She is Morrigan and Dana and even has been the Dragon of ________—
She feeds me fruits—she envelopes me and dwells within—
Evoking [Elethis] in Saiyûnor and here sometimes feels like I’m already “inside” them and it’s harder to do so (or easy enough I think it should be harder)
Part of me worries about what is going on, but I don’t really want to—I want whatever we are doing to me, how we are shaping body, spirit, mind—
Confidence is relaxed—if you have to screw your courage to the sticking place then you’re neither confident nor relaxed—you’ve mixed fear and mania and anger and will burn through fear or rage—
–but I can’t view myself as a series of tasks and habits; I feel I should respond and live, adapting and dealing with issues as I notice them. [Maintain self-reflectivity.] I also feel I should relax into Saiyûnor and [Elethis] and so on—not slack into them, but I shouldn’t allow “hunger” for them to drive me, or to drive myself into “hunger.”
“Am I dying?” I asked Her last night, thinking of all those who wasted away [into faerie] and were taken. “I’m helping you live.”
Evoke [Elethis] along and into the Presence/body while channeling elthil, or at least while aware of kinesthesia, etc. Also that sense of wings still comes sometimes, and Dana’s Morrigan aspect and our connection makes that sense make some sense. They’re not constant—they’re definitely more a “Phoenix effect” aura sorta thing.
Dana told me last night there’re “dwarves” at the white mount, and there are others in the woods—but I need to improve my projection and Presence before I go social.
I sometimes feel very manic, and in part, I may be hyperventilating myself at times. However, other things convince me: if nothing else, the “soul work” and “self-therapy” keep me going. And I try to be patient.
The forms of halthaya, mûl-ôl, and hurur are multitudinous: worrying about insanity, is it delusion? Yes, you need to guard against those things; but you can’t go halfway. “Sane” doesn’t magic. “Sane” isn’t _____. “Sane” is a prison. Be self-reflective. Check delusion. But you can’t be sane.
I reject “sanity.” I reject delusion.
It occurs to me that shaping the flesh is easiest by nudging the body’s processes via magic: long term use of regeneration to effect transformation. Keep at it: let the body catch up and shift. Help it as you can. More vulgar effects are possible, but without the proper developed knack—I suppose “skill” can be used—then you put yourself at risk of illness or injury. The elthil concretized in the body must be tapped, shifted, and allowed to settle and stabilize. This process can avoid accidental problems and shocks or mere glamours of form.
You should start experimenting with vulgar magicks in “subtle” ways: not as elaborate things but as just…acts. Fuck with a door and make it a path into the Dream. See what happens. Make defixio for outlandish things. Or what you think are “outlandish.” You need to break the expectations and limitations you’ve been conditioned to accept.
