General Occultism / Re: Magick – Fulfilled Wishes,...

I don't want to keep updating the PDF since it's in a good position. I do however want to share some further thoughts.
'Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.'
'Love is the Law, Love under Will.'
The Law is to Seek Fulfillment. A Law saying anything else would not be worth taking seriously.
Fulfilment consists of two aspects - To will your True Will and to love your True Love.
However, if 'Love is the Law', then why is to 'Do what thou wilt' the whole of the Law?
Because by loving your True Love, who shares your True Will, you become vastly better at doing this Will. So, from the other direction, to do your True Will with full force, you need to love your True Love.
Doing your True Will is the Whole of the Law, because it implies Love. Conversely, Love is the Law because it follows from the True Will.
Update 19.11.22
Crowley writes about this topic in Liber II: "Elsewhere it is written— surely for our great comfort—"Love is the law, love under will."
This is to be taken as meaning that while Will is the Law, the nature of that Will is Love. But this Love is as it were a by-product of that Will; it does not contradict or supersede that Will; and if apparent contradiction should arise in any crisis, it is the Will that will guide us aright."
I seems to me that the connection of Love and Will via the Guardian Angel is the best way to make sense of these lines.

The Assault on Reality / Re: CHELSEANACHT 2021 | Unfa...
Last post by USA_MUTUALIST - October 01, 2021, 04:48:02 AMOver the last few years, as I've learned more about tech and absorbed myself more into the world of earning money, my strangeness has faded quite a lot, but around every corner and in the night when I sleep at times, I still get faint glimpses of other realms, and I am thankful people like you are out there fighting this good fight. Fascism for me, isn't just an ideology, or a people, it's a cancer, and it can even get us to hate ourselves at times. As a person who has struggled to free my mind from the chains of Christianity, mental illness, and internalized homophobia my entire life, I recognize fascism not as a force outside myself, but as a Satan within, trying to slowly devour me from the inside.
For me, patience and compassion for the person driving slowly in front of me is anti-fascist action. For me, self love is anti-fascist action. For me, every expression of peace and creativity in the face of a world that just wants to wring us dry like some kind of commodity is anti-fascist action.
I hope you all well in the years to come. May the golden age dawn once and for all and warm these bones from this long winter's cold.

The Art Lab / Poetry - A life worth living
Last post by JadeCrow - September 15, 2021, 12:53:44 AMI am a man
That was broken and battered
Longing for death
For a life that never mattered
Like a mirror my mind was shattered
My hopes
My dreams
All came to an end
As the cursed dancer thrashed her whip
But that was the past
And this is the present
To me each day is a gift
And each coming day is a treasure
Regardless of the pressure
Simply because
I am a man
That was broken and battered
But in life
I have found things that mattered
I feel
And therefore I am
Even tho my emotions
Are like a bursting dam
I fight for myself
And for those around me
I regret nothing
For nothing can hold me
Whether I live or die
I would not mind
Because life is worth living
Even when I am dead inside

How do you propose avoiding the inevitable growth of more fascism in response to a direct assault on it? Fascism thrives on having Enemy Others to blame for everything. How would we avoid becoming one more collection of "useful idiots" who gave them a convenient enemy to focus on?
Not fighting fascism at all to avoid becoming its enemy is a super bad argument, sorry. But I'll humor you by saying that it is in my opinion extremely unlikely that fascists are going to get the public at large to rally against a bunch of chaos wizards in the short term, and even if they do, it'll just bring more people to our side by making us more visible to other people who are against fascism. And the factions that are coming for us, well, there is ample evidence that they have already started prior to this operation.
Fascism is a cancer, and if you don't fight against it it will eventually turn against and consume everything and everyone that isn't itself, until it runs out of "others" to hate and begins to turn inward and self-cannibalize.

The Assault on Reality / CHELSEANACHT 2021 | Unfash t...

Chelseanacht is coming.
'UNFASH THE WEB' is my suggestion for this year's theme. LS and the DKMU is inherently anti-authoritarian. Exploration of differing realities is directly opposed to mono-culture and ideologies that seek to enforce it. Sure, in a limited space and time you can have a mono-culture, or a reality that is intolerant of opposing realities in the same space. This is necessary for there to be any distinct things at all, apart from one undifferentiated blob.
But authoritarian ideology wishes to impose itself upon all spaces and at all times. That is the difference.
Furthermore, for exploration to be possible, free travel between these realities is necessary. One would think any dipshit could figure out that the Assault on Reality is antifascist and anarchic, but apparently this isn't the case, and forces attempt to co-opt our work. Therefore I suggest that the intention of this year's sigil and associated workings be to reinforce the anti-authoritarian intent of the AoR and push out or destroy these recuperative forces from the web and all spaces which it touches.
This is not the same as destroying local order or local realities. We want a multitude of realities, overlapping and with roads between. It is the same as destroying vast mono-cultures which attempt to be or present themselves as The One Reality and power structures which rely on the inability of their slaves to escape to somewhere better. Particularly anything which propagates itself by enslaving the mind and spirit of its adherents by hiding the existence of alternatives, or presenting these alternatives as unrealistic. This includes, but is not limited to national bureaucracies, capitalism, domestic abuse, religious cults, schools, prisons and police, most mental illnesses, media saturation, poverty and terrorism committed by large military powers.
The assault on (consensus) reality has always proposed that the disappearance of magic in our worlds is caused by the suppression of imagination due to these, and allied, factors. Let's make that really clear to everyone. Let's make it so that any archist or statist who touches the web is ensnared and drowned in empathic knowledge, or else burned explosively.

The Art Lab / Memories and Mysticism Tribute
Last post by Robert Solvec - June 16, 2021, 12:01:23 AMI don't know how many people here are into this kind of thing, but I was listening to stuff online as per usual and smiled when I heard a navy seal nonchalantly defend magic and supernatural phenomena like it's common knowledge. It makes sense to me that people in the SOCOM field would stumble into various states of gnosis considering the mental and physical extremes they push themselves towards on a regular basis (as well as the indigenous cultures they interact with), and I was glad to hear that it seems SO1 Marcus Luttrel is no stranger to it. So I decided to tag with a simple art video
It's kinda funny because I get the impression that Rogan is a believer too but both of them seem to be keeping the language 'sterile' and trying not to sound too woo woo for a mainstream channel. Anyways, nothing revelatory but I found it interesting and inspiring. To summarize, the night before this conversation, Marcus woke up late at night from a thunderstorm, and Rogan also woke up that night after having a dream where he was experiencing Luttrel's memories about dying of thirst and having blood and dirt caked in his mouth as he was fleeing from the Taliban forces that ambushed and killed the rest of his team, one of those strong synchronicities. Luttrel's story was turned into the film Lone Survivor (2013) and I'm amazed that he seems to be functioning very well with his PTSD for everything he went through
