flame (aron of the 'inth Flame
Lesson I ind a magick S#uare from either the Sacred (agick of &bramelin the (age, from +nochian (agickal Systems, from )ingdoms of lame, or from any other source of (agick S#uares. Rather than calling on one spirit, it will call upon sometimes legions. Set your temple up for a ritual of e"ocation, sa"e the Triangle, which will not be used here. 0urn either copal or dittany of crete incense in incense bra!iers either within the Circle, or at an y place outside of it. Draw the S#uare on a ?x? s#uare of paper. 0ring it and your dagger into the Circle with you. )neel facing south, meditate, draw a Circle around you, and set the S#uare on the ground in front of you, with the dagger set to the right of it, radey to be taken up when needed. Call upon the l ames "erbally to come near you, to rise up inside of you, and to enter this plane. %nce you feel them surging through you, tur your ga!e toward s the S#uare. ock into your mind your goal > what it is that the spirit can do for you. Try to see it as a still picture and allow yourself to feel the emotions attached to achie"ing tat goal. D% :%T feel the emotions of longing for it, but rather of ha"ing already achie"ed it, as that which is inside of you will manifest in the world outside. 5a!e I:T% the s#uare, as if you are seeing through it rather than looking at it. Relax your eyes and allow the energy of the S#uare to begin to come through, keeping your mind focused on your goal. %nce the energy starts flowing through the S#uare, some of its lines might disappear from the paper and then reappear, or they might seem to mo"e or physically "ibrate. This is a sign that the physical world is being transmuted by your %peration, that you are effecting change here and now. Continue concentrating e"en harder on your goal and allowing the S#uare to transform howe"er it will. %nce it is co mplete, the changes will cease and the whole S#uare will see m to be ali"e and "ibrant. This is what i refer to as 9opening the S#uare9. %ften, the letters inside the s#uare will disappear one line at a time, and will reappear. 'rite these down or memori!e them in the sw#uence in which they acti"ate. %nce the S#uare is open, it is ready to recei"e your command. 0egin by calling out the names within the S#uare in the se#uence in which tey were acti"ated. 1lace your right hand o"er the S#uare, not touching it but ho"ering an inch or so abo"e it. eel the la mes well up inside of you and flow effortlessly through your arm and out of your hand, being sucked up by the S#uare. &s you do this, also transfer your desire with the lames into the S#uare until it is gone and you cannot bring to mind that which you desired. Transpose the image of the S#uare into the empty space in front of you, becoming a gateway into the power of that S#uare. *ou will not be entering through this, but instead will be c alling the spirits and powers through it to you. State, 9I, 0aron of the :inth +ternal lame, ha"e called you near and ha"e opened the power of your S#uare to... ;State what it is you desire.<. &ppear now in this Temple before me to bring my desire to pass.

Come now into this Temple, spirits of the S#uare.9 'hen they ha"e materiali!ed, greet them, thank them, and restate your desire. &llow them to guide you as they may towards a more full accomplishment of your will.
1ut the S#uare away where it will not be found, and do not look at the face of it again. olding it in half will usually help with this, as you can transport it without looking at it. &s you come close to the S#uare from that point forward, you will feel its power radiating, your desire coming to fruition through its energy. 'hen your desire has been fulfilled, take the S#uare outside, unfold it and look at the face of it, thank the spirit for its help, and burne the S#uare, stating that you are releasing the spirit from your ser"ice. Report notes immediately following the ritual.
Lesson II ea"ing your body, mo"e abo"e your ceiling into the sky, and continue to rise, until you are no longer in the earth8s atmosphere. Call the name, 90inah9, sensing the "ibrations mo"ing through all of creation, and allow your "ision, and therefore your motion, to be directed to the planet of Saturn. &s you near it, notice that it possesss a spiritual double, which will draw into it spiritual matter, like a spiritual 9wormhole.9 Tra"el directly into the opening of this gateway, and you will likely find yourself in what can only be called t he &byss, the &causal Realm, or %uter Darkness. There will be others there who ha"e tra"eled that far, but ha"e become stuck or lost. *ou will hear them, but not likely see them. D% :%T try to help them. There is nothing you can do for them. They need to &scend on their own at this point. +xit the blackness. If you find yourself back at 0inah, call the name, 9&lgol9. *our "ision and motion will be directed far in the distance, to two bright stars near each other, one smaller than the ot her. Tra"el there, ant notice that the stars rotate around each other and that their plasmic matter drifts from one to the other, like a stream of energy and heat. It is in the center of this transfer stream that the gateway will be open. &lso notice the debris scattered around the stars. These are the planets that existed there long ago. They held intelligent and powerful beings who destroyed themsel"es by splitting what once was a single st ar into two stars. If instead of coming out of the abyss at 0inah, you find yourself instantly transported to &lgol, all you need to do is tra"el into the "ortex within the stream. Tra"el in between the planets, into the transfer stream, and allow yourself to mo"e into the gateway that is there. &gain, you will find yourself in the &byss, but this time it is much more "iolent and chaotic. Screaming, wailing, and hideous, male"olent noises will be heard. &lso, flashes of light and fire can be seen here. Do not become hypnoti!ed by the sounds and the lights, but instead lea"e the &byss. Call out the name, 9:aos9, and you will find yourself directed to an enormous star. &s you near it, you will see that it is a giant blue sun, emitting ultra"iolet light. Tra"el into the Sun and you will find that you enter a place beyond the &byss, into a realm of 5odhood. The light will be blinding and the power will be excruciating. 0ear it for a few moments, breathe in the power, and exit the gateway. Return your direction to the earth and tra"el there, back down into the atmosphere, through your roof, and into your body. *ou ha"e entered the &byss, ha"e retained your self with the dross and the fear remo"ed, and ha"e united yourself with the three great pillars of the metaphysical plane within our galaxy, the Triangular spread upon which all 0lack (agick is built. *ou can return to any of these as you wish, but take care to not stay too long, nor to become lost in it. &t any time you are in peril, call my name, and call upon the Sworn )nights, and e"en in the 0lackness of the &byss, the 1ower of the lames will become your (essiah.
