A Beginners Guide To Effective Sex Magick (c) FREEDATA, 1992. All rights wrong, all wrongs reserved. [Before we get started, I'd like to introduce myself. My handle around the 'net is Crying Harlequin and I'm a friend of FREEDATA's. He wrote this document, along with a long list of others, in the summer of '92. The day he handed me the disks containing his collected works, he asked a very simple, but strange favour. His only request was that I sit on the data and if ever he were to go missing, I should distribute it as quickly as possible, all over the world. I have not heard from FREEDATA in nearly two weeks, an oddity since we talked online nearly every day. So here they are, the collected works of FREEDATA. Don't go insane. C.H.] Introduction - Magick! Welcome, gentle reader, to the world of magick. Since you are reading this you fall into one of two categories. The first group are the people who have never encountered real magick, and are interested in trying thier hand at it. The second group are the experienced magi who would, inadvertantly, be examining this document with their professional eye. To those who fall into the first group, WELCOME! To those who fall into the second, FUCK OFF! Now then, lets get started shall we? Magick (yes magiCK) is the art of lying. It's the practice of decieving reality by imposing ones own will over everyone elses. Sound complicated. It is and it isn't. We don't practice 'raw' magick (see note at the end of this section), and as far as I know, raw magick is impossible. Instead, we take magick and give it a focus, something within the bounds of reality that can help us 'focus' our willpower on the magick and thus, create magickal effects. Confused yet? This particular document deals with the SEXUAL focus. Practicing magick through sex can be rewarding in many ways. It is known to improve one's sex life as it puts an emphasis on pleasure and lasting power. It is also known to produce powerful magicks, for a few very good reasons. You see, magick is based very much in feeling and emotion. The more powerful and focused the emotions of the caster, the more powerful the magicks, and what feeling is more powerful than the orgasm? What emotion overcomes the sexual urge? Get the point? So if this is your first trip into the realm of magick, you have chosen a vast focus which can take a lifetime to master. We will only touch on the basics in this document, but I do hope it is enough to whet your appetite. You can find more information on sex magick and magick in general in the 'occult' or the 'new age' section of your local book store, and of course there are always new FREEDATA documents floating around cyberspace, so look for them! You never know, something in here just might save your life! Or end it. [FREEDATA refers to RAW magick earlier in the introduction. Raw magick is only a theory really, but it refers to the intrisit ability for someone with enough willpower to effectively bend reality without a focus. Such a person would have god like powers to change any aspect of reality around him. The theory of raw magick is a battlefield where many different traditions of magick men and women fight with weapons of words. It is fairly obvious that FREEDATA believes in this theory. You will have to decide for yourself - C.H.] Part One - The Basics We will start at the logical place, the beginning. The basic ideas behind sex magick are little more than common sense, but sometimes the most obvious facts are the ones that are most hidden, so I will cover them none the less. Sex magick works on the age old premise that the difference between male and female is far more than the physical difference. Magi for centuries have known about the spiritual differences between the sexes, and many have learned of ways to draw upon that difference. The celtic druids felt that males and females were too oposite to work magick effectively together, so all druidic factions were separated, even to the point of seclusion of all female druids upon an island in the Irish sea. But not all magickal people believed so. Many thought of the innate power that comes from the opposite. They see the yin and yang as a cycle of power, yes opposite, but complimentary at the same time. Each side flows into the other, and neither side may exist alone. How does this relate to sex? Good question, let me look at my notes. Ah yes! If you think about sex (and I know all of you do), you think of many things. You might think of love, you might think of passion, but chances are you think of raw physical pleasure! But the act of sex goes way beyond even simple concepts like love. [This coming from a man who admited he didn't understand the meaning of the word "love" - C.H.] It goes deeper, into the power of the opposites coming together. It's no coincidence that the sexual act (no matter what your prefrence) is an intrusive act, where one body actually invades the other. The imagry is overwhelming, and so is the power. Think back to the last time you had sex. Do you remember how exhausted you were after you were done? Do you remember that thin sheen of sweat that covered your entire body, and the quickness of breath in your lungs? Of course you do. Yet it's a bit of an enigma, because you didn't really do that much work, did you? Where does all that energy go, and why is so much lost at the moment of orgasm? Good question, huh? The answer is simple. All that energy you just spent is waisted! You built up enough sexual energy, or 'mana' to knock over a building, and you let it drain away. It's like winning a million dollars and throwing it all out the window on the way home, and that just sucks! You need to learn how to harnes that natural and innate magickal power. With it you can accomplish amazing things. Part Two - A Lesson In Focus [The following is FREEDATA's instructions for sex magick as practiced with a single partner of the opposite sex. These instructions also make no refrence to the role of the partner during the casting, but part three does cover this. See part four for homosexual