#psychic — Public Fediverse posts

I think of psychic and magical energy as a gas due to its intangible and diffuse nature. Just as a gas can fill a space and spread out evenly, psychic energy can permeate and interact with the environment similarly, so linking psychic energy to how a scent diffuses through a room is useful. So, one way that I permeate a space with magical energy is through enchanted candles that I make.

The problem with burning the candles is, well, they burn. They get used over time. Considering it takes a lot of effort to enchant my magic candles, it gets annoying. Well, my husband surprised me yesterday with a candle warmer! I don’t post my magic gear on the Internet, so this is just a picture with a regular, mundane scented candle.

Since I don’t have to actually burn the candles, my magic candles last a lot longer. When I do quick and dirty magic on the go, I use breathing techniques to pull the energy into me, transmute it, and breathe it out. I call it a dragon’s fire breath technique. Using candles is a more latent version of that.

When I think of the phase state of psychic and magical energy, I liken it to a liquid or a gas. Some people refer to it as astral energy. I prefer not to use the term ‘astral’ when describing the phenomenological, noetic realm of subjective experiences, as it carries celestial connotations. ‘Astral’ connotes cosmic things, such as what is in space. I would use the word ‘astral’ if I were referring to the noetic space of outer space, particularly around the physical bodies of planets.

When I am referring to psychic energy, I am normally referring to the field, ambiance, and psychic atmosphere here on Earth where many of the structures emerge from human consciousness and intelligence. For example, I live in Atlanta near an important genius loci and nexus, so the psychic energy that flows around here is as natural as the skylines, concrete, and streets of Atlanta. Instead of being like the celestial light from the sun, it is more like the light from satellites and buildings. Genius loci are not technically natural. They emerge as a consequence of human architecture. For example, a green space in a city isn’t natural; however, it exerts an influence on people and makes them feel more relaxed.

Energy is not a thing; it is an abstraction. It is something we derive from reference frames and relationships and is not necessarily something that we observe. The energy in something is stored as potential by a field, i.e., a structured set of relationships and correlations within that structured set. A structured set is a collection of categories, variables, or dimensions where there are binary operators between those categories, dimensions, or sets. Energy is a scalar that describes the ability to produce a change or for a system to take action, and the potential energy of a system is held within the relationships defined by operators that connect the objects or entities. A simple way to think of energy is that it is a description of the behavior of something or how something causes something to behave. In certain esoteric contexts, energy and spirit can be interchanged, albeit I make a particular distinction later on in this post. So, in that sense, the spirit of the place, i.e., the genius loci, is how people interact with the space and how the space affects people such that their behavior is changed. So, the spirit of the place is manifest through how people interact with that space. The connotation is not originally naturalistic; instead, it is a reference to how temples and gothic architecture affect people. Gothic architecture was designed to evoke notions of the sublime, for example. The spirit of the place is manifest in how you feel when you walk into the cathedral.

I reject the solipsistic and human-centered view many occultists have. Empirically observable instances of psychic phenomena manifest through the art of magic imply that causality is inverted. Instead of mental entities supervening on, being emergent from matter, and being epiphenomena, physical states are subsets of a psychic domain. That would mean that all physical objects are phase states of a psychic realm. And, being manifestations of that psychic realm means that physical objects have ‘what it seems like to be’ that thing. Many occultists operate in a very human-centric or solipsistic paradigm where they believe that only things they recognize as having subjective experiences have those experiences. Since causality is inverted, that means that every infinitesimal cell of physical space, including the energy, matter, and physical objects that emerge from it, has a higher-dimensional aspect of what it seems like to be that cell. Physical reality is able to maintain its coherence because all aspects of physical existence have a higher-dimensional noetic aspect that is able to perceive itself. The cosmos can see itself where humans are manifestations of that. Consensual reality is cosmologically maintained by the mutual reference frames of the interconnected experiences of atoms, rocks, and all the way up to suns. If I experience you and you experience me, it creates a correlation and a local frame of reference within a manifold. Human intelligence is not integral to reality on a cosmological level because everything has a subjective experience, albeit unintelligent entities do not have the will to deliberately cause change. You are not just perceiving the cosmos. The cosmos is perceiving you.

A rock has a psychic form of experience; however, is a rock intelligent? I can draw psychic energy from a rock without encountering resistance; however, if I draw energy from a person without their consent, their will shall oppose me, much like how mass resists acceleration. That nuance is what separates panpsychism from animism. I do not believe that the rock has a “soul”; instead, it has a fractal, recursive, and chaotic higher-dimensional structure that gives it a qualia I.e., of what it seems like to be a rock; however, a rock cannot apprehend and understand its experience of being a rock. Self-similar structures that feed back into themselves are chaotic. However, it lacks the will to choose its next experience, nor does it possess the intelligence to apprehend its own existence. It’s like light, which can be emitted and absorbed. In this sense, it is sufficient to be called astral light. Metaphysically, the closet thing these objects have is called ousia, which roughly connotates a spirit.

Culture is implicit in any piece of technology. It serves as an abstraction for how humans teach, learn, and employ particular pedagogies. Language is culturally learned, and not just a reflection of human intelligence. As language evolved, societies began to develop standardized terminologies and methodologies for toolmaking. Cultural adaptation and technological innovation are closely intertwined processes. As cultures evolve and encounter new challenges, they develop novel technologies to address these challenges, thereby creating further cultural change and adaptation. Conversely, technological innovations can disrupt existing cultural practices and social structures, often prompting cultural resistance, adaptation, or transformation.

Implicit in any form of technology or anything that comes from human technology is human culture, intelligence, and will that is implicit in the design. Unlike something natural and spontaneous, like a rock, something like a knife was designed and manifested from a cultural form to cut. A way to think of the essence or ousia of an object is through its function. So, the essence of a knife is to cut. The essence of a gun is to shoot. This means that things that are a consequence of human intelligent design have aspects of human will that can resist you; however, it is an extension of the prototypical aspects created via human intelligence and will.

Complex human tools are closely correlated with the emergence of languages to encode precision and standards. For example, mathematics and numbers allowed for the creation of more precise tools, also with the ability to communicate these standards through culture. This also applies to gods. Many big ancient gods arose and came into being when human civilization began; therefore, the intelligence of those entities is anthropic manifestations of human intelligence and will. Many pantheons of gods are extrinsicly connected to human societies and civilizations – if those civilizations did not exist, neither would those gods. Gods are shaped by human cultures and belief systems, and they derive their significance and characteristics from the needs, values, and experiences of the people who worship them.

