My Teacher, Michael Tsarion, always says that the nature of the Great Mystery is such that it reflects back the face we shine into it. This attitude of lack and petty greed will meet one with demons. The study of the Truth must be for the love of the Truth itself.

The asshole part had me dying laughing. I wanted to curse my ex who is a diagnosed paranoid sociopath. So yea just telling him I am would do the trikc without actually doing it.
I experienced the effects of imbalance due to the occult. Became obsessed in the early 2010s and ended up losing the power totally later on. Actually started believing it was totally psychological at a certain point. I've been working at balance between my spiritual and physical life and I've been regaining power again.
This is so true, very insightful perspective! Obviously, I work with tarot, but I often put it away and make sure to put my feet to pavement and focus on action in the 3D. I’ve seen far too many younger people blow so much money, just as you described, buying all manner of stones and all sorts of things… but hey, I like all that stuff too, I just don’t give it my power 🙂 I’m going to binge this whole occult series, I really appreciate your capacity to speak so clearly on these topics 😁
Great video. A level headed view on the subject. However, I wouldn't be too quick to 100% dismiss the possibility of frightening spiritual experiences when practicing magic, especially darker magic, Satanism etc. At least keep an open mind. It would be foolish to practice with your guard completely dropped.
@@supersl0wz0om53 all occult worship and practice appeals to the prince of the air. Works do not get you to heaven no ritual no set of words no prayer will get you in heaven. Only accepting Jesus as your savior can you be saved. Jesus did the work you just have to accept it.
I tried to talk around a Thelemite who was putting himself into massive debt to reach 'the next level'. I asked him, have you tried looking for a job or starting your own business? I stopped talking to him. He could not be helped (and should have read his books more carefully). I am not speaking poorly of Thelema. It isn't a group and doesn't ask for fees.
I practiced magic as a pre teen and watched it unfold and I also paid the price when violating others free will. Also when I was a child I touched a homemade oija board and it was moving and I was confused I didn't know what that divination tool was because I was a child. My mom taught me tarot as a child. I have been around it my whole life and seen its power. Because you are using your own energy and possibly manipulating others (which is when you will pay) I have also seen entities I can't explain and I am shown signs from passed over loved ones constantly. There is truth in magic. You must respect free will and understand universal laws if you want to honor all life while expressing your power. You have to pair effort and your rituals I totally agree. Psychology and spirituality go hand in hand. Rituals are somatic exercises etc
It is kind of like gambling. Cos you will often find that people who are addicted to gambling have a very successful success the first time they gamble after that they get obsessed and addicted.
Also I think it's important to clarify what occult is because it's been painted as scary and dark and evil by mainstream religious folk. Occult simply means hidden, so it's knowledge that's not been made popular. I love reading so-called occult literature and I think magic is a fascinating study as well but it's not for everyone! Especially people who have been highly steeped in that Christian church mindset...your mind will become your enemy if you think that demons are lurking and want to possess you...Thanks for this video -always an intelligent presentation!
I have dabbled with ceremonial magik, but as far as a practice to gain magik powers or conjuring spirits...I am not comfortable with opening doors which may not be closed, or unleashing entities that can cause harm or mischief. We simply don't understand enough about the other realms In my opinion. I think some of dark people and corruption in this world is a direct result of deliberate intention or accidental by ingnorant people. I would be interested in hearing about your thoughts, experience or practice as well NebulaGFx
"Demons aren't lurking and want to possess you" Next post "I am not comfortable with opening doors which may not be closed or unleashing entities that can cause harm" huh... no real contradiction there
@@joshf2218 thank God someone has some sense. Occult does simply mean secret but all occult knowledge relies on Original Sin. "Eat from the Forbidden Fruit amd ye shall be like God" = "perform this ritual with this breathing and unlock your third eye" this gnostic nonesense is full of half truths but half truths are whole lies. "Enlightenment" through works or rituals is merely Lucifer "light bearer" taking God's reality and weaving deception through out it. He doesn't need you to belieive in him he only needs to turn you away from God. Any serious occultist knows exactly who they appeal to with their spells and anyone who denies it either is lying or paonfully ignorant of their own passion.
@emulouspoint Not sure you'll ever read this but that's most likely a thought form of some kind you created. Not a very focused one or at least wasn't directed by you consciously probably because it was created unconsiously. You can look into Tulpa creation to learn more about it as I've found their stuff on thought forms the most useful. Your prayer was essentially consciously communicating with that thought form to go away and lie dormant because once you've made one it will always be there but can be turned off as it were. I've talked with people that have molded their thought forms into proper tulpas by communicating with them. It's interesting stuff if you want to look into it. You could start with: tulpa.io/what-is-a-tulpa and tulpa.io/faqs-dispelling-myths Hope that helps as I think if you have created an unfocused thought form it's better to consciously focus it rather than just let it lie dormant till it resurfaces. That that's just my opinion. Do what works for you.
Have to disagree with you on curses and possession, my family once owned a house the entire city knows as haunted. I know what i saw, and everything that happened was very much real.
