subdivisions for different shades of purple, but in practice they are interchangeable. indigo indigo is for spiritual healing, for psychic awareness and knowledge of past lives and worlds; it is the colour of the seer. lavender lavender is for dreams and connections with others, on a telepathic level, for awareness of devas and other higher nature spirits and for herb wisdom. violet violet is for clairvoyance, mediumship, spirituality and contact with the evolved self, angelic guides, mysticism and peak experiences. purple candles are best used on thursday. pink pink is the colour of venus in her gentler aspects, for family relationships, affection, friendship matters, children and for the growth of new love and trust, especially after betrayal or a setback. pink rituals are excellent for

and is most powerful for those born under this sign. the moon monday, the day of the moon, is for spells concerning the home, family matters and the influence of the family, especially the mother, children and animals. its prime focus is fertility and all the ebbs and flows of the human body, mind and psyche. it is also potent for protection, especially while travelling, for psychic development, clairvoyance, secrets and meaningful dreams, all sea and garden rituals and for herb magick and healing. although there are moon gods, lunar energies are primarily yin/female/anima in both men and women. moon hour spells are good for bringing unconscious powers to the fore and thus also for gaining magical insights and for bringing wishes into actuality. element: water colour: silver or white (alt

. acute sensitiveness is always associated with genius; the power to perceive the universe accurately, to analyse, coordinate, and judge impressions is the foundation of all great work. an army is but a blundering brute unless its intelligence department works as it should. the magician obtains the transcendental knowledge necessary to an intelligent course of conduct directly in consciousness by clairvoyance and clairaudience; but communication with superior 155 intelligences demands elaborate preparation, even after years of successful performance. it is therefore useful to possess an art by which one can obtain at a moment's notice any information that may be necessary. this art is divination. the answers to one's questions in divination are not conveyed directly but through the medium

roviding five major points of contact with the tangible world, but it also enables a man to register sensitively the subtler worlds, and, when energised and controlled by the soul, the spiritual realms stand wide open also. the etheric body is a potent receiver of impressions, which are conveyed to the human consciousness through the medium of the awakened centres. there is, for instance, no true clairvoyance until either the solar plexus or the ajna centre is awakened. these transmitted impressions and information become the incentive whereby conscious activity is initiated. there are many words used to describe these forces and their actuating effects: such as impulses, incentives, influences, potencies, desires, aspirations, and many such terms which are only synonyms for force or energ

ons of life, of overemphasis upon aspects of life which we call phobias, lunacy, etc. i would like to make a suggestion here, which is not possible for me to prove to you, but which the future will substantiate. the major diseases called mental, seldom have anything to do with the mind itself. they are: 1. diseases of the brain. 2. disorders of the solar plexus. 3. astral domination. 4. premature clairvoyance and clairaudience. 5. obsession. 6. absence of mind. 7. soullessness. this is, of course, a wide generalisation and has no reference to that category of diseases in which both mind and brain are involved. the diseases of mystics are also in a different category. these latter diseases involve the brain of course, indicate mental imbalance, produce various types of heart disease and the

ntinue to think in terms of time, it is due to glamour and to the persistence of a powerful thoughtform. it indicates polarisation upon the astral plane; this is the plane upon which leading theosophical writers and psychics have worked, and upon which they have based their writings. they are quite sincere in what they say, but omit to recognise the illusory nature of all findings based on astral clairvoyance. the recognition of a pronounced time factor, and the constant emphasis laid upon timing, are characteristic of all highly developed people in incarnation and of those whose lower, concrete minds are powerful in calibre. children and child-races on the one hand, and those highly advanced people whose abstract minds are functioning (through the medium of the interpretive lower mind, us

