Twisted Treatises

This is based on...everything I've ever read about everything, be it truth or tale. I didn't come up with this myself. These titles exist, save True Marketer, which is my whole-cloth name for today's tyrants. Reading certain old books I figured were made-up I find later in life, prize-winning journalists writing about these sorts, maybe not under these names, but their DOINGS are the same. And in that my love for dystopian musings. True Marketer (esoteric)*autocrat who sells oppression to the proletarian through media manipulation and social experiments* Skip Tracer *one who can find, through tech or psychic ability, anyone on the planet* Shadow Adept (esoteric)*skilled in replacing unaware psyches with their own undetected* Think Tank *a group of elite minds who study the population and convene to brainstorm social experiments to aid the Marketers under the auspices of social and economic well-being* Truth is stranger than fiction. But when the two meet and somehow make fa

Take the 10 steps from Malkuth to Kether along the 22 paths of the tree, which are signified by the Hebrew alphabet and the trumps in the tarot. Knowing what both of those mean in their variety is laudable, but here in the West we must see the practical before we can be bothered to consider anything else. I've tried to do that with the Tree in these few paragraphs.  10 vortexes--22 paths--3 ethers, some say 4. Malkuth is the Kingdom. Yesod is the Foundation. Hob is the Splendor. Netzach is Victory. Taphreth is Beauty. Geburah is Severity. Chesed is Mercy. Binah is Understanding. Chokma is Wisdom. Kether is the Crown. The Hebrew words have a divine depth of meaning to them, and it is good to know. However, using the English meanings, a Western occultist can climb the Tree of Life with his pragmatism intact if he proceeds with the following in mind, and not the esoteric, grandiose mystical meanings so necessary to our occidental friends. From the Kingdom you cross into Foundation, wh

Felicitations. I greet you well. I trust the turkey has found its way into the sewer by now and everyone is strung out on beer and tryptophan, plus whatever surreptitious opiate they put in the meat during the holidays. For me, it was a day of Scorsese, and that's just fine.  This is going to be a little choppy, like mad seas. I have no subject but don't want the blog to stagnate. While grateful for every single reader I have, I also keep it to assuage my automaton of apathy. Years of that muck in my shadow. As I drift through it, this is one of my paddles. This is a sort of diary--I wouldn't sell it, but it aids me in organizing my thoughts into a linear pattern. Maybe gives them a sort of theme, which is great for the writer. And not bad for the person who may benefit from keeping all their thoughts in disciplined subject boxes. Grants one the ability to know their minds well enough to rebuke any egregious compulsions. That must be one reason journal keeping is so laudabl

"A person who wants to be an alchemist must have in himself the magnesia, which means the magnetic power to attract and coagulate invisible Astral elements." --Dr. Franz Hartmann, Paracelsus Here is how I access the inertia of the universe.  You don't have to be special or superhuman to access the magnesia, or essential prana, the etheric zing. You don't have to be rich or well-established in the status quo, or any of the bullshit the Socialite Occultists would have you believe; you could be homeless and do this, I did. It won't make money for you, or make people flock to you, but it will make you more energetic, kind, and thoughtful, and you may find it easier to hustle or work,  and that you get kick ass ideas you didn't get before. Those positive psychological triangles can take you anywhere you want to go with a little effort. This effort will bring you along the road to creating your own magic. The only special thing you need to be able to do is to shut a

Today's Relevant Correlates. Here we have what the planets and the stars are doing right now. I have not included every triune, square, conjunct, etc.--the idea is to keep it simple. I culled these from Astro-Seek as I did my own correlates almost a year ago. Astro-Seek makes it very easy and will supply you with all the correlates and explanations you could possibly want. The following hexagrams--our archetypal macrocosms--are based on the above symbols.  Neptune takes the place of Earth as Kingdom for our astral purposes. Neptune is a suitable dream pen for a variety of reasons, not the least of which are included in mythos. The trident is placed in the hexagon. Jupiter takes the top point and Pisces the low point, creating a line from Crown to Root. The top border triangles represent Libra and Virgo, Aries and Chiron border Pisces in the lower points--the health and healing of inspired dreams and the blessing and balance to work toward them. Direction: NW. The Sun in the hexagon

Hexagram As Explained Previously. A further explanation of last week's post. Can the Zodiac affect you? Good question. Most would argue that if such were true for one person, it must be true for everyone, and if that were the case this world would be a really bad place. Earth isn't, but people are, and they generally don't ask why they are as long as they collect their paychecks. It's perfectly fine to be a sonofabitching bastard as long as you pay your way. The abusive parent never asks himself why he beats the brakes off his child as long as he's footing all the bills. It still happens. And worse happens. Ask them why, "I dunno, I just get mad." Could it be etheric? I was a bit that way. Then I lost everything. I hit the bricks and with little else to do but study weird shit and get high, I looked into the full explanation of my Zodiac and found I was living exactly as it said I would, all down to the losing everything and homelessness, even though I'

It's fucking hard to perform a story. It'll make you hard, too. Reading the tale a few times to get the feel of the character. Deciding on suitable voices, and then speaking in them as if you've been speaking that way for your entire life. If the tale is first person (the "I"), it's not so bad. But when it's 3rd person you have to switch from one character to the next, and that can feel pretty strange.  In the first person, I lose myself playing the incel. I forget that I, Rob, would cringe not only from behaving like this character but also from anyone who did. It fucks with me that I understand these insipid people as well as I do. I wonder if the grizzled detective feels the same way. But it also rules. I enjoy getting into people's heads no matter who they are. This practice only helps every art form.  Performing in the third person cools me down inside. The Man Within gives me a baby hit because I'm doing something cool. Jumping from a human v

No self-help works without the seeker forcing himself to improve. The suggestions given by those who would paint themselves as sages, such as setting it into one's subconscious to wake refreshed and ready to perform only goes so far. Those tips help attitude, but when it comes to the physical aspect holding the seeker down, the tips don't help. Some cannot distill rage through willing a false happy. Shit hurts to much. Why have they nothing to say about the physical discomfort caused by strife? They seem to ignore that. It is swept under the rug like dust. The books say nothing about the spear that goes through some people's guts when they remember something they have to do. Not everyone is this way. Most people who benefit from a self-help book probably don't need a self-help book, they were fine to start with and only read to jump on the new age metaphysics bandwagon or to satisfy their fellow church parishoners. People who truly need self-help practices don't nee

"The most dangerous form of black magic is the scientific perversion of occult powers for the gratification of personal desire." --Manly P. Hall, The Secret Teachings Of All Ages I don't use the darkness anymore. I used to with concomitant results, but all manifestations backfired and scattered my psyche. The results I've gotten from using the lighter side are a much more practical thing, inner peace and the breaking of negative mental triangles. I keep threatening to write a book about this but the truth is, I hadn't organized an explanation until today, All-Satan's Day. Using the Pythagorean savvy that the Zodiac is a map of one's etheric make-up, I built a 4-Aspect ritual from scratch, like a chef who knows a thousand ingredients and a hundred recipes. The first aspect is based on the Star Saphire and uses the Zodiac, and is the only aspect I'm currently willing to share with others. Those who find themselves in a blind fuckaroo during planetary r