What you mentioned here with most occult and prayers, is the Law of Attraction. Which is an actual phenomenon that I have done so myself a few times with small stuff I wanted? I agree that if you were to do a ritual or prayer that you have to take the opportunity to have it materialise in front of you.
praying for material wealth will not work in accordance with the new testament because it says very expressly that you shouldn't even worry about your material well being... so you cannot conclude that prayer doesn't work simply because you didn't get that car or that house or win the lottery. That's very poor understanding on your part of biblical theology and the purpose of prayer... to judge the scriptures based on people who pray to God to give them money is just like judging the occult based on people who go crazy from it. Having watched your videos on why you left Christianity / the top ten lies of Christianity, I can only conclude that you were part of some funky American type church that is not based on sound interpretation of the scripture. The mainline American Christian church has been infiltrated in the past few decades by all kinds of things not belonging to the scriptures whatsoever, and to hear refutations such as this of why Christianity or prayer doesn't work only serves the more knowledgeable as an example of how poorly the critics often understand the word of God. Not to mention that the various ideologies that have made up the rainbow of occult thought through the ages are becoming the mainline fashionable religious and spiritual thought themselves. Peace
hi there, can i just say, your intelligence is so attractive and you are totally captivating. im at a place (have been for around 2 years now) seeking something, but dont know what. i was brought up a catholic but i do know that i believe there are many gods/dieties 'good and bad' or shall we say positive or high energy and negative or low energy. i dont know what 'religion this fits into, or if at all. but what you say makes so much sense to me. please continue your videos. i love them so much. and honestly, your truly captivating. thank you so much xxxx
Dude I really dig your video and REALLY respect what you are saying...but there seems to be an err of doubt in whether this stuff works or not.. Im gonna tell you right now...I was pretty skeptical when I first discovered the occult....however I did a few rituals in which manifested entities....in the home in which I was practicing hermetic magick. So I had a few experiences that literally scared the shit out of me...as in I felt things inside of my body and head....night terrors etc...now all this could boil down to an unbalanced psychology HOWEVER. I have had numerous roomates tell me that the house was haunted or that they are having weird experiences ...interestingly I was practicing in secret,.....hoenestly I had a lot of intellectual friends who I was afraid would make fun of me not think I was a witch...so these were "balanced" individuals who did not feel comfortable in my home. ....needless to say I realized I was messing with things that I didn't know enough about....boxed up all my occult paraphanalia and literally forgot about it for 10 years.......so the reason Im even watching this video is my interest in the occult has recently been sparked by a series of strange events... interestingly enough one my current GF contacted me and told me that a guy she knew came into her work that she kind of knew....this gentleman happens to be renting the apartment in which I used to practice....he swears the place is haunted and wants out! I thought Id share....great video!! PS Edit - Id also like to add that for very quick and REAL results that are tangible... work with channeling and mediums....I understand that there is ALOT of charlatanism out there but you seem to have a good grounded spirit about you....and I think you would be able to smell the bullshit when its there VS the real deal....this is whats worked for me....I now have a genuine fear of whats possible with certain occult paths...
Sorry for the inquiry, but if you do not mind disclosing this.......could you possibly go into detail about a certain "entity" which you manifested? I'm not casting doubt upon you, I am genuinely interested in not only your experience but others as well. Is this a path you would recommend for a better quality of life?
I also get what you are saying, Rituals and Prayer alike are just psychology at it's finest. " I pray for my mother to be cured of cancer." via prayer she's going to have a more positive outlook and motivation to eat well and take care of herself and pursue the right treatment etc... I am very new to this but It's starting to make sense a bit.
The big secret of the occult is the power of belief and will power. All you're really doing is learning to take full advantage of mind, both yours and others if you so choose. The only disagreement I'd have with this video is that it is extremely easy to control atheists. Not so much in regards to cursing them but just generally control. Atheists tend to be extremely polarised and polarised people are amongst the easiest people to control. Before anyone says it, there's nothing ethically wrong with mind control. It depends on how you're using it. One can use mind control against another for their own good. The truth is, most people are too damn stubborn to fix their own life so it's good to give those type of people a nudge in the right direction. Hell sometimes I'll lead people to hit rock bottom if I'm sure it'll teach them a good life lesson and they won't kill themselves in the process. All occultism is is mind control, just not in the "conspiracy theory" sense.
Hey, great content, glad I found your channel. I have a question for you: I have a friend who got obsessed with recording ghost voices (or EVP) in his house. To make a long, but very interesting story short, he began to hear the ghost voices (the same ones he heard on the recordings) in his head, constantly. He developed full blown psychosis and EVP was the catalyst. He fully believes they are astral beings that are bothering him. The voices do seem to mimic what most schizophrenics report, however he exhibits no other symptoms of schizophrenia. I'm curious to see what you would make of that situation. Most people have told him it's fully psychological and he finds that frustrating because he doesn't think that's the case. I'm on the fence about it.
Cullen Page this is 100% part of the way that evil can affect you I believe. I am not some crazy Bible thumper but I honestly feel like he should announce his heart and soul to Jesus Christ. I have always thought that these mental things were just a label on demonic possession.
Two other dangers that you might have mentioned: The first is the feeling of responsibility. Normally, we are only responsible for our own actions, but if you set in motion an operation that has disastrous results, you are responsible for the fallout. Anyone with a conscience can be crushed by accepting this responsibility. The second is that practicing the occult introduces a schism into the worldview. Most people have a worldview that is rational, based on simple cause-effect relationships. The occult introduces a splinter into that worldview, and when this happens, it begins to tear at the seems (sic) of one's worldview, widening the gap between simple cause/effect relationships. This widens the gap between what one believes to be reality, and what is actually real. Sanity suffers because the mind's ability to grasp reality becomes less coherent. It may not lead to clinical schizophrenia (which is a hodgepodge of various symptoms collectively defined) but it can lead to a psychotic break from reality, in which the mind fails to function normally in a rational way.
