Politics and Demonology
Dabbling for more than a decade in the occult, even exploring the esoteric shadow lands of dark magick merely to understand what it really is, and why those in politics and high positions of power are so often attributed or connected to it.
Here is my imagination mixed with a bit of reality. I have drawn the conclusion that many of the ancient demons of old are not actually disembodied beings that these men and people in power connect to, but that these very people are actually the embodiment and living incarnation of these very forces.
These are the ancient demons that King Solomon had bound and brought into his obedience to build his sacred temple. Someone released them and nobody seeks to bind them, because that is all it takes.
It is interesting how all of the Demons of Ancient Grimoires are often carrying the titles of Prince, Duke, Baron, Marquis, Count, Earl, President. I believe that these books of demonology were attempts of binding political and nobility by using magick and hiding the identities of those people in code, those ancient grimoires were spells of warfare against the nobility of their time, who had become authoritative, perverted and distorted like living Demons.
Maybe they were nothing more than anarchy pamphlets satirical depiction of Medieval versions of todays Rothshilds, Rockefellers and Co.
But more importantly how does one deal with a Demon?
The Inner Grimoire - An Open Secret
What we need is a way of finally being able to recognise these demons that we have hailed amidst our midst to the ranks of high men who are steering humanity itself. The reason we have not been able to see through them, is because we are unwilling to recognise that the essence of these same demons lives in each of us. And that frightens us, but we need to accept this fact and face them, only then are we no longer blind to them , and begin to be able to slowly withdraw our power from them both internally and externally.
There is nothing surprising in that, for the Adversary himself masquerades as an angel of light : 2 Corinthians 11:14
Our website having an esoteric flair has often gotten me blindly judged as being some sort of satanist or devil-worshipper with so much hate projected towards me, I am not fascinated by any demons and devils, but strongly aware that the darkness that lies within us, needs to be recognised or else it will haunt is in the shape of demons until we become a devil ourselves. And so the darkness that I represent in our website is not to get you into esoteric mumbo-jumbo but to serve as a portal in which you can safely explore the darkness but guided by the light.
What do I mean by this?
Exploring myself and my flaws, I am able to finally lose the naiveté of seeing the world through the lens of absolutes, ie good people vs bad people, but rather I will remain aware of the fact that there is the potential for a devilish and godly nature in each of us, and no matter how godly we think we are, most of us have a big load of unconscious inner demons controlling much of our lives.
Why? because we choose to ignore them,
Why? because it feels uncomfortable to admit they exist and then to face them and look at them for what they are & what they might become the longer we continue to give them sustenance, energy and life.
Reading into Black Magic I quickly saw these Demons who people think outside of them, are in some shape just potentials within me, distorted, perverted versions of excess and extreme in a certain egoistic direction. So to me that was a great Gift I was no longer afraid of the Demons outside, they were but the result of what happens and manifests when we forget to keep our own inner Demons in check. I began to understand these were metaphors describing my own inner universe.
Again I bring up my website, because I guess not only the obscure nature, but also our symbology triggers some people into OMFG ILLUMINATI, DEVIL-WORSHIPPER, reactions . And for them everything esoteric or to do with alchemy is thrown into one basket. Namely "Satanic, Baby-Eating, Devil-Worshipper" Which I wish to clear up is not my understanding and my use of these symbols at all.
I wish to start with one specific concept that gets thrown around without being understood, often the concept of hermaphrodism in alchemy is translated as meaning that ancients alchemists were conspiring to invert the sexes and make men into women and women into men and this is why the elite uses the same symbolism and promotes the transgender agenda as the peak coming to fruition of their great plan since antiquity.
This is BS.
The Truth and Its Inversion
Yes the Elite use the same symbology as in alchemy and ancient esoteric texts of magick; but what people don't get they invert their true meaning to suit their own agenda and purpose, and they thereby pervert and try to destroy the original symbol and its true meaning.
In alchemy this state of Hermaphrodism was an internal process, it had nothing to do with your sexual preference or gender. But merely that in a man there are also the qualities of a woman and that in a woman there are also the inherent qualities of a man. You could say the biological male has a certain dominance towards his logical faculties while the woman a certain dominance towards her intuitive faculties, and the point was merely to acknowledge these different inner aspects and to bring them in a state of cooperative symbiotic harmony, so that mental emotional faculties are in balance and cooperating with each other, instead of in dissonance and conflict due to ignoring or not properly handling the different signals.
The elite and the Media have taken these same analogies/metaphors/symbols and have inverted and perverted them into false teachings. Distorting these symbols into an agenda in which they are not trying to teach anybody how to to get into greater inner alignment with themselves and so too the world, but to confuse the heck out of everyone such that nothing makes sense anymore, and in that confusion they will rule us with the most efficiency possible and the greatest ease in keeping us divided.
I believe in One Divine Essence from which all is created, and I believe that each of us is embedded within it, as an inherent part of it and containing the entirety of it within ourselves like a fractal.
The scariest devil I have ever seen was within myself, which has helped make the wool drop from my eyes and see the demons that were masquerading as angels of light amongst us and in my own daily life.
I despise the state of the world we are in, but it is because we have only ever faced the demonic and that which is evil by attacking it outside of ourselves, but we have failed collectively to take a deep look inside of our own selves and to shine a light on our own demons of sloth, laziness, ignorance, and all others born out of our own cheap excuses and avoidance of admitting them.
The Essence of Real Magick and Alchemy.