I’m using ‘existence’ in an abstract ontological sense. Existence is a categorical proposition. If I have a category called ‘beds’, then an instance of a bed would mean that the bed exists. If I have a category of ‘vaba81’ and ‘1gabaha’ is a subset of ‘vaba81’ such that ‘vaba81={1gabaha}’, then ‘1gabaha’ exists as an instance of ‘vaba81’. The problem lies in the epistemological justification. Can we empirically and objectively observe it? Frequently, objectivity gets conflated with empiricism. Objectivity means consistency. For example, 1+1=2. That is objective; however, it is not empirical, since mathematics is metaphysically a priori and epistemologically rational. How humans know 1+1=2 is something we do not know, in that we do not get this information from how we interact with the world. There is an epistemological and ontological debate about whether numbers are real and exist in a Neoplatonic sense or if they are a product of the human brain. Obviously, I assume that numbers exist in a Neoplatonic sense.

Whether we can empirically observe something or not is not metaphysically important, especially within the context of Boolean Logic. When we consider the existence of circles, squares, and even real numbers, we treat these mathematical and geometric objects as if they are real; however, we have never empirically observed a circle or even a ‘1’. We have observed circular objects, and we have observed symbols for ‘1’. Gods occupy a similar metaphysical niche in the noetic sphere.

I exist separate from a person’s representation of me in their mind; however, I exist in a noetic sphere as does that image in their mind in the same way a picture of me exists as do I, though I am not the picture. In this sense, I am referring to the image of gods. Personally, I am an atheist, so I do not believe they are real, so I assume people work with psychic systems and entities in the form of a god. The difference between these two is that 1+1 is always 2, while fictions, mythologies, civilizations, and religions change. Math (numbers and geometrical shapes) and logic have more of a tautological and objective nature than theistic fictions, albeit they both exist in the noetic sphere because one changes and is true in all cases deductively, and the other is not. We can say that theistic pantheons are fictions since they change over time per integrals of human experience and culture; however, Mathematics does not revise itself. It just accumulates.

We infer existential import from whether or not we can observe real instances of a proposed category. Magic, Idealism, and Panpsychism are metaphysical cases against realism. Parapsychological experiments that demonstrate and support hypotheses that show intentions, expectations, and beliefs affect physically disconnected and non-local systems are empirical cases against realism. Metaphysical realism is predicated on the idea of a mind-independent universe; however, the ability for our intentions to influence the world and the ability for us to gain information about the world outside of physical events are counterexamples to that idea. If our intentions can affect the world around us, then it implies that reality is not entirely independent of our minds but rather intertwined with it. This challenges the notion of a purely objective reality existing independently of human consciousness. Whether or not gods are real isn’t relevant; instead, what is relevant is the categories they supervene on and whether they supervene on human intelligence.

A rock is not extrinsic and emergent from human design, so there is no structure of human will that is intrinsic to it. Therefore, there is no will. If you tried to extract, evoke, or invoke the energy – the ousia, of an object to do something opposite its ousia, there will be resistance. The ousia, or essence, of a gun could be considered to be its ability to project force or cause harm through the expulsion of a projectile. The opposite of this essence embodies peace, non-violence, or something represented by a gesture like an open hand offering help or friendship. If you tried to evoke the spirit of a gun for a non-violent manifestation of peace instead of peace through violence, martial applications, there would be resistance and dissonance. The spirit of the gun itself is not resisting you; rather, an extension of human spirit is resisting you. Ousia is more abstract than spirit. Ousia is an abstract class that something belongs to, so the existence of a car, a gun, a knife, a building, so on and so forth is an instance of a prototypical abstraction, i.e., a blueprint. We can think of these categories as existing in a noetic sphere, so instances of my computer that I am typing this on have an ousia that is connected to a form in that noetic sphere. The thing that is analogous to a spirit or a soul – ousia, is a manifestation and an aspect given through human consciousness and intelligence. The ability for these objects to resist your will is a manifestation of collective human will, resisting you.

The only natural things around me, at the moment, are the sky and the ground. Since I live in a metropolitan city, everything around me is manmade; therefore, implicit in everything is human will manifested through the infrastructure and technology around me. Since the city I live in is a manifestation of human intelligence and civilization down to the laws I must follow in this city, the energy I would draw from objects around me has a quality analogous to mass implicit in the will that creates it. Laws and politics in a democratic Republic, like the United States, are manifestations of the collective will of the people; therefore, it has mass. That means that the laws of a metropolis, like Atlanta, have mass and resistance to wills that run counter to that. That is in part why it is so hard to influence political events. You are trying to influence something that is massive. It’s easy to do in a small city because you have fewer people; however, it is very difficult to do with metropolises since the genius loci of the city is massive. In my experience, when a genius loci gets large enough, it exerts an attractive force that draws people with sympathy to it and manipulates possible futures to create a teleological point where a person being drawn there is inevitable and a matter of time, similar to how the singularity of a black hole behaves.

A way to think of the essence or ousia of an object is through its function. So, the essence of a knife is to cut. The essence of a gun is to shoot. This means that things that are a consequence of human intelligent design have aspects of human will that can resist you; however, it is an extension of the prototypical aspects created via human intelligence and will.

Complex human tools are closely correlated with the emergence of languages to encode precision and standards. For example, mathematics and numbers allowed for the creation of more precise tools, also with the ability to communicate these standards through culture. This also applies to gods. Many big ancient gods arose and came into being when human civilization began; therefore, the intelligence of those entities is anthropic manifestations of human intelligence and will. Many pantheons of gods are extrinsicly connected to human societies and civilizations – if those civilizations did not exist, neither would those gods. Gods are shaped by human cultures and belief systems, and they derive their significance and characteristics from the needs, values, and experiences of the people who worship them.

I’m using ‘existence’ in an abstract ontological sense. Existence is a categorical proposition. If I have a category called ‘beds’, then an instance of a bed would mean that the bed exists. If I have a category of ‘vaba81’ and ‘1gabaha’ is a subset of ‘vaba81’ such that ‘vaba81={1gabaha}’, then ‘1gabaha’ exists as an instance of ‘vaba81’. The problem lies in the epistemological justification. Can we empirically and objectively observe it? Frequently, objectivity gets conflated with empiricism. Objectivity means consistency. For example, 1+1=2. That is objective; however, it is not empirical, since mathematics is metaphysically a priori and epistemologically rational. How humans know 1+1=2 is something we do not know, in that we do not get this information from how we interact with the world. There is an epistemological and ontological debate about whether numbers are real and exist in a Neoplatonic sense or if they are a product of the human brain. Obviously, I assume that numbers exist in a Neoplatonic sense.

