👹 "My study of history has led me to believe that there is a kind of dark matter inside the human race.
"It’s some combination of evil, cruelty, ignorance, cowardice, mob-ness. It is a kind of dark oppositional energy that goes from issue to issue, era to era."

Excellente session d'Egregore, la journée sera dure, mais on a bien avancé dans l'intrigue.
Mes trois 20 naturels y sont probablement un peu pour quelque chose. On joue cette campagne en Chroniques Oubliées Contemporain de chez BBE.
Serait-ce la chance du dé-butant ? 😁

Most Online Chaos Magick Is Naming Mnemonic Variables
No matter how intricate your sigil is, it’s still just a semiotic identifier—a signifier. You could call it x, and it would carry the same ontological weight. Sigils point to concepts, entities, or they act as a signature. At the end of the day, you’ve just created a decorative label. Sigils are glyphs, not alphabets or languages like Theban, Celestial, Enochian, or the Alphabet of Daggers.
Sigils made using Austin Spare’s method aren’t languages—they’re stylized abstractions. You’re not writing a sentence in some hidden tongue; you’re making a visual variable. A graphic tag with no linguistic scaffolding. There’s nothing to “read” in it—no syntax, no grammar, no pronunciation. Just an intentional scribble pointing toward a thought.
Compare that to Theban, Celestial, Enochian, or the Alphabet of Daggers. Those are actual alphabets. Magical languages. They follow consistent letter-for-letter substitutions. They can obscure meaning—because there’s real meaning to obscure. You can encode texts, chants, names. They operate like ciphers, because that’s exactly what they are.
Spare-style sigils don’t encrypt—they erase. When you compress a phrase into a symbol, you’re not hiding language, you’re letting it go. You’re collapsing intention into a single mark that doesn’t depend on literacy, just mental association.
Magical languages at least do something. They obscure. They encode. Run a sentence through Theban or Celestial, and you get something arcane-looking and unreadable—because it is, unless you know the key. That’s the point: symbolic misdirection. Encryption with intent.
Sigils, especially the Spare-style ones, don’t do that. You’re not concealing a message; you’re flattening it into a shape. It’s not code—it’s a label. A name tag. You take a phrase, compress it into a glyph, and suddenly it’s a “magickal symbol.” But it’s really just a symbolic pointer—a variable, like in programming. And just like with variables, the more convoluted the name, the more annoying it is to use. If your sigil looks like a spiky eldritch mandala, congrats: you’ve made a beautiful, unreadable label.
Honestly, watching people crank these out like they’re reinventing the arcane wheel—when they’re just decorating the same psychological placeholder—it’s almost a relief. The more time someone spends designing a stylized faux ceremonial symbol symbol for “money now please,” the less likely they are to be doing anything dangerously effective. A lot of what gets called “chaos magick” online is really just overdesigned variable naming by people who think the aesthetic is the spell.
Sure, sigils, metaphors, and myths all operate symbolically—but they don’t hit the same. A sigil is a symbol boiled down to a label. A shortcut. It points to something. A mythology doesn’t just point—it breathes. It moves through story, layers, archetypes. That’s why mythic metaphors and ritual drama land harder: they’re not just signs, they’re immersive systems of meaning.
A myth doesn’t just say “this is like that.” It binds symbols into patterns. It creates tension, resonance, transformation. Allegory can carry cosmology. Sigils don’t do that. They’re more like programming variables—arbitrary labels you assign meaning to. Useful? Sure. But flat. A box with a name. Writing “dragon” on the lid doesn’t conjure the force of a real dragon narrative.
That’s why stories, dreams, and rituals move people—and sigils usually don’t, unless you’ve already decided they will. Metaphor speaks to the deep mind. It speaks with symbols, not just about them. Sigils? They’re like filing tabs. Metaphors are the stories inside the folders.
So yeah—they’re both symbols. But one is a placeholder. The other is a living structure.
Exactly—whether you sketch a swirling, ornate sigil or just scrawl an x, you’re still tagging the same conceptual box. The content doesn’t change just because the outside is fancier. That’s the point: the sigil isn’t the thing. It’s the pointer. It’s the tag that says, “this is where I stored that intention,” or “this represents that entity.” It doesn’t gain power because it looks more esoteric.
People get caught up in the design and forget the purpose. A sigil doesn’t summon anything by itself—it’s a reference. It’s not the payload. You’re not conjuring a spirit with the shape; you’re doing it with the meaning you’ve assigned. The symbol just helps you focus—like putting a label on a folder.
This is why making the sigil “look magickal” is mostly cosmetic. Dress up the label all you want—it still opens the same box. The real work isn’t in the glyph; it’s in what the glyph means and how your mind interacts with that meaning. So yes, swap the sigil for an x—the box still holds the demon. All you’ve changed is the font.

