2nd Degree Magickal Initiation

The principle power and ordeal of this degree is to publicly come out of the closet and openly be known for who you are and for what you believe.

There is trickery implied within the initiation itself that suggests the possibility of "coming out" in a way that does not hurt or cause damage or endangerment to one's social status or employment.

This initiation begets two types of initiates, those that openly proclaim publicly who they are and damn the consequences and those that find a way around the obligaton to fullfill it through word but not through spirit.

In this manner cleverness is seen to be equal to the ability to take pain and hardship thus planting the seed that deception of others might be admissible conduct.

Freemasonry has the story of a Knight that was charged to openly declare his membership by publicly posting a bill containing the particulars of his membership to a forbidden organization. The clever knight wrote his own information on the "back" of a different bill and posted it in public so that others saw it but could not read what was written on the back.

Some Knights were angry saying he had cheated. Other knights felt that he had shown true brilliance and should be rewarded. His trickery was allowed. He became a superior in the Order….This initiation seems to be somewhat based on that old story.

In addition to publicly coming out of the closet the initiate is also taught the importance of guarding and coming to the defense of his or her brothers and sisters. Even the strongest warrior has moments of weakness and it is at these times that the support of his or her brothers and sisters is most needed.


I can vouch that openly coming out of the closet is a very empowering experience. Anarchist World is my open proclaimation of who I am and what I believe. It has been incredible!

All too often people get the wrong impression and are led to believe something when the opposite is the truth. There are always two ways to veiw something. Take the word "Anarchist" for example. Many take the word in a context different from the way I use it. I use the term "Anarchist" as someone that places the "inner voice of their conscience" over external authority. This is a mystical and spiritual conception.

1st Degree Magickal Initiation

The 1st Degree Initiation is a very serious thing that creates a magickal link between the initiate and the Order that lasts for life. This is a very serious matter not to be lightly taken.

We consider this Initiation entry into the egregore of the Order. When we cross this threshold our entire being crosses and our very essence will be contained and to a degree controlled by this egregore. The egregore is a force stronger than us and we voluntarily submit in the understanding that such submission will mold us in the way we are meant to be molded. In a way the egregore of the Order is a "soul catcher" and we place our "trust" in it.

As this egregore envelopes and contains us it also isolates and protects us from outside influences. The ties we have with other non-Order influences are severed one by one until there is only the Order itself. We are to find everything, even love within the Order. This of course is only my interpretation of what happens. Every group has it's own ways.

During this initial initiation we are brought into contact with a magickal current called "The Light of Life". This is represented by the pentacle we are given at the conclusion of the ceremony. In solving this riddle we consider that "Spiritual Light" is represented by the sun in the lower degrees and in the higher degrees "The Light of Life" is represented by sexual/bio-electrical energy.Thus in this first initiation we are in some manner impressed with the sexual/bio-electrical energy of the Order through a physical initiation.

This energy is transmitted through the initiator who is a channel for this energy. It should be noted the 1^st Degree initiation does not involve sexual practices. It merely involves an introduction to sexual/bio-electrical energy generated through ceremony by the men and women within the group. Many Orders require that males initiate females and vice versa. This is true of Gardnerian Wicca.

We get a glimpse of a magickal Order founded on and created out of sexual/bio-electrical "Light of Life" energy and "grounded" through hard physical activity and ritual. This reminds me more of the "shamanistic" path than the mystical path. The Shamanistic path involves the crossing of a lower abyss and the connection to a "power animal".

There is not much "mysticism" to be noted within magickal groups although literature is littered with the concept of "raising" the "Light of Life" or "kundalini" into the "Spiritual Light". All things considered, when you take the sexual/bio-electrical energy teachings and combine them with the mystical Literature describing and leading to the crossing of the Great Abyss, you have the recipe for becoming a God or Goddess and developing the seven sheathes or astral bodies and the "immortal body". This is the true source of magickal power known to the great mystery school of the ages. It is the combining of the Cosmic "Light" energy and the "Dark" Earth energy that brings true magickal empowerment.

In magickal Orders I find the process to be first the magickal path and then the mystical path while OAK first follows the mystical path and then the magickal path. In this manner they are true reciprocals of each other. The interesting thing is that the OAK energy ball work finishes the Spiritual aspect of the Great Work and can be done in a matter of days leaving more time for developing the earthly connection.

The "earth connection" and entry into the "shamanic underworld" is rapidly achieved by the generation of physical activity like martial arts or physical training of some kind. Athletes do have magickal power in their abilities to manifest physical events. If you want to enter the shaman underworld sign up for marine bootcamp. In two months your lower astral body will be activated and your "earth" connection will be strong.

It is the "middle" sexual/bio-electrical energy and the development of the astral sheathes and "immortal body" that takes years.

What I'm saying is "magickal orders" follow the magickal path first and then the mystical path while "mystical orders" like the Rosicrucians follow the mystical path first and then the magickal path. This makes OAK a "mystical order".

In this degree the candidate is requested to become familiar with the techniques and accept them as a guide to life. I will comment on these techniques in later posts.

The energy current that passes through the new initiate will increase his or her vitality and magnetism. This means they will both attract and repell things more strongly. Their lives will become more intense and there will be a growing need to gain mastery of these new energies.

The Suggestive Universe

Before I get down into working with magickal energies I would like to share this most important concept. The universe is suggestive and tends to do what is expected. What you expect to find has a greater possibility than what you don't expect.