roles in sex magick. C.H.] Now that you know that sex provides a huge amount of magickal power for whatever you are using it for, you have to learn how to tapp into that power instead of letting it leak away. There are two very different approaches to this, depending on your sex. MALES - We'll start with you quite simply because yours is the easiest. Your sexual power comes at the moment JUST before you ejaculate. You know the feeling, don't you? When you know you're just about to orgasm and you grunt and groan and it feels like your mind is on FIRE. That's the mana in your soul, built up to bursting level. It is at that moment that you must release it to do your bidding, instead of shooting it into your lover. There are a few things you must do before you even begin having sex. First, you must gather your soul and cleanse your body. This allows for greater concentration and fewer screw-ups. Start by bathing for a good half-hour. Make sure everything is clean, right down to the crevice's. Don't put on any calogne or aftershafe, it gets in the way of things (besides, most brands STINK). After you are done bathing, sit in the nude on a flat and stable surface. It is your time to compose a telos. (I use the floor and sit on a small pillow). FEMALES - Your prep is a little more in depth. You, like the males, must be physically clean and mentally prepaired, but it is imperative that you include a few things in the bath. You should feel free to be creative with this part, as I've known many women with vastly differing taste who have all enjoyed amazing success. The bath must be scented in some way, but the perfumes must be ALL NATURAL, in that no industrial treated chemicals may be included. There are many hundreds of herbs that can be used to scent a bath, any number of which will do fine for this process. Like I said, it depends a lot on personal taste. If you are stuck for ideas, there are many excellent books published on the uses of herbs and roots. One such book might help you. After you complete your bath, which should last approximately half an hour, you should spend an amount of time alone, grooming yourself, prepairing for the encounter ahead. Your hair (if you have any) should be impecable, and everything should be in place. Do NOT WEAR MAKEUP. Feel free to admire yourself in the mirror, in fact, I recomend it. It helps build vital confidence in yourself, and such will be needed for the casting. It should be known also, that your sexual energy comes in two fold, which is why women generally enjoy more power from sex magick than men. First, you have an inner power, which is released at the time of orgasm. This power is far greater than that of a man's, which is one reason you may enjoy multiple orgasms. This is the most pure energy and is prefered over the second type. Your alternative source of energy comes from the man. When you are the soul practicioner in an encounter, the man will ejaculate his energy into you, which you may use to your advantage. This power is considerably less than your own natural power, and it is more difficult to wield properly as it resonates with the man's thoughts. There is a good use for this swapping of energy (see part three: cooperative magick). It is now your time to sit and meditate, and your time to compose a telos. Sex no longer plays a role in the interpritation of these instructions so the following is generic to both sexes. During the meditation the only thing you may wear are previously enchanted charms, wards, or talismans. It might help to burn some inscense. It is strongly recomended that you go without food for at least 12 hours before you begin, and it is manditory that you not take any drugs (legal or other), alcohol, or nicotine. These substances will cloud your mind and dull your will. During meditation, you should formulate your telos (the goal of the magicks you wish to preform) and concentrate on it, clearing your mind of everything save your telos. Once this idea consumes your psyche, you are prepaired. Before the effects of the meditation can wear off, begin intercourse. It is highly recomended that while you meditate, your partner begin stimulating your body, non-sexually at first, then as you go further into your telos, more and more erotically. This process is difficult to master and will require a lot of practice with a single partner, but is very rewarding. The sex should represent the mood of your telos. If your idea is one of revenge or anger, the sex should be hard and fast, very agressive in nature. This will saturate the mana with similar feelings and allow for a more natural conversion. On the other hand, if the telos is something good and tranquil, the sex will contain a lot of caressing and intercourse will be slow and pleasurable. You can probably guess which type of telos is more popular. When the time comes, and your mana is at it's peak, your mind should be so consumed with the telos as to reach a new level of conscienceness. The telos should become a real thing within your psyche, and you should watch as the sexual mana transforms the telos from an idea into reality. If you have accomplished the telos, you should be so extremely exhaused that you fall unconscience. When you awaken, your magick will have become a reality! [FREEDATA claims he's made this work many times. Although I will admit during the short fling him and I had together, he did fall asleep after sex, I'm not sure if it was because of some spectacular magickal effect. Men! They're all alike! I better shut up now, since it was my job to distribute these texts, not hack them apart! - C.H.] Part Three - Cooperative Magick Well, now you know the basics of sex magick and how to make them work for you. You also know that sex magick, if done properly, is one of the most powerful types of magick out there! But get this, there is a way to make it even MORE powerful. Yes, I know it's hard to believe, and I am also aware of the fact that this document is starting to sound like a cheap infomercial. Just hear me out. There is another way to tap directly