That should get you started.

[In this book] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0230237622?pc_redir=1410495952&robot_redir=1) the phrase "sorcery without sorcerers" is coined.

This is the essence of Weberian disenchantment and in a comically paradoxical way, affirms the basis of Eros, sympathetic magic, law of attraction and what is called "dependant origination" in buddhism.

"Objective" science is a fundamentally alien and alienating ethos with a malignant telos as inherent mechanism built in. The paradox in other words, is that you have to believe in this Cartesian objectivity in order for it to work in your life the way it's designed to. Fundamental alienation is the heart of conspiracy theory- our modern day folklore, cosmology and mythical narrative.

According to Jungs appointed successor, Marie Louis Von Franz as well as mythologist rock star Joseph Campbell, myth is a tool that allows us individually and collectively to engage in a healthy way with the most fundamental and existential fears and anxiety causing experiences of life.

But Campbell also told us to "embody our myth", a stratum now fundamentally infected with the corporate and synthetic toxins of "autonomy and personal-responsibility" I.e. an anti-magic, "non-causal" (as opposed to acausal) field. Since most do not believe in the synchronous divine matrix, it is therefore impossible to "embody" a myth. Since we can lt embody the myths of Prometheus, Shiva etc we have instead projected our extreme alienation and disconnectedness onto the characters, groups, institutions and cosmogony of the "new myths" of our contemporary culture.

And who would want to embody the imaginal dimension collapsing, planet destroying, pedophilic, incestuous materialistic, sky net, earth rape, alien mythos? Perhaps there is a reason that this narrative structure emerged full grown from the side of Zacchariah Stichens head in the early 70s. Never have our myths been so fundamentally oppressive, clinical and ontologically foreign, than the mythic structures of today.

Engaging with them in any way, simply perpetuates a conduit of radical spiritual separation from the notions of divinity, self, society, the cosmos and Gaia herself. THIS is the fundamental Gnostic heresy.

It is not that Gnostic theodicy and Gnostic narrative (the universal thread of ALL modern conspiracy) is not useful. It can be liberating but only if coupled with its "hermetic" counterpart. Spiritual alchemical transmutation MUST be not only present but by far the primary concern of the overall ontological/onto-theological experience of the modern human.

The aliens are our spiritually disembodied or displaced souls while the alien theogenies represent their cumulative nature in institutions both corporate and statist.

The demons are the odd, deranged experience of fundamental human sympathetic frequencies called emotions.

The theodicy encapsulated in gnostic lore has been weaponized into epistemology. We are sucking our own shit.

For the vast majority, this "non-magical" design is experienced as paranoia in lieu of synchronous co-incidents.

My sudden turnabout from this sub, the internet and critical culture in General is paradoxically also grounded in the fundamental observation and in a sense, affirmation of the Cartesian telos.

In a cosmology of sorcery without sorcerers, the ego and Orphic/Christian soul being coupled with the aversion of hell or craving of heaven, are the fundamental transformer that steps down the Cartesian sympathetic resonance cancellation signal as well as the machine that keeps the individual surrounded and distorted in a field of noise to prevent a meaningful connection with suntyata, Kenosis, the Tao, Renaissance Eros, logos, Gaia or whatever you want to call it. All these being fundamentally pantheistic conceptualizations.

So why does this paradigm affirm the existence of magic? In a sense it does not unless you have the fortitude and willpower to develop and sustain a meditative and "magical" practice of some sort. If you do, you will begin to amplify synchronous events, largely through fundamental magical developmental techniques such as mindfulness or the mirror exercise in Bardons IIH.

So one cannot affirm either until both have been experienced in contrast to one another.

The scientific "non-magical" paradigm is in fact the malignant sorcery paradigm par excellence. Why?
Because sorcerys sociological/anthropological or "mundane" definition is historically largely experience as malignant or agency robbing. It is not so much "causal" as it is preventative. It is the convincing of individuals, groups and the mass mind that they have no fundamental acausal or synchronous connections with moments, themselves, others, society, nature or the cosmos.

Magic is the technology of closing this gap and deliberately making or strengthening these connections.

In the sorcerous paradigm, the unenlightened masses do all the work including perpetuating the agency robbing mythos itself.

This works because each individual is an amulet, fractal or microcosmic reflection that perpetuates fundamental guiding ethos of the whole. Holism. I've said before that the fundamental ontos of human experience is belief, in other words, we make meaning. Astrology is as fundamental as one can get to "degree zero" of that which beget the mythic (and scientific-astronomy) impulse itself.

If our number one ontological mechanism is belief then we will perpetuate what we are repetitively fed. Now we are close to the core primordial principle of dogma. Dogma is what we do with the knowledge of the remainder. We are here but know not where we go or we came. This is what sets in motion myth and what underscores our capacity to believe as a fundamentally human birthright. But it also creates the urgency so to speak, which then informs our synchronous or non-synchronous episteme which then seeks to concretize, sublimate or seperate the natural, social and psychic entelechies that either seek to corroborate or block acausality.

This of course is only ever correlative. The same goes for fundamental premises of conspiracy. This is the dogma that informs our worldview. World views are ultimately based in the irrational. For buddhism and older shamanic tribal groups it was reincarnation which was implied by circular time this was what was combatted/perverted by first orphism then xianity and became linear time, telos heaven and hell. We reduced the individuals temporal-experiential space from "3d" to 2d.