Whether we can empirically observe something or not is not metaphysically important, especially within the context of Boolean Logic. When we consider the existence of circles, squares, and even real numbers, we treat these mathematical and geometric objects as if they are real; however, we have never empirically observed a circle or even a ‘1’. We have observed circular objects, and we have observed symbols for ‘1’. Gods occupy a similar metaphysical niche in the noetic sphere.

I exist separate from a person’s representation of me in their mind; however, I exist in a noetic sphere as does that image in their mind in the same way a picture of me exists as do I, though I am not the picture. In this sense, I am referring to the image of gods. Personally, I am an atheist, so I do not believe they are real, so I assume people work with psychic systems and entities in the form of a god. The difference between these two is that 1+1 is always 2, while fictions, mythologies, civilizations, and religions change. Math (numbers and geometrical shapes) and logic have more of a tautological and objective nature than theistic fictions, albeit they both exist in the noetic sphere because one changes and is true in all cases deductively, and the other is not. We can say that theistic pantheons are fictions since they change over time per integrals of human experience and culture; however, Mathematics does not revise itself. It just accumulates.

We infer existential import from whether or not we can observe real instances of a proposed category. Magic, Idealism, and Panpsychism are metaphysical cases against realism. Parapsychological experiments that demonstrate and support hypotheses that show intentions, expectations, and beliefs affect physically disconnected and non-local systems are empirical cases against realism. Metaphysical realism is predicated on the idea of a mind-independent universe; however, the ability for our intentions to influence the world and the ability for us to gain information about the world outside of physical events are counterexamples to that idea. If our intentions can affect the world around us, then it implies that reality is not entirely independent of our minds but rather intertwined with it. This challenges the notion of a purely objective reality existing independently of human consciousness. Whether or not gods are real isn’t relevant; instead, what is relevant is the categories they supervene on and whether they supervene on human intelligence.

A rock is not extrinsic and emergent from human design, so there is no structure of human will that is intrinsic to it. Therefore, there is no will. If you tried to extract, evoke, or invoke the energy – the ousia, of an object to do something opposite its ousia, there will be resistance. The ousia, or essence, of a gun could be considered to be its ability to project force or cause harm through the expulsion of a projectile. The opposite of this essence embodies peace, non-violence, or something represented by a gesture like an open hand offering help or friendship. If you tried to evoke the spirit of a gun for a non-violent manifestation of peace instead of peace through violence, martial applications, there would be resistance and dissonance. The spirit of the gun itself is not resisting you; rather, an extension of human spirit is resisting you. Ousia is more abstract than spirit. Ousia is an abstract class that something belongs to, so the existence of a car, a gun, a knife, a building, so on and so forth is an instance of a prototypical abstraction, i.e., a blueprint. We can think of these categories as existing in a noetic sphere, so instances of my computer that I am typing this on have an ousia that is connected to a form in that noetic sphere. The thing that is analogous to a spirit or a soul – ousia, is a manifestation and an aspect given through human consciousness and intelligence. The ability for these objects to resist your will is a manifestation of collective human will, resisting you.

The only natural things around me, at the moment, are the sky and the ground. Since I live in a metropolitan city, everything around me is manmade; therefore, implicit in everything is human will manifested through the infrastructure and technology around me. Since the city I live in is a manifestation of human intelligence and civilization down to the laws I must follow in this city, the energy I would draw from objects around me has a quality analogous to mass implicit in the will that creates it. Laws and politics in a democratic Republic, like the United States, are manifestations of the collective will of the people; therefore, it has mass. That means that the laws of a metropolis, like Atlanta, have mass and resistance to wills that run counter to that. That is in part why it is so hard to influence political events. You are trying to influence something that is massive. It’s easy to do in a small city because you have fewer people; however, it is very difficult to do with metropolises since the genius loci of the city is massive. In my experience, when a genius loci gets large enough, it exerts an attractive force that draws people with sympathy to it and manipulates possible futures to create a teleological point where a person being drawn there is inevitable and a matter of time, similar to how the singularity of a black hole behaves.

Yes, yes, my previous post was about this blog being defunct; however, I don’t want to post or talk about this stuff from my main blog, so here we go.

I have issues with tarot cards. To be completely honest, my issues are exacerbated by people doubting my authenticity because I am not obsessed with occult symbols or talk endlessly about things like tarot cards, astrology, or grimoires. I wish I were kidding, but I’ve had little cabals, guilds, and cliques of people following me around the Internet for over 16 years at this point trying to prove I’m not legitimate. From what I can tell, it is because I refuse to join any occult cults or use systems that came from cult leaders. They find the idea of magic without an occult or religious system absolutely threatening or harmful to their self-esteem. I think it’s a weird manifestation of the sunk cost fallacy in that many of them have spent a lot of money, at the very least, if not large portions of their lives on these things. But, I digress.

One, tarot cards are overly complex and superfluous for no reason. Two, people who use them aren’t actually interested in whether the predictions are true. You can implement something like tarot cards without tarot cards. Personally, I like playing cards over tarot cards, and I’ve known some people to use Magic The Gathering Cards. In any case, we can treat denotations of magical paradigms as ontologies and ontological statements or expressions. As such, we can regard them as languages. A way to think about it is that I can store demons, angels, tarot cards, correspondences, etc. into a database, such as the MySQL database of this site. What does that imply? That implies that we can model magical entities as a mathematical set of tuples, i.e., an alphabet. The ability to store entities from a grimoire in a database.

Keep in mind that this site is powered by PHP and MySQL. If a person were to create a table in their database schema for demons, your ability to see that on the site would be an empirical case for the ability to do encode that information as tuples. The point is that we can treat the properties of these entities and the entity itself as an alphabet and words, respectively. That means that magical entities and correspondences are components of a tuple joined by operators to create relationships and rules. We can call that a language. As such, expressions and statements – such as the magical entity itself, can be expressed via a base 2 system, i.e., binary. An empirical case for this is the ability to store magical entities in a database, on a high level, which is digitally encoded as bytes sent across the Internet which you read through a CMS powered by SQL.

An example of a base 2 system is an ensemble of coins where each coin has two possible states. Conventionally, we can think of them as yes or no. Anything that you can store digitally is binary. Even an image. So, you are not necessarily restricted to yes or no questions, for you can abstract those. You can abstract different lengths and frequencies of yes and no into any pattern that you want. The point is that any person can create any prototypical pattern that they want, that’s a high-level abstraction of binary states. There’s no particular reason to use tarot cards or an occult divination system at all.

