    So if you discover an ancestor that had previously been “forgotten”, does your acknowledgment of them then pull their shade back from wherever it had progressed to? Or is it perhaps like reactivating something that had gone dormant due to being forgotten?

    Question: what if you just eat the sigil? I also thought maybe flushing it or throwing it into trash might be bad, but meditation + eating it ? Probably puts a limit on number of sigils a month, because how many paper slips you can eat before it gets unhealthy

    • @amateurmagus
      @amateurmagus 2 дня назад

      typically youre going to want to dispose of the sigil in a "natural" way (burning, buring, sending off into a body of water casting it into the wind after shreding it ect) I do not recommend this unless its for something tagetting your physical body and even then only if its like? food based sigil. so like frosting on a cake or something not just the regular paper. please dont eat paper and ink that cant be healthy

    I waited a hold day to watch this, finally watched it, and now I'd like to come with an argument. Could this "shade" part, this identity that is us, the ego you could argue... This has the potential to become a "ghost" or such, doesn't it? I mean, I have a running theory about ghosts and different versions of them, but this shade part seems like it has that potential, even if they are forgotten by others, perhaps they would carry on with the memories themselves? Further more, I'm not entirely sure about the inability to sell the soul. If we take the Nefesh and Ruach, don't artists sell this all the time to record labels for fame and success? Now, I'm not sure about how this effects the Neshama, but I'm pretty sure it brings on pretty harsh karma, but I'd love to learn more. Edit: I actually prefer the hermetic kabbalist version of outlining the soul, as it's more comfortable with my christian upbringing. (hence why I'm also comfortable with ceremonial magick) their explanation almost seems like a reflection of the trinity in some way.

    • @amateurmagus
      @amateurmagus 2 дня назад

      The shade can and sometimes does become a ghost. But again that is not the soul. As for artists : No they don't the original "sell your soul" story wasn't even featuring demons as the west understands them. The closest thing we have to an actual "Sell your soul" story is Faust which is a work of fiction. If artists were able to sell their souls for fame and success then there would be no failures or starving artists.

    • @unclecrown
      @unclecrown 2 дня назад

      @@amateurmagus You're right, the shade/Ruach not "the soul", but if we associate it with the ego/personality, while we can agree that it's not the soul I then ask "does it/ruach know that?" The nephesh, ruach, and neshamah need to work together, it seems, even if parts seem oblivious to the others. But to reply to the artists parts: I mean, if authority over the nephesh and ruach are given to record labels and managers, isn't that akin to the understanding of selling ones soul? Forgive my willingness to want to debate, it's in my nature, plus I'm fascinated by this subject.

  • @jrkirby93
    @jrkirby93 2 дня назад

    I thought what most people meant by "selling their soul" was more a shorthand of "selling the authority to control the destination of their soul after physical death". This would only be available to someone who had at least some authority or influence on the path of their soul after physical death. For example, a christian who puts their faith in Jesus, could then renounce the ways of Jesus, and in doing so give authority over the destination of their soul to another entity to bring them wherever it likes after physical death (presumably some type of hell or slavery of the entity's choosing).

    So I've been studying the mechanics of magic for about 34 years now and it's actually very simple. Truth be told it took me 3 decades to figure this out because you can't see the forest for the trees. To sum up, Lon Milo Duquette is right, it's all in your head, you just don't know how big your head is. The pentacles are the "keys" that The KoS speaks about in general but the truth is that there are keys throughout the book. The pentacles are conventions for your mind & nothing more. Come to speak of it, ALL ritual in magic are conventions for the mind. In essence, magic is affirmation. Yep just like the affirmations you say in the mirror or to yourself to make inner change. Affirmation & magic are one and the same. I'm about to make a book I think & explain it all & I will leave no doubt as to the validity of my claim.