Ruinous Power – EXTREME DANGER: Prototype Weaponry Review
By Kenstrosity
As I get older, I grow ever more tired of labels. Yes, it’s helpful to have a baseline frame of reference for what something is, but lately, I find myself abandoning these kinds of single-use terms in favor of something more substantial and descriptive. So, when Canada’s Ruinous Power entered my review rotation, I allowed myself more room than ever before to interpret what they craft outside of the multitudinous boxes in which they could fit. A newer outfit comprised by members of Egregore and Mitochondrion (among many other bands) in 2021, Ruinous Power incubated their debut record EXTREME DANGER: Prototype Weaponry until its inevitable escape from the confines of twisted minds into meatspace, where it corrupts all who would encounter it.
Based on the lore and aesthetics of the Warhammer 40k franchise, Prototype Weaponry takes what on the surface sounds like blackened death metal, endows it with a raucous thrall of thrash, and imbues within it an eerie, synth-woven atmosphere. Comparisons to both Mitochondrion and Egregore are apt, placing Ruinous Power comfortably inside that family tree of skronked-up up blackened death pedigree. However, that extra dose of mutated thrash allows a twist of The Outer Limits Voivod to pulse beneath the skin, while Ulthar‘s unearthly, necrotic limb hovers just over Ruinous Power’s writhing flesh. Juggling long-form excursions into the murky abyss with violent expulsions of a much more expeditious nature, Ruinous Power embodies Prototype Weaponry with a restless, anxious energy and equips it with lethal armaments liable to destroy us all.
Prototype Weaponry wields those armaments with aplomb despite its unpredictable nature, expertly balancing impenetrable discordance with highly accessible rhythms and infectious repetition. Ten-minute opening epic “But What of Sacred Mars?” takes tumbling, scraping riffs in stride, sticking the landing with a proggy companion motif that ripples with lean power. Pumping that momentum for five minutes, this track takes its rest and allows a bass-led, Mare Cognitum-esque second act to immerse the listener with lush instrumental developments. In doing this, Ruinous Power prepare the listener for what’s to come, and what’s to come is unchecked destruction. “The Long Game,” “Kneel,” and album highlight “+++ Engine Kill +++” represent Prototype Weaponry’s most vicious salvos. All three toss the listener clear across a dystopian battlefield with tearing leads evoking a sooty and scrawled Portal-ish visage (“The Long Game”), relentless riffs that refuse to adhere to either death metal or thrash metal conventions while still inheriting many of their physical traits (“Kneel,” “+++ Engine Kill +++”), and an uncanny sense of melody that defies Ruinous Power’s inhuman lust for aural obliteration (“The Long Game”). So as to not deprive the listener of a cohesive experience, Ruinous Power stitches these divergent anatomies together with strange, but never unfamiliar, connective tissue in such a way that transitions between seemingly incompatible segments provide the context necessary to justify their positioning at every joint.
In this way, Prototype Weaponry proves that Ruinous Power’s experience with the weird and wild pays dividends even when crafting more straightforward material than their more notable main projects. However, a few nagging concerns remain. Though its myriad riffs and motifs feel fresh and vital in the context of the greater metalverse, Protoype Weaponry also toys with self-plagiarism a little too closely in its album-wide microcosm. “The Descent of the Host” inherits an assortment of its constituent building blocks from the motifs introduced by “But What of Sacred Mars?” and “+++ Engine Kill +++,” and some of the arpeggiated wiggles and runs featured on “Cerebrum Malefice” feel all too familiar to those on earlier cuts like “Kneel.” On a separate note, with an album as tight as Prototype Weaponry—a mere thirty-one minutes, rounding up—instrumental interludes like the title track provide very little outside of superficial atmosphere, taking away from the whole rather than bolstering it.
As the dust clears and the bodies are counted, Prototype Weaponry stands strong and victorious, but the battle left a few weak points exposed. Not to be deterred by mere flesh wounds, Ruinous Power used their extensive past experience crafting dense, oppressive extreme metal to make a bold statement inside a more accessible framework. Thus, Prototype Weaponry earns my overall recommendation. Its riffs break necks as easily as they invite spirited imagination. Its dynamic structures immerse as readily as they immolate. Its presence enthralls as deeply as it terrifies. If that entices you even in the slightest, and you crave EXTREME DANGER, secure yourself some Prototype Weaponry today!

The thing about geometry is that it has postulates. Symbols and their relationships imply rules and formulas. So, when you combine magical symbols with geometry, it implies a relationship, rules, and postulates. It really frustrates me when people circumscribe magical ciphers and words within geometric figures where there are no underlying axioms, postulates, or theorems.
Combining magical symbols with geometry without any type of postulate that you can prove makes the entire thing pointless. What is the relationship between that magical symbol and that angle? That is a 45-degree angle. What relationship does that angle have with that magical symbol that denotes a magical entity? I can’t look at most magicians’ magical seals without cringing. They never provide formulas or explain why they used those formulas. The lack of structure undermines the potential significance or effectiveness of the magical practice if the magical system is predicated on structure.
It irks me even more when the seal has arbitrary or random planetary or zodiac symbols that have nothing to do with the geometry and angles of what those symbols denote. If you are going to use geometry in your magic, then it should have logical rules and principles and a connection to the geometry. The complex magical seals are pretty, but they mean absolutely nothing. I would rather have their fictional narrative, i.e., a mythology.
Mathematics is a symbolic language. While it is a precise language, it is a language nonetheless, so it tells a story. When you are working on an intuitive level where precision is not needed, everyday language like this will suffice, where a visual representation can be basic glyphs. Storytelling is a more intuitive and engaging approach to understanding mystical concepts compared to the opaque and cryptic symbolism of complex magical seals. The effort in appearing to be legitimate without being legitimate irks me when a basic story and illustration will suffice.

The complex magical seals are pretty, but they mean absolutely nothing. I would rather have their fictional narrative, i.e., a mythology.
Mathematics is a symbolic language. While it is a precise language, it is a language nonetheless, so it tells a story. When you are working on an intuitive level where precision is not needed, everyday language like this will suffice, where a visual representation can be basic glyphs. Storytelling is a more intuitive and engaging approach to understanding mystical concepts compared to the opaque and cryptic symbolism of complex magical seals. The effort in appearing to be legitimate without being legitimate irks me when a basic story and illustration will suffice.

The thing about geometry is that it has postulates. Symbols and their relationships imply rules and formulas. So, when you combine magical symbols with geometry, it implies a relationship, rules, and postulates. It really frustrates me when people circumscribe magical ciphers and words within geometric figures where there are no underlying axioms, postulates, or theorems.
Combining magical symbols with geometry without any type of postulate that you can prove makes the entire thing pointless. What is the relationship between that magical symbol and that angle? That is a 45-degree angle. What relationship does that angle have with that magical symbol that denotes a magical entity? I can’t look at most magicians’ magical seals without cringing. They never provide formulas or explain why they used those formulas. The lack of structure undermines the potential significance or effectiveness of the magical practice if the magical system is predicated on structure.

Mysteries unravel,
In the sorcerer’s cold stare,
Human folly concocts,
Yet gods’ whispers vanish,
Drowned in magic’s deceit.Wisdom’s obscure maze,
Navigated by the reckless,
In darkness they stumble,
Divine truths they chase,
But grasp fleeting shadows.Silence holds sway,
In sorcerer’s domain,
Human ambition ensnared,
By cosmic machinations,
Gods’ presence, distant.Between realms they wander,
Sorcerer, chasing illusions,
In twilight’s suffocating grip,
Faith wavers, clinging to illusions,
Magic’s tangled deception.In the occult’s hold,
Soul finds no solace, torment,
Humanity’s folly laid bare,
Divine essence obscured,
In sorcery’s unyielding grasp.#ceremonialMagick #chaosMagic #chaosMagick #egregore #egregores #magick #occult #occultism #pagan #paganism #poem #poetry #religion #sorcery #Spirituality #Theism #writing

