The Magick.TV Interview

Yesterday I sat down for an interview with the folks at Magick.TV. We talked about my experience with Enochian magick, the approach I take to teaching it in my books, and the differences between how common ritual forms are traditionally taught and my operant field method.


My thanks go out to the folks at the channel - it was a fun interview and hopefully one that will prove informative to viewers as they develop their magical practices.


Enjoy!

I'm just going to be an asshole now although not towards you, but too bad you didn't get to touch on whether Angelic is written from left to right or from right to left :))

The real question if you look into the material is whether you always write it from right to left. There are some cases where you do, but there's also a lot of evidence in the diaries that it's not a general rule.

Ahaaa, so it's one of those "whatever the 'experts' say goes" kinda things :D

Anyway, I just want to say this again: I used your method successfully for preventing earthquakes and reducing their intensity as well as for dramatically lowering temperatures and bringing rain. The difference with respect to weather altering has become evident this year when I decided to go a different route. It's still working although not as drastic as when I used to call on Heptarchy spirits for that. So I don't care what any authority figure who labels your Enochian this way or the other says, since I've outclassed them in practice by far so far.

I never publish anything that I have not tried out myself and been successful with. There are some other authors who completely rearrange stuff and insist that it's right even though I think it's pretty unlikely that they tested it themselves and found it superior to the original in a measurable context.

When somebody comes up with an innovation, tests it, and gets good results I'm completely open to testing it out. That's how science works, after all, and I pride myself on being a good scientific illuminist. On the other hand, if it's just based on assertion and textual analysis I don't see it being of much practical value. There are a lot of pretty patterns that you can derive from magical texts that just don't work.

"This pentacle will actually teleport you from point A to point B (if you buy it from me)!" :D

(Corrected version of my questions)

Hi Scott, how are you?

1. On page 121 of this book, in point 6, do we use both B and C for C, or we use them separately, for ex. We use B only for other goals in tune with zodiacal signs, and C we use for "politics"?

2. Can we use more broaden correspondences for zodiacal signs (not just for those given in 777), forex, to use Aries for power of will, or Libra for balance etc...

3. Do we need topaz or similar device for scrying as described in the book?
