  • Deus Ex Machina? Witchcraft and the Techno-World Venetia Robertson
    Deus Ex Machina? Witchcraft and the Techno-World Venetia Robertson Introduction Sociologist Bryan R. Wilson once alleged that post-modern technology and secularisation are the allied forces of rationality and disenchantment that pose an immense threat to traditional religion.1 However, the flexibility of pastiche Neopagan belief systems like ‘Witchcraft’ have creativity, fantasy, and innovation at their core, allowing practitioners of Witchcraft to respond in a unique way to the post-modern age by integrating technology into their perception of the sacred. The phrase Deus ex Machina, the God out of the Machine, has gained a multiplicity of meanings in this context. For progressive Witches, the machine can both possess its own numen and act as a conduit for the spirit of the deities. It can also assist the practitioner in becoming one with the divine by enabling a transcendent and enlightening spiritual experience. Finally, in the theatrical sense, it could be argued that the concept of a magical machine is in fact the contrived dénouement that saves the seemingly despondent situation of a so-called ‘nature religion’ like Witchcraft in the techno-centric age. This paper explores the ways two movements within Witchcraft, ‘Technopaganism’ and ‘Technomysticism’, have incorporated man-made inventions into their spiritual practice. A study of how this is related to the worldview, operation of magic, social aspect and development of self within Witchcraft, uncovers some of the issues of longevity and profundity that this religion will face in the future. Witchcraft as a Religion The categorical heading ‘Neopagan’ functions as an umbrella that covers numerous reconstructed, revived, or invented religious movements, that have taken inspiration from indigenous, archaic, and esoteric traditions.

BY WILLIAM MACKENZIE, SECRETARY, CROFTERS COMMISSION. Inberne«*: PRINTED BY THE NORTHERN COUNTIES NEWSPAPER AND PRINTING AND PUBLISHING COMPANY, LIMITED. 1 8 95. Digitized by C.OOQ Le 0-H 1 , II Digitized by Vj OOQIC OPINIONS ON THE PAPER AFTER PUBLICATION IN THE TRANSACTIONS OF THE GAELIC SOCIETY OF INVERNESS. The chief attraction of the present volume is the exhaustive work on Gaelic Charms and Incantations, by Mr William Mackenzie, who has collected an immense mass of curious old Gaelic material, which was never until now put on record. The paper covers nearly a hundred pages, and is a worthy complement of Nicolson’s great work on Gaelic Proverbs. It is most curious to find that many traditions are yet preserved in the Highlands with regard to St Patrick’s Hymn and other things intimately connected with, but now forgotten in Ireland.—Professor O'Growney The Irish Gaelic Journal. Mixed up with what was sound and scientific in mediaeval medical practice was much that was neither the one nor the other. To the draught or bolus of the leech was often added a Charm or Incantation to render it efficacious. Many of those curious rhymes and ceremonies still survive, especially in the Uisbs and Barra, and an excellent collection of them was printed last season by Mr William Mackenzie, secretary of the Deer Forests Commission, a gentleman who had exceptional opportunities for gathering reliable information regarding these interesting matters.—Professor Maclcinnon on the Medical Gaelic MSS.

  • Rituals and Techniques of Vampiric Magick
    RITUALS AND TECHNIQUES OF VAMPIRIC MAGICK Three sections on magickal practices related to vampirism, including a discussion on the techniques of psychic vampirism, a ritual to attract and/or thank vampiric entities, and a report on the creation of a vampiric servitor (not fully tested at this point). The Practice of Psycho-Magickal Vampirism What is psychic vampirism? Basically, draining (and in the method I am detailing, absorbing) energy from other people, often against their will or at least without their knowledge And what does it do for you? It increases magickal power and sensitivity, and makes one feel more energetic, adds to vitality. Many people do it unconsciously. For example, have you ever met someone who it tired and drained you just to be in the same room with? That is a perfect example of unconscious psychic vampirism. People who do it unconsciously don’t usually store the energy in themselves, but rather disperse it uselessly into their surroundings. So how does one perform psychic vampirism? Psychic vampirism is largely performed through visualisation and lots and lots of practice. One way to do it is to target a person and just visualise energy inside and around them. Some people can see it normally so they don't have to visualise - people who can see and manipulate auras will have a definite advantage here. You then try to pull the energy out of the person. Feel it gathering inside you, and see it leaving them. Feel the build up of energy revitalizing you, making you tingle with what feels like static electricity, and draw it all into yourself, feeling it invigorating you.

