<v Speaker 6>Thanks Nick, oh, thank you, Thank you Ron.

75
00:04:09.479 --> 00:04:12.719
<v Speaker 1>And finally we got a guesst himself. We have Jamie

76
00:04:12.919 --> 00:04:15.879
<v Speaker 1>Paul Land and he does have a book that is

77
00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:18.519
<v Speaker 1>going to be coming out, the astrological Gaisha the seventy

78
00:04:18.560 --> 00:04:23.920
<v Speaker 1>two Keys to Angelic and Demonic Astrology. Ooh, so very

79
00:04:23.920 --> 00:04:26.399
<v Speaker 1>excited to have him here and to talk about that.

80
00:04:26.560 --> 00:04:29.360
<v Speaker 1>I have, you know, touched on the Goaishia numerous times

81
00:04:29.360 --> 00:04:31.160
<v Speaker 1>on the show, but never like really went into it.

82
00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:34.399
<v Speaker 1>And we're not really consider myself someone to talk on

83
00:04:34.439 --> 00:04:36.360
<v Speaker 1>it for a whole episode. I just you know, I

84
00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:38.920
<v Speaker 1>don't think I have those credentials. So we have somebody

85
00:04:38.920 --> 00:04:42.560
<v Speaker 1>here who can. So I'm very excited about that. Jamie.

86
00:04:42.600 --> 00:04:45.040
<v Speaker 1>Please let everybody know. I guess you know what other

87
00:04:45.160 --> 00:04:46.920
<v Speaker 1>stuff you have that you might want to promote, whether

88
00:04:46.959 --> 00:04:49.079
<v Speaker 1>they can find anything. Let everybody know where they can

89
00:04:49.079 --> 00:04:49.399
<v Speaker 1>find you.

90
00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:54.279
<v Speaker 4>Well, I've got my website which is Jamie Paul lamb

91
00:04:54.319 --> 00:05:01.639
<v Speaker 4>dot com, and on there I offer services like astrological

92
00:05:01.680 --> 00:05:07.600
<v Speaker 4>consultation and taro and things. But there's also you know,

93
00:05:07.800 --> 00:05:16.199
<v Speaker 4>like I do courses in traditional astrology. And other than that,

94
00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:22.279
<v Speaker 4>I've got three other books out before Astrological Goishia, which

95
00:05:22.319 --> 00:05:27.800
<v Speaker 4>are primarily Masonic focused, so they were done on smaller

96
00:05:27.879 --> 00:05:33.879
<v Speaker 4>Masonic imprints, but they're available on Amazon. If you just

97
00:05:33.920 --> 00:05:37.959
<v Speaker 4>look up my name, you could see, you know, those

98
00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:42.279
<v Speaker 4>books on Amazon. This, in fact, the Astrological go Aisha

99
00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:47.000
<v Speaker 4>is actually my first non Masonic book, and it's just

100
00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:50.759
<v Speaker 4>based on a lot of studies and things into the

101
00:05:50.800 --> 00:05:58.160
<v Speaker 4>Grimwire tradition and particularly Greco Egyptian magic like that you'd

102
00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:01.560
<v Speaker 4>find in like the PGM, but all the way through

103
00:06:01.560 --> 00:06:04.959
<v Speaker 4>the pick A Trix and that's those sort of Perso

104
00:06:05.040 --> 00:06:10.839
<v Speaker 4>Arabic medieval grimoires, and yeah, that's basically my zone in

105
00:06:10.839 --> 00:06:14.120
<v Speaker 4>the last couple of years, like maybe five years or so.

106
00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:20.480
<v Speaker 4>And yeah, all my work that I do on my

107
00:06:20.600 --> 00:06:26.839
<v Speaker 4>website is kind of centered around that particular perspective. But yeah,

108
00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:30.439
<v Speaker 4>this is my first book that's not Masonic. Like I said,

109
00:06:30.639 --> 00:06:33.639
<v Speaker 4>the word Freemasonry is not even in this book anywhere,

110
00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:39.920
<v Speaker 4>and I'm thinking that, you know, it's a much wider demographic,

111
00:06:40.319 --> 00:06:42.839
<v Speaker 4>So I just wonder how this is going to play out.

112
00:06:43.560 --> 00:06:46.560
<v Speaker 4>But I'm very excited about this book, and it's a

113
00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:50.319
<v Speaker 4>pleasure to be on occult rejects. I appreciate it.

114
00:06:51.560 --> 00:06:54.439
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, thank you please as soon as you know,

115
00:06:54.519 --> 00:06:56.319
<v Speaker 1>like I said, as soon as I got the email,

116
00:06:56.360 --> 00:06:59.000
<v Speaker 1>as you know, let me know about you. I looked

117
00:06:59.040 --> 00:07:00.480
<v Speaker 1>at you stuff. I was like, oh, oh, I got

118
00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:02.639
<v Speaker 1>to get this guy on. I was truly excited to

119
00:07:02.959 --> 00:07:03.600
<v Speaker 1>cover this time.

120
00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:03.879
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

121
00:07:04.759 --> 00:07:09.040
<v Speaker 1>So I guess real quick. Oh, you know, you had

122
00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:13.439
<v Speaker 1>mentioned like the Freemason Freemason books I know on your site.

123
00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:15.040
<v Speaker 1>I think, if you don't mind, maybe I know like you.

124
00:07:15.120 --> 00:07:17.360
<v Speaker 1>I think you've had experience as being a Freemason member,

125
00:07:17.360 --> 00:07:19.560
<v Speaker 1>and you are also associated with like Mark Stavish and

126
00:07:19.839 --> 00:07:21.160
<v Speaker 1>stuff like that. I don't know if you wanted to

127
00:07:21.160 --> 00:07:23.120
<v Speaker 1>promote that or just go over that real quick too.

128
00:07:23.639 --> 00:07:28.399
<v Speaker 4>Sure. Yeah, I'm the instructor of astrology at Mark Estavish's

129
00:07:29.839 --> 00:07:33.600
<v Speaker 4>Institute for Hermetic Studies, and he and I are very

130
00:07:33.600 --> 00:07:36.920
<v Speaker 4>close and I've known him a number of years. And

131
00:07:37.439 --> 00:07:42.160
<v Speaker 4>uh yeah, I pretty much I've done a lot of

132
00:07:42.199 --> 00:07:45.600
<v Speaker 4>speaking just all over the US on the Masonic circuit.

133
00:07:46.279 --> 00:07:50.199
<v Speaker 4>But like I said that, I'm sort of segueing into

134
00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:56.920
<v Speaker 4>the broader astrological sort of millieu. Right and next, In fact,

135
00:07:56.959 --> 00:08:01.240
<v Speaker 4>I got a really good opportunity in twenty twenty I've

136
00:08:01.279 --> 00:08:04.879
<v Speaker 4>been I applied to speak at YUAC, which is the

137
00:08:05.399 --> 00:08:10.040
<v Speaker 4>super Bowl of astrology conferences, and it's in Chicago. It's

138
00:08:10.079 --> 00:08:14.800
<v Speaker 4>the big astro conference. So I'm speaking there in twenty

139
00:08:14.839 --> 00:08:18.560
<v Speaker 4>twenty six. So I'm very excited about that, you know,

140
00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:21.959
<v Speaker 4>and they in fact put me on a good slot too,

141
00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:26.920
<v Speaker 4>I think on Saturday at like four thirty, right, Yeah,

142
00:08:27.600 --> 00:08:30.600
<v Speaker 4>so you really looking forward to that. I think that's

143
00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:33.639
<v Speaker 4>going to bring a lot of visibility to my work,

144
00:08:34.039 --> 00:08:35.720
<v Speaker 4>you know, which is always nice.

145
00:08:36.720 --> 00:08:39.960
<v Speaker 1>I definitely think that will help for sure. Congratulations, Yeah,

146
00:08:40.000 --> 00:08:43.200
<v Speaker 1>thank you. What brought you to I guess what was

147
00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:45.559
<v Speaker 1>the reason for you writing this book? Like, what was

148
00:08:45.600 --> 00:08:47.320
<v Speaker 1>going to be different about this book than all the

149
00:08:47.320 --> 00:08:48.879
<v Speaker 1>other go Gaatia books out there?

150
00:08:50.559 --> 00:08:55.080
<v Speaker 4>Well, because I've been focusing on that the last few years,

151
00:08:55.600 --> 00:08:59.320
<v Speaker 4>I've I in fact found a little chestnut that nobody

152
00:08:59.360 --> 00:09:02.480
<v Speaker 4>has read and about before. So that's what, you know,

153
00:09:02.840 --> 00:09:05.360
<v Speaker 4>that's kind of the aim. I think when you're writing

154
00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:08.799
<v Speaker 4>a book, you want to have a novel thesis, something

155
00:09:08.840 --> 00:09:11.960
<v Speaker 4>that hasn't been trampled all over for hundreds of years.

156
00:09:12.559 --> 00:09:16.960
<v Speaker 4>And I found something that has never been worked up

157
00:09:17.000 --> 00:09:20.600
<v Speaker 4>in the literature, and I've never heard anybody talk about it.

158
00:09:20.759 --> 00:09:26.679
<v Speaker 4>So it's basically using the quineries, so the angelic and

159
00:09:26.720 --> 00:09:32.000
<v Speaker 4>demonic five degree arc segments of the ecliptic and using

160
00:09:32.039 --> 00:09:39.519
<v Speaker 4>those in astrological delineation. So if that sounds too specialized,

161
00:09:39.799 --> 00:09:46.000
<v Speaker 4>I could say it another way. It's something that you

162
00:09:46.039 --> 00:09:50.879
<v Speaker 4>can use to delineate a chart, right everybody, you know,

163
00:09:50.919 --> 00:09:55.919
<v Speaker 4>how in regular just traditional astrology, everybody has the planets

164
00:09:56.399 --> 00:10:01.480
<v Speaker 4>against the zodiac, and the planets are sort of colorized

165
00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:06.039
<v Speaker 4>by the by the particular zodiac sign that they're in.

166
00:10:06.159 --> 00:10:12.240
<v Speaker 4>It it sort of blends significations and changes the sort

167
00:10:12.320 --> 00:10:16.679
<v Speaker 4>of quality of that planetary expression. Like if you have

168
00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:22.759
<v Speaker 4>Jupiter in cancer, that's like different than having Jupiter in areas.

169
00:10:23.240 --> 00:10:26.639
<v Speaker 4>You know, there's a total it's it's jubiterarian, but it's

170
00:10:26.639 --> 00:10:32.799
<v Speaker 4>a different Jupiter. So so according to quinarian astrology, which

171
00:10:32.840 --> 00:10:36.720
<v Speaker 4>is what I've been calling this, your planets are also

172
00:10:36.960 --> 00:10:40.759
<v Speaker 4>in a certain quinery at any given time, Like you

173
00:10:40.840 --> 00:10:45.320
<v Speaker 4>might have your son in the you know, fifteenth quinery,

174
00:10:45.919 --> 00:10:50.320
<v Speaker 4>you know, and and it's just you know, depending on

175
00:10:50.399 --> 00:10:54.159
<v Speaker 4>the angel or demon that rules that segment of the ecliptic,

176
00:10:54.200 --> 00:10:59.159
<v Speaker 4>and they're five degrees each that that sort of colors

177
00:10:59.279 --> 00:11:03.200
<v Speaker 4>the interpretation of that planet. Now, I was doing this

178
00:11:03.240 --> 00:11:05.559
<v Speaker 4>a number of years ago. I was doing this probably

179
00:11:05.600 --> 00:11:09.120
<v Speaker 4>ten years ago, and I was thinking about which quinery

180
00:11:09.440 --> 00:11:12.679
<v Speaker 4>my planets were in, not just my son, but all

181
00:11:12.720 --> 00:11:17.519
<v Speaker 4>your planets, right, And I was like, has anybody talked

182
00:11:17.519 --> 00:11:20.799
<v Speaker 4>about this? Has this been something that people have you know,

183
00:11:21.320 --> 00:11:25.360
<v Speaker 4>worked over already? And I found that that hasn't been

184
00:11:25.360 --> 00:11:28.919
<v Speaker 4>the case, that there's no record of it in the literature.

185
00:11:29.399 --> 00:11:32.039
<v Speaker 4>So I was like, you know, kind of a no brainer.

186
00:11:32.080 --> 00:11:34.799
<v Speaker 4>I was like, I've got to write this book, you know.

187
00:11:35.039 --> 00:11:40.919
<v Speaker 4>So that's kind of what started this project, is necessity

188
00:11:41.279 --> 00:11:44.559
<v Speaker 4>really at first, because I wanted to do that for

189
00:11:44.679 --> 00:11:48.039
<v Speaker 4>my own chart and the charts of people who I

190
00:11:48.519 --> 00:11:52.759
<v Speaker 4>you know, I read their nativities for, you know, and

191
00:11:52.799 --> 00:11:54.840
<v Speaker 4>I wanted to be able to tell them about the

192
00:11:54.879 --> 00:12:00.200
<v Speaker 4>demons and angels. So it's a totally different perspective on, uh,

193
00:12:01.080 --> 00:12:05.000
<v Speaker 4>the delineation of planets because instead of merely looking at

194
00:12:05.039 --> 00:12:08.559
<v Speaker 4>them in the sign or in the decan, you could

195
00:12:08.559 --> 00:12:14.679
<v Speaker 4>look at them more more even you know, exact, You

196
00:12:14.720 --> 00:12:17.000
<v Speaker 4>can get an exact picture of them in a five

197
00:12:17.080 --> 00:12:20.639
<v Speaker 4>degree arc segment as opposed to ten or thirty degrees

198
00:12:20.879 --> 00:12:24.840
<v Speaker 4>ten for the decand thirty for the sign, you know.