Here’s the other thing we know about how psychic and magical phenomena work: It’s based on subjective meaning. There’s a stronger connection if something has meaning to you, and it is subjective. There’s a larger dissonance between the prototypical patterns of a magical system and gestalt patterns and prototypical patterns of your behavior that emerge from your subjective experience. There’s a technique called a soul mirror in Hermetic schools of thought. Looking at your experience through a Hermetic magical system and language reflects back to you a version of yourself through the eyes of a Hermetic system; however, ChatGPT can actually be used as a type of mirror, too. One thing that I have been experimenting with is having ChatGPT analyze my journal entries and identify prototypical patterns that can be used in lieu of typical archetypes that show up in occultism. Again, you can treat the attributes of these patterns as tuples and reduce it down to a binary system that can be paired with coin divination practices.

It’s not just an aesthetic issue, it is an epistemological issue. When you are trying to scientifically prove something, you don’t actually prove it. What was drilled into my head is that science does not prove anything, because science is inductive and not deductive; therefore, nothing can be 100% in science. Instead, science supports hypotheses and theories. In addition to that, you aim to debunk your own hypothesis. This means, if the hypothesis is that the cards have a message in them, we should be able to disprove this. Since this is purely a statistical problem, this makes it falsifiable where a lay person can easily do Null Hypothesis Significance testing.

Randomness isn’t chaos. Randomness is when there is an equal probability of something happening. If there is a pool of events and all the events have the same probability of happening, that is an example of randomness. Information is an inverse property to randomness, where there is some type of sequence and correlation among pairs, i.e., a joint probability. Information is an ordered sequence of the joint probability of two things joined by an operator that denotes a correlation. So, that means if we are testing for the presence of information and a message in a spread of cards, we are looking for correlations, patterns, and redundancy above chance.

Say that a tarot card reader is able to reject the null hypothesis and show that there is a message in the cards. Does this mean that it was the tarot cards after all? No. What is actually happening? When someone with precognition senses the future, what is happening is that the information is being written to their brain and body. Biological systems are very noisy, and they are stochastic and chaotic. There is a lot of randomness. Similar to how random events are altered outside a person’s body through magic, precognition orders random events inside a person’s body.

The synaptic transmission of neurons—whether a neuron fires or not—is inherently stochastic. For example, the exact timing and number of vesicles released in response to each action potential can vary due to stochastic factors. These factors may include random fluctuations in the concentration of calcium ions or variations in the availability of vesicles for release. In addition, the probability of a neurotransmitter molecule binding to a receptor depends on factors such as the concentration of neurotransmitter in the synaptic cleft, the affinity of the neurotransmitter for its receptor, and the presence of other molecules that may compete for receptor binding. By manipulating stochastic, noisy, and probabilistic factors such as these, precognitive information is written to the person’s brain through the activation of neural pathways.

Because of this, probability manipulation can be used to influence a person’s thoughts. By manipulating the probability of them making a particular decision, you can influence processes such as synaptic transmission and the firing of neural pathways. For obvious ethical reasons, I do not use this technique often and I do not teach it. In this political climate, who knows what people would do. I can compel people with that technique, but it requires one enter into a head space where you are okay with total domination of another person, and that persona is hard to shake off.

This means that when we can reject the null hypothesis in a tarot card reading regarding whether the cards convey a message or not, the power isn’t coming from the tarot cards or any magical system. Rather, a person is using precognition to sense the future. They are correlating that with entropic systems to encode information in an external source. Similar to how noise gets ordered in their brain, the entropic system becomes ordered to encode information. That implies there isn’t anything special about tarot cards. Instead, it is a combination of psychokinesis and precognition. Of course that implies a level of psychokinesis and precognition is necessary, though, a particular system is not.

For example, my husband is a diviner. He has precognitive abilities, empathic abilities, and small forms of psychokinesis, which manifest through his use of cards as a tool. The cards that frequently come up when we’ve been able to reject the null hypothesis for me are:

• King of Hearts
• Queen of Spades
• King of Diamonds
• Queen of Clubs
• King of Clubs

These cards frequently come up when my husband does a reading in a controlled experiment. We have an automatic card shuffler to eliminate any bias introduced from how we may shuffle the cards. My husband calls them the Five Monarchs, and he says that they represent five different personas that I have. He is correlating his empathic abilities with an ensemble that has entropy to encode information about my subconscious mind. These cards come up frequently beyond chance. Many occultists who have run into me are probably familiar with who is my Queen of Spades aspect that exemplifies the Evil Queen archetype.

While we are on the topic, formats like JPG and Computer Vision (CV) use Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) to convert blocks of pixel data from the spatial domain (the original image) into the frequency domain (represented by coefficients). It does this by decomposing the image into a sum of cosine functions of different frequencies. The DCT represents the image data as a set of coefficients corresponding to different frequencies. Lower frequencies represent smooth variations in color and intensity, while higher frequencies represent rapid changes, such as edges or fine details. This means that any occult image that can be encoded as a JPEG is composed of sines and cosines, indicating that the image possesses harmonics. This means that any sigil or magical seal encoded in a JPG format is an image composed of sines and cosines that can be minimally represented with n modulo 2. If you encode the magical texts or magical seals into a digital image, it has a harmonic and binary representation.

I’ve been experimenting with the interplay of harmonics, entropy, and image formats to manipulate Johnson–Nyquist noise or randomness from beam splitters and laser pointers, with the aim of conjuring digital images and sigils directly through magic. My endeavors have involved extensive research and experimentation. However, regrettably, given the increasing radicalization within occult and paranormal communities, it’s too dangerous, irresponsible, and unethical to allow this knowledge to fall into their hands.

Entropy is not necessarily randomness, either, although they are often used interchangeably. Randomness and entropy become interchangeable when entropy is maximized. Entropy is a measurement of an ensemble and the permutations of that ensemble. A system that can be configured differently is thus an entropic system; however, that doesn’t necessarily imply randomness. Randomness implies one configuration being just as likely as another one. Having different permutations doesn’t imply all permutations are equally likely. Factorials can be used to calculate the number of possible arrangements or configurations of a system, which is closely related to its entropy. A maximally entropic system would be random; however, a random system is not necessary for there to a psychic influence, for there just needs to be enough degrees of freedom and entropy.

I think tarot cards denote a particular culture. It’s a signifier of cultural membership. It signals to everyone that you are into occultism and tarot card readers act as guides, so it denotes a particular level of spiritual authority. Tarot card readers would thus be equivalent to an evangelical that does intercessory prayer. Seeing a tarot card reader would be like a Christian seeking a pastor.

We don’t call Music Physics. We call Music Music, and we classify it as an art. To me, magic is the part of the underlying metaphysical aspects. The problem that I have is occultists’ belief that they have a dominance on magic such that people are starting to believe you cannot practice magic without occultism. Honestly, occultism is going down really, really dark paths, and I don’t believe you can spiritually progress while practicing occultism, so, for me, it is imperative to unlink magic and occultism.