NONE of either the shamanic/circular nor the cult of the dying god/linear time can be proven definitively. This is why belief is THE MOST IMPORTANT TOOL humans have and it has been exploited and weaponized since it's discovery by a priest class. Human belief is the tool and locomotive power of history, Hegelian or otherwise.

Ultimately it comes down to the two primal emotions, love and fear. Both are necessary but ultimately you can only place one as the fundament of experience, time and creation.

Fear is chaos and chaos cannot sustain laws- harmony.

There is nothing ultimately to fear. This is the juicy element of the game we have chosen to play. Without it, human existence would be bland. But we must choose one reason why we are here, to do or to be. This was the great Greek arche. you must decide essentially if you are here to have fun or not. If you are born as the Dalai Lama has said, to enjoy life, then all waking moments should point towards this goal if not serve it. But the decision must be made to be happy, the decide that you can believe that life is for living.

Our western psyche and it's innumerable sicknesses are testament to the Jungian collective unconscious. Whatever enough of us feed into the material world will eventually create a trace and a perpetual reference. This is the curse of Malkuth. We DO get what as ask for.

So why ask for temporo-pedophilic, alien hybrid cyborg anthropology AI singularity soul crushing mind rape? I doubt we will ever get it collectively but we can have it individually if we wish.


This refusal to affirm to necessity of the collective as core to the strength of an individuals "mAgic" is again an irony and paradox. It is the autonomy of rampant scientism that tricks us into thinking only "MY" magic is necessAry, who cares what the culture believes, I BELIEVE in magic, this is enough.

And this is why workaday "magic" paradigms are total fucking shit because even the hierarchical model of these organizations themselves function as nothing more than a double blind chaos begetting torus of pitch perfect politics in the archetypal sense. A grasping at secrets which endow "power" that creates a furious and insidiously crafty toing and froing of psychopathic social maneuvering, this orgy of embarrassing modern behavior being immortalized in such works as Pynchons Gravitys Rainbow and any biography of Crowley or the Golden Dawn freak show. This is touched upon in Culianis "magic and Eros in the renaissance".

Marxs concept of commodity fetishism could in a sense be read as a fundamentally self-perpetuating system of magically charging commodities as "idols" with "anti-magic" essence through the very process and experience of alienated labor by the every single employee/line workers emotionally degraded state of slave wage driven ennui as the process which charges the amulet or product they are mindlessly building in return for the right of subsistence.

Perhaps because of this, early hipster culture/thrift store culture was in a way a unknowingly sympathetic mass response to the pain and suffering that each shiny gadget and trinket is charged with. AND DONT YOU DARE TOUCH MINE!!!

This unbeknowningly perpetuated self-enslavement includes -and perhaps most importantly- critical discourse itself. This was the fundamental impetus underlying much of Foucault and the load-structuralists work.

Unwittingly cranking out all star game winning play books for the psychopathic opposition I call "dark-Marxism". This place is for the most part an Olympic "dark-Marxist" training facility.

Critical deconstruction and agency robbing mythos -be it politcal, philosophical or "para-political"/conspiratorial- make "good people bad" in two ways.

I. These agency robbing narratives slander people whose true motives lay nowhere near their accusers missives

2. These narratives centering around assymetries of power, scarcity, encourage unsoiled souls to engage in dark pursuits convince the only option is "can't beat em join em".

This is the basis of accelerationism.

The agency robbing mythos last and most devastating effect is that it literally conjures up the sorcerous field around the "illuminati" which in reality is nothing more than a bunch of old, fat, bald, small dicked, liver spotted rich white guys frantically trying to stay atop of an ever growing tidal wave of short sided greed and assymetry amplification. Demonic deification of societies fundamentally most dubious and imbalanced/imbalancing impulse.

The solution is to turn away from critical discourse of all kinds and work to stop first the oscillation in your mind allthewhile seeking and building a community of purposeful and near-singular intention whose main focus is to amplify the synchronous.

The fundamental energy and impetus isn't "Thelema" or magical willpower, it is a community activated by such fundamental belief working together as amulets amplifying this sympathetic resonance and belief in love and shunning fear with the deft skill embodied in bodhisattvas and the abhidhamma style incursions into epistemology and ontology. The systematic rarification of an individual's use and meaning of words used sifting for and neutralizing negative charge.

Western magic is a fucking joke. It is the inverse of what most people think it is and is fundamentally rooted in a self-perpetuating technology of mythos and vulgar materialism. The best part of western magic is the "fundamental" skills they teach in beginners books which can be found in more potent and coherent form in any Buddhist or yoga text.

I am working on an idea which will be centered around a sub that will be devoted to in a sense "group prayer", jubilee and single focused intention in an attempt to amplify synchronicity -the sole purpose of "magic"- for the community members.

It is my opinion that the most important thing you can do to combat this nightmare we all see more fully than others is to STOP mental oscillation- is this a good idea, should I have done that etc- and seek others who do the same. This is rooted in love, empathy and the wholly/holy UNCRITICAL experience of human life. You cannot participate in this type (SotS) of philosophical logistics without strengthening the thing you hate. It is the paradox of power.
