Clash of the Show-offs

It has come to me there's somewhat of a verbal war going on in some occult regions of social media. These developments are of no surprise to me considering the fact I've been observing how things were playing out in the background, even as a simple bystander. At any rate, this could be seen as a follow-up to this article in which I talked about wannabes in the occult and their hypocrisy. I wasn't going to do a follow-up initially, but people prove to be as obvious as they are hypocrite so here we go. 

The dictionary defines hypocrisy as "the practice of claiming to have higher standards or more noble beliefs than is the case" and this can be extended into the realm of occult knowledge too. It seems that, because of the obvious reason almost no one is noticing, which is money, people start saying and claiming all sorts of stupid stuff. This ultimately applies to their occult services, because money. So people who have just began walking their occult path recently have found themselves in the midst of a Beavis and Butt-Head episode where people thrash one another with more or less help from others over something none of them knows anything about, or at least they know too little to start making pompous comments, let alone try to come out on top as being superior to the other. And this is where the hypocrisy lies. 

You see, in modern astrology there's a fictional point in the chart called Black Moon Lilith (BML). People usually call it the Black Moon or Lilith for short. It is not something classical or medieval astrologers would've studied because it was only "invented" some 103 years ago. But this is the mistake of people that stick to old dogmas make very often, that is to deny newer discoveries or at least to study any possible uses of such discoveries and see if they get to at least one conclusion that has a practical application. This happens in the occult as well and in many other areas of life, showing many people are still stuck in Saturn's limitations despite their alleged expertise in areas where they can understand Saturn much better and work with it.   

So anyway, we talked about BML in Asteria. We've done it for a few reasons and anyone is free to take that information and use it or otherwise. They can overlook it as much as they can laugh at it. I really don't care. But the location of this point in a natal chart can reveal a great deal about a native even if the native will deny that information although they know in the back of their head at least some of it is true. Using a simplistic explanation, it is the point that signals everything someone has sweeped under the rug because of shame or guilt or fear, all of that or more. I've talked about such things in the article on the eighth house. And here is where the hypocrisy manifests because the ego shuns that which had been sweeped under the rug and is trying to keep it concealed, while at the same time is trying to make itself come across as being way better than that. Fyi, ego, just because you're forcing yourself not to acknowledge certain things it doesn't mean they don't exist.

A while ago I told someone BML is like a pressure valve for the whole chart. They disagreed and instead went on to lecture me about what it really is. I found that funny because I had been studying the subject for more than 8 years and had been working with the force related to it for more than 4, whereas they'd been only doing that for a few months, but before I allowed my ego to kick in I realized that was a reflection of how my BML was prone to act in general. I'm sure the person in question will have many more lessons to learn if they continue down that path and I'm sure whatever they had told me at the time was a small glass of an ocean-sized subject of understanding. 

But returning to my idea with BML as a pressure valve for the whole chart, I found that in every case study I've come across over time the natal BML was overcharging the more the native's tensed aspects and placements were stimulated by transits. At some point the pressure becomes too much and that energy escapes, often through the person's BML. Therefore, the natal sign(s) and house(s) one's BML is located become a necessary study, alongside whatever aspects BML is involved in. 

So back to the initial idea, one's need for money makes them become a hypocrite and involves them into all sorts of scandals that draw attention with others of their kind. It's something like a mob turf war. Each of the sides has their lackeys who are willing to go at it and slam the enemy and there's tons of propaganda flying around. No wonder noobs end up being fucked up after having witnessed this kind of thing for a while on social media. And other kinds of forums are not that different either. 

So, boys and girls of the exclusively hypocrite club, it makes little difference whether you're barking at each other loudly and your dick riders got your back. You guys have no idea wtf you're talking about in essence. You're simply doing so to come out on top of each other so that having become a winner in a war not even 0.1% of the world's population is interested in, you'd be considered somewhat of a grand puba in a certain field of expertise in which none of you qualify even as a padawan. You'd be doing yourselves a great amount of good if you were to stfu about subjects you merely picked up on the fly and went along with, not knowing what the actual deal is with them, than parading around trying to come across as experts in the field. 

I'm sure you won't be doing this, but you'd be doing yourself an even greater favor if you'd be studying your fuckin BML by sign(s), house(s), and any aspects it's involved and being true to yourself whenever you come across interpretations that make you squeamish. You could start working with that force, although I'm sure you're to great of a sorcerer type to do that, although I suspect you have no idea how. Or better yet, work with it and deal with the rest of your tensions. Here, use this! I re-edited it just for the likes of you, although I'm sure you're much too "up there" to use something that's not been written by someone who has at least 10 fake reviews on their shit.

Moving on, the hypocrisy in question has brought to the forefront an occult related subject that is being used by both parties as a means of acquiring money - talismans. The Key of Solomon has been quoted and interpreted and personal opinions have been stated and repeated over and over as propaganda and as a means of brainwashing people who, like me, know very little over certain subjects - I know very little about everything, in fact! Except for a few things, where I know a bit more than I usually do about everything else, but that bit more is more than some others know too so I won't get fooled by them. 

