Magic in our world is regarded with a bit of suspicion or surprise even if we say out loud ‘How magical!’ This statement implies something else, even though we want to see life as a Cinderella story where we can be enchanted into something we may not be. Or can we? Both yes and no lie depending on how we formulate for ourselves. We are constantly exposed to adverts and exhortations that if we use that particular product or title and formation, we will automatically change the conditions for others and our lives ourselves. But at the same time, magic is clearly happening all the time without our knowledge. The word that Carl- Gustav Jung coined ‘Synchronicity is the way in which coincidences and parallel events in some marvellous way want to intertwine and meet that just extra ordinary things that happen and how we live suddenly from a different level of ourselves than the SK everyday mood how existence and our encounters become electrified and have a totally different charge than the moment before or the opposite that existence slams an impenetrable glass wall against us and the outside world or feel that we are exposed by the world's curse that makes us believe that evil forces want to harm u
There are many examples but one thing is certain: many words can be traced that testify to how people throughout the ages regarded the world as very magical. The English word Charmig is just such a word that means the spell to bewitch someone with its presence. Also the word spell. Which literally means Spell as in writing down a spell or doing something for or against someone. I myself see common phenomena such as a dinner or coffee, or something I do as where there is another value than just a simple purpose just a more elaborate phenomenon to bind a higher feeling to the coffee itself for example as a ritual where the very ingredients around the whole thing connect the higher purpose of the whole or just the unspoken like how to charm someone with a dinner for example so the whole thing becomes a ritual to bind it around the experience around the event. The whole thing becomes more of a spiritual manifestation if you invite spirits and divine beings to help with the process of getting what you so desire, which can be a little dubious. But manifesting one's intention has always been a human drive whether it has been in most cases to attract and ensure a good harvest to receive the blessings of the gods and the power to create the conditions to achieve to keep life and courage up to ensure life.
Does real magic exist? Yes, it exists and it is alive, even if the idea of it is both distorted, falsified, ridiculed and delusional. What does the mature magic include Secret societies that practice their form of magic Religious forms of magic but these are magical in essence even if, for example, the church denies that they are called magic, it is magic in reality .
Magic as it has developed was a way of seeing the world as magical and on a divine level for those who could interpret that happening and had the knowledge to look at and interpret what is happening through the inner vision. What we see today that we consider scientifically correct connections, without forces that had different impact and Divine presence from the alchemy Or the prevailing religious attitude. the ultimate task of magic is to strengthen the power of the operations of magic to convey the divine strength to what intends to energise. Just like today where some people take different drugs or energy drinks to perform and build bigger or leaner bodies. If we want to perform on our training activities at the gym type example, we then went to the shaman, magician or witch to get something that made us gain greater strength.
Cornelius of Agrippa born 1486 in Cologne he was a natural philosopher magician and physician. he summarised various occult elements with the star world which was considered at the time that the macrocosm and microcosm were one and the same elements but on different planes everything lived in symbiosis with each other and that they as we Astrologers point out that the planetary energies are represented so in all living things and are as totality in the universe the 7 divine rays which are represented in the 7 most important planets which in turn the forces are represented in all living things and in the mineral world here on Earth. So everything is created with a divine intention. that he expressed his view of the natural world as a reflection in a neoplatonic interpretation of the and magic originated from god originally. in this 9 h long film you can go through large parts of his writings on magic how astrology is related to our existence. he is one of the medieval magicians along with Para Celsius who
The Rosicrucians were an expression of the papal inquisition against what they considered dangerous to people so this society was created as an invisible society that in their manifesto that one could not seek this on a natural level but had to search from his soul to find this mystery to brotherhood. In these societies and among the Freemasons, secret codes, teachings and symbols flourished, as even the churches have some of these symbols. In these societies, hermetic wisdom was taught, where the arch-god Trismagistus and the emarald tablets were the very core of the secrets from the Egyptians and the occult world. They were founded in what is said to be the middle ground between the known Western mystery culture and civilisations such as Atlantis and Lemuria, which today are considered pure myth and fantasy..
