As leis da magia derivam dos Sete Princ'ipios Herm'eticos, que s~ao universais,
eles regem os experimentos m'agicos.
As leis da magia s~ao:
MENTALISMO - princ'ipio pelo qual a mente humana abre-se para o universo e interage com a mente c'osmica, abrindo os portais para a luz do conhecimento communal.
CORRESPOND^ENCIA - princ'ipio da manifestac~ao do universo hologr'afico, onde a integrac~ao do ser humano com o cosmo se faz por meio da mente holografica. Capta imagens do passado, presente e futuro, sem promptness e espaco.
VIBRAC~AO - princ'ipio de movimento e trasfer^encia, onde o ser humano, atrav'es de determinados estados de consci^encia, adquire habilidades ps'iquicas.
POLARIDADE - princ'ipio que demonstra que todo o universo 'e fold. A magia do trabalho com as leis da natureza tamb'em trabalha com essa dualidade na busca da alquimia perfeita.
RITMO - princ'ipio que demonstra como se movimenta o sistema fold do universo, que gira em c'irculo e espirais, marcando o movimento cicl'ico da grande roda da vida, atra'es das fases da lua e das estac~oes.
G^ENERO - princ'ipio que tem como comprovantes as forcas masculinas e femininas, cuja integrac~ao e criac~ao s~ao formas andr'ogenas de energia.
CAUSA E EFEITO - pr'incipio cuja lei evidencia que para toda ac~ao ha uma repercuss~ao c'osmica, que se manifesta por meio de alguma outra causa.Visite:

I would like to recommend two institutions in New York City that should be of considerable interest to readers of this mailing list who live in N.Y., Conn., or N. J.
1) WBAI FM
This "listener supported" FM station ( I forget the exact frequency -- some where around 96 ) has the most eclectic and wide ranging programming of any station I have ever heard. It's basic bent is "Progressive", which can mean ( depending on the particular show-- each host has very wide latitude on what to broadcast) anything from "Trotskyite" 6PM news
to Neo-pagan to an all day broeadcast of readings from Joyce's "Ulysses".
They specialize in providing time for the more contriversial
or less accepted beliefs in our society. Don't judge this station
based on just one listening, each show stands alone, the station does not have a consistent "sound", and many of the hosts are real ASS HOLES, while others are wonderful. I especially recommend the morning drive time programming on Monday, Thursday, Wednesday, and Friday ( in that order). Its transmitter is powerful, 50000 watts from the Empire State Building, so you don't have to be in the City to hear it.
2) The "New York Open" Center
This organization on Spring Street in Soho, uses its four story building (If you haven't been to New York, you don't realize that owning that much space is like saying they own the entire State of Montana), for classes, lectures, workshops and performances in a wide range of
new age areas. The quality of the environment and of presentations
are in my experience very high. (Many other such centers I have
done stuff at seem to be primarily places for singles to meet, not
that you couldn't do that here, its just their purpose seems different and slightly clearer).
I have recently moved to Chicago, and when I know the city better
I will post similar listings. Perhaps other correspondents would
like to post useful info about their areas of the country.

AT however, it is wise to have a few reference books handy.
More subtle, however, is Crowley's sense of humor. He often sets up logical traps for the unwise; he makes statements that are baldfaced lies for the purpose of making the reader think (or disposing of the reader who is unable to). For example, in his book "Magick" (also titled "Magick in Theory and Practice"), there is a chapter entitled "Of the Bloody
Sacrifice: and Matters Cognate". The following lines are interesting:
"For the highest spiritual working one must accordingly
choose a victim which contains the highest and purest
force. A male child of perfect innocence and high
intelligence is the most satisfactory and suitable
victim."
Yikes, that sounds scary. Then there is the footnote:
"It appears from the Magickal Records of Frater Perdurabo
[Crowley--ed.] that He made this particular sacrifice on
the average of about 150 times a year between 1912 e.v. and
1928 e.v."
Obviously something is skewed here. No way he sacrificed 150 humans a year; Gilles de Rais may have, but that was when nobility could
get away with anything. I am not going to ruin the joke by explaining it; it is rather more interesting to figure out on your own. Suffice it to say that neither quote is really a lie; just some games with words and their effects.
