You will experience Gnosis in the most unusual places.

I’m inviting you to join me in an experiment. Pick one of the digitally created sigils above and charge it using whatever method or ritual you normally use.

Visualize whatever you need or want to bring forth in your life. Raise as much emotional energy as you can and project it into the sigil.

These sigils are infused with the elements of Eros and Venus. You don’t need to be manifesting love or carnal desire—use them for whatever intentions you wish to bring forward. I have found that both Eros and Venus allow me to raise potent inner power.

My hypothesis is that the combined energies of desire raised by multiple magicians, witches, and practitioners will supercharge these sigils, producing better results for all involved. “Energy flows where attention goes,” as my New Age yogi friends like to say. There is no need to know anyone participating.

If you try this, please let me know about your experiences.

Another great short from Aeon Byte Gnostic Radio.

Otto Rahn's strange obsession with the search for the Holy Grail.

A nice summary of my interview with Richard Stanley on his new book: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQq9AxBCUs8&t=1sI know, I know, it’s AI Slop. But I did ...

What is Gnosis?
I don’t know.

I’ve read the books.
Argued the theories.
Nothing stuck.

Meditation calms the heart,
steadies the breath,
opens the eyes—
but leaves the gates of heaven shut.

Truth, said Krishnamurti,
is a pathless land.

Gurus rise and fall.
Saints stumble.
Even the awakened are human.

I’ve chased light in temples,
in whispers,
in the gaze of a teacher.
It comes when it will.
It may not come at all.

Gnosis?
Maybe a wind that passes through you.
Maybe nothing at all.

I asked the sage, “What is Gnosis?”

She looked at me for a long time.
The wind shifted.
Somewhere, a bell rang.

When I turned back,
she was gone.

I asked the sage, “What is Gnosis?”

She smiled.
“Madness to the world.
A thorn to the skeptic.
Fear to the devout.
Love to the mystic.
Awareness to the soul.”

Then she was gone.

The Nil Point is the act of creation, the moment the self is annihilated and is then reborn free from all delusion. The Nil Point is no dark, empty void; it is filled with the wild luminosity of life.

Another version of the "Nil Point" poem

06/19/2025

"And just when the darkness
became too much to bear
and the struggle too hard,
the light broke through
and the caterpillar emerged
a butterfly
delicate but unbroken,
wild and gentle,
finally free to spread its lovely wings
and fly away on the wind.”

Diagnosis first, then Gnosis.