Freemasonry has many aspects that are both fascinating and mysterious, although today many have taken on this Christian occult society to get to grips with the secrets and complex history that is both alluring and shrouded in some smog-like darkness. That things suddenly reveal themselves bit by bit as given is a bit of charm. Because when I saw The Magic Flute by Mozart on TV for the first time who would have thought that the plot of this marvellous production was about an initiation ceremony within the Freemasons, a drama that takes place on two different levels where the more earthbound couple and the more spiritual level that is like an allergy how we go through our trials in life but in a mystery drama. The Freemasons are known for being the ones who kept the secrets of the art of building, how they managed to build the cathedrals around Europe in the Middle Ages. But they didn't just build entire cities in a hidden pattern like Washington DC where the streetscape itself rests of geomantria and focal points even as the constructed obelisk outside the White House is one and the whole room straight in the opposite direction The oval room. Well in the Egyptian view of obelisks which is a common SK decorative feature, they are called Jed pillars they are to generate power as batteries and in this case they are like phallus symbols marked out to be energy pillars. In this strange society that has both an emphasis on Kabbalah and funeral rites to progress you must ritually die to be ascended to a new degree and through handshakes and rings and other symbols you pledge your allegiance and
Elipsa Levi was the person who was to have a far greater impact on the mystics of the next generation than he could ever have imagined. A crucial influence on the modern tarot deck developed by *Arthur Whaite and Pamala Colman Smith, as well as a whole range of Golden Dawn magical structures, rests on his inspiration from the Egyptian heritage of pagan Judeo-Christian mysticism, which he moulded into a new concept outside the supervision of the Grand Lodges. A socialist freethinker and bohemian, Levi lived a relatively modest life, dedicating his entire life to the service of magic and mysticism. Something that also influenced Blawatsky and later Alester Crowly and Gerald Gardner. Romanticism in Europe was in full swing, with new discoveries of Egypt and Herculaneum and Pompeii, where new ideals and currents were seeking answers in the darkness of the past. It was also the dawn of nation states in Italy and Germany, and where fairy tales and myths flourished, a time of idealism and hopes for a new world began. So with that material of various esoteric currents that would get a kickstart of inspiration from him.
One of the cornerstones of modern spiritual development, which she laid the foundation for, above all, linking a more multifaceted spiritual thinking to link East and West together and a cosmology that sheds light on the history of human development in purely spiritual terms according to theosophy, which will have a black impact in the New Age 100 years later and with Rudolf Steiner create Anthroposophy, which is a rather unusual form of various spiritual influences in relation to the more purely mystery schools presented here. Theosophy, which may not find a home in the established magical world of sorcerers, but has more of an intellectual starting point for building individual and group development together with ancient cultures and ways of thinking, and against this create a spiritual awakening. But not nece.
The Golden Dawn and the people who represented the order and its magical work that came to influence and make a massive impression on virtually all orders and societies including Wicca. How also the Golden Dawn draws its material from apart of all that has existed and important personalities and sources that create an unimaginable dynamic of those who will represent the movement. The movement is based much or almost all on a Kabbalistic thinking and aesthetics that is perhaps a bit special. But it does impress upon those who intend to join the Order that it is a matter of personality development. A relatively new paradigm in occult circles that spirituality is a matter not only of the soul and spirit but equally of becoming a better person in this world through the insights that come to her through magical work. There are very colourful personalities entering the doors of the order who will in turn give an outside expression and contribute different things in the development of different phenomena. Not good Alester Crowly who will have a great influence on people and help create the pop culture that we know in different fields of music art, lifestyle etc. Arthur Waite together with Pamela Colman Smith will not only create the Rider Waite Tarot deck but that from playing cards the use of Tarot cards will fundamentally change to fortune telling and reading and that from this a whole raft of different interpretations of the cards' images will characterise the market.
The modern era's liberation and reconnection to spiritual cultures of origin in practice and thesis has been a process especially in post-war Europe where we have remodelled our view of how we can reconnect and also come to terms with the white man's condemnations of what the culture has looked down upon as primitive vulgar and ugly. To allow what the church has condemned and we in turn have abused and ridiculed spiritually and spiritual cultures' ways of practising spirituality and their people's thoughts and feelings about their origins. What we see as primitive is how we express our communion with the invisible world. In movements among witches and shamans where the connection to nature, where sexuality is seen as a divine element where we in harmony create a free expression without condemning feelings or oppressing others but living out loving impulses on equal terms... Where we do not see that we are above other individuals but we live in harmony and harmony with each other without making us bullies or creating my
Wicca is a movement and initiatory branch and own path which one wishes to follow in order to live through nature and the changing seasons the stars of the cosmos the sun and the moon and the body's idiom in harmony with the spirit which one is free to develop the extra-sensory powers and communication with the divine world and elements arias as devas and natural beings live in harmony with each other. Through rites and spiritual community pay attention to all these aspects to live as authentic life and follow the rhythm of life to be creative and in harmony create this in the most natural way possible to be able to achieve this to live so magically together with man and woman as equals in a spiritual community that is Wicca for me. Gerald Gardner, of course, had other ideas about what it meant to him. But he was not dogmatic, but he thought that each individual should be free to his opinion, just as each coven has its way of realising the intention of the community within the circle.
