So magic and ritual are tools for reorganizing attention, intention, and behavior, independent of whether the metaphysics are “true.” Symbols are interfaces. Problems begin when they’re mistaken for reality.This maps cleanly onto how you should operate and whats been discussed here on /x/. Symbolic systems are provisional. They’re entered deliberately, exited deliberately, and never allowed to overwrite authorship. Dissociation is not loss of self; it’s controlled detachment. Utility beats ontology every time. If a framework increases clarity, stability, or agency, it’s valid for use. If it starts demanding belief, identity, or permanence, it gets dropped.The ideology diverges from tolerance for looseness. It’s comfortable lingering inside symbolic immersion and leaning on intuition or shared ritual to regulate exit. Your approach should be stricter. I assume symbols drift if unmonitored. Thresholds, interlocks, and exit conditions are required. Not because the ideas are dangerous, but because unchecked recursion is inefficient. Be careful with symbols and their associations.
>>41871230See, posts like this are totally meaningless. It's basically the occult version of business buzzword jargon soup:>Innovation is synergy and synergy is profit. To maximize synergy, we use advanced cutting-edge models of cohesive teambuilding technology here at ConglomCo!This is part of a broader pattern in /x/ posts. You guys really want to avoid making any claim that can be meaningfully criticized as much as possible. One way to do that is vagueposting, but this is another way - drown the reader in obtuse verbiage and hope they never realize what you're trying to say is "I do magic rituals whether they work or not."
>>41871249You can’t obfuscate a message telling the reader to form their own epiphanies. In fact, it forms trust, this place is filled with manipulation.
RETURN AGENCY TO THE READER!Anything else is influence wearing a friendly mask either your mask or your enemies
good threadt, crunchy
>>41871268Sure you can. "Trust your own beliefs" and "do your own research" have been staples of the occult and conspiracy communities for as long as they've existed. Telling someone "don't be manipulated" is a cheap way to gain their trust before manipulating them.
>>41871362Well you can stay here and wait for the manipulation shoe to drop I don’t mind
Change is the nature of all things and the metaphysical nature of change is expressed in one way as the fundamental theorem of calculus.The dynamic between integration and differentiation described is mirrored by a philosophical romance between being and becoming.https://ia800708.us.archive.org/28/items/simsane-9.1-vyrith/SiMSANE_9.1_Vyrith.pdf