Crowley was a remarkably prolific writer. I will limit this list to five books, all quite available (by mail if not at your local store.)
1. "The Book of Lies" (Weiser, paperback)
A strange little book. Very strange. Contains over a hundred
one-page chapters, each with a commentary. The topics range
from Mastery:
GOLD BRICKS
Teach us Your secret, Master! yap my Yahoos.
Then for the hardness of their hearts, and
for the softness of their Heads, I taught
them Magick.
But...alas!
Teach us your real secret, Master! how to become
invisible, how to acquire love, and oh! beyond
all, how to make gold.
But how much gold will you give me for the
Secret of Infinite Riches?
Then said the foremost and most foolish: Master, it
is nothing; but here is an hundred thousand
pounds.
This did I deign to accept, and whispered in his
ear this secret:
A SUCKER IS BORN EVERY MINUTE.
to Yoga:
KING'S COLLEGE CHAPEL
For mind and body alike there is no purgative like
Pranayama, no purgative like Pranayama.
For mind, for body, for mind and body alike--
alike!--there is, there is, there is no purgative,
no purgative like Pranayama--Pranayama!--Pranayama!
yea, for mind and body alike there is no purgative,
no purgative, no purgative (for mind and body alike!)
no purgative, purgative, purgative like Pranayama, no
purgative for mind and body alike, like Pranayama,
like Pranayama, like Prana--Prana--Prana--Prana--
Pranayama!--Pranayama!
AMEN.
to one that ends:
The more necessary anything appears in my mind,
the more certain it is that I only assert a
limitation.
I slept with Faith, and found a corpse in my arms
on awakening; I drank and danced all night with Doubt,
and found her a virgin in the morning.
This is one of my favorite books.
2. "The Book of Thoth" (Weiser)
This was the last significant work Crowley published (he died
in 1947). An exposition of the Tarot, especially as appearing in
the deck he created with Lady Frieda Harris (known as the Thoth
Deck). Crowley continues the Golden Dawn system that links together
the Tarot and the Qabala (though he makes some minor changes
that some will find jarring). This book is one of the best
Tarot books I have ever read; for people with a background
in Tarot, this would be a good place to get acquainted with
Crowley.
3. "Magick without Tears" (-)
I'm not going to list a publisher for this. There are two editions
out, one edited by Israel Regardie, the other edited and
commented by Marcello Motta. The Motta edition is an interesting
work, in that more than 50% of the text is his own commentary,
lots of it attacks, smears, and innuendoes on various people
involved with the O.T.O. over the years. Motta believes himself to
be the head of the O.T.O., and he and his five followers have
involved Weiser and the O.T.O. under Grady McMurtry
(the organization of which Tim and I are members) in a very expensive
series of lawsuits. There will be more information on this when
the thing gets to court in late February. The Regardie edition is
clean, however.
At any rate, MWT is designed as a series of letters to a neophyte,
and is quite informational. Few traps than in any of his other works.
[Note from Tim: I got my copy of this from a second-hand bookstore (for five bucks -- obviously the guy had no idea how hard to get it was). It has recently come back into print from a publisher named Falcon Press, in a reasonably-priced paperback.]
4. "Collected Works of Aleister Crowley" (Yogi Publication Society, Des
Plaines, Ill.)
This is a three volume set of poetry, essentially all of
Crowley's poetical output up until 1905. Crowley is not well
known as a poet; his infamy as the Great Beast 666 tended to
overwhelm any critical reception his poetry might have
received. I like his stuff; it is complex and interesting
(and occasionally has some god-awful rhymes.) Read for literary
value; then study for magickal intent.
5. "ThELEMA" (title in Greek, alt. title "The Holy Books of Thelema")
(Weiser)
A collection of some of the important "Holy Books" Crowley wrote
or received. The most important work herein is "Liber AL", otherwise
known as "The Book of the Law". Some items are rituals; others
could be thought of as inspirational works. Also included is
an introduction by Caliph Hymenaeus Alpha (Grady McMurtry), and
some interesting translations of a certain Egyptian funerary
stele.
Originally, I had intended this to be ten books; I think these five suffice for a start.
Love is the law, love under will.
Joshua Gordon, M:.M:. (O.T.O.)