199
00:12:25.000 --> 00:12:29.080
<v Speaker 4>So it's just fine tuning things. And I was attracted

200
00:12:29.120 --> 00:12:30.039
<v Speaker 4>to the idea.

201
00:12:31.679 --> 00:12:34.600
<v Speaker 1>Nice is that too much?

202
00:12:34.799 --> 00:12:37.559
<v Speaker 4>Is that too because I could break that down more.

203
00:12:37.840 --> 00:12:40.399
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, you should have kept going like the Energizer bunny

204
00:12:40.720 --> 00:12:42.639
<v Speaker 6>because I was you shouldn't even stop.

205
00:12:42.879 --> 00:12:46.440
<v Speaker 1>I was gonna ask you, uh yeah, well I understood

206
00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:48.360
<v Speaker 1>where you're going with it, and I just wanted to say,

207
00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:51.120
<v Speaker 1>like for the listeners and people even on the panel

208
00:12:51.240 --> 00:12:54.919
<v Speaker 1>or aren't maybe even quite sure about the Croatia, maybe

209
00:12:54.960 --> 00:12:56.519
<v Speaker 1>I should have asked this first. But I mean, it's

210
00:12:56.519 --> 00:12:59.320
<v Speaker 1>really no big deal. What do you think the point

211
00:12:59.440 --> 00:13:01.519
<v Speaker 1>of the gowai and the way you're looking at it, Like,

212
00:13:01.559 --> 00:13:03.200
<v Speaker 1>what's the point of the book, Like what do you

213
00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:06.120
<v Speaker 1>think that actually is? You know what I'm saying like that?

214
00:13:06.440 --> 00:13:08.240
<v Speaker 4>So yeah, yeah, I think I do.

215
00:13:08.480 --> 00:13:08.559
<v Speaker 6>So.

216
00:13:10.120 --> 00:13:16.799
<v Speaker 4>I'm I believe in magic as an objective phenomenon, you know,

217
00:13:16.919 --> 00:13:20.600
<v Speaker 4>so for me, it's not psychologized. I don't believe that

218
00:13:20.879 --> 00:13:24.360
<v Speaker 4>the Goiesha, for example, the demons of the artist Goiesia.

219
00:13:25.240 --> 00:13:29.360
<v Speaker 4>I believe that they have an objective ontology or reality

220
00:13:29.399 --> 00:13:32.519
<v Speaker 4>of their own, you know, And it's not contingent on

221
00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:38.519
<v Speaker 4>how like me psychologically projecting that into the world. So

222
00:13:38.919 --> 00:13:43.559
<v Speaker 4>I believe in their reality, the demons reality, you know,

223
00:13:43.799 --> 00:13:50.440
<v Speaker 4>as being real. You know that there are these demonic forces, right,

224
00:13:50.559 --> 00:13:54.879
<v Speaker 4>these entities really and same thing with angels, though they

225
00:13:54.960 --> 00:13:59.200
<v Speaker 4>might be a little more abstract like angels. They've been

226
00:13:59.240 --> 00:14:02.519
<v Speaker 4>talked about from Ius all the way through John D.

227
00:14:03.159 --> 00:14:07.519
<v Speaker 4>People have talked about the angels as being mathematical equations,

228
00:14:07.559 --> 00:14:13.600
<v Speaker 4>you know, they're they're more like abstract mathematical entities, which

229
00:14:13.720 --> 00:14:18.159
<v Speaker 4>makes sense to me. That's that doesn't lessen their their

230
00:14:18.279 --> 00:14:24.679
<v Speaker 4>sort of reality as an entity just because they're abstract.

231
00:14:25.240 --> 00:14:28.320
<v Speaker 4>You know, it's kind of a platonic thing. There's forms,

232
00:14:28.759 --> 00:14:31.039
<v Speaker 4>and then they get more and more solid as you

233
00:14:31.120 --> 00:14:35.559
<v Speaker 4>go down the scale from from the one to the

234
00:14:35.759 --> 00:14:40.440
<v Speaker 4>no way realm. Yeah, exactly, and all the way down

235
00:14:40.480 --> 00:14:45.480
<v Speaker 4>to like kabalistically what you would call malcoot or or

236
00:14:47.080 --> 00:14:52.039
<v Speaker 4>I what's us A S S I S.

237
00:14:56.279 --> 00:14:58.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know, actually you're talking about Plato in the one.

238
00:14:58.879 --> 00:15:03.720
<v Speaker 1>I actually dropped a two our showing up Plutonius yesterday.

239
00:15:03.799 --> 00:15:05.960
<v Speaker 1>Oh great, Yeah, I'm into that stuff for sure.

240
00:15:06.080 --> 00:15:11.360
<v Speaker 4>Oh yeah. So all that to say that, obviously, the

241
00:15:11.399 --> 00:15:15.840
<v Speaker 4>way that that the worldview that we inherit as modern

242
00:15:15.960 --> 00:15:21.960
<v Speaker 4>day Westerners is one of matter and energy, you know,

243
00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:29.039
<v Speaker 4>and one that is scientific but at the sort of

244
00:15:29.440 --> 00:15:37.759
<v Speaker 4>peril of you know, this material paradigm. Right, So I

245
00:15:37.840 --> 00:15:42.559
<v Speaker 4>believe that there should be room for the metaphysical, and

246
00:15:42.559 --> 00:15:44.720
<v Speaker 4>that we don't need to think of it in terms

247
00:15:44.759 --> 00:15:47.799
<v Speaker 4>of like, here's a popular thing the last twenty five

248
00:15:47.879 --> 00:15:54.039
<v Speaker 4>years or so that quantum entanglement and theoretical physics and

249
00:15:54.120 --> 00:15:57.799
<v Speaker 4>all this sort of stuff explains a way magic. I

250
00:15:57.799 --> 00:16:00.480
<v Speaker 4>don't think that it does, because I look at magic,

251
00:16:00.639 --> 00:16:04.000
<v Speaker 4>like it says in Agrippa the picka tricks all the

252
00:16:04.000 --> 00:16:10.080
<v Speaker 4>way back. It says, magic is simply a cult causality.

253
00:16:10.879 --> 00:16:15.480
<v Speaker 4>It's causality, but you can't see the causal agent, you know,

254
00:16:15.600 --> 00:16:20.440
<v Speaker 4>So it's a hidden causality. You know, something happens as

255
00:16:20.440 --> 00:16:26.200
<v Speaker 4>if by magic, you know, not like you know, me

256
00:16:26.440 --> 00:16:30.960
<v Speaker 4>getting up and physically doing something or you know. So

257
00:16:31.279 --> 00:16:35.600
<v Speaker 4>I think that I think that it's time to reclaim

258
00:16:35.720 --> 00:16:41.639
<v Speaker 4>that worldview. And it's something that's difficult to change, of course,

259
00:16:41.799 --> 00:16:48.600
<v Speaker 4>So this atheistic materialism is difficult to get over. It's

260
00:16:48.639 --> 00:16:53.000
<v Speaker 4>difficult to you know, build upon that other than physically.

261
00:16:54.559 --> 00:16:57.480
<v Speaker 4>But I think when we talk about magic, we're talking

262
00:16:57.519 --> 00:17:02.279
<v Speaker 4>about metaphysics. It's beyond the physical realm. So if you

263
00:17:02.519 --> 00:17:05.359
<v Speaker 4>if you try and express it or explain it as

264
00:17:05.440 --> 00:17:12.240
<v Speaker 4>being quantum this or energy that, or psychologically this or that,

265
00:17:12.920 --> 00:17:18.359
<v Speaker 4>you're you're automatically veering away from magic and you're into

266
00:17:18.400 --> 00:17:21.640
<v Speaker 4>the physical again. So it's not a Medai. Does that

267
00:17:21.720 --> 00:17:25.039
<v Speaker 4>make sense. It's not a it's not a physics, it's

268
00:17:25.079 --> 00:17:26.160
<v Speaker 4>a metaphysics.

269
00:17:27.400 --> 00:17:33.599
<v Speaker 1>I totally get that. Yeah, Jin Josh. If you guys

270
00:17:33.640 --> 00:17:36.480
<v Speaker 1>want to ask anything specific, do.

271
00:17:36.599 --> 00:17:39.359
<v Speaker 2>You I have a quick one, Jamie. Do you feel

272
00:17:39.359 --> 00:17:43.880
<v Speaker 2>that angels occupy the same ontological or even cosmological space

273
00:17:44.000 --> 00:17:45.440
<v Speaker 2>as the goet experience.

274
00:17:46.279 --> 00:17:49.079
<v Speaker 4>No. I think of angels as being in this sort

275
00:17:49.079 --> 00:17:52.279
<v Speaker 4>of beyond the oakdo ad, so the fixed stars in

276
00:17:52.319 --> 00:17:56.240
<v Speaker 4>the zodiac or Hokma if you prefer, I look at

277
00:17:56.240 --> 00:18:00.759
<v Speaker 4>the angels as being entities that are in the essentially

278
00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:06.920
<v Speaker 4>the any attic realm, right that they are noetic and

279
00:18:06.920 --> 00:18:11.519
<v Speaker 4>and further than that, I think of demons as being

280
00:18:12.799 --> 00:18:16.200
<v Speaker 4>at or below the do ad, because of course you

281
00:18:16.240 --> 00:18:20.039
<v Speaker 4>get aerial demons and fiery demons, but you also get

282
00:18:20.119 --> 00:18:23.839
<v Speaker 4>stellar demons like those are that are found among the Deccans,

283
00:18:24.519 --> 00:18:28.279
<v Speaker 4>the decanal demons, and now in the quinnaries like the

284
00:18:29.039 --> 00:18:33.599
<v Speaker 4>of the ars go Issha, these goetic demons. They're also

285
00:18:34.720 --> 00:18:38.799
<v Speaker 4>on or below the do Ad, the eighth sphere. So

286
00:18:39.400 --> 00:18:45.960
<v Speaker 4>in the in your typical like Platonic and Kabbalistic models,

287
00:18:46.119 --> 00:18:51.039
<v Speaker 4>right cosmological models, you find that that's kind of the

288
00:18:51.039 --> 00:18:55.480
<v Speaker 4>cutoff point. Everything can be physical or astral up to

289
00:18:55.559 --> 00:18:58.839
<v Speaker 4>the up to and including the do Ad, but beyond

290
00:18:58.880 --> 00:19:03.279
<v Speaker 4>that you're ending, You're you're getting into the super celestial

291
00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:07.880
<v Speaker 4>as a Grippa would call it. And these are these

292
00:19:07.920 --> 00:19:13.200
<v Speaker 4>are entities that are you know, abstract sort of. So

293
00:19:13.559 --> 00:19:16.559
<v Speaker 4>angels have always been described as that pretty much. And

294
00:19:16.839 --> 00:19:22.759
<v Speaker 4>angels angelos right there it means messenger. They're messengers from

295
00:19:22.839 --> 00:19:29.000
<v Speaker 4>the one to the through down to thysis what the

296
00:19:29.039 --> 00:19:33.240
<v Speaker 4>Greeks would call it physis. And you know, again that

297
00:19:33.279 --> 00:19:36.880
<v Speaker 4>Platonic model of the one or tohen and then the

298
00:19:36.960 --> 00:19:42.440
<v Speaker 4>no edic realm, and then the the sort of astral

299
00:19:42.880 --> 00:19:49.200
<v Speaker 4>us astral realm of us psyche and then down to.

300
00:19:49.680 --> 00:19:52.480
<v Speaker 2>Uh, sorry, Jamie, when you're saying psyche, could you be

301
00:19:52.559 --> 00:19:54.920
<v Speaker 2>referring to your sod or that Youde death.

302
00:19:54.799 --> 00:20:00.480
<v Speaker 4>Connection yeah, I guess you could say in that zone, right,

303
00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:03.039
<v Speaker 4>because that would be the planetary zone. When you go

304
00:20:03.119 --> 00:20:07.960
<v Speaker 4>from Beina down to Ysoude. You're really talking about Saturn

305
00:20:08.400 --> 00:20:12.279
<v Speaker 4>down to the Moon. So we happen to live in

306
00:20:12.400 --> 00:20:18.680
<v Speaker 4>the sublunary world right where humans inhabit the sub lunar realm,

307
00:20:19.119 --> 00:20:22.880
<v Speaker 4>that is to say, below the moon, so the astral

308
00:20:22.920 --> 00:20:27.720
<v Speaker 4>realms and of Psyche, you know, would be between the

309
00:20:27.759 --> 00:20:31.359
<v Speaker 4>Moon and all the way up into Hokmah, the fixed

310
00:20:31.359 --> 00:20:36.640
<v Speaker 4>stars and the zodiac. So it's.

