ma’at ;; egyptian mythology series

When Ra built the world from the primordial waters, Ma’at was set in motion, she who is goddess and concept. Justice and The Right are hers, and through her they are manifested upon the earth. She is the perfect harmony that maintains the universe.

Would the term “daeva” not be culturally ambiguous/neutral enough to suffice?

Bubba Hotep was wrong. Why was that the first thing I thought? XD

I had to google what that was. It’s not to say that the Egyptians didn’t have blood drinking demons, it’s just that they’re in the Book of Caverns and they don’t have names. We just call them demons because they look and act like what we expect our notion of ‘demon’ to be. This is why I couldn’t give a word for them because there simply isn’t one and demon is too set in pseudo-christian language to be culturally right.

Curious.

Random Witch Advice

That (mostly) doesn’t have anything to do directly with practicing, but is useful anyway.

Don’t test your abilities. Don’t try and see if your abilities are real. The universe can and will overpower your spiritual input and basically call you out on your bullshit and tell you to start being confident about your craft.

The best ingredients tend to be the most simple ones. You don’t need these expensive as hell materials to have a successful spell. Honestly, I’ve had spells where I get had a piece of paper, a pen, and a lighter, and guess what? They worked.

Moon water is such a useful tool. And so easy to make. Just make it if you don’t have any, even if you don’t need it right then and there. You might want it soon.

Are crystals necessary? No. Do they help a shit ton? Yes. Do you have to buy expensive ones? No. You could literally go to a craft store and find semiprecious gemstone beads - just make sure the beads aren’t man made replicas. Sometimes it can be hard to tell, so watch out!

You don’t need a black mirror or crystal ball to scry. Just grab a bowl, fix its energy, and fill it with water. Bam. Scrying instrument.

You don’t need a physical witchcraft journal to be an Official Witch. Sometimes, it’s just so much easier to make a labyrinth of links on a free make-your-own website and call it a day.

Tarot apps are better than no tarot.

If you can’t find a label for your craft and feel like you need one to be an Official Witch, you don’t. Just vibe, honey. Just go with it. You have a label that works enough on its own. It’s the word “witch”.

Check. Your. Sources. If someone posts something that seems sketchy, search into it. If someone posts something that’s to good to be true, search into it.

To follow up on the last one, when you notice misinformation, point it out (respectfully)! If the witch on the other end doesn’t budge, well, you tried, friend.

Absolute

Abstract space; that which is without attributes or limitations. Also known as sunyata, void, emptiness, Parabrahman, Adi-buddha, and many other names.

The Absolute has three aspects: the Ain, the Ain Soph, and the Ain Soph Aur.

“The Absolute is the Being of all Beings. The Absolute is that which Is, which always has Been, and which always will Be. The Absolute is expressed as Absolute Abstract Movement and Repose. The Absolute is the cause of Spirit and of Matter, but It is neither Spirit nor Matter. The Absolute is beyond the mind; the mind cannot understand It. Therefore, we have to intuitively understand Its nature.”

- Samael Aun Weor, Tarot and Kabbalah

“In the Absolute we go beyond karma and the gods, beyond the law. The mind and the individual consciousness are only good for mortifying our lives. In the Absolute we do not have an individual mind or individual consciousness; there, we are the unconditioned, free and absolutely happy Being. The Absolute is life free in its movement, without conditions, limitless, without the mortifying fear of the law, life beyond spirit and matter, beyond karma and suffering, beyond thought, word and action, beyond silence and sound, beyond forms.”

- Samael Aun Weor, The Major Mysteries
