Yet A New Blogpost: "The Inner Altar"

Hello everyone. Wrote yet another blogpost out of inspiration:

https://themysticalhawk.blogspot.com/2023/09/the-inner-altar.html

Hope you enjoy the read and any criticism or feedback is welcome.

Em Hotep, and best regards.

I am glad to see other Asetianists creating. Nice posts!

Thank you for sharing this article Mystic. It's always a pleasure to see when others write with an honest heart about this beautiful tradition and its timeless wisdom beyond the confines of our more secretive circles.

Thank you both.

Beautiful and deep, will need to read it multiple times and think about it...

Also you mentioned runic pathworking the other day. It would be cool if you wrote more about your practices with this!

Thank you, Morell.

As for runic pathworking, Troublemaker, I'll think about it but for now I keep it a more private yet too simplistic practice. It's always an art that can be developed further but it bases itself on (in my case very simple) divination. If you have any specific questions I can try to answer them. We talked about it in the Discord server.

From what I keep hearing over and over from different sources about this Discord server it seems that it's slowly becoming one of the best semi-public spaces to discuss Witchcraft and the olde Occult Arts online. It's a shame that I don't have the time to be there, I have a feeling it will establish itself as an essential place of educated discussion to those seeking to learn the mysteries of the Craft and obtain feedback from some of the most experienced practitioners in the field. Such news make me pleased and proud of all of you.

There are some truly remarkable occultists in the server.
It is quite a blessing to be there.
“ Remember that one must not seek to avoid the scorching of Flames but allow for them to flow through you without hesitation, cursing one with the gnosis and liberation capable of removing, breaking and dissolving what is not essential and making renewed states with the liminal space where it can flourish that which is pure, raw, untamed and real.” - from Nadia Smith

There are even more incredible things I could quote although I am not sure some of them would like being quoted here, it’s hard to know since I don’t really know them very well.
But the Flame is unmistakable, inspiring, and a true blessing to witness and learn from, even if in small bits and pieces here and there.

"It is then in this view that we find the inner altar to this divine alignment precisely within Self - devoid of ego or so having masterfully tamed it only to our higher service as a tool for balanced incarnation. The only container, as a brazier, by which we can honestly and soulfully embody that Flame, in a way finding an inner sanctum within our heart of hearts, our Ib of Ba, as the doorway of the inner temple, leading to the alignment with the Current and honoring the Flame of Aset as the unifying Essence of this Path. Within the heart of Self, within the Ib of Ba, an altar, raised in Her honor... "

These words touched me very deeply. I am having some issues lately regarding spirituality, and reading that made me "feel" that inner energy, that beautiful altar we hold for Her... and that maybe I am a bit distant, and should urgently reconnect.

Thank you for this wonderful reading.

Nadia Smith is not only an accomplished PhD in the field of ancient history as she is a remarkable occultist with a very unique signature humbleness that is extremely rare to find at such a high level. That sort of kindness and friendliness that everyone shares about her in various communities and fields of knowledge is truly worthy of note and merit. Many years ago someone of much worth once told me that Nadia is a better teacher than most published authors in the current occult scene and I am inclined to agree.

In all these years I haven’t met a single person who doesn’t absolutely adore Nadia Smith. Her community work spans literally DECADES. Not just one or two decades either. One of the few who was around before all of the modern players even appeared in the various communities. She has helped so many lost people along the years that it’s simply beyond count at this point. She genuinely has all my respect.

I don’t really have words, other than to say that I wholeheartedly agree with you both.

Thank you, Lynskha, I'm honored by your words though I don't hold myself in such high esteem. Nevertheless I'm glad it's been of such value for you and for that I'm only humbled.

As for Nadia, I very much agree with your comments on her here. Has my highest respect. Feel only great love for her, as a wise and elder Asetianist. She's been of tremendous help and support to me as well, sometimes in quite dire situations. In a way, I view her almost like a motherly figure, in a protective and guiding way. Very dear to me. (I often don't say this, so don't tell her I said this! haha)

I agree with you! She is truly legendary, a high quality leader who has made such a tremendous impact on this Path.
Don’t tell her I said that either, she will deny it. Haha

She has been a very kind, and good friend. Respectfully distant, though only the Best wishes to her.

I have deep respect for Nadia. She is a great person, with a tremenduous occultist background. She has always been very kind.
