Aspecting: A Clear Perspective for the Laymen and Pro (2013)

 Aspecting (commonly termed possession) is explained briefly below. One involved in a non-traditional religion (be it rookie or experienced journeyman) should be well informed of possession and its positives and dangers. I personally have been involved in aspecting (possession) for 30 years now. My first aspecting experiences were taught to me by my Iroquois grandfather (whom was a true and last of his kind shaman) when I was 12 years old. Since, I have made extreme advances (within my own regards) to find myself and become one with my great patron deity. My experiences have been extremely positive and at times very negative (as many friends throughout my life will tell you, it’s not always good to be around someone under possession and at other times it is amazingly rewarding to all present). Throughout my journey, I have become quite accepting of purpose, limitations, addictions, hates and loves, and overall reality of my past, present and future. Aspecting will bring forth great truths and great deceptions… both must be understood and accepted when dancing with the gods, spirits and unknown forces.

A fast word of upfront advice: Many people wander off from the largest common religious paths (the big four: Buddhism, Christianity, Judaism, and Islam) to explore the world of “taboo, underground or non-traditional” faith based paths. These paths often incur the workings with spirits, demons, god/dess', faeries, deceased humans, lesser deities, multidimensional beings or the like; whatever term you use is yours, but it all invokes the same inherent risks. Aspecting is rarely used in most non-traditional religions; however, in some paths it is necessary or used randomly at times. I will not discuss the uses of possession which is very, very rarely used in extremely, micro-obscure sects of Christianity, Judaism, and Buddhism.

Aspecting with regards to “non-traditional” religions involves when a flesh and blood human undergoes a state of possession by a multidimensional being, spirit, demon, entity or god/dess; either within a controlled solo state, a mass ritual state, or random uncontrolled state. Some individuals define aspecting as connecting with the “divine” and channeling as connecting with “spirits or other beings”. Terminology is loose but tomato/ tomatoe.

Forms of Aspecting:

1) Ritual aspecting tends to be the most common form. It is used in both mass and private rituals or celebrations throughout West/ Central Africa, South America, Central America, the Caribbean, South Pacific, Australia, North America and Indonesia. Possession is invoked during an organized state of ritual at which some point possession is desired. Mostly it targets only certain individuals which are seeking to aspect with a spirit or multidimensional being for ritual purpose. Usually this form of possession is focused on bringing a higher power into the ritual to offer insight, answers, information, guidance, advice, or predictions. These rituals are well prepared and many forms of control are in place to prevent a host human from becoming fully overcome or terminally possessed by a spirit, god, being or entity.

2)  Controlled solo aspecting is less common and quite risky, but it occurs when an individual is by oneself and is seeking possession by spirits or other multidimensional powers for insight, knowledge, visions, connections, worship, or healing. It can be done via indoors or outdoors ritual. Usually desire, intent, and preparation are in place by the individual seeking such possession. The greatest majority of humans attempting this form of aspecting will often find themselves the majority of time left with no possession or contact by the gods, spirits, entities, or other beings… simply ignored. Solo aspecting when full possession is reached; I feel however, is the most rewarding form of aspecting. It is directed, personal, very upfront, very informative about one’s needs and questions, purpose, and full of instruction from deity for the human servant to reach oneness. Solo aspecting is also the most difficult to understand how to do and accomplish. Many people confirm full solo aspecting with a deity or higher spirit while by themselves; not to say yes or no, but the majority of the time it is simply being too drunk or too high or too drugged on something, which gives one a false sense of unity with a god or spirit. Its the drug or drink altering the mind to make it believe what you want to believe. (Natural sources of hallucinogens and forms of alcohol are often used a gateway to calm the mind and body so it can gain direct focus on aspecting and leave the daily life far behind).

3) Random uncontrolled aspecting is extremely rare and usually hits one quick with no warning. It can only be confirmed by others which observe the human under a fast state of possession. The human host rarely to never remembers it occurring and recalls nothing of the journey. Random uncontrolled aspecting happen under three conditions: full demonic possession and control, full-out achieved oneness with a god/dess, or great power, or a super random choosing of a higher power that selects a human target for an instant purpose.

            A) Full demonic possession is exactly as it sounds. Just as we see in the movies about demonic or dark possession. Some random humans are selected for no obvious reason at some point in life as hosts for very dark entities. The demons reasons behind their needs of a human host can never be rationalized by everyday humans. The host human usually operates normally in life, with time to time, dark overtaking by the demon to commit very evil tasks or undertakings. These people tend be easily noticed by the masses with up front signs of insanity, concealment, guilty, dark, mean, highly aggressive, and plain ruthless to no end.

