INVOCATIVE AND EVOCATIVE PROCESSES
After this brief excursion into
physiology, we deal with something different. If you could not follow all of the preceding material, don't worry! Things will
just fall effortlessly into place during your natural progress as you practice Rune Magic. As with certain branches of mathematics,
doing it makes it clearer than studying it.
Runes, as we have said before, act
from the objective but un-speakable levels of continuous creation. The effect of Runes can be felt within ourselves, and can
be projected outside ourselves. In other words, Runes have invocative as well as evocative characteristics,
The process of invocation is known
to most people with some background in metaphysics. When you invoke, you open yourself to a specific energy or entity, parts
of which you draw inside yourself by establishing a place of manifestation within yourself. How much you draw inside yourself
is determined by how much space you make.
If the process of invocation goes
out of control, then states of possession can ensue. This happens all too often when the person practicing invocations does
not prepare and protect properly.
Channeling without protection can
be dangerous and all too often attracts the wrong entity. This state of affairs is not helped by the naive way in which so
many metaphysically inclined people believe anything told them which is the result of channeling. A stupid being does not
become wise merely by dying, nor does a malicious being become benevolent. Logical thinking is needed more in metaphysical
matters than in everyday affairs. Runes are such that their impact via invocation can easily be modified and limited to what
is desirable.
Contrary to popular belief, the
process of evocation is harmless. The evocative energies becoming invocative can be the threat to the practitioner who did
not know how to protect himself.
In evocation, the energies or entities
evoked manifest outside the practitioner. This situation permits the triggering of immensely powerful energies. If these energies
become invocative, i.e. if they invade the "circle of protection" then the practitioner may become overcharged. This is a
potentially dangerous situation, and can lead to states of possession, because energies of a high order have a dimension of
personification. In extreme circumstances the physical death of the unprotected practitioner could occur.
To avoid such problems with evocations,
the practitioner has to have knowledge of a specific determinism and of the structure of the magical universe. To access the
evocative meanings of Runes or of any symbolism, you need to become familiar with the processes of evocation and invocation.
Our severe caution about the dangers
of these processes is to be understood in the same spirit as cautions against the dangers of driving a powerful car. Nobody
considers giving up driving and its benefits because of the very real dangers involved. Instead, they learn how to drive,
and when driving they drive with care.
The energy or entity, which has
been drawn by an evocative process, can increase its power almost indefinitely, since the problem of overcharging the body
of the practitioner does not arise. The only limit of the magician in this case is the limit of his or her power of imagination
and visualization. Whoever is the better mathematician will be the stronger magician. By mathematics, we mean a higher kind
of mathematics than the academic one: a mathematics that encompasses the higher levels of existence. The recognition of significant
patterns is still a basic feature, as it is in ordinary mathematics.
In any use of Runes, the two principles
of evocation and invocation are involved. There is no act, which does not involve both principles, to some extent. The situation
is analogous to the commercial act of buying and selling. They always go together, although it is possible to study each function
separately.
The strength of the Rune magician
is the ability to intensify the evocative dimension of Rune experience as well as the capabilities of the body at all levels,
physical, astral, and so forth. This increases automatically the intensity of the invocation involved and the result is a
speeding up of the evolutionary process, which enables the magician to draw nearer to the goal of passing through tens of
thousands of years of evolution in a few lifetimes.
When you begin to practice Runes,
you will do so in the invocative mode. You tap into the Rune realms and you draw Rune energies into yourself, into your inner
Rune Realm. As soon as you establish your outer Rune Realm then you bring in the evocative dimension, However even though
you will learn how to project Runes for healing and to draw specific circumstances, the beginning practice will be in the
main invocative.
Once you have experienced Runes
as a symbolism, then you are ready for the more evocative dimensions of Runes. In fact most of your work after that point
will emphasize the evocative dimensions.
You draw Runes from the realms of
creation. Then you project them through your outer Rune Realm into your universe. The stronger the evocative dimension, the
greater the success of your Magical operation will be.
Rune Magic is hyper physics in its
strongest form. It is a method that operates from planes invisible to the physical eye: and it acts upon the material, tangible
universe. Therefore, Runes allow you to do things that you cannot do with "mind power," "mind control," and similar techniques.
With Runes, you can have impact
upon your surroundings, and you can cause changes in your inner world. Since these actions are generated in the deep levels
of creation, at those levels where thoughts begin to take shape, Runes can act faster and more strongly than any other method
known in metaphysics.
Rune Magic is operated from a hyperspace
beyond ordinary space-time. It is beyond the created forms and beyond the well defined energies of the cosmos. Consequently,
the applications of Rune Magic are unlimited. No matter how far advanced you are in Rune Magic, no matter how many uses for
it you know, there will always be new applications and discoveries for you to make.
At the same time, you will experience
continuous progress in your understanding of the workings of the universe. The power of imagination is the limit of the power
of the magician. With Rune practice, the power of the imagination automatically increases. After even a brief period of practice
with Runes you will experience:
General self-improvement
Awareness of your Magical Powers
Increase in your Magical Powers
Healing capabilities
Deep insights into the workings of the universe
Spiritual insights and experiences
Psychic capabilities
Awakening of Chakras
Emotional Equilibrium
Harmony within your environment
Being in control
Capability of having impact upon your Destiny
... And much more