Lesson III ea"e your body and either remain in your Temple, or tra"el outdoors. ook dow at your spiritual body and notice its shape, color, and density. Imagine now the image of any animal that you may choose. Solidif y yourself in your place, and rather than tra"eling towards that animal, instead call it to you. & spiritual form of the animal will come. %pen your arms, and it will leap into you. This will be "iolent, and somewhat painful, but allow it to ra"age the insides of your spiritual body. Turn your attention inwards and merge your identity with the animal8s. 0ecome the animal that you ha"e in"oked. :itice your spiritual legs bending backwards, your feet shrinking into paws or hoofs, your hands turning as well, your torso bending itself. 0ecome the animal. Take on its form entirely. :o longer are you human, but are not the beast. 5o out as a ghost beast and roam as it would, allowing yourself to unrestrict your beha"iour. $unt, mate, feed, or whate"er else the instinct of the animal dictates. Return to your Temple as the animal, and putting your spiritual hands on your Solar 1lexus, breathe out and e-ect the animal spirit from within you. :otice your spiritual body returning to a human form. <hough this is not a part of the esson, per se, if the same is done while still within your physical body, your body will at first contort itself and will react minorly in the same manner as the animal. +"entually, physical metamorphosis will take place, initally minor changes, but with enough practice, shapeshifting in this manner is possible on this plane. Such ad"anced operations of this sort are to be conducted far away from humans, howe"er. *ou may also, as you continue to progress, choose grander forms, such as a dragon or a phoenix. Do not, at this point, do so with godforms. This is dealt with later, with appropriate protections in place. Doing so without these protections can easily cause loss of sane comprehension, complete loss of higher reasoning, and fatality. &fter the first animal has been successfully in"oked and shifted into, spiritually, report notes.
Lesson IV sing the same method as pre"iously, exit your body, mo"e to a remote location, and look down at your astral body. 0reathe in, and rather than noticing your en"ironment contract around you, notice your spiritual body growing. &s you exhale, notice it solidifying in its si!e. Continue doing this until you ha"e become a giant, as large as you wish to become. +xhaling, releasing your si!el, return to your pre"ious percei"ed spiritual si!e. :otice the color of your astral body. 0ring to mind the color yellow, like the sun, and as you inhale, notice that your spiritual body takes this color into itself, until you are completely yellow. Take note of how you feel, how your body mo"es differently, what new powers you ha"e. Choose three other colors to shift into, and do so. &gain, doing this in your body will produce "ery physical results.
Lesson V sing the same methods as pre"iously, although you do not need to lea"e your Temple for this one, lea"e your body and bring your mind to the :ine lames which you possess. eel them filling and surrounding you. 0reathe in and notice that they are no longer powers which reside within or around you, but instead become them. Shift your entire being into the lames. This will only hold for a few seconds, due to the intensity of it, at which point you should return to your normal spiritual form. Repeat this a few times, experiencing the ecstasy of the lames as much as you can bear, and then return to normal. &gain, doing this in your physical body will produce physical results, although it will stir up the ower worlds with the recognition of a god walking amongst us. 1eople will fear you and will be in awe, while others will purposefully a"oid you. *ou can enter this state at any time, howe"er, to 0ecome the lames and experience instant &scent. This will also trigger instant )arma, howe"er, when all that you do that is not accordance with your destiny will be remo"ed from your life, not in weeks or months, but immediately. Instant )arma is a dangerous tool, only to be used when you are ready to lose e"er ything to 0ecome +"erything.
Lesson VI Sitting in a chair in your Temple, shut out all of your lights. %pen your eyes and see before you a great, black gateway opening. This is a scrying window, and can be used -ust like a scrying mirror. sing it as such, scry either into the random e"ents of the spiritual world, or into specific spirits, forces, or circumstances. )eep your eyes open throughout, allowing your inner "ision to translate to your real "ision what is occurring. &t least one entity will appear, and it may "ery well be a Sworn )night, 0aron or (aster. $old open con"ersation, taking notes on what is said. Report all notes.
Lesson VII +"oke more than one, preferably at least three entities to accomplish one, grand goal. Don8t set out a triangle of manifestation at all, but simply allow the spirits to materiali!e where they will.

Lesson VIII sing all that you ha"e learned about e"ocation, e"oke to the physical plane ;without the use of mirrors< three entities of your choise, on at a time, in seperate rituals at seperate times, usually with a cleansing period between each one. Take copious notes during and after each e"ocation, which you will forward to me as you go. The one stipulation is that at least one of these three needs to be a demonic entity, and one needs to be angelic. &ll three should ser"e different functions and should be e mployed in different tasks.

