There has to be a formal clarification of certain subjects in Zevism so that everyone here knows exactly the path that we are set upon. Knowing this path exactly for what it is, can give a sense of solace, peace and promote wellbeing in one's approach to the path.
Magick and Meditation are two things which are essentially one thing; yet they affect your existence differently. Both as a soul and as a human being, you carry a subset of karmic and other carryovers, that you carry from numerous sources. As I have explained before, it is known that the body and the soul, or the family line, have their own Karma. We also have social karma that comes from our Nation and so on.
The above, is nothing else but the law of the universe of cause and effect. For the above topic, I have written a long time ago, in the karma series. I will clarify and explain more things as time goes, but the point of this message is another.
In this topic I want to clarify what you should expect from Magick and what from Meditation where your life changing is concerned.
When we do meditation, we essentially go into the root of our soul and everything else, where the basic configurations of our soul do reside. In there, cleansing, empowerment and so on, do have another effects which can change your karmic and other residual forces that make your life and existence as they are.
Therefore, to make magnified changes, workings much be done in the form of a repetitive way, like a meditation is to be done, in order to manifest themselves and cement themselves by causing inside you the necessary energetic changes.
Magick, on the other hand, is a form of expression of the will outwards. It certainly affects you, but it's adobe of action is the limit of the above karmic forces in your life. To basically explain this, let's say you want a partner. Magick will work in accordance to it's programming, to bring a desired change, but within the context of your soul. In rare cases or where magick is directed by other people, it can alter the above, but to do this, a lot of power is needed.
Lastly, intervention from the Gods or higher beings, because of the very nature of their power and their own level, they can affect you in a wholly different manner, which might not always be within the confine of the above situations. However, even this help, cannot fully alter your destiny or your fate completely if you are not trying it.
Depending on the power of these forces, they can alter fate. The Gods can do this, but they do so for rare considerations, or because one is already on such deserving trajectory. "Deserving" here is not as much moral as it is where you are at on your development.
Changing fate completely is a task that only you can do, yet, serious effects from other beings can really mean the world where it comes to this application. That's one of the reasons we do Group Rituals. Clearly, a group Ritual is not going to change your existence wholly if you don't do anything, yet, if you also walk your own path decidedly, these powers can come from behind you and propel you like a ship in an open sea. But you have to be on the sea and to be an active sailor to see the full power of these things, a personal responsibility.
Years ago, with HPS Pythia we were working on healing for a Zevist who had a very serious eye related ailment. We were doing work and it manifested in bettering their situation, then, the opportunity for surgery appeared on a major discount like minus 75%, on a very good hospital. They did the surgery, regained their eyesight, and it was all paid for and good. The person still had to do certain things to fix this condition, because of the forces explained above.
Finally, when you do workings and meditation to change certain things, these act on everything in you, causing a series of changes on all of these levels. Thats one of the primary reasons why there is always a lag time and waiting needed in order to get certain goals. The less the resistance, the better the outcomes and more direct.
Affirmations being specific, is important here, such as in the "most positive way for me" and so on. Magick done recklessly, can yield certain results, but they are not guaranteed to be safe.
The two above forces or magick and meditation, are supposed to be connected and united, in order for you to bring your life under proper order and grant yourself your wishes or to overcome your obstacles in life.
Neither must be mistaken for hocus pocus nonsense, and they are always limited by the power of those involved, including your own power. The power you have, is decided by meditation and meditation is supposed to increase and empower the baseline upon which you build everything that you do as a magickal operation.
Finally, both of these forces, can help you alter your own fate and make you a person of your own choice and destiny, free from the compulsive situation of being enforced into everything by fate; but this takes time.