A true magician is not drawing circles and casting spells, and communing with angels and demons, a true magician realises that his soul is the circle, his mental formulations his spell, and his body the pentagram, and that the angels and demons are all the seeds and voices of potential that lie within him which are constantly influencing him on a day to day basis whether conscious of it or not.
The Ritual Objects are not physical objects you need to acquire to make a ritual. A dagger is your mind, the sword with which you can cut, but also be cut. A chalice, which is your intuition and emotions, this can be a bubbling spring of life ie the holy grail or it can be a stagnant pool of despair and bad judgment. A Wand, Which is your creative fire, the element of your soul, inspiration and action, the first cause, the spark, the wand of manifestation. And finally the pentagram, which is nothing other than your physical body, which you always have with you as well, which contains all elements united into one and manifested as an inherent interoperating unity ie your entire being.
To those who read about esoteric knowledge without understanding that everything is an internal analogy to the structure of the human soul/spirit/body, and not meant as reference or instruction to any sort of superficialities of our day to day existence, they see a complicated book with highly complex rituals that need all sorts of tools and gadgets to invoke some abstract entity or perform strange spells, when in fact, one with true understanding will realise that these complex rituals are actually not rituals performed physically but they were merely highly complex metaphysical maps of the human beings inner constitution.
They are meant to be maps translating complex dynamic forces which actually constitute the very essence of our being, in the hopes of helping the individual rise out of the mirages and illusions with which we lose our alignment with that which is Truth and Love.
Philosophy does not mean the Love of Wisdom, but it means the Wisdom of Love. And the True Schools of Esoteric Knowledge have ever been the schools that taught the Wisdom of Love. instead of the Love of Wisdom.
The Love of Money tends to pervert our dealing with Money.
The Love of Wisdom tends to pervert our dealing with Wisdom.
But the Wisdom of Love will teach us how to love all things in a sense equally but also appropriately to its unique disposition in relation to ourselves.
And so in a world of division and clear cut definitions which only produce more division perhaps we should learn to see that every symbol carries within itself a meaning which is the truth of its essence ; and likewise it carries within itself the potential to be distorted into all sorts of perversions of itself. There is a Ying and Yang to everything.
Look where you are afraid to look
People prefer a reality in which they put the blame of those in positions of power on evil entities from another dimension or plane of existence, or due to them not being human. Because those possibilities feel more comfortable than accepting that the evil in those people is actually coming from a human and is the result of an actual human having become "like" a demon due to no influence other than it having been a natural possibility, due to having been a voluntary choice on some part of the individual in consciously or unconsciously having nurtured his tiny demons until they became one big real demon with a lot of power and influence over the events in the world.
What scares us, is that this is what might become of you and me too, certainly so if we choose to believe that we are somehow different or do not contain these same possibilities within us. We are scared because it makes us feel afraid about the amount of responsibility we actually might hold and being asked to wield by Life. And it demands that we each look into ourselves there where we fear the most to look, because unless we shine light on our own inner demons it will be hard to tell where we are giving those same demons that live in other people the ability to continue keeping us under their spell equally externally.
Daily Life and the most banal of occurrences are for me magic itself. I do not do rituals , I commune with the plants in my garden, I care for my dog, I nurture my relationship to my love, I create perfumes, I write, I enjoy music, I appreciate the challenges put in front of me, that is what magic is all about, that is what all the true occult teachings are about. Every breath is a part of the great Ritual that is Life and our Interaction with it.
The Day-to-Day is in all its banality supernatural. Magic is the essence of our Being. God is One.
Codes of Metaphor
Esoteric Texts are meant to be obscure, so that those so focused on attaining a selfish goal, would see them as actual guidelines to performing spells to accomplish their wishes. Driving themselves mad gathering strange ingredients and impossible materials. Deluding themselves into fantasies of grandeur because of their grand feats of mental gymnastics and ritual theatrics, never realising that they had completely missed the point and went the opposite direction entirely into a place of madness where the point of the true meaning of these texts slips ever further away from their grasp as they venture into self-destruction.
But to the one who reads through all these texts with the understanding that perhaps all that is written is merely a metaphor, such a one quickly begins to see that what seemed so complex was actually rather simple. But the reason it appeared so complex was because the missing Key was realising that the context of the Text was a metaphoric description of our metaphysical inner structure and not a book of literal instructions.
These were books describing the Inner universe, written by scientists that took the telescopes of wisdom to look far into the depths of their inner being, and withheld an infinity of worlds interacting with each other forming the vast mythological world of archetypes that constitute the substance of our Soul and Spirit and its relationship to Matter.
As Within, so Without.
What I see Outside, Exists also Inside. What I see Inside, also exists Outside.
As Above, So Below.
Outer Space is Constructed as Inner Space. Inner Space is Constructed as Outer Space.
These are things to contemplate.
Final Words
So please do not throw the baby out with the bathwater, ancient esoteric symbology has nothing to do with the depictions of superficial brainwashing by the mainstream multimedia entertainment industry nor the sick perversions of elite fraternities or secret societies. These people have stolen symbols from powerful meaningful teachings that are our birthright and perverted them and subverted them for their own use, since they lack the creativity to create anything original, but are only capable of inverting what is truth.
Launching the Site I was confronted with this whole thematic, since a few people on some platforms really left some aggressive hostile remarks due to their interpretation of what they thought it must represent. And it made me want to dive into the whole topic and actually give my own interpretation and understanding of the subject.
