Money does not buy happiness or love.

I've had several people recommend that I look into the Golden Dawn and I never really have. I'm not completely in the dark about them though. Christopher Penczak refers to them quite often in his book, "The Temple of High Witchcraft", which I have read and studied in some detail, and continue to do so.

I've also read a lot of information concerning the Qabalah which is a lot of what the Golden Dawn draws on, among other sources. In fact, I've become quite extensively involved with the Qabalah to the point of designing my own Qabalah. That may sound strange to some people, but this is what all the magi do, including the Golden Dawn.

Of course my design isn't all that different and is indeed based upon the same foundational principles of all versions of it. It's basically just a reality map and for this reason should be modified by the "traveler" who is using it. My version is 'reflected' in the waters of Briah and Yesod. It's a personal map which I don't expect other people to identify with, but I'll post it here just to give an idea of what it looks like:



Ideally I would like to make an artistic painting of it someday that won't look anything at all like this schematic graphic.

As you can see, I've also including the Tarot in this map, and those connections also are unique to me and of my own personal design.

From this reality map I moved forward and created something I call, The Labyrinth Way which is a combination of Tarot, the Zodiac, and the Planet Gods/Goddesses all arranged along a Laybrinth Path that leads to an Inner Circle which contains other elements of the Qabalah and Faery Teachings.

I really should publish all of this work to share with other people. It's quite a positive and constructive system that would be highly beneficial for many people whether they believe in magick or are simple looking for a positive and constructive system of introspection.

My life rocks woman. I have a woman that loves me, i just closed on a mortgage on a beautiful house, a job that keeps my accounts filled to the brim and i have a family that loves me... oh, and an awesome dog.

So why are you on a dating site running an ad that says that you're seeking a smart flirtatious girl?

Is one loving women not enough to keep you satisfied?

Just curious.

You should publish that. I,m interested.

Made this page before i was with my girl, now i come on for the discussions... i suppose i should change that shouldn't i? I'm never that good at continuously managing my account.

Well that's great! Good wishes to both of you!

I actually did start writing this up. And I really should go back to it. The thing that got me side-tracked was that I moved on from using the Qabalah to using a newer model that's based on a Labyrinth Garden. Although, I still use many aspects of the Qabalah as well.

I only wish that I would have known about this stuff when I was a kid. That's when it would have truly made a significant differnece in my life.

That model looks like a diagram from the Golden Dawn to Me, only more detail. How do You know how to connect it? is that Quabbalistic?

I am a little bit familiar with the structure but I don't know much about it yet. I'm taking my time learning about that stuff. I understand that this structure is the two dimensional sacred geometry design for the tree of life. This one that Abra has posted has two of them connected. I'm not sure what that means, but I suppose you can connect an infinite number of them.

I'ts a two dimentional diagram of how We connect to Life's cycle?

Its a two dimensional diagram of a three dimensional structure. Sacred geometry.

Sacred geometry, I believe, has something to do with the many ways in which a conscious observer interprets reality in three dimensions and manifests spacetime.

Does that interpretation vary to different observers, in seperate regions of space/time? I see a formula involving relativity connected to Being.

Yes, everything is relative and every observer has a unique point of view. But the mechanism for all in a given reality is the same, or works the same. In other words, we all have the same tools, but we each have a unique perspective and creative imagination.

I wonder, what are the consequences of going so deep into understanding? But on the other hand, it's all so very basic.
