In higher ritualism, it is the purpose of the ritual to create and program thoughtforms. These are spiritual invocations/creations of living energy. Whether done consciously or unknowingly, is the difference in control.
I think back to a lot of 'prayer meetings' and church sessions that invoke a common thought process and embue this process with the energy and purpose of communal thought through a common ritual such as communion, sing-alongs, common thoughts over spiritual subjects (powerful preaching), etc. In most cases these create thoughtforms whose energy and sole purpose is to make spiritual contact with the worshippers. This they do and their energy disperses to the members and the building in which they worship, so in a way they are creating their own holy spirit and being touched by that spirit as a community. This is what makes such gatherings powerful draws to people searching for a true experience. This is also how many prayer groups get results as they are communally invoking a thoughtform with a purpose that transcends the spirtitual to the material. This is important for any higher practitioner to understand, Christian or other for the simple purpose of understanding the powers that manifest, how they are manifested, and how to work with them.
With them! Yes, that is what I meant to say. Most responsible practitioners are all working for the same greater good whether they be Christian or not. There are no enemies here. Where the caution must be is how the energy thoughtform is directed. Once you realize it is a thoughtform, you may certainly redirect the energy and use the good intention programmed in to it to greater purpose without harm to any. A practitioner does this by knowing the power over the spiritual attempt to manifest the physical. The physical being the world of matter or the realm of Yaltaboath and the spiritual being the realm of Sophia if we are to use the terms of the Apocrypha. In Celtic terms this would be physical as the realm of Tethra and spiritual as the realm of Tara with Baylor/Cernunos and Brigit/Etienne respectively. By invoking these powers you then have control over the manifestation of the thoughtform and can 'reprogram' its purpose so to speak. This also goes for hostile thoughtforms although preventing their manifestation can be much trickier prior to redirecting their energies. Wards are best to delay manifestation or redirect without conscious manipulation. More on this later, but for now, a simple mirror ward suffices to either bounce back, or trap indefinitely depending on how the ward is constructed.
What I really want to delve in to is the invocations of powers according to the Apocrypha of John. What I find thoroughly fascinating is how each is associated with a named Angel or Demon of Yaltaboath (the physical associated with its spiritual properties) and the assertion that the whole is indeed greater than the sum of its parts.
For many practitioners, the significance of the number 5 is well known. It is not surprising then that the original powers invoked in the Apocrypha are 5 aeons:
"This is the pentad of the aeons of the Father, which is the first man, the image of the invisible Spirit; it is the forethought, which Barbelo, and the thought, and the foreknowledge, and the indestructibility, and the eternal life, and the truth. This is the androgynous pentad of the aeons, which is the decad of the aeons, which is the Father."
This is, in all actuality, the guide of invocation, and the order in which the invocation should take place in order to create a thoughtform. Forethought, planning of the actual purpose of the form. Thought, consideration of all aspects of why and how. Foreknowledge, the wisdom of the ages that has been passed down to the practitioner allowing them to see why this thoughtform is necessary. Indestructibility, the purity of purpose that allows the creation of the thoughtform. Eternal life, the spiritual being of energy. Truth, the purpose made manifest in purity.
Now here is where it gets really interesting and very speicific (taken from the interpretation/translation of Frederick Wisse):
And grace belongs to the light-aeon Armozel, which is the first angel. And there are three other aeons with this aeon: grace, truth, and form. And the second light (is) Oriel, who has been placed over the second aeon. And there are three other aeons with him: conception, perception, and memory. And the third light is Daveithai, who has been placed over the third aeon. And there are three other aeons with him: understanding, love, and idea. And the fourth aeon was placed over the fourth light Eleleth. And there are three other aeons with him: perfection, peace, and wisdom. These are the four lights which attend the divine Autogenes, (and) these are the twelve aeons which attend the son of the mighty one, the Autogenes, the Christ, through the will and the gift of the invisible Spirit. And the twelve aeons belong to the son of the Autogenes. And all things were established by the will of the holy Spirit through the Autogenes.
Armozel is the first light aeon and with him he has three powers, or sub-angels Grace, Truth and Form.
Oriel is the second light aeon and he has three powers: Conception, Perception and Memory
Daveithai is the third light aeon and his three powers are: Understanding, Love and Idea.
Eleleth is the fourth light aeon and his powers are: Perfection, Peace, and Wisdom.
A quatrain of threes and invocations of powers by name which brings to us 12 powers and the name invocations associated with them. To any Celtic practitioner, this is a very very significant number/mathematical numerology and sound/sonic invocation. These names and invocations can be used to give your thoughtforms purpose according to their alignment, or if you are taking control of a thoughtform created in the manner and purpose of the Christian creation, these names give you power over them according to their alignment.