Ordo Ascensum Aetyrnalis Discourses Lessons of the Ele%enth Flame (aron of the Tenth Flame
Lesson I %pen your chakras usint the method outlined below. . The (uladhara chakra is located at the base of the spine, and manifests as a red wheel of light between the genitals and anus. Correlating with the most base, primal organs, the (uladhara chakra is related to the animalistic instincts of self7preser"ation and mating, on the most primiti"e le"el. The symbolic appearance of the (uladhara chakra is a four7petal lotus. The $indu deity representing this chakra, and said to reside therein, is 5anesha, the well7known 9elephant god9, the opener of doorways. The (uladhara chakra8s element is earth, and its mantra "ibration is &(. 34. The Swadhistana chakra manifests itself as an orange wheel of light in the area between the genitals and the na"el. Relating ob"iously to the reproducti"e organs of both sexes, the Swadhistana chakra corresponds to the generati"e, reproducti"e, and crati"e abilities of the indi"idual. The symbolic appearance of the Swadhistana chakra is a six7petal lotus. The $indu deity who dwells within this chakra is 6ishnu, thre preser"er of life. The Swadhistana chakra8s element is water, its mantra "ibration is 6&(. 33. The (anipura chakra manifests as a bright yellow wheel of light in the abdominal area. The (anipura chakra relates directly to the adrenal glands and pancreas, and is the storehouse for the emotions, as well as the generator of personal will, as well as the human will to power. The symbolic appearance of the (anipura chakra is that of a ten7petal lotus. The $indu deity dwelling with this chakra is Rudra, the fierce god of storms, fire, and the hunt. The (anipura chakra8s element is fire, and it8s mantra "ibration is R&(, the supreme mantra of spiritual fire. 3A. The &nahata chakra manifests as a bright, deep, green wheel of light directly o"er the heart, in the center of the chest. This is the ultimate center of Soul8s e mbodiment, the single place in the lower worlds wherein absolute peace can be found. The &nahata chakra is shown as a twel"e7petal lotus. The deity dwelling within this chakra is Ishta De"ata, which can be understood as one8s own personal deity, the god or goddes within that is always comforting, always protecting, always guiding, and always calling closer to &scent. The element of the &nahata chakra is earth, and its power is the healing, nurturing, life7gi"ing essence of the earth in its purest form. &nahata8s mantra "ibration is *&(. 32. The 6ishuddha chakra manifests as a light blue wheel of light o"er the throat. &side from the ob"ious attributes of clarity and communication pro"ided by this chakra, the 6ishuddha chakra also brings balance to the indi"idual8s understanding of themsel"es, to their intellectual abilities, and to their ultimate connection to and compassion for all other people. Sadasi"a is the deity within the 6ishuddha chakra, and it is also the foundation upon which Shi"a and Shakti8s personification
1ar"ati stand as the first of the three higher chakras leading to sel f7godhood and absolute &scent. The symbolic appearance of the 6ishuddha chakra is a sixteen7petal lotus, it8s alement is air, and its mantra "ibration is $&(. 3=. The &-na chakra manifests as an indigo wheel of light in the brow, slightly abo"e and exactly between the eyes. 'hile full and continuous acti"ation of the &-na chakra brings mental focus, crair"oyant awakening, prescient knowledge, and perfect memory, perhaps one of its most hidden powers is power itself/ one who has consciously de"eloped their attunement with the &-na chakra are granted thw power of the gods. This is not gi"en here superflously or lightly, but is meant #uite literally. Into the fully7acti"ated &-na chkra, the (aster can funnel any of his desires, and can release them from that indigo "ortex like Shi"a8s apocalypse into the uni"erse, and the whole of creation will answer. Instantaneous manifestation of desires, obliteration of obstacles, all forms of alchemy and magick, and the purest forms of creation and destruction are reali!ed through the &-na chakra. The deity dwelling within the &-na chakra is &rdhanarish"ara, the perfect union between Shi"a and Shakti. The &-na chakra possesess two lotus petals, one on either side of the chakra. 1ure, indigo flame is the element of this chakra. 3H. The Sahasrara chakra manifests as a thousand "iolet lotus petals on the crown of the head, and is the ultimate attainment of 5od Reali!ation and union with the +ternal. ull and permament acti"ation of the Sahasrara chakra brings the indi"idual into a state of Christ Consciousness. The Sahasrara chakra corresponds with the pituitary gland, which facilitates the brain8s communication with the whole of the endocrine and ner"ous systems in the body, as well as with the thalamus, which allows the whole of the brain to communicate, recei"ing and deli"ering information in a usable format throughout the entire brain. 'hile "arious deities ha"e been credited as presiding o"er the Sahasrara chakra, it is indeed inhabited by one8s own 5odself, what is often referred to as 9the Inner 5uru9, which is in actuality an externali!ed form of the Supersoul, internali!ed within this chakra.
