& The Ritual of Art

Magic is using ritual to create changes in reality-self-consciousness-mind…..

The ritual is the crafted permission slip, the occult technology, the enactment and demonstration of the reality you want to experience

Ritual is symbolic action

Everything we do in our lives is ritualistic, is symbolic action We are all magicians doing magic all the time. Just most people don’t do it deliberately and consciously, and with the full theatricality and awareness that they are a magician practicing magic.

Consciously living one’s life as a ritualistic enactment As theurgy with the idea of achieving henosis

“When ritual and the relationships of meaning which underlie it are studied and used deliberately, though, a whole range of possibilities opens up. These possibilities include most of the methods of magic. While the world's traditions of magic contain an enormous array of different tools, techniques and approaches, symbolism and symbolic action—that is, ritual—form the most important elements of the magician's toolkit. The mastery of ritual thus offers what is probably the single most important way to begin to make use of the immense hidden potentials of human consciousness, potentials that go far beyond the limits most people nowadays place on what it means to be human.” - Circles of Power, John Michael Greer
