>>Still don't know what to do after all this mediation and sigial making.
Work on more complex rituals. Once you have a hang on banishings, move up to evocations, invocations, preliminary pathworkings. Ultimately, the next big roadblock is learning to astrally project.
>>What else can I gain from reading his work ?
His stuff is very advanced, so it's good for insight into where you're ultimately headed. But, it is also highly idiosyncratic, so in and of itself it won't be very useful. It's basically up to how you want to allocate your time.
>>They have helped tremendously in my life,learnt a lot.
Cool, well I would recommend working ritual into a trip. People probably got the original concept for how to do magick from tripping, and the degree to which the concepts of 'head space' and 'sacred space' overlap is not at all coincidental.
>>I want to improve a lot of my personality
Well first you need to specify exactly how or what it is you want. Then you can design a practice to get there, step by step.
>> I hopefuly go to Peru in 6months to do ayahuasca
Why do you want to take it in Peru? Not trying to deflate your plan, but just, why do you think that will make it different/better?
>>)that will top it all
One is never 'done' working spiritually. It's a lifelong process, for sure. So, don't get too fixated on some big trip in the future. Life will still go on afterwards, and you'll still be on your journey.
>>to find a better way to make money
Cool, so the next step would be to design a pathway from the sigil creation to the actual putting of the dollar bills in your pocket. Just making the sigil and having that desire is only the first step.
>>start being more confident with approaching girls
Same thing, except you kind of need to work backwards. Instead of building forward like you would in using sigils to make money (i.e. I make a sigil for the basic intention...that gives me an idea for a plan, which I sigilize to crystalize my intent, etc...) but to go back to the origin of that blockage to undo it (i.e. first make a sigil to clear out the negative energy and state your intent to heal this, then use one to try to uncover the origin of that fear, then to undo it, then to consider what you think your most attractive points are, enhance those, etc. etc.) Having the desire is just the beginning, magick is the toolkit, but you still have to use it to build every stepping stone along the way (even if you didn't imagine there would have to be so many steps between points A & B.)
>>Because of this should I look more in hermetic stuff...
Kewl, Egyptian and Greek are of course the OG magick mythologies so you will definitely have the easiest time finding material with these selections. The Crowley stuff I already linked you is heavily leaning toward the Greco-Egyptian angle, although if you want to go down a more reconstructionist (i.e. 'authentic) or more post-modern angle is up to you. With that in mind, do you know of any particular gods or archetypes within those traditions that appeal to you? (picking a patron deity is important for some meditation practices, like bhakti yoga, but also focusing your intention at this early point might help make your path clearer in general.)
>> have just never knew where to start properly.
Honestly you might be better off starting with the very vanilla, non-occult themed astral projection stuff, because it's easy to misunderstand when occult authors talk about it through a lot of innuendo. Can you lucid dream? If so you're already mostly there, the next step is learning to get into that state without falling asleep. If not, first you will need to build up your energy body. Mostly that involves doing specific types of meditation that focus on circulating patterns of energy through your body until you feel like the whole thing is vibrating and floating and you begin to lose your sense of position in space. Once your astral body is developed enough to feel that, you'll be ready to practice for actual projection. Comment too long. Click here to view the full text. |