311
00:20:37.400 --> 00:20:39.920
<v Speaker 2>You're one of the first ocultists. Sorry Jimmy, but you're

312
00:20:39.920 --> 00:20:43.079
<v Speaker 2>one of the first ocultists I've really heard refer to

313
00:20:43.119 --> 00:20:46.119
<v Speaker 2>Hokmah as being this place of fixed stars. I also

314
00:20:46.200 --> 00:20:47.799
<v Speaker 2>refer to it as like a place of flux, a

315
00:20:47.880 --> 00:20:52.359
<v Speaker 2>smoky place sometimes, but it's good to hear that. I'm

316
00:20:52.400 --> 00:20:57.359
<v Speaker 2>not totally you know, out on an island, right.

317
00:20:59.160 --> 00:21:02.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it's it's you know, I definitely think these models

318
00:21:02.640 --> 00:21:05.440
<v Speaker 4>are compatible. And if you look at the Tree of Life,

319
00:21:07.359 --> 00:21:12.039
<v Speaker 4>doesn't it Yeah, the fixed stars, fixed stars in the zodiac.

320
00:21:12.279 --> 00:21:14.559
<v Speaker 4>If you look at the Tree of Life, it's really

321
00:21:14.640 --> 00:21:20.720
<v Speaker 4>just the Ptolemaic cosmos with Malcouth being the the you know,

322
00:21:21.279 --> 00:21:25.160
<v Speaker 4>the realm of the four Empedoclian elements, you know that

323
00:21:25.200 --> 00:21:28.640
<v Speaker 4>are in a state of flux, a state of what

324
00:21:28.759 --> 00:21:33.480
<v Speaker 4>Aristotle would call generation and corruption. And then once you

325
00:21:33.519 --> 00:21:37.200
<v Speaker 4>get up to the moon and that sort of etheric

326
00:21:37.319 --> 00:21:42.400
<v Speaker 4>sphere and beyond, then you're talking about you know, the

327
00:21:42.440 --> 00:21:47.160
<v Speaker 4>astral or the realm, corresponding to psyche in the Platonic

328
00:21:47.279 --> 00:21:52.559
<v Speaker 4>and neo Platonic cosmology, and uh yeah, going all the

329
00:21:52.599 --> 00:21:56.079
<v Speaker 4>way up again to Hokma fixed stars in the zodiac,

330
00:21:56.640 --> 00:22:00.759
<v Speaker 4>and then you have you know, uh, Cather which is

331
00:22:00.799 --> 00:22:05.680
<v Speaker 4>like the ani attic zone or maybe the sort of

332
00:22:06.119 --> 00:22:08.759
<v Speaker 4>maybe even beyond that to some extent, or maybe that

333
00:22:08.799 --> 00:22:12.799
<v Speaker 4>would be on I'm so fine so far where you're

334
00:22:12.799 --> 00:22:18.960
<v Speaker 4>really into that abstract angelic world, super celestial.

335
00:22:19.160 --> 00:22:21.920
<v Speaker 1>It was like beyond like they're almost formless.

336
00:22:22.799 --> 00:22:27.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, abstract platonic an idea or a form capital

337
00:22:27.720 --> 00:22:28.720
<v Speaker 4>I capital F.

338
00:22:30.640 --> 00:22:31.759
<v Speaker 2>Could you say epanoya?

339
00:22:31.920 --> 00:22:35.480
<v Speaker 4>May say that again, what.

340
00:22:35.359 --> 00:22:38.640
<v Speaker 2>Do you think of using the word epanoya to describe

341
00:22:39.000 --> 00:22:40.160
<v Speaker 2>what you're talking about?

342
00:22:41.039 --> 00:22:45.160
<v Speaker 4>Epanoia? I haven't read that word, but I can kind

343
00:22:45.160 --> 00:22:52.000
<v Speaker 4>of think of that. You're saying beyond the noose, right, yes, yeah,

344
00:22:52.319 --> 00:22:57.720
<v Speaker 4>so beyond the noose. Yeah, I mean, because the news begins,

345
00:22:58.000 --> 00:23:02.440
<v Speaker 4>if we're speaking kabalistically, the noetic realm begins after the

346
00:23:02.440 --> 00:23:05.319
<v Speaker 4>fixed stars in the zodiac. We and this is something

347
00:23:05.359 --> 00:23:09.319
<v Speaker 4>I really dig very deeply into in my book because

348
00:23:10.359 --> 00:23:16.039
<v Speaker 4>when we're talking about that the intellectual world, right, the

349
00:23:16.119 --> 00:23:24.279
<v Speaker 4>abstract intellectual world news or the noetic world. What's what's

350
00:23:24.319 --> 00:23:27.799
<v Speaker 4>interesting about my book is that this is the first

351
00:23:27.839 --> 00:23:32.359
<v Speaker 4>astrology that's actually dealing And this is one of the

352
00:23:32.400 --> 00:23:35.480
<v Speaker 4>sort of hidden jewels of this book that I hope

353
00:23:35.519 --> 00:23:44.519
<v Speaker 4>people understand is that I'm using the method of astrology, right,

354
00:23:44.599 --> 00:23:50.480
<v Speaker 4>I'm astrologizing the noetic realm with this technique that's to

355
00:23:50.519 --> 00:23:53.319
<v Speaker 4>my knowledge that's never been done before. You know, to

356
00:23:53.440 --> 00:23:58.759
<v Speaker 4>get into this demonic and angelic astrology is to use

357
00:23:58.920 --> 00:24:03.839
<v Speaker 4>the the method that has normally been applied to everything

358
00:24:03.880 --> 00:24:08.640
<v Speaker 4>from Ysoude to Hokma that is to say, from really

359
00:24:09.440 --> 00:24:16.319
<v Speaker 4>the world like the Malkuth or Asia all the way

360
00:24:16.440 --> 00:24:19.240
<v Speaker 4>up to Hokmah, the fixed stars in the zodiac. That's

361
00:24:19.279 --> 00:24:23.880
<v Speaker 4>where our magic has has been and our astrology has been.

362
00:24:24.559 --> 00:24:30.960
<v Speaker 4>But this is to take astrology beyond the odoad. So

363
00:24:31.000 --> 00:24:36.400
<v Speaker 4>now we're we're using the methods of astrology to work

364
00:24:36.440 --> 00:24:42.079
<v Speaker 4>with angels and demons, so and I've never seen that before.

365
00:24:42.559 --> 00:24:47.039
<v Speaker 4>So I think that's something that's of interest, is these

366
00:24:47.319 --> 00:24:51.799
<v Speaker 4>these you know, philosophical implications of this sort of astrology,

367
00:24:52.200 --> 00:24:56.400
<v Speaker 4>Like you have Agrippa for example. Agrippa has three books

368
00:24:56.640 --> 00:25:00.680
<v Speaker 4>and they're cosmological because book one is element mental and

369
00:25:01.599 --> 00:25:06.279
<v Speaker 4>sort of natural, the natural world, elemental world, that is

370
00:25:06.319 --> 00:25:10.480
<v Speaker 4>to say, the sub lunar. The second book is sort

371
00:25:10.519 --> 00:25:14.440
<v Speaker 4>of astral and celestial, that is to say, this zone

372
00:25:14.559 --> 00:25:18.440
<v Speaker 4>between the moon and the fixed stars and the zodiac

373
00:25:18.480 --> 00:25:23.759
<v Speaker 4>and everything in between, all the planets, and then beyond

374
00:25:23.799 --> 00:25:27.880
<v Speaker 4>that is what a grip calls the super celestial. So

375
00:25:28.359 --> 00:25:33.200
<v Speaker 4>that's that's the nouse or the noose, and that's this

376
00:25:33.400 --> 00:25:38.519
<v Speaker 4>abstract plane, and that's where Plato's forms are. That's that's

377
00:25:38.559 --> 00:25:42.599
<v Speaker 4>the realm of ideas. It's the intellectual world, and you

378
00:25:42.680 --> 00:25:47.880
<v Speaker 4>have angels there, right. So if we're using the methods

379
00:25:47.880 --> 00:25:52.720
<v Speaker 4>of astrology, but we're we are using that, but we're

380
00:25:52.759 --> 00:25:58.839
<v Speaker 4>puncturing the okdo ad the a sphere and applying those

381
00:25:58.920 --> 00:26:04.480
<v Speaker 4>methods for the first time, I believe astrologically. Does that

382
00:26:04.559 --> 00:26:05.079
<v Speaker 4>make sense.

383
00:26:06.359 --> 00:26:07.720
<v Speaker 2>It's really quite profound.

384
00:26:07.720 --> 00:26:11.319
<v Speaker 4>What you're saying Actually, to be honest, yeah, I don't know.

385
00:26:11.519 --> 00:26:14.279
<v Speaker 4>I thought so too. Right years ago, I was thinking

386
00:26:14.279 --> 00:26:17.920
<v Speaker 4>about this stuff and I looked and nobody was talking

387
00:26:17.960 --> 00:26:21.079
<v Speaker 4>about it. Nobody had written anything about it. I mean,

388
00:26:21.119 --> 00:26:24.960
<v Speaker 4>I'm sure people have worked this before, but they they

389
00:26:25.400 --> 00:26:33.119
<v Speaker 4>left no record. They left no record. So it's pretty

390
00:26:33.400 --> 00:26:37.759
<v Speaker 4>I mean, it's it's really interesting.

391
00:26:38.279 --> 00:26:41.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, real quick too, not to get I guess, like

392
00:26:41.359 --> 00:26:43.319
<v Speaker 1>too much of the book unless this is in there,

393
00:26:43.359 --> 00:26:48.039
<v Speaker 1>I have no idea, but like, I guess, does this

394
00:26:48.279 --> 00:26:53.640
<v Speaker 1>change or like, how would you ritualistically the way this

395
00:26:53.720 --> 00:26:55.359
<v Speaker 1>is supposed to be done. Would it's still be is

396
00:26:56.240 --> 00:26:58.400
<v Speaker 1>as like it's normally be suggested in the past, or

397
00:26:58.480 --> 00:26:59.599
<v Speaker 1>does anything changed with that?

398
00:27:02.039 --> 00:27:04.200
<v Speaker 4>Not too much? I mean, if you ever made like

399
00:27:04.240 --> 00:27:07.880
<v Speaker 4>an angelic talisman, you know, have the sigil of the

400
00:27:08.000 --> 00:27:14.200
<v Speaker 4>archangel on a talisman that you're creating right, that has

401
00:27:14.279 --> 00:27:19.200
<v Speaker 4>been done right. But typically for an election, when you elect,

402
00:27:19.359 --> 00:27:22.960
<v Speaker 4>when to do something an astrological election is when you

403
00:27:24.039 --> 00:27:29.079
<v Speaker 4>preconceive of a time and day that you want to

404
00:27:29.200 --> 00:27:33.960
<v Speaker 4>set a cycle in motion. When you do that, you

405
00:27:34.000 --> 00:27:36.759
<v Speaker 4>could you know, you could use the chain of being

406
00:27:37.160 --> 00:27:39.880
<v Speaker 4>essentially like the solar chain of being comes from the

407
00:27:39.920 --> 00:27:45.759
<v Speaker 4>abstract sun, then into the the physical sun in space,

408
00:27:46.680 --> 00:27:50.759
<v Speaker 4>and then into the animal mineral, vegetable world through like

409
00:27:51.400 --> 00:27:57.839
<v Speaker 4>Saint John's war, roosters, lions, actual gold. You know, there's

410
00:27:57.880 --> 00:28:01.319
<v Speaker 4>this chain. Every planet has a a chain that is

411
00:28:01.359 --> 00:28:06.319
<v Speaker 4>stratified through the worlds, you know, from the intellectual the

412
00:28:06.359 --> 00:28:10.799
<v Speaker 4>sun behind the sun, the idea of the sun, and

413
00:28:10.839 --> 00:28:14.640
<v Speaker 4>then into the astral or celestial the actual sun, the

414
00:28:15.480 --> 00:28:19.119
<v Speaker 4>you know, fiery ball that we see, and then down

415
00:28:19.279 --> 00:28:24.359
<v Speaker 4>into below the below you sewed in the sub lunary world.

416
00:28:24.599 --> 00:28:28.519
<v Speaker 4>That's where we find you know, like lions and roosters

417
00:28:28.559 --> 00:28:32.480
<v Speaker 4>and Saint John's wort and everything that is on the

418
00:28:32.519 --> 00:28:37.200
<v Speaker 4>solar chain or the Solar series I believe they called

419
00:28:37.240 --> 00:28:42.440
<v Speaker 4>it SerII. You know, was like having to do with

420
00:28:42.559 --> 00:28:46.079
<v Speaker 4>this chain of being, and of course Ficino dealt a

421
00:28:46.119 --> 00:28:48.279
<v Speaker 4>lot with this, but it goes all the way back

422
00:28:48.279 --> 00:28:53.440
<v Speaker 4>to the Neoplaitis as well, and the hermatists antiqukermatism.

423
00:28:53.839 --> 00:28:55.640
<v Speaker 1>This it almost sounds like if you were to take

424
00:28:55.680 --> 00:28:59.759
<v Speaker 1>like the full worlds are different. It was slightly like that.

425
00:29:00.079 --> 00:29:02.119
<v Speaker 1>If you look at it cabalistically.