2. 0egin by entering a light, meditati"e state. It is not necessary here, at the beginning, to enter a deep 5nostic trance, as the "ibrations, mantras, and the circulation of energies will cumulati"ely bring you deeper into yourself than most meditati"e techni#ues are capable. 6isuali!e in your mind a bright light abo"e you. *ou8re not re#uired to see a cloud, a column of light, or e"en a concentration of light, but simply a bright light. )now that you are not merely imagining this light, but that you are tuning in to a thing that was and is alwa ys present. &s your practice with this method of chakra work increases, the light will become "isible to your physical e yes, as if a million watts of florescent light is turned on abo"e you. %nce you see this light, sense it no longer lingering abo"e, but instead feel its rays flowing down upon you, touching your head, and bring the fullness of your attention to your Sahasrara chakra. In fact, attempt to transfer your entire consciousness, your entire sense of being, into the Sahasrara chakra, as if you no longer exist in your body as a whole, but that your entire existence lies in that chakra. 6ibrate the words, 9&um 6yam 6yasade"aya :ahmah9 nine times, with each repetition the light abo"e funneling down into your head, into your chakra. &s you "ibrate these words of power and as the light does descend to you and take residence there, you will likely begin to feel slightly di!!y, and you may find breathing somewhat more difficult thatn before. *ou will feel, and will possibly see many strange things as you proceed through this %peration, and it is imperati"e that you do proceed, rather than stopping to catch your breath or to regain your bearings. =. 1ractice 1ranayama, or control of breath, imhaling deeply and slowly, holding that breath, and then exhaling slowly. The tingling in your head caused by the initial acti"ation of the Sahasrara chakra will likely increase, as will the di!!iness. Do not mistake this for simply hyper"entilation, for if you consider it, you really are not breathing any more than you would if you were holding a light
con"ersation with a friend. Recogni!e that the di!!in ess is due to the increased energetic circulation through your being, which is not only wuickening your blood flow, but is also causing your entire adrenal and pitary systems to perform at their peadk. &fter a few repetitions of inhalation > holding > exhalation, mo"e your entire consciousness into your &-na chakra. eel the indigo energy streaming both into and out of this chakra, and see the two lotus petal of either side of it. %nce you ha"e fully and consciously connected with the &-na chakra, "ibrate the words 9Sohung &kaal9, 9Immortality of the Soul9, which indeed is as power granted by the full acti"ation of the &-na chakra. 0reathe i in deeply, and as you breathe out, let the words building up power in your &-na chakra. H. 0ring the fullness of your consciousness into your 6ishuddha chakra. This experience of transferring and locali!ing your consciousness to these spiritual centers will grow, not only with repetition of this practice, but also from one chakra to the next. 6iew the 3? petal lotus, as if you are in the center of it, each petal glowing a bright, light, blue color. 0reathe in deeply and slowly, feeling the lightness and the clarity of this chakra, and as you slowly let the breath go, allow your consciousness to sink again, into the &nahata chakra. ?. 0ring the fullness of your consciousness into the &nahata chakra and "iew the 3A petal lotus around you. Inhale, feeling the peace and serenity of the chakra all around you, as well as the growth and healing that occurs whene"er this chakra is acti"ated. *ou will begin to notice that these experiences are not simply taking place in your awareness, or in your locali!ed energy centers, but that your en"ironment, the world around you, shifts as well, the exterior reality momentarily reflecting the internal state. &s you exhale, allow your consciousness to sink from your chest into your stomach, into your (anipura chakra. J. 0ring the fullness of your consciousness into your (anipura chakra and "iew the 34 petal lotus around you. Inhale and feel the spiritual fire warm your nostrils and fill your chest with heat. &gain, this may cause a similar reaction in your en"ironment, your room suddenly feeling warmer and perhaps more chaotic. &s you breathe out, allow yourself to sink lower, into your Swadhistana chakra. . 0ring the fullness of your consciousness into your Swadhistana chakra and "iew the ? lotus petals around you. 0reathe in, filling yourself with creati"ity, life, -oy, and security. &s you release the breathe, release yourself down into the final chakra. . 0ring the fullness of your consciousness into your (uladhara chakra and "iew the = lotus petals around you. 0reathe in and sense the earthiness of the chakra, the grounding of your energy in this chakra. It is best at this point to seat yourself on the floor, if you did not begin this exercise seated such. &s you exhale, sense all of the energy that you ha"e collected mo"ing not only down and out of your (uladhara chakra, but also draining from your spine into the ground. (ost a"ailable occult writings instruct in the "isuali!ation of roots spreading out from your spine into the ground in order to 9ground9 your energy, but I ha"e found that this is perhaps too literal a "isuali!ation for the real manipulation of pure energy. Instead, simply sense the energy that is, sense the power that has built and has tra"eled down your body. It is real and can be experienced as real. &ll that is necessar y is to sense that energy which is now pooled in your (uladhara chakra drains into the ground like water, seeping from you and returning to the earth. This may sound spiritually exhausting, as if you are gi"ing up all of your energy completely, but in reality it is refreshing, allowing you to start anew and to rebuild your )undalini energy in purity. 34. The abo"e se"en processes of locali!ing your consciousness in each of your chakras and connecting with their power acti"ates them in an initial wa y. <ough this gi"es each chakra a primary spiritual charge, this does not mean that they are automatically not blocked, counter7rotating, or in any other way functioning in a less7than desirable manner. *our full being, the combination of all your bodies,