Just found your channel, you are very smart and everything you said is true. I just miss the part where you mention that there are def negative entities who can and will attach to you if you do not practice wisely? I'm a spiritualist btw, why do for example some tarot readers experience nightmares and fears, flashing pictures before sleeping after playing with the cards? That's a very sensitive topic and def has to be discussed more greetings
It works like a quick fix that all it does nothing worth while comes from it it's short lived gratification that comes with a price and they show you what your giving up ahead of time .
Hey styx, great videos. What book would you recommend for someone new to studying the occult? EDIT: I just ordered your Occult philosophy for the modern age book.
i am starting gythia training and i was curious if you had any tips as far as mental and physical preparation ? i only ask because i feel like there might be a mind shift i should prepare for.
With what you said about paying for membership, how do you feel about the greater church of lucifer having you pay for membership? You do receive material but it is 100-250 dollars for the few different memberships..
True magic, the divine form of magic, that doesn’t require any sort of contrived effort or coercion, speaks for itself. It doesn’t have to be expressed verbally or described in some way. It doesn’t need to be pointed out. It just is. And it is perfectly content just basking in its is-ness. It is the miracle of every single millisecond of life, of consciousness, in this reality field. The true Sage gets into union with that essence underlying all of reality, and allows the miracles to manifest into physicality through their vessel. They are not the miracle worker. Merely the conduit. So it becomes clear that the only thing that sets a Saint apart from everyone else is the frequency at which they are able to consciously channel the divine Will into manifestation through their actions, as opposed to allowing the program overlays - the counterfeit - to run in their stead. The programs have a way of convincing us that they ARE us. So with every action that we take, we need to ask ourselves, “Is this action being prompted by my True Divine Nature, or is its motivation and justification coming from something outside of my True Self?”
I agree with this for the most part. A couple things I would like to comment on. 1. Saying that you should leave the occult if you get results right away seems like bad advice. Maybe they are a natural, maybe they were meant for it. Just keep a level head, don't spend 20 grand on enochian tools just because you got a girl to like you with your first ritual (lol) 2. I wouldn't say that any and all orders that cost money to join or require dues are scams.... that's a bit over the top. Just use good judgment, it's all about what the information is worth to you. All of the orders you mentioned I would agree aren't worth the money. Other than that I agree with everything. Shadilay
I need to show to the next person who tries to shove the "Law of Attraction" stuff to me. The more I think of it, LOA is basically just like praying to a God for blessings without taking into account actual work and effort.
If one wanted to get into the occult and never has, where would be a good starting point? I'm currently an atheist but I have been very interested in the old pagan celtic gods, the gods of my ancestors. I dont even know if it is considered occult, regardless im just curious can anyone with experience provide some insight?
is there a way you can contact me via email?? Because Im gonna right a HUGE report for you about what this is all about....but its too much to just post here...It will make sense and Im sure that you will have a deeper understandin...No problem on the inquiry above btw!
Could this be why I have more excessive problems with guilt because, I not wisely used LSD I was peer pressured I did not want to in fact, I wanted to sell it or just microdose at most because I knew my mind was not disciplined enough but the peer pressure was so consistent that my will broke after a few weeks of constant peer pressure from my brother. I believe LSD could be used as potentially a spiritual/occult device to assist in a multitude of ways but I also believe it can be equally as destructive and for example should never ever be used as a party drug it's not cociane LSD literally breaks reality in so many ways it is crazily mysterious powerful and vaste.
This is a very old video, but do you believe the rituals can work in the sense it would deviate from the results earned through aligning your phycology and effort in a secular framework in any substantial way? Psychological alignment + effort < Psychological alignment + effort + occult ritual?
I just started watching your newer videos recently mostly about politics an really liked them an the way you speak on the issues of what is going on i can tell your well educated an Versed in many subjects which brings me to my question i wanted to see your older videos because i was interested in your other beliefs of Satanism an yes i am still a Believer in God and pray to him sometimes for help but your views I cannot deny that some things just don't make sense not to say I'm on the tipping point of going a different path I'm just confused .i guess what i am asking you is have you ever gotten results from your Practices of satanism over most Christian or Catholic faith....
"God choses which one to listen to." I'd say rather... you get IN LINE with the divine will / natrual laws aka the justice card, cause if not. Why would God help anyone who asks him for help, if it's not according to God's will? God expects us to find God, and get in line with God's will & not the opposite way around. I firmly believe that and practising it, so it's a big change in myself that I've been busy with for quite some time now. It's hard to "adjust" (atleast for me) but still I keep trying until the chatter stops of what I WANT to be true vs what is actually true.
the subconscious and fleeing thoughts do often come to reality. it's the way too consciously implant the thought into the subconscious with out thinking about it too much. I've found it's like quantum observation. I think some occult things were methods to achieve this to manifest intention. I don't know how to achieve this but would love to learn. I've observed many times that a unconscious fleeing thought the event happens quite fast after.
I just want to clarify I'm looking to see if anyone else has had similar experiences. I'm not quite sure how to explain it but it's just a thought that pops in and out of your head with out you really every noticing our thinking about it and directly after the event happens
While I respect your thought process I must say that you can't possibly know whether a person who has ever used a ouija board could be possessed or not. You'd have to investigate such reports to even come close to approaching the truth. To say something like that authoritatively is wrong. It's speculation at best. Anecdotally, I have a very close friend who knew a person who had become possessed after using it. She started speaking in a different voice, telling people their own secrets she wouldnt have known, and curing at everyone. She stayed like this for two weeks, and was quite traumatized by the experience.
