Re: The Psychomantium
Mona, please take a close look at what you had stated and what is in bold. How do you have some ideas of what to expect? From where or who? What is your source?
Have you read this by Laura, in The Wave, Chapter XXIX Stripped to the Bone or The Shamanic Initiation of the The Knighted Ones: Technicians of Ecstasy part 2
Perhaps you are sidestepping and appeasing about your use and dabbling with the psychomantium because the responses you've received are not what you wanted to hear? Please consider this.
There you go, in a nutshell stated by Rx.
Mona, in light of this thread about the psychomantium and mirrors and mirroring which could lead to a new thread about the meaning of mirrors both literally and figuratively, I researched here at the Cass forum about mirrors. I found something to share for possible consideration as to what you stated in an earlier post:
Mona, truly, why and what is your strong interest in the psychomantium? Take care.
I'm only posting here a shortened version snipped, and can be read in its entirety in the post cited.
Mona said:Because this is the first time for me actually using the psychomantium I have some ideas of what to expect, but once again, so far I have not seen anything in the mirror.

Mona said:I thank everyone for your replies to my questions about the psychomantium, I will definitely do more research on it expecially now that I have been told that where I am living may not be healthy for me.I need to get a book by Tom Lethbridge and I will see where this will lead me. I may be a little stubborn but I seriously am taking your advice seriously. For now I will not experience with the psychomantiu. Thanks

Rx said:Here's a question that occurred to me while reading through these posts:
Even if you are a Shaman and thought yourself to be relatively "clean" spiritually and psychologically, is the psychomantium even necessary then? Is it a necessary part of the shamanic experience? Because it seems to me that if you read enough of other second hand accounts, that should suffice (ie. I know of others who have burnt their hands touching the hot stove to not need to do it myself) I guess what I'm wondering is what the potential benefit of it would be compared to sticking with the EE program.

Mona said:There are many reasons why I want to experience the psychomantium, Anart. I have had a lot of strange experiences happen to me throughout my life and I just want to find out what those experiences meant. Just experiencing them and not understanding is not safisfactory for me. I read about the psychomantium tool about 15 years ago; my aunt gave me a book, in the Slovak language, written by Dr. Moody. At that time I had no need to experiment with it, all I wanted to do was just to read as much about it. Also, the many strange (misunderstood)experiences I had, and which I also shared with other people, were not taken seriously. And I have a deep-down need to understand them, that's all. I don't know anybody, in flesh and blood, with whom I could explore this other world with in real life, and psychomantium sounds like something I can use by myself. I don't fear using this tool at all and waiting for someone to show up in my life with the same interest in understanding the unknown is out of the question. I don't want to rely on that kind of illusion. The use of a board is out of the question because I would need a partner to do it with.
Mona, truly, why and what is your strong interest in the psychomantium? Take care.

Lilith to the lynx-eyed
For International Women's day
by Azadeh Azad
07-Mar-2008
Holding an armful of lilies
I fly out of the Garden of Eden alone at night to the light
of my own devising, squalling away in a glare, leaving
damned Adam of eye-whites red behind, as the moon soars
on my silvery wings.
I am Lilith, Leila, Lulu,
nocturnal spirit of desert wind, seditious soul
of cosmic split, an outlaw who would not submit.
Can you see yourself in my insolent eyes?
<snip>
I am Lilith, Leila, Lulu,
no man’s mothersisterdaughterwife; life of altering roles,
meta-fisted storm of three souls: one behind mirrors,
one in the underworld, one within your wanton wit.
Can you see yourself in my insolent eyes?