is a great crossroads, and that crossroads is protected b y doorways that need to be opened. In $induism, the De"a 5anesh, the common elephant7figured 9god9 is the opener of doorways and the remo"er of blockages. To truly gain access to the first chakra, the (uladhara chakra, and therefore to the entire energetic system within your being, the assistance of 5anesh and his tremendous power can be called upon by calling his mantra 9&um 5am 5anapatayeh :amah9. (odern )undalini *oga follows the Indian tradition of singing these mantras in belching and erratic "ocal fluctuations. 'hile I am not going to condemn this as incorrect, I ha"e found that, as a western occultist and spiritual Tra"eler, gi"ing these mantras in one clear, elongated breath in"okes the power of the mantra fully in the first repetition. Inhaling through your nose slowly and deeply, bring your attention to your (uladhara chakra, feeling the tightness of all of the muscles, as well as the tightness of the spiritual energies blocking the ascent of )undalini. &llow your exhalation to assume the mantra, 9&um 5am 5anapatayeh :amah9, exhausting all of your breath in the mantra. *our muscles will relax slightly and you may feel a strange and new electricity running through your spine. Repeat the mantra, feeling the muscles around your chakra relaxing more, the energy opening up, and e"en the ground beneath you itself opening to offer up its power. Repeat this mantra again, until you can feel all the blockages in your root chakra breaking and crumbling. 33. Return your consciousness fully into your (uladhara chakra, pulling all of the energy that in the earth beneath you into it, re"eling in the openness and clearness of the chakra, the recepti"ity of that shining spiritual organ. Inhale, feeling the throbbing power at the base of your spine, your anus, and the lower part of your genitals. &s you exhale, allow the breath to carry the 0i-a (antra 9&(9 out of the lower parts of your body, through your throat, and from your lips. These 0i-a (antras are 9pure mantras9, in that they possess power of their own, they create substantial change e"en without the aide of intention and will. These are the mantras that were uttered by 0rahma to bring creation into existence, which are spoken by 6ishnu to keep all things in balance and harmony, and which will be whispered by Shi"a to bring the uni"erses to a fier y collapse. &s you exhale this 0i-a (antra, it will resol"e the (uladhara chakra entirely, opening it, energi!ing it, and clarifying it to a greater extent than is possible with any amount of "isuali!ation. 'ith the gi"ing of the mantra, bring your consciousness and the energy that is pulsing in your (uladhara chakra into your Swadhistana chakra. 3A. The )undalini power that has been cleared and raised from the (uladhara chakra now resides in your Swadhistana chakra, and of its own force begins to purify that chakra. Sense the power that you ha"e raised into your Swadhistana chakra throbbing and swelling, and feel the chakra opening like a blooming rose. Inhale, sensing the clearness of the chakra and feeling the complete relaxation and recepti"ity of the entire genital areal. +xhale, and as you mo"e your consciousness and )undalini up into your (anipura chakra, "ibrate the 0i-a (antra 96&(9, the power of the mantra completing the opening and acti"ation of the Swadhistana chakra and allowing you to mo"e upwards without restraint. 32. +nergi!e and open the (anipura chakra as before, inhaling and sensing the complete opening and clearing of it. +xhale, bringing your consciousness and )undalini into your &nahata chakra with the 0i-a (antra 9R&(9. The 9R&(9 0i-a (antra in parcitular in"okes the purest element of fire, burning away all impurity not only in the (anipura chakra, but in the whole being as well. &s you mo"e upowards out of the (anipura chakra and gi"e this mantra, feel the fiery power of the mantra and the chakra exploding through your entire body as the chakra opens completely. 3=. Dwell inside of the &nahata chakra, and as it is purified by the )undalini power which has been magnified by the pre"ious chakras, sense the extreme silence and serenity of the place. It is in this silence that you will be able to connect wish 9Ishta De"ata9, or your own personal De"a, the god that dwells within your heart. 'hisper the name, 9Ishta De"ata9, calling out to your own personal deity
within you. Inhale, feeling absolute peace, lo"e, and contentment. &s you mo"e from the &nahata chakra to the 6ishuddha chakra, "ibrate 9*&(9. 3H. +nergi!e and open the 6ishuddha chakra, inhaling and sensing the complete opening and clearing of it. +xhale, bringing your consciousness and )undalini into your &-na chakra with the 0i-a (antra 9$&(9. 3?. Dwell in the &-na chakra, recogni!ing that it is from this place, from this chakra withing yourself, tht the entire uni"erse is created. It is from this chakra that you crate your en"ironment, your world, your circumstances and your e"entual destiny. To full acti"ate the &-na chakra, call upon the power of &gni, god of fire, with the mantra 9&gni Tanno 1racodayat9, sensing the flood of blue flame in your &-na chakra sweeping down into the lower chakras, burning away any remaining impurities. 3J. eel your &-na chakra, the area in the center of your forehead, throbbing with pressure. &s you exhale and again "ibrate 9R&(9, to in"oke the element of fire to complete the cleansing and opening of this chakra, roll this sensation of presure that has built up in your forehead up your head into your Sahasrara chakra. This may take some practice, but as you do it and as you transfer the pressure from your &-na chakra into your Sahasrara chakra, the physical encrustations on the pineal gland break away, clearing you of addictions and opening your being to s piritual light and understanding. (emory will also impro"e, as will mental clarity, foresight, as well as a deep connection with your spirituality. 3. :otice again the pure light abo"e you, which has not mo"ed since the onset of this exercise. Sensing your Sahasrara chakra beaming with light, mo"e your consciousness from that chakra into the di"ine light abo"e you by "ibrating either 9%(9, or 9Sat :am.9 3. &ll of your chakras are opened, acti"ated, energi!ed, and are functioning to their full potential. Sit and contemplate this, returning your consciousness into your body as a whole, and indeed feeling that wholeness of your self. &s you go about life, you will notice the glow about you, the connectedness that you seem to ha"e with your en"ironment, your world, other people, and your ultimate spirituality. %thers will notice this as well, and will often in#uire as to the noticeable glow. This will fade, howe"er, as the frustrations and the monotony of life grinds on you. Repeating this exercise daily, usually in the moring before lea"ing your home, will not only keep you centered and spiritually focused, but you will also notice that your days become less stressfull, circumstances automatically aligning themsel"es to your higher spiritual "ibrations. Report notes.