426
00:29:02.599 --> 00:29:08.240
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, you could definitely it tracks very nicely with the

427
00:29:08.279 --> 00:29:14.319
<v Speaker 4>four worlds, where you have you have absolute as being

428
00:29:14.440 --> 00:29:20.440
<v Speaker 4>the most abstract, and then Bria just a little more density,

429
00:29:20.920 --> 00:29:25.640
<v Speaker 4>and then Yatsura which is kind of planetary and celestial,

430
00:29:26.160 --> 00:29:32.000
<v Speaker 4>and then Asia which is you know, elemental and natural

431
00:29:32.720 --> 00:29:39.119
<v Speaker 4>sub lunary. So everything everything in magic fits this sort

432
00:29:39.160 --> 00:29:43.319
<v Speaker 4>of scale, right, everybody who's ever written about it, seriously,

433
00:29:43.559 --> 00:29:49.119
<v Speaker 4>like all the Grimoire magicians and the people who compose

434
00:29:49.240 --> 00:29:53.119
<v Speaker 4>this stuff, we're working on a very similar worldview. And

435
00:29:54.000 --> 00:29:58.480
<v Speaker 4>if you're going to understand astrology and magic and alchemy,

436
00:29:58.799 --> 00:30:04.759
<v Speaker 4>the three hermetic arts, right, astrology, alchemy, and the orgy

437
00:30:05.279 --> 00:30:08.400
<v Speaker 4>or magic if you are that's a form of magic.

438
00:30:08.440 --> 00:30:11.200
<v Speaker 4>It's a lot wider than that. But if you're going

439
00:30:11.279 --> 00:30:13.720
<v Speaker 4>to understand the harmatic arts, you have to know the

440
00:30:13.759 --> 00:30:17.079
<v Speaker 4>cosmology they're working with. You know, you have to know

441
00:30:17.160 --> 00:30:21.240
<v Speaker 4>what world you're in essentially, and sometimes you have to

442
00:30:21.359 --> 00:30:27.880
<v Speaker 4>stack your synthomata as they call it, which are representations

443
00:30:28.039 --> 00:30:34.839
<v Speaker 4>of that let's say solar entity, right, you have you

444
00:30:35.000 --> 00:30:38.319
<v Speaker 4>have to like be able to suspend those in a chain.

445
00:30:38.880 --> 00:30:45.400
<v Speaker 4>If you're going to do say, say a talisman, Let's

446
00:30:45.400 --> 00:30:48.119
<v Speaker 4>say you're going to make a talisman, you know you

447
00:30:48.119 --> 00:30:50.559
<v Speaker 4>would do it. And again we'll just use the Sun

448
00:30:50.680 --> 00:30:53.440
<v Speaker 4>because it's easy. If you're going to make a talisman,

449
00:30:53.519 --> 00:30:55.880
<v Speaker 4>you have to do it when the sun is in

450
00:30:57.039 --> 00:31:00.960
<v Speaker 4>Leo or maybe Aries, because the sun is exalted in

451
00:31:01.079 --> 00:31:05.119
<v Speaker 4>areas and the Sun rules Leo. So I'd put the

452
00:31:05.160 --> 00:31:07.960
<v Speaker 4>sun in one of those two signs. I would do

453
00:31:08.000 --> 00:31:10.759
<v Speaker 4>this on a Sunday, which is the day ruled by

454
00:31:10.759 --> 00:31:15.680
<v Speaker 4>the Sun, and I would I would do it during

455
00:31:15.720 --> 00:31:19.880
<v Speaker 4>a solar hour. The hours of the day, the natural

456
00:31:20.079 --> 00:31:24.920
<v Speaker 4>hours of the day. They expand and contract depending on daytime, nighttime,

457
00:31:25.000 --> 00:31:28.960
<v Speaker 4>and the equinoctial points. But I would do it during

458
00:31:29.880 --> 00:31:34.039
<v Speaker 4>a solar hour, and I would set up as much

459
00:31:34.119 --> 00:31:39.039
<v Speaker 4>symtematic as possible. I would burn the appropriate fumigation. I

460
00:31:39.039 --> 00:31:42.559
<v Speaker 4>would I would have I would have like a yellow candle.

461
00:31:43.119 --> 00:31:47.640
<v Speaker 4>You know, I do this stuff all the time, making talismans.

462
00:31:48.039 --> 00:31:50.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's I've mentioned on the show that like even

463
00:31:50.279 --> 00:31:52.799
<v Speaker 1>myself when I would make tealismans, like if I was like,

464
00:31:52.880 --> 00:31:55.519
<v Speaker 1>let's say, putting Jupiter or Mercury together is a good mix,

465
00:31:57.400 --> 00:31:58.839
<v Speaker 1>you know, I could pick like, you know, I'll do

466
00:31:58.880 --> 00:32:01.440
<v Speaker 1>a Thursday on like the hour Mercury, or I'll do

467
00:32:01.480 --> 00:32:04.200
<v Speaker 1>it on Wednesday on the hour of Jupiter, like when

468
00:32:04.200 --> 00:32:06.119
<v Speaker 1>I make the talisman, and like, yeah, I may not

469
00:32:06.160 --> 00:32:08.880
<v Speaker 1>even do the ritual then, but I'm gonna pick that

470
00:32:09.000 --> 00:32:11.759
<v Speaker 1>day in time to even construct the talisman to make

471
00:32:11.759 --> 00:32:14.200
<v Speaker 1>it for the ritual that I'm eventually gonna do, and

472
00:32:14.240 --> 00:32:16.680
<v Speaker 1>then that will even match. That will even match again

473
00:32:16.720 --> 00:32:19.160
<v Speaker 1>the hour the planets that I just made for the talisman.

474
00:32:19.200 --> 00:32:21.839
<v Speaker 1>And like you said, I would construct my own incense.

475
00:32:22.160 --> 00:32:24.319
<v Speaker 1>I'd make my own mixes, and the candles would match

476
00:32:24.359 --> 00:32:26.279
<v Speaker 1>the colors. Sometimes even the ul the cloth I'd use

477
00:32:26.319 --> 00:32:29.000
<v Speaker 1>would even still match colors. I would have interchange the stuff.

478
00:32:29.680 --> 00:32:33.920
<v Speaker 1>I was very you know, I guess overdne but it

479
00:32:34.000 --> 00:32:37.240
<v Speaker 1>works for me. Yeah, yeah, but that's it's great to

480
00:32:37.240 --> 00:32:38.079
<v Speaker 1>hear somebody else say that.

481
00:32:38.079 --> 00:32:40.960
<v Speaker 4>I was like, oh shit, yeah, it's a good practice, right.

482
00:32:41.440 --> 00:32:44.640
<v Speaker 4>And you know, a lot of people in the grim March,

483
00:32:44.839 --> 00:32:47.000
<v Speaker 4>so here's a little bit of a mix up, right,

484
00:32:47.359 --> 00:32:49.640
<v Speaker 4>A lot of people who are more familiar with the

485
00:32:50.440 --> 00:32:54.839
<v Speaker 4>operative magical procedures, you know, they're they're familiar with grimoire

486
00:32:55.000 --> 00:32:58.359
<v Speaker 4>magic and stuff like that. They sort of stop at

487
00:32:58.480 --> 00:33:02.240
<v Speaker 4>planetary day and hour, you know, Sunday on an hour

488
00:33:02.279 --> 00:33:04.640
<v Speaker 4>of the sun, and that's kind of the you know,

489
00:33:04.839 --> 00:33:07.400
<v Speaker 4>and that's good, right, But if you want like an

490
00:33:07.480 --> 00:33:11.440
<v Speaker 4>eight or nine point sun, you know, a very strong talisman,

491
00:33:11.720 --> 00:33:15.759
<v Speaker 4>then you've got to do it in Leo or Ares,

492
00:33:16.039 --> 00:33:18.799
<v Speaker 4>and you have to do it in like the bound

493
00:33:19.240 --> 00:33:25.200
<v Speaker 4>or term of the Sun, and maybe even also in

494
00:33:25.279 --> 00:33:29.799
<v Speaker 4>the decan, the solar decan, if there is one in Leo. Right,

495
00:33:29.880 --> 00:33:36.160
<v Speaker 4>So if you have decan term or yeah, decan term

496
00:33:37.519 --> 00:33:45.240
<v Speaker 4>and the triplicity rulership like the sun by day and

497
00:33:45.240 --> 00:33:48.039
<v Speaker 4>and you also have like the day and hour, and

498
00:33:48.079 --> 00:33:51.559
<v Speaker 4>you have the Sun in domicile or in exaltation, you

499
00:33:51.599 --> 00:33:54.200
<v Speaker 4>want to stack as much of that as possible, and

500
00:33:54.240 --> 00:33:58.039
<v Speaker 4>it goes beyond merely having the planetary day and hour.

501
00:33:58.359 --> 00:33:59.079
<v Speaker 4>If you're doing a.

502
00:33:59.039 --> 00:34:01.680
<v Speaker 1>Whole chart, actually you could get crazy stuff.

503
00:34:01.759 --> 00:34:04.519
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, for sure, you can get you can get totally crazy.

504
00:34:05.480 --> 00:34:07.920
<v Speaker 1>Did you do you just random question? Sorry? Do you

505
00:34:07.920 --> 00:34:10.880
<v Speaker 1>have an experience with the hexagrammatul.

506
00:34:11.719 --> 00:34:15.199
<v Speaker 4>M m No. Okay, that's literally that's literally above my

507
00:34:15.280 --> 00:34:15.880
<v Speaker 4>grade right now.

508
00:34:15.920 --> 00:34:17.840
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I just know what's for planet. I use it

509
00:34:17.840 --> 00:34:18.960
<v Speaker 1>for planetary and energy.

510
00:34:19.039 --> 00:34:22.159
<v Speaker 4>So I'm just wondering if I've seen it used and

511
00:34:22.239 --> 00:34:25.880
<v Speaker 4>I understand how you know the hexagram and the six

512
00:34:26.519 --> 00:34:31.840
<v Speaker 4>six planets with the Sun in the middle. So I

513
00:34:32.280 --> 00:34:35.519
<v Speaker 4>understand the premise of it. I just haven't personally practiced

514
00:34:35.599 --> 00:34:39.320
<v Speaker 4>that because I'm just coming up to the portal grade

515
00:34:39.519 --> 00:34:43.119
<v Speaker 4>in Golden Dawn right now, so I haven't. I haven't

516
00:34:43.199 --> 00:34:47.519
<v Speaker 4>worked any of the adept Die grades yet, gotcha. But

517
00:34:47.559 --> 00:34:50.360
<v Speaker 4>I've been in. I've been in for like seven I

518
00:34:50.400 --> 00:34:54.480
<v Speaker 4>think I've been in seven or eight years, and you know,

519
00:34:54.559 --> 00:34:57.280
<v Speaker 4>I've been just going through it kind of slowly, in

520
00:34:57.480 --> 00:35:02.480
<v Speaker 4>with an organization, not like self initiation or whatever. I'm

521
00:35:02.880 --> 00:35:05.840
<v Speaker 4>in a Golden Dawn temple that meets and we're active

522
00:35:05.960 --> 00:35:09.440
<v Speaker 4>and stuff, but it's just taking time. I in fact

523
00:35:09.519 --> 00:35:13.679
<v Speaker 4>have to go to uh Victoria, British Columbia to get

524
00:35:13.719 --> 00:35:16.480
<v Speaker 4>my portal grade because that's where one of the chiefs is,

525
00:35:17.360 --> 00:35:19.679
<v Speaker 4>you know, So it's I have to fly for my

526
00:35:19.800 --> 00:35:21.159
<v Speaker 4>grades typically.

527
00:35:22.519 --> 00:35:24.519
<v Speaker 1>Okay, Now, I was just I was just wondering because

528
00:35:24.559 --> 00:35:25.599
<v Speaker 1>of the planetary stuff.

529
00:35:26.800 --> 00:35:29.559
<v Speaker 4>Sure, yeah, we kind of veered off there, but yeah,

530
00:35:29.599 --> 00:35:32.320
<v Speaker 4>it sounds like you know, something of the Golden dawns

531
00:35:32.440 --> 00:35:33.280
<v Speaker 4>Oh sure.

532
00:35:33.159 --> 00:35:35.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah. Well I was in the OTO

533
00:35:36.000 --> 00:35:38.519
<v Speaker 1>for a minute, so I mean, oh, I was too.

534
00:35:38.800 --> 00:35:40.639
<v Speaker 1>Oh I'm so sorry.

535
00:35:40.920 --> 00:35:44.360
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, right, yeah, it was about it was about twelve

536
00:35:44.440 --> 00:35:48.440
<v Speaker 4>or thirteen years ago. I was in to Hoodie Lodge.

537
00:35:48.119 --> 00:35:50.480
<v Speaker 1>In New York City, fuck Otty, that's where I was, man.

538
00:35:51.280 --> 00:35:55.280
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, I got my minerval on first first degree there.

539
00:35:55.360 --> 00:35:59.039
<v Speaker 1>Holy, I'll talk to you. I'm just wondering who the

540
00:35:59.079 --> 00:36:00.760
<v Speaker 1>lodge mason wasn't that's interesting?