Physicists are finding that their own expections seem to influence what happens on the subatomic level.

People are very suggestive and tend to comply with what other people ask unless they have a good reason not to. There is a natural instinct to comply with external authorities. This is survivalistic in nature. "Do what you are told or else".

The Rosicrucians teach that you may petition the Cosmic and it will respond as long as what you ask for is 51% unselfish. That means it will benefit others just as much or a little more than it will benefit you.

Where does all this leave us?

In all magickal work it is very important to have a strong and vivid image of what you desire. Even more importantly you need to ask for it! You need to ask the Cosmic and you need to ask people. If you are not letting others know what you want how can they let you have it or give it to you?

It is good magickal practice every day to clearly state what you want and let people know why it is in their own best interests as well. If you do this deliberately every day it will become a habit and the results will begin to flow toward you magickally!

I've seen the greatest results in my marriage. By clearly expressing things to my spouse there is greater understanding and greater mutual support. It helps her to understand me better and I listen to what she wants and gain a greater understanding of what is important to her.

It feels good to know what is important to someone else and be able to do that for them.

Think back over what happened yesterday. Did you specifically ask in prayer or meditation for something you desired? If you didn't why not? Your intuition can guide you to find the opportunities that seek but you need to listen to it.

Did you specifically state to someone else just what you wanted or did you let a tangled communication slide and not bother making it right? Every time we allow this someone walks away with a wrong understanding of us and what we want.

The last part of this message is about listening to the feedback we are getting from both the universe and from other people. If the universe and other people are saying "no, I'm not going to let you have that" we need to understand why.

There are areas in our lives that are "cursed". We repell what we want no matter how hard we try. The only way to break that curse is through old fashioned competency and doing things the hard way.

The needed actions come out of our blind spots and the only way to progress is through trial and error. There are lots of errors because we instinctively choose the wrong things and do the wrong things. This can't go on forever though. If we learn from our mistakes we gradually figure out what we are doing wrong and make corrections. This means becoming more realistic.

Just remember the brick wall manifests when we are going in the wrong direction even if we are convinced it is the right direction. Perhaps the need is to go around some obstacle that is in the way and not through it.

The greatest magick empowerment comes from changing curses into blessings. At the same time it is important to take a rest from the fight once in awhile and smell the roses in your garden. Don't forget the areas in your life that are blessed. They are more than willing to cooperate with you. They will give you the peace to remain centered and to continue.

The Soul of Humanity

I swayed as a wave of light swept over me and lifted me into an altered state. I had just finished a self initiation from one of my weekly Rosicrucian Monographs. The energy in my living room was incredible. I had never felt anything like it. My hair felt like static electricity was every where.

Slowly I opened my eyes. They were drawn to the center of the living room. A seated figure was floating about three feet off the ground. He was dressed in a robe and his aura radiated love and authority. He didn't say anything but the message was clear. You have done well, you have earned this visit.

I didn't believe what my eyes were seeing and carefully moved around the floating figure veiwing it from every direction. It did not vanish or go away. It was very real. It lasted for an hour before fading away.

That is what the Rosicrucians were to me, very real. One of the things they taught was that humanity shared a single soul. We are all part of the same soul. We are all part of each other. The Collective Soul of humanity is very real and very powerful.

It has been known by many names. Ancients called the soul of humanity "Adam" or "Adam" and "Eve". The "God" and "Goddess" are the guiding intelligences of the human race. They are very much human and very real. "Adam" is the male portion of the human soul and "Eve" is the female portion.

In their combined form they are simply termed "The Collective", "Cosmic Consciousness" or "Cosmic Awareness". To contact these divine intelligences is to achieve "Christ Consciousness". This has always been the goal of mystics around the world. The Rosicrucians were just one school of thought but they were very real.

There are many schools that are real and each person will be drawn to the school that is right for them. OAK is such a school and will attract souls in harmony with its concepts and practices. Each must trust their hearts and instincts in this.

We share a common soul but like the human body there are many different systems. In the human body the circulatory system is different from the digestive system. The respiratory system is different from the nervous system. This is a metaphor that tries to show how belief systems can be radically different yet still valid in the greatest context.

Each system of thought, each school has a magickal power or current that flows through it and through all individual members that belong to it. This current is real, this magickal power is real. You can feel it when you come in contact with it.

Walking a solitary path is not valid in this sense. There are only a small handful of mystics and magicians capable of "bringing fire from Heaven" and tapping into the raw power of the cosmic. Even they need initiation into a valid school for early training and soul development. This training allows them to reach out even further to the Source. Everyone else needs initiation into a magickal current of collective energy. This is done through membership in a valid school.

I was drawn to the Rosicrucian current and initiated into it at the age of eighteen. This was followed by later initiations into the Traditional Martinist Order, York Rite of Freemasonry and Ordo Templi Orientis.

It was the Rosicrucians that helped me in my journey across the Great Abyss. OAK is the "fire" that has been entrusted to me. It is the gift I have been given to share. OAK is a valid magickal and mystical school. Its initiations are real and empowering. They bring a person in contact with the energy of the new eon that is now surging through this world.

You will know in your heart if this energy is compatable with the energy of your own soul. You will know if this knowledge is what you are seeking. The attraction or repulsion will be very real and very strong. Take a few minutes to reflect upon your own reaction to these words and sense their rightness or wrongness for you.
