Why do we focus on specialization when teaching magic? Specialization is associated with egregor. And it is connected with certain structures of consciousness. The specialization itself is a set of specific information blocks. These blocks can be broken down into a database (a set of knowledge) and specific skills (experience). If you tune into a person’s consciousness and examine him with the third eye, you will get a certain volume filled with a pattern. And this pattern, it has certain properties. Firstly, it can be completed and unfinished. That is, we can talk about finished and unfinished structures. Completed - they are closed, the energy inside them circulates as in a system. And they give off a feeling of beauty. Secondly, this pattern has a certain color - a frequency response. It is associated with caste. And thirdly, this pattern, it has an external exit, it stretches into some kind of egregor - into an external energy structure associated with the genius of the Earth, with planetary consciousness. And the completed patterns open the entrance to the egregor for a person. This thing is called a guild key. The guild key gives you the feeling of being someone.
Every magician is a specialist, and he is the one who makes decisions, who is responsible for something. The magician aligns people with his position; he fixes the world to some extent with his assemblage point. He is the one who is responsible for something. People all the time face some difficulties in life, and they immediately remember: who is the specialist, who can do something? A specialist is someone who can do something, he has fixation - confidence that he can. But he has this confidence, it falls within a certain narrow range. A magician is like an expert in life. He understands what is happening here, and based on this, he can somehow direct. But then the magician also develops some kind of narrow specialization. Globally, we are talking about three directions - about the opportunity to work in society with situations, about working with space as such, and about the body as space. And the magician, with his consciousness, explores a specific area related to his interest, and learns something there. And he can do something within the framework of his specialization. And specialization betrays a certain way of life.
People also have specializations, but they are associated with some kind of behavior of the body. And their way of life is connected with the fact that they need to go and do something with their body. And this gives a certain fixation of the assemblage point. Gives a certain picture of the world. Specializations of people are associated with four types of structures: red - when the consciousness tries to do something specifically with the body, chop with an ax, throw a stick. Orange - when consciousness learns to grab people’s attention and create attunement with them, to form a communication channel for the exchange of information. Yellow - when consciousness learns to use will as a tool to control the body. And yellow-green - when consciousness uses intuition to sense information and realize it - here a person learns to think. But then there are structures associated with behavior outside the body. The green structure is associated with the use of intuition as a skill, intuition here becomes a tool for work. Blue - associated with the construction of thought forms that can directly influence the world. Blue is already work in the chains of the system, here there is access to magical society, to Magonia. And violet structures are the highest frequency, they are tied to planetary processes and are associated with the Patron, with the deity.
Specialization is formed precisely at the level of the Divine. Remember that ancient ideas about gods say that each of them has some kind of specialization? Initially, every magician is a creature of Mahonia, he is specialized like a brain cell. He is part of the planetary mind, and he performs some function there. The description that people give to the gods about what functions they perform is all some kind of analogy, a description from the side of people. In reality, everything is different there. God is an egregor. You and I, I think, after we complete the work with the minor arcana from 2 to 10, we will go through Mahonia so that you can imagine what it is. Now I can say that this world is not the same as ours, its very nature is different. And those who live there are not people in our understanding. If we take Valt, then he is somehow close to our world, he is the one who controls the egregors. The rest are very far from us. The picture of the world there is not the same as ours. Let's say they don't have such concepts as a spoon, a sandwich, or even a city. There is something there that we can compare by analogy with our spoon and sandwich, but it will still be an analogy. These creatures, they do not perceive our world the way we do. They are mainly focused on building external behavior in relation to the Genius of the Earth. Somehow they are aware of the inner world of the Earth, in much the same way as we are aware of our intestines, lungs, heart. But for us, the intestines are just a certain part of the body. We feel it only when something is being digested there, and we feel it precisely as an element of the body. Those who are in Magonia, they feel what we have in approximately the same way. They perceive some city or major process as an element of the genius of the Earth. Moreover, everyone perceives from the side of their element. And they don’t see the city as such and they don’t see the people in it either, just like you don’t feel the cells of your intestines, although they are there, but you don’t separate them out. The scale on which the gods are located is different.
And they control planetary processes on their scale. And everyone there has their own function. And we, yes, can somehow describe it from our side, and then we get all sorts of gods of war, agriculture and other things. They, of course, do not perceive themselves there, and their functions are much broader than we can see from here. This is called hierarchy. And high-level magicians work with the hierarchy, when they need to do something serious within the planet, when their own strength is not enough, they contact the hierarchy. They don’t call her for trifles, when you need a new car or you run out of gas. It’s like calling the president when you’re out of candy in the store to sort out the issue.