541
00:36:00.760 --> 00:36:01.039
<v Speaker 5>All right?

542
00:36:01.719 --> 00:36:04.119
<v Speaker 1>Imagine I was there with you one did even realize

543
00:36:04.880 --> 00:36:07.159
<v Speaker 1>they'd be fucking bugged out? All right?

544
00:36:07.239 --> 00:36:07.320
<v Speaker 4>No?

545
00:36:07.440 --> 00:36:09.920
<v Speaker 1>So continue? Uh back to the Goisha.

546
00:36:10.000 --> 00:36:10.159
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

547
00:36:10.159 --> 00:36:12.480
<v Speaker 1>I was just asking if there was any different difference

548
00:36:12.480 --> 00:36:14.280
<v Speaker 1>in rituals, and you were in the ritual the way

549
00:36:14.320 --> 00:36:17.920
<v Speaker 1>that it's done, and you said no, So uh yeah,

550
00:36:17.920 --> 00:36:20.519
<v Speaker 1>you answered my question. Does anybody else.

551
00:36:20.440 --> 00:36:25.480
<v Speaker 4>Have any the way it's done in the Goishia? Right? Yeah,

552
00:36:25.559 --> 00:36:28.519
<v Speaker 4>you could use the same practices that you would use

553
00:36:28.559 --> 00:36:31.719
<v Speaker 4>in Mather's translation of the Gosha. You know.

554
00:36:31.920 --> 00:36:33.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, That's basically what I was getting at. Is it

555
00:36:33.800 --> 00:36:35.559
<v Speaker 1>gonna change? Look at that one.

556
00:36:35.599 --> 00:36:38.480
<v Speaker 4>It doesn't negate any of that nice nice all right, No,

557
00:36:38.639 --> 00:36:43.440
<v Speaker 4>that's great, but but it adds the astrological components. So

558
00:36:43.480 --> 00:36:45.719
<v Speaker 4>that's another thing that I think is important about this

559
00:36:45.880 --> 00:36:50.079
<v Speaker 4>work is that, you know, people think they can get

560
00:36:50.079 --> 00:36:54.480
<v Speaker 4>by knowing the minimum of astrology, and that's kind of

561
00:36:54.519 --> 00:36:56.840
<v Speaker 4>not the case. If you're going to skimp on anything,

562
00:36:57.440 --> 00:37:01.920
<v Speaker 4>you should do it elsewhere because you need to have

563
00:37:01.960 --> 00:37:06.480
<v Speaker 4>the astrological stuff in order. There's no way getting around.

564
00:37:06.639 --> 00:37:09.320
<v Speaker 4>If you're going to do proper alchemy and proper magic,

565
00:37:10.840 --> 00:37:13.920
<v Speaker 4>you kind of have to know astrology pretty well. You

566
00:37:14.039 --> 00:37:18.239
<v Speaker 4>have to be proficient, right or or there's a lot

567
00:37:18.280 --> 00:37:22.800
<v Speaker 4>of room for error. But you can't make a talisman

568
00:37:23.360 --> 00:37:25.320
<v Speaker 4>not knowing anything about astrology.

569
00:37:27.079 --> 00:37:28.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean, I think it would help to have

570
00:37:28.960 --> 00:37:30.840
<v Speaker 1>a little bit understanding.

571
00:37:31.079 --> 00:37:35.639
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and and cosmologically too, like we were talking about,

572
00:37:35.719 --> 00:37:37.960
<v Speaker 4>you have to have a picture. You have to have

573
00:37:38.000 --> 00:37:42.280
<v Speaker 4>a world picture. You have to have a paradigm, a

574
00:37:42.320 --> 00:37:46.719
<v Speaker 4>cosmological paradigm that you that you understand. And it could

575
00:37:46.760 --> 00:37:50.440
<v Speaker 4>be different. Like, well, here's something I talk about in

576
00:37:50.519 --> 00:37:53.800
<v Speaker 4>there as well, and and in other places, is that

577
00:37:55.599 --> 00:38:00.760
<v Speaker 4>is that astrology and magic and alchemy these are not

578
00:38:01.000 --> 00:38:08.480
<v Speaker 4>geocentric models. They're georeferential, you know, Like I tell people

579
00:38:08.519 --> 00:38:10.960
<v Speaker 4>this all the time. If you're looking let's say you're

580
00:38:11.000 --> 00:38:14.639
<v Speaker 4>out in space and you're at the celestial north and

581
00:38:14.679 --> 00:38:17.880
<v Speaker 4>you're looking down at our solar system, so you see

582
00:38:17.880 --> 00:38:20.280
<v Speaker 4>the sun in the middle. You see the planets going

583
00:38:20.320 --> 00:38:25.880
<v Speaker 4>around it, right, Can you visualize that you're in celestial

584
00:38:25.960 --> 00:38:28.719
<v Speaker 4>north looking down in our solar system. All you have

585
00:38:28.840 --> 00:38:33.280
<v Speaker 4>to do to astrologize is take the pin out of

586
00:38:33.360 --> 00:38:36.159
<v Speaker 4>the Sun and stick it in the Earth and keep

587
00:38:36.280 --> 00:38:40.079
<v Speaker 4>all the other motions the same. You're just envisioning the

588
00:38:40.760 --> 00:38:44.800
<v Speaker 4>Earth as the stationary object. Every other movement is the same.

589
00:38:45.159 --> 00:38:49.480
<v Speaker 4>Nobody asks you to believe anything that's wrong or antiquated.

590
00:38:49.800 --> 00:38:53.840
<v Speaker 4>You don't have to believe that it's geocentric because it's

591
00:38:53.880 --> 00:39:00.360
<v Speaker 4>not geocentric, it's georeferential. Because the Earth, as earthlings, that's

592
00:39:00.360 --> 00:39:04.719
<v Speaker 4>our locus of human consciousness. The locus of human consciousness

593
00:39:04.800 --> 00:39:08.559
<v Speaker 4>is the Earth. We experience the cosmos from the perspective

594
00:39:08.719 --> 00:39:13.000
<v Speaker 4>of the Earth. So again, nobody's asking me to believe

595
00:39:13.039 --> 00:39:18.960
<v Speaker 4>anything that's wrong or you know that's like anti Copernican

596
00:39:19.119 --> 00:39:23.800
<v Speaker 4>or anything. So you know, I mean not that we

597
00:39:24.159 --> 00:39:27.639
<v Speaker 4>not that we need science to defend our magic. In fact,

598
00:39:27.840 --> 00:39:30.760
<v Speaker 4>once you apply science to magic, it ceases to become

599
00:39:30.880 --> 00:39:35.679
<v Speaker 4>magic and it just becomes physics. Right, So you don't

600
00:39:35.719 --> 00:39:41.159
<v Speaker 4>need you don't need the atheistic materialism and nihilism that

601
00:39:41.679 --> 00:39:53.320
<v Speaker 4>modern scientific paradigm's supply right or imply. Yeah, I've got to.

602
00:39:53.480 --> 00:39:56.079
<v Speaker 4>I've got a pretty radical view about that sort of stuff,

603
00:39:56.719 --> 00:40:00.760
<v Speaker 4>like I don't need to psychologize magic or astrology. I

604
00:40:00.800 --> 00:40:05.519
<v Speaker 4>don't need to quantumize it, or I believe in it

605
00:40:05.599 --> 00:40:09.960
<v Speaker 4>as it is. You know, it's a metaphysics, so I'm

606
00:40:09.960 --> 00:40:14.840
<v Speaker 4>not trying to explain it away by quantum and physics

607
00:40:14.840 --> 00:40:20.760
<v Speaker 4>and theoretical physics and psychology. You know a lot of

608
00:40:20.760 --> 00:40:23.440
<v Speaker 4>people you'd be surprised a lot of people do that.

609
00:40:23.599 --> 00:40:28.880
<v Speaker 4>I know tons of people who are practicing magicians, let's say,

610
00:40:28.960 --> 00:40:36.239
<v Speaker 4>or and alchemists and astrologers who try and put either

611
00:40:36.280 --> 00:40:42.119
<v Speaker 4>a psychological or a physical a sort of veneer on

612
00:40:42.199 --> 00:40:47.920
<v Speaker 4>it so they don't feel embarrassed. Yeah, I can see.

613
00:40:49.000 --> 00:40:50.679
<v Speaker 1>Did anybody have any questions?

614
00:40:52.320 --> 00:40:55.000
<v Speaker 3>I was wondering on sort of like a nuts and

615
00:40:55.079 --> 00:41:00.960
<v Speaker 3>bolts question of implementing the angels and demons into an

616
00:41:01.119 --> 00:41:09.119
<v Speaker 3>astrological reading. Have you found that it provides nuances or enhancements,

617
00:41:09.239 --> 00:41:14.599
<v Speaker 3>or even maybe might contrary, might provide a contrary reading

618
00:41:14.840 --> 00:41:17.840
<v Speaker 3>in some cases, or can you break down any of that?

619
00:41:19.000 --> 00:41:22.960
<v Speaker 4>Sure? Yeah, so it's pretty much the way that you

620
00:41:23.000 --> 00:41:26.440
<v Speaker 4>would use planets and zions. You could use a planet

621
00:41:26.559 --> 00:41:31.880
<v Speaker 4>in a quinary. So uh, let's say, you know, and

622
00:41:31.920 --> 00:41:35.559
<v Speaker 4>I give many examples in the book, like let's and

623
00:41:35.760 --> 00:41:38.320
<v Speaker 4>you could use it in elections too, like if you

624
00:41:38.440 --> 00:41:42.159
<v Speaker 4>want to want to set a cycle in motion, you

625
00:41:42.199 --> 00:41:45.199
<v Speaker 4>can when you're electing your chart that show you know,

626
00:41:45.440 --> 00:41:48.119
<v Speaker 4>for some point in the future when you want to, say,

627
00:41:48.239 --> 00:41:53.320
<v Speaker 4>consecrate a talisman or pick a herb, you could use

628
00:41:53.800 --> 00:41:59.639
<v Speaker 4>the planets in these specific quinaries because each of them

629
00:42:00.519 --> 00:42:06.199
<v Speaker 4>is ruled or governed by an angel demon pair. There's

630
00:42:06.239 --> 00:42:10.039
<v Speaker 4>an angelic sort of there's the angel that's from the

631
00:42:10.039 --> 00:42:15.239
<v Speaker 4>schemhamphr Ash, and there's the demon that's from the Artiskoesha.

632
00:42:15.679 --> 00:42:18.719
<v Speaker 4>Now here's I should have said this right at the beginning.

633
00:42:19.440 --> 00:42:24.400
<v Speaker 4>The model that I'm working with is your typical pre

634
00:42:24.800 --> 00:42:29.519
<v Speaker 4>Enlightenment model, right, So from antiquity all the way through

635
00:42:29.559 --> 00:42:33.760
<v Speaker 4>the Enlightenment. Of course, that the Enlightenment, which I don't

636
00:42:33.760 --> 00:42:37.079
<v Speaker 4>even like the name of that movement, the Enlightenment was

637
00:42:37.119 --> 00:42:42.159
<v Speaker 4>detrimental to magic and astrology in alchemy because that's where

638
00:42:42.199 --> 00:42:49.480
<v Speaker 4>we veer into atheistic materialism. And that's why, all right,

639
00:42:49.519 --> 00:42:57.440
<v Speaker 4>here's something interesting, that's why that's when astrology becomes esoteric.

640
00:42:57.880 --> 00:43:02.679
<v Speaker 4>That's where alchemy becomes esoteric and where magic becomes esoteric

641
00:43:03.119 --> 00:43:07.719
<v Speaker 4>after the Enlightenment, because they were not esoteric before the Enlightenment.

642
00:43:07.880 --> 00:43:11.119
<v Speaker 4>They were just part of your typical worldview, right, So

643
00:43:11.599 --> 00:43:17.000
<v Speaker 4>once these become rejected sciences, which is what I think

644
00:43:17.599 --> 00:43:23.800
<v Speaker 4>Wuter Honograph talked about the dust bin of rejected sciences,

645
00:43:24.679 --> 00:43:30.159
<v Speaker 4>and that's what you get when after the Enlightenment, because

646
00:43:30.199 --> 00:43:34.679
<v Speaker 4>it's been sort of, you know, a species of positivism

647
00:43:34.800 --> 00:43:40.079
<v Speaker 4>has moved in there and made it so the enchanted

648
00:43:40.159 --> 00:43:44.639
<v Speaker 4>world is finished, you know. So it's for this stuff

649
00:43:44.679 --> 00:43:48.320
<v Speaker 4>you have to have an enchanted worldview in order to

650
00:43:48.840 --> 00:43:51.559
<v Speaker 4>you know, do it in the context of how the

651
00:43:51.639 --> 00:43:54.920
<v Speaker 4>ancients did it. You have to have an enchanted worldview.

652
00:43:55.199 --> 00:43:58.719
<v Speaker 4>If you don't have that, you're you're not you're not

653
00:43:58.840 --> 00:44:02.719
<v Speaker 4>working a metaphysic. You're messing around with some sort of

654
00:44:02.760 --> 00:44:07.679
<v Speaker 4>theoretical physics, physics or some sort of psychology, you know.

