Egyptian majick

[Magus Habilus]

Anyone in here have an interest?;)

[Naomi]

What, specifically, M.H.? It's a very very broad topic encompassing entire realms and contradicting itself internally especially with the competition between dynasties. I think everyone on this forum has at least some vested interest in the study of Egypt and the gods therein.

Kinda thin actually....the field is ripe for discussion!

In sort of an agreement with Naomi this is almost too broad a subject to just casually discuss especially when you ask about it in the manner you have. Asking occultists and/or magickians if they have an interest in Egyptian magick is almost like asking if we have an interest in Qabalah. There is almost by default some sort of Egyptian influence whether real, imaginary, mythical, direct or indirect in every aspect of the "Western Esoteric Tradition".

I just read an article that said evolutionary theory was actually introduced by egyptian scientists thousands of years ago, with apparently good documentation to back it up...I think it was in the muslim alchemy article posted by deviadah (xst, might have actually been at his own site cuz i can't find it now)...

anyway...sure...egyptian stuff is everywhere and incorporates so many cultural influences it's hard to say what isn't egyptian or egyptian-influenced in the realm of magick or occult philosophy generally...

I've always been especially partial to their exalting of animal natures in their infinite array of godforms etc...Xians often whine about egyptian stuff being polytheistic but considering their hate-record against nature I suspect what really bothers them is all the emphasis on nature...

technically speaking Xianity is polytheistic too, they just won't admit to it. You've got father, son, holy ghost (who is capable of infinite manifestations) and just recently the catholic church has finally admitted Mary to the official Xian *pantheon*...it's so confusing...I just don't know who to pray to anymore...can't they just pick one god and leave it at that? :cool:

Im just drinking some beer right now that is said to have been an Egyptian discovery...(bread-beer stuff)...and knowing this is to me Egyptian magic too...Japanese sake is also brewed like this and thereby can be considered as a beer btw...

m1: yeah and look at all the xtian saints to that one can plead in various circs like tooth ache or having lost something (Antonius I think) etc..."it all comes in again through the backdoor".

Exactly... and I would go so far as to say it has influenced all other aspects of human developement - not only magick and occult!

Here's two more threads apart from those already supplied by Naomi:

Xians should be prayin to me when I peel their face off for being retarded. I'll be the patron saint of facial peels.

Not likely to happen until I'm dead but I can dream.

I did a year of Anubis worship, when I was 14, piles of dead roses and bones and a little anubis head I picked up down at the Egyptian shop at Pike Plce Market where I got my lointcloth.

I know one thing about Anubis and that is his claws on the statue from Tutankhamen's tomb are made of silver which was rarer, mucher rarer than gold in Egypt and extremely valuable...

I didn't know this...

But I can understand it... actually the apperance of silver does look more expensive than gold (in my humble opinion). Gold has a tendency to look cheap...

:cool:

There is gold that looks like silver too (let's not forget that)!

Such an informative crew you have here! way cooler than the other place.

Now that I know I can be more speciffic,Egyptian Alchemy using resonances of materials,elements,and chants to change the reality of the user.aka magic.

There is an alchemic method of turning silver into gold by hammering it under pressure in a cold enviroment.
