A Psychic Journey: Skrying Amissio

“Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.”

Amissio is the second Geomantic figure and corresponds to Taurus, Venus and Earth. The nature of the symbol is loss, this may include not only material things, but all kinds of loss soever, thus it may indicate the impermanence of life also.

The Vision:

First, I saw two dogs fighting over food, then the vision became clearer, and I was standing at the entrance of a palace with a long corridor in front of me, also, the palace was entirely made of gold. Two rows of guards walked towards me, and a king followed, the king then took a golden crown off of his head and placed it on a large wooden table in front of him and walked away. He was giving up his kingship and after the king had gone, the guards started fighting over the crown in the same way as the dogs were fighting over the food at the start of the vision. At once I saw myself sitting on a big rock in springtime, I was sitting in a field of sun flowers, then the figure of me peacefully laid down and died. After I saw myself dying, I saw people dancing frantically at night, around a large fire, they were burning up their belongings, which they threw with great joy into the fire. Then it was Autum, I was standing in a forest watching the leaves as they fell from the trees. Then I felt myself, I felt the cold wind on my body and as I looked down at myself, I was standing naked in the middle of an empty forest. That’s when a great fire swept over the forest burning up all the plants and trees, which left me standing naked in the middle of nowhere and surrounded by nothing. At once I was surrounded by golden objects, there were scepters and goblets and crowns, they all seemed remarkably valuable. As I picked up these objects, they disappeared while I was holding them, turning to ash and falling from my hands. This carried on until I was confronted by a little girl, she was very strange looking, in fact, she may not have been a girl at all, her facial features were exaggerated, and her appearance was almost frightening. However, her demeanor was kind and she seemed quite pleasant. She asked me, “do you see the change? and then, before I could answer, she said, “you haven’t changed. After my encounter with the little girl, I ended the vision.

“Love is the law, love under will.”

A Psychic Journey: Skrying Puer

 

A Psychic Journey: Skrying Puer

“Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.”

Puer is the first Geomantic figure and corresponds to Aries and Fire. The figure indicates not being able to adapt to circumstances, as being either the result of inexperience or immaturity. Although Puer is a favorable omen in matters of conflict and sex, it usually indicates the need to reevaluate one’s current perspective and for compromise.

The Vision:

I saw a young boy playing with a stick, as if it was a sword. I was walking in mud, the boy was hitting and attacking objects with his stick as if waging an imaginary war against nature, beating the rocks and the plants, and giggling for lack of a better word and rather joyfully every time he launched an attack. Every time the image of the boy became clear, he would shine, there was at these intervals golden rays of light that emanated from his body. As the light dissipated and he returned to normal, he was bright yellow, and boyish and rugged. His behavior was extremely immature and not well thought out, he was just acting on impulse, or pure instinct. The vision took place in a lush jungle, the plants seemed prehistoric, with enormous, thick leaves and moss-covered tree bark. There were crows above us flying in circles and then crystals rose from out the mud forming a wall and a place for the crows to perch upon. The crows started violently engaging with each other, with each crow trying to chase the others off of the crystal pillars, even tearing each-other's flesh as they fought. The boy kept repeating “I am unique, I am strong” while playing with his weapon. Nearing the end of the vision, I saw another spirit, who confronted me, deliberately stealing my attention. I asked this new spirit about the mud, and he said, “it is from all the rain., Taken aback by the spirit’s response, I tested him to see if he was in the right place, and as I suspected, the sigil made him disappear. Then I saw the boy again, sulking, telling me he also wants the rain but there is only fire where we are. He stood up and fire manifested from his palms, which he was holding upwards to face the sky. Then he pointed at a giant volcano, the volcano was busy erupting and there were great big fireballs being shot into the air from its mouth. The sky was black, I saw a fireball shooting towards me, and then it started moving from side to side burning up everything, the manner in which it moved was controlled and in contrast to the way in which the fireballs moved that were expelled from the volcano, which was violent and chaotic. Although, the fire caused by the fireball was extremely violent burning up everything it came in contact with. The boy appeared from out of the flames, he kneeled before me in the way a knight might do, presenting a sword to me, which he held with both hands. Then he lost his temper and rushed at me with the sword, screaming in anger, it looked as if the boy wanted to stab me in my neck. However, as he got close to me, he instantly changed his direction and jumped and screamed, running back and forth across the jungle, which had returned to its original condition before it was burnt. He said: “I always have to keep quiet, I want to fight”. Then I was dragged by a tremendous force to another place, there were axes chopping giant pieces of lumber, there was nobody holding them, they just moved violently up and down on their own. At this point the vision became too chaotic to concentrate and I ended it.

“Love is the law, love under will.”