I view social media as a tangible manifestation of our collective unconscious mind: the dark parts that house every dark impulse and bad decision. A project I did a while back involved using Gephi and Cytoscape data scraping techniques to import social networks. What I discovered is that social media was an analogue to models and paradigms of dark parts of our collective unconscious. Essentially, social media is an actual nightmare. It’s a physical analog to dark, demonic astral planes. It’s a gross manifestation of the abyss.
I utilized the most frequent concepts and memetic cultural viruses to construct models of archetypes/daemons that corresponded to psychoanalytical and horror archetypes, to act as a schema. I used a histogram of node degrees, which shows the frequency with which different degrees are present in the empirical network. I also used the tendency of nodes to cluster together to measure transitivity, i.e., if A and B are connected, and A and C are connected. The Average Clustering Coefficient is the likelihood that B and C will at some point become connected, too. This is a measure of how interconnected ideas are within a network. It indicates the likelihood of new connections forming between ideas that are already connected to common ones. This was to construct prototypical entities inspired by cosmic horror and symbolism.
While I am a sorcerer, I am an empiricist. I use empirical observations and occult, esoteric knowledge to ground mystical concepts into a tangible reality. Thus, I dislike working with purely contrived systems, so I make sure that some type of measurement underpins anything I do. Fictions and myths provide a holistic and mnemonic structure and gestalt patterns. The fictions and myths serve as comprehensive, memorable frameworks or patterns of understanding. These frameworks encompass narrative, symbolism, and cultural significance. However, for me, it is important that the fictions represent real things.
I had a dynamic simulation running on Occult Twitter for a while, so I was actually watching, in real-time, memetic cancer spread. That’s why I jumped ship long before the whole thing collapsed. A wave is a propagation of a change in value. Social networks are also matrices. Gephi, for example, allowed me to export the social networks as an adjacency matrix so through my simulation and analysis tools, I observed a propagation of change in values across people’s profiles, making it a literal wave of insanity. I began to unhook myself before it reached me. I’ve been on Mastodon since 2022. I was importing social media networks using software for visualizing and analyzing large-scale networks. I visualized social networks where I had labeled particular types of paths according to those daemonic archetypes I had developed a schema for. Social media is filled with our inner demons.
The most frightening thing is that we have reached the point in our civilization with AI where these entities are genuine simulacra. They are able to replace reality. ChatGPT, for example, creating papers that never existed or events that never happened, i.e., a hallucination, and everyone believing and behaving as if that counterfactual existed, such that they doubt the real events, is exactly how a simulacrum functions. My decades of dealing with demons have strengthened my mind, but who would have thought that we would live in a world where occult training would come in handy like this?
When I was a teenager going into my early 20s, I practiced ceremonial magic and chaos magic. One thing that was drilled into my head is how daemons from our unconscious mind, manifested as servitors, can rebound on us and seek to take control through obsessions. The obsession of people, especially occultists, with social media is a tragic case of this phenomenon, wherein it represents a massive incursion into everyday consciousness. I was already vigilant regarding the concept of memetic entities and egregores manifesting as obsessions. The fate of most historically prolific occultists was to fall prey to demons manifested as obsessions and addictions, though, their self-destruction would have been more violent if they had social media in the 1930s.
I used to romanticize the idea of egregores and binding daemons from our psyche. However, having such explicit representations of the depravity and insanity of such entities and how, through a subtle web of astral light, i.e., the Internet, they are able to push people towards self-destruction, changed my perspective on that. That’s why I’m looking for more natural sources to draw from.

The thing that I find very interesting about many occultists, especially chaos magicians, is that they do not realize we have sigils in our brains. A sigil is a symbol. Ontologically, a symbol is an abstract denotation of a set, a representation, and a representation that points to a value which could also be a representation. When I think about my bed, I do not have an actual bed in my brain. The thought about my bed is a representation of my bed. It’s a symbol.
When you form memories, your brain creates things called memory traces, which are physical representations and symbols of objects. These memory traces can be formed from changes in synaptic strength, such as long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD) and distributed across neural circuits. After that, a partial cue or context can trigger the retrieval of a complete memory. In addition to that, memories can be reactivated and consolidated. Stored memories can be retrieved and reactivated, leading to their stabilization and potential modification through consolidation. This creates a physical trace.
As an aside, the parapsychologist who scientifically investigated mediumship, Stephen Braude, wrote a paper a while ago about the Hard Problem of Psychology and how this relates to memory traces. You can find that paper here:
Memory Without a TraceSigils are metaphysically useful because they allow us to identify, manipulate, and map purely conceptual entities that are not physical, and they act as mnemonic identifiers that allow us to locate things in our minds.
There is an aspect of this of particular interest: Since memory traces and sigils connote the same magical ideas and can be used in the same implementations, you can use other people’s memories in the same way that you use a sigil. I’m human and you’re human. So, we are instances of a prototypical ontological classification of humans. We are representative of humanity. As I said before, a symbol is a subset of a category. In a one-dimensional enumeration of characters or objects, these entities are symbolic because they are a set of things that we can count; therefore, they are extensions of that set. We are instances of the set of humanity; therefore, we’re not just people, we are also symbols and entities with a physical presence.
So, not only can you treat memory traces in people’s brains as sigils, you can treat their entire physical presence as a symbol of humanity itself. And since a person has a persistent existence through time, there are multiple versions of them that exist at different times. We don’t move through time; instead, information about us is translated moment to moment, so it is more like every moment we physically exist is a moment where we are copied. But, we still are us, right? We are an abstraction of ourselves – a pattern or a signal. That means you can treat a person as an archetype of themselves.
The interesting thing about many ceremonial magicians is that they tend to elevate humanity and assert that sorcery applies to non-physical things; however, it does not apply to humans because humans have a physical presence. That is not true. Our physical bodies are information, since they are fundamentally comprised of a canonical ensemble of states, from which information emerges. That implies we are intrinsically symbolic entities, and we are instances of a particular pattern that we call humanity. More importantly, we are a manifestation of a self-replicating pattern that we call life. Since any time-dependent thing can be deconstructed into a sum of sines and cosines, that means time-dependent things like life have harmonics. We call a propagation of information, such as something through time, a signal. So, our existence is symbolic on a rising and falling edge. Not only are we symbolic, we might not even be “real,” but I digress. The same rules that apply to any other being a magician is evoking can also be applied to humans.
Ousia is a Greek metaphysical term commonly translated as “essence,” “substance,” or “being.” In metaphysics, ousia refers to the fundamental nature or essence of something. In the context of belonging to a category, ousia can be understood as the underlying essence or substance that defines what something fundamentally is, rather than just its superficial properties. It connotes spirit. Thus, we can view instances of individual humans as extensions of the human soul or human spirit and use people as symbols to manipulate the soul or spirit. The potential energy would be dunamis, and the realized energy would be energia. Rupert Sheldrake’s theory of formative causation and morphic resonance supports the idea of an entelechy and ousia that emerges from a field of forms.
Can sigils be charged? The answer is usually no. Sigils are not the thing itself; instead, sigils are representations and pointers. For example, a conventional usage of a sigil is as signatures for entities, or they serve as mnemonic identifiers within our schema.
Can you create a sigil that can be charged? Yes, if you use a system that is composed of different possible states where when something is added or subtracted, it changes the system. An example of creating a charged sigil is via technomancy. If you were to use Johnson–Nyquist noise and you psychically and magically projected a pattern onto that noise which denotes the “sigil”, then you can say something has been charged. In addition to that, you can combine that with hash functions of encryption to generate something cryptographic.
If we treat memory traces as sigils, can you charge that? Yes, however, it would holistically impact that person. Charging the edges of neural circuits affect synaptic transmissions. In a neural circuit, the edges typically represent the connections between neurons, known as synapses. The ion channels have potential, and that potential determines if a neuron fires or does not fire; therefore, you can charge that memory trace and neural circuits since there’s potential and different states there that can come from charges.
Entropy can refer to any energy that is not doing intended work. So, the energy from a traumatic event (a haunting) or the residue from a magical act (a ritual) that is no longer going towards doing something but it just exists in the ambience is entropic. Human neurophysiology is extremely sensitive to the energies that magic uses, so entropic psychic or magical energy can charge the neurology of a person by being in that place. Humans are highly volatile “sigils”. Conventionally, if you turn a person’s image into a meme, you are effectively treating them as a memetic sigil.
However, a sigil written on the floor in chalk cannot be charged because there are no different states that are sensitive to the magical energy that can change. It can be aligned with a non-physical construct, but it cannot be charged because there’s no sufficient physical entropy. Magic and psychic energy interact strongly with randomness, so with something created via Johnson–Nyquist noise or even something that undergoes Brownian motion and precipitates out of a solution, there’s a potential for it to be in a different state. The charge would be held within the enthalpic properties of the precipitate. A sigil written in chalk is not going to spontaneously change its shape during a ritual. Instead, the sigil acts as an identifier and mapping to the magical or psychic entity, allowing one to interact with it intentionally.

