Some Appearences of Qliphothic Entites
Great explanation! Very similar experiences!
This makes a lot of sense to me. Thank you.
Occult practitioner here absolutely loving this take. I appreciate the nuance of this so much. As someone who is more along the middle path something I can find frustrating by people who swear only by one approach or the other is this insistence on how only their way is the most true. When what I feel they have found the truth they needed for the whole picture. Many people who embrace the left hand had too restrictive of an earlier life, and while many on the right hand were seeking an order their earlier life lacked, I feel they are both halves of the beautiful whole of Becoming. We were never meant to be one or the other. People will obviosuly have their preferred approaches given their life experience, but the whole has always danced between both. It is very refreshing to see that perspective covered here.
@Rillivid Thanks for your feedback! I've found that to be the case the majority of the time as well. Plus, titles and labels in general can become so restricting if we're not careful. What got you interested in all of this in the first place, if you don't mind me asking?
I have a question for you please. What is the best Golden Dawn book to purchase that teaches all the lessor and greater pentagon and hexagram rituals in-depth. Without errors in the directions? And which Crowley book is the most detailed on that also? Thank you!
@angelorosini4326 Hey, thanks for the questions! I don't exactly consider myself to be a Golden Dawn practitioner expert in any way. So I'm not sure I'm the one to answer that question. The Black and Green "Bricks" seem to give enough from what I can tell. But I can't guarantee ANY books without a single blind or editorial error. That's a tough one... As far as Crowley goes, perhaps look into Liber ABA? Or even Gems from The Equinox?
@qliphoth_quest thank you ya seems like blinds and or mistakes all over haha. It's best to get 3 or 4 good sources and harmonize it I guess. I appreciate it!
To be pulled fully to any one side be it Left or Right will only lead to stagnation and loss of self since you don't truly take the advantage of either. The Left empowers the god within ourselves whereas the Right empowers the god exterior to ourselves and both are necessary for continuous evolution. Several traditions talk about the middle leading upward, if you focus on yourself and how you interact and relate to yourself, your family, your town/state/country, your ancestry and history you're able to compare yourself on multiple different levels that still allow you individuality while seeing what has essentially grounded everything exterior to us. Going to any extreme ultimately leads to "you" being consumed by something bigger. To the Left is the Void whereas the Right is Illumination, "you" become consumed in either or if you stray into either extreme. Awesome video as always my guy, take care 🤘🤘🤘
@HUNarutofan19 Well said! Thanks for your continued interest and engagement. It means a lot. I'm always open to suggestions if there's anything you want me to cover specifically, please let me know!

I am hooked on this just 14 minutes in. Its going on the shopping list
@badcooper235 It's a pretty brief read! And it's a relatively open template. You don't often find the two of those with a relatively amount of quality in my experience!
I admire your variety. Nobody else can speak to both Book of Tokens and talk about the Nightside on UA-cam. This has been on my list for a minute.
@@badcooper235 Thanks so much. Your continued support means a lot.

@@HUNarutofan19 Thank you so much for your time and interest. I'm doing what I can to help! Haha
♄🌑 interesting read🧞♂️🜚
@@CurrencyRiddler Glad you liked it!
This might be off the subject for this video but what are your thoughts on William Gray? Before my LHP switch I was really big on him before I went the G:.D:. Way. His books " The Talking Tree, Qabalistic Concepts, and Ladder of Lights were very important to me. Especially Ladder of Lights. I loved his breakdown of the Tree in the 4 worlds. That book was genius. Anyhow this one is new to me I will have to check it out
@badcooper235 I'm not sure I've ever heard of them, actually! It's hard to say, though. So many of the names start to blend together after a while. Haha, The Talking Tree and Ladder of Lights I'll add to the list, thank you!
Nice info. Tower has been a patron card of mine this lifetime
Thanks for taking the time to watch! It's certainly a powerful theme to have expressing itself in your life. Best wishes to you on your path!
@@qliphoth_quest I've gotten really good at purging/releasing
Have you looked at the magic in Franz Bardons Iniation into Hermetics. Like on preventing a room with magical energy or creating spirits to do magical work on your behalf etc. He gets into some fascinating subjects actually teaching them. What is your thoughts on him? I know his work has some blinds in it which people mistaken for errors etc. Speak frankly I would like to hear your opinion.