            B) Achieved oneness with deity is considered the highest form of spiritualism by those seeking to be a walking representation of their patron deity. At this highest point of one’s physical life, their patron deity has given the highest attention to this flesh walker. This individual has achieved many goals and agendas for the deity. They have time and time again gone to the highest measures to meet that god’s goal for them. This form of aspecting is greatly discussed in the Kabala. This person is open and never closed to being possessed by his/ her deity at anytime, anywhere, and anyhow. Aspecting is easily achieved by this individual as a pathway of connection is always open. Often these people are seen by the masses as being confused, aimless, crazy, out of touch, mystic, intriguing or just plain weird.

            C) Random choosing is just as it says, random and very unique to situation. Often these people will only achieve this state of possession once in their lives. Their aspecting is forced by a higher power, some say angels or spirits. This is the type of fast, unwarned possession that overcomes a person suddenly to warn of a mass horrific event, or a mysterious confusion which overtakes the person and places them out of harm’s way, or human who suddenly gains super human strengths and abilities to render a dire situation null, or one who is taking over by a higher power to save many people at an instant time of need. Many people interviewed after one of these tragic events almost always says, “it felt as though I was over taking by some higher power and was given the ability to help or save without even being harmed myself.”

The Inner Sanctum Project (2013)

I had this dream just the other evening. It was quite brief and direct. Nothing much else to say, but it was a quick dimensional travel to a world of forgotten gods and heros.

My dream started with me hanging around in an ancient period of time amongst many people and creatures in a massive marble built series of rooms. All the structures were worn down and dirty (almost to the point of ruins). The rooms were very large, being hundreds of feet across and thirty plus feet tall. Large marble pillars held all of the ceilings up and divided the rooms. The floors were like one massive flat grade of marble surface; smooth, gray, cold and moist. The exit/ entrance of each room was a large, ancient, squared archway.

My story began as I stood in a far corner of the main room (later I found out it was called the inner temple/ sanctum). I was speaking to a few individuals which I cannot remember anything about other than a fading everyday conversion. Many people and creatures wandered with daily intent throughout the structure. At this point I felt within my dream that some sort of reconstruction was in place. Suddenly all became quiet and everyone froze in place. A distant, buffered and growing louder thump... thump started approaching from down a long hallway.

The loud footsteps stopped at the main archway and before us stood a twenty foot tall humanoid. He was middle-aged with a full yet short brown beard and short messy brown hair. He wore clothes which are more common to today's humans; cut-off dark jeans with a red and black flannel shirt. His build was massive and very intimidating. He looked very annoyed by his facial features.

The next step the giant made was to walk under the archway and press his hands and shoulders against the archway's top beam. He pressed upwards with no straining and pushed the beam upwards. The beam made a loud boom and "snapped" into place. Dust, gravel and dirt fell down all over him. He shook off the dirt and immediately made eye contact with me. (This honestly scared me badly). At that very point I said "Hercules".

Hercules (yes it was) started briskly walking towards me, as people moved quickly aside. He stopped a few feet from me and stared down. With a stern voice he said to me, "You build a maze in this sanctum! With a thousand walls and a thousand plants and trees. Don't Fail!" Then he walked off fast and disappeared down the long hallway.

My initial fear of him "Hercules" faded quickly and I became angry. I asked, "Why would he dare demand me to complete such a massive task when we stand on equal grounds in the heavens?" I left the room by myself and wandered the ancient streets trying to make sense of this all. Next I found myself coming across the presence of a very old man. He had a white beard, white bushy hair and skin as white as snow. He was dressed very simple.

As we casually walked together down the old streets and alleyways, the old man asked, "What is bothering you?" I told him of my encounter with Hercules and his demands of me. He nodded and replied, "Ah Yes, the old inner temple project. A lot of work to done, but it will be a wonder to behold when it is complete."

I asked the old man if there was anything I should know or do? He offered only a few things: A massive minotaur will be placed in the maze, a giant turtle will wander freely in the maze as a caretaker, and the flowers and trees will offer peace and calm to those venturing in. The last thing he said was, "If you need any help, everyone will help you proudly if you ask them. Remember your position and status among us!"

I next awoke abruptly as a massive thunderstorm was rocking outside of my house.