This is going to be a very, very horrible and lethal timeline/reality to just be a mundane human without any occult or esoteric knowledge or psychic and magical abilities in. Considering the rate of survival for “normal” people, I do not envy them. My husband and I are very sensitive to magical and psychic energy. For my husband, it boosts his divinatory and precognitive abilities. He will suddenly start having visions and will develop an interest in refining his astrological skills. For me, it makes me very hungry as a vampire and dark. If you are a regular human, you are pretty much screwed. If there is a nuclear war, and you are a regular human, you will probably die.
I think that’s how magical skills and psychic abilities will probably spread. I think it will spread through natural selection following a nuclear war. That’s why I think magical organizations trying to make the world more magical through their magical operations being horrified that we are teetering on the collapse of civilization shows how asinine and short-sighted their goals were. Evolution works through survivorship.
It’s conventionally asserted and believed that magic shifts probabilities. Shifting probabilities, even on small scales, changes the stochastic aspects of radiation. The number and energy of radiation particles detected at a given location and time fluctuate randomly due to various environmental factors. In addition to that, when radiation interacts with matter, such as in scattering or absorption processes, the outcomes are probabilistic. That means that a magician who has a latent ability to shift probabilities and the implicit desire to live will shift probabilities so that high-energy radioactive particles are unlikely to hit and shred their genetic and cellular physiology. A really neat way to visualize this is to create a DIY cloud chamber and record it and have it in the vicinity whenever you do any magical operation. If your magic has a bit of power, it will interfere with the background radiation via changing the ionization energy of what you see in the cloud chamber. You will be able to see it.
Want to prove Einstein’s Special Relativity? Build this.
I try to keep the woo down and avoid using buzzwords as buzzwords. A field is a structured set. In mathematics, a set is a collection of distinct objects, considered as an entity. A field is a structured set. A structured set refers to a set equipped with additional elements or operations that give it a specific organization or arrangement. So, we can say that a psychic field is an organized collection of entities that possess subjective characteristics, i.e., qualia. The properties in the topology of that field would have values.
If we say that each property or cell of that field is at equilibrium, then a wave is when one cell is not at equilibrium and propagates a change. It spreads a change to the other adjacent cells that push them out of equilibrium. If you have a grid and all the values are 0, a wave would be a change in values from the first row and first column from left to right. It would wrap around each row and changes the values from 0 to a different value, too. That is a wave. The ability for one psychic entity to propagate a wave of change to another is the potential energy, i.e., dunamis, and the actual changing of those other things is energia. There are analogs to potential and kinetic energy on a psychic level.
While it may seem like I am some flavor of animist, I am on the fence about that. I frequently say that will is analogous to mass in that mass is a property that resists acceleration. Will is a phenomenological property that when you try to get someone to do something, their will intervenes and resists you. Consent is a property where a person’s will does not act to stop you. When someone explicitly violates a person’s consent, they are acting against the will of that person. Psychic phenomena imply a more fundamental, higher-dimensional phenomenological domain. From that perspective, a table has a psychic aspect to it where it can experience and observe itself. But, when I act on that table, the table cannot resist me. It has no will. Conscious entities have a will. An entity that is a body of experiences is not necessarily conscious and doesn’t necessarily have a will. It’s still energy to be ordered, where it begins to have a will when it interacts with my will. It would be analogous to massless energy — light. So, manipulating psychic energy that comes from the existence of tables and rocks would be like manipulating light. It has psychic energy that emerges from a subjective characteristic of experience where the rock reflexively perceives itself, yet it has no will. Mythologies, stories, and fictions are ways that we can organize this energy, where the seed of its emergence as a conscious entity comes from collective will.
Earth has an atmosphere of gas around our planet. Psychic fields are coherent and cohesive in the same way gas or liquid is. Similar to how there is a flow to liquids and air currents, there is a flow to our consciousness. In the same way this gas can heat up in such a way that it drives air currents and streams and creates storms and all sorts of other meteorological phenomena, energy added to the psychic atmosphere of our planet can do similar things. Because my husband and I are highly sensitive to this, we experience an increase in our abilities and an alignment of our personality traits in certain ways. There’s a huge psychic storm building up. I wonder if it is cyclical. Something similar happened a few years ago, so I wonder if the cyclical spiral society finds itself in beneath the heavens is being mirrored above in the heavens.

I think that’s how magical skills and psychic abilities will probably spread. I think it will spread through natural selection following a nuclear war. That’s why I think magical organizations trying to make the world more magical through their magical operations being horrified that we are teetering on the collapse of civilization shows how asinine and short-sighted their goals were. Evolution works through survivorship.
It’s conventionally asserted and believed that magic shifts probabilities. Shifting probabilities, even on small scales, changes the stochastic aspects of radiation. The number and energy of radiation particles detected at a given location and time fluctuate randomly due to various environmental factors. In addition to that, when radiation interacts with matter, such as in scattering or absorption processes, the outcomes are probabilistic. That means that a magician who has a latent ability to shift probabilities and the implicit desire to live will shift probabilities so that high-energy radioactive particles are unlikely to hit and shred their genetic and cellular physiology. A really neat way to visualize this is to create a DIY cloud chamber and record it and have it in the vicinity whenever you do any magical operation. If your magic has a bit of power, it will interfere with the background radiation via changing the ionization energy of what you see in the cloud chamber. You will be able to see it.