A tarot card reader that claims they rely on intuition is a fake. If there were a message encoded in the cards, we could measure the frequencies of particular cards to see if they were random without the interpretation of the tarot card reader, regardless of whether we knew what the message meant. The patterns would be there.

It’s an aesthetic and a token of cultural membership.

This is your reminder that I’m a vampire. It’s not an aesthetic; I’m an actual vampire. I’ve conducted some experiments. I’ve taken samples of my blood as the experimental group and another person’s as a control, and created a ward to cut the blood off from any psychic or magical energy or influence. What happened is that the proteins in my blood started to denature, whereas the other sample of blood remained the same. We used a centrifuge and biochemical assays to determine this. Yes, I have all of this equipment. I was one of those kids who got chemistry sets, telescopes, and microscopes for Christmas, so I’ve always had a home lab ever since I was a teenager. The lab and occult parts of our home look like something straight out of a sci-fi movie. No, I will not post my labs online.

Psychic and magical constructs are types of dynamical entities with structures and periodic properties. If you have an RNG or REG, a Geiger counter, or a cloud chamber, you can measure a pattern or signature. You can measure a signal through patterns in noise. So, I wanted to verify that there indeed was some type of magical influence and measure it, and I wanted to see if my blood would interfere with someone else’s magic. We set up sensors and did an initial experiment to verify that there indeed was magical or psychic influence from another person’s magic, and then we tested if my blood had an effect. Yes, we controlled everything, and not just the blood. We did baseline measurements to understand the background noise and signals not associated with psychic or magical phenomena. We conducted control experiments where no magical or psychic influence was expected. To control for the confounding variable of my expectations, we had someone else do the experiment with proper blinding. If my blood actually absorbs magic, then there should be an increase in noise in the measurable signal.

What happened was that there was no effect with the other person’s blood, but with my blood, there was a decrease in the measured order and an increase in disorder until the data was just chance. That meant that the presence of my blood had an entropic effect on the magic influence. We can speculate because my blood absorbed the magic. That also means that my blood is a good binding agent for magic, which is why I use it in magical inks. My favorite ink to mix is dragon’s blood ink. I’ve been experimenting with other resins, though.

This means that without feeding, I’ll get sickly and that psychic and magical energy are drawn to and absorbed by my blood. I don’t have to actively do anything. Anything ambient will flow towards me, so magic done in my locality will arc towards me.

Because I’m not gothic, people forget I’m a vampire. Do all vampires have the abilities I do? No, actually. I seem to be exceptionally talented with magic. I suppose that’s because of why I’m a vampire, though. I’m the scion of a specific type that’s associated with sorcery. Most vampires can’t do what I can do.

Do I have enhanced senses? Yes and no. I’m clairvoyant, so I have enhanced senses via ESP. I can see in complete darkness with my clairvoyance and even with my eyes closed. There’s an element of psychometry to my clairvoyance, so if you were in a location, sat down, and walked through the woods, I would be able to see the psychic signature you left behind and track and watch you in complete darkness. It’s similar to tracking a person through scent. I can force the signature to present as a smell, but I normally use visual heatmap gestalts in my internal schema. I can see past histories and the present very well. I’m not good with precognition because I tend to influence the future instead of predicting it. Instead of following a person through time, I would nudge their path. Since physical senses are limited by space and time, and I am not limited by space or time, you could conclude that my psychic senses are superior to the fictional ones immortal vampires have in fiction.

Am I physically stronger than a person? Yes, if I tap into the darker, predatory side of me, I am faster, but it is not because of my physical body. I instinctively manipulate the probability of where energy will be, so I manipulate force and momentum. When a person tosses a coin in the air and manipulates the probability of it landing heads or tails, they are manipulating entropy and disordered rotational and mechanical energy.

Physically, entropy is sometimes a thermodynamic property of disordered rotational energy. So, in manipulating the coin toss, what is actually happening is a person is manipulating thermodynamic properties of things like the air the coin is moving through to influence the pressure that the air exerts on the coin to get it to land on the intended face. This is a stochastic process, so whether the air, the intermolecular forces of the coin, or both are responsible depends on the path that minimizes, or maximizes in some cases, action. I can move faster because I’ve manipulated the probability of me being at a certain place at a particular time, where I have made that the only future that will happen. If I am there at the time, then that means I have to be moving with a particular momentum. That retrocausally constrains configurations of energy by skewing statistical mechanics from the literal air around me or the living things around me, which pushes me forward. I am drawing kinetic energy from the environment or organisms in the environment to move faster or hit you harder.

To move faster, I can manipulate probabilities and the pressure of the air around me to propel me forward, much like how intermolecular forces or the pressure of gas particles colliding with the coin can interact with it as it moves. It’s like compressing gas: when gas is compressed, its volume decreases, meaning the same number of gas molecules now occupy a smaller space. Consequently, the frequency of collisions between gas molecules and the walls of the container increases. These collisions transfer momentum to the walls more frequently, exerting a greater force per unit area, leading to an increase in pressure. Compression also mechanically organizes the gas, as molecules are forced together and move in less random ways. When you make things less likely, you stretch out probability waves. When you increase the likelihood, you compress probability waves, so while the example was mechanical and classical, there is a quantum analog. There’s a relationship between probability manipulation, thermodynamics, and pressure that allows for the transfer of momentum.

It’s less preternatural strength and more probability manipulation. Whichever paths require the least amount of change or action are selected as channels. It’s less physical strength and more of an energetic exoskeleton. It also works on a magical level. If a magician is able to overcome my siphoning ability, how I latently manipulate high-frequency probability waves would inject chaos into and dissipate the harmonics of a spell. Probabilities that are time-dependent can be described as a sum of sines and cosines – waves and harmonics; therefore, how I shift probabilities creates a type of crystalline barrier. You either can’t get through it, or the nature of the spell changes as it passes through, which means I have effectively devoured it. See Fourier Transform for more information on that. So, I am stronger because of the probabilities and energy I manipulate, not because of an inherent preternatural strength. Without magic, I am pretty much weak and sickly, but with it and a source of magic nearby – a hostile magician, I am very formidable.

Am I sensitive to sunlight? Yes. It’s why people will never see me, usually until twilight.