So, gods, yes, they have specialization. And we usually talk about 12 options. But your Patron is a creature that is built in Magonia; at some point he also begins to specialize. And any work with magic is one way or another working with the Patron. Inevitably, when you learn to do something with your consciousness, you end up with some specializations. And in Magonia you seem to be approaching one clan of elements and, within the clan, some kind of specialization. Hence they say that some gods are closer to you than others. And then you do something here in this world, but you do it as a student. Cards from 2 MA to 10 MA describe the path of the adept - the path of the student in this world. And the pictures of the minor arcana, they do not describe the path, they describe the hierarchy. By developing specialization, you find yourself in a certain egregor. All the magicians who have ever worked within this specialization have left some kind of mark here. And the egregor is filled with such traces. When you have formed a similar trace in yourself, learned something within the framework of specialization, say, you have learned to treat people or influence situations, or create the structure of an agreement, you enter the egregor. And then you feel like someone. You feel like a healer, say, if you specialize in studying the workings of living organisms, or a battle mage if you specialize in working with situations. Or do you feel like a wizard if you work with a contract, with the creation of artifacts. And this identification, it gives a certain position in life. This is not an imaginary value, this is precisely a way of life, this is a profession. And it is important to develop this position in order to become a magician, in order to fixate on the magical level. This is a way to live, working not with the body, but with the mind. And this is the most difficult thing.
We have quite a lot of people come to the school of magic, but there are really few specialists. I mean specifically those who live like a magician. Imagine a mover who thinks he is a surgeon. He can think whatever he wants about himself - what matters is what he actually is. Specialization is not a conditional value, but rather specific. When you start to develop it, people feel it and react to you somehow. Let's say, if you went to train as a healer, then you will be fed up with requests to “heal.” And if you are forming as a wizard, then they will pester you: “Make me, give me this thing that you made.” If you are being trained as a battle magician, then you will have to solve different situations and work with egregors. And in our school these things are clearly outlined as the path of development. These are clear goals. At first, you develop sensitivity and elemental shifts, then you specialize—you learn something as part of working with your consciousness. Then the depth goes into specialization.
Moving from 2 to 10, you develop more and more such structures in consciousness from the green to the blue range. And in the end you are with some kind of guild. At the top, the guild is connected with Mahonia, with the gods, here it is projected in the form of a kind of vertical channel. And by entering the channel, you have a connection with the hierarchy. And somehow Mahonia perceives you, the gods somehow see you. But they see you precisely as students. And somehow they help you, based on the fact that you are in the same channel with them. As you learn something, they begin to involve you in some way in their work. It is not necessary that some god personally singled you out and gave you a task (although this sometimes happens). But usually you just come across a key program that is currently running in the guild. Somehow, based on where you are, you perceive and implement this program. Moreover, everyone in their place does it in their own way. But the program is the only one at the top. Moreover, it happens that two magicians, implementing a program in different parts of the Earth, perceive each other as part of some kind of confrontation. They are doing something. And at the top it turns out that this is one program that is simply projected here. An example could be that a person is about to run, and breathing and heart are activated, and digestion is suppressed. And one zone needs to be promoted and the other suppressed. And then we got together for dinner - and everything was the other way around. Also, at the planetary level, some command has gone out, and one zone is being put under pressure, others are being promoted within the framework of this command. But in these zones there are people and magicians who somehow perceive what is happening from their position. The gods are doing something there, and this is reflected in our world in the form of some kind of processes, but it is precisely reflected that for them they are doing something completely different there.
This work with specialization is important in magic. It is she who ultimately makes a magician out of a person. Within the framework of this work, you gradually become fixed in the position of a specialist in something. At the same time, we are not talking about some kind of formal position in society. We are talking about real interaction at the level of consciousness. Specialization is associated with the development of level 4.2. With access to the second level of magic. And it gives a stable position of the assemblage point. Something in the world begins to depend on you, on your consciousness. Through specialization there is a connection with the hierarchy and a transition from the peripheral nervous system to the central one. This is where the management of the Earth’s body begins. Actually, what we call magic.
We have now launched two cycles - through the minor arcana from 2 to 10, and then, apparently, we will also go through Magonia. And at the same time, we are looking at all possible options for specializations within the framework of working with magical orders. Magical orders are precisely the activities that are associated with Mahonia. And we are looking at different options for specializations so that you get some traces, get an idea about it and look at some resonances for yourself. Thus, you somehow become involved in the society of magicians, begin to feel and see it, and come into contact with it.
We have finished the orders of battle mages and are now starting the orders of healers. It turns out that there will be 16 orders within 4 small guilds. Then we'll go through some more wizards. And you will have such a powerful, comprehensive picture of the world of magicians. A good basis for somehow getting involved in magical activities and understanding what your place might be in all of this.
We will finish all this with you at the turn of 26-27. And there the current main course will end, and we will draw a certain line with you. The school will just be 5 years old. And by this time it must complete the process of forming the core and the general basic contour. And you and I have been developing this core for 5 years, and then I plan that it will begin to work actively outside and some specializations will begin to emerge in it. And a new stage of the school’s work will begin. Big, exciting and interesting.