Next I'll cover the Christ figure, where he stands in this guide to invocation, his origin and what he created and ordered as well as the evil one, where he came from, where he dwells and what he created and why these things are significant and not to be adversaries but allies.
If nothing else, this should show the practitioner that our core beliefs are not so very different, and that the machinations are incredibly similar and can be a great helper in the quest for enlightenment/knowledge.

Why now?
For more than forty years I have lived in two worlds, one which I could only talk about to certain people, and one of matter and materialism. As a child, I saw and spoke with creatures that had no basis in the material, creatures my parents' teachings said were 'deceiptful and evil spirits' when I knew that they were not. I learned very early on not to talk about them. Their very existance, their good nature let me know that there was something wrong with the teachings, something fundamental. I could never quite put my finger on it until I finally began to read the Nag Hamaadi codices with a more tollerant and open mind.
In the past few months I have come to realize that the King James Bible is not at all what it is taught to be. It isn't just a text on a religious point of view, but an incredible spiritual guide to ritualistic high magic and the creation of thoughtforms and their application to the material world. For any with the eyes to see, and the open mind to comprehend, much lost knowledge to the spiritual realization of energy to matter is once more easy to obtain. This was brought even closer to home to me after reading the 'Gnosis' of creation.
Not only did this text point out the fundamental flaw with the King James texts, it also does some incredibly important vocalizations of powers that can be drawn upon during invokations and creations of thoughtforms. Rather than debate the religious connotations of the 'Gnosis' which are incredibly huge and turns the King James teachings on its head, I will examine what the 'Gnosis' teaches us about high magic and the incredible knowledge regarding spiritual matters that has been churning in my mind and spirit.
Before reading the 'Gnostic' scripts, I had already been on the path of reconciling what I knew to be truth with the King James texts, trying to find meaning in what has always been a point of conflict. I knew these texts to contain a large amount of historic parables and a deep view into spirituality, but it never really clicked until I backed off a few thousand feet and began to examine what makes the Christian religion so tantalizing to so many. I finally stumbled on why, it is the "Holy Spirit", and the connection to this spirit that is so tangible. So why is it tangible? The answer was so simple once I grasped it. It is a 'pure' thoughtform! This realization was slammed home when I first read the Gnosis! The creation of Sophia was the confirmation of how to create living thoughtforms who are programmed with a pure spiritual purpose! I had been taught these things within the context of my grandfather's traditions. His spirit has always been with me since he passed on, one of the irreconcilable beings of my childhood. Through his guidance and as I grew older I learned and grew and remembered. There were many people I met in my life that confirmed and deepened these teachings. One I will never forget and thank his spirit when I see him is the one who named himself "Damian MacTerra", or 'spiritual son of earth' who gave credence to the teachings of my grandfather's tradition, and spoke word for word what I had learned, himself being a descended son of traditional Scottish Druidism through his family passed father to son for generations. That we had never known each other, yet spoke together of such fundamental truths was the spark that grew these teachings within me to their fullest potential. I miss you my friend, but am glad when your soul finds its way back to me.
This is the other teaching missing from King James that is clearly in Gnosis, in that the soul can and does return from that which is invisible to the realms of matter and the flesh. This teaching has always been a base learning in all Celtic traditions, and most religions other than that taught by the King James following. Early Christians believed this as noted quite plainly in the Apocrypha of John (yup, John the Baptist wrote this text that was strangely left out of King James' version of reality). So why was this most basest truth left out? To know that is to realize where the King James' version came from. 12th century was a very bloody and ruthless period where men justified heinous acts via professing religion. The basis for creating this 'bible' of spiritual religion was for control and for justification hence the inspiration for this pairing down of the codices is rather suspect. It was an ingenious invention and inspiration of Yaltaboath. After reading Gnosis, it is quite plain which god inspired King James as the creator of man, 'the jealous and only god' named by the pure Sophia as 'The One Who Dwells in Ignorance and Darkness', Yaltaboath. If I have sparked your interests in these texts and their truths that have been kept from the world, part of my reason for this blog is complete. Enlightenment is the true purpose and there are many VERY enlightening things in the Gnostic texts.
So back to "Why Now"? It is the time for enlightenment and the truth. There is so much out there that obscures, it is time for them all to come together and realize that it is not about religion, but about spirituality and obtaining the ultimate enlightenment. To become a part of the "Mother-Father" creator while still bound to the fleshy beings of death created by Yaltaboath, yet given eternal life by the pure Sophia. What does that mean? These names are invokations of the highest order, the yin and yang of creation and that which is necessary to create thoughtforms that not only have pure purpose but can transcend from the invisible to the material.
I hope you enjoyed this introduction to my thoughts and inputs on this matter and I hope I have and continue to inspire you to search out your own enlightenment and truth.