This is your reminder that I’m a vampire. It’s not an aesthetic; I’m an actual vampire. I’ve conducted some experiments. I’ve taken samples of my blood as the experimental group and another person’s as a control, and created a ward to cut the blood off from any psychic or magical energy or influence. What happened is that the proteins in my blood started to denature, whereas the other sample of blood remained the same. We used a centrifuge and biochemical assays to determine this. Yes, I have all of this equipment. I was one of those kids who got chemistry sets, telescopes, and microscopes for Christmas, so I’ve always had a home lab ever since I was a teenager. The lab and occult parts of our home look like something straight out of a sci-fi movie. No, I will not post my labs online.

Psychic and magical constructs are types of dynamical entities with structures and periodic properties. If you have an RNG or REG, a Geiger counter, or a cloud chamber, you can measure a pattern or signature. You can measure a signal through patterns in noise. So, I wanted to verify that there indeed was some type of magical influence and measure it, and I wanted to see if my blood would interfere with someone else’s magic. We set up sensors and did an initial experiment to verify that there indeed was magical or psychic influence from another person’s magic, and then we tested if my blood had an effect. Yes, we controlled everything, and not just the blood. We did baseline measurements to understand the background noise and signals not associated with psychic or magical phenomena. We conducted control experiments where no magical or psychic influence was expected. To control for the confounding variable of my expectations, we had someone else do the experiment with proper blinding. If my blood actually absorbs magic, then there should be an increase in noise in the measurable signal.

What happened was that there was no effect with the other person’s blood, but with my blood, there was a decrease in the measured order and an increase in disorder until the data was just chance. That meant that the presence of my blood had an entropic effect on the magic influence. We can speculate because my blood absorbed the magic. That also means that my blood is a good binding agent for magic, which is why I use it in magical inks. My favorite ink to mix is dragon’s blood ink. I’ve been experimenting with other resins, though.

This means that without feeding, I’ll get sickly and that psychic and magical energy are drawn to and absorbed by my blood. I don’t have to actively do anything. Anything ambient will flow towards me, so magic done in my locality will arc towards me.

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.

I’m skeptical. Unless your metaphysical assertions and claims are epistemologically justifiable, I will regard it as fiction. If a person is insisting on the epistemological validity of an entire paradigm and theories for that paradigm, I am going to need Bayesian Statistics in addition to null hypothesis significance testing. I’m not one of those people who says that everything must be empirical, considering my metaphysical love is mathematics, and that is a priori, intuitive, not empirical, and objective. The bizarre thing about mathematics is that it is epistemologically not empirical; however, it is objective because 1+1 will always equal 2. An iconic property of fictions is that they are subjective, intersubjective, and dynamic – they mutate. Mathematics is not empirical; however, it is tautological, so it remains true in all cases.

Philosophically, the intuitive nature of mathematical knowledge is evidence, albeit weak evidence, for the existence of an ideal and noetic sphere. I believe that the level of intuition for conceptual mathematical entities is related to the intuition that goes into my psychic perception. I think that is why many prolific magicians are also polymaths. To my knowledge, some parapsychologists are exploring this; however, I have little evidence for that, so take that with a grain of salt.

Ontologically, I am flexible; however, I will treat the magical and occult paradigm as a convenient fiction. Ontology encompasses propositions about the existence of something, whereas epistemology is how we know that the proposition is valid. It is how we determine if that belief is justified. While I am deeply into magic and I understand that the boundaries between reality, illusion, and fiction are not as sharp as we would like to think, I make sure never to lose touch with reality.

At this point in my life as a magician, I am less interested in book clubs and creepy podcasts and more interested in replication and experimentation that I carry out myself. I’m skeptical and cynical. I will interact with occult and magical systems in the same way I would interact with Marvel, Warhammer 40K, the DC universe, etc. A lot of people clutch their pearls over that and like to argue that their paradigms, currents, traditions, and religions are “real”. Again, if you cannot scientifically prove to me their existence, they’re fiction to me. They are convenient fictions that people can use to produce effects; however, there is a tenuous connection between the existential import of that being and the effects since it is mediated through the intentions, expectations, and beliefs of a person. That’s where I am at.

I explored the more woo parts of occultism and the paranormal as a teenager and in my 20s. As someone in their 30s, I am too old to be playing pretend. And, I am deeply annoyed by millienals and Gen X’ers who are still fucking LARPing. We are too damn old.

This is one of my rather intimate posts. I have not decided whether I will post it publicly or privately. I am leaning towards the public. We shall see. It depends on where this post goes and where it ends up. I am experiencing a bout of existential loneliness, again. It may be triggered by watching magicians in my cohort cycle back, again. Alan Wake 2 gave me a different way of looking at circles. I kept thinking that people are stuck in a loop that starts and ends where it begins. This isn’t a loop. It’s a spiral where people can spiral upwards and ascend or downwards and descend into self-destruction. The insidious illusion of magic and magical communities is a sublime narrative, typically backed by some mythology, that makes people feel as if they are working towards something meaningful, sublime, and beyond them that will transform the world. Growing up in a religious and esoteric family, I was cynical because that sentiment is endemic to every spiritual and esoteric community and it normally preyed on people’s need to belong.

I was born with psychic abilities, and I discovered that I was different when I was 7. When I showed other people my abilities as a kid, I was punished, abused, and isolated. It wasn’t that they didn’t believe me; rather, they had a negative attitude about my very existence. Ever since I was a kid, I could generate blue sparks from my hands. When I realized I could do this, as a kid, I thought it was cool, so I showed off. I could also send jolts of energy through people by touching them. That was my first set of abilities that manifested at a young age.

The blue light and sparks don’t do anything on their own. Unlike in television shows, when I hit objects with it, it does nothing. The best it can do is change the electrostatic properties of things. That isn’t to say that is the scope of my abilities. Just the blue light I can generate doesn’t do much other than glow. But, it is flashy, so whenever I want someone to believe me, lighting up my hands is the first thing that I do. Considering other people can see it and they react to it, I know it is not a hallucination. Will you ever see a recording of me doing any of this? No.

According to my husband, my eyes glow, too. I am not quite sure how it works. One of the questions is if my eyes are glowing why don’t I see it, and how is that possible without blinding me? When my intent is a ball of entropy or randomness where the intent is to make all outcomes equally likely, it causes a distortion in light that shimmers. I normally am not vocal about these things because, for some reason, it sets people off. I have literally had a little group of people follow me around for years and years trying to disprove my existence.

That started this existential search for trying to figure out why I am the way I am when I was 10. I found out answers I wish I hadn’t, but that is a whole other thing. I can’t see past the betrayal enough to type coherently about that. I am seeing millennials who are as old as me who have been involved with paranormal communities for just as long cycling back to the boards they visited as teens, and I realized that they are spiraling.