That's a pretty shallow view of Christian prayer. When I was a kid, my mom always told me to say prayers for other people: my grandparents, my friends, other family, etc. It was never, ever put out as a sort of path to prosperity. Indeed, even a cursory understanding of Jesus' philosophy would reveal that to pray for material riches is inherently contradictory (blessed are the poor, etc.). The goal is to build up internal riches, i.e. leading a moral/ethical life. For wealth, gold, lucre, etc., is only of this world while internal riches, i.e. the pearl of great price, last eternally. When one does pray for oneself, the more traditional prayer telos is forgiveness, mercy. A good example, one of the most common prayers said around the world, is the Orthodox Jesus prayer: "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner." Now, more people may pray for material things than pray out of a genuine sense of contrition, but that speaks more to our own outsized desire for material things than it does to prayer. What is a prayer? A prayer is a hope. No one should expect that their prayer must be answered, for then God would be some sort of ontological vending machine. But believing that God has infinite mercy, they can pray (hope) for mercy and forgiveness. People want to be good, but invariably we all do bad things. Without an outlet for our guilt, a sense of absolution, the bad that we do can eat away at us.
Watching a little further into your video, I see you using the prosperity gospel as an example of Christian teaching. I'm not one to call something heretical, as I try to look at things from a non-judgmental, apophatic mode, but man, the prosperity gospel theology really tests me ability to not call something a heresy.
Man where have you been in my life? Love your vibe and great points. People gotta understand magic starts with shifting your beliefs and perceptions to initiate change. The change is internal not external, and you really express that well.
Is there a way to just study the Occult to help one become wiser toward spiritual enlightenment without all the communicating with entities or using magic to give them power stuff? What about just trying to "know thyself"?
Meditation is probably the most basic way you can do that. It doesn't have to be about anything with the Occult or not. Meditation is one of the best things you can do for yourself just in general. Including as far as getting to know one's self better.
The Cocktail Critic ya it's called what every true Adept goes through first it's called Intiation. Those who have not have no clue what their taking about and said to say it are posers. Intiation is extremely hard that's why I bet most have not made it through. They read books and deside ok ya I'm a Magi.NOT It can be done in a lifetime but you need to be hardcore disciplined.Think something like seal training. Make sure it's really what you want. You'll realised that being all spiritual is not what you imagine it to be. The reason is it truely comes with alot of responsibility. Something a guy with just a jacket on and long hair would not know what his talking about
Not sure what you like to know. Theirs alot of things we think we would like. Then we do it we do not like it. That's because are perception of that thing has no actual fact in reality. The Occult means hidden for a reason. This is guarded because this is something that can be very dangerous and so must be respected. Take for your example being a bar tender, or cocktail expert like yourself. People are like he probably gets all the girls. So then that's why they get into it. So they start making cocktails. They start to see you have to study alot, you have to practice alot, you have to scarifice things. So they skip all that cause they're hearts only in it for the girls. Their additute sucks cause their unhappy their drinks suck, cause they don't know what their doing.. In the end they get no girls cause their unhappy and their drinks taste bad. People cling on to the Occult because they think this all about getting power(girls) or for their own EGO.They read some books on how to ride a motorcycle and then think they can ride a motorcycle. Ultimately they do it and find out not like that at all. When you want something of spiritual power you will be tempted by negative spiritual power. This means you have to scarifice alot expecialy desires. Or even worst control when you will eat your favourite cake or not, instead of just turning and walking away from it. To be the president is the same right. He has alot of power kind of but not really unless he knows how to work the system. He has a whole country full of family's young and old who NOW count on him. He can eathier improve lives our destoy them. Are you sure you really you want that kind power. Or better yet if you get that power will you become a Hitler or a Benjamin Franklin. The thing is you don't decide the will of the Universe Will. This is guarded by the most despicable demons and most high guardian angels. All I saying is make sure that's what you want. If so expect for it to be hard ,expect to fail, expect to hurt. Not everyone s a Navy Seal correct because of boot camp. Intiation is boot camp. They are also many paths but not all paths are right or rightous. Avoid anything you have to make an oath to.
Your body is a temple, you don't decide whether you become enlighten the God of the temple does. You cannot teach without being a student first. The silver key is given to all, but the gold key one must be earned, and it must be given to you Their is a very thin line between white and black Magick
The scammer really remind me of dark ages when people has cause a sin and they would go to a bishop in the area and they would pay to get a price of paper that noted God forgives them of There sins. It like history repeats itself. Lol
What if I am in a dark period of my life and I want to explore occult ritualism as a therapeutic option? I'm your typical atheist asshole type of guy was raised muslim but thankfully got out of it. I just miss that spirituality, that powerful feeling of purpose when in the mosque, doing the praying together. There was a period a couple of years ago, I was 19-20ish, I was homeless and out of desperation I picked up a bible, started sitting in church all day and reading it. I prayed that god would give me a sign to let me know this path was worthwhile. The only thing that happened was a half-liter tabasco bottle that was in my rucksack broke (probably cause I put it on the ground to brutally when i came to sit down). when the church was about to close and stood up to go i saw the pool of tabasco on the floor under my rucksack. what a mess. when cleaning out my bag in a public toilet i cut myself on the shards of the glass and tabasco entered my wounds, hurting a lot! My secularism was still strong as ever so i explained it away as just bad luck. since then I've come to think maybe i can't possibly with my brain really believe in a deity or anything, but I'd still like to consider the posibillity of there being a therapeutic value in performing rituals, (of course, not expecting any physical things from them, at least I've gotten that far). Is meeting people through ritual groups advisable? Any dangerous things i should look out for? I live in Belgium.
The biggest risk of the occult is all your friends will think you're nuts.