Cioran “No chaos, no creation. Evidence: the kitchen at mealtime.” Mason Cooley “Chaos is the score upon which reality is written.” Henry Miller 2 | Khaos Magick & Urban Shamanism KHAOS MAGICK & URBAN SHAMANISM THE GIFT OF AWARENESS By Frater Sheosyrath (((-(---∞°, 5°) KKKhaos, in the most basic terms, is the energy substance that holds together the cosmic multi-verse. In not so basic terms, it is known as "the god particle", the universal subconscious, the abyss, the void, the web, the force, dust, etc. There is some speculation among us as to whether or not dark matter is the material representation of Khaos. Section I: The Khaos Experiment Subsection A: Outline Thesis 1. The cosmic multi-verse is infinite. 2. The cosmic multi-verse is tied together by a universal conscious awareness comprised energy. 3. The higher functionality of the subconscious mind is directly linked to this universal conscious awareness. 4. Communication with these parts of our mind through various techniques furthers our understanding of reality. Objectives 1. Manipulate the states of consciousness the brain functions in. 2. Tap into the subconscious intuitive circuit to initiate communication with the universal conscious awareness. Subsection B: Basic Theory Veils of Emanation (Veils of Negative Existence) 1. Ein (Ain) - nothing (void) 2. Ein Sof (Ain Soph) - infinite nothing (infinite void) 3.

    Magick and Physics by Dave Lee (from Chaotopia: Magick and Ecstasy in the PandaemonAeon , Attractor 1997) CONTENTS • The Science-Magick Interface • The Physics of Consciousness • Consciousness as a Bose-Einstein Condensate • Consequences of the theory • Conclusion: Sorcery, Metaphysics and Science Chaos Magick emerged at the end of an era whose Grand Narrative was Science and Progress. However, the ‘weird science’ narrative of Quantum Mechanics has opened the door to phenomena that would previously have been rejected. Chaos Magick has, from its inception, been coloured by this micro-Aeon of postmodernist science. How much use to the sorcerer is this science? THE SCIENCE-MAGICK INTERFACE In the past twenty years, mystics and magicians with a theoretical bent have drawn increasingly on the physical sciences for models of their experience. Fritjof Capra’s ‘The Tao of Physics’ and Gary Zukav’s ‘The Dancing Wu Li Masters’ started the ball rolling by developing the mystical implications of the observer-dependent universe; Robert Anton Wilson suggested how quantum physics is compatible with magick in ‘Illuminati Papers’. More recently, Peter J. Carroll has constructed a full-blown quantum-based theory of magick, Chaos Magick Theory (in Liber Kaos ). The peculiar features of quantum theory are:- 1. The wave property of matter and energy : Any object which obeys quantum theory (e.g. a particle such as an electron) can be in more than one place at once. Its position is ‘smeared out’ into a probability function , which tells us the probability of finding it an any given place when we measure its position; 2. The particle property of energy and matter : when we measure the position of a quantum object, we pin it down, as it were, to a particle-like state - i.e.