@@angelorosini4326 I think his works make an excellent template. Whether or not the blinds are intentional is another subject. Haha
@qliphoth_quest funny I commented before listening to this video. It sounds like this author is heavily influenced by Bardon. Thanks for sharing this is the good stuff I'm interested in!
@angelorosini4326 Thanks for appreciating it! This is an undermentioned work and an excellent one at that. The section on elementals alone is pure gold, in my opinion. I appreciate your time and attention, thank you very much.
@qliphoth_quest Have you read the very important works of Jake Stratton Kent? Do you practice any grimoire yourself? Can you read French?
@@angelorosini4326 I've never read anything of his that I can remember, but he's been highly suggested. I'm planning on reading "The Sworn and Secret Grimoire" in the next month, though. As far as a certain grimoire goes, I've never read one that totally resonated with me so I always use them as a template, which I think is perhaps the best practice for some. Nowadays I just use my "own" material - which is a mixture of traditions and my own preferences - filtered through elemental formula. I haven't learned French, no. Why do you ask?
It's funny how we end up in the deep end sometimes without even realizing it. Cheers to people like you who take the time to pull beginners like us back to shore. Blessings to you and your channel. I hope you choose to keep doing this for a while because you really are one of a kind.
@chiruswhitmon Blessings to people like you who take the time to interact and leave feedback! It helps on a level that I can't express. And not just for channel growth - for other people like yourself to have a chance to see it as well! Blessings to you on your path, and as always, let me know if you have any questions or suggestions along the way. And thank you for the kind words!

Hey everyone! Thanks for watching: 1:09 The Structure of The Tree of Life 1:44 References and Source Materials 4:10 Alternate Spellings of the Practice 8:05 Breaking the Tree into Sections - Parts of the Being 11:25 The Four Worlds - Atziluth, Briah, Yetzirah, & Assiah 14:02 Breaking the Being Even Further - Sub-Soul Sections 20:02 The Individual Sephiroth and their English "Meanings" 24:24 The Idea of "Paths" between the "Spheres" and an Example 29:36 The Concept of Pathworking and Some of Its Uses in Qabalah 39:18 An Example of Correspondences for the Path of Tav on The Tree 41:41 The Watcher (or Lurker) at The Threshold and Some of Its Meaning
Can you please also touch on the different kinds of magic that can be done using the spears broadly.
Part of the power from this type of practice comes from forging those parts of the philosophy yourself! I would think that an understanding of the forces, locations, and correspondences associated with the spheres would be enough for one to decipher the types of magicks one could utilize them for. That being said, I would be happy to make a video for this concept. Perhaps you can utilize the tips above until that video is released. Thanks for your question!
@@qliphoth_quest thank you!
50:08 This is a SERIOUSLY underrated and underrepresented concept. Untying unconscious knots I think is how you basically explained it, is a really good way to think about it. And like you said it's a very practical thing too! Do you think it's beneficial to keep an open diagram to fill in correspondences? Like on The Tree? God names, Plentary Forces, etc?
@jesswills90 Thank you for your time and feedback! It means a lot. Yes, I think that's a great idea. I just do it in my head, now, though because I kept running out of space on the paper! Haha
@qliphoth_quest Oh that makes sense. Thank you!
Can we do a show without the headband free yourself you can do it brother!
My hair is almost long enough to tie up, so yes. Soon. Haha EDIT: Also, I just noticed the irony of this request. Headbands have historically represented liberty and freedom. And you're asking me to liberate myself from a symbol of liberty. Haha, gotta love the paradoxical nature of things sometimes.
@@qliphoth_questI like your headband

I don't think you showed enough disdain for your audience but it was a great effort.
@@numinous2506 Sorry to hear that you felt that way. What in particular made you think that? In my experience, most people are going to have a much harder time with this than they expect. I was trying to be up front and real about how much this can take from some people. It wasn't my intention to be disdainful in any way.
I mean, he's right though. Where do you live? Most people do not have the discipline for this kind of thing.