What friends?
I've already achieved that without the occult practices. Look at me, I'm so accomplished!
@@5050TM Maybe the occult will have an opposite effect and make you seem smart and exciting lol

The Occult should be part of a balanced philosophical diet.

Thank you this video was exactly what I wanted to hear.
In order to be successful in the occult, you have to keep one foot in reality.
Buying books is an addiction
risks = losing your mind
it might just unravel a little too much
Great video. A level headed view on the subject.

It is kind of like gambling. Cos you will often find that people who are addicted to gambling have a very successful success the first time they gamble after that they get obsessed and addicted.
They will always remember 5 times they won a lot and forget about the many many time they lost everything

I have dabbled with ceremonial magik, but as far as a practice to gain magik powers or conjuring spirits...I am not comfortable with opening doors which may not be closed, or unleashing entities that can cause harm or mischief. We simply don't understand enough about the other realms In my opinion. I think some of dark people and corruption in this world is a direct result of deliberate intention or accidental by ingnorant people. I would be interested in hearing about your thoughts, experience or practice as well NebulaGFx

huh... no real contradiction there
@@joshf2218 thank God someone has some sense. Occult does simply mean secret but all occult knowledge relies on Original Sin. "Eat from the Forbidden Fruit amd ye shall be like God" = "perform this ritual with this breathing and unlock your third eye" this gnostic nonesense is full of half truths but half truths are whole lies. "Enlightenment" through works or rituals is merely Lucifer "light bearer" taking God's reality and weaving deception through out it. He doesn't need you to belieive in him he only needs to turn you away from God. Any serious occultist knows exactly who they appeal to with their spells and anyone who denies it either is lying or paonfully ignorant of their own passion.
I've almost fallen over the edge many times and have had to pull myself out mentally.
@emulouspoint Not sure you'll ever read this but that's most likely a thought form of some kind you created. Not a very focused one or at least wasn't directed by you consciously probably because it was created unconsiously. You can look into Tulpa creation to learn more about it as I've found their stuff on thought forms the most useful.
Your prayer was essentially consciously communicating with that thought form to go away and lie dormant because once you've made one it will always be there but can be turned off as it were.
I've talked with people that have molded their thought forms into proper tulpas by communicating with them. It's interesting stuff if you want to look into it. You could start with: tulpa.io/what-is-a-tulpa and tulpa.io/faqs-dispelling-myths
Hope that helps as I think if you have created an unfocused thought form it's better to consciously focus it rather than just let it lie dormant till it resurfaces. That that's just my opinion. Do what works for you.
Such brutal truth in this video!
Have to disagree with you on curses and possession, my family once owned a house the entire city knows as haunted. I know what i saw, and everything that happened was very much real.
I needed to see this. Thank you
Great video and sensible advice.
your points in this vid are right its not like having superpowers really or creating miracles
very scary, yet very true. dont forget physically trying to do things.
I aim to be as wise as you.
I believe in the natural order of the universe & have never researched the "occult" so to speak. I find your explanations enlightening Styx.
What you mentioned here with most occult and prayers, is the Law of Attraction. Which is an actual phenomenon that I have done so myself a few times with small stuff I wanted? I agree that if you were to do a ritual or prayer that you have to take the opportunity to have it materialise in front of you.
Excellent show! I have never heard it explained better!
praying for material wealth will not work in accordance with the new testament because it says very expressly that you shouldn't even worry about your material well being... so you cannot conclude that prayer doesn't work simply because you didn't get that car or that house or win the lottery. That's very poor understanding on your part of biblical theology and the purpose of prayer... to judge the scriptures based on people who pray to God to give them money is just like judging the occult based on people who go crazy from it.
Having watched your videos on why you left Christianity / the top ten lies of Christianity, I can only conclude that you were part of some funky American type church that is not based on sound interpretation of the scripture. The mainline American Christian church has been infiltrated in the past few decades by all kinds of things not belonging to the scriptures whatsoever, and to hear refutations such as this of why Christianity or prayer doesn't work only serves the more knowledgeable as an example of how poorly the critics often understand the word of God.
Not to mention that the various ideologies that have made up the rainbow of occult thought through the ages are becoming the mainline fashionable religious and spiritual thought themselves. Peace
hi there, can i just say, your intelligence is so attractive and you are totally captivating. im at a place (have been for around 2 years now) seeking something, but dont know what. i was brought up a catholic but i do know that i believe there are many gods/dieties 'good and bad' or shall we say positive or high energy and negative or low energy. i dont know what 'religion this fits into, or if at all. but what you say makes so much sense to me. please continue your videos. i love them so much. and honestly, your truly captivating. thank you so much xxxx
Interesting videos. Very knowledgeable.
Good balanced article.
5:10 "They are becoming psychologically unbalanced" Q. Do you think this is what
happened to Crowley?
Dude I really dig your video and REALLY respect what you are saying...but there seems to be an err of doubt in whether this stuff works or not.. Im gonna tell you right now...I was pretty skeptical when I first discovered the occult....however I did a few rituals in which manifested entities....in the home in which I was practicing hermetic magick. So I had a few experiences that literally scared the shit out of me...as in I felt things inside of my body and head....night terrors etc...now all this could boil down to an unbalanced psychology HOWEVER. I have had numerous roomates tell me that the house was haunted or that they are having weird experiences ...interestingly I was practicing in secret,.....hoenestly I had a lot of intellectual friends who I was afraid would make fun of me not think I was a witch...so these were "balanced" individuals who did not feel comfortable in my home. ....needless to say I realized I was messing with things that I didn't know enough about....boxed up all my occult paraphanalia and literally forgot about it for 10 years.......so the reason Im even watching this video is my interest in the occult has recently been sparked by a series of strange events... interestingly enough one my current GF contacted me and told me that a guy she knew came into her work that she kind of knew....this gentleman happens to be renting the apartment in which I used to practice....he swears the place is haunted and wants out! I thought Id share....great video!!
