So, it is a new year, and with a new year we usually decide for a fresh start or new year’s resolutions; and I am no different. In fact as a practicing magician, this is even more true for me than most average people.
For me and this year, I was inspired and led to ditch the Law of assumption practices and trends, similarly with Law of attraction too. This is as it is taught on Youtube and TikTok; especially the whole EIYPO and Manifesting a Specific person as they teach it. Why? I could see the toxic effects it was having on me as I did my affirmation and Law of assumption experiments, that I did right up to mid-December 2023. Also, I took a look round at the followers and “coaches” that I was experiencing in this trend, and comparing it with my results, found that a lot of it was based on pseudo science and pseudo spirituality, or at least wasn’t reliable, empirical or repeatable like magick and occult techniques are. (Now I know a lot of people may want to argue the fact or opinion I just put there, but this is based on my experience and judgement at the time of the realisation and the time of writing, as well as this being how I express that realisation). Now I am now throwing all New Thought, Law of Attraction or Law of Assumption out of the window, as there are tiny fragments of truth within it. However, the way modern and post modern “coaches” and “content producers” were putting it out there, felt toxic and did not match my experiences or wrote off my experiences in too much of a materialistic and narrow and uneducated way.
I was being led by unseen forces and my own true will / self and my vision quests and dreams; in modern law of assumption, these are written off or put to just the mind and self. That is not so and shows how off the initiation and truth they are (from the magi worldview). I was being led to get back to my truth and my true path as a modern day Bard and Druid, or Bard and Magi. I started a new course for myself, followed it with the meditations and exercises it gave and collected all the materials of my results. I did it at the end of 2023 and for the first week of 2024. This reset me, (as I was informed by an inner guide) and woke me up from the illusion of the falsehoods or improper use of Law of assumption.
This led me to my own path of initiation (a topic I will write more on and produce more video content on at a later time) with some new goals and projects, especially 2 big chief aims/projects/goals and 1 mini project for this year. They include my first and current novel I am in the middle of drafting, becoming a professional occultist and occult content producer (like people on Gaia TV etc) and a couple of Occult books with accompanying video documentaries that I aim to finish and launch this year. I was led to the magickal workings for them via chaos magick and shamanic techniques like vision quests and dream working. This has set me on a mini initial path working and a larger path working beyond that.
This means I have some major and minor projects in the works and then coming out; a new identity I am transfiguring into as in professional writer, content producer and professional occultist; and a new approach I will be taking then expressing.
I hope to see you all along the way as well as I hope to be really inspired by this new path. Thanks for reading and see you in the next videos and posts.