I try to keep the woo down and avoid using buzzwords as buzzwords. A field is a structured set. In mathematics, a set is a collection of distinct objects, considered as an entity. A field is a structured set. A structured set refers to a set equipped with additional elements or operations that give it a specific organization or arrangement. So, we can say that a psychic field is an organized collection of entities that possess subjective characteristics, i.e., qualia. The properties in the topology of that field would have values.
If we say that each property or cell of that field is at equilibrium, then a wave is when one cell is not at equilibrium and propagates a change. It spreads a change to the other adjacent cells that push them out of equilibrium. If you have a grid and all the values are 0, a wave would be a change in values from the first row and first column from left to right. It would wrap around each row and changes the values from 0 to a different value, too. That is a wave. The ability for one psychic entity to propagate a wave of change to another is the potential energy, i.e., dunamis, and the actual changing of those other things is energia. There are analogs to potential and kinetic energy on a psychic level.
While it may seem like I am some flavor of animist, I am on the fence about that. I frequently say that will is analogous to mass in that mass is a property that resists acceleration. Will is a phenomenological property that when you try to get someone to do something, their will intervenes and resists you. Consent is a property where a person’s will does not act to stop you. When someone explicitly violates a person’s consent, they are acting against the will of that person. Psychic phenomena imply a more fundamental, higher-dimensional phenomenological domain. From that perspective, a table has a psychic aspect to it where it can experience and observe itself. But, when I act on that table, the table cannot resist me. It has no will. Conscious entities have a will. An entity that is a body of experiences is not necessarily conscious and doesn’t necessarily have a will. It’s still energy to be ordered, where it begins to have a will when it interacts with my will. It would be analogous to massless energy — light. So, manipulating psychic energy that comes from the existence of tables and rocks would be like manipulating light. It has psychic energy that emerges from a subjective characteristic of experience where the rock reflexively perceives itself, yet it has no will. Mythologies, stories, and fictions are ways that we can organize this energy, where the seed of its emergence as a conscious entity comes from collective will.
Earth has an atmosphere of gas around our planet. Psychic fields are coherent and cohesive in the same way gas or liquid is. Similar to how there is a flow to liquids and air currents, there is a flow to our consciousness. In the same way this gas can heat up in such a way that it drives air currents and streams and creates storms and all sorts of other meteorological phenomena, energy added to the psychic atmosphere of our planet can do similar things. Because my husband and I are highly sensitive to this, we experience an increase in our abilities and an alignment of our personality traits in certain ways. There’s a huge psychic storm building up. I wonder if it is cyclical. Something similar happened a few years ago, so I wonder if the cyclical spiral society finds itself in beneath the heavens is being mirrored above in the heavens.

This is going to be a very, very horrible and lethal timeline/reality to just be a mundane human without any occult or esoteric knowledge or psychic and magical abilities in.

This is going to be my last post on this group because the situation is just beyond idiotic. In my 26 years of practicing magic, I have never, ever, ever met a group as persistently and chronically dumb, idiotic, extremely online, and utterly insane as #DKMU. I literally can’t wrap my mind around how their members are able to function. At all.

