Quickening the Seeds with Lightning!

Here we go team –

let’s put this in our pipe and smoke it:

Dion Fortune:

“With enemy planes rumbling overhead, she organised a series of visualisations to formulate “seed ideas in the group mind of the race”, archetypal visions to invoke angelic protection and uphold British morale under fire. “The war has to be fought and won on the physical plane,” she wrote, “before physical manifestation can be given to the archetypal ideals. What was sown will grow and bear seed.” As the war developed, this was consolidated with further work for the renewal of national and international accord. For the first time the Fraternity’s doors were opened to anyone who wanted to join in and learn the previously secret methods of esoteric mind-working. With unswerving optimism she guided her fraternity through the dark days of the London Blitz, continuing her weekly letters even when the bombs came through her own roof.”

She wrote:

“Let us meditate upon angelic Presences,

red-robed and armed, patrolling the length

and breadth of our land. Visualise a map of

Great Britain, and picture these great Presences

moving as a vast shadowy form along the coasts,

and backwards and forwards from north to south

and east to west, keeping watch and ward so that

nothing alien can move unobserved. “

– The Magical Battle of Britain by Dion Fortune

Dion Fortune’s magickal act worked

on several sound magickal theories:

“She believed that trained ritualists could combine their

efforts to influence the collective Will of the British people,

not any one individual.

She utilized easily-recognizable culturally-based spirits

and egregors whose meaning would be intuitively

understood by thousands of people.

She drew upon spirits and egregors already associated

with the purpose for which they’d been called.

She created simple acts of magick that could be

easily imitated, and contributed to, by a wide range of

individuals in disparate geographical locations.

She was doing a Working in a cause that

thousands of people were passionate about.”

So, as ally Dion Fortune was dedicated to planting seeds –

let’s Tricksterize, toss quickening lighting at the seeds

(as lightning encourages mushrooms to grow):

“ZAP! Lightning, Gods, and Mushrooms”

and perhaps we shall customize the protective angels

– am partial to animal protectors, the Divine as giant Wolfote,

bow-wowing down in front of us : “Woof-Woof Wanna Play?!”

We have an abundance of lightning available

for experimenting – as Mars and Uranus are

conjoined at the protect life degree.

“A woman carries a precious

veiled burden into the future.”

(I prefer treasure to burden, although

the etymology of “burden” is great:

“Old English byrðen “a load, weight, charge, duty;”

also “a child;” from Proto-Germanic *burthinjo-

“that which is borne” (source also of Old Norse byrðr,

Old Saxon burthinnia, German bürde, Gothic baurþei),

from PIE root *bher- (1) “to bear, to carry; give birth”.

from Online Etymology Dictionary)

And the Sun-Neptune conjoining in Pisces

also point to “setting in motion prayers that

will benefit the next seven generations…” Woo-Hoo!
