Today I went to the social thing at the British Museum for the Lapis Companions group

Today I went to the social thing at the British Museum for the Lapis Companions group. It was like having our own private interest-specific tour, it was cool. It was nice to see David and Sorita again, last time I saw them I was 14 nearing 15, so about five years ago. We were in the museum and Sorita turns to me and says "Are you Neil?" Ha.We went to Atlantis bookshop after and got given Black Magic (The chocolates!), haha. Then we went to a pub and I talked to some really nice people, joked and so on.It was good, and really lovely considering how else I could have spent my Monday.

You Need To Get This Book, It's Great!

On Friday a package came containing one of my presents, which for some unknown reason was granted to me early, and I hadn't even asked or done anything to soften anyone up, hurrah! It was Abrahadabra by Rodney Orpheus. It's a book about Thelemic magic, and miles better than the book Lon Milo wrote.It goes in order through all the techniques and things you should be learning starting with a chapter on Asana, then the LBRP, Assuming god forms, Liber Resh, Sacred spaces, Invocation, etc. The majority of rituals in the book are the authors own, so instead of the LBRP as known by the golden dawn you have his Nu Sphere ritual. He also includes an amazing consecration ritual involving the thelemic deities and the practitioner assuming the form of Mercury. I've never seen a ceremonial consecration ritual in a book before (Well aside from the key of Solomon, but that involves all manner of stupid things like obtaining the blood of an owl, etc). He also includes this really great mass ritual similar to the Gnostic Mass and Mass of the Phoenix, but not so elaborate or involving the slicing a Phillips screwdriver mark into your chest. It's called the Mass of Baphomet and involves one person assuming the form of baphomet and another person being in charge of performing a banishing ritual (Though you could use it for any deity, and you could do it alone if you liked). The banisher does the LBRP or whatever and the other person assumes the god form, then someone reads a poem or a quote or says something about the deity, then everyone chants something appropriate and builds up energy until the person assuming the god form shouts forth a formula (I can't remember the spelling and can't seem to find it in the book but it was something like Lahstal) and transfers the energy of the god he/she was assuming into the host and wine that lay before them, everyone partakes and the banisher banishes once more. I'd really like to try it out, so if you're interested then give me a shout. There is even a recipe for cakes of light at the back of the book!So yeah, it's a really excellent book and I highly recommend you go and buy it.The LBRP discussion group got me doing the LBRP every day again, and this book has got me doing Asana again and now adding Liber Resh into the frame, and more than likely I'll be assuming god forms by Monday. Ha!

Where Is The Damn Moon??

Everything is a lie!The weatherman said tonight we would have the highest full moon for twenty years. Lies, there was no moon.I've looked and looked, and even went outside and looked, and there is no moon.The moon does not exist.What is this "moon" you speak of?Lies.

I Won't Be Going To The Temple Again.

"How you have fallen from heaven, O morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations! You said in your heart, "I will ascend to heaven; I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of the sacred mountain. I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like The Most High." (Isaiah 14:12-14)

Horror Scope

As I was checking my e-mail (Of which it seems LJ has decided to spit forth all of the comments it wasn't e-mailing from the entire month of November!) and noticed my horoscope. It's a total piss take, have a look:Because I'm so a two faced bimbo... Okay, well I'm sure the other pisceans aren't!I think most horoscopes out there now are just big jokes, with no actual worth in them. Which is a shame because I'm sure there must be something to this reading the stars lark, but horoscopes are putting me off of it...

Sad Face

I fell over today in the street, like some sort of oafish teletubbie.I have gashes across my palms like little stigmata.A little Japanese lady came to see if I was okay, then a teenager laughed at me.I didn't cry though, I was brave. I'm a big boy.Ouch :(I also have a little bit of glass stuck in my foot, due to dropping a (thankfully empty) pint glass on the floor and botching the clean up job before walking all over the place barefoot. It's really very small and I wouldn't know it was there if it wasn't for the fact that everytime I put pressure on that part of my foot I feel a tiny stab of pain. I can't get it out, it mocks me with it's glinting in the light everytime I try.

When I'm Homeless, Can I Come And Live With You??

