The
Mystical Pentagram is a technique which will enhance psychic self-
awareness. Practiced on a daily basis it will produce surprising
individual results. One of the features of this technique is that it
encourages personal development by allowing each entity to discover a
personal mantra which corresponds to the five elements.
To
begin,you will need a table of correspondences such as
"777" by Aleister Crowley. Look up the names of the gods
and goddesses which correspond to the air element. Pick a name which
when chanted 'feels' right for you. For example, Nu is the Egyptian
lord of the firmament and corresponds to air. If I were inclined
towards Egyptian
deities, I would chant the name Nu for several minutes to see what
effect transpired. If I felt relaxed, comfortable, and generally
positive I would inwardly know that this name would be in tune with
my inner self. Proceed to find correspondences for fire, water, and
earth in the same manner and finally for spirit since it is the
aggregate of the four common elements.
Once
you have found a personal mantra or a chant consisting of five
names, vowel sounds, etc. You are ready to proceed with the practical
application of the Mystical Pentagram.
Assume
your favorite meditation position, relax and begin to breathe in a
rhythmic pattern; i.e.;
inhale count one, two, three, four, exhale count one, two, three,
four and so on. Continue to breathe in such a manner for about five
minutes so that a definite rhythm is firmly established.
Visualize
the five psychic centers. Memorize their positions so that you
become familiar with the positions.
Next
visualize a brilliant white light forming a circle above your head
in the spirit center. Mentally draw a white light pentagram within
the circle of light. This should be an invoking pentagram.
If
your mind should
begin
to wander, gently bring it back and vocally vibrate the mantra you
have chosen for the spirit center. Let your mind dwell on this center
and intone your mantra several times for at least five minutes.
Next
see
a
shaft of white
light
radiate down through your skull stopping at your throat near the
adam's apple. See a circle of white light begin to form and pulsate.
Mentally draw an invoking pentagram within the circle of light and
vocally vibrate your chosen mantra for the air center. Continue to
stimulate this center for at least five minutes.
Now
see a
shaft
of white light radiate down
through
your torso stopping at your fire center. This is located just above
the navel. See a brilliant white light begin to pulsate at this
center and draw an
invoking pentagram within the circle of light. As your mind begins
to wander gently guide it back to the image of the glowing white
pentagram. Here vibrate your chosen fire mantra. Once this center is
stimulated the sensation is unmistakable. A mild tingling or
vibration of the solar-plexus area is physically experienced.
Continue to dwell on this center for at least five minutes.
See
the shaft of white
light
push down to the water center which is located in the groin area.
Here, too, a brilliant circle of white light should be visualized.
Again draw an invoking pentagram within the circle of light. Intone
the mantra for the water center and repeat the sound several times
for the next five minutes.
Having
arrived thus
far,
see the shaft of white light radiate down through your legs stopping
at the bottom of your feet which is the earth center. Form a
brilliant, white, pulsating circle of light and draw an invoking
pentagram within the circle. Intone your earth mantra and vocally
vibrate the sound several times during the next five minutes.
When
all of
the
energy centers have
been
stimulated, direct
the light
energy from the spirit center to the earth center. As you exhale see
the light travel from the top of your head down through your body to
the bottom of your feet. As you inhale see the energy travel from
your feet up through your body up to the top of your head, the spirit
center. These circulations should be persisted for at least seven
complete circuits. See the energy cleanse and vitalize every part of
your being and expand your awareness to cosmic consciousness. As you
continue to repeat this technique each day you will begin to see and feel
a change in your psychic awareness and a marked improvement in your
health.
Don't
become discouraged if you don't achieve results immediately. This
technique produces very positive effects but they are cumulative in
nature. Be gentle with your inner self; however, you must also be
persistent and keep the communication open. It is also a good idea to
perform this exercise at the same time each day in order to allow
your body cycles incorporate the energy flow in a natural order.