655
00:44:08.239 --> 00:44:11.559
<v Speaker 4>But anyway, I was saying that, why was I saying

656
00:44:11.599 --> 00:44:12.599
<v Speaker 4>that you had a question?

657
00:44:14.840 --> 00:44:17.920
<v Speaker 3>Well, I was blown away just now by your piercing

658
00:44:18.320 --> 00:44:23.400
<v Speaker 3>the label of the Enlightenment era and pointing out that

659
00:44:23.400 --> 00:44:26.960
<v Speaker 3>that's actually the beginning of the atheistic materialism.

660
00:44:27.119 --> 00:44:28.880
<v Speaker 6>Bravo, right, great point.

661
00:44:29.360 --> 00:44:33.599
<v Speaker 3>Well, but but I was asking just how.

662
00:44:33.519 --> 00:44:34.480
<v Speaker 4>Including the.

663
00:44:36.519 --> 00:44:43.159
<v Speaker 3>Implementing this aspect of readings or or might even provide

664
00:44:43.199 --> 00:44:47.079
<v Speaker 3>a contrary idea to the established reading that you might.

665
00:44:46.960 --> 00:44:52.559
<v Speaker 4>Get sure exactly. So, yes, it changes things, and it

666
00:44:52.760 --> 00:44:58.639
<v Speaker 4>adds nuanced you know, and ith you know, it could

667
00:44:58.679 --> 00:45:01.599
<v Speaker 4>put a finer point on things. I've never found it

668
00:45:01.639 --> 00:45:07.760
<v Speaker 4>to be contradictory per se. But you know a lot

669
00:45:07.760 --> 00:45:12.719
<v Speaker 4>of this is it's a hermeneutics, right, It's interpreted, so

670
00:45:12.800 --> 00:45:16.840
<v Speaker 4>we have to we have to apply. That's the art

671
00:45:16.880 --> 00:45:17.719
<v Speaker 4>of astrology.

672
00:45:18.400 --> 00:45:18.519
<v Speaker 1>You know.

673
00:45:18.719 --> 00:45:21.199
<v Speaker 4>There's there's the science y sort of stuff, which is

674
00:45:21.239 --> 00:45:24.840
<v Speaker 4>all the math and the cosmological stuff. But the art

675
00:45:24.960 --> 00:45:28.280
<v Speaker 4>of astrology, which I think of astrology as primarily being

676
00:45:28.320 --> 00:45:33.039
<v Speaker 4>an art. The art of astrology is the interpretation, you know,

677
00:45:33.639 --> 00:45:37.400
<v Speaker 4>like a planet in a sign in a house and

678
00:45:37.440 --> 00:45:41.360
<v Speaker 4>how it is aspected by other planets so or yeah,

679
00:45:41.760 --> 00:45:47.000
<v Speaker 4>so yeah, the couineries kind of change that or they

680
00:45:47.239 --> 00:45:50.400
<v Speaker 4>accentuate that on a finer point because you're dealing with

681
00:45:50.440 --> 00:45:55.199
<v Speaker 4>a smaller arc segment. But here's one thing that might

682
00:45:55.239 --> 00:45:59.800
<v Speaker 4>be helpful to your listeners is astrology has become something

683
00:46:00.079 --> 00:46:04.480
<v Speaker 4>really gross it's like a hippified New Age kind of

684
00:46:04.559 --> 00:46:08.639
<v Speaker 4>fluff that's always positive and everything's an opportunity. You know.

685
00:46:09.039 --> 00:46:13.800
<v Speaker 4>That's twentieth century posts theosophical astrology, which I think is garbage.

686
00:46:15.079 --> 00:46:18.119
<v Speaker 4>The astrology of the last one hundred or two years

687
00:46:18.840 --> 00:46:24.880
<v Speaker 4>is primarily trash, and it's based on like what they

688
00:46:24.920 --> 00:46:29.480
<v Speaker 4>call the twelve letter twelve letter model or something I forget,

689
00:46:29.519 --> 00:46:34.480
<v Speaker 4>twelve letter alphabet or something where it's like they they

690
00:46:35.000 --> 00:46:38.760
<v Speaker 4>have such a misunderstanding that they could say that Mars

691
00:46:38.960 --> 00:46:44.440
<v Speaker 4>equals Areas equals the first house, you know, like and

692
00:46:44.760 --> 00:46:49.840
<v Speaker 4>do all their delineations based on this, you know, super simplistic,

693
00:46:50.320 --> 00:46:57.840
<v Speaker 4>overly simplified perspective, right whereas you know you want to

694
00:46:57.840 --> 00:47:01.280
<v Speaker 4>think of it. The best way to explain it is

695
00:47:01.320 --> 00:47:08.280
<v Speaker 4>the theater analogy. Anybody familiar with the theater analogy in astrology,

696
00:47:09.000 --> 00:47:09.519
<v Speaker 4>I'll tell you.

697
00:47:09.480 --> 00:47:10.320
<v Speaker 6>What it is.

698
00:47:10.679 --> 00:47:20.760
<v Speaker 4>It's it's it's planets in signs, in houses, and having

699
00:47:22.199 --> 00:47:27.400
<v Speaker 4>aspects with each other. The four you know, planets, signs, houses,

700
00:47:27.400 --> 00:47:31.840
<v Speaker 4>and aspects, the four major elements of astrology. Planets are

701
00:47:31.920 --> 00:47:35.559
<v Speaker 4>in science, they're in houses, and they aspect each other.

702
00:47:36.000 --> 00:47:40.239
<v Speaker 4>Is the same as an actor in wardrobe on a

703
00:47:40.400 --> 00:47:44.079
<v Speaker 4>set and having dialogue. Is that's it's kind of one

704
00:47:44.119 --> 00:47:50.199
<v Speaker 4>for one. The actor has wordrobon and they're on a

705
00:47:50.360 --> 00:47:53.360
<v Speaker 4>set or in a certain place on the stage, and

706
00:47:53.360 --> 00:47:57.079
<v Speaker 4>they're having dialogue with other actors. Right, that's the same

707
00:47:57.239 --> 00:48:03.280
<v Speaker 4>as a planet in a sign in a house and

708
00:48:03.320 --> 00:48:07.039
<v Speaker 4>having aspects with each other. So it's kind of it's

709
00:48:07.079 --> 00:48:11.000
<v Speaker 4>a good analogy to use because imagine, you know, imagine

710
00:48:11.039 --> 00:48:14.639
<v Speaker 4>the actor he or she puts on a wardrobe and

711
00:48:14.679 --> 00:48:21.079
<v Speaker 4>that sort of changes or colorizes their natural planetary expression,

712
00:48:22.480 --> 00:48:25.800
<v Speaker 4>and then they're they're on a set like say you've

713
00:48:25.800 --> 00:48:28.840
<v Speaker 4>got a kitchenett over here and a couch and a

714
00:48:28.880 --> 00:48:32.440
<v Speaker 4>writing desk. You know that the actor could be at

715
00:48:32.440 --> 00:48:36.960
<v Speaker 4>any number of those houses or sets, and then they

716
00:48:37.000 --> 00:48:42.800
<v Speaker 4>have aspects the planet's aspect and the actors have dialogue.

717
00:48:42.880 --> 00:48:45.960
<v Speaker 4>So it's I don't know if I did a great

718
00:48:46.039 --> 00:48:49.119
<v Speaker 4>job of explaining that, but it's called the theater analogy.

719
00:48:49.159 --> 00:48:50.159
<v Speaker 4>Did that make sense?

720
00:48:50.679 --> 00:48:54.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? Yeah, yeah it maybe me. Think about God, I

721
00:48:54.960 --> 00:48:58.400
<v Speaker 1>forgot what they were called. I think didn't Crowley do

722
00:48:58.960 --> 00:49:01.199
<v Speaker 1>some stuff on like these like drawn out plays that

723
00:49:01.280 --> 00:49:02.840
<v Speaker 1>are kind of on planetary energies.

724
00:49:03.960 --> 00:49:06.719
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, he had the rights of a lusis and all

725
00:49:06.719 --> 00:49:09.159
<v Speaker 4>of them they had very they had very little to

726
00:49:09.239 --> 00:49:12.840
<v Speaker 4>do with the leuses. There were more like his, his

727
00:49:12.840 --> 00:49:15.719
<v Speaker 4>his sort of invention, and he hit. He did it

728
00:49:15.719 --> 00:49:17.760
<v Speaker 4>for each of the planets. I've seen the right of

729
00:49:17.800 --> 00:49:19.920
<v Speaker 4>Mars in Santa Fe one time.

730
00:49:21.480 --> 00:49:26.760
<v Speaker 1>Ice. That's cool. Uh, anybody else want to ask?

731
00:49:27.000 --> 00:49:29.480
<v Speaker 4>Now? Is it? Let me ask?

732
00:49:29.679 --> 00:49:29.960
<v Speaker 1>Is this?

733
00:49:30.239 --> 00:49:35.599
<v Speaker 4>I'm really trying to make sense and trying to be clear,

734
00:49:36.039 --> 00:49:38.079
<v Speaker 4>but I have I got to tell you, it's really

735
00:49:38.119 --> 00:49:41.599
<v Speaker 4>difficult to do to be clear when you're talking about

736
00:49:41.599 --> 00:49:45.199
<v Speaker 4>this stuff that's kind of abstruse. It's kind of specialized.

737
00:49:45.960 --> 00:49:49.920
<v Speaker 4>Like I could tell you that my book, The Astrological Goesha,

738
00:49:50.320 --> 00:49:53.920
<v Speaker 4>I do a full on astrological orientation. I do a

739
00:49:54.000 --> 00:49:58.920
<v Speaker 4>Kabbalistic orientation. I talk about magic and and really build

740
00:49:58.960 --> 00:50:01.800
<v Speaker 4>it up from zero. You don't have to know anything

741
00:50:03.199 --> 00:50:06.559
<v Speaker 4>to get something out of this book because I kind

742
00:50:06.599 --> 00:50:09.480
<v Speaker 4>of go through all that. While while I don't have

743
00:50:09.639 --> 00:50:14.159
<v Speaker 4>the time or space to really build up, uh, the

744
00:50:14.760 --> 00:50:18.840
<v Speaker 4>entirety of an astrological worldview, I do enough to where

745
00:50:18.840 --> 00:50:22.159
<v Speaker 4>you could read the book and it makes sense. Obviously

746
00:50:22.599 --> 00:50:26.239
<v Speaker 4>you could probably tell I'm pretty opinionated about this stuff,

747
00:50:26.960 --> 00:50:30.079
<v Speaker 4>and I think that's probably unattractive as well.

748
00:50:30.639 --> 00:50:34.960
<v Speaker 1>But I'm just making a claim, right.

749
00:50:37.440 --> 00:50:42.360
<v Speaker 6>Basics then, right, m hmm. You just they said, well

750
00:50:42.440 --> 00:50:43.400
<v Speaker 6>stick to the basics.

751
00:50:43.400 --> 00:50:46.079
<v Speaker 7>You stick to the basics in your first and in

752
00:50:46.119 --> 00:50:49.239
<v Speaker 7>which book that you say, like the foundations, like what

753
00:50:49.400 --> 00:50:51.559
<v Speaker 7>the basics is of it?

754
00:50:52.760 --> 00:50:57.159
<v Speaker 4>Yeah? Yeah, And I really tried to have out of

755
00:50:57.199 --> 00:50:59.679
<v Speaker 4>all my books, this has this one. I have the

756
00:50:59.719 --> 00:51:03.039
<v Speaker 4>best voice. I really worked on my voice for this,

757
00:51:03.239 --> 00:51:10.679
<v Speaker 4>my literature voice, right, Like, I'm very clear. I try

758
00:51:10.679 --> 00:51:14.000
<v Speaker 4>to be transparent, you know. I just talk about the

759
00:51:14.119 --> 00:51:16.480
<v Speaker 4>ideas and I try and do it in a way

760
00:51:16.280 --> 00:51:22.760
<v Speaker 4>that is accessible. So whereas in some of my Masonic books,

761
00:51:22.800 --> 00:51:26.159
<v Speaker 4>I was very cruel to the reader. You know. I

762
00:51:26.320 --> 00:51:30.199
<v Speaker 4>used a lot of you know, fifty dollars words, and

763
00:51:30.400 --> 00:51:33.880
<v Speaker 4>they were the right words. They were the specialized word

764
00:51:33.960 --> 00:51:37.880
<v Speaker 4>for what I was talking about. But nobody knows that stuff.

765
00:51:38.679 --> 00:51:40.800
<v Speaker 1>No, I hear what you're saying. Yeah, I get what

766
00:51:40.840 --> 00:51:41.280
<v Speaker 1>you're saying.

767
00:51:43.559 --> 00:51:48.039
<v Speaker 3>You're mentioning Jamie about I don't want to put the

768
00:51:48.159 --> 00:51:51.480
<v Speaker 3>term in there, but just the overall dilution of astrology

769
00:51:51.559 --> 00:51:54.239
<v Speaker 3>in the last one hundred and two hundred years. I

770
00:51:54.320 --> 00:51:59.320
<v Speaker 3>wonder what your contemporaries in the Masonic organizations, what they

771
00:51:59.360 --> 00:52:03.760
<v Speaker 3>felt about astrology and total or maybe that they had

772
00:52:03.800 --> 00:52:06.000
<v Speaker 3>some insights about it that were contrary.

