Lessons of the Elephant God
Today I did a working with Elephant, a check-in if you will. He said I was making good progress, learning to sit in the moment, but that he also noted that I still would sometimes get too focused on projected outcomes. And he is right. I’ve been getting more comfortable sitting in the present moment, [...]
Travels into time
I went into my ritual room day. I’d fully cleaned it yesterday, and I was ready to get started. I place different pictures and statues of Elephant around the room, including a poster of Elephant made by Ravenari that Lupa got me as a Christmas gift. I dressed in my ritual garb, including a necklace [...]
Paratheatre Working with Elephant
Another working with Elephant tonight, using the paratheatre techniques I learned about. First I did stretches and exercises to get me warmed up and slipped out of mundane thinking, then transitional jogging to put me into a liminal space. As a side note, being so engaged in physical exertions was quite useful…it’s something I’ll be [...]
No matter where you are, there you are
This morning, ever time my mind started to wander or fantasize, Elephant would speak up and say, “You’re wandering.” And it happened a lot. When I think about it, it’s happened most of my life. I started fantasizing a lot when I was young. It was one of my defenses, one of my ways of [...]
“Forget Time to Find Yourself”
I’ve been reading Toward an Archaeology of the Soul by Antero Alli. I’ve met Antero once and we talked for about half an hour, and I’ve read his first book on the eight circuit model, but this work resonates with me a lot more, because in it, I see elements of my own practices and [...]
Some musings on Time and Desire
I did another meditation with Elephant tonight about time. In this case we ended up focusing on desire and how when desire turns into obsession, it actually makes it much harder to manifest a possibility into reality. Elephant explained this by showing how desire tends to push a person’s thoughts toward the future, as opposed [...]
Walking the web with Elephant
Tonight I decided to do some work with Elephant and time. I went into my ritual room and put on the necklace I associate with Elephant and the bracelet of Elephant hair and then pulled out the statue which wears the other bracelet of Elephant hair, as well as my painting for elephant. then I [...]
Space/Time Connection Working
I’ve been getting pinged by the Spider Goddess of time quite a bit since I switched over from emptiness to Time to come and do a getting to now you ritual of sorts. It was that this evening, but also more than just that. I went to my ritual room and pulled out the voyager [...]
Into Time and Space
After I finished my emptiness ritual and had cleansed myself of the paint, I moved right into the ritual to accept time as the new element. I put on the bracelet of elephant hair, and the elephant necklace and put before me the painting to elephant. I asked elephant if elephant would allow me to [...]
Time Magic: Work with Elephant
I’m prepping to switch from the Element of Emptiness to the Element of Time. My work with the element of Time will likely be quite different from that of the previous workings. I’m working with a lot of entities, and already have been given a diagram of sorts that shows the positioning of each entity. [...]