Lesson II %pening chakras as in pre"ious lesson, sit in silence once you are open and breathe in deepl y. &s you exhale, "ibrate 9$uuuuuuuu9 with all of your breath. 0reathe in again, and do the same. Continue this meditation as long as you can, feling the peace and lo"e of the ight of 1ower building in you. Silence your lips and hear $u continuing to "ibrate through your being without being spoken. Close your eyes and see in your inner "ision the figure of a man. It will begin as a "ague outline in your inner "ision, but will gradually clear as you relax and allow it to. 'ait patiently, still "ibrating $ throughout your being, until the image is as clear in your mind as if you are seeing it with your eyes. It may be me, or it may be another, but either way, it is a (aster come to guide you. Con"erse with him shortly, thank him, and open your eyes. *our room may seem a bit brighter than before, and the peace will remain with you for some time. Report notes.
Lesson III Repeating the pre"ious esson, see the (aster in your inner "ision. &s you continue to "ibrate $, you will reali!e that the (aster is in the room with you. Step out of your body and you will find yourself there with $im. *ou will see him or her standing in your room in pure spiritual light. &sk him to Tra"el with you, and he will lead you to some physical places, usuall y natural places, and will explain the importance of these to you. This is the first step of Soul Tra"el. Report notes.
Lesson IV 6ibrating $, see in your mind the (aster Suhnam. $e is a large ma with darker skin and short black hair, usually wearing a tan robe. &s his image clears in your inner "ision, you will reali!e that he is far awa y, physically. See in your inner "ision his surroundings clearing as well, until you can see the room that he is in. Continue to focus on this until you find yourself in the room with him. This is full Soul Tra"el. *ou will ha"e entered the $indu )ush mountains, to a secret temple where Suhnam teaches. +nter the Temple and find yourself before Suhnam. $e appears as a large, Tibetan man in a brown robe with short hair. $e exists on the physical plane, as well as all other planes at once. $e often is teaching classes full of people, so simply sit in and learn. *ou will notice that some of these people are physical, while others ha"e Soul Tra"elled there as you ha"e, to learn from him. nderstand that none of this is imagined, but is "ery real. If you can hold on tho the reality of it, you will solidify your Soul Tra"el. 'hen you ha"e the opportunity, ask Suhnam if you may read from the Scriptures of ight. It is a large book written on gold leaf. Read from this as much as you are able, as the information within is staggering. Con"erse with Suhnam as is appropriate, as he can teach you mastery o"er your physical body, your energies, and your en"ironment. %ften, returning from Soul Tra"el is much like -umping into a body for the first time... your body will ha"e to ad-ust #uickly to your energy, and it might feel like an electrical shock. 'hen I return from Soul Tra"el I can feel my heart thud to life and I gasp for breath as if my body had died while I was away. Return to the Temple to learn from Suhnam as much as you need in order for him to allow you to "iew the Scriptures of ight. *ou may also mention my name, &rchaelus, as I am known on the spiritual planes, and tell him that I sent you. This tends to open up some doors. Report notes.
Lesson V %pening Chakras as before, sing close your eyes and "ibrate the name, 9Suhnam9. $e will come to you. &sk him to guide you to (aster Darshwan, who is a tall, muscular man with blond hair but slightly asian lookin eyes. *ou will lea"e this physical plane trough a gateway, and will be led to a brilliant palace, sometimes looking like a apyramid. Climbing the steps, enter the gates, and you will find Darshwan, most l ikely teaching a class as Suhnam was. &gain, ask to see his copy of the Scriptures of ight. <hough some words may come into "iew, as he resides in the astral plane, the ideas will flow from the pages like power, taking sometimes weeks to sort through the information. Return with Suhnam to your physical body. Suhnam will also instruct you iin how to better Soul Tra"el. Throughout the remainder of your &scent, Suhnam and all of these (asters will remain with you, guiding you and waiting for you to take a seat at Their table.
Lesson VI Return to Darshwan8s Temple, without calling upon Suhnam, and speak with $im concerning control of the astral currents. $e can teach you much about this, and about manipulating the illusion to your ad"antage. $e may often refer to the Scriptures of ight, gi"ing you another chance to read from it. Return to your body.

Lesson I The irst esson of the Twelfth lame is to enter the causal plane, go to the Temple of ight, and ask to "iew the &kashic Records. This will gi"e you access to all information. *ou will specifically be looking for information concerning your pre"ious incarnations, or your existence before this incarnation. To get to the Temple of ight on the Causal 1lane, simply turn your inner "ision towards it, and you will be able to "iew its appearance, at which point you will be able to tra"el there. *ou may feel some pain in doing this, as you will shed your astral body during the Tra"el. (aster Luan! will likely be the (aster who will greet you, and he may re#uire you to study with him or fulfill some other re#uirements before allowing you to "iew the &kashic Records, after which he will guide you to them. Report notes.