PS Edit - Id also like to add that for very quick and REAL results that are tangible... work with channeling and mediums....I understand that there is ALOT of charlatanism out there but you seem to have a good grounded spirit about you....and I think you would be able to smell the bullshit when its there VS the real deal....this is whats worked for me....I now have a genuine fear of whats possible with certain occult paths...
Sorry for the inquiry, but if you do not mind disclosing this.......could you possibly go into detail about a certain "entity" which you manifested? I'm not casting doubt upon you, I am genuinely interested in not only your experience but others as well. Is this a path you would recommend for a better quality of life?
Well, now I'm just going to pray for you out of spite.
I also get what you are saying, Rituals and Prayer alike are just psychology at it's finest. " I pray for my mother to be cured of cancer." via prayer she's going to have a more positive outlook and motivation to eat well and take care of herself and pursue the right treatment etc... I am very new to this but It's starting to make sense a bit.
I like this guy....I'd hang out with him for sure. Perhaps we could cast a 9 foot circle and draw a triangle and talk to some spirits
The big secret of the occult is the power of belief and will power. All you're really doing is learning to take full advantage of mind, both yours and others if you so choose. The only disagreement I'd have with this video is that it is extremely easy to control atheists. Not so much in regards to cursing them but just generally control. Atheists tend to be extremely polarised and polarised people are amongst the easiest people to control. Before anyone says it, there's nothing ethically wrong with mind control. It depends on how you're using it. One can use mind control against another for their own good. The truth is, most people are too damn stubborn to fix their own life so it's good to give those type of people a nudge in the right direction. Hell sometimes I'll lead people to hit rock bottom if I'm sure it'll teach them a good life lesson and they won't kill themselves in the process. All occultism is is mind control, just not in the "conspiracy theory" sense.
and that's the tea.

13:37 nobody has ever explained how I feel about religion and occult better
Hey, great content, glad I found your channel. I have a question for you: I have a friend who got obsessed with recording ghost voices (or EVP) in his house. To make a long, but very interesting story short, he began to hear the ghost voices (the same ones he heard on the recordings) in his head, constantly. He developed full blown psychosis and EVP was the catalyst. He fully believes they are astral beings that are bothering him. The voices do seem to mimic what most schizophrenics report, however he exhibits no other symptoms of schizophrenia. I'm curious to see what you would make of that situation. Most people have told him it's fully psychological and he finds that frustrating because he doesn't think that's the case. I'm on the fence about it.
Cullen Page have you heard these recordings yourself?
Cullen Page this is 100% part of the way that evil can affect you I believe. I am not some crazy Bible thumper but I honestly feel like he should announce his heart and soul to Jesus Christ. I have always thought that these mental things were just a label on demonic possession.
I found my 7th grade yearbook this weekend, and i dont want it to enter my house. Superstition is a thorn in my side. Irrationally stifled.
The first risk reminds me of the old aesop about Hercules and the waggoner.
Two other dangers that you might have mentioned:
The first is the feeling of responsibility. Normally, we are only responsible for our own actions, but if you set in motion an operation that has disastrous results, you are responsible for the fallout. Anyone with a conscience can be crushed by accepting this responsibility.
The second is that practicing the occult introduces a schism into the worldview. Most people have a worldview that is rational, based on simple cause-effect relationships. The occult introduces a splinter into that worldview, and when this happens, it begins to tear at the seems (sic) of one's worldview, widening the gap between simple cause/effect relationships. This widens the gap between what one believes to be reality, and what is actually real. Sanity suffers because the mind's ability to grasp reality becomes less coherent. It may not lead to clinical schizophrenia (which is a hodgepodge of various symptoms collectively defined) but it can lead to a psychotic break from reality, in which the mind fails to function normally in a rational way.
Your video make me more balanced
Just found your channel, you are very smart and everything you said is true. I just miss the part where you mention that there are def negative entities who can and will attach to you if you do not practice wisely? I'm a spiritualist btw, why do for example some tarot readers experience nightmares and fears, flashing pictures before sleeping after playing with the cards? That's a very sensitive topic and def has to be discussed more greetings
It works like a quick fix that all it does nothing worth while comes from it it's short lived gratification that comes with a price and they show you what your giving up ahead of time .
Wrong
I lose something every time I try. If it's working for you more power to you.
Hey styx, great videos. What book would you recommend for someone new to studying the occult?
EDIT: I just ordered your Occult philosophy for the modern age book.
i am starting gythia training and i was curious if you had any tips as far as mental and physical preparation ? i only ask because i feel like there might be a mind shift i should prepare for.
Sounds like my gaming addiction.
With what you said about paying for membership, how do you feel about the greater church of lucifer having you pay for membership? You do receive material but it is 100-250 dollars for the few different memberships..

Is there a difference between astral projection and disassociation? I'm speaking with my therapist today is to see if I'm finally going crazy.