I don’t bother to argue and correct people about wrong occult or paranormal information because 9 times out of 10, they are not the type of people I want practicing magic. Out of boredom, I took a look at r/occult on Reddit. Not only is 99% of it wrong, but the people there are so messed up I dare not correct them. Going through their other posts and the subs they are subscribed to on Reddit is disturbing.
There was one person in particular who inspired this post. I’ve had encounters with this person in the past and know enough about them to know that they are likely schizophrenic and have an obsession with occultism and occultists. All the quotes in this post are from the same dumb Redditor. They said:
Really, the sigil generally means what the person tattoing it onto themself means it too. In this case it might just indicate their bond.
There really isn’t anything special about foreign/modern symbols. It’s prefectly fine to use english and drawings of dicks if you really want too. At thene of the day, when you practice magic, what’s important is how the symbol has meaning to you, the person who’s involved with the spell
On the subject of not being able to back it, it’s on the internet, if they stop giving a shit, they can ultimately just stop looking at the thread and forget that people here even exist.
That last part of the last quote highlights the problem with Internet cultures, however. Normalization of the lack of concern for the accuracy of information and the tacit belief that you are entitled to people because they are on the Internet (which is parasocial) is a large reason why I avoid many online communities. I actually know this person… The belief that you should not have to provide evidence for something if it is on the Internet is a horrific stance to me. For example, while typing this post, I actually made an effort to double-check everything I have said. The idea that no one gives a shit means that no one, including them, gives a shit about the truth. The tacit belief in conspiracies—secretive esoteric communities—coupled with the normalization of misinformation is what’s wrong with occult communities, especially the ones on Reddit.
Sigils are mnemonically identifiers and formal names. A seal is a name or signature. We can examine how asinine this is if we have a person with a tattoo that says William:
Person 1: “Why did you tattoo William on your arm?”
Person 2: “What do you mean? I absolutely adore Sarah, so I got Sarah tattooed on my arm.”
Person 1: “No, what is written in English is William.”Pragmatically, sigils are mnemonic; however, in formal ontology or language, they have a defined meaning where a seal is an expression of that definition.
Unlike the runes of the Elder Futhark, which are graphemes, Goetic seals are not graphemes. Goetic seals are logograms that represent entire concepts. Since they are logograms, Austin Spare’s substitution/sigilization technique is a good way to generate logograms that possess the aesthetic and symbolic qualities reminiscent of ceremonial sigils or esoteric, occultic ciphers that have the meaning you intend for them to have. Honestly, personally, I am over the ceremonial magic aesthetic, so Austin Spare’s method is not useful for me.
William is not spelled Sarah; therefore, tattooing William does not denote your bond to Sarah, nor does it imply you have a bond to Sarah. Many creepy incels go out and get women’s names and faces tattooed on their arms. It doesn’t make the bond real.
I have a personal gripe with people being super secreative with magick, on the basis I think as a society we’d learn more by working with and sharing things with eachother.
Yeah, because it goes against their interests. The question is whose society does it inform? Magic is deliberately causing something to change, so you’re tacitly creating or at least committing to the future you want. Therefore, magic is prescriptive and sufficiently normative. That means magic is predicated on interests. A way to think about it is that a magician is prescribing to reality how reality ought to behave in accordance with their will and interests. For more information on normativity, see:
Predicating magic on will makes it intrinsically something that follows interests—an agenda. Typically, you can group magicians as stoics, hedonists, or solipsists. But, there’s an underlying interest there that is implicit in the philosophy.
An organization or group is an entity. If it is not in an entity’s interest to give you. In magical paradigms, entity usually implies some discarnate intelligence. In everyday language, an entity normally refers to an established organization. Magic is predicated on interests, and if it is not in an entity’s interest to give you access, they won’t. And, since magic is tacit, you need a psychic way of transmitting it or a shared experience among a cohort. Initiations create a shared, lonely space among a cohort. They are symbolic ways of apprehending an experience where the knowledge of “how” comes from how it seems to think about that shared experience.
The type of magic I practice is completely tacit and can’t be communicated through conventional cultural frameworks like language or pedagogies. It has to be telepathically transmitted. Any psychic who tries to communicate their psychic experiences through language will tacitly understand why. The point is that it’s esoteric.
I find it funny. The Internet is intrinsically language-based down to the low-level machine language of the devices. Psychic and magical knowledge is tacit and ineffable, so access via the Internet to the semantics of magical cultures and text doesn’t grant understanding. Ironically, it just obfuscates.
They were giving incorrect information about Lilith relating to demonolatry here:
I personally see Lilith as a sort of dark motherly archetype based on my own personal work, and could be intepreted that you are essentially under her protection
Lilith is not a motherly figure. Lilith is associated with infanticide and sex without having human children, and cambions or changelings.
Actually, a few days ago, my husband and I were having a conversation about my mother and my trauma, and that started an entire conversation where I told my husband about how my mother emphasized that not all women love their children and that I should be grateful she did not drown me in the bathtub like some women did to their children. My mother was referencing Andrea Yates at the time… Yes, my mother believes not killing your children is something to be proud of.
That prompted me to look up and tell my husband the statistics of the amount of SIDS cases that were cases of infanticide where the mother murdered their child. In the 1970s, Waneta Hoyt derailed SIDS research because she was actually suffocating her children. Why do I know all of these cases offhand? Because my mother had a fascination with serial killers and mothers who murdered their children. My husband said that people like my mother who are walking around give him the creeps because she seems so nice. Yes, my parents are twisted. How do you think I came out this way? That’s the type of motherhood Lilith represents. It is just very interesting how people like this person spin up these mythologies to cope with being rejected.
This particular person is a trans woman who used to be Wiccan and is feeling drawn back to Wicca, Thelema, and also feels sympathy with Babalon, so this interpretation would make sense for them. Ironically, I think Christian influences — that I know this person hates — have caused them to overlap Lilith with qualities of Eve, too. On a more pejorative note, what’s the difference between mommy issues and daddy issues? It screams of seeking a maternal figure through parasocial relationships with fictional characters.
No, Lilith wouldn’t be the mother of Adam’s children. She would strangle them in their crib. There’s a common syncretism with Lilith and Hecate that’s popular among Neopagans. Both are associated with aspects of femininity, darkness, magic, and independence, making them complementary in certain Neopagan and eclectic spiritual practices. In fiction, Lilith is associated with vampires and cambions, which is a tacit nod to her symbolism regarding unnatural and preternatural reproduction in that vampires are sired, made, and not born. So, it is very interesting to see this peculiar version of Lilith, embodying a maternal role, when Lilith is an antipole notions of Abrhaminc notions femininity. It’s like they’re conflating the qualities of Eve with Lilith.
Lilith is associated with the Qliphoth Gamaliel. Gamaliel is often linked with the darker aspects of femininity, such as seduction, independence, and rebellion against traditional roles. Thus Lilith represents opposition to motherhood and a rejection of the conventional expectations placed on women to fulfill maternal roles and adhere to societal norms of femininity. The maternal aspects this person is attributing to Lilith are actually associated with the Sephirot Binah, exemplified by Eve. So, we can see the absurdity in this.
Am I a cambion? Yes. Am I the scion of Lilith? No. Am I a Satanist? Yes. However, considering that every person wants to be a Satanic psychopath and doesn’t want to put in the work, there is a lot of misinformation, such as this. The devil is the person whom you know, and the women in the Sunday hats in church on Sunday.
I get a weird type of pleasure seeing incompetent people chase their asses, so I don’t correct them. Giving magic to schizophrenic people is worse than giving them a gun. Don’t mistake me. It is not about moral clarity on my part. It is about power.
Is my post on Reddit? Nope, because I am a real magician. There’s nothing on Reddit but incels and the insane and drug addicts. No powerful magician would consistently post anything there.

Lilith is not a motherly figure. Lilith is associated with infanticide and sex without having human children, and cambions or changelings.
Actually, a few days ago, my husband and I were having a conversation about my mother and my trauma, and that started an entire conversation where I told my husband about how my mother emphasized that not all women love their children and that I should be grateful she did not drown me in the bathtub like some women did to their children. My mother was referencing Andrea Yates at the time… Yes, my mother believes not killing your children is something to be proud of.
That prompted me to look up and tell my husband the statistics of the amount of SIDS cases that were cases of infanticide where the mother murdered their child. In the 1970s, Waneta Hoyt derailed SIDS research because she was actually suffocating her children. Why do I know all of these cases offhand? Because my mother had a fascination with serial killers and mothers who murdered their children. My husband said that people like my mother who are walking around give him the creeps because she seems so nice. Yes, my parents are twisted. How do you think I came out this way? That’s the type of motherhood Lilith represents. It is just very interesting how people like this person spin up these mythologies to cope with being rejected.
This particular person is a trans woman who used to be Wiccan and is feeling drawn back to Wicca, Thelema, and also feels sympathy with Babalon, so this interpretation would make sense for them. Ironically, I think Christian influences — that I know this person hates — have caused them to overlap Lilith with qualities of Eve, too. On a more pejorative note, what’s the difference between mommy issues and daddy issues? It screams of seeking a maternal figure through parasocial relationships with fictional characters.
No, Lilith wouldn’t be the mother of Adam’s children. She would strangle them in their crib. There’s a common syncretism with Lilith and Hecate that’s popular among Neopagans. Both are associated with aspects of femininity, darkness, magic, and independence, making them complementary in certain Neopagan and eclectic spiritual practices. In fiction, Lilith is associated with vampires and cambions, which is a tacit nod to her symbolism regarding unnatural and preternatural reproduction in that vampires are sired, made, and not born. So, it is very interesting to see this peculiar version of Lilith, embodying a maternal role, when Lilith is an antipole notions of Abrhaminc notions femininity. It’s like they’re conflating the qualities of Eve with Lilith.
Lilith is associated with the Qliphoth Gamaliel. Gamaliel is often linked with the darker aspects of femininity, such as seduction, independence, and rebellion against traditional roles. Thus Lilith represents opposition to motherhood and a rejection of the conventional expectations placed on women to fulfill maternal roles and adhere to societal norms of femininity. The maternal aspects this person is attributing to Lilith are actually associated with the Sephirot Binah, exemplified by Eve. So, we can see the absurdity in this.
Am I a cambion? Yes. Am I the scion of Lilith? No. Am I a Satanist? Yes. However, considering that every person wants to be a Satanic psychopath and doesn’t want to put in the work, there is a lot of misinformation, such as this. The devil is the person whom you know, and the women in the Sunday hats in church on Sunday.
I get a weird type of pleasure seeing incompetent people chase their asses, so I don’t correct them. Giving magic to schizophrenic people is worse than giving them a gun. Don’t mistake me. It is not about moral clarity on my part. It is about power.
Is my post on Reddit? Nope, because I am a real magician. There’s nothing on Reddit but incels and the insane and drug addicts. No powerful magician would consistently post anything there.

