Those that have followed my writings for a few years know that I am not a ritualist and don’t really subscribe to words of power. But as I begin working with the lower energies new insights and concepts come to me that I had not given serious consideration before. Some of them are quite simple and straight forward.
For example, enacting a physical ritual allows the physical body to participate and that brings deeper energies into play than if there was no physical ritual. In a way it is a no brainer. The ritual itself is not important but allowing the physical body to participate and add its own energies to the mix is important!
The same might be said for words of power. The Rosicrucians like so many other traditions have their vowel sounds or words which are encouraged to be intoned during ritual or meditation. Many magickal traditions have words of power and magickal phrases.
I am going to cut straight through the BS and get to the point. Intone the sound or word “Ohm” and extend it for as long as you can. What happens? You can feel your entire body vibrate! Think about that for a few moments. Your entire body is vibrating in harmony. Each cell is vibrating and adding its energy to the sound or song as the case may be.
Now add the energy of focused intention! Your focused intention is using the very energy of your vibrating cells to assist your magick! Just think how powerful that is!
But the sounds or words that you intone or sing should have personal meaning to you! That way they are more focused with intent! If they don’t mean anything to you they are useless! The words and the sounds and the movements have to come from you or they are not as effective.
Let’s take another example that makes OAK magickal practice different. Many magick workers use sigils as a means to bypass the psychic censor. Why would you want to bypass the psychic censor? Because part of your conscious awareness is in conflict with your magickal purpose and you want to get around it! That’s cheating! My next post in this new series will talk about how working with the energy ball meditation allows personal awareness to move smoothly from level to level so you don’t need to worry about the psychic censor!