Lesson II The second lesson of the Twelfth lame is to pathwork the Tree of ife, from (alkuth to )ether, e"oking the &rchangel of each sphere with the re#uest for their knowledge and power, and then &ssuming the 5odform of the traditional planetary deity. *ou can do this re"ersed, if you wish, to assume the godform and in that body perform the e"ocation, if you like. %nce you ha"e reached )ether, work your way D%': the backside of the Tree, e"oking the +"il Chiefs until you are back at (alkuth. It is your task to dimplomatically sub-egate each of these &rchangels and +"il Chiefs, t hrough your own (agickal 'ill, after which they will all ser"e you fully, will administer to you at will, and will grant you familiars to assist you in daily life. 0elow is an excerpt from +"oking +ternity which gi"es the details of each Sephirothic and Lli ppothic Sphere. *ou will need to research to find sigils for each of the entities, and for at least a few you will need to intuiti"ely create your own sigil for them, as none exists on file. 5i"en below is a concordance for each Sephirah, its planetary correspondent, and the powers and abilities of the angels of each. 3?. The Sephirah of (alkuth is represented in the physical plane as earth. Its angels ha"e power o"er the four elements of fire, water, earth, and air, as well as the cardinal directions of north, east, south and west, each direction and element ha"ing an indi"idual power and purpose. 'hile the specific elemental spirits are treated in their own category apart from the &ngelic %rders and Sephiroth, the ruling angels of (alkuth are dealt with in the same manner as the angels of the remaining ten Sephirah. (alkuth is ruled o"er by the archangel Sandalphon. 3J. Sephirah *esod is represented in the physical plane as the moon which orbits the earth. Its angels ha"e power o"er the initial forms of ritual (agick, witchcraft, and illusion, as well as sexuality and
the minor currents of intuition. *esod is ruled o"er by the archangel 5abriel. 3. The Sephirah $od is represented in the physical plane as the planet (ercury. The angels of $od are gi"en power o"er the sciences, especially medicine and alchemy. They are great instructors in these arts, as well as ha"ing miraculous ability to heal any malady and to ad-ust the elements of the lower world to pro"ide for the spiritual &scent of the (agician. ¬her ability of the angels of $od is to assist the +"ocator in disco"ering the secrets of (agickal Initiation, opening doors for further spiritual growth and self7disco"ery, either as a solitary 1ractitioner or through the "ehicle of a religious %rder. The archangel ruling o"er the sphere of $od is (ichael. 3. The Sephirah of :et!ach is represented in the physical plane as the planet 6enus, which has for millenia been synonymous with lo"e and peace. &side from their power o"er these in"isible emotional currents, the angels of :et!ach ha"e great influence o"er the forces of passion, in its many forms. It was known to the Sumerians, 5reeks, and Romans that the 5oddess of 6enus, by her many names, was both the matrown of lo"ers and the defender of warriors. If e"er the heart is full y engaged in a cause, whether that cause be for procreation or for destruction, for art or for death, the 6enusian 5oddess dwelled in that heart. $aniel is the archangel that rules o"er :et!ach. A4. The Sephirah Tiphareth is represented in the physical plane as the sun, the source of all light and abundance in our solar system. &s such, the angels of Tiphareth ha"e power o"er wealth, health, protection, and prosperity of all sorts. &ll that is good and life7sustaining is go"erned by these angels. The archangel ruling o"er this Sephirah is Raphael. A3. The Sephirah 5eburah is represented in the physical plane as the planet (ars. The angels of 5eburah ha"e power o"er power itself, o"er strenght and "itality. In this sphere and its inhabitant angels i s held the currents of domination and "ictory through aggression. The archangel ruling o"er 5eburah is )amael. AA. The Sephirah Chesed is represented in the physical plane as Gupiter, the largest planet in our solar system. Its angels ha"e influence o"er the powers of leadership, rulership, and great affluence. Chesed is ruled o"er by the archangel T!ad#iel. A2. The Sephirah 0inah is represented in the physical plane as the planet Saturn. The angels of 0inah possess knowledge of the most ancient teachings and the most secret doctrines, as well as ha"ing power o"er death, destruction, disease, and ill7fortune. It is known to some adherents and %rders of Traditional Satanism and Dark &scent that 0inah is one of the three spiritual gateways in the whole of the uni"erse which leads into the realm of the Dark 5ods, which is an acausal dimension lying deeper beneath creation than e"en the abyss. 0inah is the realm of pure understanding, the likes of which are deathless and ageless. The archangel ruling o"er this dark sphere is T!aph#iel. A=. The Sephirah of Da8ath is often called the 9in"isible Sephirah9, meaning that it has no corresponding planet, although modern occultists such as Mechariah Sitchin belie"e that it is represented by the planet :ibiru which has an orbital pattern outside of the solar orbit of the remaining planets, and which passes into our solar system e"ery 2,?44 years, bringing with its return apocalyptic maelstrom. %thers of a darker influence posit that a wormhole or an actual physical gateway into another dimension exists in the space between the planets Saturn and :eptune. %t her, perhaps more ob-ecti"e, occult philosophers relate the Sephirah to the planet 1luto. The 9angels9 of Da8ath are as hidden as the Sphere itself, and are said by many )abbalists to ne"er ha"e common intercourse with mortals and (agicians, but ser"e a $igher unction for those that are ready to cross t hrough the abyss into the realms of 5odhood. *et another "iew is that Da8ath i the Sephirotic S phere linking the Sephiroth to the Llippoth, or the Tree of Death, also called the +"il and &d"erse Tree. &s such, the 9angels9 of the sphere of Da8ath would in actuality be the Llippothic demons. Regardless, the powers emanating from this in"isible Sephirah are those of the inal Initiation of the &spirant, the destructio of the ower Self, which may ha"e the ent result of the absolute obli"ion of the indi"idual, or the resurrection of the 5od within. Spiritually and (agickally tra"ersing through Da8ath is the end of the mortal and all of his fallible comprehension, and is the 1ath to the greater understanding that all is nothing. &s it seems with all things relating to the sphere of Da8ath, there is great argument concerning the archangel of the hidden Sephirah. (ost traditional )abbalists claim that since Da8ath represents the abyss, wherein nothing can dwell, there is no archangel ruling o"er it. In opposition is the thought that the archangel &mahiel is gi"en reign o"er the powers and entities of Da8ath, while others claim that it is none other than Choro!on. AH. The Sephirah Chokmah is represented in the physical plane by the planet :eptune. The angels of this Sphere ha"e dominion o"er the higher faculties of intuition and seership. The word 9Chokmah9 is translated to +nglish as 9wisdom9, and it is t his non7intellectual comprehension that Chokmah8s
