[Opinion] The Magick of Breathing

[OberonFromTheHills]

After reading the work of Franz Bardon, Jason Miller, Damien Echols, Ray Buckland, Jason Augustus Newcomb, Donald Tyson and Tylluan Penry about the subject, i decide to give a try and use my breathe as channel.

The idea is create a link between the different stage of magick using your breath as main tool.

When you breathe in, you attract the power at you and you give it a container/a limit.

When you you breathe out, you communicate with it and you direct it to your goal.

Think of anything : love, money, attraction, joy.... Breathe in : think of one of those things feel/look/taste like to you. Breathe out : send a call to this power.

Breathe again and concentrate this power with in you.

Breathe again, think of your intent/goal/target and DIRECT the power towards it on the exhale.

The success of this technique is when your breathe manage to feed your target/goal with the power. Like a glass of water you would fill up.

This sounds beautifully accessible! I'm giving this a try, and setting a reminder to report back after sennight or so!

Do I use this? Oh right, I do, when I drain negative energy from the space, knowing it to be successful when the space becomes more empty. Good idea. I would add that it is better to breathe naturaly, though I definitely take deep breaths and I take pauses when I need to rebalance my breathing. It's no problem when I take pauses for my body to get breath back to normal. Normal natural breathing feels so ineffective to me, maybe because it is normal.

But when breathing energy into something, even being it an intent, how would it feel when it is properly charged? Really don't know honestly.

Use word of power of the related objective can work, like venus or jupiter while breath out

If I understand correctly I would use "Elohim Gebor" for Geburah if my objective was protection?

In Christian terms the Holy Spirit is sometimes considered "the breath of God". It's really the only part of the Trinity I connect with at all.

Indeed, breathing techniques or the practice of pranayama are quite comprehensive and highly recommended. Through them, you can work with both visualization, as you mentioned, and with the manipulation of qi and the elements.

I remember a time when I was quite focused on a pranayama technique called Tummo, practiced by Buddhist monks. It centers on the manipulation of the fire element through breathing. You can actually raise your body temperature in cold climates, avoid feeling cold, and even prevent illness.

Therefore, these techniques, aside from their esoteric aspects, also deliver clear and fully verifiable physical results.

This is my breath is important in magick. It's a movement itself.