into the opposing power of the sexes. I call it cooperative magick because that's really what it is! Just think about how much more power one could build up if BOTH partners were concentrating on the same telos! That's twice the power! It's also a little harder to do properly, but hey, this is sex magick we're talking about. It's always fun to practice! [Good point, FREEDATA. - C.H.] Cooperative sex magick requires all the same preparations as regular sex magick. Each partner should prepair in seclusion until the time of meditation arrives, at which point, the two sit nude, across from eachother and concentrate on the telos (which, by the way, is agreed upon before preps begin). Then the sexual act takes place, and let me tell you, the sexual energy that erupts during such an incounter is like nothing you've ever encountered before! The act should be prolonged as long as possible, with each partner holding back orgasm until the flood gates finally burst open. At this point, the male concentrates on the telos but does not allow his mana to make it a reality, instead he must visualize the telos flowing with his mana into the woman's vagina. This requires intese conscentration and is not an easy feat. The woman, on the other hand, must hold her orgasm back until her partner has ejaculated fully into her. She is then free to explode (fire?) at will. She must also visualize her telos as she did before, but this time, she must find the man's mana (which is resonating quite strongly with the telos) and mix it with hers. I find that it helps if the male partner masturbates his partner with his fingers, elongating and strengthening her orgasm as well as mixing the two fluids together. The woman has the hard job of using both partner's mana to make the telos a reality. With such a large amount of energy, the woman can often become overwhelmed, lose her conscentration, and waste the energy. Cooperative sex magick requires lots of practice by two experienced casters. It is my opinion that cooperative sex magick is among the top ranking magickal focus's when rating power. I've seen lives changed and people destroyed by professional sex magick, and the most amazing effects were always cooperative. You should definately try this! Part Four: Homosexual, and other alternative styles of Sex Magick I've done a lot of talking about the power inherit in the male-female difference. A lot of people are probably sitting somewhere reading this and saying, "Hey! I'm gay! What about me?" I have answers and I have questions. Granted, homosexuality is not my area of expertise, I do a few gays and I have come to some conclusions based on my ideas of the roles that sex plays in magick. Like I said before, feeling and emotion play a large role in sex magick, so if there is a lot of feeling between two partners of the same sex than it might be possible to generate effects. However, many of the basics of the sexual focus are derived from the friction between male and female mana. I have no idea what a lack of friction would do, if anything at all. It could be that mana of the same sex compliments itself, creating a different but usefull source of power. I can say little else about strictly gay sex magick. I can, however, make a few comments on other alternative sexual styles. If a man can transfer his mana through his semen into the woman, than is it no also possible for several men to transfer their power to the woman? I imagine this would be do-able, but the woman would need a nearly iron willpower to hold her orgasm back long enough for each man to build up his power and ejaculate. If such feat could be accomplished the power would be immense, the outcome of such an effect is nothing short of mind boggeling! I can also say a thing about sex with animals. Animals, though primitive in their emotions, contain a large amount of raw sexual energy which might be used by an experienced caster. I can't think of a way in which a man may tapp into this power, but a female could do it as if it were a regular partner. I have a feeling that some of the animals power would be lost because of its lack of conscentration and focus, but its sheer animal desire would more than make up for it. The female casters that I've spoken to generally agree that the best results come from either a dog or a horse. Animal sex is almost a seperate focus entirely but since it works on many of the same premises, it does fit into the sex magick category. You'll have to use personal judgment when deciding what is right for you. [As if we weren't going to anyway! - C.H.] Final Words Well, thats it. Then end of my quick guide to sex magick for beginners only. I hope you managed to glean something usefull from this bag of spelling and grammar errors. Please, feel free to print this out and show it to your friends. Show it to your lover, if for nothing else than to get a reaction. That is what I wrote it for. If you manage to find success in sex magick, more power to you. If you try it and nothing happens, perhaps you aren't the magickal type. I just hope you all have fun practicing. In conclusion, the world of magick is a vast one, filled with great mysteries and dark secrets. Tread carefully upon these new paths, for magick like the world we live in, is not forgiving of beginners. If you are cautious you may enjoy great happyness in this mystical world, and even if you choose not to believe, choose not to walk this path of wonder, I do hope that these words have brought a little fantasy into your life. We all need fantasy. - FREEDATA, July 1992 [Well, are you insane? If you liked this, there are tonnes more out there floating around the InterNet and on BBS's. Look for them. Read them. As for FREEDATA, I can only hope he shows up soon. Of course the government might have finally caught up with him over that LOCKHEED incident, but hey, we don't know anything about that, do we. It's been great. Cee-ya on the 'net. -Crying Harlequin (netbabe)] {this document may be copied and distributed freely, as long as its contents remain intact} - FREEDATA