The Occult - how to have all the benefits of ruining your life without any of the inconveniences of being productive or successful
you are really smart guy,tnx for good vid and you got me subscribed
True magic, the divine form of magic, that doesn’t require any sort of contrived effort or coercion, speaks for itself. It doesn’t have to be expressed verbally or described in some way. It doesn’t need to be pointed out. It just is. And it is perfectly content just basking in its is-ness. It is the miracle of every single millisecond of life, of consciousness, in this reality field. The true Sage gets into union with that essence underlying all of reality, and allows the miracles to manifest into physicality through their vessel. They are not the miracle worker. Merely the conduit. So it becomes clear that the only thing that sets a Saint apart from everyone else is the frequency at which they are able to consciously channel the divine Will into manifestation through their actions, as opposed to allowing the program overlays - the counterfeit - to run in their stead. The programs have a way of convincing us that they ARE us. So with every action that we take, we need to ask ourselves, “Is this action being prompted by my True Divine Nature, or is its motivation and justification coming from something outside of my True Self?”
schizophrenic sentimentalism like this can go fuck itself.
I don’t read grimoire’s I write my own research after delving in to other dimensions.
I agree with this for the most part. A couple things I would like to comment on.
1. Saying that you should leave the occult if you get results right away seems like bad advice. Maybe they are a natural, maybe they were meant for it. Just keep a level head, don't spend 20 grand on enochian tools just because you got a girl to like you with your first ritual (lol)
2. I wouldn't say that any and all orders that cost money to join or require dues are scams.... that's a bit over the top. Just use good judgment, it's all about what the information is worth to you. All of the orders you mentioned I would agree aren't worth the money.
Other than that I agree with everything. Shadilay
Have you read "the book of grimoires (the secret grammar of magic) by Claude Lecouteux translated by Jon E Graham, and do you recommend it?
I would like to hear your thoughts on Michael Bertiaux and the Voudon Gnostic Movement, Voudon in general, and Kenneth Grant's Typhonian OTO.
I need to show to the next person who tries to shove the "Law of Attraction" stuff to me. The more I think of it, LOA is basically just like praying to a God for blessings without taking into account actual work and effort.
If one wanted to get into the occult and never has, where would be a good starting point? I'm currently an atheist but I have been very interested in the old pagan celtic gods, the gods of my ancestors. I dont even know if it is considered occult, regardless im just curious can anyone with experience provide some insight?
is there a way you can contact me via email?? Because Im gonna right a HUGE report for you about what this is all about....but its too much to just post here...It will make sense and Im sure that you will have a deeper understandin...No problem on the inquiry above btw!
yes there is tr1gg3rh@gmail.com thank you!
So the occult is a placebo?
As is all religion and spirituality. That's the point, really. It's a coping mechanism
No...
Christopher Lee warned me not to so I can’t
Could this be why I have more excessive problems with guilt because, I not wisely used LSD I was peer pressured I did not want to in fact, I wanted to sell it or just microdose at most because I knew my mind was not disciplined enough but the peer pressure was so consistent that my will broke after a few weeks of constant peer pressure from my brother. I believe LSD could be used as potentially a spiritual/occult device to assist in a multitude of ways but I also believe it can be equally as destructive and for example should never ever be used as a party drug it's not cociane LSD literally breaks reality in so many ways it is crazily mysterious powerful and vaste.
This is a very old video, but do you believe the rituals can work in the sense it would deviate from the results earned through aligning your phycology and effort in a secular framework in any substantial way? Psychological alignment + effort < Psychological alignment + effort + occult ritual?
I just started watching your newer videos recently mostly about politics an really liked them an the way you speak on the issues of what is going on i can tell your well educated an Versed in many subjects which brings me to my question i wanted to see your older videos because i was interested in your other beliefs of Satanism an yes i am still a Believer in God and pray to him sometimes for help but your views I cannot deny that some things just don't make sense not to say I'm on the tipping point of going a different path I'm just confused .i guess what i am asking you is have you ever gotten results from your Practices of satanism over most Christian or Catholic faith....
all good stuff!
A true occultist questions truth... a true scientist seeks to disprove....
"God choses which one to listen to." I'd say rather... you get IN LINE with the divine will / natrual laws aka the justice card, cause if not. Why would God help anyone who asks him for help, if it's not according to God's will? God expects us to find God, and get in line with God's will & not the opposite way around. I firmly believe that and practising it, so it's a big change in myself that I've been busy with for quite some time now. It's hard to "adjust" (atleast for me) but still I keep trying until the chatter stops of what I WANT to be true vs what is actually true.
So you're your god's bitch? What a healthy relationship. Whatever floats your boat
the subconscious and fleeing thoughts do often come to reality. it's the way too consciously implant the thought into the subconscious with out thinking about it too much. I've found it's like quantum observation. I think some occult things were methods to achieve this to manifest intention. I don't know how to achieve this but would love to learn. I've observed many times that a unconscious fleeing thought the event happens quite fast after.
I just want to clarify I'm looking to see if anyone else has had similar experiences. I'm not quite sure how to explain it but it's just a thought that pops in and out of your head with out you really every noticing our thinking about it and directly after the event happens
do you have and suggestions or videos dealing with this styx or any advised readings??
I know exactly what you're talking about
While I respect your thought process I must say that you can't possibly know whether a person who has ever used a ouija board could be possessed or not. You'd have to investigate such reports to even come close to approaching the truth. To say something like that authoritatively is wrong. It's speculation at best. Anecdotally, I have a very close friend who knew a person who had become possessed after using it. She started speaking in a different voice, telling people their own secrets she wouldnt have known, and curing at everyone. She stayed like this for two weeks, and was quite traumatized by the experience.