My husband believes that magic is increasing in the world and that my psychological problems are because I run from issues. He has seen me do experiment after experiment trying to disprove the paranormal and the opposite happening where my reaction turns into me trying to gaslight myself, which is when he steps in. I don’t face things, and I do not face myself, so my husband believes that the key for me dealing with things is to face that I’m a paranormal entity living in a very weird world.

There was a distressing moment in my life where I tried to run away from an issue and paranormal forces created a teleological point where all roads led me to the same path. It was like walking through the front door and into the living room from the bedroom door instead of outside. I’ve experienced a less fantastical version of that looping behavior. When I tried to leave a city, completely coincidental and random events led me back there, though I had literally flown to the other side of the country. Now, married to my soul mate, I realized the looping was guiding me towards him.

Some people say I am insane. Honestly, I’d rather be insane than any of this being real. I’m more comfortable with the idea of this all being a delusion than it being real, but the facts line up, and no matter how many times I do experiments, the results are the same. When I was younger, I used to personalize it. I used to think that this was something I was going through; however, as I’ve gotten older, I’ve realized, it is actually this country. America is an occultic nation, and everyone here has skeletons in their past. No one is “normal,” and the mundane is just a facade. An illusion. For some reason, it doesn’t make me less existentially distressed. It actually does the opposite.

Do I believe in fate? Not in the conventional sense of the word. Think of the swing of a pendulum. As the pendulum swings, it traces a chaotic trajectory where the path it takes is related to where the you start the swing, so creates a bifurcation that is determined by the initial point of the swing; however, with each iteration of the swing, the pendulum runs out of energy and it spirals inward. Eventually, all points will lead to the final state of the pendulum hanging straight down because it ran out of energy. We can say that the inevitable and final state of the pendulum will be in that position, so we can think of that as a type of teleology. The intuitive assumption would be that running out of energy would be denoted by 0, therefore, 0 is typically an attractor. In actuality, 0 is usually a repeller. 1 is an attractor. An intuitive way to think about it is that something will happen, albeit we may not know what, so the odds of something happening are always 1. Therefore, all outcomes are attracted to 1. That is called a fixed point attractor, and it is a property of dynamical and chaotic systems. The ability for magical and psychic forces to create order, correlations, symmetries, and make one outcome more or less likely than another is an example of creating an attractor I.e. an orbital. It’s the result of chaos. We also see it in resonant systems.

We can think of someone like me as having a particular natural frequency, and we can think of external magical forces and systems as having a frequency close to my natural frequency. The fixed point attractor in this scenario would be a stable oscillation amplitude and phase. Once the system reaches this state, it would maintain a constant amplitude of oscillation. The amplitude and phase of the oscillation become fixed points, attracting the system towards a stable resonant state. That means I resonate with magic and am dynamically pulled towards paths with maximum magical action within stochastic processes where there are multiple possible paths. Nature minimizes or maximizes action. Why is this the case? My guess is that physical properties of my body match higher-dimensional patterns such that I am sensitive like iron is sensitive magnetic fields.

One of the reasons why I am skeptical of the conventional ideas of an afterlife or reincarnation is that it’s predicated on a sequential nature of time where we are born, we die, and we experience an afterlife. However, psychic abilities are temporally non-local; therefore, they exist outside of time. For example, a person who is clairvoyant and post-cognitive can psychically perceive events in the past that happened before they were born. And, there has been evidence in the journals of people who are psychic where the person not only had flashes of their death, but they also had flashes of their own funeral. The journals were found after their funeral. It means that the person had an OBE where they were observing their own funeral, albeit, at the time, they were alive. This means an aspect of us exists on a higher-dimensional plane before we are born and after we die that we can access while we are alive. Life and death are biological terms we apply to mortal things. This entity cannot die because it was never born or lives in a biological sense within the realm of mortals; therefore, it is immortal.

I do not think our souls migrate from body to body; instead, I think our physical bodies are lower-dimensional instances of a pattern, i.e., an entity. Think of it like this: squares and triangles are different shapes, and we can have an infinite number of different squares and different triangles that are different from each other. However, they are all instances of shapes. But, shape is an abstraction. All the squares are not the same nor are the squares triangles; however, all squares and triangles are instances of shapes, and all the different instances of squares are shapes. I don’t think we have individual souls that migrate; instead, I think we are different instances of a pattern that’s connected via a directed acyclic graph. People involved in Machine Learning would recognize directed acyclic graphs because they create a neural network architecture. In this case, I think it creates a psychic network architecture that connects different lives together as nodes, where the entire system, as an entity, learns. I don’t think it is one soul that passes from body to body. I think it is a network of entities.

I think what we think of as souls and past lives are different instances of people connected via a directed acyclic graph. My husband has been astral projecting to different realities as of late. I am skeptical, but the things he experiences match up with things. From the realities he goes to, all different versions of me are involved in something esoteric, with me being a Jedi in one. We are also together in each reality. I think I am pulling energy and experiences from different versions of myself where the entire system is an aggregate of my soul. So, holistically, I resonate with other versions of myself doing magic. Reincarnation makes little sense to me because it is predicated on a sequential nature to time when psychic phenomena is temporally non-local, so that aspect of us would be beyond life and death and immortal, albeit not invincible.

This is one of my rather intimate posts. I have not decided whether I will post it publicly or privately. I am leaning towards the public. We shall see. It depends on where this post goes and where it ends up. I am experiencing a bout of existential loneliness, again. It may be triggered by watching magicians in my cohort cycle back, again.

So, after witnessing many of my enemies’ lives falling apart, I assumed they were trying to cast spells on me. If you know, you know. I examined our house wards and discovered that my husband made a modification to give the protective measures a rather nasty retaliatory bite.

So, I went on a hunt and found what my husband did. My husband has no chill, so I feel sorry for those who got hit with what he put in there. It was a sympathetic and contagious magical measure that I taught him. You create an effigy of yourself with things like your hair and fingernail clippings so that it intercepts curses. Then you place it in a box with hemlock, nightshade, and items such as a consecrated and enchanted mirror. Yes, there was actual belladonna in the spell box.

It acts like a lightning rod for a curse, draws the curse away from you, and activates a counter-curse that draws on the sympathetic property of hemlock and nightshade. Sympathetic magic works via like interacts with and attracts like, so since curses, poison, and hemlock have like properties of causing harm, they interact via that association. The same goes for the mirror.

Contagious aspects of magic are similar to entanglement. The idea is that once things come in contact with each other, they are connected such that one can influence the other. With things that were a part of you that are separated, the “entanglement” is so strong that, in some cases, it can act as a substitution for you; therefore, a curse that uses your image will be drawn to that image, i.e., effigy.