Maria asked for a Beltane based love spell and I clutch put no matter which simple together - hope this helps you!
I am basing it on fire, Beltane vivacity a fire show, and also while this works well with igniting the burst of passion! This can be cast-off in an impart acquaintance but is very ideas to new love as the Beltane energies lend themselves to new friends, this vivacity a resonance show too ;)
All you drive want is 3 red candles and 3 white candles. Cut into your budding clothed in the white candles and the phenomenon of your desire's clothed in the red ones. Put them in an curved shape with the white candles all to the moved out, the red to the immoderation.
God and Holy being colleague at this timeAn halo of love and the barely divine
Flimsy 1 white candle and 1 red, the ones highest to one side.
This spirit of enliven blesses us allWe depute of our hearts seeing that we get to know love's true stay in
Flimsy the flicker red and white candles.
Colleague by the fireJoined in our ardourJoined we satisfactory higherMay our hearts be as one.
Flimsy the final candles and next make a few moments for meditation and to print and create the view of love you aim for. After that incidental out the candles, study the clouds satisfactory and make your prayers skywards and thank the divine as you do this.

"RICK WARREN: WORK IS NOT GOD'S PUNISHMENT FOR MAN"
"RICK WARREN, PASTOR OF SADDLEBACK CHURCH IN LAKE FOREST, CALIF., KICKED OFF A SIX-WEEK SERMON SERIES ON THE TOPIC OF "DOING BUSINESS WITH GOD" OVER THE WEEKEND, AND EXPLAINED THAT, CONTRARY TO POPULAR BELIEF, ADAM AND EVE WORKED IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN AND PEOPLE WILL WORK IN HEAVEN AS WELL."
"SOME PEOPLE ACTUALLY THINK THAT WORK IS PUNISHMENT FROM GOD. IT IS NOT... BECAUSE THERE WAS WORK FOR ADAM AND EVE TO DO IN PARADISE," SAID WARREN."
"HE CONTINUED, "THE FALL, THE CAUSE OF SIN, ACTUALLY JUST MADE WORK MORE DIFFICULT... BUT WORK IN AND OF ITSELF IS A BLESSING, AND IT'S PART OF WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A HUMAN BEING. EVEN IN PARADISE, EVEN IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN, GOD HAD WORK FOR PEOPLE TO DO. YOU WEREN'T PUT ON THIS EARTH JUST TO DO NOTHING...GOD HAS A PLAN, A LIFE MISSION, A LIFE WORK FOR YOU TO DO."
"THE WORK THAT WILL BE DONE IN HEAVEN, HE SAYS, WILL NOT BE DEMANDING OR DEMEANING - THERE WILL BE NO MORE "BAD BOSSES" OR "UNSOLVABLE PROBLEMS" - BUT WORKING IS SOMETHING GOD "WIRED" INTO HUMAN BEINGS AND WILL CONTINUE INTO ETERNITY."
"ACCORDING TO STATISTICS PROVIDED BY WARREN, AN AVERAGE PERSON WILL SPEND APPROXIMATELY 40 PERCENT (OR 150,000 HOURS) THEIR LIFE WORKING, WHICH HIGHLIGHTS THE NEED FOR A SERMON SERIES ON THE TOPIC. THERE ARE SIX BASIC BIBLICAL REASONS TO WORK WHILE ON THE EARTH, HE SAYS, AND THE MOST IMPORTANT OF THESE IS WORKING TO BUILD THE KINGDOM OF GOD."
"IN TODAY'S GLOBALIZED ECONOMY, THE NEW MISSIONARIES ARE BUSINESSMEN AND BUSINESSWOMEN," SAID WARREN. MANY COUNTRIES IN TODAY'S WORLD ARE CLOSED TO CHRISTIAN PASTORS AND MISSIONARIES, HE EXPLAINED, BUT THEY WILL ALLOW BUSINESSMEN AND WOMEN IN."
"A WHILE AGO, WARREN SAID, HE MET WITH ERICH STAMMINGER, WHO AT THE TIME WAS THE PRESIDENT AND CEO OF ADIDAS. STAMMINGER HAD READ WARREN'S BEST-SELLING BOOK, "THE PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE", BECAME A CHRISTIAN AND ASKED WARREN IF HE SHOULD LEAVE HIS POST AS THE COMPANY'S HEAD IN ORDER TO BECOME A PASTOR."
