Sigil and Chaos Magic have proven decisive in the history of contemporary magickal theory and practice, both of which were powerfully influenced by the works of the artist, writer and occultist Austin Osman Spare. This episode explores the philosophical foundations of Spare's magical theory and practice, especially in his development of the concepts of Kia, Zos and how Sigils can be planted deep within the psyche to unlock what Spare took to be vast metaphysical powers. ‪@drangelapuca‬ follows up this exploration by exploring Spare's impact on contemporary esoteric practices, Chaos Magick and shamanism.

I would love if you read and reviewed "Dogme et Rituel de la Haute Magie" or "The Doctrine and Ritual of High Magic" by Éliphas Lévi. One of the second books I read when I started getting into the occult through my first reading of "The Kybalion" and all other things related to Hermetics and Mental Alchemy. Truly an inspiring and great read. I would argue that Éliphas Lévi's contribution to the occult and magick is not properly appreciated.

I recently used a technique inspired by Spare's methods to create a musical chord sequence generator app which transforms a string of words (an intention to be sigilized) into a set of four chords which can then be used as an object of meditation or "activation" by other means... My method for activating such sigils is usually to sit at a piano, toodle around on the chosen four chords until I settle on a pleasant riff, and then repeat that riff mindlessly for an hour or so, zoning out on it as hard as possible to the point that I'm barely awake at the piano. When I reach a point of exhaustion, I go rest and try to forget about the whole affair as much as possible. This act of introducing the data repeatedly at a point of exhaustion is one of the ways you can create and take advantage of that "stack overflow" you mentioned. Forgetting about it keeps your brain from retroactively "correcting" the changes you made on a subconscious level to conform with your previous patterns and protocols which the magick aimed to alter. You're kind of exploiting back doors in your own psychological immune system. Pretty dangerous stuff in the wrong hands.

@@thenowchurch6419 Well, the way I understand the theory dictates that the technique is primarily useful for breaking or forming habits on various levels of one's mental/emotional architecture. I can say that I've had success refocusing my nervous system onto tasks that were previously much more opaque to my understanding and abilities. For example, this method has been very helpful in my recent shift from an attempted career in music to a more stable career in computer science. I target my intentions mostly toward new abilities I want to cultivate, and it seems to be helpful. Can't say much beyond that. Probably not much different than other affirmation-based motivational techniques, but at least this one has an interesting theoretical basis that my overcomplicated brain can appreciate as potentially valid and therefore utilize.

This idea of encoding (or "discovering") powerful sigils and then tapping into their potency by storing them deep within the mind reminds me a lot of the Caryll Runes found in Bloodborne, a game heavily steeped in Gothic and Lovecraftian occultism. The idea of "vacuity" of mind being a purer form of consciousness which leaves one more open to communion with greater cosmic powers is also _explicitly_ present in the game. Very interesting―I knew little about Spare, so this was quite enlightening. Thank you, as always!

I haven't played Bloodborne, so I'm not actually familiar with these runes, but "Caryll" may be a variation of Carroll. This being a reference to Peter J Carroll, one of the leading figures in the development of Chaos magic. Carroll has been heavily influenced by Spare - particularly in regards to sigil theory, so this connection is highly plausible. If you're interested in the topic, Carroll has written a number of books. The most prominent being Liber Null / Psychonaut and Liber Kaos. Both should be widely available, probably around $15 or so for each. Not too long of a read, modern approach and very practical. I would consider them absolutely essentially to anyone studying magic, regardless of what tradition you are focusing on.

This video was intelligent and well done. Osmon Spare is an example of a pattern. He was probably a genius and did contribute some interesting ideas and concepts, but here’s the thing- he lived impoverished his entire life, Crowley also seems to have a miserable drama filled life. Joseph Smith - a martyr. What are we accomplishing here ? Self empowerment , what? “ by their Fruits ye shall know them “. Whatever comes after their lives- is the answer and that is in the eye of the beholder.

"And you guessed it, you can use it to find buried treasure" Dee and Kelley look at each other in excitement and clap hands 👏.... The archangel nods in disapproval.... Again.

I spent some years studying A.O.S. and totally agree with your comments - however, I did always address him by a pronunciation that differs somewhat - Spare, as in 'spare the rod and spoil the child' etc. Maybe I have had it wrong all these years, either way, enigmatic says it all...

You know I used to too and someone 'corrected' me while I was studying in Amsterdam. I can't remember who now. Maybe it's like the difference in how people say Crowley's name...or, even more likely, I'm just wrong.

Your introduction reminded me so much of how magical beliefs are still today being synthesized with (admittedly poorly understood) scientific concepts. There's a lot of magical hubbub about "vibrations/resonance", which are words frequently used in string theory and - more importantly and concretely - our understanding of quantum chemistry. As a scientist, it's kind of funny to hear about that stuff because they're so clearly just throwing scientific buzz words haphazardly into religious and magical beliefs without the actual scientific basis behind those terms, but it's at least cathartic to see there's an extensive history of exactly this behavior!

Thank you Justin. Hey you should do a little bit on Jane Roberts!! She influenced the so called new age movement big time w the Seth Speaks channeling material. Seth could have been Set! Who knows, but I find it incredible that she could come up with such amazing concepts while in a trance. Love your channel!