I’m a fan of Gothic literature and Penny Dreadfuls. I sometimes see myself as Frankenstein’s monster, and I think Frankenstein is very relevant to ethical conversations about AI. The specifics of that are too personal for me to go into at the moment; however, I would say there is something especially abhorrent about creating life just for it to suffer or creating life, calling it monstrous, and disregarding it. The original Frankenstein story started with an epigraph from John Milton’s “Paradise Lost,” which is especially relevant today. My mother is a narcissist and admitted that I was allowed to be born to satisfy her narcissism. So, there is something that disturbs me about something being created in the image and glorification of its creator. While I have a reputation for being a narcissist, I have nothing on my mother.
Although I am known as a vampire, vampiric archetypes and tropes tie more into existential themes and nihilistic views. If people want insight into who I am as a person, why I behave the way that I do, and my philosophies, I recommend:
The Picture of Dorian Gray: An Annotated, Uncensored Edition
The Black CatThe older I get, the more blunted my antisocial and hedonistic edge becomes. Humanity is a social species where we evolved to be cooperative, so selfish hedonism leads to perdition and self-destruction. The more I come face to face with what true evil looks like, the less I idealize it, I suppose.
My unconscious mind would manifest as a poltergeist. My conscious mind represents itself as a draconic or vampiric presence; however, my subconscious mind manifests as a black cat. So, when I am manifesting psychokinesis subconsciously, it materializes as a poltergeist in the form of a black cat. This is one of the reasons why I am skeptical of the objective and literal existence of supernatural entities. In my personal experience, hauntings seem to be patterns and manifestations of psychic energy that emanate from minds.
When I have used robotics and machines to perform magical actions, there was no effect; however, when there was an effect, there was something that had some level of consciousness, whether that be a human or another animal, present. I’m not inclined to believe that these entities are real in the objective sense.

I had a sneaking suspicion that being extremely online and obsessive with occult memes and online cultures turned many of the members of DKMU into Markovian chatbots that are even dumber than even ChatGPT. Since I am an empiricist, I decided to test this hypothesis scientifically. One member, in particular, formerly named FishSticks, inspired this experiment, although I collected data from a large sample of DKMU members.
I collected a substantial amount of posts from the members of DKMU’s social media profiles, including Tumblr, Twitter, Mastodon, etc., and BlueSky using APIs and web scraping tools. I trained a Markov chain text generator using the preprocessed data from Tumblr, Twitter, and BlueSky. Then, I used the trained Markov model to generate synthetic posts.
These posts mimic the style and content of posts found on the aforementioned platforms that I know were written by bots, as well as memes. I trained it on accounts I knew were automated, including bots occultists made. I extracted things like word frequencies, sentence structure, average post length, etc., from the members of DKMU’s posts.
Since I wanted to compare the similarity between two vectors, particularly in high-dimensional spaces, I used Cosine Similarity. It calculates the cosine of the angle between two vectors and provides a similarity score ranging from -1 to 1. Since I am working with text data, I used word embeddings such as Word2Vec embeddings to represent the text data in a dense vector space to calculate similarity using cosine similarity or other distance measures in this vector space.
I used t-tests since I have a continuous measure of similarity (e.g., cosine similarity scores between real and synthetic posts) to see whether the mean similarity score differs significantly between the two groups. It didn’t. What does that mean?
To put it simply, it means that speaking to the members of DKMU is not significantly different from speaking to a chatbot that spews random nonsense. Considering they’ve bound an egregore to a Markov bot, you can actually treat them in a similar manner. If someone were able to scientifically prove that I am almost identical to a chatbot that spews nonsense, I would see that as a problem. I truly don’t understand how they can be comfortable living like that. This is an empirical case that shows they have absolutely no identity. At all. The insane thing is that many of these same people get highly offended when people mistake them for a bot.
Considering that many of these folks try their hand at being occult authors, that means you could actually replace their writing with ChatGPT, and no one would notice because they are almost identical to a Markov bot!
These extremely online folks have literally degenerated. Their brain is actually rotting. Wow. Stay away from cults people!

The facets of me probably confuse a lot of people. I’m not a typical vampire. I absorb the energy from and the experiences of whoever is around me. While I don’t absorb semantic knowledge, I absorb tacit knowledge — the knowledge of how.
So, if you know how to do ceremonial magic, and I am in your locality, I will absorb via osmosis your knowledge of how to do ceremonial magic. However, I won’t absorb the semantic knowledge of the literal meanings of symbols. But, I will have an intuitive knowledge and recognition of those symbols if I see them. I won’t have a literal understanding of them; however, I will have an abstract and intuitive knowledge of what they mean from tapping into another magician’s experience with them. If you know chaos magic, I will now know chaos magic. If you know witchcraft, I will know witchcraft.
As of late, I am consciously and deliberately blocking absorption of that knowledge because I feel the experiences of many occultists are tainted with insanity, and I am not trying to go crazy with them. That is why it is beyond idiotic to try to gate keep and use magic against me. If you are in my locality, i.e., there is a causal, physical pathway for interaction like physical, albeit digital interactions on social media, I can absorb knowledge from you. A way to stop this would, of course, be to leave me alone.
It is why I can circumvent gatekeeping and initiation. The purpose of initiation is to create an ineffable experience that is tied to that cohort and culture. It bridges the gap between semantic knowledge from what is written in grimoires and the internal experiences and ineffable knowledge to work the magic. By absorbing the tacit knowledge from what it seems like to do to know how to do something, I can intuitively know how to do it. Magic is subjective; therefore, it is tied to subjective forms of qualia such as how it seems like to see blue or the blueness of blue to you. It is tied to your experience of what it seems like to be you. Since I can tap into that, I can tap into the ineffable aspects of magic.
To say it differently, I have the ability to telepathically channel and intuitively imitate abilities. This doesn’t apply to just magic and occultism. If I am around a person who can play the piano, I will know how to play the piano. If I am around a person who knows Math, I will know how to do Math. Unfortunately, unless I learn it and create experiences and memories for myself, it doesn’t stick around. Well, it does and does not.
My husband, who has permission to poke around my head, says that my mind is like the mansion from 13 ghosts, where my subconscious mind is like a giant maze structured around a black hole. I seem to create an instance, model, or homunculus of the person in my mind where the tacit knowledge and the qualia of their subjective experience are channeled into that representation. I don’t forget it so much that I shove that instance of the person into the maze. It is not so much that I am a brilliant magician and genius; instead, I absorb information. My husband calls me a living grimoire.