"WARREN INSISTED THAT STAMMINGER SHOULD KEEP HIS POSITION AND UTILIZE THE INFLUENCE HE ALREADY HAD TO REACH OTHERS FOR CHRIST. WARREN TOLD HIM TO PRAY FOR THE NON-CHRISTIAN MEMBERS OF THE COMPANY'S EXECUTIVE BOARD WITH THE BOARD'S CHRISTIAN MEMBERS. HE ALSO TOLD HIM TO TAKE CARE OF HIS 25,000 EMPLOYEES, AND TO BEFRIEND THE CELEBRITIES HIS COMPANY ENDORSED. STAMMINGER STILL SERVES ON THE COMPANY'S BOARD TODAY."
"IN ADDITION TO WORKING TO BUILD THE KINGDOM OF GOD, CHRISTIANS SHOULD ALSO WORK SO THEY CAN GIVE TO CHARITY, THEY CAN BUILD A POWERFUL TESTIMONY THROUGH THEIR QUALITY WORK, GOD CAN DEVELOP THEIR CHARACTER, THEY CAN EXPRESS THEIR TALENTS AND THEY CAN PROVIDE FOR THEMSELVES AND THEIR FAMILIES."
"GOD DOESN'T WANT YOU BEING A LEECH. GOD DOESN'T WANT YOU BEING A PARASITE. GOD DOESN'T WANT YOU DEPENDING ON OTHER PEOPLE UNLESS YOU ARE UNABLE TO WORK," SAID WARREN. THE BIBLE SAYS ABLE-BODIED CHRISTIANS NEED TO WORK TO SUPPORT THEMSELVES AND THEIR FAMILIES, HE EXPLAINED."
"BUT EVEN THOSE WHO ARE WEALTHY ENOUGH TO STOP WORKING ALTOGETHER SHOULD CONTINUE THEIR WORK."
"WHAT IF I GET TO THE POINT WHERE ALL OF MY BASIC NEEDS ARE MET,... CAN I STOP WORKING? THE ANSWER IS NO, BECAUSE GOD DID NOT PUT YOU ON THIS EARTH TO DO NOTHING WITH YOUR LIFE, JUST TO LIVE FOR YOURSELF A LIFE OF PLEASURE. YOU SHOULD FIND SOME KIND OF WORK THAT EXPRESSES WHO YOU ARE AND YOU ENJOY DOING IT AND YOU KEEP MAKING A CONTRIBUTION. IF YOU'RE ALIVE YOU CAN MAKE SOME KIND OF CONTRIBUTION TO THIS WORLD," HE SAID."
"WARREN SAYS HE AND HIS WIFE, KAY, GIVE AWAY 91 PERCENT OF WHAT THEY EARN. THE TREMENDOUS SUCCESS OF "THE PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE" ALLOWED THE COUPLE TO FINANCIALLY RETIRE 10 YEARS AGO, AND SINCE THAT TIME WARREN'S WORK AS A PASTOR HAS BEEN STRICTLY ON A VOLUNTEER BASIS."
"I COULD HAVE GONE AND BOUGHT AN ISLAND, AND RETIRED, AND HAD PEOPLE SERVE ME ICED TEA WITH LITTLE UMBRELLAS IN IT FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE. BUT WHEN YOU WRITE A BOOK AND THE FIRST SENTENCE IS, 'IT'S NOT ABOUT YOU,' THEN YOU KIND OF FIGURE THE MONEY'S NOT FOR YOU," HE SAID."
"WARREN ENCOURAGED HIS CONGREGATION TO ATTEND THE UPCOMING OC BUSINESS SUMMIT, WHICH WILL BE HELD FRIDAY AT SADDLEBACK CHURCH. IN ADDITION TO WARREN, OTHER SPEAKERS AT THE EVENT WILL INCLUDE MARK BURNETT, PRODUCER OF "SURVIVOR" AND "CELEBRITY APPRENTICE;" STEVE CASE, FORMER CEO OF AMERICAN ONLINE; AND LYNDA RESNICK, BILLIONAIRE BUSINESSWOMAN AND ENTREPRENEUR."
