Nova Elite: Kether to Malkuth

We can observe the increasingly dense phases, of water for example. Starting from the diaphanous and seemingly immaterial gaseous phase of water vapor. Often invisible, transparent, or translucent. Vapor coalesces and with increased density becomes liquid. At room temperature on planet Earth, water is in its liquid form. With further decrease in thermal energy, water becomes yet more dense and hardens into ice.

Standing on a mountain top in the morning sunlight as clouds of vapor swirl around you and brush your skin can be a magical experience.

In contrast, having ice bricks and cubes thrown at you can be very painful.

And what about mentation? What about thought? Is it possible to carry the metaphor to this realm, and to think of density of Intention? or of informational density?

This seems both accurate and inaccurate/misleading.

Naissance

The birth of empowerment
The birth of intentionality
The birth of creativity

Fake confidence is based on convincing yourself that you know answers that you donā€™t actually have.

Genuine confidence is being brave enough to proceed even though you know that you donā€™t have the answers.

Both are needed depending on the situation

Some things only matter if they donā€™t matter; chief among these: Pleasure.

I donā€™t discern any need for the former; for convincing oneself that one has answers that one doesnā€™t have.

It might be because I interpret those two differently than you meant it.

But when I hear Fake Confidence, I have the main figure of ā€œCatch me if you canā€ in mind:

One of the greatest challenges in this life is to develop some means of identifying your own blind spots and perceptual limitations.

This is also one of the greatest sources of hope and resources.

We are always sitting on top of a metaphorical mountain of gold and unaware of it.

After reflecting on a post that I read by @JayFlex, I decided to make a change that Iā€™ve been considering.

Iā€™ve decided to make a slight switch to my stack. I will allow PATHS, my Ecstasy of Gold stage four Custom, to rest for a while.

I ran PATHS in Terminus Qv1 for about 11 months. I then built a Qv2 version of PATHS and Iā€™ve been running that since May for about 3.5 months.

I do not yet have a real business, though I have some fledgling, seedling activities going. Instead, my productive activity is still largely focused on my paid job.

For now, in the position in my stack that is usually occupied by PATHS, I will play Mogul and then Ascended Mogul.

So my stack is:

NAISSANCE Custom
Dragon Reborn
Mogul/Ascended Mogul

This made me rethink aswell in the other direction.

I do have a business so I would be better off with EoG instead of AM.

Interesting.

Well not ā€œbetterā€ but maybe more cleanly focused.

Itā€™s something you have to decide individually by reflecting on the descriptions, on where you are, and on where you want to go.

I think Iā€™m glad that I worked through the stages of Ecstasy of Gold, and now it feels right to move to Mogul/Ascended Mogul. Then it will be right to return to Ecstasy of Gold again.

And, somehow, Dragon Reborn also seems to play a role in all of this. That is one interesting program.

As to play schedule:

Iā€™m still sticking to the ā€˜3 day per week. 1 loop of each programā€™ schedule.

Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays are my play days.

This morning after meditation an insight came to me.

Contrary to how we usually discuss it, egocentrism is not selfishness.

The reason is that the ego is not the self.

The ego is an avatar that we create for navigating the world. That avatar does not include most of the Self.

Egocentrism and narcissism do not merely ignore other people; they also ignore you.

Today was my first day not listening to my wealth custom PATHS of Wealth. Instead, I played a loop of Mogul.

It was interesting to find how much my mind still desired to play PATHS. I tend to get an energized, optimistic, stimulated feeling while playing it. The two primary cores are Ecstasy of Gold Complete and Stark. My mind enjoys it.

During and after playing Mogul, I spent time thinking about my plans and practical actions regarding wealth projects. My plate is full right now with work projects. Weā€™ll see how things develop and what makes sense to me.

But I did notice an immediate effect.

One of our greatest magickal superpowers, that most of us donā€™t even realize is a magick power, is the ability to Normalizeā€¦

Faced with mind-blowing mysteries and cosmic miracles, we have the amazing and bizarre capacity to place an atmosphere of normalcy on all of it, and to approach everyday life without being overwhelmed; even feeling bored.

The briefest objective regard of everything (or anything) here reveals that miraculousness and mysteriousness are everywhere and fundamental. It is normalcy that is truly odd.

RECON just feels like life.

Iā€™m in the midst of a subtle phase of it right now.

It doesnā€™t feel like RECONCILIATION.

Itā€™s an enhanced awareness of and sensitivity to things in the environment that are legitimately irritating. But the subtle, invisible part has to do with my own internal capacity to tolerate or to maintain a higher sense of wellbeing.

Iā€™m in the midst of a 5-day training that goes from 7 am to 11 am, Wed to Sun. Iā€™ve been getting up to meditate at 5:45 so that I can do it before the training. Thankfully the trainingā€™s on Zoom.

I think the lower sleep makes it easier to see the systemic challenges that are going on in my mind.