  • Terence Mckenna's Jungian Psychedelic Ufology
    Inner Space/Outer Space: Terence McKenna’s Jungian Psychedelic Ufology ___________________________________________________________________ Christopher Partridge ABSTRACT: This article discusses the relationship between “inner space” (the mind/consciousness) and perceptions of “outer space” (the extraterrestrial) in Western psychedelic cultures. In particular, it analyses the writings and lectures of Terence McKenna, the most influential psychedelic thinker since the 1960s. Assimilating a broad range of ideas taken from esotericism, shamanism, and science fiction, McKenna became the principal architect of an occult theory of psychedelic experiences referred to here as “psychedelic ufology.” The article further argues that McKenna was formatively influenced by the ideas of Carl Jung and that, as such, subsequent psychedelic ufology tends to be Jungian. KEYWORDS: Terence McKenna, Carl Jung, psychedelic ufology, UFOs, hallucinogens, shamanism, gnosis During a lecture in Switzerland in 1995, the American psychedelic thinker Terence McKenna (1946-2000) claimed that if a person gave him “15 minutes of [their] life” (i.e. if he was given the time to administer an hallucinogen) he could guarantee “a 20% chance of meeting aliens—and the odds go up to maybe 40% if you increase the dose!”1 While this can be interpreted as a playful comment about induced hallucinations rather than anything more profound, this would be a mistake. For McKenna it was no coincidence that “UFO contact [was]… the motif most frequently mentioned by people who take psilocybin recreationally.”2 “At active levels, psilocybin induces visionary ideation of spacecraft, alien creatures, and alien information. There is a general futuristic, science fiction quality to the psilocybin experience that seems to originate from the same place as the modern myth of the UFO.”3 He is not alone in claiming this.

  • Ellis and the Underground
    1 The Marauder Underground Our primary activity is attacking what is commonly known as consensual reality, the dominant paradigm, the mundane world, whatever you want to call it. We cast spells, scribe sigils, summon spirits, and open gateways. Anything that can be done to influence reality towards our goal. We use chalk to tag buildings & sidewalks with sigils and goetic summonings. We conjure up spirits and set them loose, leaving in our wake freshly haunted sites. We infect the population with the power of chaos, and watch as random magick explodes into the lives of unsuspecting citizens. We are reality deviants in the truest sense of the word, as we pry open the eyes of a sleeping humanity to the terror and wonder of the worlds beyond. What you are about to read is a condensed presentation of the online forums, emails, and conversations that encompass the creation, implementation, and current state of Ellis and the underground. Much of the original online discussion that gave birth to what may or may not be this movement has been lost or deleted. As a result, this text begins in the middle, with the first recoverable post. This text edited to the best quality, though consider the source, given that being published was not the original goal. To summarize, this discussion began with a question posed about placing ads in newspapers with the text “Magick is Real” and what sorts of effects would occur. From this humble beginning you may or may not have before you the resulting revolution. 2 Alaudurel: In retrospect, this could also be a great way to find others in your area; I, for one, think I'd get curious should I stumble across various markings.

  • NON PARADIGMAL MAGICK This Manuscript Lays out an Exercise in Non-Paradigmal Pantheon Creation
    NON PARADIGMAL MAGICK This manuscript lays out an exercise in non-paradigmal pantheon creation. We see this as an especially useful way of introducing magick to those who wish to practice without the use of specific deities. By creating this experiment, we ultimately want to test the efficacy of non-paradigmal magick. To begin, we have created eight egregores that each represent a color of magick as outlined by Peter Carroll in Liber Kaos. These egregores will serve participating magicians by acting as a point of contemplation in the creation of an individual servitor for each person, in each color of magick. In other words, the magician will draw from the egregore to receive or create a liaison to work with, rather than working with the egregore directly. The reason for this extra step is to allow the magician to work within a given color of magick without their work being clouded by outside influence. By creating and interacting with your servitor, you will be indirectly interacting with the egregore. Therefore, there is no need to directly feed the egregore once you’ve begun work with your servitor. As your practice continues with each egregore through the creation of individual servitors, you will begin to collect a self-created “pantheon” through which you will explore, gain insight, and enact your magick. This is an exercise not based on serving some god, but on creating entities to serve you, however you see fit. Should you choose to do so, you may share information regarding your servitor with our community as a means by which others may benefit from its creation.
