My Practices are Gaining on Me
Jul. 26th, 2010 06:31 amFor at least a year now, I've been operating under a habit of doing at least a Qabalistic Cross and Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram ("QC" and "LBRP"). I haven't been as consistent with my Middle Pillar and meditation -- but that's starting to shift.
I did several days in a row of full practices this past week, and its started to sink in. Last night I went to bed late, so I only did the QC and LBRP -- plus the Rose Cross ritual, a new nightly must-do, and then went to bed. I did my backward review of the day and went to sleep.
But there's a lingering sense of "offness" -- and it tracks back to not doing the Middle Pillar and the meditation. Especially the meditation. There's a sense of *needing* to go deeper into the symbolism of the Tree of Life, to continue the work of ascent that happens in that practice (but not only in that practice).