773
00:52:07.400 --> 00:52:13.000
<v Speaker 4>Most Masons don't know anything about astrology, you know, so

774
00:52:13.800 --> 00:52:16.840
<v Speaker 4>good or bad, modern or traditional.

775
00:52:17.159 --> 00:52:21.239
<v Speaker 3>Most they weren't necessarily against it because it was hippie fied.

776
00:52:23.679 --> 00:52:27.559
<v Speaker 4>I think that wasn't even you know, an issue that

777
00:52:27.719 --> 00:52:36.039
<v Speaker 4>was raised. They were, if anything, right, Well, here's what

778
00:52:36.119 --> 00:52:40.840
<v Speaker 4>Masons are interested in. They're interested in the cosmological symbolism

779
00:52:41.280 --> 00:52:45.840
<v Speaker 4>and the sort of precessional symbolism that's different than the astrology.

780
00:52:45.880 --> 00:52:48.880
<v Speaker 4>They're more into the cosmological stuff, and they are into

781
00:52:48.920 --> 00:52:57.519
<v Speaker 4>this cosmological particularly precessional symbolism is rampant in Masonic ritual

782
00:52:57.679 --> 00:53:01.480
<v Speaker 4>and art. You know what I mean by that is

783
00:53:02.199 --> 00:53:07.320
<v Speaker 4>Freemasonry's Anto Lucas. The year of light is four thousand BCE.

784
00:53:08.280 --> 00:53:11.599
<v Speaker 4>That's so now we're in the masonically, we're in the

785
00:53:11.719 --> 00:53:16.920
<v Speaker 4>year sixty twenty eight Anna Lucas. That's when you see

786
00:53:16.960 --> 00:53:20.840
<v Speaker 4>a Masonic document or a cornerstone, they typically give the

787
00:53:21.079 --> 00:53:24.159
<v Speaker 4>anti Lucas and this year they would say sixty twenty

788
00:53:24.599 --> 00:53:29.559
<v Speaker 4>or I'm sorry, sixty twenty what a wait at five? Yeah,

789
00:53:29.639 --> 00:53:33.840
<v Speaker 4>sixty twenty five Because you're just adding four thousand to

790
00:53:33.880 --> 00:53:37.360
<v Speaker 4>this date. So if you go back to that first

791
00:53:37.440 --> 00:53:42.159
<v Speaker 4>year of Anti Lucas, it's four thousand BCE, which means

792
00:53:42.480 --> 00:53:46.559
<v Speaker 4>you're in the Torrean precessional age. That means Taurus is

793
00:53:46.639 --> 00:53:54.119
<v Speaker 4>rising on the eastern horizon at the vernal equinox, you know,

794
00:53:54.199 --> 00:53:58.719
<v Speaker 4>the spring equinox, the traditional beginning of the year. That's

795
00:53:58.800 --> 00:54:04.840
<v Speaker 4>where the sun was rising in Taurus equinoctially at that time.

796
00:54:05.440 --> 00:54:10.679
<v Speaker 4>So their symbolism supporting that in masonry, you know, and

797
00:54:10.719 --> 00:54:14.639
<v Speaker 4>it's very like it's definitely there, you know, I'm not

798
00:54:14.920 --> 00:54:18.320
<v Speaker 4>just kind of trying to find it, you know, and

799
00:54:18.320 --> 00:54:22.559
<v Speaker 4>and you know, accentuate it because it's already it's already there.

800
00:54:22.639 --> 00:54:26.360
<v Speaker 4>I mean they use the tetramorph the lion, the bull,

801
00:54:26.920 --> 00:54:29.800
<v Speaker 4>the man, and the eagle, you know, for the four

802
00:54:29.920 --> 00:54:32.880
<v Speaker 4>fixed signs, and that's part of the symbolism, and not

803
00:54:33.000 --> 00:54:38.960
<v Speaker 4>just in masonry, but in Christianity in a lot of traditions.

804
00:54:38.599 --> 00:54:43.639
<v Speaker 1>I think I've even seen that on two all the

805
00:54:43.679 --> 00:54:44.079
<v Speaker 1>time too.

806
00:54:44.559 --> 00:54:46.840
<v Speaker 4>Oh it's yeah. In the World card they're up in

807
00:54:46.880 --> 00:54:51.159
<v Speaker 4>the corners. M hm.

808
00:54:52.239 --> 00:54:55.119
<v Speaker 1>When it comes to well, uh, do you practice sole

809
00:54:55.159 --> 00:54:56.000
<v Speaker 1>amount of magic?

810
00:54:56.360 --> 00:54:56.639
<v Speaker 4>Then?

811
00:54:57.280 --> 00:54:58.880
<v Speaker 1>Are you you know, how do you view that?

812
00:55:00.400 --> 00:55:05.840
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean I've I've done some of those operations,

813
00:55:07.159 --> 00:55:08.960
<v Speaker 4>but well.

814
00:55:08.840 --> 00:55:11.000
<v Speaker 1>I would assume, like, is that how you go about

815
00:55:11.079 --> 00:55:14.960
<v Speaker 1>with the You're working with the Gaisia just through sol amount.

816
00:55:14.719 --> 00:55:21.000
<v Speaker 4>Of Well, so I don't work it exactly the way

817
00:55:21.039 --> 00:55:26.159
<v Speaker 4>it is in the Goieshia, because my focus is more

818
00:55:27.320 --> 00:55:33.480
<v Speaker 4>Greco Egyptian magic and like you would find in the PGM,

819
00:55:33.920 --> 00:55:38.519
<v Speaker 4>but also medieval Perso Arabic magic. I like, that's my

820
00:55:38.639 --> 00:55:43.960
<v Speaker 4>favorite stuff, is the hermetic magic of antiquity and the

821
00:55:44.800 --> 00:55:50.159
<v Speaker 4>hermetic magic of the Islamic Golden Age. Basically when you

822
00:55:50.239 --> 00:55:55.239
<v Speaker 4>had when you had actually the last holdout of the

823
00:55:55.280 --> 00:55:58.239
<v Speaker 4>antique hermatists was in I want to say, the year

824
00:55:58.480 --> 00:56:01.880
<v Speaker 4>six hundred or nine hundred. Right in there somewhere you

825
00:56:01.960 --> 00:56:04.119
<v Speaker 4>had what they what they were known as, was the

826
00:56:04.280 --> 00:56:09.159
<v Speaker 4>Sabians of Heran, the Sabians of Haran. Iran is this

827
00:56:09.239 --> 00:56:13.000
<v Speaker 4>place that's in eastern Turkey. That was the last place

828
00:56:13.480 --> 00:56:18.480
<v Speaker 4>where you had Hermetic paganism. That was an unbroken chain,

829
00:56:19.480 --> 00:56:25.199
<v Speaker 4>unbroken chain stretching from Hermi's trist Ma Justice through like

830
00:56:25.280 --> 00:56:30.199
<v Speaker 4>the Neoplatonists, et cetera, through the Hermetists and all the

831
00:56:30.199 --> 00:56:34.119
<v Speaker 4>way up to the Sabians of Heran in an unbroken transmission.

832
00:56:34.719 --> 00:56:38.639
<v Speaker 4>And that's what we call hermetism. That's antique hermatism, which

833
00:56:38.719 --> 00:56:41.639
<v Speaker 4>is the you know, the doctrines of Hermis trist Ma justice.

834
00:56:42.519 --> 00:56:47.119
<v Speaker 4>But the way you get hermeticism, her Meticism is different

835
00:56:47.159 --> 00:56:53.039
<v Speaker 4>than hermatism is after the fall of the Byzantine. So

836
00:56:53.760 --> 00:56:57.880
<v Speaker 4>the Sabians of Heran got snuffed out and there goes

837
00:56:57.920 --> 00:57:00.960
<v Speaker 4>the last of antique hermatism, and it was it was

838
00:57:01.159 --> 00:57:06.360
<v Speaker 4>totally defunct for for let me see how many years,

839
00:57:06.599 --> 00:57:11.320
<v Speaker 4>about eight hundred seven or eight hundred years, and then

840
00:57:11.840 --> 00:57:14.800
<v Speaker 4>the fall of the Byzantine happens, and then all that

841
00:57:14.840 --> 00:57:20.880
<v Speaker 4>Platonic and Hermetic literature comes to the the court to

842
00:57:21.000 --> 00:57:26.480
<v Speaker 4>Medici where you where Marsilio Ficino starts to translate that stuff.

843
00:57:26.880 --> 00:57:31.360
<v Speaker 4>And this this sparks a new Hermetic revival, and that

844
00:57:31.480 --> 00:57:35.559
<v Speaker 4>in turn sparks the Renaissance. You wouldn't get a Renaissance

845
00:57:35.599 --> 00:57:39.000
<v Speaker 4>without the Hermetic revival in Florence.

846
00:57:40.440 --> 00:57:43.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, the Medici's paid a fina to do that. Well,

847
00:57:43.360 --> 00:57:47.639
<v Speaker 1>they paid Yeah, Yeah, he did Platos right, I think

848
00:57:47.679 --> 00:57:50.400
<v Speaker 1>he did both of the Indians. No, did he translate

849
00:57:50.440 --> 00:57:51.199
<v Speaker 1>any Yeah.

850
00:57:51.039 --> 00:57:54.679
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I think he did some platonis. He definitely did

851
00:57:55.559 --> 00:57:59.519
<v Speaker 4>the Hermetic corpus. I mean maybe even the Discourse on

852
00:57:59.599 --> 00:58:01.800
<v Speaker 4>the eighth and ninth, but I know he did the court.

853
00:58:01.880 --> 00:58:04.559
<v Speaker 4>What we realized, what we tend to refer to as

854
00:58:04.599 --> 00:58:09.800
<v Speaker 4>the Corpus hermeticum is those seventeen books, the seventeen books

855
00:58:09.800 --> 00:58:13.840
<v Speaker 4>of the Hermetic corpus, the popular ones that you get,

856
00:58:15.119 --> 00:58:19.440
<v Speaker 4>they're typically together, you know, there's like seventeen books and

857
00:58:20.719 --> 00:58:25.679
<v Speaker 4>Marsilio Ficino translated those, and that was just blowing everybody's mind.

858
00:58:26.039 --> 00:58:28.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, like I had a huge impact.

859
00:58:28.360 --> 00:58:31.880
<v Speaker 4>I think, yeah, well he started I mean you could

860
00:58:31.920 --> 00:58:37.400
<v Speaker 4>say he started the Renaissance, so that's kind of a yeah,

861
00:58:37.519 --> 00:58:39.559
<v Speaker 4>kind of an impact.

862
00:58:40.599 --> 00:58:43.440
<v Speaker 1>Uh oh, yeah, that was interesting, all right. I was

863
00:58:43.480 --> 00:58:46.159
<v Speaker 1>just wondering if because then that we get into the

864
00:58:46.239 --> 00:58:48.639
<v Speaker 1>whole thing, like, you know, depending if you're doing I guess,

865
00:58:48.639 --> 00:58:51.039
<v Speaker 1>you know, the psalomonic I was gonna like, are you

866
00:58:51.199 --> 00:58:54.519
<v Speaker 1>actually you know, getting the triangle? Do you think you're actually.

867
00:58:54.400 --> 00:58:56.920
<v Speaker 4>Oh, yeah, you know, I don't have the gear, but

868
00:58:57.000 --> 00:59:02.199
<v Speaker 4>I've done goetic operations typically, you know, I've used taro

869
00:59:02.360 --> 00:59:04.639
<v Speaker 4>to do that, because if you have a tarot deck,

870
00:59:05.079 --> 00:59:10.079
<v Speaker 4>you can make a temple. A temple is a cosmological structure, right.

871
00:59:10.199 --> 00:59:13.840
<v Speaker 4>A temple is you have the altar as an axis MOUNDI,

872
00:59:14.440 --> 00:59:18.400
<v Speaker 4>and you have directionality from there, the cardinal directions, and

873
00:59:18.800 --> 00:59:22.840
<v Speaker 4>you're basically, well, that's what theurgy is. It's a demiurgy

874
00:59:23.440 --> 00:59:28.519
<v Speaker 4>that we participate with God. It's it's a theurgy is

875
00:59:29.280 --> 00:59:33.760
<v Speaker 4>working with God or working as God. So you're creating

876
00:59:33.800 --> 00:59:37.360
<v Speaker 4>a cosmos. And if you're creating a cosmos, that's that's

877
00:59:37.400 --> 00:59:45.159
<v Speaker 4>a demiurgy, right, And that's that's why Eomboloicus called magic

878
00:59:45.840 --> 00:59:52.760
<v Speaker 4>or theurgy microcosmogenesis. You said, creating a little world microcosmogenesis.

879
00:59:53.519 --> 00:59:57.320
<v Speaker 4>So every time you do a magical operation, you're basically

880
00:59:57.440 --> 00:59:59.960
<v Speaker 4>you know, if you're doing like you're banishing ritual or

881
01:00:00.039 --> 01:00:04.320
<v Speaker 4>whatever you do, you're essentially making a cosmos. Uh and

882
01:00:04.400 --> 01:00:10.519
<v Speaker 4>an axis moondy. I bring that up because because tarot

883
01:00:10.559 --> 01:00:16.880
<v Speaker 4>cards have a cosmological aspect to them. You know where

884
01:00:17.679 --> 01:00:20.800
<v Speaker 4>if you take the pip cards, there's thirty there's thirty

885
01:00:20.880 --> 01:00:25.719
<v Speaker 4>six pip cards and those correspond to the decans or faces.

