        EXERCISES FOR ELEMENTAL ABSORPTION, & PROJECTION
        ------------------------------------------------
        Our Lady of Enchantment, Magick of Sorcery Course #2

This exercise is very important to the art of magickal influences.  It
is through the absorption and projection of the elements that certain
metaphysical forces are drawn towards manifestation.

        1) Absorbing Fire:
        Sit comfortably and imagine yourself in the center of a sphere
of fire ( nothing exists but you and the sphere).  Inhale, imagining
that this fire is drawn into your body.. Imagine that you are hollow
and being filled with fire Keep count of how many breaths (with a
string of beads) it takes you to become filled with fire.

        While you are inhaling an element imagine the desired
characteristic which corresponds to it.  Mentally fix it and
emotionally fix it.  Once you have completed this stage, visualize
yourself (inside & out) glowing red.  Now you are ready to project the
element.  Exhale upon the object, glowing with it. With each act of
exhaling count again with the beads.  You must exhale exactly as many
times as you inhaled.

        2) Absorbing Air:
        This is done the same as with Fire except you will inhale air
and see yourself as expanding with the Air. You will have the
sensation of growing lighter.  There will be no temperature change.

        3) Absorbing Water:
        Same above method. Imagine the sensation of coldness filling
you.  Become heavy but fluid, feeling the weight of movement.

        4) Absorbing Earth:
        Same manner as the others, Imagine the sensation of weight,
feel loose soil pouring in like sand in an hour glass.  Do not imagine
clay earth as this has water in it.  Do not imagine tempeture change.

  Enjoy the Magick!