clairvoyance. generally speaking, clairvoyance mean the second sight as it is popularly named, or the power of seeing, without the use of the eye, events taking place at a distance and in the past, present or future, or seeing deceased people. very few authors describe this power from a psychological or any other point of view, and that is why it shall be out next task to study the phenomenon of clairvoyance very thoroughly. first of all the magician will realize that there are various kinds of clairvoyance. the principle kind is the inborn capacity of clairvoyance which its bearer has been granted whether in the invisible world already, or which he brought with him from a former into his present existence. this kind of clairvoyance is the best, but very few humans enjoy it, being born cl

se people like this usually end up in a lunatic asylum. a great number of persons who are taken to mental hospitals and who were meddling with spiritualism without a reliable guide can blame their hopeless condition on spiritualism, and it does not matter in the least whether the motives of this study were earnest intentions or mere curiosity or whatever else may have induced them. another kid of clairvoyance that belongs to this group is the forced production of this power with the help of drugs like opium, hashish, peyote, soma, etc. this will be without any interest to the magician, because most of these victims will fall prey to the addiction of these dangerous drugs, which paralyze the ethical and intellectual faculties, the willpower and finally the nervous system, injuring the healt

ual faculties, the willpower and finally the nervous system, injuring the health as well as the development. such cases are recorded by the millions in the orient, but they occur in great numbers in the occident as well as in all the other civilized countries. the magician certainly has the opportunity as long as he has not achieved the necessary maturity of convincing himself of the existence of clairvoyance and other supernatural occurrences in one way or another, but usually and that is the worst of it he does not stop at this conviction; he too may become prey to intoxication and fall into the same condition as so many drug-stricken persons. for this reason i will not describe any method in this work that would tempt the magician to experiment on such things, but i shall only point out

in fact, it seems apparent from laboratory work that conscious effort at determining any psi process at work within oneself will either completely destroy it or greatly diminish its effectiveness. therefore, laboratory experiments have sometimes established, by incredibly laborious tests and veritable mountains of statistics, only slightly better-than-chance evidence of the validity of telepathy, clairvoyance, precognition, and psychokinesis. parapsychologists suggest that their colleagues in the physical sciences resist becoming dogmatic. each generation seems to forget that scientists have had to admit some seemingly impossible facts in the past. electricity, for example, was unknown except through a few sporadic events completely devoid of explanation, such as lightning and the mysterio

erception, or gesp (which he did originate, to encompass both clairvoyance and telepathy, and the later term psi to cover both extrasensory perception and psychokinesis. psi, a term inverted in 1946 by r. h. thouless and b. p. wiesner, was originally divided into the two parts psi-kappa and psi-gamma, for active or projective effects such as psychokinesis, and passive or receptive effects such as clairvoyance. it has since come to signify in a general way the mystery factor in psychic events that cannot be recorded or measured. in his effort to transform the paranormal from occult to scientific, and to make it a respectable subject for university study, rhine disregarded aspects that had anything to do with spirits of the dead, angels, demons, fairies, or ectoplasmic manifestations. he res

alive, are yet "flat" as though reflected on a mirror, rather like a cinematograph film "in this form of descrying, note that you see objects reversed, as to right and left, for which suitable allowance must be made" the use of the phrase "mirror-like vision" is actually a very adequate description. yet this is capable, as development proceeds, of merging into another type of vision-a fullblooded clairvoyance, in which things and people are seen in three dimensions, and as though the seer were not merely watching the scene, but were actually in it. some explained that as "etheric vision" although the actual order documents describe this as the clairvoyance ensuing from astral projection.191 it is not very difficult to make the leap between describing a scried astral vision as mirrorlike, a

h, so clothes evidently obstruct its functioning; this, however, is simply my own private belief. i think a witch by her formulae stimulates it, or possibly creates more of it. they say that witches by constant practice can train their wills to blend this, nerve force, or whatever it is, and that their united wills can project this as a beam of force, or that they can use it in other ways to gain clairvoyance, or even to release the astral body. these practices include increasing and quickening the blood supply, or in other cases slowing it down, as well as the use of will-power; so it is reasonable to believe that it does have some effect. i am not stating that it does. i only record the fact that they attempt these effects, and believe that sometimes they succeed. the only-way to find th