886
01:00:26.079 --> 01:00:31.679
<v Speaker 4>The thirty six faces, thirty six decans. The you have

887
01:00:31.800 --> 01:00:35.519
<v Speaker 4>all the planets in there. You know, the planets. You

888
01:00:35.559 --> 01:00:38.079
<v Speaker 4>have the you have the Moon with the High Priestess,

889
01:00:38.559 --> 01:00:43.199
<v Speaker 4>you have Mercury with the Magis or the Magician and

890
01:00:43.280 --> 01:00:46.199
<v Speaker 4>so forth. You have the seven visible planets, you have

891
01:00:46.280 --> 01:00:52.280
<v Speaker 4>all the zodiacal signs, like like the Emperor is Ares. Yeah,

892
01:00:52.320 --> 01:00:57.760
<v Speaker 4>and you have three of the elements. So yeah, so

893
01:00:57.840 --> 01:01:02.199
<v Speaker 4>you're basically you can use tarot deck to make a

894
01:01:02.239 --> 01:01:05.800
<v Speaker 4>working space. And I've done a lot of that, you know,

895
01:01:06.159 --> 01:01:08.320
<v Speaker 4>in the absence of getting all the gear.

896
01:01:09.599 --> 01:01:14.719
<v Speaker 1>I've used tarot Tarot cards almost kind of like talismans

897
01:01:15.400 --> 01:01:19.280
<v Speaker 1>to try to get to try to use them to

898
01:01:19.280 --> 01:01:22.039
<v Speaker 1>to kind of represent what I'm trying to get out,

899
01:01:22.079 --> 01:01:26.400
<v Speaker 1>Like like I use more than one card sometimes, yeah, sure,

900
01:01:27.239 --> 01:01:30.320
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, like again like you were even saying, I

901
01:01:30.360 --> 01:01:32.599
<v Speaker 1>would use it even for the attributions on the card

902
01:01:33.159 --> 01:01:33.840
<v Speaker 1>too as well.

903
01:01:35.679 --> 01:01:38.920
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and I use g D attributions. There's a lot

904
01:01:38.960 --> 01:01:44.639
<v Speaker 4>of different method There's the continental or French correspondences to

905
01:01:44.679 --> 01:01:50.639
<v Speaker 4>the tarot, which Eliphis Levy used. Valentine Tomberg, who wrote

906
01:01:50.719 --> 01:01:55.519
<v Speaker 4>Meditations on the Tarot, he used those. Yeah, a lot

907
01:01:55.519 --> 01:01:59.920
<v Speaker 4>of people have all those French Martinists and rescreations, they

908
01:02:00.119 --> 01:02:06.880
<v Speaker 4>used continental attributions. I prefer the Golden Dawn attributions from

909
01:02:06.960 --> 01:02:14.360
<v Speaker 4>the Cipher manuscript the original ciphers, right, yeah. Yeah. In fact,

910
01:02:14.440 --> 01:02:18.039
<v Speaker 4>one of the chiefs of our Golden Dawn Order did

911
01:02:18.119 --> 01:02:24.719
<v Speaker 4>the the totally exhaustive and definitive version of the the

912
01:02:24.760 --> 01:02:28.320
<v Speaker 4>Cyber Manuscripts and published it a number of years ago.

913
01:02:28.960 --> 01:02:32.000
<v Speaker 4>And it goes out of print sometimes and it's like

914
01:02:32.599 --> 01:02:36.440
<v Speaker 4>three hundred bucks for you know, one hundred and twenty

915
01:02:36.480 --> 01:02:44.599
<v Speaker 4>page paperback. I forgot. I was lucky I got. I

916
01:02:44.599 --> 01:02:50.440
<v Speaker 4>got it when it was like nineteen bucks or something. Yeah.

917
01:02:50.440 --> 01:02:51.639
<v Speaker 1>I feel like a lot of orders have them.

918
01:02:51.760 --> 01:02:54.199
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, those Cipher manuscripts is where we get.

919
01:02:56.920 --> 01:03:01.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, like even the oto basically suffering that's cipher and

920
01:03:01.599 --> 01:03:02.800
<v Speaker 1>then technically.

921
01:03:02.400 --> 01:03:08.360
<v Speaker 4>Right, yeah and O t o. So Crowley built upon

922
01:03:08.480 --> 01:03:13.320
<v Speaker 4>the Golden Dawn correspondences, except he changed some things. He

923
01:03:13.480 --> 01:03:18.239
<v Speaker 4>changed like Zody, he moved it. He switched Zadi with

924
01:03:18.519 --> 01:03:21.920
<v Speaker 4>I think the Emperor, and he switched those Remember how

925
01:03:21.920 --> 01:03:25.119
<v Speaker 4>he says in the in the the what do you

926
01:03:25.159 --> 01:03:27.039
<v Speaker 4>call it, the little Red Book that you get the

927
01:03:27.079 --> 01:03:29.400
<v Speaker 4>Book of the Law. In the Book of the Law,

928
01:03:29.840 --> 01:03:34.639
<v Speaker 4>he said, he said, Zadi is not the star. So

929
01:03:34.719 --> 01:03:39.400
<v Speaker 4>he switched it with the Hermit or the rather the

930
01:03:39.400 --> 01:03:45.639
<v Speaker 4>the what do you call him? The Emperor? Yeah, so

931
01:03:46.079 --> 01:03:48.800
<v Speaker 4>I don't like that. I don't like that correspondence. I

932
01:03:48.880 --> 01:03:52.320
<v Speaker 4>like the Golden Dawn one. But uh, but if you're

933
01:03:52.400 --> 01:03:59.679
<v Speaker 4>ot O, you end up, you know, sometimes using that switch, you.

934
01:03:59.719 --> 01:04:01.440
<v Speaker 1>Know, and know like in the Tarot that he switches

935
01:04:01.440 --> 01:04:02.199
<v Speaker 1>a few things too.

936
01:04:03.280 --> 01:04:10.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, well the Golden Dawn switched the uh the

937
01:04:10.480 --> 01:04:17.559
<v Speaker 4>strength and uh which one was it? Strength? And I think, uh.

938
01:04:19.119 --> 01:04:23.559
<v Speaker 1>Justice, yes, yeah. Yeah. Well one thing real quick, since

939
01:04:23.559 --> 01:04:25.519
<v Speaker 1>I have you on the show, is somebody who's affiliated

940
01:04:25.519 --> 01:04:29.559
<v Speaker 1>with the Golden doing did Alas and Croley? Right, the

941
01:04:29.559 --> 01:04:33.239
<v Speaker 1>Pentagram and the Hexagram rituals? No, he did not know

942
01:04:33.840 --> 01:04:35.760
<v Speaker 1>so many people think like he did, like every all

943
01:04:35.840 --> 01:04:36.760
<v Speaker 1>those rituals he wrote.

944
01:04:38.199 --> 01:04:40.719
<v Speaker 4>You know, here's something interesting about that. A lot of

945
01:04:40.719 --> 01:04:43.400
<v Speaker 4>people say, a lot of people just refer to it

946
01:04:43.440 --> 01:04:48.880
<v Speaker 4>as the Lesser Banishing Ye did they call it the

947
01:04:49.039 --> 01:04:51.400
<v Speaker 4>lb r P as if that's the only mode of

948
01:04:51.400 --> 01:04:56.800
<v Speaker 4>that ritual it's in the Golden Dawn. They called it

949
01:04:56.880 --> 01:05:00.599
<v Speaker 4>the lesser Ritual of the Pentagram. And you had invoking

950
01:05:00.639 --> 01:05:05.280
<v Speaker 4>and vanishing modes, you had all the elemental modes, including

951
01:05:05.920 --> 01:05:10.480
<v Speaker 4>ether or spirit. So there's actually ten there's ten different

952
01:05:10.519 --> 01:05:14.280
<v Speaker 4>modes of that lesser ritual of the pentagram, depending on

953
01:05:14.320 --> 01:05:15.679
<v Speaker 4>what you want to do. What if you want to

954
01:05:16.159 --> 01:05:18.920
<v Speaker 4>what if you're taking a test, like you have to

955
01:05:18.960 --> 01:05:24.159
<v Speaker 4>take a test, I would do an invoking air ritual.

956
01:05:24.559 --> 01:05:27.599
<v Speaker 4>So instead of doing that earth pentagram that people do,

957
01:05:27.760 --> 01:05:30.920
<v Speaker 4>the vanishing earth pentagram, I would do an invoking air

958
01:05:31.079 --> 01:05:35.760
<v Speaker 4>pentagram because you're invoking the intellect, you know. So it's

959
01:05:35.760 --> 01:05:41.760
<v Speaker 4>actually it's actually quite quite a quite a nice ritual.

960
01:05:41.800 --> 01:05:44.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, for a while, I actually enjoyed that.

961
01:05:45.159 --> 01:05:51.199
<v Speaker 4>Yeah mm, very useful, very simple and pragmatic.

962
01:05:51.639 --> 01:05:54.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, oh no, I get what you're saying.

963
01:05:56.119 --> 01:05:56.559
<v Speaker 1>That's cool.

964
01:05:57.800 --> 01:06:00.719
<v Speaker 5>I'd ask one I hate to portray things, but could

965
01:06:00.719 --> 01:06:05.400
<v Speaker 5>I ask one more romant question. So within the lodge,

966
01:06:05.960 --> 01:06:09.280
<v Speaker 5>can you maybe speculate for a moment, because when you

967
01:06:09.320 --> 01:06:11.880
<v Speaker 5>said the lodge could be kind of constructed with the

968
01:06:11.920 --> 01:06:17.920
<v Speaker 5>major trump cards as how I interpreted it, I was curious, then,

969
01:06:18.480 --> 01:06:22.320
<v Speaker 5>do you think that the movements of the officers within

970
01:06:22.920 --> 01:06:27.760
<v Speaker 5>during a lodge ceremony is that somehow analogous to like

971
01:06:27.800 --> 01:06:29.840
<v Speaker 5>the movement of planets and things. Because I've kind of

972
01:06:29.840 --> 01:06:31.920
<v Speaker 5>wondered this in my own mind.

973
01:06:32.679 --> 01:06:38.360
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, there's what they call circumambulation, and it is. Yeah,

974
01:06:38.480 --> 01:06:42.440
<v Speaker 4>some of that can be seen as cosmic, you know,

975
01:06:42.639 --> 01:06:48.880
<v Speaker 4>like particularly the circumambulations of the candidate during the third degree.

976
01:06:49.320 --> 01:06:53.519
<v Speaker 4>The third degree has particular movements, some of which are

977
01:06:54.239 --> 01:07:00.920
<v Speaker 4>are like you go into the underworld and and you

978
01:07:01.039 --> 01:07:06.840
<v Speaker 4>have in fact, you have the senior deacon who conducts

979
01:07:06.920 --> 01:07:13.239
<v Speaker 4>the candidate, and the senior deacon is mercurial, so he's

980
01:07:13.360 --> 01:07:21.559
<v Speaker 4>like the mercurial sort of exemplar, and that's one of

981
01:07:21.599 --> 01:07:27.440
<v Speaker 4>the hermetic points in the craft of freemasonry out of many, right,

982
01:07:27.519 --> 01:07:33.239
<v Speaker 4>But because you know how mercury, Mercury guides the sun

983
01:07:33.320 --> 01:07:39.119
<v Speaker 4>into the underworld, Mercury and Venus are always within twenty

984
01:07:39.159 --> 01:07:43.559
<v Speaker 4>seven and forty eight degrees of the sun, respectively. Mercury

985
01:07:43.639 --> 01:07:47.519
<v Speaker 4>is always within twenty seven degrees and Venus is always

986
01:07:47.719 --> 01:07:53.119
<v Speaker 4>within forty eight degrees of the sun. So when you

987
01:07:53.159 --> 01:07:58.039
<v Speaker 4>get that primary motion they call it rising in the east,

988
01:07:58.159 --> 01:08:00.960
<v Speaker 4>setting in the west, call me in the south, and

989
01:08:01.079 --> 01:08:06.000
<v Speaker 4>setting it in the west, you'll find that mercury is

990
01:08:06.119 --> 01:08:11.280
<v Speaker 4>the conductor of the sun. So that particular circumambulation has

991
01:08:11.360 --> 01:08:18.920
<v Speaker 4>a pretty concrete planetary interpretation, But there are others, Yeah, that.

992
01:08:19.000 --> 01:08:20.399
<v Speaker 5>Was lovely, Thank you so much.

993
01:08:20.840 --> 01:08:21.039
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

994
01:08:21.479 --> 01:08:26.159
<v Speaker 1>Thanks. Uh oh no, it's it's back again and some

995
01:08:26.239 --> 01:08:28.760
<v Speaker 1>other noise now too, so we'll probably just wrap it up.

996
01:08:29.359 --> 01:08:33.319
<v Speaker 1>Oh it's good enough anyway. Uh yeah, uh yeah, I
