- THE ASTRAL STAR-GATES
While the pragmatic ceremonialist can certainly benefit from inscribing the signs in the ground (or on boards), it should be understood that these acts are performed in addition to the constructive visualization and “astral” work conducted and are not replacements for these non-material efforts. Whether they are maliciously malignant, actively seeking to enslave us away from the Source, or simply have a mission of radical earth-change that is beyond the moral comprehension of mortals, the threshold or “pass-not-ring” that extends beyond the seventh veil (and is actually connected to a “between” zone near the sixth veil) is sometimes referred to as the “Gate to the Outside” – and when coupled with the unnumbered Earth Gate, the mind seeks immediately to further separate this additional facet as a mysterious “Ninth Gate”. This is defined in the Mardukite ARCANUM [(2008) Joshua Free] book as:
“A barrier that separates the time-space of the Earth Planet from the ‘malignant’ primordial forces that are ‘locked out’. This gate operates independently of the others found along the Ladder of Lights…using the Elder Sign, Marduk sealed the Gate from ‘our’ side, where a race of earthborn could be selected to keep watch over the gate, which is the mystery tradition presented in the NECRONOMICON!”
An important key to remember when dealing with the nature of the ANUNAKI dimensions is that our world is really encompassed by one singular and unifying dimension which is equated to (equal and www.NecroGate.com one with) the Divine Spark of the Eternal Source – however… the mind-body system has been fashioned with several shells or layers that are perceived as separate from the perspective of the Ego, which is actually programmed to separate all things into parts beginning with the I-not-I monad (mundanely: what I am versus what I am not).
Some practitioners take the approach of “absolution” of polarities as opposed to “harmonizing” them. So long as perfected unity is attainable, both are acceptable for the neophyte to begin with. The “astral” equation is usually the part of the system (whether it be this, the Simonian or even Enochian magick) that seems to separate the “bookshelf sorcerers” and “armchair wizards” from the successful and dedicated seekers. This is not necessarily due to a lack of dedication, but to a lack of pure learning (true thinking) and the overcoming of bad habits in self-doubt and frustration concerning such efforts. Secondly, the astral is something that we all innately share ties to as a part of our natural state. Therefore accessing it should not be seen so much as “a thing to do”, rather, it is “a thing to be”.
In the physical world you are programmed to have a sensory stimulus-response with the most basic and lowest functioning vibrations possible. Many of them are beautiful, and the more natural they are, the higher the vibrations seem to be – and yet still, all that exists in the physical is but a mere shadow or mirage of light bent across the screen for your enjoyment. When you can patiently learn to adjust your “spirit vision” to see through the flickering lights of the physical, then you are ready to “step through the portal”.