I got very bored of my penny saving existence, stuck in all day looking at endless lists of Admin jobs in London that I'm not eligaile for due to lack of experience, age, and so on (I think I may have to soon give in and seek training in something, blah) that I decided to go for a walk down the highstreet.Well one thing lead to another and I ended up buying jewelry for my parental's christmas present, a jumper for myself and three dvds - Breakfast at tiffanys, Gattaca, and Blah de blah de blah of the spotless mind - which I haven't seen before, so I'm hoping it's not rubbish.Then I brought lunch.Then I went home.Then the sky fell down, or possibly it was just an acorn that resembled the sky in some way..Of the 160 phone bill paid off, I still have about 160 to yet pay.Poo

I Am Most Pleased

For months I thought that I had lost a CD from my complete radio series of The Mighty Boosh. Until today when looking at it I realized I was a fool, and that the case clearly stated it contained three, not four CDs. I am overjoyed as I can now listen to them all day long."So my mom used to hide in a bunker at breakfast and throw eggs at me and call me Wimpwarb; And my Dad used to dress up and scream at us 'I'm a chinese bear, walking around the wig hut!'" Yes, it's quite crazed but most excellent."He tricked me with his face and voodoo"

What A Waste of An Afternoon

Nothing quite like going to a job interview and being offered 6,000 a year for a mon-fri admin job to make you feel worthless.I'm rather disgusted.Needless to say, I didn't accept!If I were a woman I could have got knocked up like most of the girls I went to school with and live off the same amount in child benefits. Then I could spend all day at home reading and teaching my bastard child how to defecate into a porcelain bowl.

Weekend of Weird

My weekend was UnusualOn Saturday I went to South London with maeghanne, who kindly let me be her guest to a Gnostic Mass held by the OTOs AMeTH Lodge. We had been told to get there for twelve, but didnt actually mass until like three or four in the evening. Everyone there was normal and friendly. No one came across as Behold I am the super Thelemite, Neo Mega Therion. Behold how I wear nothing but black and invent new aeons each week. Aha we are now in the aeon of Bast, now you are all tragically old and must follow my formula, bwahaha like you tend to get in Pagan circles (or at least the forums!). A lot of people there were massing for the first time and had varying degrees of understanding of Thelema, so I didnt feel overwhelmed or anything like that.Later on in the day the mass began, the Deacon came into the waiting room and talked. She explained the signs and movements we should do during the mass, and explained about the cakes of light. Okay, for those who dont know, a cake of light is the communion host for the mass. It does contain the menstrual blood of the priestess, but its a tiny drop into one cake, which then gets burnt to ashes and added to the rest of the cake mixture. The other ingredients are olive oil, abramelin oil, wine leavings and abramelin oil. We went upstairs to the Temple room. At one end of the room was the super altar, the other end was the tomb where the priest awaited inside, in-between them were two altars one containing a large bowl for water, the other was were the deacon stood and the incense went on it too I think, so that must have been the fire altar. We all sat to the sides of the temple room on large cushions. The deacon and the people said the Thelemic creed followed by three vibrated Aumgns. After that the priestess flanked by two children entered the temple. The priestess goes to the tomb and lets out the priest, who is dead. She then makes him live again and commands him to give a benediction to the congregation, to his complaint of I am but a man, how can I? she makes him a priest. The priest then puts her on the altar, and she becomes Nuit, the goddess. Then by calling upon the gnostic saints and all manner of things he comes on par with her as a god. Together they then infuse this godliness into the cakes of light and wine. At some point during this part of the mass they both scream Hail or something like that into the cup and it blew me away. So yeah, then the congregation takes communion and takes of this godliness (Such is the Gnostic element of the mass). We did this by walking to the super altar, taking a cake from one of the children and crossing it over the paten, then we consumed it and took a small cup of wine, which we crossed over the priestess and drank. We then turned to face the tomb standing in the form of osirus slain and said There is no part of me that is not of the gods. Although I didnt do this No, I went to the super altar, took a cake, crossed it. Put it in my mouth and tried to eat it but it wouldnt go down, so I took the wine and crossed it over the priestess and tried to swallow it down with the wine, which kinda worked. Then I turned around, crossed my arms and Choked! Ack ack ack There is no part of me that is not of the gods Hahahahaha!It was an amazing experience though. Afterwards we went to the caf downstairs and had dinner, it was fun.I really want to go to the next mass, if I still have a great time and dont choke to death, I may even ask for Minerval!On Sunday I didnt go to Temple because I had plans in the evening, so I just did a small arati at midday for Nirshrimhadeva and sang some Bhajans.At four I was in Covent Garden, at the London Discussion Group at treadwells bookshop. randomkev21 was running it and sparkx and casparian were there too. We just discussed what topics the future meetings would be about and agreed that wed do an hour of discussion and an hour of practical work. The first one we chose was Colour symbolism, which I have to admit Im not so keen on, but we have some good ones coming up Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram, Twirling Mantra and Deity Worship (I said Id show everyone how to do Arati for that one, gulp). So yeah, fun times ahead.
