The Thought Form & The Egregore...

Astral Creatures Born Deep From Inside The Mind Of The Black
Magician

Hey Lucian, it's S. Ben Qayin here.

What I consider to be Magic, is nothing other than science. What else can it be?
The definition of Science is:

Theintellectualandpracticalactivityencompassingthe
systematicstudyofthestructureandbehaviorofthe
physicalandnaturalworldthroughobservationand
experiment.~OxfordDictionary

Is that not what the study and practice of Magic is ? Magicians study the structure
of the universe and what it is composed of in its totality, in order to use advanced
scientific/occult techniques in experiment, gaining experience through observation of
result. One does not generally think of Magic as being a system of advanced scientific
techniques, but that is exactly what it is when broken down and examined (as I did in
my work, The Book of Smokeless Fire). The only true way to do that is to study all the
different forms magic takes, and make comparisons based on technique and result. It is
a course of study I am grateful to know has no end.

And, as Magicians are utilizing scientific techniques to gain insight into the scientific
world, on occasion scientists too, utilize occult techniques to understand the mind,
reality and existence. In 1972 a group of nine scientists from Ontario Canada decided to
do a study on Thought Forms, and if they could create a consciousness they could
interact with by giving it a name and detailed history. After several weeks of trying to
make contact with the entity or thought form Philip, they began to gets results. When
asked, the created entity would recite its life and history with the exact same detail as
the scientists assigned it. It responded to questions by rapping upon the table the
scientists gathered around in their sessions.

"As Athena was sprung from the mind of Zeus, so too does the black magician give birth
to entities through their thoughts."

In essence this occult entity or thought form was created in a lab for the scientific
purpose of proving a fictional reality, can become a factual reality. The implications of
this experiment are vast, spanning the question of consciousness and where it
originates from, to reality and the ability to mold it to our expectations.

This is the area where science and magic cannot be separated or divided.

Now we are seeing that our reality, is what we make of it. Through our thoughts and
Intent, we are gods of our lives and destinies.

This brings the conversation back around to the idea of creating an entity to our
specific designs and needs. These Thought Forms or Egregores are quite powerful, as
they stem from the mind of the Black Magician. As Athena was sprung from the mind of
Zeus, so too does the black magician give birth to entities through their thoughts. Phil
Hine states:

As this is very true, I personally find creating an egregore for a specific task or goal
that pertains directly to me, far more beneficial. I view egregores as familiars that come
and go, existing until I no longer need them, when their purpose has been fulfilled.

It is very important for the black magician to mind their thoughts, as universes are
created and destroyed with them.

The egregore can be created purposefully or not. Many times such Intent and
emotion is put into a specific ideal or goal, that one is created as a sort of side effect.
The black magician not even being aware of its creation or existence. It is very
important for the black magician to mind their thoughts, as universes are created and
destroyed with them. Though the process to create an egregore purposefully, often is a
bit of a mystery. Many have come to me and asked my help in their creation, or delivery
them the secrets of the process. Therefore, I shall indulge the curiosities and lay down a
practical approach for the creation of such an entity.

1. Be clear in what it is you wish to accomplish. Know your goal without question.

2. Visualize how the egregore will take form. What does it look like ?

3. List the abilities the entity will possess. What functions does it need to
perform ?

 4. Name it accordingly with the task it is to fulfill. The name should be unique and
personal.

Once these steps have been completed, the black magician will possess the
keys to command the entity in the way they see fit, for the reason it was created.

5. Create a magical circle and triangle of arte, may I suggest using the Trinity of
Triangles (Found within, The Black Book of Azathoth);

6. Call forth the entity (use your own specific evocation), visualize it forming within
the Trinity of Triangles.

The more you call forth and work with the egregore, the more powerful it becomes.
At first begin with small tasks you assign for it to accomplish, then build up from there. A
months time is perfect for the full realization of the created entity. I suggest creating it
and calling it forth on the new moon. And, as the moon gains in power night after night,
so will the strength and tangibility of the egregore as the black magician continues to
work with it.

Once the black magician realizes they have the ability to not only shape their reality,
but also to create intelligent beings using their Intent, visualization and energy, the world
becomes openly accessible. Nothing can stop a force that can create or destroy the
boundaries of reality. Go forth and become your own god