@@chiruswhitmon That's all I'm trying to say. Haha
Saw this comment before even watching the video and was pretty surprised to see it 😅 My experience of this channel has been very balanced and practical advice. I went ahead and watched the video for context and here's what I "know". This guy actually engages with his viewers and considers what they're struggling with and what people in this area of study typically struggle with, so I'm not sure who you think you're sticking up for? I myself have struggled with focus and motivation. During that time, I was definitely not ready for this second or third layer stuff and it appears to me that all he's attempting to do warn and prepare people for that if they aren't ready. This craft can be very discouraging and problematic when you enter it from the "wrong" angles and someone actually warning you about that (so you can eliminate as much trial and error as possible) is a sign they respect you, not a sign of disdain. Hope you stick around and that this helped clarify some things 🙏🏻
@eclectic_discovery This is an extremely helpful and appreciated comment. Thank you very much. I'm grateful to have the support of all of you, and I hope you all know that I'm here to do what I can to support you as well. It's only ever been my intention to do exactly what you've mentioned - show some of the ways, but point out some potential hazards along the routes. I appreciate you taking the time to let me (and others) know how you feel about your experience with the channel so far. Feedback is priceless and will always be taken seriously here. Best wishes to you on your path, and let me know if you have any questions or suggestions! Thank you.

@juliabarzyk1720 Awesome coincidence! Thank you for the kind words. How long have you been interested in Tarot, if you don't mind me asking? Also, let me know if there's anything else you'd like me to cover along the way!
@@qliphoth_quest somewhere between 1-2 years. Really nice channel. 👍
I've never practiced any kind of ceremonial magick. Even so, I found this very interesting, just observing / learning about something new. Seems like solid advice on knowing symbolism and personal symbolism and approaching a magickal path (most especially a doorway into the "night" side) with care and gravitas. Also gradually. The slowness, I would think, allows for a deeper experience and would be important when exploring the complexity of shadow. I work with light and dark deity (Boann & the Calleach.) Not exactly the same but I relate to the principles you mention as best practices. The "cool parent" metaphor made me smile.
@lauramayfair7887 In that case, I very much appreciate your time and feedback! Absolutely, knowledge of symbolism can mean a world of difference when we're attempting to communicate with something like the unconscious "mind." Gradually does seem to be the appropriate way. That's the major reason I like using "The Ladder of Lights" and the "Stairs of Shadow," so to speak. It's much easier to avoid accidently slipping into the pit or being tempted to dive head-first into things we weren't ready for and locked away. As always, I recommend people work through their virtuous side first, though. I've never worked with those entities, but I have great respect for both of them. The closest to them that I've gotten in my practice is maybe Cernunnos and Ceridwen? Hehe, I'm glad you liked that metaphor. Thanks for your time and interest. I very much enjoy talking with you. Be well!
9:54 Remember this, folks... Thanks for watching, and stay tuned for more videos on shadow work and other facets of the occult!
did you become a vampire while going through the Qlippoth?
@jacobdiden8967 It depends what you mean. That's not a term that I would use, necessarily. Mostly because that word has so many misconceptions attached to it. I don't need to feed off of others to sustain myself if that's what you mean. But that's because I integrate the Light side of my being as well, instead of locking it off like a lot of others do. I did notice a change in mindset. I also noticed a change in my "energy." I think the whole idea of vampires and werewolves are associated with unconscious repression of our animalistic impulses. Sure, there are spiritual beings, much like these two archetypes. And, sure, there's some connection to astral "transformation." But, mostly, it seems to have to do with repressed aggression. If you go through the Qliphoth, and all that happens, is that you become more aggressive or dependent on others, then you more than likely only opened your shadow side. It still needs to be integrated. Otherwise, you will be its slave. And that is not mastery or "godhood."
@@qliphoth_quest thanks so much! Very good to know. Im gonna go throw my computer at the wall.
@jacobdiden8967 Haha, maybe just go get some fresh air instead? Be well. And let me know if you have any more questions. Feel free to email instead if you like: 8olve.et.coagu7a@gmail.com
Very good introduction. Music is huge for me. The right sounds for me are the best triggers when trying to get into the right mode. I value silence too but I usually start with music while I perform then somewhere before it's over I stop my soundscapes and then just try to be receptive in silence. That with everything you mentioned here helps a lot. The only thing I never do is timing it with astrology. I know it could perhaps help but I tend to just spontaneously break out in The Witchcraft.
