There comes over me the ‘buzzing’ state that heralds an out-of-body experience, but although it fails to develop, neither does it fully recede. It settles into a pulsing rhythm, quite unpleasant, but I decide to put up with it. My body is guided to a specific place, as if I were floating feet-first. This state [...]

The Visions of DEO, MAZ and LIT (Aethyrs 7 through 5)
Posted in Astral, tagged aethyr, dreaming, Enochian magick, lucid dream on November 27, 2011 | 4 Comments »
The visions of the aethyrs are becoming subtler, harder to attain, and yet – surprisingly – more mundane and personal, as I approach the end of this five-year working. (Or has it been even longer?) The Vision of DEO (Aethyr 7) I’d not had a lucid dream in ages, so this working was an experiment: [...]
The Vision of ZIP (Aethyr 9)

I am having a non-lucid dream that my bed is in the office at my place of work. I have an appointment with Sally, to train her in some software I have written. She turns out to be quite personable, but I realise I’m wearing only pyjamas and wonder if they’re clean. I mention this [...]
The Vision of ZAX (Aethyr 10)

I am walking on grass, approaching the house where I go on retreat, and I’m full of joy to be back. The feeling that I have come home is so strong that I become conscious. There is a huge field, ringed by trees. I call up at the sky, ‘I wish to scry ZAX, the [...]
The Vision of ICH (Aethyr 11)

I was walking a complex route to another part of the city when I realised I was dreaming, so I cried up at the sky: ‘I wish to scry the eleventh aethyr, ICH!’ I didn’t wake, but carried on with my journey, noticing that the route now seemed to be trending downwards. There was a [...]
The Vision of LOE (Aethyr 12)

I am looking through a window at the rain. Realising I am dreaming, I haul myself through the glass and shout the evocation at the sky: ‘I wish to scry LOE, Aethyr Twelve!’ I feel my body dissolve and I wake. But I sense the lucid state is still close, so I make myself still [...]
The Vision of ZIM (Aethyr 13)

It takes a long time before I find the lucid state, but finally I’m in my parents’ house, looking out through the window of my old bedroom, and I realise I must be dreaming. ‘I wish to scry the thirteenth aethyr, ZIM,’ I shout, and push myself through the window, which feels mushy like jelly. [...]
Scrying Enochian Aethyrs in the Lucid Dreaming State
Posted in Astral, Etheric, tagged Aleister Crowley, Enochian magick, lucid dream on February 15, 2011 | 4 Comments »
‘By doing certain things certain results will follow,’ wrote Aleister Crowley. Makes sense. But what are the parameters for ‘doing certain things’? For instance, to scry the Enochian aethyrs one recites the Nineteenth Enochian Call. But what is ‘reciting the Nineteenth Enochian Call’? And what happens if we decide not to bother? I tried an [...]
The Vision of OXO (Aethyr 15)

I’m looking at a book that I’ve written, filled with coloured images and text. A critic’s voice says approvingly, ‘It is a book of parodies. Some are gentle and some are cruel, but all are united in being parodies.’ [Perhaps this is a key for how to read what follows.] Then I become aware of [...]
More Demon-Hunting: Gremory and Malphas

Gremory I was wandering in recreation grounds when I decided to continue the demon experiment. The grass was thin and the soil sandy, so I traced a triangle in the ground with my finger. Two men approached, one of them a colleague from work, and watched me from a respectful distance. The first demon that [...]