angels both contain and can culti"ate in the +"ocator. The archangel ruling o"er Chokmah is Ra!iel. A?. The Sephirah )ether is represented in the physical plane by the planet ranus. The &ngels of )ether ha"e dominion o"er the pure knowledge of Di"inity, an can assist the (agician in disco"ering this 5odliness within himself. The archangel presiding o"er )ether is (etatron. AJ. :ahemoth, also called ilith, is identified as the imbalanced Sephirah of (alkuth, and is translated as 9+"il 'oman.9 The energies and demons of the Sphere of ilith ha"e influence o"er the carnal aspects of mortals, leading them into lustful and 9sinful9 acts which would pull them away from spiritual &scent and towards the state of an instinctual biped. The +"il Chief or 5rand Demon of ilith is :ahemah. A. 5amaliel is identified as the imbalanced Sephirah of *esod, and is translated as 9The %bscene %nes.9 The Demons of 5amaliel further the e"il work of the demons of ilith, going beyond mere pro"ocation to moral animalism in their power o"er corruption of mind and heart. 'here the angels of *esod instill the initial sense of power and (agick in the life of the +"ocator, the wicked angels of 5amaliel plant the seeds of malice. 5amalies is, interestingly, ruled o"er by the 5rand Demoness ilith. A. Samael is identified as the imbalanced Sephirah of $od, and is translated as 91oison of 5od9. 'here the angels of $od teach medicine and science, the demons of Samael teach the art of re"ersing the health of others and forbidden aclhemy of the darkening of the soul through Demonic Descent. 'here the (ercurial spirits and angels guide the (agician in the sciences which bring oneness wit h 5od, it is a forbidden metallurgy and alchemy that is taught by the dark angels of Samael. The Llippah Samael is ruled o"er by the +"il Chief &dramalech. 24. &8arab Marak is identified as the imbalanced Sephirah of :et!ach, and is translated as 9The Ra"en of Dispersion9. The demons of &8arab Marak are often seen in their manifestations as ra"ens with the heads of demons. Their control is ironically o"er lack of control. 'hen :et!ach is in perfect harmony with $od, intelligence and passion unite to propagate harmony and to pro"ide a continous flow of Di"ine o"e into the lower worlds. 'hen they are not balanced, &8arab Marak and all of its demons reign o"er unbridled lust, greed, and -ealousy, which can result in the crimes of rape, theft, and murder. The &rch7Demon ruling o"er &8arab Marak is 0aal. 23. Thagerion is identified as the imbalanced Sephirah of Tiphareth, and ais translated as 91ainful (o"ers9, or 9Disputers9. The demons of Thagerion manifest themsel"es as great, black giants full of anger and wrath towards e"en their allies. They ha"e power o"er enmity, settings lo"ers, families, societies, nations, and e"en worlds against one another. They are go"erned by the 5rand Demon 0elphagor. 2A. 5olochab is identified as the imbalanced Sephirah of 5eburah, and is translated as 9the 0urners with ire9. The demons of 5olachab ha"e the power of arson, making the solar light that once shone o"er all things in bounty to be used for bane, making red with flames all t hings that once were green. 5olachab is ruled o"er by the +"il Chief &smodeus. 22. 5a8agsheblah is identified as the imbalanced Sephirah of Chesed, and is translated as 9the Disturber of &ll Things.9 Rather than presiding o"er creation as leaders in the manner of the angels of chesed, the demons of 5a8agsheblah use their power and abilities to lead the uni"erse into disararray. & greater function of these demons is to teach the Llippoth &rts to the 0lack (agician, whereby he may utili!e the same powers and energies as the demons, and may reign as a 5od of Darkness upon earth. This Sphere is go"erned by &staroth. 2=. Satariel is identified as the imbalanced Sephirah of 0inah, and is translated as 9The Concealers.9 The demons of Satariel are gi"en the power of concealment, of secrecy. 'hile this power, at first glance, may seem not only "ague, but also unimpressi"e, in 'orking with Satariel8s inhabitants it #uickly becomes clear that one of their greater functions is to perform and to teach the concealed arts, or the secret arts, especially those in"ol"ing the recalling of chaus and baneful (agick. These secret %perations offer the Dark Initiate some of the most potent keys to demonic power. The ruler of Satariel is the notorious +"il Chief ucifuge. 2H. Da8ath is the ninth Llippah, whose attributes are the same as gi"en for the Sephiroth, as it is the only sphere that remains in both the Tree of ife and that of Death, connecting the two symbolic entities in the same manner that life and death, good and e"il, damnation and exaltation are inseperably connected. 2?. 5agiel is identified as the imbalanced Sephirah of Chokmah, and is translated as 9the $inderers9. The energies exuding from that sphere, and the power that its demons possess, bind the uni"erse and restrict creation from fulfilling its full potential, which often takes the form in human interaction as
self7delusion, confustion, consternation, and stagnation. 0eele!ebuth go"erns the Sphere of 5agiel. 2J. Thaumiel is identified as the imbalanced Sephirah of )ether, and is translated as, 9The Twins of 5od9. The powers of the Sphere and its demons create a distinct bipolarity between man and 5od, each the other8s enemy. Though this, the ower is cut off completely from the $igher, and the ight of 5od is shut out from the Darkness entirely. 0y some sources the ruler of Thaumiel, and therefore the $ead of the whole &d"erse Tree is moloch/ others gi"e that title to Satan.