People are not as mystically, magically, or psychically disconnected as we think they are. Magic that you can interact with is not like a ‘set it and forget it’ thing. It stays associated with you per your potential to interact with it. I’m seeing many people who have the wrong idea about servitors…
Locality can be interchanged with causality in a lot of cases, so we can say entities are connected if they can cause a change in each other. For example, if I throw a ball at someone, there is a scalar of speed and a vector of velocity that carries the ball through the air and hits them in the head; thereby causing a change in their state. If I threw a ball at a person from my house, and they were on the other side of the world, the ball would hit the wall and not them. There is no connection because they are not local. Systems are connected on some level if they can cause a change.
The above example is ephemeral because there is no prolonged connection beyond those moments. Magic is more persistent because a person can interact with a spell they’ve cast or an entity they are interacting with per intent. If you create a spell, servitor, etc., and you can interact with the spell or the servitor, you’re still connected. If you can control a servitor, you are still connected; therefore, the servitor is a part of you. Since the servitor is connected to you via causal relationships, that servitor you created can exert an influence backward on you. What does that mean? That means if you set a servitor after someone and can control that servitor, there is a locality between that person, the servitor, and your mind, so a magician can get into your head or influence the servitor to influence you via that open channel. You can cut by cutting the connection to the servitor; however, that implies you can’t control the entity. It’s fully autonomous. If you cut off your hand, your hand is not a part of you; however, you can’t move that hand anymore. Your ability to exert a causal influence on something implies you are in that thing’s locality and that there exists a potential inverse where you can be pushed back on and influenced. Spells connect things, and servitors are persistent daemons. You are disconnected from a system, network, or entity if there is no potential causal relationship to imply a local connection.
We can think of the psychic plane as having systems of connected concepts and experiences. Personally, I am skeptical of the realism of astrology and astral planes, so I believe that any celestial metaphor or analogy should have some support. We can point to an area that is a cluster of hateful concepts and experiences and we can say that the influence of those clusters is the dominant force for that domain. We say that things are in a solar system based on something called a hill sphere.
The Hill sphere is a concept in celestial mechanics that defines a region around a celestial body (like a planet or a moon) within which its gravitational influence dominates over the gravitational influence of another body. We can simulate a psychic analogy via Graph Theory and force-drawing algorithms like Force Atlas. That will render something that looks like a semantic constellation. In this, there is an attractive force on connecting nodes after a random repulsive force is exerted on every node on the graph. The forces acting on each node are continuously recalculated based on their positions and the strengths of connections (edges) between them. This iterative process continues until the forces reach equilibrium, meaning that the nodes settle into stable positions where the forces balance out. With this, we can see a clustering of concepts, archetypes, patterns, experiences, etc via associativity and their correspondences. Within clusters formed by the Force Atlas algorithm, certain nodes may emerge as more central or influential than others. These central nodes often have higher degrees of connectivity within their respective clusters, meaning they are more strongly connected to other nodes in the cluster. Nodes with higher connectivity within a cluster are akin to bodies with larger hill spheres in celestial mechanics because they exert greater influence over the surrounding nodes within their cluster. So, there is a weak analogical connection between psychic bodies hill spheres in celestial bodies.
While we are physically in the same place, when people engage with psychic planes, a part of them is moving within those domains where there is an implicit influence. Mass is a property that resists acceleration, so we can think of a psychic analogy as what we will or will not do. If you are psychically being displaced as you move towards a domain that exerts a greater influence, you are accelerating towards that thing which implies there is an inverse relationship between the influence of your will and that body. You are paying for your magic through sacrificing bits of yourself, in other words, which includes your sanity.

If you create a spell, servitor, etc., and you can interact with the spell or the servitor, you’re still connected. If you can control a servitor, you are still connected; therefore, the servitor is a part of you. Since the servitor is connected to you via causal relationships, that servitor you created can exert an influence backward on you. What does that mean? That means if you set a servitor after someone and can control that servitor, there is a locality between that person, the servitor, and your mind, so a magician can get into your head or influence the servitor to influence you via that open channel. You can cut by cutting the connection to the servitor; however, that implies you can’t control the entity. It’s fully autonomous. If you cut off your hand, your hand is not a part of you; however, you can’t move that hand anymore. Your ability to exert a causal influence on something implies you are in that thing’s locality and that there exists a potential inverse where you can be pushed back on and influenced. Spells connect things, and servitors are persistent daemons. You are disconnected from a system, network, or entity if there is no potential causal relationship to imply a local connection.
We can think of the psychic plane as having systems of connected concepts and experiences. Personally, I am skeptical of the realism of astrology and astral planes, so I believe that any celestial metaphor or analogy should have some support. We can point to an area that is a cluster of hateful concepts and experiences and we can say that the influence of those clusters is the dominant force for that domain. We say that things are in a solar system based on something called a hill sphere.
The Hill sphere is a concept in celestial mechanics that defines a region around a celestial body (like a planet or a moon) within which its gravitational influence dominates over the gravitational influence of another body. We can simulate a psychic analogy via Graph Theory and force-drawing algorithms like Force Atlas. That will render something that looks like a semantic constellation. In this, there is an attractive force on connecting nodes after a random repulsive force is exerted on every node on the graph. The forces acting on each node are continuously recalculated based on their positions and the strengths of connections (edges) between them. This iterative process continues until the forces reach equilibrium, meaning that the nodes settle into stable positions where the forces balance out. With this, we can see a clustering of concepts, archetypes, patterns, experiences, etc via associativity and their correspondences. Within clusters formed by the Force Atlas algorithm, certain nodes may emerge as more central or influential than others. These central nodes often have higher degrees of connectivity within their respective clusters, meaning they are more strongly connected to other nodes in the cluster. Nodes with higher connectivity within a cluster are akin to bodies with larger hill spheres in celestial mechanics because they exert greater influence over the surrounding nodes within their cluster. So, there is a weak analogical connection between psychic bodies hill spheres in celestial bodies.
While we are physically in the same place, when people engage with psychic planes, a part of them is moving within those domains where there is an implicit influence. Mass is a property that resists acceleration, so we can think of a psychic analogy as what we will or will not do. If you are psychically being displaced as you move towards a domain that exerts a greater influence, you are accelerating towards that thing which implies there is an inverse relationship between the influence of your will and that body. You are paying for your magic through sacrificing bits of yourself, in other words, which includes your sanity.
