CM vs Psionics

 As a chaote, you might hear about a lot of weird concepts you probably wouldn't understand right away.

This brings us to the 4 main paradigms: the Spirit model, the Energy model, the Psychological model and the Information model. The 5th model is basically a mixture of some of them, a hybrid model called the Meta model. 

Each model symbolizes a prevalent superstition, practice, or field of study intimately linked to the functioning of magic within their specific environments. The original guide by Frater U.D., the creator of this analytical framework, serves to elucidate the origins of these models, enabling one to differentiate among them. The model system may appear somewhat unfinished; however, fundamentally: the spirit model pertains to the belief in a higher power, the energy model to the manipulation of life force, the psychological model to altered states of consciousness, subconscious programming, sigilization, and so forth, while the information model relates to the actualization of intentions.

Psionics is an umbrella term for psychic abilities— or at least that's what it used to be. The Psionics community has mostly rejected the "Psychic agenda", which was infiltrated by cold readings and staged acts, and created their own naming system for abilities. Many eastern concepts have been excluded in modern practice by psions, though if mentioned it is kept within the context of the origin. Kundalini especially. You wouldn't want to be doing that with a method that's not Hindu of origin. Certain aspects of eastern philosophy are just westernized and used instead of them to avoid appropriation, such as spiritual energy and tulpamancy.

The definition most applicable to modern Psionics at this point is the practice, study, or psychic ability of using the mind to induce paranormal phenomena.

Described using the models of CM, Psionics would predominantly be occupied by the information model method-wise, subtly using the spirit model and energy model to bring forth results. The psychological model is used occasionally for training requisite aspects of the mind needed to develop new abilities.

My Not-So-Secret Hobby

Photo by luis gomes You might or might not know this, but I started learning to code in 2021. A dear friend taught me the basics of Python, but it was essentially up to me to decide if I was going to further my self-education of this coding language. At the time he taught me about variables, loops, lists and dictionaries in 3 days. Even though it was a lot to take in, it was something I really wanted to learn, which made it easier for me to absorb. I was hooked, until I realized I didn't have enough knowledge to build basically anything, which led me to try and learn from freecodecamp. It didn't work for me, honestly. The lessons were "interactive" in a sense, but weren't split into episodes or chapters which would've made it easier to keep track of where I left off the previous session. I tried other sources on YT to no avail. Udemy was next. This one helped me immensely to build both skill and confidence in my ability to code. Though I'm still building ...

A dream about my grandmother

I just had a dream about my grandmother. Well, I actually had quite a few dreams about her before waking up, but the last one was really impactful. I was walking in church looking for a place to sit and found an open space, but people sitting in that space told me it's reserved for their family, so I had to get up and find someplace else to sit. I walked around and saw my grandmother sitting next to an open space. She saw me and immediately invited me to sit next to her. For the first time I experienced the feeling of deep wistfulness and longing, as the feeling I got when I saw her is comforting. I walked up to the open space and she said: "You've forgotten about me, haven't you?", looking visibly upset. The space she kept open was just big enough for me to sit down comfortably, as if she's been waiting for me all this time. I embraced her tightly and warmly, wondering if the break she took from our household has made her a bit stronger. During her last days ...

We don't talk about "Ego"

" 'anamorphic polymorphic ego' nascita(birth) " by  tommy the pariah[away]  is licensed under  CC BY 2.0 .  So recently I've been indulging myself into books that delve into the deeper sides of chaos magick. Most of what I've read are methods of achieving a positive headspace. In most cases, a negative headspace is caused by pre-existing illness or ill-attended self-care. Magick, including mystic arts, religious practices and educational facilities thrive off positivity, as it is needed to achieve flow: the mental state associated with full mental immersion, better output and absorption of information. One of the methods explained in Postmodern Magic by Patrick Dunn. I'll be paraphrasing from here. Sitting in a place high in sensory stimulation can induce magickal flow. Somewhere like a mall with lots of talking, for example. But not to the point of sensory overload. The has to be enough variety of stimuli to cause mental turbulance. Listen with all of you...