The 3 wise men were occultists in a sense... they studied the heavens and they knew to follow the star
That's a pretty shallow view of Christian prayer. When I was a kid, my mom always told me to say prayers for other people: my grandparents, my friends, other family, etc. It was never, ever put out as a sort of path to prosperity. Indeed, even a cursory understanding of Jesus' philosophy would reveal that to pray for material riches is inherently contradictory (blessed are the poor, etc.). The goal is to build up internal riches, i.e. leading a moral/ethical life. For wealth, gold, lucre, etc., is only of this world while internal riches, i.e. the pearl of great price, last eternally. When one does pray for oneself, the more traditional prayer telos is forgiveness, mercy. A good example, one of the most common prayers said around the world, is the Orthodox Jesus prayer: "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner."
Now, more people may pray for material things than pray out of a genuine sense of contrition, but that speaks more to our own outsized desire for material things than it does to prayer. What is a prayer? A prayer is a hope. No one should expect that their prayer must be answered, for then God would be some sort of ontological vending machine. But believing that God has infinite mercy, they can pray (hope) for mercy and forgiveness. People want to be good, but invariably we all do bad things. Without an outlet for our guilt, a sense of absolution, the bad that we do can eat away at us.
Watching a little further into your video, I see you using the prosperity gospel as an example of Christian teaching. I'm not one to call something heretical, as I try to look at things from a non-judgmental, apophatic mode, but man, the prosperity gospel theology really tests me ability to not call something a heresy.

let me explain the occult is esoteric for a reason because it cant be manipulated other then that its a double edged sword x
Great video, looking handsome as always :)

Man where have you been in my life? Love your vibe and great points. People gotta understand magic starts with shifting your beliefs and perceptions to initiate change. The change is internal not external, and you really express that well.
the modern mystery school is like that
Is there a way to just study the Occult to help one become wiser toward spiritual enlightenment without all the communicating with entities or using magic to give them power stuff? What about just trying to "know thyself"?
Meditation is probably the most basic way you can do that. It doesn't have to be about anything with the Occult or not. Meditation is one of the best things you can do for yourself just in general. Including as far as getting to know one's self better.
The Cocktail Critic
ya it's called what every true Adept goes through first it's called Intiation. Those who have not have no clue what their taking about and said to say it are posers. Intiation is extremely hard that's why I bet most have not made it through. They read books and deside ok ya I'm a Magi.NOT It can be done in a lifetime but you need to be hardcore disciplined.Think something like seal training. Make sure it's really what you want. You'll realised that being all spiritual is not what you imagine it to be. The reason is it truely comes with alot of responsibility. Something a guy with just a jacket on and long hair would not know what his talking about
* enlil For an uninitiate, could you explain a little more what you mean? I want to know.
Not sure what you like to know. Theirs alot of things we think we would like. Then we do it we do not like it. That's because are perception of that thing has no actual fact in reality. The Occult means hidden for a reason. This is guarded because this is something that can be very dangerous and so must be respected. Take for your example being a bar tender, or cocktail expert like yourself. People are like he probably gets all the girls. So then that's why they get into it. So they start making cocktails. They start to see you have to study alot, you have to practice alot, you have to scarifice things. So they skip all that cause they're hearts only in it for the girls. Their additute sucks cause their unhappy their drinks suck, cause they don't know what their doing.. In the end they get no girls cause their unhappy and their drinks taste bad. People cling on to the Occult because they think this all about getting power(girls) or for their own EGO.They read some books on how to ride a motorcycle and then think they can ride a motorcycle. Ultimately they do it and find out not like that at all. When you want something of spiritual power you will be tempted by negative spiritual power. This means you have to scarifice alot expecialy desires. Or even worst control when you will eat your favourite cake or not, instead of just turning and walking away from it. To be the president is the same right. He has alot of power kind of but not really unless he knows how to work the system. He has a whole country full of family's young and old who NOW count on him. He can eathier improve lives our destoy them. Are you sure you really you want that kind power. Or better yet if you get that power will you become a Hitler or a Benjamin Franklin. The thing is you don't decide the will of the Universe Will. This is guarded by the most despicable demons and most high guardian angels. All I saying is make sure that's what you want. If so expect for it to be hard ,expect to fail, expect to hurt. Not everyone s a Navy Seal correct because of boot camp. Intiation is boot camp. They are also many paths but not all paths are right or rightous. Avoid anything you have to make an oath to.
Your body is a temple, you don't decide whether you become enlighten the God of the temple does.
You cannot teach without being a student first.

What if I am in a dark period of my life and I want to explore occult ritualism as a therapeutic option? I'm your typical atheist asshole type of guy was raised muslim but thankfully got out of it. I just miss that spirituality, that powerful feeling of purpose when in the mosque, doing the praying together. There was a period a couple of years ago, I was 19-20ish, I was homeless and out of desperation I picked up a bible, started sitting in church all day and reading it. I prayed that god would give me a sign to let me know this path was worthwhile. The only thing that happened was a half-liter tabasco bottle that was in my rucksack broke (probably cause I put it on the ground to brutally when i came to sit down). when the church was about to close and stood up to go i saw the pool of tabasco on the floor under my rucksack. what a mess. when cleaning out my bag in a public toilet i cut myself on the shards of the glass and tabasco entered my wounds, hurting a lot! My secularism was still strong as ever so i explained it away as just bad luck. since then I've come to think maybe i can't possibly with my brain really believe in a deity or anything, but I'd still like to consider the posibillity of there being a therapeutic value in performing rituals, (of course, not expecting any physical things from them, at least I've gotten that far). Is meeting people through ritual groups advisable? Any dangerous things i should look out for? I live in Belgium.