My husband seems to have attached paper talismans that evoke Saturn, indicating that he wanted the curse to disrupt their lives by placing never-ending problems in their path. He didn’t tell me, of course, because he knew I would object. If you folks are reading this, that should teach you. While I won’t curse you, people in my life that love me might not be so forgiving.

My husband is a wolf therian – a werewolf, and he works within a more astrological, energy-working, and animistic paradigm than I do. While I am skeptical, his magic works. Though his powers are more subtle than mine, they are more potent. This is actually his ringtone on my phone for him, lol.

Werewolves Tribute – Howl

The song is called “Howl” by Florence and The Machine. They worked on the soundtrack for Snow White and the Huntsman. I come across as masculine online, but I am actually pretty feminine, and I have that silly fairy tale trope stuck in my head. I like fairy tale aesthetics because I am a princess in my head, lol. I know, how Victorian. I’m southern.

Paradigms are ontological assumptions, beliefs, and expectations about the world, shaping how we perceive recurring structures or points. On a psychological level, they are how we connect data points from our sensory experience or intuition to see the world, so paradigms are models. Magical paradigms are useful because they provide a framework to perceive our anomalous experiences, such as psychically perceived entities, or altered states of consciousness different from our baseline level of consciousness.

One of the biggest challenges for people just starting out in magic is that they are locked into a particular way of perceiving the world. However, when those paradigms become too internalized, it can lock us into a way of seeing the world. The sudden, violent shift in experience that can come from something that turns our world upside down, an initiatory event, gnosis, or a shift in consciousness from drugs can create a liminal space that opens people up to a magical way of seeing the world. I’m not a fan because I’ve seen people develop more obsessive than enlightened relationships with magic because of things like that. That and people’s ability to do magic tends to become linked to that state. It is like that person who manifests psychokinesis out of anger. It is not very useful nor healthy to have to work your way up into a state of anger or fear to do something.

I do a lot of regression analysis. In regression analysis, there are points where the goal is to statistically estimate the relationship among dependent variables to connect the dots and create a model. The thing with these models is that there is a point where that model is no longer valid, and it is not an exact fit. That is similar to how paradigms work. They create a model of the world that connects the dots and shapes how we perceive things; however, there is a point where those models are not pragmatically effective.

For every paradigm, our intuitions, perceptions, and expectations break down and become continuous everywhere and differentiable nowhere, i.e., a singularity. All models are wrong, and all models are useful in a very narrow context. I have seen a trend of occultists internalizing paradigms when, in actuality, we should be treating them conventionally as languages. We use language out of convention where a multilingual person can switch back and forth between languages based upon convention. It also implicitly allows for the creation of an abstract and virtual space within the person’s mind that they can switch to. A type of daemon that holds that virtual world.

Paradigms are world views that connote categories, that are dimensions, and relationships among those dimensions create planes and a structured set. Paradigms are supersets of gestalts, defined entities, properties, and language. So, conventionally, you can treat them as a language since a language is the expressions that emerge from the structured sets of the paradigms ontology. Virtually, ontological languages define virtual layers, so you can treat magical systems as virtual machines.

I never ever interact with magical systems on low levels; rather, it’s all high level and abstract. There’s a level of skepticism there, on a low level, albeit there is a temporary suspension of belief. Technique-wise, I create ontological domains and systems of daemons, i.e., servitors, where the servitors function as personas that I can shift in and out of via ostension.

Ontologically, languages can define universes. I am skipping over the epistemological and ontological issues of whether or not these universes exist. In Boolean Logic, whether or not an instance of a set exists such that we can measure it is irrelevant, so from a Boolean perspective, we can just focus on the logical operations without getting into having an instance of that universe we can point to.

The idea of an ontological language defining a universe may seem pretty abstract. An entity is just a thing. It’s an object. I’m a physical entity; therefore, I have physical properties like Chemistry. Chemistry has things like formulas which we can express and measure in the symbolic language of Math. I am a physical entity that exists in the physical world where my existence emerges from physical rules and properties, so physical relationships and symmetries are intrinsic to me.

Analytically, paradigms are abstractions of symbols, structured sets, and define virtual worlds via the stories that emerge. We can treat magical paradigms as analogous to the high levels of computers where an Operating System is a virtual layer and machine. Beyond a convenient, concrete analogy, I am not saying that our brains are computers or that magic can be grounded in any computational model. It’s a metaphor. We can treat magical systems as virtual layers; therefore, we can avoid internalizing magical paradigms if we abstract it layer and layer of symbolism.

I am simply saying that we can approach different magical paradigms as operating in different universes, which allows us to abstract and use it in ways that do not displace our initial way of interacting with the world. We can intuitively approach it as we do a fictional universe or the rules of a video game.

So creating systems of abstractions is the same thing as virtualizing something. I’m a Linux User, but sometimes I have to use Windows. I run a virtual machine when I have to use Windows. I treat magical paradigms the same way. I utilize magical systems within layers of abstractions to create a sand-boxed off virtual realm to keep negative effects at bay. Creating a magical system of your own and translating one system into another version via interpretation creates a virtual instance that you can enhance by further abstracting it via homotopies. The instance of a magical entity from a magical paradigm is isolated from the rest of me via layers of symbolic abstractions that leave it within its own virtual layer.

Does the existence of magic make me think physical reality is a simulation? No. The elegant expression of a mathematical statement is the reduction of it to a True or False answer. When trying to prove something by induction, you’re essentially looking for a case that is True or False. A language is a superset of entities that are symbols joined together by operators. Languages can be reduced to base 2, or binary strings. Any answer to a question or a description that can be mathematically described can be modeled via a binary string and expressed digitally.

Simulation theories are just as largely unfalsifiable. From an inductive perspective, both simulation theories and beliefs about intelligent design converge on the same thing. Dev and God, in that context, connote the same thing. The testable parts of whether our world is a simulation are looking for artifacts. While the idiom “glitch in the matrix” relates to paranormal things, the evidence would be more mundane. An example of an artifact is the set speed of a CPU as compared to the speed of a simulation. The speed of a simulation is limited by the speed of a CPU; therefore, it can create an artifact. The physical equivalent of lagging would be a good indicator along with spontaneous loss of resolution I.e. continuous, smooth things suddenly become discrete, sharp, and broken.

No, I don’t believe the universe is a simulation. However, the existence of magical and psychic phenomena implies that the physical world is emergent and therefore a phase state. In a similar way, ice water and liquid water are phase states, the physical world is a phase state that’s metaphorically harder, denser, more ordered, and more cohesive. I believe the world is

like a crystal that emerges from a psychic domain. It would be a solid as compared to a gas, albeit there is a case for time being more like a liquid since time flows.
