Visualization in Spellcrafting



Proficiency at visualization is most important to all occult training. The ability to visualize is integral to spellcrafting.

The receptacle of the imagination is integral to the process of creation. Change through intent begins with inspiration, passes through the realm of the imagination, is manipulated by the emotions of enthusiasm, desire, empathy, and compatibility and is transformed into a manifest outcome according to the proficiency of the process.

When the required depth is plumbed, it's possible to stand with the eyes open and see clearly that which you have created with the power of the mind.

As meditation is the process of stilling the mind while relaxing the body, so visualization utilizes that peaceful, relaxed state for the creation of altered states, increased awareness through controlled and conscious intent, contact, manifestation, and summoning.

Exercise:
1. Relax and go into your meditation.
2. Visualize blackness as far as you can see.
3. Onto that black screen, visualize a white circle. Start at twelve o'clock on the circle and visualize eliminating the circle by circumnavigating, clockwise, to where you began. Then recreate the circle in the same way.
4. Hold the image of the circle for exactly as it is for the count of ten, then eliminate it as before.

You can then create in your imagination any event that will occur within a set timeframe in your mental reality.