Cutting down to the chase because I'm getting bored going around the bush so much: 

1. A talisman is a physical anchor for a spirit. It is a material "house" for the spirit. And no, there's no baby/mini/whatever spirit! It's an instance of the spirit, although they don't teach you that in (any) tradition. This implies it depends on the overall conditions at the time it is contacted, including astrological.

2. If you make talismans, especially talismans that house celestial spirits, it is best if you do it at the most auspicious astrological time you can use! Doing a Venus talisman for love with Venus in Aries separating from a square with Pluto and applying to one with Saturn is a major no-no for that. Also, the Moon in Scorpio is not cool even if it's semi-sextile Mercury in Sagittarius, especially since Mercury is very weak there. The same goes for doing beneficial Mercury work for clients when Mercury is peregrine and combust.

3. It is best to MAKE it and CONSECRATE (I was told "charging" was not the right word for it... Fuck off!!!) it at the exact auspicious time, all in one go. No excuses! (If you're a real magician or better still, if you're really knowledgeable in practical magical stuff, you'd know how you can work around that)

These things apply for any talisman, regardless of its grimoire origins or its alleged tradition. If you fail to do that, then keep it for yourself because you wouldn't want people to start saying they got very bad results and then have to start spreading counter rumors and fake reviews. Or, if you know you don't know shit about shit, then make a damn phony account and contact someone who knows their shit and ask them to sell you a premium election time for your location, although it's very likely you'd have to wait for a longer amount of time... OOPS! Bye-bye money!

To close it off, I don't care who dafuq you are or what alleged tradition you're considering yourself to be an expert in. If you come around saying you don't think the energies of the heavens affect people on Earth, only to come around later on to pose as an authority over a subject then you're as fucked up as someone who's saying you don't need XYZ for doing magick as an answer to people who are asking specifically about that.  

So yea, I don't care who the hell you are or who you think you are and how some people see you. If you're fucked up and keep being fucked up with an attitude then, paraphrasing R. A. the Rugged Man from his song Black & White:

"Yo, I fuck up anybody, shit don't matter, white, black, I'll fuck you up, you know?"

For any retard who might be saying this is a racist thing - no! It's me paraphrasing a song about alleged racist things and adapted for the purpose of this article, which is occult related topics. (This would be yet another topic on hypocrisy in itself, but I don't have the time to go into it)

Again, I might not be the most knowledgeable mofucka out there, but I don't go around posing as some kind of wonder wizard or scholar or whatever. And when it comes to something the likes of talismans, be they KoS or otherwise, I really don't care what some fuckin alleged tradition says. There was a man by the name of Robert Zoller. I had no idea about him, obviously why, before Scott mentioned his name to me. He died a couple of years back. He revived medieval astrology. He had many students. At least one of his former students is teaching this shit. If you're too stupid to learn it, although I cannot see how that can be the case because I (me!!!) got the hang of it to some extent, whereas someone as superior as you guys could easily understand it, then by all means, buy election times from that person and use them to CONSECRATE your products. But your scholasticated and ever so erudite nature should do you a great deal and allow you to easily grasp everything within that sphere of knowledge, right? Or are you too proud to learn from someone way more qualified than yourselves?

Quality over quantity, people! Otherwise, Vice of Tiphareth, although only one of you knows wtf that's all about. But mind you, you're not going to grow to beat poor EA in notoriety. At least he knew how to draw the winning ticket even if he was too dumb to use it to his advantage later on. And from the point of view of achieving worldwide notoriety, hat's off to the left hand fapper! Whereas you guys will always be stuck fighting in the mud in an ever so non sexy way. Because figure it out.

Oh and by the way! Those people who are standing up to you saying they're your friends, or maybe you yourselves are considering them as such... at least a couple of them... it's highly likely they're going to stab you in the back first chance they get, especially if they find someone who's wearing a shinier armor than you. Or after they get fed up with being chastised and ridiculed in private. Or if you stop providing free help and support. Or maybe they're washed up has-beens who are lucky to be kept alive in the occult world by being in your bandwagon. Except maybe one guy. He's the epitome of hypocrisy and likely the descendant of someone Aristotle must've studied back when he said "a friend to everyone is a friend to no one" - hopefully he recognized himself in Asteria because I wrote that on purpose ;)  But anyway, everything is ephemeral, including your apparent fame ;)

Hate on, dum-dums!

The Great Gazoo     

PS: people like you are the reason the occult is stagnating.

PS 2: and knock it off with the scholastic and academic stuff. It's not even funny. So far I've come across no one in the occult who's got an actual diploma in occult topics - from an actual college or university. Maybe I'm wrong although I've been told by people who've been in this field for way longer than I have and who know way more people in this field than I do. 

I once heard of someone long ago who was bragging he had a thug diploma. I think he was referring to his police records and the paper he received when he was released from jail after serving time for doing thug stuff. You're not aware of this, but over here we call jail college so that guy's bragging was understandable. 

Otherwise you can get all sorts of certificates for having done various occult classes, but that don't make you a PhD in the field either. So calling yourself whatever is like some Impotentor saying he's buddy-buddy with secret chiefs or something.