@badcooper235 Yes! Music is something I could've mentioned as well, thank you. Same. I could definitely work with natural cycles more than I do. Although, I do use them as long as it's not too inconvenient. Would you work with planetary hours and moon phases, or "just" the seasons?
Another thing to consider is the relationship between the immediacy of the effect, how conscious the change will be, and how long it will last for. Something like a "kriya" or "cantrip" (perhaps an etheric pulse to project an intention draped with an astral image) will have very conscious, immediate effects. But, typically, it will have a much shorter half-life, so to speak, than something like a continuously performed ritual or ceremony that takes much more time to perform.
I love the Rosetta Tarot. It is a stunning deck and meticulously thoughtful in its design. It's the deck that made me appreciate the Thoth system. 👍
@lauramayfair7887 It's definitely in my top three favorites. It's so precious to me that I only use it for meditation because I don't want it to get ruined by shuffling. Haha How long have you been interested in Tarot?
@@qliphoth_quest I can understand the love and protection of a beloved deck. I have been interested in Tarot since I was 15. I'll be 50 in March. We won't do the math 😂 The first deck I read with was my sister's Thoth deck. Just me and the little white book. I was fascinated by it. How about you?
@lauramayfair7887 I can only imagine the depth of connection you must feel to the cards and their symbolism at this point. Do you have a favorite card art or a certain card that speaks more to you than others? For me, The Hanged Man and The Hermit were always very special to me. My interest first began when I saw my teenage girlfriends mom reading cards. But, I was raised in a home that believed all things "occult" were inherently evil. So, I wouldn't actually get into the art until much later... My first deck was the RWS that I bought for myself because I didn't know anyone else to buy me one, and everyone kept telling me you can't buy your own. But, that just didn't make any sense to me, so I took the plunge and have been relatively passionate about Tarot ever since. That would've been just over a decade ago, eleven years maybe.
@@qliphoth_quest What I love most about Tarot, I think, is the way it is a living symbolic language. The way we interpret and conceptualize the cards is influenced by our times, similar to the evolution of spoken and written language. Tarot is timeless and reveals universal truths about what it means to be human. It never, ever gets old. I still learn new things from studying the cards. My favorite Major Arcana card is Strength. It reminds me how important restraint and grace are. In those moments when it would be so easy to choose the low ground, can we strive to do better? In the Minor Arcana I am fascinated by the Six of Swords. Mercury in Aquarius. Transitions and soul-journeys. Seeking innovative solutions to our problems, the fresh perspective that only a vision quest can give. I'm glad you took the plunge and purchased your own Tarot deck. A very apt "Fool-like" leap of faith. I hope that Tarot supports you always in this wondrous and strange existence through which we muddle our way. All best to you and thank you for chatting with me!
@lauramayfair7887 What an absolutely beautiful way to express the nature of the Tarot and the language of symbolism in general! I'm glad you've remained intrigued after all these years; although, what is a few decades in comparison to the journey of the soul? Haha Those are both excellent choices and excellent descriptions of their "energies." I still have the deck, too. Although, these days, I tend to read with the Aquarian Tarot. The tones and textures just do something to/for me that is just right for stepping into "that space." Thank you for this comment. It was very insightful and much appreciated.
Thanks for mentioning protection spells early.
Thanks for your time and attention! Let me know if there's anything you'd like me to cover as well.
@qliphoth_quest I had to move from my last apartment, and when my land lord asked me why I wanted to move and when I told him the place was getting too small to cast the spells I was working on, he didn't get it. Roflmao
This is one of the most overlooked ways of creating a connection with the subconscious mind and the unconscious aspect of our being! Letting go of conscious convictions about what is "correct" in your or others' practices and learning to release unhealthy cultural conditioning [if even for the moment] and let go of your ego to become filled with feral frenzy once again. Tap into your primal force via repressed actions and memories, and allow yourself to become free again!
