So, I haven't had a lot of time to do magical stuff recently what with jobhunting.  But I find that from time to time I need to do something else to keep from driving myself insane looking at classified ads online.  Mostly I've been reading webcomics and playing some old computer games and watching some tv on hulu.com to help de-stress.  But last night I couldn't seem to fall asleep, and I felt drawn to do things a bit more metaphysical.

Magically, I do a lot of what I term "relational magic".  It's magic that involves links, bonds, and connections.   I base a lot of it on Huna's aka theory, though I also find concepts like the laws of similarity and contagion and name-magic to be quite useful.  I'm still working on blending these and other elements into a more coherent whole.

One of my side projects for the past year has been gateworking.  Having reverse engineered the Orgone Crystal Matrix, popularly known as the Reiki Matrix or Babalon Matrix, I've been curious about how it can be used for gateworking.  I've come to find out that it is primarily used for a form of gateworking that I would variously term shamanic journeying, pathworking, or spiritwalking depending on the context.

I'm exploring other ways to work with it for gateworking.  Presently, I am attempting to use it to strengthen the connection between this world and Alorya, an elven world I have memories of, by cycling energy back and forth through the aka cord that connects the two worlds.   Another way of looking at it would be that I am attempting to broaden the portal between the two worlds.  I'm not entirely sure if it will work or not, though the theory seems sound.  It is somewhat like exercises used in Huna and other traditions to strengthen the connection between the three aspects of the human soul.  Only the cord stretches out into a road... one which spans worlds.

Just an experiment for now.  Don't know if it will go anywhere or not.  But it's improved my mood from jobhunting somewhat, and that's magical enough for me.
